Chapter 61: Some People Rejoice, Some People Are Sad

"Brother, I'll tell you this about this, don't ask again, anyway, we're just friends, don't worry, we won't see each other again in the future. It's just that you don't tell anyone else about this matter, only you and I know, otherwise I'm afraid there will be danger. ”

Bai Jiaojiao said to Qingfeng seriously.

"Okay, I see." Qingfeng replied seriously, after all, this matter is not child's play, this can involve the official family. "Do you like him?"

When Bai Jiaojiao heard Qingfeng say this, she suddenly looked at Qingfeng with wide eyes.

"Me. Yes, I like him because he's good-looking. Bai Jiaojiao's serious answer to Qingfeng is the kind that has never been serious, this is the end of her feelings, and it is an explanation of her own feelings.

"You, you know who he is, the housekeepers are looking for him, and you just provoke him." When Qingfeng heard Bai Jiaojiao say this, his heart was actually throbbing, but he didn't expect that his little girl had already met someone earlier.

"Alright, I... We've made it clear, and I've already told me when I went up the hill that it's impossible for us. Bai Jiaojiao lowered her head gloomily.

Qingfeng couldn't help but secretly hate that person when he heard this.

His little girl herself is rare and rare, and the man is annoyed.

Qingfeng waved his hand, "Alright, this matter will end here." You promised me that if you don't do anything like this today in the future, I won't tell my mother about it. ”

Bai Jiaojiao was frightened for a while, and probably there would be no such opportunity in the future.

Well, just like Brother Qingfeng said, if there is fate, it is naturally good, if there is no fate, the twisted melon is not sweet...... Bai Jiaojiao looked up at the angry Meiwu Mountain, her eyes were confused, and a smile of unknown meaning bloomed on her face.

"I know, I promise you, I won't do anything dangerous in the future." Bai Jiaojiao stepped forward and grabbed Qingfeng's hand, looking at Qingfeng coquettishly, "Don't tell your mother, I'm afraid she will worry." ”

The heart that Qingfeng was stuck in his throat fell back with a "bang".

"Talking counts?" Qingfeng asked.

"Words count, it's the puppy who cheats." Bai Jiaojiao said.

Qingfeng stretched out his little finger and motioned for Bai Jiaojiao to pull a hook and seal with him.

Bai Jiaojiao grinned, hooked Qingfeng's fingers, and stamped his thumb and Qingfeng's thumb.

"Brother, let's go dig some bamboo shoots."

The brother and sister began to dig bamboo shoots, and there were not many bamboo shoots that had just emerged, and it was estimated that there would be more and more in a few days.

In a while, I dug two bamboo baskets and a cloth bag. After digging the bamboo shoots and walking inside, Bai Jiaojiao found that there were a large number of rotten trees in front of her, and a few shiitake mushrooms could be vaguely seen

"Brother, there are mushrooms" After Bai Jiaojiao saw it, she shouted loudly.

"Yiyi, that mushroom shouldn't be able to eat the ground, it's poisonous" After Qingfeng saw it, he told Bai Jiaojiao, "Don't fight its idea, I've eaten people to death before." "For fear that Bai Jiaojiao will pick it up, he said seriously.

"No, I've seen it in a book, saying that it's called shiitake mushrooms, and it's not poisonous, and poisonous mushrooms look very good, this one is different. It tastes delicious and delicious. ”

"Really?" Qingfeng was a little unconvinced, but Bai Jiaojiao had never made a mistake.

"Really." Bai Jiaojiao said.

Qingfeng, as long as he heard Bai Jiaojiao say this, he immediately picked a bamboo basket of shiitake mushrooms and went back.

The basket and cloth bag they brought were full of things, and the brother and sister slowly went out of the mountain.

Today is really an unexpected harvest, Bai Jiaojiao is very happy, today's harvest is good.

Inadvertently, Bai Jiaojiao saw a plant similar to a chili pepper, and when she got closer, she found that it was really a wild pepper, with more than a dozen plants.

"Brother, look at this is a wild pepper." Bai Jiaojiao said in surprise, why didn't you see it before?

"This? Can you eat it? This thing is not unusual, there are more in the mountains. But it hurts when I touch my hand," Qingfeng said unsurprisingly.

"It's called wild pepper, it can be used for cooking, or it can be eaten raw, and the stir-fried dish is very delicious." Bai Jiaojiao hurriedly explained.

"Really? Then quickly pick some and take them home to stir-fry and eat. "Qingfeng is about to move when he hears this.

"Brother, don't pick it yet, let's move these wild peppers home, plant them, and eat them in the future." Bai Jiaojiao suggested.

"Okay, that's fine, I'll get it, you just have to look at it." Qingfeng pulled out the wild pepper by the roots and held it with his hand. "Alright, let's go, let's go down the mountain and go home." Bai Jiaojiao said.

From a distance, I saw Tang standing at the door and looking, seeing the figures of the two, a warm smile bloomed on his face, and he turned back to Dong Mingxuan in the room and said, "The child is back." ”

"Mother, I'll cook today." Bai Jiaojiao said.

The food bought in the town Bai Jiaojiao was carefully hidden, three catties of pork, one catty pickled, the family has not seen meat dishes for a long time, Bai Jiaojiao left two catties of pork, and burned a braised pork, now that there are cooking materials at home, Bai Jiaojiao will not shrink back when cooking.

Qingfeng had just come back from the stream and caught a fish.

In this era, there are not many people who eat fish, because the seasoning is limited, and the fishy smell is strong and not delicious. But since Bai Jiaojiao made a fish soup last time, Qingfeng would go to the stream behind the house from time to time to catch fish to eat.

