"Mother! Mother! Come here! ”

Xia Mu hurriedly entered the kitchen, "What's wrong?" Xia Shangshang smiled and pointed to the pork liver on the wall.

"Mother, can you help me cut this pork liver into thin slices, I don't know how to use a knife."

When Xia Mu saw it, she was shocked: "Oh, this is a pig in the water!" Inedible! ”

"Don't worry about it, I have my own way!"

Xia's mother couldn't resist the stubborn Xia Shangshang, so she had to go and get the pork liver and wash it. Xia Shangshang took advantage of his mother's efforts to cut pork liver, and tore the mushrooms one by one and put them into the pot to boil. Soon, the fresh aroma of the mushrooms came out. Xia Mu smelled the fresh fragrance of the kitchen, and only felt that her saliva was about to be hooked out.

"Merchant, the sewer is treated, you can see how to get it."

Xia Shangshang smelled the smell coming from the pot and felt that it was almost over, so he quickly took the thin slices of pork liver that his mother was kind to, sprinkled some starch and stirred evenly before getting out of the pot.

The pork liver was quickly cooked in the boiling soup, and the corners were tender and tender, and Xia Shangshang found two wild onions from the wild vegetables he picked on the mountain today, finely chopped them and sprinkled them into the soup.

"Sister-in-law of the Xia family! What are you doing? So fragrant! The voice of Aunt Liu, the next-door neighbor, came from the door.

Mother Xia hurriedly greeted her, "Oh, Sister Liu!" How can I come over tonight! ”

Aunt Liu is one of the few people in the entire village who is willing to deal with Xia's mother, and most of the people in the village dislike Xia's mother as an abandoned woman that no one wants, not to mention that there is such a scary acne on her face, which is even more annoying. After Xia's mother was kicked out of Xia's house, the people in the village looked down on her and tried to avoid her and not associate with her. At that time, Aunt Liu enthusiastically took in Xia's mother, and took care of Xia's mother all the way to build the thatched house.

Aunt Liu grinned, "That girl in my family, I have been shouting at home and smelling a fragrance, and I have to look for it if I don't eat it, no, we found it." What are you doing here, why is it so fragrant? ”

Xia Mu said embarrassedly: "How can I have that ability!" It's all made by merchants, and I've never seen it. ”

Aunt Liu's daughter Erya ran into the kitchen, and the little person stood on the stove and stretched her neck to look into the pot.

"Sister Shangshang, can I take a sip?" Xia Shangshang looked at the milky voice of the round meat ball, pinched the face of the little erya, and agreed with a smile.

Xia Shangshang took out two more bowls and chopsticks, and each of them served a bowl of soup and took it out.

Aunt Liu sat at the dining table and looked at the richly colored soup in the small rice bowl, and couldn't hold back any longer, so she started drinking it unceremoniously. After drinking this drink, Aunt Liu felt that her tongue was going to be fresh.

"O merchant! What are you doing? How is it so delicious! Aunt Liu said while licking her lips.

"Aunt Liu, this white is the wild vegetable I stepped on in the mountains, I see that the color is white and tender, it looks very good, so I brought it back and wanted to see if I could make it, I don't know what the specific name is."

Xia Shangshang still has reservations about outsiders, his own changes, his relatives know nothing, if outsiders know, the current society is still quite feudal and superstitious, and when the time comes, Xia Shangshang Shang'an will be charged with being possessed by a ghost, then he can't afford it.

The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.

Xia's mother rolled her eyes, and she instantly understood her daughter's thoughts, and the two glanced at each other and smiled.

Aunt Liu didn't ask anymore, and drank soup with Erya, who was holding a bowl in her two chubby little hands, which was very cute.

Suddenly, Xia Shangshang saw a long green strip leaking out of Erya's pocket. A twinkle in your eyes, aloe vera! It turned out to be aloe vera!

"Erya! Where did you get the stuff in your pocket! ”

The second girl was taken aback, took out the aloe vera in a daze, and looked at her mother timidly, "This is what I found by the stream, and my mother said that she was so sticky that she usually didn't let me play." ”

"Oh, you girl! Throw it away! I'm going to trouble you with your laundry! Aunt Liu hurriedly slapped off the aloe vera in Erya's hand.

Xia Shangshang quickly picked it up and blew the ash on it, it was really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it. Xia Shangshang searched for something on the mountain for a day, and found it here in Erya. With it, are you still afraid that the acne on your mother's face will not get better?

"Aunt Liu, will you let Erya play with me tomorrow? I want this, I'm useful! ”

"Yes! But this thing is very sticky, you should be careful then, don't stain your and Erya's clothes and make them difficult to wash. ”

Xia Shangshang nodded again and again, and the stone hovering in his heart finally fell. Xia Mu asked puzzledly: "Shangshang, what are you going to do with this thing?" ”

Xia Shangshang smiled mysteriously: "Keep it secret, but you must know that this is a good thing that can restore your beauty!" ”

"Wow? Merchant, can this thing really restore your mother's face? ”

Xia Shangshang nodded: "Aunt Liu, you don't know, this thing can't be eaten or drunk, but the pulp inside can be applied to the face, which can reduce inflammation and detoxification, and clean the skin." I'll get it out when the time comes, and I'll bring a copy to my aunt, and I can also replenish the moisture of my skin by rubbing it more, and I'll keep it until I'm forty! ”

"Oh, that's a good feeling!" Aunt Liu's eyes widened happily, she used to look at these things by the stream that looked dense and beautiful, and the tender ones were pinched back and wanted to fry them, it turned out that people were not for eating at all!

Xia Mu's eyes were red: "Shang Shang, Shang Shang, can my face really be restored by this?" ”

Xia Shangshang looked at Xia's mother's expectant eyes, and his heart was not happy, his mother had been abandoned by his father for so many years because of this face, and he must have felt bad in his heart. Xia Shangshang looks like his mother, and looking at his appearance in the bronze mirror, he can think that Xia's mother's appearance should not be bad back then. In fact, Aunt Liu's face has also added a sallow color to her face after years of hard work, and her skin is no longer as white and flawless as she was young.

If ······ It would be nice if they had skincare and makeup······ Wait, yes! Xia Shangshang patted his head! Why didn't I think of making a skin care product in ancient times! In the 21st century, although overseas goods occupy the domestic market, in fact, domestic products made of raw materials from ancient times to the present day are the safest and most effective products. Xia Shangshang's eyes ignited with a blazing ambition, she wanted to open the first skin management company in ancient times!

Xia Shangshang got up early the next day, went to Aunt Liu's house, hugged Erya, and went out to the lake. Xia Shangshang glanced over and really saw a large area of tender green aloe vera. Xia Shangshang carried the basket and stepped on the water all the way. Looking at the rows of aloe vera so tender that they can pinch out the water, Xia Shangshang seems to have returned to the laboratory of the 21st century. There, I spent all day with these raw materials.
