Chapter 03: Clever Tricks
"Brother Shan, look what this is, this is a villain, he wants to fight with you, you see his mouth is wide open, do you see?" Brother Shan saw that Shen An'an said something interesting, so he immediately stopped crying. Staring at the big black eyes, drooling at the corners of his mouth, but he squeezed the wooden man tightly in his hand, and said vaguely: "Fight, fight!" ”
Seeing that it was really effective, Shen Anan immediately quickly took the soaked handkerchief and wiped the corners of Brother Shan'er's mouth clean.
Fortunately, Brother Shan didn't have much strength, the scissors were scratched at the corners of his mouth, and the opening at the corners of his mouth was not big, and there was a lot of blood in front of him. It's scary. Fortunately, Brother Shan was also solid, and when his mouth was broken in front of him, he cried, and then played with the little wooden man.
Shen An'an quickly pinched the smashed rhubarb and pressed it directly on Brother Shan'er's mouth a few times, because she was afraid that it would not stick, so she mixed some brown rice noodles. In this way, the mashed rhubarb can be firmly under the corner of the mountain brother's mouth.
"Hey, it really works, it's not bleeding." The Cao family began to be suspicious of Shen An'an's words. Seeing that she coaxed Brother Shan to stop crying in three or two clicks, and she could still put the rhubarb on Brother Shan'er's mouth steadily, Cao Shi immediately believed it.
Shen An'an saw that Cao's was no longer noisy, and hurriedly said: "That's, this rhubarb is a good thing." She was about to introduce the function of rhubarb when she realized that she was an occupational patient. Thinking that there were still steamed sweet potato balls on the pot, she hurriedly said. "Oops, my balls." Then he ran outside in three or two steps.
The two people in this room stared wide-eyed.
At this time, the Cao family had already helped Shen Anting and sat on the bed.
Shen Anting saw that the Cao family still didn't believe it, so he began to persuade him: "Mother, I'll just say that since our sister An fell into the water, she has also figured it out, and she is really much more stable in doing things." ”
Cao Shi pursed his lips and said, "What's the matter, she's just a blind cat touching a dead mouse today, she really thinks she is something." ”
Shen Anting listened to his mother's words, shook his head in disagreement, and said: "Mother, in fact, I won't tell you, I haven't let Dr. Song come these days, and the medicine on my leg was also changed for me by Sister An, she said that she learned a few times with that old man." ”
Cao's face showed a look of disdain, and he said with a serious face: "A girl's family, why is it useless to learn this?" As soon as Cao Shi finished speaking, he thought about it carefully, and felt that something was wrong there.
Then he turned to Shen Anting and asked. "Brother Ting, you said Sister An, did you lie to us, did she learn from the stinky boy next door." Cao knew that Shen An'an had gone up the mountain to collect firewood in the past few days, and he had gone up the mountain with Wang Song. Although she didn't say it, she understood it very well in her heart.
"I don't know. Mother, in fact, I think it's good for Sister An to be like this. "At least, in Shen Anting's eyes, my sister is much more lively and cheerful than before. Now, if she can learn to see a doctor personally, if the family is uncomfortable there, she doesn't have to spend any more money.
Cao Shi disagreed with her son's opinion, but she was thinking about something else. "Well, you think doctors are so easy.
"How did I hear that they were in charge of the house next door, and they used to be doctors, and in the end, they didn't end up with a good job. Their mother and son were left out, if it weren't for the people in our village who took them in. Where are they? ”
Shen Anting laughed at Cao's short-sightedness. "Mother, you listen to the hearsay of those people outside, who knows what the truth of the matter is. Sister An, if there is really that creation, it will be a blessing for our family. Which dynasty, this doctor is not respected. Besides, now Sister An'er happens to be embarrassed, if she can really help people see a doctor, we don't have to worry about finding her in-laws. ”
Cao Shi glanced at his son again and said, "Look at your beauty, how can this matter be so simple, you can see a doctor with a medicine." You have a good rest, I'll go out and have a look. ”
Shen Anting nodded, thinking to himself about Cao's words. Thinking about the changes in my sister these days, there is also a hint of melancholy in her expression. Thinking that he didn't know when he would be able to heal his injured leg, he couldn't help but look at the roof in a daze. Then he was seen groping under the pillow, and took out a yellowed piece of paper from underneath, on which he had drawn strange patterns with black charcoal.
Can this really be done? Shen Anting looked at the drawing, stunned.
When Cao came to the kitchen, Shen Anan had already made sweet potato balls, which were being loaded into the bamboo basket. In a large urn, there was most of the urn of vegetable porridge, and in a bowl there were seven or eight balls that I couldn't recognize.
Seeing the sweet potato balls, Cao's eyes lit up, but he didn't recognize it, but the smell was very fragrant. Hurriedly asked, "Sister An, what are you doing, and who did you learn from?" ”
Shen Anan immediately squinted his eyes and smiled: "I heard that the chef made it by the chef, called sweet potato balls." So I learned to do it, mother, how about you taste it? I'll send it to my father. ”
Cao Shi smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but reach out to take it, but Shen Anan hit him with chopsticks, and was glared at by Cao Shi fiercely. Shen Anan immediately retracted her hand, only to hear her explain with a smile: "Mother, this sweet potato ball has just come out of the pot and is very hot." I was afraid that your hands would be hot, and this one has brown rice flour added to it, so it's a little sticky. You can't give Brother Shan a lot to eat, beware of choking. ”
Cao didn't take Shen An'an's words to heart, so he immediately took chopsticks, took a sweet potato ball, and put it in his mouth.
I just think that the taste is soft and glutinous, and it has a sweet taste, and it is very good to eat. It's much better than the brown rice noodles they eat every day with shaved throats.
"What did you do about it?"
"It's made with steamed sweet potatoes and brown rice noodles."
"What is a sweet potato?" Shen Anan listened to Cao's words, and she was called a sweat in her heart, she didn't pay attention, and brought modern words to ancient times. She forgot about the people here, calling sweet potatoes yams.
"It's a potato, I heard the chef call this sweet potato." After Shen Anan finished speaking, he grinned, and then hung the bamboo basket on his elbow.
Although Cao Shi thought it was delicious in his heart, he didn't praise Shen An'an in his mouth, for fear that if she praised her twice, she wouldn't be able to find the north.
Cao Shi immediately said to Shen An'an: "While it's still hot, hurry up and send it to your father, and you can come back before dark." ”
When Shen Anan thought that he would have to walk nearly ten miles later, he secretly complained in his heart. Xindao, her freshly knitted straw sandals are estimated to be worn out by those sharp stones in less than three days.
But what could she do? If she refuses, she will definitely usher in another scolding from the Cao family, so it is better to go early and return early.
Fortunately, she had already drunk some vegetable porridge and eaten two sweet potato balls in front of her, her stomach was full, and she had the strength to walk when she could walk.
"Remember to come back early, don't play outside." Seeing that Shen An'an was about to go out with a bamboo basket, Cao Shi did not forget to tell behind her.
Shen Anan was most annoyed by Cao's noise, and she said it a few times, but she was not deaf, and couldn't help frowning impatiently: "I know Mother, I will come back early." ”
Cao Shi saw Shen An'an go out of the gate and walked in the direction of the quarry, and she went to the room with vegetable porridge and sweet potato balls.
