Chapter 44: Bath Beans
Thank you for Sasa's reward, thank you Aya for the update ticket, dear, you often come to supervise, it's very happy to be lonely!
Boss Bai went to the big object on his shoulder, and walked to the head of the ox cart with his footsteps, and Ah Yuan accompanied a few old and young women in the same car, and slowly drove out of the town.
I always feel that there is such a very uncomfortable gaze falling on him, Ah Yuan gently moved his body, some of the women in the same car were closing their eyes to recuperate, and some were chatting with their heads in three or two, and there was nothing abnormal.
A three-way intersection out of the town is the origin of the gaze.
A tall and thin young man, dressed very different from the white boss and others, Ah Yuan has just adapted to the "short brown" dress of the Bai family man, both short and thick cloth clothes, narrow body and small sleeves, very suitable for work, suddenly saw the white cloth robe with wide sleeves and wide placket on this person, and felt that it was an eyesore.
The eye-catching young man's hair bun is also wrapped in a decoration called "Dongpo scarf", which makes people know at a glance that this is a reader, and perhaps, he reads very well.
Such a man naturally has nothing to do with himself, Ah Yuan didn't even raise his eyelids to carefully examine the man's face, and quickly lowered his head.
In the previous life, I walked lame for 30 years, and the most tenacious thing to practice was to face all kinds of eyes, that cultivation was not inferior to the "Golden Bell Jar", no matter how you stared at it, stared at it, stared at it, ridiculed it, looked at it with contempt, looked at it with anger, my sister can be calm and calm, and the birds are not birds you!
Ah Yuan's quietness was also exchanged for quietness, most of the women in the same car were located in several villages on the same road, and they got off one after another, and none of them accosted Ah Yuan.
Boss Bai was waiting for his daughter-in-law at an intersection, with a smile on his black face, and on his trouser leg that had been pulled twice, the color was so dusty that he couldn't see the color.
is such an honor, but it brings Ah Yuan a kind of warmth of going home, it seems that this warmth is not about demeanor, nor is it about whether he is rich or not, that is, when he returns, he sees a relative, and he feels down-to-earth.
Bidding farewell to the owner of the ox owner, the husband and wife carried all their belongings and followed each other back to their village.
When he came out, he just passed on the main road of the village, and he didn't think there was anything strange about the Confusion Array.
It's really a sloping street everywhere, the road is slanted, the fork in the road is also slanted, but the house looks very thoughtful, there is a 90-degree angle difference, and it is all sitting north and facing south.
In the direction of the southeast and northwest, it was chaotic when he landed, and he couldn't find Ah Yuan in the north, so he could only follow Boss Bai step by step.
Finally walked out of the village, saw the courtyard of Aunt Li's house, and saw his house standing alone in the wilderness, Ah Yuan's spirit was greatly lifted.
For the first time, I felt the feeling of "home" so deeply.
"Arwen, will they come back sooner? We didn't see each other in the town, and there was the second child, who said that he was going to Lijia Village to do things, and Lijia Village was far away? Ah Yuan's fatigue was completely gone, and he couldn't wait for the wind under his feet and ran to the gate of the courtyard.
However, General Tie was still holding the door safely, and it was obvious that they were the first to go home.
Boss Bai responded to Ah Yuan's inquiry dotingly, and patiently pointed out the names of the surrounding villages, including Qi Ayuan's hometown.
"Across a village, it is your mother's thirty miles, and you can walk for an hour."
Ah Yuan has gained insight and knows the origin of her body, of course, she doesn't have the heart to go back to her parents' house to see.
When the husband and wife entered the house, their stomachs were already empty, so they didn't say anything, so they cooked first.
The dough that was made early has been opened at this moment, the white boss rolled up his sleeves, divided the steamed bread by two, kneaded the steamed bread, Ah Yuan boiled the water neatly, the steamed bread was picked up into the grate, and the two of them turned to deal with the large pile of mutton.
Set aside the pieces of meat to be used tomorrow, and the rest must be marinated to ensure that they don't spoil, Ah Yuan was in high spirits, and chattered with Boss Bai about how to season "ramen".
The stove room is warm, and the fragrance of steamed buns overflows the mouth and nose.
The husband and wife held the big white steamed buns and chatted, and the mutton bone broth began to bubble, "goo-goo-goo", and the fresh and fragrant taste should be a delicacy match.
A meal without stir-frying, because of the taste, the atmosphere, is infinitely sweet.
When Bai Lao Er approached the door, his cold expression suddenly became warm, he pushed open the half-covered courtyard door, squatted on the ground with the two iron stoves in his arms, and shouted: "Sister-in-law, eldest brother, I'm back-".
Then, the new sister-in-law, who still had the smell of meat on her body, ran out of the stove room, with a smile on her face, which could dissolve all the gloom: "The second brother is back?" Great work! Quick, Chengguang took the things and asked the second brother to wash his hands and eat, the bone broth is almost ready, and my sister-in-law will give you a bowl to drink! ”
Boss Bai then got out of the stove room and greeted the second child of the Bai family with a smile: "This is the stove that your sister-in-law said?" You go to dinner, I'll try to use it or not. ”
As if he had bought a new toy, Bai Lao Er immediately threw himself into the firewood pile, and in the two furnaces, he stuffed firewood and lit them respectively, and Ah Yuan took the newly bought amphora iron pot, filled it with water, and sat on the hearth.
