Chapter 395: The young man is nowhere to be found
In my sleep, I heard the sound ......of the rain beating on the windowsill outside, and woke up in a daze, and found that it was raining continuously, and a gust of wind poured into the cracks in the windows, which was damp and unpleasant.
I rubbed my temples and sat up, standing by the window to watch the rain, but I saw the silver rain falling from the sky, connecting the lead-gray sky with the lead-gray road, and the moisture hit my face, and the chill was soaking.
I put on my clothes and went downstairs, and when my mother saw me, she shouted: "You can be regarded as awake, hurry up and eat bacon fried rice, today a guest ordered a large amount of dim sum, a hundred jasmine cakes, where can your brother and your father be busy, you can also come to help." ”
I nodded hurriedly, took three steps and made two steps to the kitchen, lifted the lid on the stove, and the smell of bacon came to my nose. But when the rice is golden and soft, wrapped in a few pieces of mouth-watering bacon, covered with fresh garlic sprouts and coriander, it arouses people's appetite at a glance.
Bacon is a good thing that can not be eaten by ordinary people, the color of the goods is better over the years, the fresh meat of the five flowers and three layers is hung in the air, smoked and roasted with cypress branches, after complicated processes, the juice is gradually solidified and sealed, the meat on the surface is extremely hard, but it has only increased the accumulation of fireworks, such bacon, the unique flavor of the bacon is rich and sweet, and it makes people linger for a long time between the lips and teeth.
The bacon is cut into thin slices, fried in the overnight rice, no need to add much spice, the rice is also covered with sweet and salty, rich flavor of cured meat, the meat is fragrant, the grains are distinct, chew in the mouth fragrant but not greasy, than the fresh meat fried can be much more delicious.
While eating bacon fried rice, I asked, "Mother, we have eaten the bacon smoked at home quite early this year." ”
Dad replied: "Where is your mother willing to eat the bacon at home, and she has to keep the bacon fragrant pot made in the winter and sold to Yanyu Pavilion to make money, these bacon were sent by Mr. Mo." "Snake Girl
The mother said angrily: "It's you who talk a lot!" When have I ever treated you father and daughter badly? The oily and slippery ones you eat one by one will depend on me, and in the future, I will teach you to eat boiled cabbage. ”
I hurriedly said: "Mother, Mei Cai has never said much, I want to eat cabbage heart, just teach my father to eat it." ”
Dad smiled: "This girl is actually double-faced now, beware that Dad won't tell you the old rules next time." ”
The family joked for a while, and the mother suddenly said: "Hey, the plum vegetables give us the way they are used to it, it doesn't seem like we can run a family, but I don't know when I can recruit it, and I am relieved." ”
Dad hurriedly said: "I feel that the little third son ......"
The mother said impatiently: "Little third son, little third son, you only know a little third son!" There are so many men of the right age coming and going on this purple jade hairpin street, do you only know a little third son? ”
Dad had to mutter, and suddenly a fellow brother said: "These days, I don't know if Uncle Mei and Aunt Mei have heard of it, on Ziyuchai Street, there seems to be some young men, who ran away for no reason, and I don't know what happened." ”
"Running away?" Niang Qi said: "Manly husband, where can I go?" Zuo just went out to do nonsense, I'm afraid that the family will know, find some excuse, and come back when I've had enough. ”
"No...... the guy's brother frowned, "Speaking of which, it's actually quite strange." "Hufu [Otherworldly]
The mother became interested and asked, "You should come and talk about it, what is the strange method?" ”
The brother thought about it, put down the dough in his hand, rubbed the noodles on his hands, and said: "Take our neighbor's Erlang as an example, the day before yesterday, he helped the family to harvest corn, said that he wanted to loosen the ground, and was ready to go to serve the wheat field, but he went with things, and he never came back at night, and the family was naturally anxious, for fear of encountering wild beasts, so they hurriedly went to the field to look, and found that the things in the loose land were still lost in the middle of the ridges, but the people had long been gone. ”
"Huh?" Niang Qi said: "In this way, it is clear that it has already arrived in the ground and disappeared in the ground?" ”
The buddy's brother nodded again and again, sighing, "Isn't it! In the past few days, Erlang's family has been very worried, and he went around to look for it, but he asked all the people he knew well, and he didn't inquire, but he asked out, but there were a few men of the same age as Erlang who were busy and disappeared inexplicably. ”
"Oh? Are they all young and strong offspring? Dad touched his stubble and said strangely: "I've heard of abducting and selling women and children for money, but how can a young and strong young man give birth to a uniform?" Could it be that you are going to be a strong man? ”
The man's brother shook his head in distress and said, "Who knows! In the past few days, several families have been worried, and they have gone around to inquire, but they can't get the point, this world is really getting more and more chaotic. ”
"That's right!" My mother looked at me in horror and said, "Last time, you said that you and Sister Val'er were guests at the Xia family, and you met a ghost, is it possible, what kind of demon is this?" ”
I shook my head and said, "I don't know yet, things are strange, and I must tell the Dragon God when I go back." "Supreme Enchanting
The mother nodded, and then asked, "Is the matter of the Xia family over?" ”
I nodded and said, "It's over, Sister Val'er made a big fuss at the Xia family, everyone who was noisy knew it, and for a while the glimmer of light was also famous, and it was said that it was a monster made by demons, no one dared to wear it anymore, and it was all burned, and it was said that the fire that burned out was also a demon fire, colorful, unlucky, the Xia family's reputation was discredited, and the shop business was probably struggling." ”
"This is that people die for money, and birds die for food," the mother sighed and said, "If you come up with this way to make money, you don't care about all the others, and it can be regarded as retribution." ”
"That's right!" Dad hurriedly said: "That's why I said, this money is not the most important thing, peace is a blessing, and contentment is always happy." ”
"You know what! Can people with no money live? Are you going to drink with your daughter? The mother glared at her father and said, "Speaking of which, you are lazy again, are the jasmine cakes in the silk shop complete?" I actually dared to take the opportunity to steal laziness. ”
When my father heard this, he had to walk away, so I asked, "Mother, which silk shop ordered jasmine cake?" ”
The mother replied: "At the east end of Ziyuchai Street, a new Miss Pavilion was opened, and there was only one girl named Mengling in the store, who was the boss and a man, saying that the new store was opened, and some jasmine cakes were given to the guests, and they begged for a lottery." It just so happened that the mother's sewing box was missing a few silk threads, and when you went to deliver the jasmine cake, you bought it by the way. Go out and bring a hat and a coat, this slow rain will last for a while! ”
I nodded busily.
