Chapter 60: Sending Lo'er Away
In the next two days, this Luo'er was very sensible, and every day except for three meals a day, he stayed in the side house on the east side. After Su Mi finished the work at hand, she would go to the side house from time to time to teach Luo'er to do some needlework.
The two summer dresses for Luo Er are also done, although the color of the fabric is a little dull, but they are all the best materials, this cloth is in Su Mi's hands, cut properly, the stitches are fine, and some juanxiu patterns are embroidered on the top, which is comfortable to wear and atmospheric and good-looking.
On this day, the weather was very fine. Luo'er has been raised at home for a few days, and her complexion has improved a lot. It seems that it has only been a few days, and this skin is much fairer. The hands that were originally rough are also a little softer to the touch.
The man went out to the field, and there were only Su Mi and Luo'er at home, and the two of them fed the chickens and ducks in the yard, and then went to the pigsty to feed the pigs. This piglet was strong when he came to Zhao's house, and it was only a month of hard work, Su Mi fed three meals a day, and this piglet grew a lot.
It's okay at home, seeing that Luo'er likes to eat some heavy-tasting snacks, she thought about making some spicy dried tofu and spicy dried bamboo shoots as snacks.
"Luo'er, there are a lot of dried beans at home, and the bamboo shoots are only pulled in the spring to be dried, why don't we make some snacks to eat!" Today's weather is good, Su Mi is white, wearing a light blue clothes, soft green silk like clouds, with a wooden hairpin, casually pulled up, looking like a little daughter-in-law. Luo Er looked at her as if she were looking at a painting.
"Sister Mi'er is really capable, you love to eat Luo'er!" Luo'er saw Su Mi go to the cupboard to get some sun-dried dried tofu, and hurriedly helped take out the basin.
Su Mi saw Luo'er smiling, and her heart was also happy, "When your aunt comes back, when she leaves, I'll get you more." ”
"Okay!"
When Su Mi was in the capital before, he had seen the food in the shop, but he didn't have the opportunity to cook it. Now married to Zhao Laosan, a strong man who hurts people and is diligent, everything in the family is superfluous, and he can do whatever he wants.
First, soak the dried bean curd in hot water, then take out a basin, pour in some dried bamboo shoots, and soak them in hot water as well. After soaking for half an hour, drain the excess water with a basket.
Luo'er sat at the table where she was eating, holding a basket and peeling garlic. This garlic was taken back by Zhao Laosan when he went to the ground a few days ago. It has not yet been dried, and the white skin is purple inside, and the white garlic cloves are exposed, and a faint garlic fragrance wafts in the stove room.
Seeing that the garlic was almost peeled, Su Mi took a kitchen knife and a cutting board, cut the raw white garlic into thin slices, and then chopped it into dices. Put it in a basin and cut some shredded ginger.
When all the materials were ready, Luo'er went to sit down in front of the stove and prepared to make a fire. Zhao Laosan's family has a lot of firewood, all of which are some dry branches and dry wood pieces, and the fire will burn after a while. Luo'er was diligent, the heat was well controlled, and the pot was hot after a while.
Su Mi rolled up his sleeves, revealing two white arms, poured some rapeseed oil into the pot, and scooped a large spoonful of lard and said. The stove room was fragrant and full of the smell of oil stains.
After the oil was hot, Su Mi first poured the garlic and ginger from the basket, and mixed some spices such as star anise and cinnamon. Let the loer in front of the stove burn the fire smaller, and the spices should be fried slowly.
After the fragrance is fried, all the soaked tofu is poured down, and the tofu is wrapped in bright orange orange. Fry the water of the dried hungry beans, and pour the dried bamboo shoots into it, the bamboo shoots are relatively tender, and they can't be fried for too long, if they are fried for too long, they will be dry, and they will taste very woody.
Finally, I put some chili noodles and sesame seeds, and then took a basin and scooped it out to cool. Seeing that Su Mi was holding a basin, Luo'er hurriedly extinguished the fire on the stove, stood up with a pair of dark eyes, and stared at the oily dried bean shoots.
"Cook some noodles at night, scoop a spoonful in a bowl, and eat them deliciously!" Luo'er swallowed her saliva when she saw it, where had she eaten these things before, and she had never seen it.
Su Mi saw her like this, she was distressed and hurriedly brought a bowl, picked a lot of dried bamboo shoots and dried beans, and brought a steamed bun to heat: "Luo'er, you just eat with steamed buns, see how your sister's craftsmanship is?" ”
Luo'er ate her mouth full of oil, and after a while, she finished eating the steamed buns in her hand. Seeing that she was eating so deliciously, it was estimated that her body was better, and Su Mi felt less guilty in her heart: "Luo'er, even if you return to your aunt's house in the future, you will often come to our house to play, and come to sit and sit from time to time, you are such a sensible doll, I and your brother Zhao like it!" ”
Luo'er chuckled, and suddenly cried, her eyes sour, and she cried: "Sister Mi'er, after I go back, I won't come!" ”
Seeing Luo'er's tears, Su Mi thought that she was uncomfortable staying in Zhao's house, so she hurriedly sat next to her and wiped the tears on her cheeks with her sleeve: "Luo'er, are you still feeling well?" If there is anything, you must tell me and you Brother Zhao, so that we can go to the town to show you Langzhong! ”
Unexpectedly, this Luo'er shook her head after hearing this, and the tears became more and more, big and big, falling down in a swoop: "Sister Mi'er, you are too good to me, Aunt Luo said that if I want to stay in your house, if I go back, I will break my legs!" ”
"That's all nonsense, Aunt Luo, I'll just say it!" Outside the stove room, Zhao Laosan's voice sounded.
