Chun Tao took the remaining half of the cucumber home, and used the bowl he brought back with some vinegar and peppers.

As for the cool skin of March's family! Hidden in a small corner of the stove room by Chun Tao, only October knows where.

At dinner in the evening, Chun Tao brought out the cool skin, Aunt Zhou praised a few words, and Zhou Kuiruo also ate a few more bites. Overall, the results are good.

Chun Tao washed her hair, but before it dried, she took the initiative to say a few words to Zhou Kuiruo.

"Phase... "I really can't call it out in front of him, what should I do."

"When you call out, you're talking to me." Zhou Kuiruo's tone was a little displeased.

Chun Tao is a person who knows the times, and immediately called out: "Xianggong, I just... It's in... Thinking about how... Say. "For those who can't guess, it's better not to tell what you really think.

"Say what?" Zhou Kuiruo lowered his head and flipped through the book, and Chun Tao didn't know whether he believed it or not.

"I..."The matter of Liangpi is still waiting for the problem of seasoning to be solved, and then tell him!" I'll be tomorrow... I want to talk to you... Go to the county seat... Buy some vinegar. ”

"You like to be jealous?" Zhou Kuiruo suddenly looked up at her.

Just because I want to buy vinegar doesn't mean I like vinegar, right? What kind of logic is this? "Hmm!"

"Okay."

He didn't let me stay at home with Aunt Zhou, didn't he say let me take good care of Aunt Zhou?

Zhou Kuiruo seemed to see Chun Tao's thoughts, and said, "I asked you to take good care of my mother, but it doesn't mean that you must follow her every step of the way." ”

"I dislike you because of your appearance, but since I have married you, I will never abandon you. It's just that I need some time to get used to you, so that you can get used to me too, you know? ”

Chun Tao shook her head and nodded immediately. "Is this the so-called one life and one couple?"

"A couple for a lifetime?" Inadvertently, Chun Tao said what she thought in her heart.

Secretly looked at Zhou Kuiruo and found that he looked out the window and didn't know what he was thinking, looking sad and helpless.

It seems that in his heart, this life and a couple do not refer to me and him, nor can it be me and him!

"Is your hair dry?" Zhou Kuiruo came back to his senses, glanced at Chun Tao, and changed to his usual appearance again.

"It's coming."

The conversation between the two ended here, and it was only when Chun Tao's hair dried that Zhou Kuiruo extinguished the candle.

"Lamei... I'll come later... Also bowls. "Yesterday, the cool skin of Lamei's house was packed with the bowl that Chun Tao brought from home, so it is estimated that I will come over today, and before going to the county seat, Chun Tao explained to Aunt Zhou.

"Okay, I know. You! Come back with Quill after shopping, don't worry, you know? After telling Chun Tao, he said to Zhou Kuiruo: "If Chun Tao buys a lot of things, you can help carry some on your back, don't be tired of her." ”

"The child knows, don't worry!" Zhou Kuiruo is gentle in front of Aunt Zhou and in front of others, but he is more serious in the face of Chun Tao.

The couple said goodbye to Aunt Zhou and set foot on the road to the county seat, and both of them remained silent tacitly along the way.

came to the place where Zhou Kuiruo usually set up a stall, and the two separated. "Come to me when you buy good things, don't run around."

Chun Tao nodded, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhou Kuiruo again, and stuffed three or four hundred copper coins into her hand. "I... I have. ”

"I don't know where your money comes from, but no matter how much money you have, there will be a time when it runs out, so take it!" Chun Tao had no choice but to accept it.

Chun Tao bought a big basket first, so that she didn't have to trouble them when she usually bought things.

I went to the grocery store and bought mung beans, dried peas, dried chilies, peppercorns, vinegar, and sugar. Because I didn't see any ingredients in the grocery store, I went to the pharmacy and bought about ten kinds of spices, such as star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon, grass fruit, nutmeg, cloves, cumin, and anise.

Because I had to do experiments, I bought a lot of materials, and after buying these, I went to buy ginger, garlic, cucumbers, and the like. The money to buy these spring peaches is almost spent. went to find Zhou Kuiruo.

"Finished buying?" Chun Tao returned to Zhou Kuiruo's stall with a full load, and Zhou Kuiruo helped Chun Tao put the back basket on the ground.

"Why is it so heavy?" didn't estimate the weight, Zhou Kuiruo almost lay on the back basket, and his hand was also scratched by the bamboo strip.

