After she left, Shen Yue still had a trace of grievance on her face, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, sometimes the strength of the masses is also very important.

I took a bite of the bun, and the rough texture made my throat hurt.

When they got home, Zhang and Li Chengdu didn't get up, Shen Yue carefully hid the scarf that Aunt Liu gave her under the thatch she was sleeping on, so she went directly to the stove room and chopped the unchopped firewood.

After chopping wood, he took out all the fish in the basket and cleaned them.

There are four of them, each weighing about three or four catties, enough for them to eat for a long time.

Here, the most common way to cook fish is to grill it, shave it open, carefully rub salt on the front and back sides, and then grill it on a low fire.

The fatty fresh fish is grilled with fat and drips on the fire, making a sizzling sound.

Shen Yue took advantage of the fact that she was still grilling the fish, and boiled a pot of porridge, although it was white porridge, but Shen Yue was still very attentive, her mother once said that the simpler the more the patience and craftsmanship of the cook.

The white porridge is thick, almost all the rice grains are boiled, and the essence is all integrated into the soup.

The grilled fish gradually exudes the most primitive aroma, the firewood is extinguished, and a grilled fish is ready, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, without too much seasoning, but it is better than the deliciousness of the meat itself.

The rest of the fish naturally couldn't just be left like that, so Shen Yue disposed of them all. Then apply more salt than before, until the fish is soaked in salty, then pat off the excess salt on the surface, wear it with a rope and dry it on the beam outside the stove, and wait until it dries, it is a pickled fish that retains the original flavor of the fish.

After Shen Yue cleaned up the stove, Zhang and Li Chengcai got up slowly.

The soft glutinous porridge and grilled fish had already been served on the table, and Shen Yue stood aside with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes as usual, and did not serve the table to eat.

But Zhang was obviously not ready to let her go, and kicked Shen Yue to the ground.

"What are you doing here?! Don't finish the work yet! When the work is done, go to the mountains to get some wild vegetables and come back! Zhang shouted.

Shen Yue clutched his aching chest and slowed down on the ground for a while before getting up.

When she left, she glanced at the table, and according to Li Cheng and Zhang's stormy appearance, it was impossible to leave her with anything left in the end.

Shen Yue walked to the yard, fetched a bucket of water, and was about to wash the rest of her clothes, but she only ate one steamed bun, and she was a little uncomfortable with hunger.

She endured hunger while washing clothes, and at the same time thought about how to deal with Zhang's mother and son.

"Brother Cheng, Brother Cheng!" At this moment, a crisp sound sounded at the door.

Then, a girl with a bun jumped in, her face was a little round, her eyes were wide, her face was still pampered with pride, she was wearing an embroidered jacket, warm boots on her feet, and a gold collar around her neck, which was enough to show her status at home, which was in stark contrast to Shen Yue.

Shen Yue flipped through the depths of her memory and found that this was Xu Yingying, the only daughter of Xu Xiucai, the only big family in the village.

Xu Xiucai's family has rich assets, his eyes are above the top when he was young, and he has to take the exam to become famous before he can start a family, but it dragged to more than thirty, and he was just a showman, until Xu Xiucai's mother was critically ill, he was forced to give up the exam and take a woman from a neighboring village, but fortunately, the husband and wife were married for a few years, and they had nothing to do, and the husband and wife looked for medical advice everywhere, until Xu Xiucai was forty years old, and only then did he get such an only daughter as Xu Yingying, which was naturally a baby, and Xu Yingying didn't know what was wrong, actually fell in love with Li Cheng, and since then, he has often come here to look for Li Cheng to play.

Zhang's family is naturally happy to see it, Xu Xiucai's family has a big business, I heard that he is still doing business in the town, and there are seven or eight family members at home, it can be said that he is the master of the same thing in this village, and even the village is relying on Xu Xiucai, if they get this big money, their mother and son will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

The idea is very good, but Shen Yue will definitely not let them be satisfied.

When Xu Yingying passed by Shen Yue, she stopped, and kicked the wooden basin in front of Shen Yue with her feet wearing delicate embroidered shoes, almost kicking it over, but Shen Yue hurriedly protected it.

"I said you, why are you still here and not leaving? Don't you know that Brother Cheng and Aunt Zhang hate you very much? My father often said that people want to face trees and bark, and you are so shameless. Xu Yingying's tone was unceremoniously, I don't know what Li Cheng said to her, Xu Yingying has always disliked Shen Yue, and every time she sees it, she can't help but add a bad word.

Shen Yue lowered her head, in the eyes of others, she was ashamed and speechless, in fact, Shen Yue began to think very calmly in her heart, glanced at Xu Yingying's smug expression from the corner of her eyes, and said in her heart, since you are so polite, then I will borrow you to achieve my first step.

"Yingying, you're here, come into the house, don't get angry with these shitty things." Li Cheng and Zhang walked out, Zhang's old face was full of flattery, and his eyes were about to fall on Xu Yingying's gold collar.

Li Cheng also showed what he thought was the gentlest smile, Shen Yue wanted to vomit when he saw it, but he was fascinated by Xu Yingying, and when he saw Li Cheng, he blushed, full of Sichun girl's appearance, which made Li Cheng very proud.

After Li Cheng and Xu Yingying entered the room, Zhang's original face was exposed: "Hurry up and put away the bowl, if you collide with the nobles, you can't afford to sell it!"

"Yes, Erniang, I'll go now." Shen Yue promised to dry all the clothes at hand before going to collect the bowls.

After everything was taken care of, the forest fish carried a sickle and a bamboo basket on his back and went to the back mountain.

Due to the cold weather, the mountain road was frozen, Shen Yue had to go up the mountain carefully, fortunately, the mountain road was not very steep, and it didn't take long to reach the mountain, and was about to pick wild vegetables, Shen Yue suddenly heard some movement in front, she took the sickle in her hand, and carefully walked over to check.

"It's unlucky! It's not good to hunt anything, hunt this thing! A gruff voice sounded ahead.

Shen Yue pushed aside the half-human-tall weeds in front of him, looked over there, and saw that the person who spoke was a cow from the village, with brute strength, and it was said that he hunted some inedible beasts in the mountains all year round, and then peeled off their skins and sold them.

"Uncle Zhuang." Shen Yue stepped forward with a smile, and Niu Da's strong and sharp eyes eased the moment he saw her.

"Yue girl, what are you doing in this mountain alone? There are so many beasts here. Niu Dazhuang kindly reminded.

"I'll come up and pick some wild vegetables, Uncle Zhuang, what did you hunt today?" Shen Yue leaned forward curiously.

Her eyes lit up when she saw the animals in the trap.
