Chapter 5: Bright Mountain Gate

"It should be a long time to be busy tonight, so why don't you let me cook and let them clean up before eating." She said with a light smile that she felt relaxed and comfortable when she did these chores, and she would have done them before.

Just let my aunt taste my craft. She turned to look at Liu Li with a blank face.

The water in the pot was boiling even more at the moment, and the mist covered half of the room, and it was about to pour out.

"Auntie, the water is boiling, and it's going to go out." She pointed to the pot behind Liu Li.

"Oh, ah, ah? The water is fluttering? She hurriedly turned around, and reached out with a wooden scoop to scoop a few times, but it still had no effect.

Yue Niangzi felt very funny at the moment.

"Get the firewood out of the stove, auntie." She let go of the work in her hand and smiled lightly against the board.

……

……

Yue Niangzi stood in front of the desk and cut the pork she had just brought in, and Liu Li stood aside and watched her cook.

She has been cooking for decades, but she found that her cooking skills are not as good as the delicate little lady in front of her.

Chop the lean meat and put it in a bowl for later use, add salt, minced ginger, minced garlic, and then pour in a little oil and stir well with chopsticks.

Take a moderate eggplant, egg whites, flour. Stuff the minced meat into the sliced eggplant sandwich, stuff it, coat it with egg whites and flour, and fry it in a pan.

After frying, the oil is filtered out of the pan and plated, and it is called eggplant clips.

Cut the pork belly into slices and put it in the pot, add the potato slices after it is cooked, fry it together until golden brown, and remove from the pan.

It's called sautéed potato chips.

The gourd is steamed over high heat, pressed finely, added a little flour, put into the mold and compacted, and then cut into square pieces, steamed in the pot, take it into the plate and then pour honey.

Calling ...... Small snacks.

There weren't so many raw materials in the farmhouse, so Yue Niangzi picked up some simple ones.

As soon as the father and son entered the room, they smelled the aroma of the room, and there were several dishes on the table in the lobby. Liu Li was coming out of the kitchen with two bowls of rice, and he was unhappy when he saw his husband and son so impatient.

“…… The meals I cooked for decades before the relationship were not as good as the meal that Yue Niangzi cooked tonight. She put the meal on the table and inevitably became jealous.

The father and son turned a deaf ear, and after serving the food, they hurriedly fed it to their mouths. When Yue Niangzi sat down, most of the meals were solved, and Liu Li left some dishes for her early, otherwise, the chef would have to bear the risk of starvation.

……

……

On the second day, early in the morning, Yue Niangzi was wearing Liu Li's old clothes at the bottom of the box, the goose yellow gown and the tender yellow skirt were slightly large, and she pulled the gown up, revealing a small piece of white and tender skin on her wrist.

The spring day that had just snowed was still cold, and when the north wind blew, the cold hairs on the hands stood up.

Ah Han changed into a short coat of Gebu, still carrying a basket on his back, but it was much smaller than the one who carried it down the mountain yesterday.

Yue Niangzi walked up to him, "Don't I have to take something?" ”

“…… No, you don't. I don't have a lot of things today, and I'm enough for myself. He hesitantly said, "No, no, I used to be alone when things were a lot." He blushed.

Because the words he added were like showing off, others called him Liu Ahan, but he knew that behind his back, they would call him "stupid big man", he was a fool, what could he take out to show off?

"Yes." Yue Niangzi nodded, tilted her head and thought for a while before she said, "Then you are really amazing." ”

Ah Han's face blushed even more.

Yue Niangzi couldn't help but hook her lips when she looked at his red face, this man was really easy to blush.

The family lived at the westernmost end of the village, and to get to the county they had to go to the easternmost ferry, from where they crossed the river by boat.

Along the way, I met many early risers, and many women and daughters-in-law who went to the town with them. Seeing Ah Han, the two also came forward to say hello.

Among them, there are also the two young daughters-in-law who arrived home yesterday, "The lady is also going to that county." ”

Yue Niangzi nodded yes, and seeing that they were all going to the same place, she invited them to go along.

It is naturally unusual for there to be a little lady in the village, and after a few women chattered for a while, they moved their eyes to the body of the Yue lady.

"I heard Sister-in-law Liu call you "Yue Niangzi", so what is your surname? A woman asked, tilting her head.

"This ......" Yue Niangzi shook her head, "I really can't remember this." ”

"Can't remember?" The other ladies looked surprised, and the men who accompanied them also looked at them.

"How can you not remember, God, don't you know who your name is? Don't know your parents in your hometown? Someone asked.

Yue Niangzi still nodded.

At this time, the young daughter-in-law next to her sighed.

The crowd looked at her.

"What does the girl know?" Everyone asked, and Mrs. Yue also turned her eyes to look at the little daughter-in-law.

"That time, I saw the lady's clothes at Liu's sister-in-law's house, and I remember that the clothes should be in the style of Los Angeles." She said to Yue Niangzi.

"L.A." Yue Niangzi muttered.

"How dare you be sure?" Someone next to him asked.

The little daughter-in-law squinted at the man who spoke.

"You should know in Los Angeles, I went there with my brother once before I got married, and the most famous Shangyi Pavilion in Los Angeles, I saw this style there."

"When you get to Los Angeles, it's not far from Beijing." A woman looked at Yue Niangzi with a look of envy, whether she was from Los Angeles or not, just because her clothes came from the best cloth village in Los Angeles-

That's what makes people envious.

"You still have the money to go to Shangyi Pavilion." The other woman asked, surprised, and slightly amused, "The servants there didn't kick you out?" ”

The little daughter-in-law's face turned red, and she hurriedly put something to push the woman who had just made a noise.

The two made a mess, but Yue Niangzi looked a little dazed-

Is she ...... Shouldn't I go to Los Angeles to find out if I can find her parents......

She sighed.

Although Ah Han is a little stupid, he still has the ability to observe words and colors, and naturally sees that Yue Niangzi is absent-minded at the moment.

He lifted the basket up, "...... Lady, if your style of clothes is really from Los Angeles, then you should find a time to go and have a look. ”

Yue Niangzi moved her gaze back and landed on Ah Han's face, and Liu Ah Han was blushing again when she was looked at by this gaze.

"Let me think about it." She said.

A Han felt a touch of loss in his heart, before Yue Niangzi usually laughed when she saw him blushing, why ...... now She stopped laughing.

The river at the east end of the village flows all year round, and it does not freeze even on cold winter days, and there is only one small boat on the ferry, and the boatman is from their village, and then he rests next to the ferry, and this break is twenty or thirty years.
