Chapter Seventy-Three: Leisure

Yao's mother and Lin Yao hurriedly pulled the Jin family to keep her, but unfortunately the Jin family was determined to leave, and the two didn't keep it in the end.

After the Jin family left, Lin Yao hurriedly put the crabs and shrimp into two wooden barrels separately, and then carefully scrubbed them with a small brush with Yao's mother, after washing, there were exactly two pots, she and Yao's mother lit the fire separately, and then added green onions and ginger and an appropriate amount of water to the pot, covered the pot and boiled, and then took advantage of this time Lin Yao rolled some noodles with the noodles again, and the water boiled after the noodles were ready, Lin Yao hurriedly put the crabs and shrimp into the two pots to boil.

"Mother, you look at the fire first, I'll go to the mountain and call Xiao Moyao." Lin Yao stood up, patted her body and said.

"Eh, go ahead, mother watch." Yao's mother responded.

When Lin Yao called Xiao Moyao down from the mountain, the seafood had already been cooked, Yao's mother was holding a big wooden basin to catch crabs, Lin Yao was busy with the remaining soup of the shrimp, put the noodles in and stirred, and then added some chili powder, and only fished out after cooking.

Lin Yao took another wooden basin and filled it with some crabs and shrimps, and asked Xiao Moyao to send them to the Jin family.

When he returned, the three of them began to eat.

The autumn breeze rises, the crabs are fat and tender, not to mention the freshness of the shrimp, the noodles are soaked in the soup of the shrimp, which is more vigorous and fresh, and the chili powder enhances the flavor, so delicious that Lin Yao has to bite off his tongue, Xiao Moyao lowered his head and ate two large bowls of noodles.

"Don't just eat noodles, come, I'll peel this crab for you, try it." Lin Yao knew that Xiao Moyao didn't have the patience to peel these crabs and shrimps, so she had time to peel a crab and shrimp for him while eating.

Xiao Moyao caught a glimpse of the wound on Lin Yao's little hand, and immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks in distress, "I'm done eating, I'll peel it for you, look at your hand, it's going to be pierced into a honeycomb." ”

Hearing this, Lin Yao nodded at him with a smile, "Okay, then thank you Xianggong." ”

Yao's mother watched the intimate interaction between the two from the side, and she was also very happy.

The three of them were sweating profusely during this meal, which was very refreshing, and when they went back, Lin Yao was a little coquettish and didn't want to walk, Xiao Moyao picked her up without saying a word and walked back slowly.

——————

Here, Liu Shuzi's house, Liu Meng handed a bulging bag to Zhao, "Mother, today Yaoyao sent us an extra 100 wen red envelopes, she said that next month our wages will be doubled, this is my salary for more than a month, a total of 730 wen, you take it first." ”

Hearing this, Liu Zhuang on the table was staring at the bulging money bag, his hands under the table were clenched tightly, and he was so jealous in his heart, why could this fool earn so much silver, he was unwilling! Obviously, this money should be earned by him.

Sun Erya on his side didn't react, but stared at the plate of pork and cabbage on the table as always, swallowing saliva, this Liu family is really rich, she has meat to eat every meal, she has never eaten any meat before, and the days she got married are the happiest times for her.

Zhao and Liu Shuzi were also very surprised when they heard it, "What? Next month's salary will be doubled, eh, this Yao girl is really generous. Liu Shuzi looked at the pile of money and smashed it, smashed it, and said.

"Yes, but our son is also very tired of getting up early and greedy for darkness these days, Meng'er, don't want this rich mother, you keep it for yourself and become a family in the future, your mother and your father are rich." Zhao looked at Liu Meng and said with a loving smile.

Seeing that the Zhao family had no intention of accepting it, Liu Meng had no choice but to take back the money bag and eat with them.

Here, Liu Xiaohua kept half of the silver, and then handed over the other half of the silver to the Huang family, her family's conditions are not very good She earns an average of more than ten yuan a day to subsidize the family.

Huang took the money and immediately ran out to hide happily, seeing that she was gone, Liu Xiaohua secretly picked up the pair of unembroidered cloth shoes hidden in the cabinet, and began to embroider slowly in the bright moonlight, a pair of shoes is durable to see if the sole is good, this sole Liu Xiaohua has been embroidered for five nights in a row, today this sole should be completed, she embroidered while blushing thinking about what happened between her and Brother Mengzi, Brother Mengzi fell a big bag last time in order to save her head, although he said it was okay, But I still have to take a cloth shoe and thank him for a good time.

The next day, as soon as Lin Yao got up, she obviously felt that the weather was getting colder, she put on a thicker coat, and then began to wash and make breakfast.

Lin Yao went to the greenhouse outside the house to pick some tomatoes and asparagus, and went to the fruit trees on both sides of the house to pick some fresh grapes and pears.

So in the morning she fried two eggs, boiled some venison breast, served some sauces, and two bowls of tomato and egg soup and fruit platter.

After doing it, Lin Yao called Xiao Moyao, who was practicing outside the house, into the house for dinner.

