Chapter 776: Brother Song, go, rub the rice
"Eat, big baby." Liu Qianzhou couldn't help laughing.
Song Cheng's face turned dark, "What are you shouting about?" ”
Follow her, she has a lot of ideas, and he naturally trusts her.
Liu Qianzhou turned his head to look at Song Cheng: "Are your feet okay?" I walked in running shoes yesterday for a day, and my feet were all worn out, and you still wear leather shoes, can you still walk? ”
Song Cheng's heart moved, and his face was different: "I didn't expect you to know and care about me." ”
"That's because my feet hurt, so I know everyone should be the same. Well, all the people who came here were young people, and they came in such a tired state yesterday, and today they went to a meeting again, whether they wanted to or not, they all went anyway, and I still admire it. ”
Liu Qianzhou sighed as she spoke, she didn't want to take one more step.
Song Cheng said: "The medicine prepared by my mother is very effective, I rubbed the wound medicine and wrapped it in gauze, and I feel fine today." ”
Liu Qianzhou tilted his head: "The wound medicine is ......"
"It's for trauma and abrasions." The words fell to her, and then said: "I used it without telling you, because you fell asleep, and it was not easy to wake you up." ”
"Oh, it's okay, it feels pretty good, how much is that wound medicine left? Is it enough for everyone to share a little? Liu Qianzhou asked.
Song Cheng shook his head: "I suggest you keep it for yourself, it's not much, just two fifty-gram ointments." ”
Liu Qianzhou raised his eyes slightly: "Have you used up half of it?" ”
"Almost, I don't want my feet to grow that big." Song Cheng Road.
The corners of Liu Qianzhou's mouth twitched, and he wanted to say something, but he pressed it back.
It's not easy to come here, and he doesn't need to come here, not because he's worried about her coming.
Thanks to him along the way, otherwise it would have been delusional for her to bring her two boxes plus snacks and a backpack prepared by her mother.
So she took the love he showed up this time.
Liu Qianzhou walked in front and walked to the nearest farmhouse to the resettlement house.
She stood outside and shouted, "Anyone?" Excuse me, anyone? ”
When this voice came out, it was the big yellow dog that responded to her, and the thick sound of "Wang", "Wang" and "Wang" came out, which scared Liu Qianzhou's boss.
Liu Qianzhou took a step back and stood on the path and looked inside.
The peasant house was a mud-walled and tiled house, and an old woman came out of the wooden door on the side of the road.
"What's the matter?"
Liu Qianzhou immediately said with a smile on his face: "Hello auntie, may I ask, have you eaten at home?" We want to have lunch at your house, we can give money, okay? ”
The old woman looked carefully at Liu Qianzhou and the tall man standing behind her, and then asked, "Are you the ones who live in that brick house?" ”
"yes." Liu Qianzhou said.
"Okay, but our family eats simply, and the old village chief cooked for you, right? Why don't you go to the village to eat? The old woman asked.
Liu Qianzhou waved his hand: "No, no, we want to eat a little nearby, may I ask Auntie, is your family enough to eat?" ”
The old woman said, "If you don't have enough, you can give you noodles, because you have too much to eat at home, but I am afraid that you will not be able to eat it." ”
Liu Qianzhou hurriedly said: "We can eat and eat, we are not picky eaters." ”
The old woman said, "Then send it, and it will be a little while." ”
The old woman took the big yellow dog by the hand and tied it to the back of the house, and the barking of the dog began a few more times, and then it fell silent.
"Thank you, Auntie."
Liu Qianzhou gave the old woman a hundred yuan, and then said, "My friend and I ate at your house at noon." ”
"A hundred? There are too many girls, and there is no fresh meat at home, or so much, you can give five or ten pieces of it, you can't ask for so much. The old woman said.
Liu Qianzhou forced the money into the old woman's pocket, and she said: "Auntie, in addition to having a lunch at your house, we also want to bring back a little rice and noodles, and if there are vegetables, you can also give us a little, thank you." ”
When the old woman heard this, she said, "Oh, that's okay, big girl, then Auntie will take the money?" ”
"Mmmm, thank you Auntie for taking us in." Liu Qianzhou hurriedly spoke.
The old woman immediately went into the kitchen, and began to boil water and cook rice, and cut off a piece of bacon smoked in the kitchen and stir-fried it with vegetables.
It is too much for the people in the village to go to the market, so the villagers in the whole village rarely eat fresh meat, almost all of them eat gnocchi, rice, sweet potatoes, and some vegetables are the green vegetables in their own vegetable fields, and eat less meat. The meat of every household is also hung above the kitchen with smoked bacon.
The meat is made by slaughtering the fat pigs that have been raised for a year at home during the Chinese New Year every year, and the meat is salted and hung on the top of the kitchen.
That pig can be eaten from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
Therefore, meat is very precious in this village. It's too far away from the town market, and it's too troublesome to buy meat, so they all eat meat as a rarity, and they will only eat a bite when they come to visit or celebrate the New Year's holidays.
The old woman's house originally cooked porridge for a while, but a guest came, no, she cooked a pot of dry rice again.
Here let the little daughter burn on the stove with firewood, and go out to greet the guests.
