Tie Zhu on the side looked at Liu Qiaoer and rolled his eyes, shook his head helplessly, and continued to dig his head into the medical book, he did not plan to use Western medicine to treat smallpox, he planned to find a new way to try Chinese medicine therapy, after all, he was not a master of medicine in vain.

Chu Chu squatted beside Liu Dahua instead to help add firewood to the fire, Liu Dahua glanced at the iron pillar who was quietly flipping through the books, and smiled with satisfaction.

Xu Xiaoxiao brought the cauldron to Liu Dahua's side, "Grandma Liu, how about half stewed soup and half braised soup?" ”

Liu Dahua looked at the pheasant in the cauldron happily and nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I'll go decorate some water." ”

Xu Xiaoxiao began to divide the pheasant in half with a small "um", cut it into pieces, marinate them in cooking wine, and put a few slices of ginger, and Liu Qiaoer assisted in building an additional stove next to the set fire.

After everything is ready, Xu Xiaoxiao first watered the marinated chicken, then took it out and rinsed it, then put the ginger into the pot, put the chicken together in the pot with oil and stir-fry to get the taste, then add cooking wine, and finally put the mushrooms and red dates into the pot together, then pour cold water, cover the pot, and slowly boil out the fragrance.

Liu Qiao'er was excited to look at the familiar cooking techniques, how long had she not seen such familiar cooking, what she saw the most when she came to this dynasty was to add a little salt to the table after the water, colorless and tasteless, it was really tormenting.

The fragrance attracted Tie Zhu's attention, he climbed out of the car and walked into Xu Xiaoxiao's side, sucked with his nose, swallowed his saliva, he hadn't eaten such fragrant chicken for a long time.

Xu Xiaoxiao found the iron pillar beside him, smiled lightly and continued to marinate the other half of the chicken pieces, then put the hot oil in the pot, first stir-fry the ingredients until fragrant, then stir-fry the chicken pieces together, and finally sprinkle soy sauce and light soy sauce salt, and simmer for a while with the lid of the pot.

"You've never seen this way of eating, have you?" Liu Qiao'er squatted beside the iron pillar and put her hand on his small shoulder.

Xu Xiaoxiao did not tell Liu Qiao'er the true identity of Tiezhu, so that Tiezhu's various mature performances were attributed to the child's introversion and precociousness, and she did not explain Tiezhu's behavior too much before the time came.

Tie Zhu squinted at the arm that was heavy on his shoulder, his shoulder hung down, and Liu Qiao'er's arm fell short and almost fell.

"Stinky boy, are you trying to kill your mother, stingy ghost." Liu Qiaoer, who was steady, pinched Tiezhu's chubby face, and pretended to rub it around angrily.

Chu Chu sat in Liu Dahua's arms, and when he saw his brother's poker face being rubbed and chuckled, Liu Dahua couldn't help but smile kindly when he saw the two children playing.

Xu Xiaoxiao has always been very strange about Liu Qiaoer's way of getting along with Tie Zhu and Chu Chu, the two get along not so much as mother and son as sisters and brothers, more time Liu Dahua is taking care of this sister and brother, and Liu Qiaoer is making trouble from time to time.

"Thank you for your hard work, it must have been very hard to give birth to her in the first place." Xu Xiaoxiao looked at the two of them and suddenly sighed.

Liu Qiao'er suddenly stopped what she was doing when she heard Xu Xiaoxiao's sigh, turned back to face her, and said seriously: "It's not hard, the hardest thing is their mother." ”

"Mother?" Xu Xiaoxiao was stunned by Liu Qiaoer's reply.

recalled that she really didn't ask too much about Tiezhu and Chu Chu, since she came to this dynasty, she was in a non-stop hurry, and then she was solving all kinds of troubles, so she didn't have a good understanding of their past.

"Yes, I picked them up in town." Liu Qiaoer fiddled with the fire and said calmly.

"What?" The thunderous news made Xu Xiaoxiao jump up directly from his seat and look left and right at Chu Chu and Tie Zhu.

"Sit down, sit down, it's a big deal." Liu Qiao'er pulled the corner of her little clothes and looked around awkwardly.

