12. Miss Marta

Since Zhu Wu moved in with Xiu'er, the Guo family's grass house has become a little more vibrant. The thatched house has been renovated in Zhu Wu and has a new look. From time to time, I add some household items, and this family finally has a home.

"Wuguo, I miss you so much!"

As soon as she entered the house, the little girl Xiu'er hung on Zhu Wu like a tree bear.

"Fifth brother is back!" Guo Lian'er smiled and took over the things on Zhu Wu's body, and said in surprise, "Fifth brother bought rice?" ”

"I'll show my hand tonight and make you a lard bibimbap!" Zhu Wu said with a smile and scratched the little girl's nose, "What about Guo Xing and their brothers?" ”

"There is a temple fair in Dongcheng, the third brother, they went to see the excitement!"

Hearing this, Zhu Wu shook his head, these two brothers are good, but they are a little lazy, and they don't want to make progress at best, and they have no long-term plans.

"Huh? What is this? Guo Lian'er put away the rice and lard, and found the flower cloth that Zhu Wu had just pulled from the market, and the pretty color suddenly made her unable to move her eyes.

Zhu Wu hugged Xiu'er and said with a smile, "It's almost the New Year, pull some flower cloth to make you a new dress!" ”

Buy me land! Guo Lian'er suddenly felt her heartbeat strongly, looked at Zhu Wu's smiling face, immediately lowered her head, wrung her fingers with both hands, bit her lip and said, "This has to cost a lot of money!" ”

"What is the money! Earn it again if you don't have it! Zhu Wu said with a smile, "The daughters of other families have new clothes to wear for the New Year, and I can't let my sister be wronged!" Do you like it? ”

"I like it, it's just that the colors are too bright!" Guo Lian'er whispered.

Zhu Wuda smiled, "The one you pick is gorgeous, you are the same age as a flower, you have to be gorgeous, the more beautiful the better!" ”

Guo Lian'er's face was hot, but she was happy in her heart, since her parents died, she hadn't worn new clothes for many years. Look at the flower cloth again, it is like a red and bright flower.

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl is already a big girl. If it's an ordinary family, there are mothers. Looking up at Zhu Wu again, his heart was pounding, and the bits and pieces of getting along these days came to mind.

The fifth brother will live, the fifth brother will be clean, the fifth brother can speak, and the fifth brother knows that he is distressed! I don't want to know, I want to be scared, the fifth brother is full of advantages.

Guo Lian'er suddenly became bolder, and asked with a smile, "Fifth brother thinks that Lian'er is good-looking?" ”

"Of course it's good-looking, our Lian'er is the best-looking!" Zhu Wu didn't notice the different look in the girl's eyes, and said with a smile, "Help me make a fire and wash rice, and cook!" ”

……

"Fifth brother!"

Guo Ying and Guo Ying ran back like a gust of wind, panting.

Zhu Wuzheng added firewood to the stove, frowned, and said, "You two let the dog pick up!" ”

Guo Ying poured out a bowl of water from a crockpot and drank it with a gurgling face. This is Zhu Wu's rule, there is boiling water in the clay pot every day.

After drinking, Guo Ying wiped his mouth, Guo Ying smiled, "Fifth brother, my brothers took revenge just now!" ”

"Revenge?" Zhu Wu pointed to Guo Ying's arm, "It's been a hundred days of breaking your muscles and bones, and you're not good yet!" ”

"It's revenge!" Guo Xing pointed to his brother's arm and smiled, "Last time, I took the lead in beating that beggar and blocked my brother and sister in a dead end." Fifth brother, what kind of cross solid does it work for you, the old boy let my brothers press on the ground, and I turned around according to the method you taught, and ...... gabba"

"You broke someone's arm?" Zhu Wu asked in surprise.

In fact, he also knows a little bit about the fur, he fought every day for two years as a soldier, and when he practiced his fists and feet these days, he let the Guo brothers see that they had to pester him to learn. Unexpectedly, these two stunned young people learned the same thing and used it on others.

"It should be broken, the old boy's howl is a miserable!" Guo Ying said proudly.

This is another characteristic of the Guo brothers, the environment in which these brothers grew up was too harsh, causing the brothers to either not start, or they were killed, bold and ruthless.

"No one sees it!" Zhu Wu asked again.

Guo Xing said with a smile, "It's all said that there are dead ends, how can anyone see it!" ”

Zhu Wu glared at him, "Why are you so frivolous as a brother, I told you a long time ago, revenge is not in a hurry, why don't you listen!" Besides, those who call Hanako are barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, you two can't kill them at once, and maybe you can find them when you turn around! ”

Guo Xing scratched his head, in the past month or so that he and Zhu Wu have been together, the two of them have developed the temperament of listening to the fifth brother for everything, and said with a smile, "I remember what you said, blindfolded first, and then attacked, he doesn't know who it is!" ”

Before Zhu Wu could say anything more, the little girl Xiu'er smelled the smell and came over. Lying on his lap, he said as he licked his fingers.

"Wuguo, it's so fragrant, is the lard bibimbap ready!"