"Eldest daughter, my aunt went to the vegetable field to chop two vegetables and came back, and she will be able to eat them in a while."
put a small bench for Liu Qianzhou and Song Cheng to sit down, don't get tired.
Liu Qianzhou raised his eyes and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Auntie." ”
As soon as he sat down, he saw the old woman carrying Xiao Louzi on her back and taking a sickle and walking down the path to the vegetable field in front of her.
Liu Qianzhou immediately followed, and Song Cheng immediately called out to stop her: "Qianqian." ”
"Huh?"
Liu Qianzhou turned around and looked at him inexplicably: "What's wrong?" ”
Song Cheng said helplessly: "Sit for a while, don't you continue to be in a daze?" ”
She got up early in the morning, cleaned herself up and sat in front of the house in a daze, and stayed all morning, and he didn't know if she was brainstorming, so he didn't bother her.
However, she was there, and he was with him.
"No, I'll go to the vegetable field to see, when our family used to be in Benjiang, we also had land, growing vegetables and crops. Even though I was young at the time, I also helped. It's you, do you want to take a look? Let you see for a long time, otherwise do you know how what you eat grows? Liu Qianzhou asked with a smile.
Song Cheng wrinkled his eyebrows, but she couldn't help but say that she really followed.
Liu Qianzhou was already walking on the ridge, in front of this farmhouse was a whole piece of land, the terrain was low, and the middle piece of land, like a field with dry water, was used to grow vegetables.
The path in the middle should have been built with earth and stone in the later period, so it is not wide and uneven.
Liu Qianzhou stood on the mound, with one foot on his left and one foot on his right, his body was crooked and fell down, but he could be counted as the old woman's side.
Liu Qianzhou immediately squatted down and squatted beside the old woman.
"Auntie, how many families are together, right?"
"Yes, there are five families in this area, and our family is in the middle. Eldest girl, go back and rest, Auntie will go back immediately. The old woman said.
Liu Qianzhou nodded, this green vegetable field, the vegetables planted are also similar, so she asked if it was a few families together.
"Auntie, can you give us one of this dish?" Liu Qianzhou asked with a smile.
"Yes, you see, I've got you covered." The aunt immediately lifted the basket, "I still have celery in this vegetable field, you put a little celery in the stir-fry, it will be fragrant." ”
The old woman pulled a little leaf and gave it to Liu Qianzhou to smell, and Liu Qianzhou took it, put it next to his nose, and sniffed it.
"Wow...... This is much more fragrant than what we sell over there, super fragrant! ”
Liu Qianzhou stood up, looked at Song Cheng who came over, handed it to him and said, "You smell it, it's really super fragrant." ”
Song Cheng sniffed it, and there really was.
This looks like organic vegetables cut out of the vegetable patch.
"Is that a shallot? Haha, Auntie, can you give us a little shallot? Liu Qianzhou asked with a smile.
"Of course, you can look at our vegetable patch, if you like anything, you can get some of it back." The old woman said.
"Oh, okay, thank you, Auntie." Liu Qianzhou turned his head to look at Song Cheng and stuck out his tongue at him.
The three of them quickly returned from the vegetable field, and Liu Qianzhou and Song Cheng sat outside the house.
Song Cheng is such a tall man, it is really funny to sit on the small bench, Liu Qianzhou hugged his knees and put his chin on his knees, looking at Song Cheng happily.
"Do you ever feel like you're happy in life? Although you are busy every day, your standard of living is the same as that of the people here, right? ”
Song Cheng looked at her: "What about you?" ”
"I have long known that life is not easy, and people like you who grew up in candied fruit jars when they were young cannot understand the sorrow of running for a living."
Liu Qianzhou made a sullen voice, and Song Cheng said: "The environment here is the same as you imagined?" Or are you going to stay here for ten days and half a month? ”
"Well, that's good." Liu Qianzhou nodded.
"I'm afraid that life is too hard, you have been worried about eating all day a day, where is the time to think about the work?" Song Cheng said in a low voice.
Liu Qianzhou raised his eyes to look at him: "You're right." ”
Liu Qianzhou got up, and Song Cheng immediately asked, "Where are you going?" ”
Liu Qianzhou turned around and saw that he had also followed.
"I'll take a look, you sit, don't keep following me." Liu Qianzhou said something and followed into the kitchen.
The light in the kitchen is not very good, there is a stove at the door, a few pieces of wood are burning in it, and a strong aroma of rice comes from it, which is the taste of life.
Liu Qianzhou had a smile on his face and looked at the old woman who was washing vegetables over there.
She asked, "Auntie, do you want me to help?" ”
"No, no, where to use your help, no. Go and rest, I'll clean it up soon. The old woman said aloud.
Liu Qianzhou put the little stool next to the little girl, and she asked, "What's your name?" ”
"Yellow Warbler." The little girl said.
"Is it the yellow warbler who can sing?" Liu Qianzhou asked with a smile.
Huang Ying nodded: "Yes, it's the Huang Ying who can sing." ”
"That's a nice name, did you go to school? How old are you and can you read and write? Liu Qianzhou asked again.
Huang Ying shook her head: "I'm ten years old, I don't know how to read, we don't have a school in the village, and my mother doesn't know how to read, so I don't know either." ”
