Chapter 12: Departure

Because of the matter of going down to the river to fish in the morning, Shen Lingxi was cautious all morning, and he was a little sullen, Ming Yueqing didn't know why.

Seeing that it was time to make lunch, she stood up and looked down the hill.

"I'm going to cook, you can rest here, or go and call Startling and Gu Hanchun, I promised them in the morning that I would make fish at noon."

"Okay."

Shen Lingxi got up and suddenly glanced at her with some hesitation.

"What's wrong?"

"Qing Qing ......" he pursed his lips, his eyes flowing with clear light, "After lunch, I want to go home." ”

Ming Yueqing's eyes flashed, and she returned to normal in the blink of an eye, she smiled: "Do you want me to find someone to give you a ride?" ”

"No need, I can do it myself."

"Okay, be careful on your own road." Mingyue laughed, "I'm busy." ”

"Sister Yue!"

Looking at the sting that poked out half of its head, Mingyue smiled.

"Yo, you just mentioned you and you came, why, you already smell the fragrance before I start cooking?"

Scratching his hair in shock, he smiled greedily: "The fragrance of the food cooked by Sister Yue is already in my heart, I know it without smelling it!" ”

"Stinky boy!" Mingyue scolded with a smile, "Since you're here, let's come and help!" What about Gu Hanchun? ”

Stunned, he looked speechless and pouted: "My mother is pulling my cousin to talk, and she has a handful of snot and tears." ”

"Still talking?" Ming Yueqing was also speechless, "It's been all morning!" ”

Originally, she also wanted to talk to Gu Hanchun, and listened to him say some things outside the border, but Aunt Lin liked this eldest brother's only child very much.

Every time Gu Hanchun came, she had to pull him to talk for half a day.

"Alright then, let's cook first!"

For the fish caught in the morning, Ming Yueqing gave Aunt Lin two, Dr. Du two, pickled two, and then went to Aunt Zhao's house to exchange a fish for some tender tofu.

Although her body is fine, her arms still don't have much strength, so she originally wanted to rest for two days, and then cook something delicious to improve Shen Lingxi's food.

But since he's going home, let's make something delicious at noon, and thank him for catching fish.

"Sting, making a fire."

"Okay, Sister Yue."

Put water in the pot, cover and wait for it to boil.

Rolling up her sleeves, Ming Yueqing took a fresh fish that had been processed, chopped off the fish head, put the fish head in her eyes, soaked it in water, and sprinkled it with a little salt.

The fish is slowly cut into thin slices with a knife and salted in a bowl.

There are very few seasonings here, and Ming Yueqing took out all the seasonings that could be used in the kitchen.

Shred the ginger, mince the garlic, and cut the green onion into sections.

Uncover the pot, the water is boiling, put in a large bowl of bean sprouts and blanch them lightly a few times to quickly remove them.

Then heat the pot again, add oil, after heating, put the ginger and garlic foam and the chopped chili pepper into the pot and stir-fry until fragrant, and then put in some Aunt Lin's exclusive secret hot sauce.

Stimulated by the hot oil, the spicy and fragrant flavor was instantly stimulated and filled the entire courtyard.

The sting took a deep breath: "It's so fragrant!" ”

"It's really fragrant!"

Shen Lingxi also looked at the ingredients in the pot intently, even if there were only seasonings in it at the moment.

Ming Yueqing looked at the appearance of the two of them and smiled knowingly.

After stir-frying slightly, add water.

"Add some firewood, sting, and make a big fire."

Without saying a word, he squatted down again and began to add firewood.

After the water boiled, Ming Yueqing put the marinated fish into the pot one by one, stirred gently, and after a few breaths, the fish and soup were served directly on the scalded bean sprouts.

Then sprinkle with chopped green onions, garlic foam, and chopped chili peppers.

Pour oil into a pan, heat it and pour it directly over it.

The sound of "Zizi" sounded, and the fragrance overflowed.

"Wow......" smacked his lips in surprise and couldn't help but lick his lips.

Shen Lingxi also looked at the fish in the bowl intently.

