Chapter 084: Stewed snow clams in coconut milk

What he was planning in his heart, Ren Yan didn't understand at all.

She buried her head and only cared about eating, while sending a spoon to her mouth, while pondering the color of the cherries is really pleasing, and turned back to tell the master that there is something to add to the color of the dim sum, and the rose water is an old yellow calendar.

Not only that, but in autumn, the begonia fruit is red and full of branches, and it can be taken down and boiled.

If you want to say the best begonia fruit, you have to count Baoding.

After all these days, don't you know that the fruit there grows honestly?

There is also spring is not old, when she escaped, she was ready to pick a basket and steam it or pickle it with salt, and when she ate it, she took out two and chopped it, and then fried it with shredded meat.

A bowl of fried cherries, eating so many ideas.

The bottom of the bowl was empty, she reached out to reach for the spoon to refill, and it was inevitable that she would be worried about the begonia fruit, and she could pick it in March, right?

I just don't know what it looks like, whether it's deep or shallow, and then point it on the surface, isn't it lifelike?

Just as he was full of longing, the spoon was taken.

She looked up along the handle of the spoon, and the top of the hand holding the spoon was beautiful, fair and slender, and her wrist bones were also good-looking.

The scholar didn't wear glasses today, his eyes were darker, and he looked at her thoughtfully: "Still eating?" ”

Can't, eat?

Ren Yan still looked at the cherry fried in the glass bowl, and then looked back at the beautiful and delicious people, and after making a difficult choice, he sighed: "What's the matter?" ”

The heart of struggle does not die.

Gu Tingwen took the spoon in her hand, took her bowl, and took a hot towel to press in his hand: "The cherries are warm, if you eat too much, the boils on the corners of your mouth are uncomfortable." ”

After coming back from Luanping, I was anxious to get on the fire, and within three days, a boil appeared at the corner of my mouth, which hurt for a long time, and there was no sign of disappearing for several days.

However, the more she didn't eat, the less comfortable she became.

She smiled, sat on a small wooden pier and looked up at him: "Eat another bowl?" ”

"Nope."

"Na, one bite, just one bite."

The beauty is blunt.

Ren Yan turned his back and ignored him, holding his chin and looking at the glass bowl aggrievedly, he didn't eat it, and just looked at it dryly.

Gu Tingwen sighed: "I won't eat with you." ”

How rare it is to die together!

She still ignored him.

The silent person coaxed the girl, looking overstretched, and thought about it before he spoke: "Do you want to make other snacks?" ”

I don't eat it, I don't make it!

She said whimsily: "I'm not a rice basket, I eat with all my might." ”

No more words.

He Quan came to clean up the dishes, glanced at the two of them cautiously, and opened his mouth to Ren Yan: "Miss Chengjia called, saying that she was stewing a toad at home today, and asked the girl if she could go, she would be waiting for a reply." ”

"Where? Go, go, go. She jumped up and blew like a gust of wind to the porter, and was too late to call back.

He Quan held back his joy, and whispered to Gu Tingwen: "The second master went home, dismantled the property division document and looked at it, he was furious, and beat the second young grandmother, and the male and female were fighting." ”

Gu Tingwen opened the newspaper again and read it slowly: "Did he repay his gambling debts?" ”

"Sixty percent has been returned, and the rest is still a bottomless pit, and the second master is on fire in his heart."

"Still not in a hurry enough." Gu Tingwen curled the corners of his lips, "Let Shi'an add another document." ”

"Yes."

He Quan responded and asked again: "The three outer rooms of the second master have entered Beijing together today, plus the two in the city, the little one went back to give the five little aunts and grandmothers a breath, isn't the second master worried that the family is not lively?" ”

Gu Tingwen flipped through the pages of the newspaper, and there was a faint smile on his face: "Go ahead." ”

"Yes."

He was alone in the courtyard.

The newspaper introduced the new members of the cabinet, and without the surname Gu, a Cheng family was added, which seemed panicked for a while, and groundless speculation occupied a large part of the page.

Sandwiched in the middle is the engagement ceremony of the two families who died halfway, with the front page, politics and marriage, which is extremely subtle.

Get married?

Cheng Shi'an.

The girl who answered the phone ran back, and a big braid on the back of her head was thrown in the air.

That's it.

He laughed, her peach blossom debt, let her dispose of it herself.

"This is leaving?" Gu Tingwen put the newspaper and looked up at her.

Ren Yan looked embarrassed: "I haven't seen Miss Cheng for a long time, and we are both panicked, and she has to teach me how well I can do in foreign literature, and by the way, let me see the stewed husky, so ......"

Everything has a priority, he believes in the affection between people and girls, but he also believes in the temptation of the husky toad to her.

"Will you come back for dinner in the evening?"

Ren Yan looked at him: "Do you cook?" ”

"Okay."

"I'm back."

Gu Qiye cooks, how rare it is, and I have a good mouth today.

She was excited in her heart, but because she threw people at home halfway, she couldn't bear it, and asked a lot: "Then I'm leaving, what are you going to do in the second half of the day?" ”

"Miss you!"

Gu Qiye put back his glasses, unfolded the newspaper, and smiled at the corner of his lips.

Ren Yanxin put the big hammer on her heart, and began to chisel again, making her dizzy.

Until I entered the door of Cheng's house, I saw Cheng Huiyu.