Chun Tao didn't expect him to be scratched, still bleeding, and looked at his hand nervously: "Flow... It bleeds. ”

Zhou Kuiruo, who was the party concerned, was much calmer, took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to her, saying, "Help me tie it up." ”

"No... Don't take medicine? Chun Tao wanted to wipe the excess blood with her sleeve, but thought that her sleeve was too dirty for fear of infection, so she pulled out the bamboo shavings in the wound, and picked up Zhou Kuiruo's kettle to rinse the wound.

"Hiss~" The wound was more painful when it touched the water than when it was scratched, and Zhou Kuiruo couldn't help but gasp. scolded himself silently in his heart.

Looking at Chun Tao, who carefully washed the wound and bandaged herself, Zhou Kuiruo felt that she was not particularly ugly, but her hair was a little frizzy, her skin was a little yellow, and her eyes were a little hollow.

Chun Tao helped Zhou Kuiruo bandage his wounds, and when he looked up, he found that he had been staring at him in a daze. "How... What's wrong? "You can't be thinking about how to scold me!

Chun Tao's question interrupted Zhou Kuiruo, and he immediately withdrew his hand and turned his back to Chun Tao. "Nothing."

What was I just thinking? How could she not be ugly, she was not only ugly but also a stammer! It must be that I haven't slept well in the past few days, so I will be cranky.

Looking at his hands that were scratched by bamboo strips, Zhou Kuiruo sighed. "It seems that I can't hold a pen these days."

"Yes... I'm sorry. Chun Tao felt even more guilty when he said this.

"It's just a break, and no one is going to buy it anyway."

On the surface, Zhou Kuiruo behaved lightly, but Chun Tao was a person who was very sensitive to other people's moods, and he immediately heard the powerlessness in his tone. I must feel that I am too incompetent, and I can't even ensure the basic food and clothing of my family.

Seeing him like this, Chun Tao couldn't take any more money from him. "That's... So we... Go back? ”

"It's almost noon, finish your meal first, and then go back when it's not too hot! Avoid heat stroke on the road. ”

Chun Tao nodded obediently.

"What do you want to eat?"

I knew that I should bring some dry food with me, so that I could save some money. "Just... Let's make steamed buns! ”

"Let's eat noodles!" As he spoke, he walked to the noodle stall on the side, and Chun Tao had to follow.

"Does Zhou Gongzi still want a bowl of clear soup noodles?" Zhou Kuiruo smiled and nodded, it seemed that he was already an old customer, and the stall owner asked again: "What about this little lady?" ”

"Clear soup noodles with an egg." The low and warm male voice is Zhou Kuiruo's formulaic performance, and it is also the time when Chun Tao is the least afraid of him.

"No... No need. ”

"I'm in trouble." If Zhou Kui ignores Chun Tao, forget it, and the stall owner ignores her.

"Okay, you two wait."

"I... I don't... No, you don't. ”

"If you don't want it, just tell the boss yourself!"

It's clearly calculated, I don't dare to say, he doesn't feel distressed when he spends money, why am I still reluctant to eat!

Chun Tao looked at the cut egg on the table and asked, "This is... Salted eggs? "Why not an omelette!

"Yes." Zhou Kuiruo's impatient look made Chun Tao shut up.

took a bite of egg white into his mouth, and as soon as he bit it, Chun Tao's facial features wrinkled together. Seeing Zhou Kuiruo looking at herself, Chun Tao had no choice but to say, "It's so salty." ”

"The salted eggs of every house are salty, how can there be anything that is not salty." When the stall owner heard this, he was worried about scaring away the customers, so he answered.

That's just like pickles! It's all put a lot of salt, salty to bitter. After eating this whole, how much water do you have to drink! "Here you go." Chun Tao handed the other half of the salted egg that had not been touched to Zhou Kuiruo.

Zhou Kuiruo glanced at Chun Tao, silently picked up the salted egg and ate it with the noodles.

Spring Peach also sandwiched a chopstick, the noodles are smooth and smooth, with a very strong wheat aroma, and a little bit of meat fragrance. With salted eggs, you will definitely lose this flavor, but this salted egg cannot be wasted.

After eating the clear soup noodles, Zhou Kuiruo's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat, but the spring peach was still refreshing.

After eating, Chun Tao sat next to Zhou Kuiruo and watched the stall together. As Zhou Kuiruo said, there are really not many people who come to patronize his business, and it seems that he was able to sell paintings that day, which is indeed the credit of the toilet.