Mingyueqing smiled: "Don't wow, fire." ”

Pour oil and heat again, scoop up the fish head and cut it into pieces, fry it until golden brown on both sides, add water, cook it until it is milky white, then put in the tofu cubes, stir lightly and sprinkle in chopped green onions and salt, and remove from the pot.

"Okay, Ling Xi, you take the dishes out and set the dishes and chopsticks." Mingyueqing clapped her hands, "I'll just make another green vegetable, you eat first when you're hungry, don't wait for me, Gu Hanchun won't mind." ”

"Qingqing, I'm not hungry, I'll wait for you."

Shocked to hear this, he also opened his mouth to say: "I'm also waiting for Sister Yue!" ”

Mingyue Qing fried the green vegetables and came out, and saw one big and one small, sitting at the dinner table, waiting for her.

"Yueqing."

Gu Hanchun came in, hurriedly took the food in her hand, and looked at her apologetically.

"I wanted to help you, but my aunt couldn't leave, so I worked hard for you."

"It's fine, I understand."

Mingyue Qing Dynasty He blinked, she had seen Aunt Lin'er's skills, and she also owed Gu Hanchun a good temperament, "Okay, let's eat!" ”

A meal, stunned to eat.

Spicy boiled fish, fish head tofu soup, and a plate of stir-fried wild vegetables, he felt that it was the most delicious meal he had eaten since the beginning of autumn, and even the wild boar meat last time was not comparable.

And Shen Lingxi felt that this was the most delicious meal he had eaten since he grew up so much, and of course, the noodles last night were also delicious.

Therefore, after a meal, Stunned and Shen Lingxi exclaimed again and again, and the two of them seemed to be competing, and used all the words to praise food.

Mingyue Qingqing's laughter was unbearable.

Gu Hanchun also smiled, but he paid more attention to Ming Yueqing, reminding her to eat more food from time to time.

Shocked and touched the round belly, looked at the fish head tofu soup left in the bowl with some unwillingness, and then sighed.

"Hey, why can't my mother cook such a delicious meal?" He looked down at himself, "No wonder I'm so thin. ”

"Hehe......"

Ming Yueqing looked at his chubby figure and laughed: "Shock, if you let Aunt Lin know that you said this, your ass will suffer!" ”

The stunned grin, but still couldn't help but look at the gate of the courtyard.

Ming Yueqing chuckled again.

"Okay, you guys go to the yard to rest, I'll go wash the dishes."

"I'll go." Gu Hanchun pressed her shoulder, "I heard my aunt say that you hurt your vitality when you entered the mountain a few days ago, and you should rest more, just come here." ”

"Okay, I'm not going to be polite to you."

Gu Hanchun smiled and entered the kitchen.

Ming Yueqing accompanied Shen Lingxi in the courtyard and talked for a while, then went into the kitchen and asked Gu Hanchun about the border pass, and when he came out, there was only one person in the courtyard who was stunned on the ground, watching the ants coming and going on the ground under the osmanthus tree.

"Shocked, where is Brother Ling?"

"Brother Ling is gone." The sting looked up.

"Gone?" Ming Yueqing didn't understand for a while, "Where did you go?" ”

"He said he was going home." Stunned thought for a while, and said, "Not long after Sister Yue entered the kitchen, Brother Ling left. ”

Ming Yueqing was stunned for a moment, and then chuckled.

Yes, he is the young master of the Shen family, and he should go home. He was only here to thank her for her help.

But why did he leave without saying a word? Don't even say hello!

"Sister Yue, will Brother Ling come back?"

Ming Yueqing shook her head: "I don't know, maybe, he won't come back, after all, his home is not here." ”

Stunned and a little disappointed.

Ming Yueqing walked out of the courtyard and stood on the hillside looking in the direction of the village entrance.

There, not a single figure was there.

Standing quietly for a while, Ming Yueqing smiled self-deprecatingly.

What is she doing?

He just stayed here for one night, and broke several bowls of her, and now it is only natural that he wants to go home, and he will leave, what is she looking at here?

"What a panic!"

Ming Yueqing muttered to herself, took a deep breath, and she grinned and turned to look at the stunned sting.

"Shock, I'm going to go into the mountains to collect prey in a while, do you want to go with you?"
