Chapter 10 Burning Artichoke

When Su Xiaoluo came out of the house, he took a few potatoes, put down the things in his hand, and saw that Ji Hua was not crying or making trouble, so he went out to find a branch.

"Sister, why are you going?"

"Find some firewood to light a fire, or it's too humid in the house, I'll burn potatoes for you to eat later!"

Ji Hua picked up the artichoke brought by Su Xiaoluo and looked at it carefully, can you eat this thing?

After burning two firewoods, the dampness in the house was almost gone, and Su Xiaoluo dug a pit in the charcoal fire with a wooden stick and buried the four artichokes.

"Sister, didn't you say we were going to eat this? How did you throw it in the fire. ”

"You can eat it in a while, Ji Hua, you really don't plan to find your relatives!"

Ji Hua's eyes rolled: "My sister is my relative!" I've found it! ”

"When you grow up, you'll be a master of flirting!"

"Sister, what do you call a master of flirting with girls!" Ji Hua adheres to the principle of asking questions if he doesn't understand.

"Ahem! Little one, wait until your eldest sister explains! Now I'm going to close the door, eat the potatoes in a while, and let's sleep!

This can be had, Ji Hua likes the faint fragrance on Su Xiaoluo's body very much, which smells much better than the young ladies and ladies he has seen before.

It's a taste that makes you want to get close to her!

About two quarters of an hour later, Su Xiaoluo took out the artichoke from the ashes, wiped the floating ash clean, peeled one off and handed it to Ji Hua.

"It smells so good!" The steaming artichoke has a special aroma that is different from the taste of big fish and meat, but it can arouse the appetite.

Ji Hua, who ate roasted potatoes for the first time, ate them in one go, if it weren't for Su Xiaoluo's fear that he would have a stomachache at night after eating too much, it is estimated that there would be no last one left.

"Sister, this is so delicious, let's continue to burn it tomorrow!"

"You like to eat these things! Then I'll take you up the mountain tomorrow, where there are wild duck eggs, mountain eggs, and nuts are all delicious. ”

"Okay!" Ji Hua jumped up and cheered.

There was no oil lamp here in the old house, and the two of them were lying on the bed after wiping it in a daze, Ji Hua was worried about going up the mountain, and asked Su Xiaoluo a lot of questions. In the end, Su Xiaoluo couldn't bear it anymore, and threatened Ji Hua that if he didn't sleep again, he wouldn't take him up the mountain tomorrow.

"Then I won't ask, sister, go to sleep!" Ji Hua arched into Su Xiaoluo's arms and closed his eyes.

In the morning, when the sky was just bright, Su Xiaoluo went home to make breakfast, helped grandma bring breakfast into the house, thinking of the little squirrel and the long-tailed bird asking her to dress up well today, she opened the box and picked it for a long time, found a set of clothes that were half-new and not old, with relatively few patches, and changed them in, and combed two braids.

"Xiaoluo! Is the kid you picked up still living in the old house? Su Qin asked with concern.

That little one! It's better than his own adaptability, so you don't have to worry about him at all.

Afraid that he wouldn't be able to come back to cook at noon, Su Xiaoluo took a cake for his grandmother: "I'll bring you something delicious at night!" ”

Su Qin told her granddaughter not to worry about herself, she could eat less and go to the thatched house a few times, so that everyone could save some trouble.

Taking advantage of the time when Zhang Xingye slept back to the cage and didn't get up, Su Xiaoluo left quickly, and returned to the old house Ji Hua hadn't woken up yet.

"Little lazy worm gets up, I'll count one, two, three, if you don't wake up, I'll go by myself!"

Ji Hua rubbed his eyes with his hands, and after sitting up, the two of them stared at each other: "Little guy, I didn't expect you to be a handsome guy." "Su Xiaoluo loved to watch cute babies in her previous life, whether they are male or female, whether they are cute or cute, she likes them.

"Sister, you're good-looking too." Yesterday, Su Xiaoluo entered the county seat and deliberately covered most of his eyebrows and eyes with long bangs, and his face was darkened.

In order to leave a good impression on the "boss", Su Xiaoluo cleaned up very carefully, and his face was clean and beautiful, like a flower blooming in the morning, fresh and dazzling.

Her beauty is not delicate, not feminine, very kind and atmospheric, Ji Hua is not yet old enough to appreciate girls, and she can't think of accurate words to describe her feelings in her heart, she only thinks that Su Xiaoluo is good-looking, and she likes her from the bottom of her heart.

"Let's go! Let's go up the mountain! Su Xiaoluo took Ji Hua's hand and walked in the direction of Xiaoqingshan, walking from the foot of the mountain to the cave for half an hour.

"It's so tiring to climb the mountain!" Ji Hua put his hands on his knees and gasped, he used to feel tired of squatting and practicing boxing, but today he saw Su Xiaoluo walking in front of him without changing his face, and when he got to the place, he went to light a fire and boil boiled eggs, he felt very ashamed, he was actually compared to a girl.

After going back, you must exercise diligently, and no longer shout that you are tired and don't say that your life is hard.

Su Xiaoluo boiled two wild duck eggs for Ji Hua, a dozen mountain eggs, and there were six wild duck eggs left, and she planned to bring them to her grandmother when she went down the mountain.

"Sister, what are you eating?" Ji Hua mistook mountain eggs for quail eggs, and wild duck eggs for eggs, thinking that he could eat real game by following him up the mountain?

Egg...... He's not uncommon!

Su Xiaoluo smashed the hazelnuts with a stone to eat, and heard Ji Hua's words explain: "This is a kind of fruit, the shell is hard, there are nuts inside, it is very sweet, do you want to taste it?"

Ji Hua nodded, the two of you, one by one, ate the nuts that Su Xiaoluo smashed.

"This fragrance is better than eggs!"

Where did the eggs come from in the cave, when Su Xiaoluo figured out what was going on, he held his stomach and laughed for a long time: "Silly Jihua, those are wild duck eggs and mountain eggs, not eggs!" ”

Wild game! Ji Hua hurriedly peeled a wild duck egg and tasted it, it was indeed not the same flavor as the egg, the duck egg was clear and bright, and it was particularly chewy when you took a bite.

After eating and drinking, Su Xiaoluo remembered that he hadn't seen the little squirrel and the long-tailed bird this morning!

Are they going to greet the "boss"? Su Xiaoluo was both curious and a little afraid of the mysterious boss, afraid that a tiger would suddenly break in after a while.

Ji Hua wanted to go around the mountain, but Su Xiaoluo asked him to wait.

"Sister, are you waiting for someone?"

"To be precise, wait for a few animals, Ji Hua will see a beast or something in a while, don't be afraid, my sister will protect you."

This time, Ji Hua didn't make noise and went up the mountain, he was very curious about what kind of animal Su Xiaoluo was waiting for.

About half an hour later, a little squirrel ran into the cave first: "Sister, sister, our boss is here!" ”

Su Xiaoluo hurriedly stood up, whether he can make a fortune quickly depends on the results of meeting with this "boss" today, if he can leave a good impression on "him", even if he can't find ginseng, at least he can find some valuable herbs!

She wants wild soybean seeds, wild sweet potatoes, purple potatoes, and buckwheat to be good things, and it would be better if she could find corn, so that the quality of life of the people can be greatly improved. If nothing else, it is definitely not a problem to eat a full meal, so you don't have to eat unpalatable black bread and grains every day.

The forty taels of silver in his arms Su Xiaoluo was not ready to move for the time being, and went back to the village to inquire about the current land price before making a decision.
