Chapter 18: A Dark Shadow

The sister and brother were tired for a day, Zhong Xixi wanted to take some ready-made ones out and eat them directly, but he was afraid that the neighbors would visit the door or the fragrance would waft out, and the big fish and meat would not be able to explain.

On the other hand, I used to hear that the cooking made by the stove with a big pot for burning fires in the countryside was particularly fragrant, but now that the conditions are sufficient, she is also a little eager to try.

"Why don't you make a pimple soup?"

It happened that Aunt Sun hadn't eaten the wowotou sent by her in the morning, Zhong Xixi walked around the warehouse with tens of billions of thoughts, and after a while, a dozen eggs appeared on the stove, and a few small wild onions were found from the back weeds.

There was also a bag of flour, about three catties, she quickly found a woven bag of flour that she had brought back from shopping before, and burned the original packaging.

Forget it, plus a little bit of stuff in the morning, I actually took things five times today?

The number of times is more than yesterday, and it seems that taking good care of the body will increase the number of times.

"Gurgling ......"

At this time, the stomach that sang the empty city plan disrupted Zhong Xixi's thoughts.

That's it, tens of billions of warehouses can't run away, now it's better to solve the problem of food and clothing and talk about something else.

The branches that were cleaned up in the yard today were just used as firewood, and the fire was lit to start the pot to burn the oil, Zhong Xixi fried the chopped shallots, added a drop of salt, and stir-fried it skillfully.

Finally, I added some water, and when the pot boiled, I put in the gnocchi, the broken eggs, and the chopped green onions, and the smell of the gnocchi soup was already wafting out with the wind.

Zhong Mumu had already smelled the fragrance and ran over, "Sister, what are you doing, why is it so fragrant!" ”

The words were said to Zhong Xixi, but his eyes were staring at the pimple soup and side dishes on the side of the stove without blinking, and he swallowed one bite after another.

"Hungry?"

After a busy day, adults can't stand the hunger, let alone children who are growing their bodies.

I haven't eaten two full meals at Liu Meili's house, Zhong Xixi specially used the big bowl I bought today when I gave Zhong Mumu a meal, "Mu Mu, help my sister bring the head of the nest to the house, and you can start the meal!" ”

The condiments were willing to be put away, and the heat was just right, and Zhong Mumu didn't raise his head for a meal, and the nest that Aunt Sun brought was very big, and the young child was stunned and ate two in one go.

"Sister, your cooking is too fragrant!"

yes, it's really fragrant.

Even Aunt Sun, who had just put down the dishes and chopsticks at home, was hooked by the fragrance and got up to find the source.

"Whose cooking is so fragrant, the oil has to pour more than half a bottle!"

Before going out, he muttered about the luxury of the cook, and when he found that the smell came from the old house, Aunt Sun's attitude took a 180-degree turn, "This child is a promising, life is so difficult that she has not been knocked down, and at a young age, she took her six-year-old brother out to stand up on her own, and her life is also with relish." ”

"What's the point?"

It wasn't just Aunt Sun who followed the taste, her man Wang Xiang followed closely with a pipe, staring at the yard across the door and swallowing uncontrollably, "If you take twenty yuan, you dare to cook with such fanfare, and the money will be spent in a few days, don't you have to go home and beg Liu Meimei's family?" In the end, it is a woman's family, with long hair and short knowledge, and she can only see the present and ignore the future. ”

It's not easy for a little girl to take her younger brother to make a living, and she can't get used to seeing her own man's appearance, Aunt Sun unceremoniously raised her hand and slapped Wang Xiang on the back, "If you have the ability, you can also find some brown sugar to nourish my body?" People are capable, but they don't have anything to do with you even if they stew meat at home every day. ”

"You......

"Okay, hurry home, don't be unable to eat grapes here and say that grapes are sour."

There are no entertainment activities in the countryside, usually after dinner and picking up, Aunt Sun pushed Wang Xiang was about to close the door, and the moment she turned around, she caught a glimpse of a black shadow under the wall of the old house.

"Huh?"

Thinking that she was dazzled, after Wang Xiang went back, Aunt Sun took the opportunity of closing the door to squint and look at the corner, is there really someone?

Think of a little girl and a six-year-old child in the yard.

Aunt Sun didn't think about it, she opened the door like a door, and swaggered into the courtyard of the opposite door.

"Xixi, I'm eating!"

"Aunt Sun, you're here!"

Sensing Aunt Sun's gaze, Zhong Xixi put down his nest head and moved to the side, "Have you eaten?" I'm a little late at cooking, so sit down and eat some together. ”

Is it really that he is too high-profile?

This is the first meal of living here, and the simple pimple soup is eye-catching, so how can you explain eating a roast chicken or something in the future?

"No, no, I've eaten at home."

Feeling out of shape, Aunt Sun hurriedly waved her hand, remembering the purpose of her coming.

He hurriedly glanced out of the window, approached and lowered his voice and said, "Auntie didn't mean anything else when I came over, but when I closed the door just now, I saw a black shadow under the wall of your courtyard, sneakily probing into the courtyard, I don't know what I'm thinking."

At home, you and Mu Mu are alert when you sleep at night, and you shout hard when you have something, I and your uncle are at home. ”

"Someone out there?"

"It shouldn't be gone at this time, seeing that someone is coming, it must be gone."

In the countryside, more things are better than less, and Aunt Sun can be regarded as something she didn't see, but she also made a special trip, but she still guessed that the other party was stuttering for this.

"Thank you, Aunt Sun."

Secretly scolded himself, Zhong Xixi turned around and took three eggs, "You take these back and give them to the child to taste." ”

"I can't help it, we've all eaten, you can keep it and Mu Mu to eat more."

"Auntie, don't be polite to me, and I won't be polite to you."

Worried that Aunt Sun would not accept it, Zhong Xixi directly stuffed it into Aunt Sun's hand, and said first, "I still have something to trouble you, except for the cabinet you sent at home, there is no furniture at home, and I also want to ask Uncle Wang to help make a table, chair and bench." ”

Aunt Sun's man is a carpenter.

Now there is no finished furniture for sale, and whoever adds new furniture or anything is invited to work by carpenters.

"I don't know when Uncle Wang will be free, I have to bother Aunt Sun to go back and ask, as for the price, Uncle Wang usually gives people what price the furniture is, we will give it at what price."

Just hit a small object such as a table, chair and bench, and ask yourself if you don't know how long you will have to queue.

The egg can be regarded as a return to Aunt Sun to ventilate the news, and it is also a stepping stone to ask Uncle Wang to help break the furniture.

"This girl, why is she still talking about money, and she is polite to her aunt."

"Let's go one yard to one yard, and there are still a lot of places where you have to trouble your aunt."

Speaking of this, Aunt Sun continued to be polite and a little deliberate, "That's it, Xixi, your uncle's wages will be exchanged for brown sugar, and you can save this money in case you buy something else." ”

"By the way, I'll take a stick to block the door, and if there's anything, you'll call someone!"