Her face was not very good-looking, and she wore a moon-white stand-up collar shirt, which made her even more sickly: "Xiao Yan, sit down quickly." ”

The smile was beautiful, but it was reluctant, and it was cold to reach out and shake her hand.

Ren Yan was a little anxious and touched her face: "Are you feeling unwell, didn't you call the doctor to come home?" ”

Cheng Huiyu shook his head: "It's just that I've had a bad time these days." ”

Ren Yan thought of yesterday's engagement banquet and fell silent.

Cheng Huiyu rarely said something depressed to her: "Brother Gu Shige spoke clearly to me that day, so I didn't even go out yesterday, but my father and mother complained about me, and I regretted it a little." ”

I'm afraid it's not as simple as complaining.

Ren Yan has also read the newspaper, Gu Cheng and the two families have long had the intention of marrying Qin and Jin, in addition to Gu Tingwen and Cheng Huiyu's childhood sweethearts, to complete the affection of their children, but also for the career and prestige of the two families.

When it comes to the current status of the two families, it is the latter that must be valued, and what is prevented is the emergence of the current situation. But now the Gu family is far away from the northwest, and the general trend has gone.

Ren Yan doesn't understand the future direction of the Gu family, but whether he is cooking Xiaoxian or governing a big country is a big taboo.

The alliance between the two families is broken, and it is not easy to make up for it; Cheng Huiyu has always been an obedient junior, and suddenly he has such an idea, and he has to be reprimanded harshly.

The more Cheng Huiyu thought about it, the more sad she became, and she couldn't help crying: "Now my father and mother don't plan to marry the Gu family again, and I have found someone from another family. ”

Ren Yan frowned: "I don't know people, I don't have feelings, I can't get married, and you're still studying, are you in such a hurry?" ”

"My mother said that I just read too much and confused my mind." The more Cheng Huiyu thought about it, the more sad he became, "Let me get engaged first, and when my brother gets married, let me marry." ”

"Do you know what kind of man the other party is?

Cheng Huiyu said: "It's from my father's colleague's family, and I know their sisters, but I haven't seen those gentlemen." My mother told me to pick among them as soon as possible, so that she could talk back. ”

Ren Yan couldn't cry or laugh.

What's the matter, it's not the Upper East Market to buy radish and cabbage, see which one is tender and fresh, and put it in the bamboo basket. Not being allowed to go to school and forcing her to pick a husband, isn't this a pit for your own girl?

Ren Yan lives a rebellion in her heart, which will make all her parents who have a family to make trouble, she ran out of Baoding by herself, and mixed well in Beijing, so she planned to lobby Cheng Huiyu.

She looked around, lowered her voice and said, "Otherwise, you can escape!" ”

Running away from marriage is not unusual, rebellion against arranged marriages and even divorces can be seen in newspapers all day long, and now in the Republic of China, more and more girls are pursuing liberation and freedom.

But Cheng Huiyu was still frightened, shaking her hand: "I can't do it, where can I escape, and how can I live?" ”

"You have read books, and you can speak foreign languages, so you can go to school and become a teacher."

Can a learned person starve himself to death if he finds another way out?

Cheng Huiyu's face turned even paler: "No, the territory outside is not peaceful, and there are often bad people, in case it ......"

Also.

She is a girl raised in the boudoir, unlike her own tailwind, how can she get by by fighting and falling, she doesn't know how to deal with messy people and things, what if there is another Wu Sihai?

Ren Yan pulled his braids and discussed: "If you go to Tianjin, if you are close, there will be people who can take care of you, incognito, your parents can't find it." ”

"But I don't know how to live alone, how to find a mother and a girl, how to rent a house, it's all hearsay......"

The more she spoke, the quieter she became, her face flushed and she shook her head: "No, no, no, I can't escape, I ......"

Ren Yan held her hand and tried to give her some strength: "You have the ability, you can find a job to support yourself, you don't need to rely on your parents, even if they force you to marry, you can't open your mouth." ”

What's more, it's the Republic of China now, and it's going to arrange an arranged marriage for a girl, do you want to save face?

To put it mildly, Cheng Huiyu shook his head.

Ren Yan didn't force her anymore.

When you go out for the first time, you will definitely mutter, what happens to someone or something, will there be danger, how to live?

She just left the house with her mother, and she was thinking about these things, so she felt Cheng Huiyu's fear.

There is no urgency in this matter, or else we will see the opportunity to steal her out and let her adapt for two days.

Her eyes rolled wildly, calculating her mind.

Cheng Huiyu knew her kindness, and she was afraid that she would say something rebellious, so she hurriedly took her to the back kitchen: "I want to eat stewed snow clams in coconut milk, I invited someone to make it, let's take a look." ”

The time when they came was just right, the master had just fished the husky toad into warm water and replaced it with clean water, holding a bamboo tweezer to pick up the black silk and sundries inside, picking it up and washing it and putting it in the white porcelain bowl.

The bowl contains half a cup of rich and sweet rice wine, cut the jujube in half and put it on the top of the toad, and the green onion and ginger are steam at the bottom of the bowl, and they are steamed in the cage drawer.

Wait for the ripe toad to come out of the pot, cook it with water, and put it in the boiling coconut milk.

The white syrup is like milk, with the smell of fresh fragrance and the sweetness of molasses, wrapped in soft and white husky toads, like ice beads picked out of the snowdrift, and then into the steamer to feather and ascend to the immortal.