The first to boil water was the tin stove with the inner tank, and without much firewood, a large wooden basin of hot water was poured out.
"Success! Look at the next one! ”
The stove with an iron pot follows the honeycomb coal stove model of Ah Yuan's previous life, the difference is only that it is firewood.
"It's a bit of a fire-", Boss Bai frowned as he watched the iron pot block the flames, and then, picked up three small stones and put them around the hearth, and sure enough, the flames rushed up, burning the bottom of the pot vigorously.
It's called self-taught, right? Ah Yuan's face was smeared with black ash, and he smiled and stretched out his thumb: "Husband, you are awesome!" ”
"Husband-father-", Boss Bai didn't hear clearly, but the praise was clear, so he grinned and smirked twice.
His temperament is more horse-like than Ah Yuan, and when he encounters something he doesn't understand, as long as you don't take the initiative to explain, he won't ask much.
"Chengguang," Ah Yuan corrected his title, tugged at the man's clothes, and lowered his voice: "These hot water are the first one, and they smell a little rusty, why don't you bring them to the house for me and wash them-."
After running this morning, my whole body feels slimy, don't let it cool the freshly boiled water, right?
Bai Lao Nature agreed, bent over and hunched his back, and the wooden basin was easily sent into the main house.
"Daughter-in-law, Ming'er, the new bath bucket can be retrieved, you can get some first."
Ah Yuan's face was rosy, and he glanced at the man: "Go out quickly, help me tie the door." ”
"Also, this--when you bought the silk thread, I bought you a handful-", in the big palm of the white boss, there were seven or eight round yellow eggs.
Ah Yuan grabbed one, stretched it out under his nose and sniffed: "There is also a fragrance - beany smell, delicious - jelly beans?" ”
A hint of sweetness rises from the center of the foot, look at the man we are looking for, and know how to buy snacks for his daughter-in-law!
"Daughter-in-law, you can't eat it!" Boss Bai grabbed Ah Yuan's little hand that he brought to his mouth.
"It's-bath beans!"
Ah Yuan's face was wonderful, red and white sweaty, and it was all in a blink of an eye.
"Who-don't know! I'll tease you! The new daughter-in-law was annoyed, put her hands together, pushed the man out of the door, "bang-", and dropped the latch inside.
Shame on you! Lose your hair! Ah Yuan clenched the "bath beans", looked left and right, just now, why didn't he think about it?
"Bath beans" can be said to be all-round cosmetics in ancient times, washing hands, face, hair, bathing, washing clothes, in short, all stains, oil, "bath beans" are all done! Sun Simiao wrote in "A Thousand Golden Wings": "The clothes are fragrant, the bath beans, the nobles are victorious, and they are all wanted." It means that from the peddlers and pawns to the emperor's relatives, "bath beans" are a must-have at home.
In fact, just like the smell of Ah Yuan, the ingredients of "bath beans" are all ingredients, and if you really eat them in the stomach, they also have the effect of "dissolving fat", just like using soap to remove stains, clean and thorough.
This is a pure natural cosmetics, use it, don't worry about acne and disfigurement.
To be honest, "bath beans" to wash hair and bathe are really much stronger than plant ash. This is the biggest realization after Ah Yuan quickly completed a combat bath.
As soon as the door opened, the white boss, who didn't know where he had provoked his daughter-in-law just now, ran over to pour water, smirked as usual, and looked at his daughter-in-law's slippery face, and his heart was full of joy.
Ah Yuan wrapped a new cloth towel around his head, went to the stove room to make meat sauce, and Bai Boss practiced the harmony of ramen according to the method he had taught.
The sauce of this grocery store in the village of Misty Array is well stuffed, and it is fried with finely chopped mutton foam, not to mention how tempting the fragrance is.
"Sister-in-law, we're back!" The cries of Ah Wen and Cai Lian spread far into the courtyard, and it seemed that in the past few days, every younger sibling would call like this when they came home.
"Tonight, let's try this ramen first!" Ah Yuan hurriedly instructed Boss Bai to hurry up and go to the gate of the courtyard to greet the shouting younger brothers and sisters.
The corners of the white boss's mouth hooked, and he let out a loud "um", and stretched out his hand to transform the dough into the desired shape.
Listening to Ah Yuan and Ah Wen as they entered the courtyard, there were questions and answers, which would make people feel that the days were very comfortable and very rushing.
"Have you eaten at noon? Hungry or not? ”
"Not hungry! At noon, the third brother invited us to drink the wonton, and the shopkeeper of the dim sum shop also gave us two small snacks, saying that he asked the third brother to send him 20 strings of sugar gourds for trial sale! Xiao Awen replied very methodically, and from his clothes pocket, he also grabbed a piece of food the size of a "bath bean": "Oh, I left it for my sister-in-law, it's delicious and sweet!" ”
Cai Lian also carefully left a "bath bean snack", which was for Boss Bai.
Both husband and wife were a little moved, and they pushed for a long time before carefully sending it to their mouths.
In fact, there is a little smell of sweat on the skin of the dim sum, but Ah Yuan squinted his eyes and exclaimed: "It's delicious, xiexie you two, you three!" ”
Boss Bai just giggled and smashed the dough on the board.
No one noticed that outside the stove room, there was a big boy who had been isolated, holding a wooden box in his hand, and was stunned for a long time.
