"Sister Ju'er, your family is so beautiful!"

The sound of milk and milk is good.

"Pretty! My sister made it, and my sister made me a swing that could swing around in the sky. Zhao Lan Xiaoya showed off to the little bun.

Still swinging in the sky, you think you are an angel!

Listening to what Zhao Ju said, Zhao Lan retorted in her heart on the side.

Children talk very interestingly, and what they talk about is all imaginative. The little bun is here, Zhao Ju doesn't have to go out, and Zhao Qiu has someone to play. Zhao Lan can do her job with peace of mind.

Since the beginning of this day, Zhao Lan's house has become Xiao Baozi's second home. came to report every day, and became a member of the Zhao family. He should be renamed Zhao Siqi. That's of course an afterthought.

Children have to play, don't want Zhao Lan to watch, Zhao Lan can work with peace of mind.

Zhao Lan decided to deal with the seeds of Junzi Orchid first and plant them tomorrow.

Zhao Lan took a bamboo knot, scooped some water, and mixed it with some boiling water, and the temperature was adjusted to about 40 degrees, that is, higher than the body temperature. After adjusting the temperature, put the seeds of the orchid in it and soak it for a day. Tomorrow you can take it out and put it in the prepared soil, that is, the sawdust and fine sand soil that will come today, and wait for germination. This germination is a difficult wait, and it takes about a month and a half. Impatient people can't wait.

After doing all this, Zhao Lan rested, thinking about what else to do today? Yes, the bark of the tree has been soaked in the pond for ten days!

The next thing is to wash and then put it in a pot to cook.

Where do I cook it? Zhao Lan was in trouble. After thinking about it for a long time, I remembered that there seemed to be an old pot in the utility room, and I don't know why a corner was missing on it, so I used it!

Zhao Lan fished out the soaked bark from the ditch, washed it with water repeatedly, set up a simple stove in the yard, put a pot with a missing corner on it, made the pot, and put the bark in to cook.

Zhao Shen said bluntly that she had nothing to do, she was messing around, what could she do if the book cover was cooked, this was not a famine year to satisfy her hunger with tree bark.

Zhao Shen said that he was talking, but he didn't stop Zhao Lan's nonsense, and he just played with the skin like a child.

The bark was boiled for a day and brought late. Zhao Lan looked at the bark that had been boiled, and felt that it should be good. No one asks if it's good or not, you can only feel yourself! Please don't say that I'm not rigorous in my experiments.

The day after the bark was boiled, the wasteland could not be left, and the bark had to be beaten. It's hard work.

Zhao Lan found a thick wooden stick and washed it with a hammer, and then cut the short bark with scissors.

This work really wasted a lot of Zhao Lan's effort, and her hands were beaten out of blisters.

Next, soak in water according to the steps and scoop it up with a bamboo curtain. A piece of wet paper is scooped up, drained, removed and placed in front of the stove to dry.

After a while, a yellowed piece of paper was formed.

Zhao Lan really didn't expect to make paper for the first time, and she was extremely excited in her heart, but she couldn't express it, the little hairy children who were younger than her at home couldn't understand words!

After being excited for a long time, my mood slowly calmed down. Looking back, the paper is unevenly thick, the paper is yellow, the edges are fluffy, the fibers are rough, and it is relatively thick to the touch.

Zhao Lan looked at the yellowed paper and thought: I can't write, how ugly is that! I guess I can only scribble this paper at home.

Zhao Lan was quite disappointed and ready to put it away, but Zhao Ju on the side was quite curious. Learn from Zhao Lan to touch and touch the paper.

"What is this? It's quite soft. It's like paper, but it's a little weird, is it your favorite color that makes it like this? ”

"Uh......"

Zhao Lan raised her head and looked at the puzzled Zhao Ju with a smile, and she didn't know how to explain.

I love white! It's a pity that it can't be done.

Let's let it continue to be expensive in Luoyang paper! Zhao Lan muttered in disappointment.

Zhao Lan touched the thick paper but thought: such a thick paper, you can make cards, it's fun to run fast, I haven't played cards for a long time, I really miss it!

The more she thought about it, the more Zhao Lan thought it was a really good idea. On rainy days, in addition to embroidery, you can also play cards.

Zhao Lan couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, and took the scissors without hesitation, and soon a deck of cards was ready. Looking at the cards that have been done, I wail in my heart: four but three, I can't play it! Yes!

