Chapter 43: Mi Guoba

September glanced at Chun Tao, slowly put down the silk flowers in his hand, and left the stall.

"Okay, okay, is Jiuwen money okay?" The stall owner saw that the four of Chun Tao were really leaving, and hurriedly stopped them, after all, there were not many people in the afternoon, and they could make a lump sum.

September paused, but saw that Chun Tao didn't look back, so he had to follow again. "Bawen, the lowest."

"Give it to him." Chun Tao finally stopped, took out her purse from her sleeve, counted the eight cents and handed it to September.

"Hmm!" September ran back to the stall with the money, took the silk flowers, and gave the money. "Boss, here you go."

Zhou Kuiruo has been watching from the side, following when he leaves, and standing when he stops. "I thought you wouldn't bargain!"

If I had money, I wouldn't have bothered to haggle, but the point is that I don't have money!

Zhou Kuiruo looked at October next to September with an envious look on his face, and asked, "Why don't you buy one for October too?" ”

"September's... Be... I promised, no... Didn't say yes... It's not... No. ”

"That..." Before he finished speaking, September came back wearing silk flowers.

"Sister Chun Tao, is it good-looking?"

"Hmm!" Chun Tao nodded, September was a little embarrassed.

The four of them wandered the street for a while before returning to Erzhu's father's stall to get something. Because March and March Dad sold out of meat in the morning, the four of them had to spend money to go back in an ox cart.

As soon as Chun Tao got home, he immediately soaked the peas and kneaded the dough to ferment. Add the remaining rice to the flour several times so that the flour and rice are fully combined, and finally knead into a dough.

Sprinkle flour on a cutting board, then divide the dough into small portions, roll it out into thin slices with a rolling pin, and cut it into small cubes and divide it. Put oil in the pot and boil until it is 60% hot, fry the following slices until the surface is golden, and the touch is crispy and drain the oil. Then sprinkle with Sichuan pepper powder, cool it and put it in a jar, and the rice pot is done.

Aunt Zhou was rolling the dough sheets, the spring peaches were frying, and only Zhou Kuiruo was left with nothing to do. "Phase... Messire. ”

Chun Tao's voice was too quiet, and Zhou Kuiruo, who was resting in the house, couldn't hear it at all. Aunt Zhou's hands kept moving, lowered her head and asked, "What's wrong?" Can I help you? ”

"Noodles... The dough that... It's time to wash. ”

"Okay, that lady will call for you." The dough sheet on the board was still enough, so Aunt Zhou wiped her hands and walked to the big house.

After a while, the two of them came out. "What to do? Wash the dough? Like you did yesterday? ”

"Hmm!"

Zhou Kuiruo moved a small stool and planned to sit in the stove room, but Aunt Zhou's feet moved and almost kicked him. "You child, the stove is small and hot, how uncomfortable it is for you to stay inside, go and sit at the door."

Looking at his mother's feet, which had nowhere to put them, Zhou Kuiruo had no choice but to move a chair, take a utensil, and sit at the door of the stove room.

The three of them were busy in the small stove room, Aunt Zhou occasionally asked Zhou Kuiruo about the situation during the day, chatted a few words, and Chun Tao listened quietly on the side and did her own thing.

"Taste it." After all the rice pots were done, the spring peach sandwiched one for Aunt Zhou to taste.

"It tastes good, it's not very oily, it's just too hard, and my old woman has a little hard time eating."

Spring Peach also ate a small piece. It still tastes crispy now, but it is estimated to be soft tomorrow.

"Give Quill a try." Aunt Zhou never let go of any opportunity to bring the relationship between the two closer.

Under the attack of her gentle eyes, Chun Tao grabbed a small piece and fed it to Zhou Kuiruo. Aunt Zhou moved her head and motioned for the two to talk, and Chun Tao pretended not to understand.

"Kui'er, Chun Tao wants to ask you if this is delicious?" If you don't understand what that means, then I'll help you say it!

"It's okay, but after doing so much, are you going to sell?"

