Chapter 186: Lotus Root Stew
The couple rested for the night, and the next morning began to repair the house. When he got up in the morning, there was nothing to eat in this house, and Su Mi remembered that when he went out to pick celery yesterday, he saw a lot of lotus roots by the river. Although it is late autumn now, the river water is a little cold, but in this shallow water, the white lotus root is still very easy to dig.
Seeing the man cutting trees in the woods at the back of the house, Su Mi rolled up his sleeves and went to the river. In this shallow water, it is easy to dig up four or five lotus roots. The river is clear and clear, reflecting the houses of the village and the woods behind the houses, and the Daishan Mountain in the distance is hidden in the fog, which is very comfortable to look at.
After digging this lotus root, Su Mi will wash the lotus root with sludge with the clear water in the river. It is estimated that the water here is relatively clear, and after washing it, Su Mi saw that this lotus root was even more delicate than the lotus root in the river in Zhaojia Village. With a gentle pinch of your hand, it seems that you can pinch out the water.
Su Mi was holding this lotus root and was about to go home, looking at the lively market, which was several times more lively than the market in Zhaojia Village, as if walking on the streets of the capital. It's just a village, why is it so lively.
Thinking about buying something, Su Mi squeezed into the crowd. I knew that this year is the hairpin festival here, and many people will use it to do business.
Su Mi only bought some steamed buns and two bowls of noodles, wrapped them and walked home. Zhao Laosan saw that she had been out for so long and hadn't come back, and was about to go to the river to find her, but when he saw her smiling and standing in front of him, his heart softened, and he was relieved.
"Lady, we don't know each other well, so it's better not to go out and walk around!" Zhao Laosan took the lotus root and noodles in her hand, and saw that the lotus root was as white as flour, and it was very tender in her hand: "Why does the lotus root here grow so well?" ”
"Husband, go buy some meat and come back, at noon, let's eat this lotus root and stew!" Su Mi's brown eyes were clear, like a pool of clear water.
Seeing her smiling, her face was fair, and the scabs on her peach lips were a little better, Zhao Laosan knew that she liked this place, and she was happy: "What the lady says is what it is!" ”
After Su Mi finished speaking, he quickly tied the apron around Ying Yingyi's waist, stood on tiptoe, reached out and pinched the man's knife-like hard cheeks: "Husband, I feel that this place seems to be more comfortable than Zhaojia Village!" ”
Zhao Laosan took advantage of the situation, hugged the little lady's waist, and let her soft and boneless body stick to her chest: "It seems that the lady likes it here!" At first, I was still worried, afraid that the lady would miss Zhaojia Village too much and would not be used to coming here! ”
Su Mi nodded, pouting, the palm-sized cheeks, gentle and quiet, the densely curled eyelashes were shadowed on the face, "I don't know why, I always feel that this is a new beginning for me and my husband!" ”
The people here are all smiling, not like those village women in Zhaojia Village. When Su Mi first got married, she was said by those village women to be goblins, and she was said to be the nemesis of men who specialized in children...... She endured them one by one!
The two of them had breakfast with a smile and a smile, and after eating, Su Mi began to clean up the dust inside and outside the house. At home, a lot of furniture was still in use, and the man cut down the tree, rebuilt the tattered roof, and covered it with some thatch.
After noon, look at the house again, there is already a look, this stove room is cleaned, this bedroom is also neatly laid, and this hall and the front and back of the house, look like a new house.
The man's roof hadn't been repaired yet, and when he saw that Su Mi was about to cook lunch, he came down to rest and just helped her cook lunch together.
After all, repairing the roof and chopping trees is manual work, the man is shirtless, and he is sweating all over, Su Mi pinched his sleeves, wiped the sweat on the man's body, and handed it to his man with a bowl of water: "Husband, rest for a while, the roof of the side house over there, you can ignore it for the time being!" ”
Where is Zhao Laosan who is a procrastinator, took the bowl in the little lady's hand, and drank all the bowl of water in one go. Su Mi knew that he was very tired, so he took the bowl in his hand again, scooped a bowl of water and gave it to him: "Husband, after lunch, let's go out to the market and buy some things!" ”
After drinking two bowls of water in a row, Zhao Laosan eased up, handed the bowl in his hand to his little lady, and reached out to pinch her face: "Lady look at it, but this partial house has to be repaired quickly, it is estimated that it will rain tonight!" ”
The two of them went to the stove room with a smile, Zhao Laosan lit the fire, and Su Mi stewed the lotus root. There are no other dishes at home, so the lotus root Su Mi is placed on the cutting board, cut into pieces with a kitchen knife, and stewed in the pot with the meat.
The two of them had just moved, and the condiments in the head stove room of the house were not complete, so Su Mi only threw some spices into the meat, which smelled fragrant. If you put less of this condiment, it seems that the original fragrance of this ingredient will be more intense.
