The boy has a nice name, his name is Winter Melon, and he also has a younger brother named Pumpkin.

Winter melon wears a dogskin hat crookedly, wears a coarse cotton shirt and cotton pants, seven or eight percent new, cotton is filled with porcelain, his brother pumpkin is the same dress as him, at a glance at this dress, you can guess that although their family is not rich, but not poor.

The two brothers like to eat the rock sugar gourd at the mouth of the alley, although the rock sugar gourd in Sanshi Hutong is not as good as that in Nantang Hutong, but it is also famous, big, sugar enough, winter melon likes to eat red bean paste, pumpkin likes walnut kernels.

On the first day, only Liu Da, who sold rock sugar hulu, remembered them.

Why? Of course, I bought more and ate more.

I ate two winter melons, but the little pumpkin, one person ate five, five, if he hadn't eaten rock sugar gourd and was hungry, he might have eaten it.

After the two brothers ate the rock sugar gourd, they went to eat the egg scramble, the egg scramble of Baoding Mansion, inherited from the practice of Xinyang, Henan, the cake blank was fried to eight ripe, cut a hole on the side of the cake, inserted into the cake with a fast seed and stirred along both sides, so that the upper and lower layers of the cake were separated, and the eggs were beaten in a knock bowl, poured into the cake, and the cake mouth was pinched together. Sprinkle some oil on the pan and continue to fry until the eggs in the cake are cooked.

Winter melon especially likes to eat this kind of egg scones, in her previous life, she went to a place, where the egg scones should be fried first, a bunch of shredded vegetables are fried, smeared with sauce, and rolled into the cake, although the taste is rich, but the winter melon feels that this kind of non-rolling vegetables is more delicious.

Winter melon ate a scrub, pumpkin ate five, in fact, usually pumpkin eat three, today rock sugar gourd eat a little more, pumpkin a little hungry.

Mrs. Han, who sells egg scones, also remembers them.

After the little brothers ate the egg scones, they went to drink the haggis soup again, and the hot haggis soup went down to the stomach, and the whole body was warm and comfortable.

When drinking haggis soup, winter melon picked all the haggis in his bowl for pumpkin to eat, and only drank soup himself, Master Ma, who sold haggis soup, relented, and his brother was reluctant to eat it, so he gave it all to his younger brother.

Master Ma simply scooped a large spoonful of haggis and poured it all into the bowl of winter melon.

Winter melon wants to cry, he just wants to drink a bowl of soup, he doesn't want to eat haggis!

After drinking the haggis soup, the winter melon bought two rolls of shredded tofu from Gaobeidian, gave a roll to his younger brother, and the brothers took it in their hands and walked into the alley while eating.

The two of them obviously came for the first time, and they were curious about everything, and a greased and powdered eldest sister beckoned to the winter melon: "My brother, come quickly, let my sister hurt you." ”

Pumpkin was puzzled and asked Winter Melon: "Brother, when did we have a sister?" ”

The winter melon slapped the pumpkin's dogskin hat with a slap: "Don't look at it, be careful with the eye of the needle." ”

Seeing that Donggua ignored her, the eldest sister rolled her eyes, shook her handkerchief, and went to greet the other one: "Ouch, uncle, why haven't I seen you for a while, my sister wants you to die." ”

The pumpkin opened its mouth wide, ah, it's right not to look at it, and if you look at it again, you will really get a needle's eye.

I can't walk anymore when I walk, the people in front are crowded and everyone is next to each other, and the winter melon asks, ha, the front is a cockfight.

Pumpkin asked, "Can any chicken fight?" What if you win and have money, but what if you lose? ”

Winter melon said: "Lost? If you lose, you will stew and eat. ”

"It's a shame to really eat it." Pumpkin swallows.

"That's a chicken, it's not a human, of course you have to eat it if you lose."

The sound of winter melon is not small, don't look at the noise in front, but it is still heard.

Someone laughed out loud, and the winter melon looked over and saw that it was a girl wearing a floral cotton jacket, no, she combed her hair, this is a little daughter-in-law.

The little daughter-in-law is different from the young woman in this alley, she has no fat powder, she has thick eyebrows and big eyes, her skin is a little dark, her figure is seen from the side, and her shoulders are a little thick, as if she has done rough work.

"Girl, what are you laughing at?" The winter melon smiled evilly, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth.

"How old are you, and you still call me a girl? Call sister, I'm older than you. "The little daughter-in-law is also a cool character, not very beautiful, but she looks good when she smiles, and her eyes are crooked like crescent moons.

Winter melon walked towards the little daughter-in-law, put her hands in her sleeves, and rubbed her shoulders against the little daughter-in-law: "Sister, sister, sister, I call you sister." ”

The little daughter-in-law dodged and slapped him: "You have lice?" What are you messing with? ”

The winter melon does not hide, let the little daughter-in-law hit him, and he wears thick clothes in winter, and it doesn't hurt to hit it.

"Girl, are you also here for cockfighting?" Winter melon asked cheekily.

"The head of the house is inside, I'm waiting for him." The little daughter-in-law said.

"You're married? Ouch! Winter melon covered his face and was in pain, "I still want to come here to gamble a few handfuls, earn some silver, and marry you, why do you get married?" ”

The little daughter-in-law is often here, and she is not surprised by these Hutong strings, and when you meet for the first time, you will marry me, talk nonsense.

"Don't be poor, let my boss hear it, and pick your skin." The little daughter-in-law said cruel words, but there was a smile in her tone.

Winter melon wanted to fly his eyes, but he couldn't, so he had to blink a few times: "Sister, don't forget brother." ”

"Phew, you shameless, you don't learn well at a young age." The little daughter-in-law glared at him, then pulled her neck and looked inside.

At this time, the pumpkin, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke: "Brother, you ask this little girl, is the rooster she loses stewed in an iron pot or a casserole, I like to eat iron pot." ”

The little daughter-in-law's ears were very smart, and before the winter melon could speak, she rushed in front and scolded: "You little donkey calf, who do you call your little sister, and why do you have to lose my chicken, why do you have to stew if you lose, return the iron pot, return the casserole, you are a starving ghost reincarnated." ”

Pumpkin was frightened and hid behind Winter Melon, who hurriedly laughed: "Good sister, don't be angry, this is our brother, our family, don't hurt the peace for this child's words." ”

"Phew, who is the same family as you, he is your brother, not mine." The little daughter-in-law scolded.

"It's a family in the morning and evening, and it's all in the morning." The winter melon grinned and laughed so hard that it was a.

The little daughter-in-law glared at him and continued to look at the fighting, but the eyes of the winter melon were still stuck to her, and the little daughter-in-law finally couldn't pretend anymore and asked, "Are you deliberately close to me, is there something?" ”

"It's okay, I just want to see my sister more." Winter melon looks like a hooligan.

The little daughter-in-law snorted coldly: "I've been mixing in Sanshi Hutong since I was a child, but it's the first time I've seen the two of you, let's say, what are you here for?" ”

"Sister Ruhua?" Winter melon looked at her with blank eyes.

"Phew, I'm not called Ruhua, I'm called Xi Meizi." Hi sister corrected.

"Hi girl, don't you remember brother? When you married Hu Dafu the year before last, my brother cried at the door of your house, don't you remember? ”

"Bah, you son of a bitch, you are talking nonsense here, I can tell you, I have a wide range of people in charge, and there are many people who know him here, if you let him know, you plant grass on his head, you see that he will not kill you."

Xi Meizi stretched out her hand and twisted it towards the face of the winter melon.