"Hmm!" It's definitely impossible to eat so much at home! Even if it's a gift, it's too much!

Seeing that the two were talking happily, Aunt Zhou smiled and washed her hands and began to prepare dinner.

"This shouldn't taste good tomorrow, and it's estimated that it won't sell well!"

"No... No way... Leftovers to make... Cooking rice balls... Not good, only... You can only make a pot... Can... Come tomorrow morning... It's too late. ”

"If business is good tomorrow, let's build another stove in the courtyard!"

"Hmm!" By the way, March Niang said that she would let June come to help beat the chicken coop, I don't know when it will come, ask tomorrow!

"And how are you going to sell it?"

"I... I want to be a copy of one... A pound... Sell... Sell Bawen. ”

"The pricing is a bit high."

"But... But there is flour... Still... And oil. "It's not cost-effective if it's low.

"Yes, this is a snack, sell cheaper, less than two pennies, small profits but quick turnover."

When Chun Tao heard this, she smiled shallowly, but Zhou Kuiruo lowered her head and didn't notice it, and Chun Tao herself didn't notice it. "You... Very... It's very suitable..."Thinking of something, Chun Tao stopped and didn't say anything.

Without hearing the latter words, Zhou Kuiruo raised his head and looked at her and asked, "What is suitable?" ”

"No... It's nothing... I... I'm going to help... Help. After saying that, he left without looking back.

Zhou Kuiruo looked at Chun Tao's somewhat flustered back, a little inexplicable, withdrew his inquiring gaze, and continued to do his own thing.

After dinner, Chun Tao simply scrubbed and was ready to sleep, but Zhou Kuiruo was not as she wished.

"Come here." As soon as Chun Tao entered the door, she was called to the desk by Zhou Kuiruo.

"How... What's wrong? "I didn't do anything to make him angry today!

"How do you calculate the day? What method is used. ”

He still remembers it! This man's memory is too good, and I will have to pay more attention to it in the future. "Just... Just count it... Counted. ”

"Whatever? Whatever you count, right? Zhou Kuiruo's face suddenly became gloomy, and he held back his anger and did not attack.

"I...", I'm going to be angry again, what a child." This one... Teach for a while... Teach won't... Another day... Teach you again... How is it? I... I'm really... It's tiring. ”

"Didn't you just say you were going to do it? Why are you suddenly going to teach me again? It doesn't seem to be a casual calculation! Zhou Kuiruo raised his eyebrows and spoke in a weird manner.

Cheapskate! "It's... It's casual... But... But whatever... There are also... There is a way, no... No... No... Don't teach you. ”

I've been busy for so long, and I have to get up early tomorrow, so I don't dare to lie to her, so why not be a few days late!

"That's... Then I... Did I sleep? Looking at his expressionless face, Chun Tao didn't know what he was thinking.

"Sleep!" Zhou Kuiruo glanced at Chun Tao and spared her for the time being.

The quilt and pillow have been put on the bed by Zhou Kuiruo, and as soon as Chun Tao lay down, he extinguished the candle, and after closing his eyes, Chun Tao fell asleep.

When they got up in the morning, the two exchanged jobs, Chun Tao was responsible for steaming the cold skin, cutting cucumbers, etc.; Zhou Kuiruo was in charge of crushing the steamed peas and putting them in molds. As a result, the pace is a little faster today than yesterday.

Daddy March's meat was sold out yesterday, and there was no need to go to the market, so today is March with September and October.

"Chun Tao, are you alright?" Before you see him, you hear his voice first. Chun Tao put down the bowl when she heard the sound, swallowing the food and opening the door.

March was still a certain distance from Zhou's house, and when she saw Chun Tao open the door, she waved her hand to greet her. Can't you just knock on the door again? Nor do they run to people.

"Chun Tao, are you ready, our three sisters have come to help you today, you are really blessed!" March jumped out of the car, September and October were still sitting in the car, and the three of them smiled at Chun Tao together.

What a sister! Chun Tao shook her head and led September and October into the courtyard, leaving March alone to watch the donkey.