Just eat a dish, Su Mi was afraid that the man would feel greasy, so she asked the man to look at the fire in the pot, she went to the river and pulled a handful of green water celery, put it in the pot, scalded it with hot water, scooped it up, and ate it with garlic foam.
It's already half of the afternoon, the two of them are sitting on the table, eating lotus root stew and cold celery, Rao is this lotus root is too delicious, this broth is white, it smells fragrant, this meat is more lean, less fat, eat, full of oil, but it doesn't feel greasy at all. Changsha
After lunch, Su Mi cleaned up the stove room. This stove room is too spacious, bigger than their bedroom in Zhaojia Village. If you hold up the window, you can see the river. After cleaning up, I saw that the stove room was neat, and in the water tank, the man carried a jar of clean water, and his heart was sweet, as if he had smeared honey.
Seeing that the man was still on the roof, she was a little tired, so she went to sleep in the bedroom for a while. Although there is only one bedroom here for the time being, this bed is made of fine pine and cypress wood, and there are delicate carvings on the railings, and the wardrobe in the house is also wide and dry, and she lies on the bed, and she falls asleep in a while.
When he woke up, it was already evening, hazy, as soon as Su Mi opened his eyes, he saw the man sitting on the bed, and stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around the man's neck: "Husband, has the roof of this partial house been repaired?" ”
After finishing speaking, Su Mi lay on the man's shoulder, tossing all the way for the past few days, and today he has been busy working inside and out, he is really tired, relying on the man, this sleepiness has not woken up.
The man picked her up and clinged to the man, and Su Mi was very sure-footed. The man hugged her, as if he was hugging a soft cloud: "Is the lady hungry?" ”
Su Mi shook his head, supported himself from the man's shoulder, and held the man's face with a pair of small hands: "Husband, I'm a little hungry!" ”
The man carried his little lady to the stove room, and saw that her sleepy eyes were hazy, and her small and gentle cheeks had a trace of blood, and the black green silk was a little messy, and there were broken hair on her forehead and neck, which was a little charming. With her like this, I really love and pity her, and I am reluctant to put her down.
Sitting on the table, still holding her. Su Mi was also reluctant to let go of the man, leaning on his strong chest: "Husband, can you hold me for dinner?" ”
The man was afraid that it would be uncomfortable to hold her, so he wished to hold her like this, and he never let go: "Okay! ”
The man ate the leftover lotus root stewed pork ribs at noon, and went to the market to buy some fruits and vegetables. At night, there are two more dishes, one is mapo tofu that Su Mi likes to eat, and the other is boiled fish.
Because the little lady has not recovered after giving birth, the man put less boiled fish condiments, and only sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions, but this original taste tastes very fragrant.
Still the same as when he was in Zhaojia Village, the man took a plate, carefully shaved off the bones of the fish for his little lady, and then sandwiched it into Su Mi's bowl.
Su Mi sat on the man's lap, her petite figure was like a doll of her husband, holding the dishes and chopsticks in her hands, eating the fish here.
"Husband, this fish is so delicious, did you buy it at the market?"
The man lowered his eyes and glanced at her: "This fish was caught in the river in the afternoon!" ”
It was the first time for Su Mi to eat such a delicious fish, not to mention that the meat was fresh and tender, and the fish was particularly fragrant when she was in Zhaojia Village before, she often ate fish, but compared with this fish, the taste was much worse.
"If the lady thinks it's delicious, eat more!" Zhao Laosan scooped half a bowl of white raw fish soup for her, and the fish soup was floating with dots of green onions, which tasted fragrant.
Su Mi held the fish soup, drank it all in one go, and the man put another fish in her bowl: "Lady eat more, I'll catch some fish tomorrow!" ”
After dinner, the man cleaned up the stove. Su Mi was covered in dust, boiled water, took a shower and hair. The man hugged her to the bedroom, and when he saw that the bedroom was spotlessly cleaned, his heart was very relaxed, "Lady, go to bed quickly!" Tomorrow, I'll go and cultivate a vegetable field, so that we can grow vegetables to eat! ”
Su Mi turned sideways and snuggled into the man's arms. Zhao Laosan has been tired for a day, and when his calloused hands touch this creamy and tender skin, his head unconsciously becomes bulging. Since Su Mi's miscarriage, the two have passed without clouds and rain.
After all, such a flower-like person is by his side every day, the man endures it for a long time, and his heart is hot, and the extremely thin lips are covered with it, slowly sucking the fragrance on her shoulder. The freshly washed green silk was casually draped on the pillow, wrapped in this fragrance, and the man's strong body began to slowly lose strength.
Su Mi knew that her husband wanted to be intimate with her, so why didn't she hold the man's neck with a pair of small hands: "Husband...... I ......"
