Qin Xiaoniang looked behind her, but she really didn't see anyone, "I was still picking up hay in the forest just now!" ”

Sister Nian asked in a childish voice, "Nothing will happen, right?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll take a look!"

Song He'er walked in the direction pointed out by Sister Nian, although there are mountains and rivers in this place, but there is no village in front of the village, there is no store in the back, and it is very desolate.

The trees are big and the forest is deep, and Song He'er walked for a long time before she found two thin figures not far away.

"Fourth aunt!" Song He'er shouted.

Chundi heard the voice, turned her head and waved at her, and then ran over with a few bundles of dry straw......

"He'er, look, these straws are all found at the foot of the barren mountain in front of us, Chunrao still has a lot of them in her hands, if we spread these on the ground, we won't feel so cold when we sleep!"

Song He'er noticed the wound on her hand, and suddenly felt a little reluctant in her heart, "Fourth aunt, do you have a sore hand?" ”

Chundi looked at her rough hand, and suddenly laughed: "What does this hurt?" In the past, although there were servants to serve in the General's Mansion, there were also times when I did needlework by myself, so selling this little strength is nothing! ”

This is indeed true, just because Chundi and Chunrao are concubines, so the eldest lady always doesn't take these two sisters-in-law in her eyes, thinking that they are money-losers who eat rice.

On weekdays, in addition to beating and scolding, they are short of food and clothing, and these two people are really miserable.

Song He'er breathed a sigh of relief, bent down and hugged a bundle of straw, and returned to the team with them.

After Zhang Xiu'e put out the spicy crayfish, she made a simple chicken soup, using Song He'er's leftover ingredients and those moist salts.

Although the color is not very good, it smells reasonable, after all, on the way to exile, it is good to be able to drink such a nutritious chicken soup.

"He'er, quick, put a bowl on your mother."

Song He'er nodded, picked up the soup spoon and served a chicken leg to Qin Xiaoniang, and a bowl to Sister Nian'er, and the rest of the people were enough.

A bowl of chicken soup for one person goes down to the stomach, and the stomach is warm.

Zhang Xiu'e brought the crayfish to everyone and asked, "How should this little guy eat?" ”

Song He'er smiled, picked up a brightly colored crayfish in the basin, put it in her mouth first and sucked the juice, then pinched the head and removed the tail, and took out the meat hidden in the lobster's tail with her tongue.

"Look, this meat is very chewy and delicious!"

Zhang Xiu'e understood at a glance, and hurriedly grabbed one, followed Song He'er's appearance, sucked it first, then pinched the head and tail, and ate the meat in the middle.

Zhang Xiu'e chewed a few bites, and immediately showed a fluttering expression, "This ...... It's so delicious, I've never seen this kind of thing before, I said Xiao He'er, how do you make it so delicious? ”

"I went to school in a book, I read a recipe left over from the previous dynasty, and it said that this kind of thing can be eaten, and it also talked about cooking techniques, so I remembered it!"

Zhang Xiu'e praised again and again: "Look! Sister Nian, you can learn more from your fifth sister in the future. ”

Qin Xiaoniang smiled modestly: "My daughter, I don't know what's going on lately, there are a lot of ghost ideas, you said that when you were in the General's Mansion before, you saw the two daughters next to the eldest lady, just like a mouse and a cat, and she didn't even dare to say anything, you see now, I dare to refute them head-on!" ”

Song He'er puffed out her mouth: "Mother, people used to hide clumsy!" There is a saying that pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger~"

As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter.

Chun Rao ate a few crayfish, her spicy throat hurt, and she hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks, and ran to the side to pour a few sips of cold water.

"No, it's too spicy, I can't eat it!"

Qin Xiaoniang stepped forward and smoothed her back: "I knew I would have left you some more chicken soup just now......

Chunrao's violent cough caused the ladies next to her to look over one after another.

Li Qiang's daughter-in-law thought about it again, and finally, stood up and walked towards this side step by step.

"Qin Xiaoniang, we ...... I also want to try crayfish, you see, I will exchange the eggs for it, they are all cooked, and there are more than ten of them, all for you...... Because the kids haven't eaten it either, it's ......"

Qin Xiaoniang was a little surprised: "Can children eat spicy?" That's spicy! ”

"Yes! Our hometown is from Jingzhou, and we are used to eating millet over there spicy! ”

Song He'er heard the word 'Jingzhou' not far away, and suddenly thought of something......

Although Jingzhou was the land of the Southern Barbarians in ancient times, in modern society, it is known as the hometown of spicy Hunan, Hunan cuisine is famous throughout the country, especially the northerners are accustomed to eating salty, occasionally eat a spicy meal, can arouse people's appetite.

Since these people are from Jingzhou, they must know how to make dishes, right?

Compared with the modern gourd painting scoop, or the ancestors on the most primitive cooking techniques are more pure, if you open a restaurant in business in the future, the use of modern dishes, with ancient techniques, must have made a profit!

Thinking of this, Song He'er didn't think about it, walked forward with a clay pot of crayfish, and stuffed it into the hands of Li Qiang's daughter-in-law, "Tian Niangzi, you can taste it, and see which one is more spicy than the taste of your Jingzhou cuisine!" ”

Li Qiang's daughter-in-law was slightly stunned: "These? Give it all to me? ”

"Well, here you go, but I'm going to get you ten eggs in exchange."

"Yes!"

Li Qiang's daughter-in-law handed Song He'er the happy bird egg, and then left with the clay pot.

Qin Xiaoniang gave some of the eggs to Chunrao, and gave the rest to Sister Nian and Brother Huan.

"Little lady, you are still breastfeeding, crayfish can't eat more, you can also eat a few of these bird eggs." Chun Rao handed over three bird eggs.

"I just ate a chicken leg, I'm not hungry, you always give me good things, don't starve yourself, eat quickly."

After several shirks, Chun Rao ate the bird's egg.

After dinner, everyone began to throw straw mats and prepare for rest.

In order to prevent the attack of wild beasts, Song He'er specially raised torches next to people resting, and where there was fire, the beasts did not dare to approach.

Qin Xiaoniang looked at the people who were resting under the big tree not far away, and turned her head to discuss with Zhang Xiu'e: "It's so dark, and I don't know if there are wild cats and dogs hurting people at night, our straw mats are all spread out, and there is also a place to be idle, so call them over?" ”

Zhang Xiu'e thought about it carefully and nodded: "That's right, after all, there are more people who are united, He'er has no opinion, right?"

"If you don't have an opinion, I don't have an opinion."

"Alright, I'll call them."

Zhang Xiu'e is a warm-hearted person, and Li Qiang's daughter-in-law did not shirk it, after all, everyone is safe when they sleep together.

Late at night, people fall asleep.

Through the faint light, Song He'er suddenly heard the sound of rustling in the grass not far away......
