Chapter 6 Let's go together

Song Shu made two large plates of braised chicken nuggets this time, because she was worried that the pheasant was too big and the meat would be firewood, so she put some water and boiled for some more time, and she poked it with chopsticks before coming out of the pot and found that the meat quality was not bad. She didn't chop the pheasant leg when she handled it, so there was a long cut of bone on the plate.

A few minutes before the pot came out, Song Shu also mixed cornmeal and flour and pasted a circle of cakes around the pot.

When the dish was served, Yan took a deep breath: "Shu Niang's craftsmanship is really much better than mine." ”

Song Shu smiled, "That mother will eat more." As he spoke, he picked out two large chicken legs with chopsticks, gave them to Yan Shi first, and put the other into Yanqing's bowl.

"There are only two legs, so let's eat more meat." Song Shu quipped.

When Pei Xuan heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Yan Qing's eyes widened, the chicken leg in the bowl was so big that he couldn't put it down, and tentatively lowered his head and leaned over to take a bite, the rich flavor of the gravy made his eyes light up.

At the dinner table, Song Shu also tasted the taste of meat for a long time, the aroma of chicken meat spread between the lips and teeth, the meat was tight and greasy without feeling dry, and with the pot cake full of gravy, it made people even more appetizing.

"That's right, mother," after eating, Song Shu went to find Yan, "I want to go to the town in the past two days, and many households in the kitchen are running out, okay?" ”

"What's wrong with that?" Yan patted the futon and motioned for Song Shu to sit down beside her.

"Good boy, you've worked hard for the past two days," Yan patted Song Shu's hand.

Yan is a very amiable person, and with his kind appearance and soft voice, it is easy for people to get close, which is why Song Shu can call her "mother" directly, and it feels very suitable.

Now in this posture, Song Shu felt that Yan had something to say to her.

Sure enough, after Yan let go of Song Shu's hand, he took out a small box from the cabinet next to the bed.

The box was black all over, about the size of a gassho, but there was no lock on the lock, Yan opened it directly, and inside it was a jade jade bracelet.

"This bracelet is also a dowry when I got married, and it is also reserved for my daughter-in-law, and it stands to reason that it should be given to you on the day of marriage, but ...... "The farce on the day of marriage, don't mention it."

Yan took out the bracelet, took Song Shu's hand, and slowly put it on.

"You are young, and you have just lost your father, it is not easy to do what you are now, my mother is not saying that I want to force you and Ke'an to be so affectionate, I just hope that the two of you can get along with each other gently and let it be......"

The implication is that I hope that the relationship between the two can be slowly cultivated.

After a serious conversation, Song Shu was given out by Yan with a jade bracelet and twenty taels of silver.

When Song Shu got married, the bride price given by the Pei family was eighteen taels of silver, and the Song butcher because he died soon, so in addition to leaving his coffin board money, the rest was also made up of thirty taels for Song Shu as a dowry, and the bride price also allowed Song Shu to bring back to the Pei family.

Now coupled with the twenty taels of silver that Yan got back for the buyer, Song Shu suddenly felt that she had become a rich woman overnight.

But......

Weighing the heavy silver in his hand, and thinking of the shabby courtyard inside and outside, he felt more and more unfathomable that the Pei family was unfathomable. What kind of farmer can sell it for twenty taels of silver?

A good night's sleep.

When she woke up the next day, Song Shu originally wanted Yan to go to the town with her, but Yan used the excuse that she still had to take care of Yanqing, so she couldn't be empty, so she asked Song Shu to go with Pei Xuan.

Once born and twice cooked, Song Shu didn't refuse, Pei Xuan had a lot of strength, and he just wanted him to help him get things.

Xiao Songzhuang belongs to Hexia Town, the distance from the town is very close, and the walk is less than half an hour, the two set off early, and when they arrived at the market in the town, Song Shu was a little sweaty.

Pei Xuan had a water bladder hanging from his waist, Song Shu unscrewed it and poured it, and began to look around.

The market here is a small set every even number, a large set every eight, today is the eighth day of the first month, the shops in the market opened very early, and there are many small vendors on the roadside who came early, wanting to seize a good position, and now they are still cleaning up the goods on the stalls, and the flow of people is not much.

"Dumplings—just out of the pot—" A hearty shout sounded, it was a restaurant located on the corner of the street, Song Shu looked over, the store was a sturdy woman, her skin was white, and her cheeks were red from the heat.

"Little lady, come to a bowl of dumplings?"

Song Shu was still a little curious about what kind of food this dumpling was, and pulled Pei Xuan's sleeve to take a look, this dumpling was more like a "noodle soup", the cauldron was boiling with hot steam, and there were many pieces of noodles floating up and down, as well as green vegetables and black fungus vegetables, with an attractive aroma.

"Little lady and your husband come to have a bowl?" The woman laughed.

"Two bowls!" Song Shu pointed to the side dishes that could be added on the side, "This beef and eggs can be added, right?" Give me that bowl of eggs, and my father-in-law's bowl of beef. ”

"Hey!" The woman smiled, "The relationship between the little lady and the husband is so good!" ”

The little couple who were praised for their good feelings found a table and sat down, and the woman here brought the dumplings up, "Eat while it's hot!" ”

Song Shu couldn't wait to taste it.

The noodles in this dumpling are soaked in cold water before being put into the pot, so they are a little creamy in the mouth, and although they are not as chewy as the noodles, they have a soft texture and a fresh soup base, a bit like mushroom soup.

"It's not bad, this soup is delicious, you can taste it."

Pei Xuan has a high degree of acceptance of food, when Song Shu was not married before, he also ate the boiled dishes that Yan had made for so long, but he tasted Song Shu's craftsmanship in the past two days, but it was rare to have an evaluation of the food.

"Okay, but ...... Not as good as your craft. Pei Xuan commented pertinently.

Song Shu suddenly smiled, holding the soup bowl with crooked eyebrows.

It's really a pleasure to be praised by others, especially with the blessing of Pei Xuan and the cold-faced male attributes, which adds three points of authenticity to this praise.

I was about to say something more, but I was attracted by a table of people diagonally opposite, the two tables were not far away, and I could faintly hear their conversation in a low voice:

“…… This is not the same as saying good, not saying that it is good for ten taels of silver......"

"Anyway, it's just three or two now, can you do it? If you don't do it, I'll find someone else—"

The man's face was full of sorrow, and there was some resentment between his eyebrows, but he still took a purse from the other person's hand and stuffed it into his arms.

The other party left quickly, but the man was not in a hurry to leave, and drank all the dumplings in the bowl before getting up and leaving.

Pei Xuan also glanced at it, didn't say anything, reached out and tapped the table twice, "Drink quickly, it will be cold later." ”