Zhu Wu glared at the two brothers, and was busy cooking.

…………

I don't know what a good day is today, Yuelai Inn slaughters pigs and sheep.

The guys gathered around a few big black pigs with fat heads and big ears in the backyard, pointing and pointing. Zhu Wuyi brought Guo Ying to help early in the morning, and when the two brothers saw the pigs, they all flowed out.

It stands to reason that if there is such excitement on weekdays, Guo's shopkeeper will show up. But today, I haven't seen anyone since Zhu Wu arrived at the inn. But every day, he followed the sunspot behind his buttocks, and from time to time took a few men into the backyard of the inn and went directly to the second floor where the shopkeeper lived.

Those men who came, Zhu Wu looked familiar, and when he thought about it carefully, they were all small heads of the defenders of various city gates.

"What are you doing in a daze!" The bookkeeper of the inn kicked Zhu Wu on the ass and scolded with a smile, "Hurry up and help tie up the pigs!" ”

Zhu Wu agreed and led Guo Xing to jump into the courtyard. A few other lads joined in, and a few fat pigs seemed to sense that something was wrong, and howled and ran around.

For a time, the chickens and dogs in the backyard of the inn jumped. The pigs of this year are all free-range, and they are not afraid of people, and a few young men are in a hurry to tie them up and hold them down.

At this time, Mr. Ledger, who is usually polite and polite, changed into a short dress, held a bull-eared knife, and walked over happily.

First looked at the screaming pig, then patted the pig's belly with the back of the knife, and smiled as if buying a watermelon.

"This pig is good, at least three fingers!"

Zhu Wuzhi was puzzled by this style, pressed the pig's body with his knees, and said with a smile, "Sir, are you an old man?" ”

"What? Don't we guys like people who can use knives? Mr. Bookkeeper laughed.

Before Zhu Wu could speak, a guy laughed and scolded, "Boy, open your eyes!" Our third master has killed more pigs in his life than you have ever seen! ”

The account room of the pig killing! Zhu Wu felt that his brain was not enough, so he could only sigh, this Yuelai Inn is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.

"Pig and pig, have a good birth in the next life, don't be a livestock!"

The bookkeeper finished with a smile, and his hand fell. With a snort, Zhu Wu's eyelids were not shivering, and the pig that was being pressed slammed suddenly, and began to struggle violently.

Afterwards, another young man took a wooden basin and placed it underneath. Brush, after Mr. Bookkeeper drew the knife, the blood gushed out with a fishy smell. The man took a stick and stirred it in a wooden basin.

"Stir up, stir hard!" The bookkeeper smiled and said, "Wait a minute, this pig's blood will be steamed in the pot and your big teeth will be removed!" ”

Everyone laughed, and Zhu Wu also licked his lips. For a while, I was in a trance, as if I had returned to the scene of killing New Year's pigs in my hometown when I was a child.

Time flies, and the vicissitudes of life. No matter how young they are, generations of Chinese people have kept the inheritance of their ancestors, whether it is food or etiquette. Even if future generations are accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, what they look forward to most every year is this lively and primitive taste.

This is probably the reason why this nation has been able to last for 5,000 years without a fault.

Pig, there's no movement. A cauldron was set up next to it, everyone was ready to boil water to remove hair, and the knife in the bookkeeper's hand was also changed.

At this time, a crisp female voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Third uncle, cut a piece of front leg meat for me and make dumplings for my father!"

Zhu Wu subconsciously turned around, and under the eaves of the backyard, a girl came at some point.

A half-new fur cloak that sets off the bright-eyed and bright-toothed face. The facial features on this face are distinct, the skin is a healthy wheat color, and it looks downright and generous without powder. Especially when you laugh, it makes people feel like a spring breeze.

Zhu Wu looked stupid, when he came to this world, he had never seen such a girl.

"Okay, Miss!" The bookkeeper raised his knife in his hand, cut off a piece of meat, and said to Zhu Wu, who was selling the idiot, "Send it to the eldest lady!" ”

"Hey, good!"

Zhu Wu was dazed, took the pork, and walked to buy it. As I walked, I suddenly remembered something, and washed my hands in the barrel.

The girl who was called the eldest lady smiled, looked at Zhu Wu generously and said, "You are new here?" Why haven't I seen you! ”

Zhu Wu was just about to speak, when a passing guy rushed to say, "Miss, he is not from our inn." It turns out that he is helping us with chores, who knows that this kid is thick-skinned and will not leave us. The old man is kind-hearted, let him work with us! ”

Zhu Wu glared at the guy, they were all about the same age, and they had already become familiar, and said with a smile, "In Xia Zhu Wu, I have seen the eldest lady!" ”

But I thought in my heart that this eldest lady should be the daughter of the shopkeeper Guo.

The eldest lady smiled again, looked at Zhu Wu, saw that his hands and face were cleaned up, and said with a smile, "If you are not busy, you can come and help me light the fire!" ”

"Okay, I can make dumplings!" Zhu Wu said with a smile.
