Chapter 16 Cohabitation begins
CHAPTER XVI
After brushing the basin, Lin Baozhu's face was a little better. After stabilizing his mind, he picked up the dishes and chopsticks and entered the house with stewed meat and food.
In the simple thatched cottage of the farmhouse, mixed with fragrant and hot meals, the husband and wife ate together without saying a word. And Lin Baozhu obviously put more than half of the stew into Zhang Man's hoarding bowl, and then picked up the multigrain noodle potstickers into the basket and pushed them over.
Xu took a lot of effort today, or the food made by Lin Baozhu was delicious, Zhang Manchu solved two pot stickers in three bites, and the stew in that bowl of sea did not leave a piece of soup into his stomach.
This season is not yet the time to enjoy the cool at night, and every family is busy cultivating wasteland or going out to work, and they have worked hard all day, who doesn't want to rest early. It is very rare for people to visit the door at this time. But as soon as the sky cleared up and ate, everyone went to bed early. So no one came to disturb the two of them, and no one came to inquire about Zhang Manchu's bloody situation today.
After a tired day, and secretly shed a lot of tears, Lin Baozhu was already a little sleepy at this time. But seeing Zhang Manchu propping up his body and having to go back to the house, and worried that his wound would be infected, Lin Baozhu simply got up with a tiger face and moved all the bedding in his east room. Now, the two of them, who have never rested in the same room, are officially living together.
Of course, one sleeps on the head of the kang and the other on the tail of the kang.
Because Zhang Manchu's injury was too terrifying this time, and Aunt Tian also asked a few words not to go to the back mountain when she came, which was evil, so Lin Baozhu said that he would not let Zhang Manchu go to work in the field again.
That's it, a man who has never been injured because of a hole in his body, but he really rests at home. said that he was resting, but he was also idle, so he simply helped Lin Baozhu turn over the piece of land in front of the fence, and then renovated the fence.
Originally, Lin Baozhu still disapproved of him taking him to work, but seeing that he had nowhere to use his strength, his eyes always followed him, so he simply responded and let him go to the ground. She watched from the sidelines, and nothing big could happen.
Thinking that Zhang Manchu had shed a lot of blood, how could he make up for it, Lin Baozhu had been thinking about food a lot in the past two days. Wouldn't it be better to crush the shaved bones with an axe, and then wash the bones and stew them in a pot? After boiling the bone broth, she began to make cakes with egg batter, spoonfuls of batter were spread into the pot, and before they were formed, she smoothed them with the bottom of the spoon, and after a while, a small bowl of translucent yellow pancakes full of oil fragrance was stacked.
took the time to glance at Zhang Manho, who was still busy working on the stool outside, and saw that it was also a little hot, and he even put a straw hat on his head, and just like that, beads of sweat still fell down his cheeks and jaw one after another. The swarthy man, meticulously tied to some loose fences, no matter how you look at it, there is an inexplicable temptation.
I don't know what I thought, Lin Baozhu's face turned red, and then he lowered his head and pouted. She was suddenly stunned, and when she saw that person, her heart jumped, she was really ashamed and annoyed, and she couldn't say one, two, three. Rao is like this, in fact, the sweet energy in his heart is still difficult to ignore.
After making lunch, watching Zhang Manchu wash his hands, Lin Baozhu began to make peace and plan to evaporate the cake later. Although there are still a lot of white noodles at home, he can't stand this man's large amount of food, thinking that he ate a big bowl of lasagna and a stew with two cakes and a bowl of stew for dinner, Lin Baozhu couldn't help but roll his eyes. But that person can also say coaxing words, and don't forget to praise a few words about deliciousness when eating a round belly.
Because there is no yeast powder, the noodles of the evaporated cake are made with sour leaven. It's also a shame that Aunt Tian was afraid that the two of them would have nothing, so she pulled half of it.
The dough was not so fast to make with leaven, and it was not yet summer, so she simply put the mixed dough in a basin and covered it with a small mattress, and then put it on the hot stove. With this heat, it is estimated that the dough will be faster.
After finishing all this, Zhang Manchu had already consciously set the table, and even helped Lin Baozhu bring the bone broth and pancakes in the pot to the house.
Because there are still some pot stickers at home, I just swallowed the big bone broth at this time. Not to mention anything else, the bone broth that has been boiled all morning with a firewood fire and a large iron pot can make people drool just by smelling it.
Boil until the bone broth turns white, soak a few pieces of cake, and eat it in your mouth with a really fragrant flavor. Now that I have settled down, I am no longer in panic, and the food in my mouth is sweet. Especially watching Zhang Manchu quietly pick up the bones with meat into his own bowl, Lin Baozhu suddenly had a kind of mind to live in peace and stability in this life.
After eating, Zhang Manchu picked up the wild wolf he fought yesterday. This wolf was supposed to be a wild animal living in a group in the deep mountains, but it was estimated that the head in front of him was lonely, and he was so hungry that he almost broke into the village.