In this era, there was no soy sauce, and there was white sugar, but it was the kind of gray and not very pure white sugar, and the taste was not very good and a little bitter, which was not delicious, but it could be used. This braised pork is my former specialty dish, and you can make a red color without soy sauce, as long as there is sugar.

Bai Jiaojiao fried the fish with green onions, garlic, and ginger, although there was no soy sauce to color, but the fried charred juice was collected in water, and it looked very appetizing, but at this stage, I can only use myself to make the sauce first.

Stir-fried a bamboo shoot and mushrooms with the oil residue from the braised pork.

Today's lunch was particularly hearty. Braised pork, braised fish, stir-fried bamboo shoots, and mushrooms with oil residue, a total of four dishes were made.

"Yiyi, I didn't find that you were so good at cooking, it was light and tasteless before," Qingfeng said.

"Didn't you have no money and no salt at home before, and you didn't dare to put more salt in cooking," Bai Jiaojiao then replied.

"yes, you can put more salt in your cooking in the future"

"Brother, it's not good to eat too much salt, this saltiness is just right." Qingfeng smiled.

"Yiyi, how did you come up with the idea of using these wild vegetables to cook," Tang said curiously.

"I tried it by accident, and then I thought that if I did it, I would get rid of the fishy smell." Bai Jiaojiao was fortunate to have thought of a way to deal with it, otherwise she would have been asked.

"Yiyi is so smart"

In fact, the people of this era cook very simply, all dishes are boiled in salted water, and they are not too willing to put oil and sugar, and there are no other seasonings at all.

Like Bai Jiaojiao, this dish is estimated to be the only one, maybe she can open a hotel or something in the future, which is also a good way to make money.

Wait until the family has finished eating, and then, Bai Jiaojiao sat with Tang for a while and cleaned up the housework.

Then I watched Tang's belly get bigger and bigger, but I don't know why, I probably see it every day, but I am not so surprised.

I just feel that Down's belly is growing very fast, especially after 5 months.

"Mother, when did you give birth?"

Bai Jiaojiao asked Tang curiously, and Tang looked shy, after all, he was talking to his daughter like this.

"The due date is probably July, and now it's the end of May, so it's still more than a month."

"So fast." Bai Jiaojiao was shocked by Tang's words, she felt that she didn't expect that ten months had passed, she had been here for almost six years, and six years seemed to be able to erase half of all her memories in the present.

Now I can still echo the scene of the day Tang and Dong Mingxuan got married.

Now the little brother is about to appear.

"What are you so surprised about, kid?"

Tang was taken aback by Bai Jiaojiao's startled tone, patted his chest with his hand, and rubbed his stomach smoothly.

As soon as Tang's hand was placed on it, he felt a bulge and the child rolled in his stomach.

The moving Tang took a deep breath.

"Is that so? Reach out and touch it, your brother is moving. ”

Tang took Bai Jiaojiao's hand and put Bai Jiaojiao's hand on his stomach.

Bai Jiaojiao felt that her younger brother was rolling in Tang's belly, and she was very surprised to put her brain on Tang's belly, listening carefully as if she could hear something.

In modern times, she is an only child in their family, and she has never had a younger brother or sister, and now that she has an older brother, there will be a younger brother or a younger sister, and she is very happy in her heart.

This is a very magical thing, although Bai Jiaojiao's soul does not belong here, but because the Tang family is very good to her, she also regards this place as her home, but she feels that this is really a relative with blood connection.

"Wow, she's really moving. Then I'm going to start preparing things for my younger siblings. Bai Jiaojiao said happily.

"Where you need to worry about it, I'm almost ready." Tang said to Bai Jiaojiao.

"Mother, I think let's invite a doctor to come and have a look, and I can prepare in advance for the specific day of delivery, the midwife in the east of the village is so busy that it has been scheduled for a month."

"Ouch, where do you need these?"

Because Tang had already given birth once, he was not so worried, and his heart was very calm.

"Mother, this is different, your body is very weak now, we have not had a good time in the past few years, this is this year only started to raise back, how can you not prepare?"

"Actually, I really think it's quite normal, don't worry, it's okay."

"Aunt Lizheng said that it was very painful to give birth to a child, and the mother of the big flower in our village was because she didn't give birth well, so she collapsed and shed a lot of blood."

Bai Jiaojiao said that in fact, Tang understands, but she can't say it so officially, she still hopes that Tang can accept her opinion, and invited the doctor and Wen Po in advance, everything is ready, and she has a bottom in her heart.

"That... Then you will go to Dr. Liu in the town tomorrow and ask him to help me take a look. ”

"Mother, what are you waiting for tomorrow? I'll get you there this afternoon. ”

"You kid said the wind is the rain."

Tang slapped Bai Jiaojiao, she knew that Bai Jiaojiao was for her good, so she no longer shirked it, in fact, the reason why she said that she was very sure was that she didn't think so, but it would definitely cost money to ask for a doctor, maybe she would have to take some medicine, and now the situation in the family is not very good. These surplus money are all bought by the children in exchange for their lives, and there is no need to spend them on it.

Bai Jiaojiao said that she would get up and go to Qingfeng, discussed this matter with Qingfeng, and decided, "I'll go with you later." ”

Bai Jiaojiao and they didn't have a car, but they walked too slowly, and it was impossible for the doctor to let the family come over, so they went to Lizheng's house to borrow an ox cart.

"Uncle, I'll borrow your ox cart for a trip to town."

Qingfeng went to the door of Lizheng's house and said to Uncle Lizheng.

"What are you doing here? Do you want to bring a lot of things? Do you want me to come with you? ”

Since knowing that Feng Rui's target was Bai Jiaojiao, Uncle Li Zheng was ready to hug Bai Jiaojiao's thighs.

He said: "No need, let's just go to the town ** doctor to invite me over and show my mother, isn't my mother going to give birth?" Or do you want a doctor to take a look? ”