After the grief and indignation, Zhao Lan looked up at the sky.

The sun gradually moved to the middle, and the sun was much stronger, so that people could not stay in the sun, and the figure of the person shining was slightly wester, and it seemed that it was about eleven o'clock. Zhao Lan complained again about the ancient times, it is not good here, there is no clock to see the time. If you want to know the time, you can only judge it from the shadow of the sun, or more realistically, whether you are hungry or not.

Speaking of hunger, my stomach is really hungry. If you get up at dawn and work, can you not be hungry? Zhao Lan rubbed her stomach and thought: What are you going to eat today? Ay! There must be no meat dishes. Meat dishes are not cheap! Anyway, there is a river here, and when you catch a fish and come back and burn it to eat, it's free. Chopped pepper fish head? Boiled fish fillet? Sauerkraut fish?

Oh, hey, my mom, I can't think about it anymore, the more I think about it, the hungrier I get. The cravings are coming out.

If you don't have sauerkraut fish, let's have a sour bean! It's all sour anyway.

Zhao Lan ended her cranky thoughts and got up to get the pickled capers. Last time, I pickled some more and took it out, and after frying it, I sent a bowl to grandma. It can be seen that Grandma Zhao also likes to eat. Anyway, there are a lot of beans in the field, and the marinating time is short. It doesn't matter if you want to eat it or pickle it.

Remove the capers and chop them up like last time. Stir-fry the non-spicy ones first, and give them to eat; Then stir-fry it with a little spicy and eat it yourself.

Zhao Lan was thinking about things randomly, but Zhao Ju shouted: "Brother, brother, brother is back?" ”

It's another day off. It is said that "ten years of cold window suffering", I see, in terms of reading, there is no modern child suffering. Modern children make up for it in the morning and make up for it in the evening, and there is no time to rest at all.

The topic is far away.

"Brother" Zhao Ju's affectionate voice came.

"Brother Liu." Zhao Ju's voice came again.

Brother Liu?

Who is Brother Liu? How I haven't heard of it, I haven't seen it.

Zhao Lan looked towards the door, and her eyes suddenly widened.

Young Master Liu?

Young Master Liu of Liufu. How did he get here?

Looking at Liu Gongzi, who had already walked in front of him, Zhao Lan hurriedly greeted: "I've seen Liu Gongzi."

Liu Gongzi shook the fan with the pompous logo of the disciples, and said that there was no need to be polite, but his eyes looked around the courtyard.

I wondered: Are the living conditions of the peasant households so good now? The yard is like a garden. The life of farmers is also very particular. I also got a stone bench and a stone table to put in the yard, which is better than the Nanshi courtyard where I live!

Liu Gongzi patted Zhao Chun's shoulder: "Brother Zhao's family is very elegant!" ”

"Passing the prize."

"There are a few pots of those flowers on the south wall, which seem to be the same variety as those sent to my family. There are also many flowers that are not quite alike, I don't know what they are, but they seem to be quite beautiful. Liu Gongzi asked, pointing to the flowers on the south wall.

Where did Zhao Chun know what kind of flower it was, so he called Zhao Lan to answer.

Liu Gongzi is not a bad person except for a little child's illness.

Zhao Lan looked at the flowers pointed to by Liu Gongzi and introduced them to him one by one.

Zhao Lan said: "These pots are beautiful cherry blossom ......"

"Hey, that's a pretty name."

As soon as Zhao Lan introduced a flower, she was interrupted by Liu Gongzi. Zhao Lan rolled her eyes. Liu Gongzi, don't you hear the word beauty, just come to work, just the name of a flower?

Zhao Lan fell in Liu Gongzi's words, and then introduced: "This is petunia, these are these two pots given to the house, this is periwinkle, the flowering and fruiting of the warm climate can last for a year, so it is called periwinkle, all the time is like spring, the flowering time is relatively long, probably only petunia can compare with it." However, the whole plant of this flower is poisonous, and accidental ingestion will cause fetal malformations, so it is okay to touch it slightly. These are starry skies, and they are about to bloom, with small white or red flowers, dotted among the green leaves, as beautiful as the little stars in that vast sky. This is six times the profit has not yet bloomed, and it is estimated that it will have to wait until ......"

