I met Aunt Zhao by chance
As soon as the hour arrived the next day, Su Yuanyuan opened his eyes.
In the past, she has always maintained a good habit of getting up on time at six o'clock, so much so that it is now deeply engraved in her biological clock.
Before going to bed yesterday, she had already thought about it carefully, Fly Mountain is located on the border of Qi State, although it is remote, but it also has an advantage, she will not attract much attention when she uses modern knowledge in this place.
Su Yuanyuan first lit the cauldron on fire, warmed the water and waited for Jiang Wenzheng's father and son to get up and wash.
There was still a little flour left in the cabbage buns yesterday, and Su Yuanyuan added some water to it and made a thin batter.
When the water boiled, Su Yuanyuan poured some of the hot water into the wooden barrel, and poured the rest of the batter into it to make pimple soup.
Rural people like to grow some green vegetables in their small yards, and Su Yuanyuan picked up some coriander and threw it into the soup to taste.
When the soup was cooked, Su Yuanyuan took a spoon and tasted it, smacking his lips.
"Not bad."
At this time, it was almost dawn, and she heard movement in the main house, and estimated that Jiang Wenzheng should also get up.
Remembering the way he went to take a bath in the dark last night, Su Yuanyuan thought about it and knocked on the door first.
"Wen Zheng, I'm in?"
The man in the room hummed lukewarmly, and Su Yuanyuan pushed the door open and went in.
Xiao Dou Ding was still sleeping soundly, his two little hands were clenched into fists, the temperature in the room had risen, and Xiao Dou Ding's face was hot and red.
Su Yuanyuan couldn't bear to wake up the sweet little bean that was sleeping, and patted Jiang Zhiyi's shoulder softly, and lowered his voice, "Ah Yi, it's time to get up, otherwise the meat bun will be cold~"
Xiao Douding slowly opened his eyes, he had just woken up and had not yet recovered his senses, although his eyes looked around in confusion, his little arms firmly encircled Su Yuanyuan's neck.
Su Yuanyuan mixed some hot water in the wooden basin and tested the temperature before washing Ah Yi.
"Mother, I smell the smell of meat buns."
Xiao Douding stretched his neck to look at the table, Su Yuanyuan smiled and joked to him, "Are you a cat's nose?" ”
"It's the beginning of today."
Jiang Wenzheng suddenly said this, and Su Yuanyuan didn't understand what he meant for a while.
And Jiang Wenzheng, he thought that Su Yuanyuan deliberately pretended not to understand and wanted to avoid this time.
"There is still a month to go before the New Year, I should go to the town to buy some New Year's goods to prepare, the road is far away, I am unable to move, I can only trouble you."
What Jiang Wenzheng said was really polite, it didn't look like a conversation between the couple at all, but more like talking to a stranger.
Su Yuanyuan was afraid that he would think that he would not change his life, and then talk about the book and leave the book, so he had to hurry down.
"Don't worry, I'll go after dinner."
Hearing this, Jiang Wenzheng's frowning brows were relieved a little, Su Yuanyuan felt a little difficult in his heart, sure enough, freezing three feet was not a day's cold, and if he wanted to alleviate the relationship between the two of them, he had to think about it in the long run.
"I'm going too!"
Just finished drinking the pimple soup, and Xiao Douding, who was still licking the bowl, hurriedly interjected.
He looked at Su Yuanyuan with an urgent look, as if he was afraid that Su Yuanyuan would disappear in the next second.
Su Yuanyuan looked at Jiang Wenzheng, and the man's deep eyes would only gently look at a pool of spring water when he looked at Xiao Douding.
"I'll take care of Ayi."
In this way, Su Yuanyuan carried a big basket on his back, Jiang Zhiyi carried a small basket on his back, and the mother and son walked on the road to the town with a smile and a smile.
There are two roads to the town, one is a big road and one is a small road, although the mainland is flat, but the distance is long, it takes two hours to walk, and the small road is close, but it is rugged and difficult.
Su Yuanyuan walked the road without the slightest hesitation, she had all her family's belongings on her, whether the family could survive this cold winter depended on her purchase this time, what if she was robbed by someone on the path.
Before leaving, Jiang Wenzheng also specially made a shopping list for her, lest his troubled daughter-in-law spend all the money.
Halfway through the journey, Ah Yi's two little short legs were no longer moving.
"Mother, Ah Yiti, let's rest."
Su Yuanyuan looked at Xiao Douding full of big men, tired and out of breath, and felt very distressed.
She found a stone for Ah Yi to sit on, and the two of them were in a hurry, and she didn't have time to prepare food and water.
"Is it okay for Ah Yi to insist on it? When you enter the city, your mother will invite you to drink fresh bean juice. ”
Ah Yi frowned slightly, and asked rhetorically, "What is fresh bean juice?" ”
"It's just grinding beans into juice."
Thinking about it, most of the food eaten by ancient people was a simple list, how could they come up with so many tricks like modern people, Su Yuanyuan seemed to be able to think of what she was going to buy this time.
"Mother! It's an ox cart! Let's take a bullock cart! ”
Su Yuanyuan looked at the place where Jiang Zhiyi's little finger was pointing, only minus an old ox, and slowly pulled a wooden cart towards them.
When they got closer, Su Yuanyuan saw the peasant woman who was wrapped like a dumpling on a wooden cart.
The peasant woman who was driving the car was older, and she looked like she was in her fifties, and she greeted her brightly after seeing Su Yuanyuan.
"Yo, Wen Zheng's family? You guys go to town too? ”
Su Yuanyuan was like a child who had never walked through relatives when he was a child, and he didn't know which seven aunts and eight aunts this was, so he had to pin his hopes on Xiao Douding in his arms.
"This is Grandma Zhao next door, my mother calls her Aunt Zhao on weekdays, Aunt Zhao is very good, and she secretly stuffed sugar packets for Ah Yi."
The old lady's gray hair fluttered in the wind, but her round cheeks were full of smiles, and she looked like a kind old lady.
Originally, it was already commonplace for the original protagonist to scold Ah Yi, although this Aunt Zhao also felt sorry for Ah Yi, but it was not good to meddle in other people's family affairs casually, so she could only take more care of Ah Yi on weekdays.
"Aunt Zhao, isn't it almost the New Year, Wen Zheng asked me to go to the town to do some New Year's goods."
Aunt Zhao spoke kindly to Su Yuanyuan, and did not despise her because of the hurtful things that the original owner did, and when she saw Ah Yilei's little face flushed, she took the initiative to invite them to sit in her ox cart.
Su Yuanyuan looked at the road in the distance, looked at the tired child again, and took out two copper plates from his small cloth bag and stuffed them into Aunt Zhao'er's hands.
"What are you doing in the Wen Zheng family, what are you doing along the way."
Seeing that Aunt Zhao was still polite to herself, Su Yuanyuan patted her hand to reassure her and gave her a look.
Aunt Zhao and Uncle Zhao are old, and they can no longer do some heavy work in the field like when they were young, fortunately, there is an old scalper who retired with them at home, and the old couple will pull the village people to the town in the early month of each month, as a road fee, the hitchhiker will give them two pennies, if Su Yuanyuan's road fee is not charged, I am afraid that the hitchhiker will be unbalanced in his heart, and Aunt Zhao's future business will be difficult to do.
As the two greeted each other, the women who had been hunkering in the back seat all stuck their heads out to look.