After eating, both of them warmed up a lot and were very comfortable.

Lin Yao took the remaining pieces of venison to Xiao Ash who was licking milk and drinking, Xiao Ash has eaten enough these days, one day at a time, and now he can occasionally escape from the nest, and sometimes dare to run to the bed in the middle of the night, the consequence is of course that Xiao Moyao was ruthlessly kicked out of the door and closed for a night, this guy was locked up all night and knew that the bed could not be on, so he spread joy on other places, Lin Yao looked at its silly appearance and developed more and more in the direction of Erha.

Lin Yao saw that its teeth were sharper, so she wanted to take a few pieces of meat to grind its teeth first, and wait for a few days to wean it.

Xiao Ash was very excited when he smelled the venison, and swallowed it three times and five by two, and then happily circled around Lin Yao, causing Lin Yao to giggle.

After breakfast, Lin Yao took Xiao Moyao to the back of the house when she had nothing to do, she remembered that there was a chestnut tree behind the house, and it was very good to pick some chestnuts to make a chestnut chicken to eat.

As a result, the two were picking chestnuts, and Lin Yao unexpectedly found a thin cucumber seedling, although the cucumber seedling was only half as tall as a modern cucumber vine, but the texture of the leaf vine was a cucumber seedling, and a fist-sized cucumber was formed on it, and the cucumber was a little yellow, and it seemed to be ripe.

But this is also very difficult, you must know that in ancient times cucumbers were a rarity, only the emperor could eat them, or only a few of them were paid by foreign countries every year, and now she was lucky enough to meet one.

Thinking of the crisp and refreshing taste of cucumbers, Lin Yao drooled a little, staring directly at the thin cucumber seedlings.

Xiao Moyao saw Lin Yao smiling and looking fascinated, glanced at the plant in front of her, and was immediately surprised, "This is, cucumber?" ”

He had seen it at a state banquet, but it was much longer than this, and the color was more verdant, and at that time the first emperor remembered his hard work and rewarded him with one, and he ate it three times and five times, and found that it did not taste good, but it was very fragrant and crispy.

"yes." Lin Yao glanced at him with a smile, "It's really rare to find a cucumber from you, quick, help me dig it back, no, I'll do it myself." ”

Lin Yao knelt on the ground like that, and it was not too dirty, holding a small branch and carefully digging up the rhizomes of cucumber seedlings little by little, and finally digging out a large piece of soil and planting it in the greenhouse.

Lin Yao fertilized and watered the cucumber seedling as if he were an ancestor, which was very rare.

Since the cucumber on the cucumber seedling was ripe, Lin Yao picked it off, took out the seeds inside and dried it, and then planted it near the cucumber seedling.

At noon, Lin Yao paused a female pheasant with the chestnut she picked, looking at the pheasant that Xiao Moyao had fortunately caught back, Lin Yao said, "Xiao Moyao, let's circle a fence to raise some ** in the future, so that you don't have to hunt hard in winter, it is best to have both male and female, so that we can still eat fresh wild eggs every day." ”

In fact, now Lin Yao's drunken red face makes a lot of money, and she doesn't need Xiao Moyao to hunt at all, but she has never said anything with her own money, first, she knows that he and Xiao Moyao have no pursuit of that kind of rich and noble life, making money is just for self-defense, and secondly, Xiao Moyao loves to hunt when he is idle, but it is not hard, but this day is gradually getting colder, and the mountain will be closed in another month, so it is more convenient to catch some chickens to raise and eat.

Xiao Moyao nodded, "Okay, I'll go in the afternoon." ”

At noon, the two of them ate chestnut stewed chicken together, and Lin Yao gave the two of them and Xiao Ash a bowl of chicken soup each, and it was very comfortable to drink it warmly.

Lin Yao didn't bother to move after eating, rinsed his mouth and went to bed to take a nap, Xiao Moyao stayed in the kitchen to wash the dishes, and after cleaning up the kitchen, he circled Lin Yao to take a nap on the bed.

In the afternoon, Yao's mother came to their house with a few newly made clothes.

"Mother made you a few more satin linings, for you to change, this is a coat made for Xiaomo, remember to wear more when it's cold." Yao's mother took out the clothes from the basket one by one and said.

"Mother, you are so good, thank you." Lin Yao happily hugged Yao's mother and said with a smile.

"Thank you, mother." Xiao Moyao took the clothes and was also moved in his heart, and thanked Yao's mother with a soft face.

"Hey, we're all a family, thank you, besides, it's not interesting for me to be idle alone, and making a few clothes can be regarded as relieving boredom." Yao's mother waved her hand and said absently, then she looked at Lin Yao and said, "Yaoyao, today a road repair team passed by our village, and the village chief told us to gather at the village gate at three o'clock to discuss the road repair." ”

"Well, it's time for our village to build roads." Lin Yao nodded in agreement, this Peach Blossom Village is poor, and the criss-crossing country roads are all walked out by the people in the village, and they have never been deliberately repaired, which usually walks and makes a living, but when it rains and snows, the dirt roads will become potholed and very muddy and stumbling.