Zhao Lan introduced them one by one. I don't understand what Liu Gongzi is here for, and my brother doesn't say anything.

Liu Gongzi walked to the stone table, pointed to a deck of playing cards on the table with a fan and asked, "What is this?" I see you just got it. ”

Feed! Why are you so curious? What do you care I do? I don't want to tell you, but if I tell you, you become a gambler, and your father won't beat us all to death.

"Just some paper, just random drawings."

After speaking, Zhao Lan reached over and planned to put it away.

"I'll see, you take it slowly." Liu Gongzi grabbed a few cards that he had never put away, picked them up and looked at them, "It's really a scribble!" Why is this paper so thick? I've never seen it, and the color isn't right. Inferior paper. ”

Liu Gongzi picked up a few and put them on the table.

If you're not interested, if you can understand, you've found a companion, but unfortunately you're not. You have good eyes, you can even know the inferior paper, thank you so much that you can't look at it! Zhao Lan was there alone, thinking about herself.

Since you don't like it, we are not in a hurry to accept it. Zhao Lan folded the cards neatly and placed them on the table.

Liu Gongzi looked at Zhao Lan, who was panicking to accept the paper just now, and in a blink of an eye, he was not nervous again, and he put it on the table casually after folding it. Am I too sensitive? Liu Gongzi looked at the cards, looked at Zhao Lan, who was standing respectfully on the left side with his head bowed, and thought to himself.

There must be something wrong with this paper. This sister-in-law saw that I was looking at the paper, and her expression was a little wrong.

Zhao Lan's heart was devastated, your son is too careful and sensitive! I glanced at you, and you looked at the cards again with a look of suspicion. You just see the evening from the morning, you don't cross the human clan, you can't understand anything.

Zhao Lan was calm, you can't understand it anyway, you can't understand it, and it's useless to doubt it.

Looking at the sister-in-law's cool expression that you can't understand, Liu Gongzi really lost to her.

"Young Master Liu, which pot of flowers do you like? Moved to the car for you? Zhao Chun looked at the dark tide surging between Liu Gongzi and Zhao Lan, which didn't seem to be appropriate, and hurriedly asked.

"That's it, these pots!" Liu Gongzi no longer stared at Zhao Lan, and casually pointed at a few pots of flowers with his hand and instructed the little servant Qiuping, "Move to the car, purse?" ”

Qiuping took out his purse and handed it over, and hurriedly instructed the groom who came with him to move the flowers together.

Liu Gongzi handed the purse to Zhao Chun: "This is the money to buy flowers, be sure to accept it." ”

It turned out that I came to buy flowers.

"It's just a few pots of flowers, it's not worth much, it's all planted by my sister to play. You see that there are so many in the yard, they are worthless, Brother Liu, don't be ashamed of me. "Zhao Chun doesn't accept it.

Liu Gongzi threw it to Zhao Lan, and Zhao Lan hurriedly followed.

"Then, this is my gift to my sister, it's okay!"

Zhao Chun couldn't answer.

Zhao Lancai doesn't care about him, of course he has to collect money when he moves away, especially this kind of son's money, if he doesn't collect it, he won't give face! Of course you have to take it.

"I heard that you picked the seeds of the Gentleman's Orchid, did the seeds germinate?"

"The seeds have just been soaked, they haven't been planted yet, and this is the seed."

"Why haven't you planted it yet? Why soak in water? ”

"The seed skin of the orchid is relatively thick, and soaking it in warm water can make the outer skin rise to help the seed germination."

"Warm water? It's so complicated. ”

"Seed values are quite time-consuming."

It wasn't that Liu Gongzi reminded Zhao Lan that she was about to forget, Zhao Lan resigned from Liu Gongzi and hurried to plant Junzi Orchid. In fact, it is very good to plant, the soil has been mixed yesterday, today you just need to put the seeds on top and then cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil, you can do it.

Here, Liu Gongzi did not say goodbye, sitting leisurely on the stone bench, drinking the tea brewed by Zhao Ju, and talking nonsense with Zhao Chundong and the north and the south.

Zhao Lan planted a good gentleman and didn't bother to listen to their chat, just looked at the sun father-in-law had risen to the old height, Liu Gongzi sat there without moving, Zhao Lan thought about Liu Gongzi It seemed that he was going to eat at home.

What to eat?
