Chapter 145
The ox cart stopped steadily at the door of the small courtyard of the blue tile and white wall courtyard in the second room of the Li family, and after Li Cui's and Li Junran got off the ox cart, the old man who drove the ox cart drove in the direction of his house.
Li Junran remembered that the Li family had two ploughing cows, one large and one small, in the second room, if it weren't for his father Li Zhengming who couldn't get out, Li Cui's wouldn't have to take the ox cart of others to the town. Fortunately, the fare here is not high, adults pay two cents a trip, children are half price, if you buy more things, you also have to charge money. But even if it was just a few copper plates, when Li Xu's family went to Chengfu to see Xiao Qiliu every month for more than a year, he was reluctant to come out.
Thinking of this, Li Junran's heart was a little uncomfortable. If it weren't for the three mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law of Li Xiaofeng's mother-in-law in the fourth room of the Li family, why wouldn't their own mother-in-law be able to keep the child and still lie in bed now?
"Liu'er, what are you looking at?" Li Cuishi, who was about to push the door into the courtyard, saw that Li Junran was still standing in place, staring blankly at the back of the old grandson who was getting farther and farther away, and couldn't help but sigh, "Hey, the old grandson is also a poor person." β
"Ahh Li Junran was stunned for a moment. The one who drove the car was the old man surnamed Sun, and Li Junran went back to Li's house to take Aunt Mihua's car, and he had also met in a hurry on the road. Listening to Aunt Mi Hua, the old grandson's home is the same as Aunt Zhang who just met, and it is also at the west entrance of the village. There is also a little grandson who suffers from cough disease at home, and the grandparents have been dependent on each other for many years. Every fifteenth day of the market, the old grandson will drive his ox cart to earn some money on oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
As Li Cuishi sighed, the old grandson is indeed a poor man, and his daughter-in-law fell ill at a young age, leaving a son who has not yet been weaned. is a father and a mother, and finally pulls his son up. married a daughter-in-law and had a little grandson. Who would have thought that Pishi's little grandson would go down to the river to play in the water that summer, and ended up taking his son's life into it. Although the little grandson was saved. But he broke his body, and the decoction did not leave his hand after that. The daughter-in-law couldn't stand it and ran away with someone......
on this. Li Junran was also embarrassed. In fact, such a tragedy happens every year, whether it is on the side of the Apocalypse Dynasty or in the modern era that has never been crossed. It's already a clichΓ©, but it's been banned repeatedly. Especially on the side of the Apocalypse, adults have to work in the fields every day, and the babies at home are mostly stocked, and the half-grown children take smaller children to help the family work, or go out to cut grass and collect firewood. It's hard to think of anything.
Just as Li Junran was distracted, Li Zhengming, who was chopping wood in the courtyard, heard the sound from outside the courtyard, hurriedly put down the axe in his hand, and opened the courtyard door. When Li Zhengming saw Li Junran standing outside the courtyard gate in a daze, he was very surprised.
"Liu'er?"
"Uh, Dad." Li Junran, who came back to his senses, called Li Zhengming.
"Mingzi, what's the matter, you only see your daughter." Li Cuishi on the side deliberately made a tiger face, looking very unhappy.
"Where. How can you, mother. Li Zhengming hurriedly stepped forward to take the bamboo basket that Li Cui's straddled on his wrist, and just took it. was taken aback by the weight of the bamboo basket, "Mother, what did you buy?" This is ...... weight"
"Didn't buy anything. It's just some pork and bones. Li Cuishi waved his hand and rejected Li Zhengming's kindness. Carrying a bamboo basket and going directly into the yard, "It's not your daughter who said what to do......
"Grandma. Wonton noodles. β
"Yes, yes, it's the wonton noodles."
Although his daughter's character as a father is not as clear as her own mother, she also knows a little. In Li Zhengming's opinion, although the Liu Er in front of him is a little timid, he is also capable. At a young age, he was not able to walk, so he was forced to learn to burn a fire. As for the current one...... There was no trace of timidity on his body, and he didn't look like an eight-year-old child at all, he should be capable. But when it comes to cooking...... Li Zhengming really doesn't have much confidence.
"Liu'er, that ......"
"Dad, just look at it. I promise to let you, and grandma and mother want a second bowl after eating one bowl. Li Junran didn't wait for his father to speak, and after stuffing the bag of refined white flour in his hand into his arms, he ran into the west wing.
"Mother, Liu'er is back to see you."
It didn't take long for a whisper to come from the West Wing.
Li Zhengming looked back at Li Cuishi a little helplessly, and Li Cuishi returned a comforting smile.
"Since Liu Er has said so, Mingzi, let's try your new girl's craftsmanship."
"Hey." Li Zhengming didn't dwell on it any longer.
This wonton noodle making is a bit cumbersome, and it is obviously impossible to get out at noon. However, if you want the noodles to be strong, you have to press them with a wooden stick. This point, Li Junran, who has a small body, obviously can't do it. However, this little problem obviously can't help Li Junran, the ready-made coolie's own father Li Zhengming is not right next to him.
After Li Zhengming took a lot of effort to process the dough, Li Junran not only prepared the filling of the wontons, but also wrapped them into beautiful wontons, and even the bone broth was boiled. The dough is made of thin noodles, and after the bone broth is boiled, the wontons are added, and the vegetables are put ...... All the steps seem to have been practiced hundreds or thousands of times in advance, and they are extremely proficient.
When the small kitchen was filled with the tempting fragrance of food, Li Xu, who was sitting on the bed in the west wing, couldn't help but sniff and let out an exclamation: "It's so fragrant." Brother Ming, I'm hungry. β
"It's really good."
"Come on." Before Li Zhengming's words fell, Li Junran hurriedly ran in with a big bowl of wonton noodles, "Mother, you try Liu'er's craftsmanship first." β
"Hey." Li Xu's face was not only haggard but also a little pale, but his spirit was much better than it was in the morning. Can you not be refreshed, after Li Junran returned to the Li family, he immediately let Li Xu drink a large glass of good water produced by the manor. If it weren't for the fear that the effect would be too obvious and scare people, she would have wanted to drop two more drops of that dew into the water.
Li Xu took a shallow taste, and the delicious taste immediately conquered Li Xu's taste buds.
"Mother, eat slowly. Beware of burning. Seeing that Li Xu was eating so happily, Li Junran was also very happy.
"Hui Niang, is it really that delicious?" Although Li Zhengming participated in the making of noodles, Li Zhengming still did not have much confidence in the craftsmanship of his new daughter. How can a little girl who can't even make a fire make people believe that she can cook?
"Dad, how can you not have any confidence in Liu'er. It's too much. Li Junran shouted angrily.
"Yes, yes, Daddy was wrong. Liu Er is the most capable. Li Zhengming looked at his pouting little daughter, his eyes were a little moist, and when he saw that Li Junran's white and red little face was still stained with flour, he reached out and carefully wiped off the flour, for fear that his rough hands would hurt his little daughter's delicate little face.
