Chapter 5 Doesn't Taste Good? Can't afford it!

Chen Xi put down the medicine basket and was just about to see what Su Cheng was doing, when Su Cheng walked out of the house with two bowls of hot and shiny noodles.

"You're back!" Seeing that Chen Ci was also in the courtyard, Su Cheng said happily: "It's just right, I made oily noodles, let's eat them together while it's hot." ”

Chen Xi was stunned, and was pulled by Su Cheng to sit down at the table.

"Oily noodles?"

He had traveled so many places before, how could he never have heard of this way of eating.

I haven't eaten it before, but it looks really delicious.

Su Cheng nodded and handed him a pair of chopsticks: "My unique craft, you can taste it." ”

The thick noodles in the bowl were drizzled with a layer of fragrant chili oil sauce, and the sun had not yet set, and the afterglow on the noodles also added a layer of golden light to the ordinary bowl of oily noodles.

Chen Ci swallowed his saliva, tentatively picked up a few noodles and put them in his mouth. The aroma of spicy seeds exploded in his mouth in an instant, opening his appetite at once.

There were no more side dishes in the bowl, but this one taste alone was enough to conquer his taste buds.

What kind of delicacy is this?

Chen Ci had a trace of suspicion in his heart, had he been hungry for too long?

Can a simple bowl of noodles be made so delicious?

Unconvinced, he pulled another bite into his mouth.

It smells so good.

After that, the third and fourth mouthfuls...... Chen Xi's chopsticks never stopped.

A smile appeared on Su Cheng's lips.

There is no man in this world who can't be conquered by her cooking skills!

Taking advantage of Chen Xi's good mood, Su Cheng said what he had been thinking about today, "Fourth brother, I want to discuss something with you." ”

Chen Xi's voice was deep, and his eyes were still drunk on the noodles in front of him, "You say..."

Su Cheng: "Isn't there an empty room next to the firewood house, I want to live there." ”

In addition to the kitchen, the Chen family has two rooms, one where Chen Xi and Little Sesame Ball live, and a small one that is empty.

The house was small, but at least she didn't have to worry about someone breaking into the house in the middle of the night.

The chopsticks in Chen Ci's hand paused, raised his head and said, "That's the utility room." ”

Su Cheng immediately said, "I've already cleaned it up." ”

Chen Xi's brow furrowed.

Did she tell herself all this after all the arrangements?

Looking at Chen Xi's dark eyes, a trace of uneasiness flashed in Su Cheng's heart.

He's not going to be angry, is he?

"I don't have much experience living with other people, and I still ...... a little when I was suddenly asked to sleep with someone else"

"Whatever you want."

Su Cheng had prepared a lot of rhetoric, but Chen Xi's sudden promise made her stunned.

Is the fourth brother so easy to talk to??

He lowered his head and continued to eat noodles. The noodles at the bottom of the bowl are still shiny, but for some reason, they don't taste as good as they just now.

Suddenly, Chen Xi thought of something, his eyelids twitched violently, and asked, "How much oil did you use to make this meal?" ”

The half jar of lard in the kitchen is going to be eaten for a month, so Cheng Niang shouldn't use all the oil at home for a month in order to cook a meal, right?

Su Cheng said: "I used two large spoons. ”

Chen Xi's breathing was stagnant, which was suffocating.

Holding the fragrant and sultry oil splash in his hand, Chen Xi opened his mouth and was silent for a few more moments. In the end, I couldn't help but say, "Let's make less oily noodles in the future." ”

Su Cheng was puzzled: "Isn't it delicious?" ”

Chen Ci raised his head to meet her sincere eyes and said seriously: "I can't afford to raise it." ”

These two meals are refreshing, but won't they be fishy for the next half month?

Su Cheng: "......"

really tactfully told her that she was a loser......

At night, Su Cheng cleaned up the kitchen and came out, Yuan Ren had already slept, and only Chen Ci was still sitting in the yard pounding medicine.

Su Cheng walked over curiously and asked, "Why are you picking so many herbs?" Ready to sell it in town? ”

She had heard that some poor farmers would go to the mountains to collect medicines, and the processed herbs would be traded in the town, and when they were lucky, they could sell them for half a bag of rice.

She squatted beside Chen Xi, her small figure curled up together, and even the elongated figure of the candle flame was small, like a little fox cub without any threat.

Chen Ci lowered his head and pounded the medicine, but did not speak.

Su Cheng pursed his lips, his words were really few.

If you don't say it, don't say it, she's not curious!

She goes to sleep!

Su Cheng turned around and walked into the utility room and closed the door.

Chen Xi turned his head to look at her at this time, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his dark eyes, but he had a moonstring-like smile on his lips.

Early the next morning, Su Cheng opened the door and saw a small white jar in front of the door.

When she opened it, it turned out to be a jar of ointment.

So Chen Xi went up the mountain to collect medicine yesterday not to sell it for money, but to make ointment for her to smear her wounds. Then why didn't he tell himself when he was pounding the medicine last night?

She looked down at the ointment in her hand, and a warm feeling crept in her heart.

Although Chen Ci doesn't like to talk, he is good to people.

After breakfast, Su Cheng was worried about how to solve this meal in the afternoon.

The little sesame ball was kicking stones in the yard, Su Cheng had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly said to him: "Yuanren, do you want to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables with your mother?" ”

Chen Yuanren's eyes lit up: "Wild vegetables? ”

Su Cheng tempted: "Well, maybe there will be other gains." ”

Of course, digging wild vegetables is secondary, in fact, she wants to find an opportunity to take out some materials from the space to replenish the body of this little cub.

Where do little children know which wild vegetables can be eaten, it is nothing more than fun.

Chen Yuanren immediately agreed, "Okay, I'll go with A-Niang!" ”

Su Cheng smiled slightly, put her small bamboo basket on her back, and left the house with Chen Yuanren in the hand.

She was not familiar with the mountains near here, and Su Cheng didn't dare to take Chen Yuanren too far, taking advantage of Chen Yuanren digging wild vegetables with a small hoe, Su Cheng seized the opportunity to find four eggs from the space and put them in the grass pile on the side.

Then Su Cheng let out a decent exclamation, "Yuanren, look what this is!" ”

Little Sesame Ball ran to her with a more surprised expression than her, "There are eggs!" ”

Su Cheng immediately took out the eggs and put them in the bamboo basket, "It must be the eggs laid by the pheasant, let's take them back and cook them!" ”

"Good!"

Then Su Cheng concocted the same method, took out a few eggs and lied to Yuanren that it was from the pheasant.

The morning passed, and they didn't dig up a few wild vegetables, but they picked up a lot of eggs first.

Su Cheng returned to the village with a dozen eggs on his back satisfied, and Chen Yuanren was almost happy to fly.

Unfortunately, when they went home, they passed by the Wang family, who had killed her husband before, and even more unfortunately, Aunt Wang happened to sweep the floor in front of the door, and several people happened to meet each other.

Her son was killed to death, and Aunt Wang hated Su Cheng so much.

Although he sold her to a widower in the village for the price of a chicken, the hatred in his heart was hard to dissipate.

As soon as she saw her passing by the door, Aunt Wang spat at her viciously: "Phew, broom star!" Stay away from my house! ”