"Husband, Luo Qinghe's aunt is estimated to be touched, but she has decided to eat us, and wants Luo'er to be your concubine when she grows up!" Su Mi also understands that such a sensible and well-behaved doll, if she really wants to go back to her parents' house and bring it back, isn't she a good hand at going to the ground?
"Sister Mi'er, Brother Zhao is honest and diligent, I like such a man, but Sister Mi'er is virtuous and beautiful, I can't listen to my aunt!" Luo Erding likes to be with Zhao Laosan, but seeing that the two are so affectionate, she is aggrieved, and she doesn't understand the love between men and women, so she only feels that she is down-to-earth in Zhao's house.
"Don't worry, I'll send you back!"
When Zhao Laosan came back when he went to the field just now, he saw Luo Qinghe just on the ridge, and after saying lunch, he sent Luo'er back. There are many people on this ridge, and the people in Zhaojia Village know about it, and it is not easy to say anything, so they should go down.
"Brother Zhao, I'd better go back by myself, if my aunt sees me go back, she will definitely scold me!" Luo'er blinked her dark eyes, overflowing with tears.
"Luo'er, you believe me, if your aunt scolds you for half a sentence, you will follow me back!" Zhao Laosan had already calculated in his heart, this Luo Qinghe was a widow. There is no man in the family, and what is lacking is money.
Hearing Zhao Laosan say this, Luo'er was relieved, Su Mi cooked a delicious meal, and the newly made sauce tasted sweet. After eating, he was ready to send Luo'er back.
Knowing that Luo Qinghe was uncomfortable, Su Mi wrapped the two clothes, and gave all the rest of the cloth to Luo Er: "The rest of the cloth, let's make clothes for your aunt!" ”
I also brought a few clay pots, filled most of the fried dried bean shoots, and took some dried fish before taking Luo'er back.
Walking on the ridge, Luo'er followed behind, looked at the sturdy back with a pair of eyes, and pursed her lips: "Brother Zhao, can I still come to your house to play in the future?" ”
"If you want to come, you can come anytime!"
Bypassing the two ridges, she saw Luo Qinghe's house, Luo Er was still a little worried, but she believed Zhao Laosan.
When I arrived at Luo Qinghe's house, the door was open, Luo'er called out to her aunt, and Luo Qinghe said loudly in the house: "Familiar with the door, don't you know that you came in?" ”
Luo Er was stunned, this life under the fence is not easy after all. The family was poor, so I had to endure it with my aunt, and smiled: "Auntie, is there no food at home, I'll go to the field to pick some vegetables and come back." ”
Luo Qinghe was about to count his niece, and as soon as he went out, he saw Zhao Laosan standing. Because it is oligo. Women, Zhao Laosan stood at the door and didn't go in, carrying a lot of things in his hands: "Aunt Luo, here are some sauce and dried fish, as well as two clothes made for Luo'er, you take it!" ”
This Luo Qinghe's life is also bitter, and his niece also wants to find a good family to raise and be a daughter-in-law in the future, so she is also relaxed: "Zhao Laosan, our Luo'er is tall and thin, diligent and quick, isn't it worthy to be your concubine?" ”
"Aunt Luo, Luo'er is still a doll, she doesn't understand anything, such a diligent and sensible child, she should find a good family when she becomes an adult!" Zhao Laosan handed the things in his hand to Luo Qinghe, and said softly with thin lips.
"Look at these children who are about the same age as Luo'er in these ten miles and eight towns, the family is too poor, this Luo'er gave it to you, and after two or three years, it will become a marriage, you live together with Hemeimei, where is it not satisfactory?" Luo Qinghe crossed his hands on his waist and said anxiously.
"Aunt Luo, I only have my wife in my heart, and I don't mean to take a concubine!"
"Although your lady is the most handsome in ten miles and eight towns, but this work in the field, I'm afraid there is no Luo'er Lisuo, this Luo'er follows you, your tofu business will be even more prosperous!"
Zhao Laosan's face was awe-inspiring, his narrow eyes were dark and the water in the deep pool, and he took out a silver ingot from his arms: "You take this silver, raise it until Luo'er is an adult, there is no problem, find her a family!" ”
Luo Qinghe's eyes lit up when he saw this complete ingot of silver, although it was that the money was worthless during the war, but this ingot of silver was still quite real. Luo'er has three or four years to get married, and in these three or four years, this doll can endure hardships and work, and this money is enough to feed.
"This ...... Zhao Laosan, since you don't like Luo'er, why do you treat her so well? ”
"It's all Mi'er's meaning, my lady is kind-hearted, and she also asked Luo'er to go to my house more often in the future, what is difficult about your Luo family, just squeak. It's just the matter of this concubine's room, auntie don't worry about it anymore, I only have my lady in my heart! Zhao Laosan handed the money to Luo Qinghe, turned around and left Luo's house.
This Luo Qinghe was quite convinced by this Zhao Laosan, put away his things, calmed down the complaints in his heart, and muttered in a low voice: "This Su Mi is a man, why is this life so good, marrying such a good man." ”