"How old are you to pick them up?" Thinking that Chu Chu and Tie Zhu were abandoned since childhood, Xu Xiaoxiao's mood couldn't be calm, a bad picture appeared in his mind, and the guilt hit like a wave, and he couldn't wait to experience all this.

"When I was just born, I picked up these two little ones on the corner of an alley." Liu Qiao'er touched the head of the iron pillar and said softly.

Xu Xiaoxiao lowered her head and looked at the firelight, suppressing the guilt of her underwear, her nose turned red instantly, she was the one who should have experienced all this, but she let her two favorite relatives bear it for her.

"Meat, fragrant." Chu Chu broke free of Liu Dahua's arm, jumped off his thigh, and walked to the cauldron to lift the lid.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly grabbed Chu Chu's hand, "It's hot." ”

Chu Chu mischievously took his hand back, revealing a teasing expression, "Hahaha, I've been fooled." ”

Xu Xiaoxiao scraped Chu Chu's nose helplessly, held her in his arms, opened the lid of the pot, and turned over the chicken in the cauldron with a spatula.

Most of the villagers bring their cherished wild boar meat to stir-fry, but they only have simple cooking techniques, and they are not blessed with spices, and the taste can only fill their stomachs.

The villagers who smelled the chicken pursed their lips and tried to swallow their saliva, enduring the unhappiness in their hearts and burying their heads in the bowl of clear soup and watery wild boar.

"Girl, take the liberty of dyeing, can you give some silver to buy a portion of your cauldron's food?" A male voice with a strong magnetism appeared above Xu Xiaoxiao.

She vigilantly picked up the spatula and slapped it in the direction of the sound, but when the spatula fell, it was blocked by a matching sword.

"Presumptuous." The faint firelight shone on the face of the master of the sword, and although the firelight was weak, he could still see that the person in front of him had a murderous aura on his face.

"Who are you?" Xu Xiaoxiao protected Liu Dahua and Chu Chu Tiezhu behind him, and Liu Qiaoer sneaked away to find Li Zheng while the predecessors were not paying attention.

The place where they camped was some distance from Liujia Village, and the reason why they stayed away from the villagers was because Xu Xiaoxiao wanted to make modern food, and was worried that the modern ingredients would be found by the villagers and cause trouble, so they chose to settle down not far from Liujia Village.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm scared of you all by appearing out of nowhere."

Under the light of the fire, Zhao Huan came, wearing a dark gold silk totem robe on his body, a crystal clear jade hairpin on his long hair, the facial features on his face were as handsome as a knife, and his body exuded a kind of king of the world, and his beautiful face was pouting with a dissolute smile at this time.

Xu Xiaoxiao frowned and glanced at the man in front of him, and had to sigh in his heart that this person's appearance is definitely rare in the world, if it is placed in modern times, wouldn't it be able to fascinate the hearts of thousands of girls.

Liu Xiaohua put down the chopsticks in her hand and stepped forward to pull Chu Chu and Tiezhu into her arms and retreated behind the donkey's body.

"Who are you?" Although Xu Xiaoxiao admired the man's appearance, she was always sensible, so she naturally didn't get confused, and took a few steps back, keeping a distance, and said.

"When I passed by here, I smelled the ingredients cooked by the girl during the break, and the fragrance of the servant, so I took the liberty to ask." The man bowed down with both hands to apologize, holding a fan decorated with plum blossoms in his hand, and his temperament was very different from that of ordinary children of the family, and his gestures carried an innate nobility.

Xu Xiaoxiao pursed his lips and squinted his apricot eyes, thinking about how true and false what the man said in front of him, seeing that he was dressed like a rich child who could not escape the famine, his face was ruddy, his lips were moist, his hair was coiled on his head in an orderly manner, and his body was spotless.

But they are clear-sighted refugees who have fled the famine, and they have no money on them to worry about, so people who don't have to worry about food and clothing will naturally not pay attention to them.

The man saw Xu Xiao's confusion, hooked his lips and smiled, "How about I barter with the girl?" ”
