Chapter 48 The red hijab is a red veil
Mingyue, who was still gloomy just now, admitted for a second, showed a smile that she thought was the most flattering, took the pig's tail and said, "Master, although this thing is unsatisfactory, it can't stand the apprentice's craftsmanship." Can do, can definitely do. ”
Cheng Yue showed a satisfied smile, and that smug look made Mingyue have to suspect that Cheng Yue had already regarded himself as a plaything to pass the boring time.
Cheng Yue leisurely turned back to the small hut inside the fence wall, obviously, he had regarded this place as his own home, and the dove occupied the magpie's nest so justifiably.
Mingyue dragged the wild boar back home with blood in one hand, although she secretly hated Yue's training method, but the effect was still very much praised, for example, Mingyue's hand strength was much greater than in the past, Mingyue's speed was much faster than in the past, and even her eyesight was much clearer than before.
When he got home, he asked the star to ask Han's father and son for help, and as soon as Han entered the yard, he was startled by the bloody wild boar, which was even more terrifying than the first time.
The first time Mingyue dragged back the wild boar that Chengyue had changed for salt, he explained that the wild boar had killed himself, but this time it was bleeding from the knife, and the discerning person knew at a glance that it was stabbed to death with Mingyue's firewood knife, and there was more than one knife.
Han Xing looked at Mingyue with a worried face and said, "Mingyue, you, are you okay?" Han Xingyu remembered how scared and broken he was when he hunted a newborn white rabbit for the first time, and wanted to comfort Mingyue, but he didn't know how to comfort him, so he just asked in a wooden manner.
Mingyue wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, sighed, and said, "It's a lie to say that you're not afraid, when it rushed towards me, I thought I was going to die." Between my death and its death, I had no choice but to choose that it died. ”
Mingyue can even clearly feel the wild boar's unyielding eyes before dying, staring at herself fiercely like that, for a moment.
Mingyue suddenly felt a pain in the tiger's mouth, it turned out that Han Xing found that his right hand was oozing blood, and took out a red handkerchief from his arms to wrap the wound, it hurt raw, this pain, as if all the pain cells in the body had been revived, and the forehead, cheeks, elbows and other places that were dragged by the wild boar were painful.
Mingyue was successfully attracted by the pattern on the red veil, raised it suspiciously, looked at it, looked at it, looked at it, and muttered in a low voice: "Isn't the red veil popular now?" What is not good to embroider on it, how to embroider two big roosters? This chicken is long enough, if only it lived, it is better than the big rooster that died in my house, and my old hen Luhua will definitely be able to match. ”
Han Xing looked at his treasure-like red hijab distressedly, and used it to help Mingyue wrap the wound with ruthlessness, the wonderful phoenix on it was turned out to be a big rooster by her, not to mention how aggrieved she was, but after thinking about it, Mingyue said that she was paired with the old hen, didn't it imply that he and she were like this phoenix and hen, looking like a phoenix and a hen, looking like a pair, but could they be paired together?
Thinking like this, Han Xing suddenly felt ironed in his heart, and his face couldn't help but flush, and he used to clean up the pork to cover up his shy appearance.
Liu went to the river to wash clothes and came back, pushed open the yard, and saw Mingyue with a red Xipa tied on her wrist, and Han Xing looked happy, frowned, wanted to say something, and remembered Mingyue's suicide by hitting her head some time ago, and finally swallowed the words that came to her mouth.
Liu pretended not to see the red handkerchief on Mingyue's hand, turned his head to look at the wild boar on the ground, and said in surprise: "Han Xing, you and your father have hunted wild boars?" So big? It must be more than 200 pounds, right? ”
Han Xing was immersed in Mingyue's joy of accepting him, his face was as red as the most beautiful peach blossom in spring, quietly blooming, listening to Liu's question a second time before hearing the question, scratching his head and just about to explain, Mingyue had already picked up the conversation and said: "Mother, yes, this time it was hunted by Brother Han Xing himself, and Uncle Han doesn't know." We took the pig out of the water and fried it at night, and Mingyang almost didn't eat his tongue last time. ”
Seeing Mingyue say this, Han Xing had no choice but to nod his head, acquiescing that the pig was hunted by him.
Because the weather is already cold, the pork can be sold early the next day after being cleaned up, Mingyue will stir-fry the pig heart, pig lungs and so on, and divide it into three parts, one for the Han family, one for their own family, and the other for self-evident, naturally for Cheng Yue on the mountain.
Because there is only one pig's tail, and it is short and small, Mingyue can only be cut into round sections, and after braising it, it is a plate of hearts. Although there is no soy sauce seasoning and coloring, it is still fragrant, Mingyue said angrily while setting the basin: "Tell you to eat the pig's tail, tell you to pit me, and when you finish eating the pig's tail, you will shake your head like ecstasy, exhausting you." ”
There is a folk saying that people who eat chicken feet are not skillful, and people who eat pig tails love to shake their heads, which is actually a trick for adults to deceive children.
Mingyue wrapped a small bag of pig offal and pig tail in oiled paper, tied it firmly with a rope, and hung it directly on the tail of the "flirting girl", so that it could be sent to Chengyue at the foot of the mountain.
Tethering food to the dog's tail is Mingyue's temporary idea, tethered to the back instead of tethered to the front, and the donkey grinds a reason, is to let the "flirting girl" can smell, but can't see the food, want to eat food, even if his body turns into a circle, he can't bite, as for the process of delivering food, whether the "flirting girl" will pee or fart is not something that Mingyue can consider and is willing to consider.
