Chapter 19 The fragrant smell of lo-mei

As early as not long after the spices were thrown into the pot, the Song family was already standing at the door of the stove house.

Li An kept twitching his nose, "It's so fragrant, it's really fragrant, what is this cooking?" ”

Li Mu, who has always been more steady, couldn't help but come over, "Cousin-in-law, what the hell are you doing, this is too fragrant, my saliva is going to flow out." ”

Father Song stood behind his two nephews with his eyes blank, and stood on tiptoe to look into the room, "Old woman, old woman, you and Gu Xiao...... What are you doing with Ryu-hee? ”

Aunt Song was about to laugh out of tears, not to mention the two young nephews, Daddy Song, who was staring at the house with hooked eyes, looked like a house dog raised by a big family in the town, as soon as he smelled the aroma of food, his neck stretched out and his tail wagged vigorously, hoping that the owner could leave some bones for it after eating.

When the laughter was enough, Aunt Song went out and knocked on the head, "What's the hurry, wait for Liuxi to make it, I'm afraid that you will be missing?" ”

Daddy Song was not angry when he was beaten, hehe smiled. Since her little grandson was sick, the old woman has never laughed so happily, if it weren't for Gu Liuxi, it would be a question of whether he could make the old woman laugh from the bottom of her heart again in his life.

Father Song was grateful to Gu Liuxi from the bottom of his heart, not to mention anything else, just to make the old woman happier, he would treat her as a benefactor.

You must know that over the years, the life at home has become more and more difficult, and after the little grandson fell ill, Aunt Song washed her face with tears all day long, and her eye disease became more serious.

Father Song saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart, his daughter-in-law had been married to him for so many years, and she had not lived a good life for a few days, she had to support the four children of Uncle Song's family, two children in her own family, and the brothers of the Li family, the burden was getting heavier and heavier day by day, and her health was getting worse day by day.

The family is so poor, but Aunt Song has never disliked it, she works hard and resents it, and pulls the children to grow up.

Fortunately, he married a good wife, otherwise this life would not have gone on.

In the evening, Gu Liuxi finally cooked the lo-mei, in addition to the wild boar, she also threw some dried tofu into it to cook, and then put it on a plate.

The rich and fragrant marinade naturally can't be used only once, Gu Liuxi scooped up a part of the marinade, sealed it and put it in the cellar, and iced it with natural well water, the taste will be more fresh and strong next time.

There is also a part of the brine, Gu Liuxi is planning to come to marinate the fat sausage, the fat sausage taste is too strong, and the brine can't be marinated after use, which is a pity.

The fat sausage was cleaned by Song Yu according to her method in the afternoon, and after washing it for an afternoon, she dared to put it in the pot when the taste was gone.

When the braised fat intestines were cooked, and the wild boar and dried tofu were also cold, Gu Liuxi picked the fat and tender pork thigh meat to cut into slices, put it on a plate and serve it on the table.

Except for her, the family of five gathered at the table, looking at the lo-mei on the plate, looking forward to who would taste it first.

The color of the lo-mei is golden and bright, it looks like a ball of gold from a distance, and the fragrance is even more early to arouse everyone's gluttony, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is fragrant for ten miles, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of flavor it will be when you really eat it in your mouth.

"Taste it, give me a review, if it's delicious, it will be sold on the street tomorrow." Gu Liuxi covered her mouth and snickered.

The family looked at each other, and no one dared to move the chopsticks first.

"Taste it, I'm stunned what to do, I didn't poison it." Gu Liuxi urged.

"So, I'll try it first?" It was still Father Song who was brave, picked up a piece of wild boar meat with chopsticks, and slowly put it in his mouth to chew.

Gu Liuxi asked nervously, "Dad, how is it?" ”

Father Song paused for a moment, and then he didn't have time to answer at all, one chopstick after another, and large pieces of lo-mei kept stuffing into his mouth, where was he free to answer Gu Liuxi's question?

When the others saw Daddy Song's appearance of eating so much, where were they willing to wait for him to reply? So several people at the dinner table picked up the chopsticks one after another, and the moment the lo-mei was put into the mouth, they were stunned, and then it was like clockwork, only to see the chopsticks moving back and forth between the plate and the mouth, so fast that there was only an afterimage, and a large plate of wild boar meat was snatched up in an instant.

Seeing this, Gu Liuxi immediately went to the stove house and cut out a large plate, and also put the braised dried bean curd on the plate, so that the family could eat something else to change the taste after eating enough meat. In addition, she also cut some fat intestines, but Daddy Song and the others didn't eat what it was at all, and swallowed it in their stomachs without asking.

One night, the Song family's stomach was bulging, and they couldn't move when they sat on the stool. Gu Liuxi took the initiative to take over the job of washing dishes, and went to the stove house to wash dishes with a smile.

Aunt Song had the heart to help her, but unfortunately she couldn't move because she was too strong, and her stomach seemed to be bursting, so she had to stand in place and walk lightly, not daring to move too much.

Gu Liuxi was just about to wash the dishes, but Song Yu put on an apron and gently pushed her away.

"Do you want to wash the dishes?" Gu Liuxi glanced at him, "If it's uncomfortable, go out and take a walk, and I'll wash the dishes." ”

Song Yu shook his head, "You've been tired all day." ”

But isn't it, in the morning, I helped sell wild boar, went to the medicine hall to buy medicine, and then walked all the way home, and then prepared lo-mei, and was so busy that I didn't take a break until I ate, and then came to wash the dishes after eating, how could she stand it?

Gu Liuxi also felt tired, so he simply sat on the threshold and looked at Song Yu.

In all fairness, if there is no scar on the left side of his face, this person is really a very handsome guy, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a high nose bridge, and a resolute and smooth facial contour, which is perfect from the side. It's a pity that when you look at it head-on, the hideous scar is really too hard to look at.

Just like the guy in the medicine hall during the day said, Song Yu's injury was obviously cut by a sharp weapon, what kind of person is so ruthless, can be so vicious on the face of a handsome guy?

It is actually not difficult to remove the scars, if the medicinal materials are ready, Gu Liuxi is confident that she can help Song Yu restore her original appearance, but she has no money on hand now, she can't afford to buy a large number of medicinal materials, and it is not realistic to blindly go to the mountains to pick them.

First, there is a seasonal limit on the growth of medicinal materials, which season can be harvested and what medicine, this is all destined by nature, not that she Gu Liuxi can pick whatever medicine she wants, and secondly, many medicinal materials are processed in cumbersome steps, which require a lot of time and energy, and Gu Liuxi currently does not have the opportunity to concentrate on studying drugs.

Song Yu washed the dishes, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw that Gu Liuxi was sitting on the threshold in a daze, his delicate little face sometimes showed a thoughtful expression, and sometimes he frowned tightly, as if he was being troubled by something and couldn't get an answer.

Song Yu wanted to ask her if there was anything he could help, but after thinking about it carefully, so far he didn't seem to be of any use at all, whether it was the decoction of Aunt Song, or the lo-mei at night, he didn't understand anything, so how could Gu Liuxi discuss it with him?

Song Yu clenched his fists, and once again secretly hated himself for being incompetent, he couldn't shelter his daughter-in-law from the wind and rain, but had to rely on the other party to support the family.

If only there was something he could do, Song Yu thought sincerely.
