Chapter 5: Each Carries a Ghost
The duck eggs, which are covered under the mound, are roasted at high temperatures and give off a very attractive aroma.
The years on the side sniffed and couldn't help but swallow saliva.
"Hungry, aren't you?" Seeing that the little guy looked like a little gluttonous cat, Bai Mushuang's originally cold expression warmed a lot.
Sui Sui was hungry, but he was still holding on there, his stomach was hungry, but his mouth was very hard: "I'm not hungry, I'm not hungry at all." ”
"The eggs are ready." She took a stick of wood and tossed away the mound, revealing three roasted duck eggs.
Wrap the large leaves to insulate the heat, break the eggshell, and let the white and tender eggs emerge from the eggshell.
This series of operations made Sui Sui stunned.
In fact, it is all very simple work, but Bai Mushuang's movements are fast and neat, and she looks very handsome.
"How about a taste." If you have soy sauce, it should taste better if you dip it in soy sauce, but it will taste good without soy sauce.
"Delicious...... Good ......" The little guy was really hungry, eating wild duck eggs in a big gulp, Bai Mushuang was afraid that he would choke on the egg yolk inside, and patted him on the back.
The three wild duck eggs were all eaten up by Sui Sui in a blink of an eye, and after he finished eating, he remembered that he forgot to leave one for Bai Mushuang.
It's not because my father didn't teach her well, it's just that the family is too poor, Bai Mushuang was hungry and full before she got married, after she married Xiao Ruoqing, everything she could eat at home was eaten by herself, and she never left a little for the child, I remember that my aunt gave them two eggs a few days ago, saying that it was for the child to replenish his body, but in the end he was eaten by the vicious stepmother, and only left them a little bit of rice soup.
is still the stepmother, the voice and face are the same, but the feeling is completely different.
The stepmother in front of her is still fierce, with a straight face all day long, but she is not bad for him and his brother.
"Stepmother, I forgot to leave one for you." He was afraid of being beaten, and his voice was about to cry when he spoke.
Hearing Sui Sui say this, Bai Mushuang wanted to laugh a little again, and hurriedly patted his little head: "It's okay, these three wild duck eggs were originally specially roasted for you by your stepmother, you can pad it first, and I will make something delicious for you after I go back and exchange the things for silver coins." ”
"Can these things be replaced with copper plates?"
In these years, meat is definitely more expensive than grain, but how much copper plate can be exchanged for, he can't imagine that he has never seen money when he is too young.
"You can change it, and you can change it a lot." A basket of matsutake mushrooms can be exchanged for at least ten taels of silver, and the remaining mushrooms should not be worth much everywhere, when the time comes, the mushrooms will be kept at home and then the two children will use the game to boil a pot of wild mushroom soup, the two of them look too thin, and they have to think of raising the meat to raise it to be chubby and strong.
The two of them, who had gained a lot of money, went down the mountain with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and finally walked to the thatched house, and saw the thin little figure standing in the house, and there was a harsh sound from time to time.
"Year after year, what do you sharpen your knife for?" After getting closer, Bai Mushuang saw clearly that the little doll was sharpening knives there. "Are you trying to slash me?"
"Don't worry about it!" The boy immediately stopped sharpening his knife, and his eyes swept towards the woman in the cold wind like an eagle.
When he saw the boy standing behind the woman, his originally cold gaze instantly softened.
"Years old, not yet!" After just being gentle for a while, the young man said in a cold voice again, "You follow this fierce woman, aren't you afraid that she will sell you directly for silver when she is hungry?" ”
Hearing Nian Nian say this, Bai Mushuang snorted and laughed: "Just the two of you are like little bean sprouts, I really want to sell it, how much money can I sell it for?" ”
"Do you hear that? She just wants to fatten you up and sell you, what are you going to do? Do you still count the money for her after selling it? The more the boy spoke, the more anxious he became, "Come here." ”
"Brother, stepmother, she is not bad, she just got me three wild duck eggs, which are delicious." The taste of wild duck eggs is really beautiful, just a simple roast and a cover, the taste is particularly fragrant, and it tastes completely different from ordinary eggs.
The young man frowned, and he didn't care about the fierce woman standing in front of him, so he stepped forward quickly and grabbed the little guy's ear: "You are just greedy, and when the time comes, you will even take your life into it, I see what you will eat!" ”
"Woo, but I'm hungry, I haven't eaten in days."
"Think about Dad, think about your eldest brother, are you worthy of them? Think about how this fierce woman did to our three brothers before, you can really eat it. "The more you scold every year, the more fierce you become.
For his abuse, a lot of it should be true, Bai Mushuang didn't want to quibble, she put a small basket on the ground: "I used to be bad to you, but now I'm different, believe it or not, I'm going to the town now, who will lead the way?" ”
"What are you doing in town?" Every year, he felt that Bai Mushuang was playing sloppy and wanted to trick them into selling them in the town.
"Don't dare?" The woman hooked her lips and smiled, and her alluring posture made people unable to take their eyes off it, "I originally thought that Xiao Ruoqing's son was so powerful, but now it seems that he is a soft bone who dares to say and dare not do it." ”
In my memory, the second Xiao Jingnian is the worst of the three villain's sons, not only thoughtful, but also has a lot of ghost ideas, but the male and female protagonists in the novel have all suffered from Xiao Jingnian.
If memory serves, this kid's forbearance is forbearance, but he is very disgusted that others compare him to his father, so Bai Mushuang deliberately used this to provoke him.
Unexpectedly, Nian Nian was really enraged, and stepped forward: "I'll take you there." ”
"Brother, I'm afraid, I'm with you too, right?"
"You're too young to go so far, besides, what if your eldest brother can't see you when you come back? And Dad, what if he wakes up? You have to wait for the big brother to wait for the father. What Xiao Jingnian was thinking in his heart was that if Bai Mushuang played tricks, he could find a way to solve her on the way to the town.
"Come here." Nian Nian suddenly pulled Nian Sui aside and carefully advised, "I'll go to the town with that woman in a while, but don't worry, I'll do it when I have the opportunity, and you will stay at home to watch the house." ”
"I ......"
Seeing that the little guy was about to cry again, Nian Nian put a hand on his lips, bent down and said to him calmly, "If my brother is not there, you will be the eldest child in the family, and you must protect your father, but I also promise you that I will come back safely." ”
After saying that, he turned around and disappeared into the woods.