Eating the fragrant pig's tail, Cheng Yue didn't think of the probability of this possibility, so fragrant that he wanted to swallow the oil paper package into his stomach.
The next day, Mingyue got up early, and Han Xing promised her to accompany her to sell pork today.
When they arrived in the county, because they arrived early, the two of them didn't go to the same trouble as selling pork last time, Han Xing directly led her to his old patron, although the price was not high, but fortunately, it was convenient to accept the whole pig at one time, so as not to sell Han Xing and Mingyue piece by piece of meat.
The whole pig got more than three taels of silver, remembering that Mingyang loves to eat the candy man he bought back last time, and the two went to the kidnapper Hu who sold food.
Compared with the bustle of the last time, the street entrance is sluggish, and the faint flow of people is pouring towards the middle street. Mingyue bought the candy man, and asked the old man who sold the candy man in surprise: "Uncle, why is this person going, why don't you even look at the stall?" ”
The old man sighed and said: "Alas, it's not all lively, the old Xu family is selling money to pay off gambling debts, and the big guys want to take a look, see if they can pick up the leak, and maybe buy a little girl back as a second room." ”
Mingyue felt a sour feeling in her heart, buying and selling people is a very common thing here, and it is even more sad to see it.
I wanted to go in the opposite direction, but I heard that the daughter-in-law of the old man who sold sugar was also sad, and seemed to say to herself: "This old Xu family is defeated in Xu Second-hand, the good tofu workshop is defeated, and after the pit is completed, even the daughter-in-law and son will be sold, I don't know if this old Li Touer can stop it." ”
The old man glanced at his daughter-in-law with disgust, and said with some taste: "Are you a pity that you can't eat Lao Xu's genuine tofu in the future, or is it a pity that Lao Li Touer can't go through the streets and alleys to sell beans?" Don't care what you think, Lao Li Tou doesn't have a single extra copper plate at home now, how can he stop Xu Er? This is a loose house. ”
Mingyue's footsteps that had already left were stuck in place, and the subtle words of Lao Li Touer and making tofu seemed to pull her to explore the situation, and her footsteps couldn't help but follow the direction of the people's surge, and Han Xing had to follow behind.
At the end of the street, the crowd was surging, the mood was high, grinding shoulders and looking forward to it, Mingyue forcibly squeezed into a gap and stood in the front row.
In front of you is a small courtyard with red lacquer doors mottled and staggered, with the vicissitudes of dilapidation. An old wood-colored plaque is placed in the corner, engraved with four big characters of "copper plate tofu", the words are like a swimming dragon, and the copper color is primed, indicating its former glory.
In front of the door of the small courtyard, there were things in densely smashed straw bags, obviously quite large living creatures, arching and moving inside, almost breaking out of the bag, the appearance of the living creatures diligently seeking and longing for life, let Mingyue stagnate with her breathing.
A fierce-looking man pushed a man in his forties out of the yard, impatiently let go of his hand, and the man who was pushed shook his body three times, almost fell to the ground, barely stabilized his body, and made a long bow to the crowd: "Fellow villagers, my Xu Er stall has fallen into a family disaster, I can't, so I have to sell my wealth and relatives, I hope that all the fathers and villagers will see the relationship between my Xu family and your neighbors for more than 20 years, and buy my Xu Er's relatives back and treat them well......."
The man shook his head to the ground as he spoke, and his sad appearance made the listener cry bitterly.
When the vicious man saw Xu Er's words, he pointed the finger at himself, and the villagers all looked at him with resentful eyes, which meant to criticize the valve.
The man didn't do it anymore, and then scolded Xu Eryi, and said angrily: "Don't get cheap and sell well, when you frame the archway, let the villagers say that I Chai Qiyin is ruthless, you owe me the gambling debts in the past with this tofu recipe and the yard has been offset, I don't want you to be a big family, it was you who died last night and begged for white and gambled, and gambled on the chickens, donkeys, and people of the old Xu family." I only agreed that your daughter is good-looking, which Cheng thought, you would have sold your daughter to Qinglou for twenty taels of silver, so that Lao Tzu's bamboo basket was empty, and it was all rags and bargains. ”
The more the ruffian Chai Qi spoke, the more angry he became, he was a famous "jackal" in Chaoyang County, playing him like this, if he didn't want to get the money back, he really wanted to eat this Xu Ersheng alive.
The more Chai Qi thought about it, the more angry he became, the more he thought about it, the more itchy his hands and feet became, and he came up to Xu Er and punched and kicked again, without mercy.
Xu Er suddenly dodged with his head like a rat crossing the street, and when he hit the two sacks on his side, his little eyes lit up and said, "Chai Ye, the little one has an idea!" Chai Qi stopped when he heard this, Xu Er hurriedly stood up, and tried to squeeze out a smile: "Chai Ye, you always love to open a casino, why don't you set up another gambling game to ensure that these rags are worth more than my daughter." ”
Chai Qi thoughtfully, Xu Er attached his mouth to Chai Qi's ear, and whispered, Chai Qi smiled while listening, patted Xu Er's shoulder approvingly, and said with a smile: "The tofu made by your kid is very white, and the heart is black enough, Lao Tzu is in a good mood today, and in the future, this Chai Ji Tofu Workshop will be managed by you, your wife is over seventy years old, and it is not worth much if you sell it, so you will stay with the old donkey as a companion and grind tofu to sell together." ”
