Chapter 63: Impressions

Although it was packed in a hurry, the courtyard was neat and clean, which shows that the people who cleaned it up put their hearts. Before stepping into the main hall, Lin Ning glanced at the two pomegranate trees standing on both sides, which could be said to be leafy and fruitful, and couldn't help liking it in his heart, dyeing his smile on his eyebrows, and with a turn of his eyes, he made an arrangement: "These two pomegranate trees are very good, we will come down and send them home after two days off, so that my mother can taste the taste of childhood!" ”

The two elders of the Yuan family left early, this small courtyard is one of the thoughts left by the two elders to the children, when Yuan Xiuqin was not married, she stayed in this small courtyard, and later had two children, and often took the children back to her parents' house, Gu Shaoqiu's childhood memory, the memory of this place is also very deep.

"Mom must be very happy!" Gu Shaoqiu nodded approvingly, the daughter-in-law was careful and proper, and it was right to listen to the daughter-in-law, "When grandpa and grandma are here, every year when the pomegranate grapes are ripe, they will always be sent home." Later, the two old people passed away one after another, and my mother was too sad and sad, so she didn't come here often! In the following years, he went to the southern battlefield with the troops, and wandered between the wars, rarely returned, and the place was almost deserted.

"Just looking at this small courtyard, you know that the two elders are people who can live, but it's a pity that the two elders left early and couldn't get a sentence or two to mention!" Lin Ning also sighed a little, but it was difficult to achieve both things in the world, and the literati festival, in that special period, they did have to be treated with some humiliation, and it was a pity that the two old people were unfortunately encountered. Fortunately, at this time, the two of them did not rely on the past and the present, and they were grateful for two sentences, and the two entered the living room one after the other.

The seats in the hall are complete, all of them are old-fashioned furniture left by the old man at that time, high-quality sturdy and good materials, elegant and finely carved without losing the unique atmosphere of the north, when no one lived before, they were properly taken care of moisture-proof, and Gu Shaoqiu deliberately scrubbed and cleaned it in the morning, just to use.

The two bedrooms in the east and west have beds, and the layout is almost the same, Gu Shaoqiu pointed out and introduced: "A-Ning, there is a desk by the window in the east room, which is convenient for you to write and study, you live in the east room, I settle down in the west house, you can call me at any time if you have something!" ”

Yuan Xiuqin prepared clean bedding for them, stuffed in the back seat of the car and brought it over, Gu Shaoqiu wiped down the old-fashioned shelf bed in the morning, and the quilt had been laid out, and the quilt on top was habitually folded into tofu blocks, which was very consistent with the style of the army. These internal affairs may be a troublesome matter for ordinary men, but for Gu Shaoqiu, who has lived in a military family since he was a child and enlisted in the army, it is just a casual matter, not worth mentioning.

"Okay!" Lin Ning nodded, it was just a place to sleep, she was not picky, Gu Shaoqiu had already done it properly, so she would follow Gu Shaoqiu's arrangement. Looking around, there is nothing that needs her to intervene for the time being, what should be done, Gu Shaoqiu has already settled down in the morning, and she is now waiting to enjoy the diligent and useless.

Simply, thinking that it was already noon, Lin Ning couldn't help but say, "Are you hungry?" Is there a fire in the kitchen? I'll go to the kitchen and see what's going on, and I'll make a lunch! Thinking that her mother-in-law had prepared a lot of things for them in the morning, there was no shortage of food in them, and Lin Ning gave full play to her expertise to prepare, so that it would not be difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

Waiting for Gu Shaoqiu's confirmed nod, Lin Ning asked Gu Shaoqiu to put her schoolbag on the table, and the two went directly to the kitchen. The kitchen is located in the east wing, and when you go out, you turn a corner and enter the kitchen. This still follows the previous arrangement of the Yuan family. The Yuan family has a small population, only Yuan Xiuqin, an only daughter, who lived with her parents in the main house on weekdays before she got married. Therefore, half of the east wing of the Yuan family is used as a kitchen, half is a storage room, the middle position is just a dining room, and the west wing opposite is reserved as a guest room.

In the morning, the space in the car is limited, and Yuan Xiuqin also wants to prepare for the little couple, and she also wants to prepare for the little couple, feeling that the son and daughter-in-law are the first time that the young couple have started to live, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar tea... I want to prepare everything, so that the small couple does not have time to find out the environment and is too late to buy, and it is inconvenient everywhere. Gu Shaoqiu was not very good at cooking these things, he brought them in step by step, just neatly arranged.

Lin Ning took a look, there were not many kinds of things, but they were varied, and everything was complete, thinking that there would be classes in the afternoon, it was too late to do complicated things, and Gu Shaoqiu was a big man, so he had to do something solid to fill his stomach.

After reading it, Lin Ningxin finally made up her mind, she chose a piece of fat and thin pork belly, which was probably cut directly from the vegetables that her mother-in-law bought at home in the morning, and the best part was fat and thin, with five distinct layers. I also mixed some green onions, ginger and garlic, as well as soybean paste made by Aunt He herself, as well as hand-rolled and sun-dried noodles made by herself, "Let's eat noodles at noon, Shaoqiu, my mother prepared meat and sauce for us, I'll fry some dried meat and make fried noodles to eat!" ”

"Okay, Aning, is there anything I can do for you?" Gu Shaoqiu has never met the cleanliness of a gentleman's cooking, his daughter-in-law cooks, he can't do much fine work, and he can slowly help his daughter-in-law. By the way, look at how the daughter-in-law cooks, and when the daughter-in-law is not in the future, he can also help the daughter-in-law cook and eat, saving the daughter-in-law from being tired from class for a day, and having to work for them three meals a day when she comes back.

"Then please help me wash and chop the pork belly into minced meat!" With Gu Shaoqiu's help, it would naturally be faster, Lin Ning did not refuse, and naturally instructed. A friend from a previous life once said that a man who is willing to cook for you is an object worth considering. Gu Shaoqiu has this heart, not the one who sits and waits for food, Lin Ning naturally added an extra impression point to the small book in his heart.

If you want to cook in the pot, Gu Shaoqiu may be difficult, but for Gu Shaoqiu, who has also helped his mother with chopping bone dumpling stuffing since he was a child, chopping meat foam is really not a technical job. When Lin Ning picked the garlic peel and picked the green onions, put them in the pot to water the water, and heated them on the fire, Gu Shaoqiu chopped up rhythmically with a knife. The man's hands are strong, Gu Shaoqiu is still the best among the trained, and after a while, he chopped a piece of pork belly into a big meat cube that he wanted to see.

"That's a good job!" After glancing at Gu Shaoqiu's results, Lin Ning was very satisfied, cocked her thumb and praised with a smile, opened another stove, and put oil on the fried scoop that wiped off the water stains on the shelf, she took the knife in Gu Shaoqiu's hand, and cut some green onions, ginger and garlic in the corner of the board, and when the oil in the pot was hot, the green onions, ginger and garlic were stir-fried in the pot, and the meat foam was carefully stir-fried, and when it was yellowed, she added the soybean paste she made, hooked in the appropriate amount of sugar and other appropriate seasonings, and it was already fragrant and fragrant, and the dried meat was done!
