Chapter 44 Eating from Vegetables
The second lady squatted in the ground with a blade wrapped in a coarse cloth in her hand to cut leeks, and said while cutting: "Zhu'er, the leeks are only a bunch long, and they are a little tender." Besides, we haven't sent it to the kitchen in the house, let's use it first, isn't it authentic. β
"A long one." Lin Zhu stretched out a hand, looked at the distance between his thumb and middle finger, about fifteen centimeters, and said, "It's almost, didn't you say that the first stubble leeks are the best?" Our leek field is in the rising sun, growing a little faster than the average family, and it is just right to eat it now. If you feel embarrassed that you didn't eat in the house, you can cut a little more and send some to the house. As soon as the day is hot, the leeks grow wildly, and there are still things to eat for two days. Hurry up and cut, the leeks cut in the morning are delicious. β
Cai Er Niangzi hesitated to cut off half of the dustpan, the daughter was right, this leek field is enough to have two points, every year can not be eaten, to the last stubble in addition to pickled pickles, can only be thrown away.
Cai Er Niangzi picked half of the leeks and prepared to send them to the kitchen in the house later. The other half was washed with water, dried outside, and ruthlessly, took the eggs laid by the black hen that could not pour yin and yang at night, and fried them into pieces.
He took a little white flour secretly hidden in the vegetable cellar, asked Lin Zhu to go outside to sentry, and branded a dozen leek boxes.
Cai Erniang's cooking skills are very good, and the leeks box baked out is moderately colored and fragrant. Lin Zhu placed them one by one in a small bamboo basket for food and covered them with a clean cage cloth. Leave two and say, "Mother, these two are left behind for you and your father, and I will take the rest." Hurry up and go, or the box won't taste good if it's cold. β
After speaking, he hurriedly lifted the basket containing the potatoes, put the bamboo basket inside, and walked out of the door.
The basket is a bit heavy and a bit difficult to lift. She put it down for a while to rest for a while, and then lifted it again with another hand.
After walking not far, Young Master Jin's magnetic voice came from behind him: "Isn't this Zhu'er, where are you going?" β
γHow is it so coincidentalγ Lin Zhu secretly screamed bitterly.
went to the town to buy vegetable boxes, to avoid the people of Yan Mansion. This Jin Gongzi and Yan Wuwu have become brothers with righteous surnames. If he knows it, he also knows it by Yan Wuwu, although there is a surplus of vegetables in the field, it is one thing to throw it out, it is another thing to give it to her own restaurant, and it is another thing for her to make money.
She sighed, put down the basket and said, "Go to the town and bring some food to Juxian Building." β
Young Master Jin said: "You should also let your father go to deliver food, such a big basket, how can you carry it at such a small age." β
Jin Zhen's tone was full of soft pity, and Lin Zhu only felt soft in his heart, and finally someone took pity on him. is still such a handsome fairy-like beautiful man.
blushed and said, "My father and mother are very busy, and it is time to grow vegetables after the spring breeze." I was idle, and slowly reversed to the town, which was not far anyway. β
Jin Zhen stepped forward slowly, lifted the basket and said, "You follow, I'll carry it." β
This beautiful young man is really a gentleman, much stronger than Yan Wuwu.
Lin Zhu hurriedly said, "No, No, Young Master Jin, I'll come." β
Jiu'er pursed her lips and smiled lightly, stepped forward to take Lin Zhu's arm and said, "Sister Zhu'er, my young master has the most pity for Xiangxiang and cherishes the jade, so let him mention it." β
Originally, she wanted to help, but the young master stopped her.
"That's embarrassing." Lin Zhu blushed and said, "Let the young master help me work, I'm idle." β
"Zhu'er, you are not a maid in the eyes of this young master." Jin Zhen seemed to be a weak scholar, but he seemed to be very powerful, carrying a large basket of potatoes, which was actually very light, and he said as he walked: "In the future, don't treat me as a young master." Think it's your brother or something. β
"How can I be so blessed." Lin Zhu hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I don't even know who my father and mother are, and I dare to hope for any brother, and such a noble brother." β
This little girl, who doesn't even know her own parents, is really a bit sad.
Jin Zhen's footsteps slowed down and said, "Zhu'er, you really don't know your father?" I heard that you were five or six years old when you were adopted. β
"I don't know." Lin Zhu whispered: "I only know that I woke up and lay on the kang, saying that I fell off the cliff." I heard them say I picked it up. β
In the past, I didn't have any memory to tell the truth, which saved trouble.
Jin Zhen sighed softly and quickened his pace.
Jiu'er gently took Lin Zhu's arm and came to Tianmen Town together.
When he arrived outside Juxian Restaurant, Jin Zhen had no intention of leaving, and Lin Zhu was inconvenient to carry the bamboo basket into the store, so after thinking about it, he took the bamboo basket out and handed it to Jiu'er and said, "Sister Jiu'er, you help me carry it." β
He sent a basket of potatoes into Juxian Restaurant and walked out after a while.
Jiu'er carried the bamboo basket and felt that it was hot inside, a little curious, and when she came out, she asked, "Zhu'er, what is in the basket, is it still hot." β
Lin Zhu lowered his head and said, "The leeks have grown taller, and my mother cut the stubble and branded some vegetable boxes." I want to sell it in town and get some money to buy some fancy paper cotton rope. β
Jin Zhen asked curiously, "What are you buying those things for?" β
Lin Zhu said: "Tie paper kites, March 3 is here, everyone puts paper kites, I want to take them to the capital to buy." β
Jin Zhen frowned and said, "Is your family very short of money?" I heard that all three of you have a monthly salary. β
"Yes, it's all for grandma." Lin Zhu bowed his head and said, "I want to make some money and make my father and mother live a little better." But the family didn't even have the money to buy flower paper. I want to rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water to eat the water, and we eat the vegetables by the vegetable garden. Young Master Jin, Sister Jiu'er, this is all left after it was sent to the house, you must not tell SΓΉ Wuwu Gongzi, if he knows, he may pick my skin. β
She said pitifully, and Jin Zhen lowered her head silently.
Jiu'er hurriedly said: "Sister Zhu'er, don't worry, my young master will never say it." Young master, you go to do something, and I will accompany Zhu'er to sell these boxes. β
Jin Zhen raised his head and smiled slightly, captivating the country and the city, immediately attracting countless amazing eyes, he turned a blind eye and said to Jiu'er: "Buy a few and leave a few for us." β
Jiu'er carried a bamboo basket and whispered with a smile as she walked: "Leek box, leek box." β¦β¦γ β
Her voice was small, and her eyes didn't look left and right, as if she was just talking to Lin Zhu,
Lin Zhu chuckled and said, "Sister Jiu'er, at first glance, you are not the material for trading, you look at me." β
She took the bamboo basket and shouted loudly: "The leek box, the head stubble of leeks is burned, fragrant and oily, the old lady, the young master, try it." Only five copper plates each. β
Her voice was crisp and melodious, very infectious, and the children who had eaten radishes, cabbage, and potatoes for a winter were aroused by their appetites, and they held the hands of adults one by one, and after a while, many people surrounded them.
Jin Xiaoguang, who had just come out of an alley, stopped and looked at it very deeply.