Sensei saw that he had injured his shoulder blade, but this injury was really nothing to him, and his skin injury was not to coax Lin Baozhu, but he really felt that this injury was just a joke. At this time, when I saw the wild wolf that was already stiff after death, I wondered how to peel the skin and shave the flesh.
I'm used to doing meat work, but now I'm even more round, and I'm starting to remove the flesh and blood that has been smashed by myself.
Lin Baozhu originally planned to watch it from the side, but he was a little sick to his stomach and nauseated by the scene of blood hulala, so he was insensitive to the dissection of the wolf skin. However, after Zhang Manchu cleaned up the fur and flesh, she still couldn't help but glance at it, after all, she had never seen a real wolf in her two lives.
Although the wild wolf is dead, his hideous expression can also see how vicious he was when he was alive, that is, Lin Baozhu is bolder, and if he is another girl, he may feel panicked and frightened.
"After being hungry for a winter, there is not much meat fat. However, the fur is still slippery and black, and it is estimated that it can be worth some silver. Zhang Manchu carefully cut off the wolf skin and put it aside, thought about it and turned his head to ask his daughter-in-law, "It's a whole wolf skin, it's better to wait for it to dry and make a seat for you, so that you can warm up without burning the kang in the winter." ”
I don't have any thoughts about that humphead Lin Baozhu, if there is, I will unconsciously think of the whole tiger skin or wolf skin spread on the chair of the copycat bandit in the TV series, if I sit on it, maybe how funny it is. Thinking of this, she shook her head again and again and said no.
"Let's sell it, it's hard to think about it."
When Zhang Manchu finished dismantling the wolf meat and left a few pieces of what he tried at home, he put the rest of the cover in the corner of the shady wall.
"There's nothing going on at home left and right, and it's not easy to go to the ground in the past two days, so I'll go to the town tomorrow, so I can exchange wolf skins and meat bones for silver."
Lin Baozhu is naturally happy to be able to go to the town, not to mention anything else, it would be good if he could find some work to fill in the input for the family. The two of them decided to go to town, and then they were free.
Xu was a little awkward sitting in front of Lin Baozhu, and he didn't know what to say when he spoke, so after a few words, Zhang Manchu turned out the bow and arrow and rope, and planned to go outside to swing. Earlier, he had set a few traps at the foot of the mountain, when it was spring, and the wild creatures that had been holding back in the mountains for a winter were staggering out to feed. If you are caught, you can also have more tooth sacrifices at home.
In fact, Lin Baozhu was also twisting in her heart at this time, that man was a man of few words, and her manly temperament made her always flustered. And there was nothing to do at home, and Zhang Manchu had been busy all morning and the wound had not broken, so he immediately asked a lot of words, and let the person go out.
After the others left, she sat on the kang and took out the needlework and cloth that Zhang Manho bought that day. The last time I saw his purse, he used to sharpen the thread, and he wondered when he would have time to help embroider another purse. However, after all, the craftsmanship is not good, and I dare not start easily.
These days, Aunt Tian always comes to take care of her, so she should also go to thank her, and I just happened to ask my aunt how to do female work. Thinking that there was still fried oil residue at home, he dug up another bowl of white noodles, and put a few pancakes left in the pot into the basket, and then locked the door and went out.
When she was about to lock the door, she also sighed that the half of the door connected to the fence was really hanging, and it was estimated that the gentleman could not stop the villain. If someone really has a bad heart, where can they pick the lock, they will turn over and jump into the yard. But come to think of it, you still have to go to the door.
In the past few days, Tian Dashan's daughter-in-law has a body again, and it is the time to react, so she detains Tian Dashan to take care of her at home. No, when Lin Baozhu came, Aunt Tian had just finished washing the dishes and chopsticks.
"Uncle and aunt, eat it." Lin Baozhu entered the yard first, and saw that Uncle Tian was squatting on the stone grinding plate in the yard smoking dry tobacco, so he hurriedly raised his voice and greeted him with a smile.
Uncle Tian is an authentic farmer, and he has been the master of the field all his life. In addition, he suffered a lot when he was young, so his face is naturally dark and old. But the person is a kind person, seeing the person coming, he nodded and hurriedly shouted into the house, "Dashan damn, the daughter-in-law is here." ”
When Aunt Tian heard this, she hurriedly came to the courtyard to greet her while shaking the water beads in her hand. And Tian Dashan and his family in the house also came out.
"The orb is here, have you eaten it? If you haven't eaten, the aunt will give you hot food, and the fire in the stove has not yet fallen. ”
"Mother, it's all this time, how can Baozhu not eat." Tian Dashan's daughter-in-law Qian Shi heard that her mother-in-law was going to give Lin Baozhu a hot meal, and the boss was reluctant to do so, and the smile on her face was a little far-fetched. They boiled white flour porridge and lard stew today, which was used for her to replenish her body, if Lin Baozhu ate it, she would have to eat much less. Thinking of this, she smirked and said, "Baozhu is not the kind of person who rushes to the door to eat, maybe how much delicious food has been bought for her, where do you see our little porridge?" ”
