Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Gift

Lin Yunlin was naturally happy. I went to the capital for more than ten days, I ate enough every day, and I also went to the restaurant.

When I got home, I found the food hard to swallow.

The Kouniang plundered from the second uncle's house was not enough at all, and the fine grain was left for the men to eat, and they could only eat the cheapest sorghum noodles and millet noodles that their grandmother bought in the town at this time. With pickled pickles, which are much worse than those of the second aunt's house, they are salty and astringent, and they can spit out sour water when they eat.

Lin Yunlin Duo held the rice bowl, looked at the layer of lard floating on his wrist, his saliva immediately overflowed, and he sat down and ate it in a big gulp.

Lin Zhu went to give Cai Er, who couldn't come to eat and only worked.

After eating, Lin Yun and Lin Duo urged Cai Er Niangzi to go to the house to make clothes, and Lin Zhu took them into the vegetable garden.

Cai Er brought the water up, and Lin Yun Lin Duo carried it into the vegetable field with a flat pole, and Lin Shu followed behind, making a gesture of holding a hand from time to time, and commanding them: "Here, here,......。 ”

The two little girls, their hearts were hot, and they were coaxed by Lin Zhu to say some good things from time to time, and the speed was much faster.

Although Caiji also feels sorry for his two nieces, it does speed up a lot.

In addition, all his hard-earned money has raised the two of them, so it is also appropriate to think about it.

The three women were talking and laughing in the vegetable field, and they did less than half of it in half a day.

It's almost over, and the sun is slowly rising. The two women were also a little tired, Lin Zhu said: "Dad, let's go here today, let's go wash up, eldest sister and second sister, you rest, I'll cook." ”

Caiji nodded. He saw it very clearly. During the whole labor process, her daughter only used her mouth but did not use her hands, and she did not make any effort. But the two nieces did their work and helped.

Lin Zhu took Lin Yunlin out of the vegetable patch, scooped water and washed his hands. Just go to the kitchen.

Seeing that there were still black-flour steamed buns, I went to the vegetable cellar and brought a pot of well-preserved, unsprouted potatoes, radish, dried vegetables, and looked at the eggs in the hanging basket. I thought about it. Didn't take it out. ‘

It stands to reason that they work for nothing, and they have to cook something delicious. But these eggs are from the Lin Zhang family, if they are given to eat. In case it is reported later. That's miserable.

She peeled the potatoes and cut them into slices. The radish and cabbage are also cut into slices, and the dried beans and dried gourd strips are cut into sections.

Then the pepper noodles and pepper noodles are added, both of which are homegrown in the garden. The taste is pure. Serve with some other spices and pour with boiling lard. made a large pot of fragrant spicy tang.

Although there is no sesame oil and no monosodium glutamate chicken essence, it is also delicious.

A few people didn't know what Lin Shu was doing, thinking that it was because she didn't do anything, and she didn't know how to do it, so she made do it randomly.

They all gathered around to eat, and it turned out to be a taste of food. All of them sucked in their mouths, and their foreheads were hot with sweat.

Then I heard the big yellow dog pop out of the kennel and bark like crazy, as if the flesh and bones were calling. Several people looked over together, the door was pushed open, and Dabao, who was eyed by the rat, hurriedly walked in, threw a meat bone to the big yellow dog as he walked, and roared like an old cow in a voice changing voice: "Second Uncle Lin, aunt Zhu'er, I'm back!" Childe asked me to pass on a message, Ming'er, our son-in-law, Jin Gongzi, Young Master Jin is going to Qingfeng Mountain to fly a kite, please Second Uncle Lin must tie the paper kite, and Zhu'er will also go. ”

After saying that, he sat down with a big grin, took the chopsticks handed over by the second lady and ate it, and said while eating: "It's delicious, spicy and spicy, comfortable." You don't know, these days Gongzi and I are in Dingyuan, and there are big fish and meat every day, most of which are beef and mutton, and the mouth of the food is wooden. Later, I couldn't taste anything, I always felt that there was a smell of sheep on my body after I came back, I washed it a few times last night, and I still think it smells today. Isn't it fishy and fatty? ”

Dabao sat next to Lin Zhu and raised his arm to let Lin Zhu smell.

Lin Shu squinted his eyes and looked at Dabao, is this showing off in disguise or temptation? You know, it's not easy for them to eat meat.

She snorted symbolically, where there was any smell of mutton, it was a faint fragrance, as if it was some kind of incense. It seems that he has already scented his clothes.

smiled and said: "Brother Dabao, where is the smell, it is fragrant like a sachet." Brother Dabao, you are tired of eating big fish and meat in Dingyuan, and you won't bring back a little bit to us poor people who can't eat meat. In other words, it must be big or not, what good things are there? Did you bring us some back. ”

"Big, about the same size as Qin An, it seems to be more lively than Qin An. I also brought good things, even if your eldest brother didn't bring it to my father, I also had to bring some to Second Uncle Lin and Aunt Zhu'er. Dabao put down his chopsticks, took out a few paper bags from his arms, turned his head and put them on the edge of the resistance one by one, and pointed to them one by one and said: "This bag is beef jerky, which is specially made by the chef of the Hou Mansion with various spices: here is the chain made of the famous tiger bone in Dingyuan, which is said to ward off evil spirits, this is a comb of rhinoceros horn, and a grate, and this is a rose dew." It's fragrant. And a little peanuts. ”

After Dabao introduced the things he brought one by one with joy, he also pulled out a piece of exquisite embroidered fabric from his waist, spread it on his hand and said, "Zhu'er, this piece of fabric was given to me by Mrs. Hou, saying that I was asked to bring it to my mother." There are two pieces, I look at the color is too bright, my mother is not good-looking, a few days ago I saw you wrapped the belt on your head, it was very interesting, so I gave it to you. ”

This piece of fabric is so beautiful. The vermilion satin, with a lighter pattern tattooed on it, and some tulle on the four sides of the fabric, is both high-end and foreign, and it is so beautiful to make a scarf.

She hurriedly took it with both hands, put it on her neck and looked left and right, and said in a loud voice: "Brother Dabao is really hearted, good-looking, really good-looking,"

Lin Duo was very envious and looked at Lin Zhu's delicate little face shining with strange brilliance against the background of the scarf, put down the chopsticks and said, "Zhu'er, it's so beautiful, I also want a scarf." ”

Ancient folk women did not have such a habit of wrapping scarves, but they would wrap their heads in winter with a square piece of silk and cotton mixed fabric, which was called a headscarf, referred to as a scarf. Naturally, it is just very simple to wrap on the top of the head, and there is no forest tree wrapped in a different posture.

Lin Zhu said: "Second sister, you like it, next time you have the opportunity to ask Brother Dabao to bring you a piece." Bring one for the eldest sister too. ”

Originally, she wanted to say that if she liked it, the silk scarf was so wide that she could be divided into half in the middle, and maybe into three strips. But Dabao is here, and the things that people send are just backhanded and then given away, which is very rude.

Lin Duo nodded hurriedly and said, "That's it, Brother Dabao, bring me one next time." ”

Dabao said with a smile: "Next time I have the opportunity to bring you one, but this one is not like this." This is the best silk woven by the best cloud brocade weaving workshop in Dingyuan, which is used to pay tribute to the emperor. Zhu'er, you have to treasure it well, and use it again if there are any important things. ”

Dabao saw that although Lin Yun didn't speak, his eyes kept aiming. He was afraid that as soon as he left, she would have some kind of moth and take such a precious thing that he brought back to Lin Zhu for himself. (To be continued......)
