Song female man

Upstairs, Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Liu were also woken up by the movement of Xie's house next door in the middle of the night. They were tossing and turning on the bed, and they both heard the sound of each other turning over. Mrs. Liu asked Mrs. Qi in the dark if he also woke up.

Zi said yes.

Mrs. Liu sighed the same as Shunniang thought, saying that everything in this house is good, except that the pig squawking in the middle of the night is annoying.

Mrs. Qi laughed softly: "The Xie family can't keep slaughtering pigs until dawn, that's why we are not used to moving here, and we will get used to it after a long time."

Liu groaned, saying that at most she didn't sleep well at night, and it was the same to catch up on sleep at noon.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said some miscellaneous homely things, and after more than an hour, the Xie family next door stopped killing pigs, and the two fell asleep again.

After sleeping, she slept until dawn, and woke up later than usual, but Kecheng and Huier woke up early, and they were playing around.

Downstairs, Shunniang woke up early and opened the door. She knew that the mason Xie's family had hired was coming to build the kitchen and firewood shed today. They came with a few apprentices, and they drove an ox cart, which contained materials such as adobe, bamboo, wood and thatch for building houses.

They came in to say hello to Shunniang, and Shunniang took them to the backyard to tell them where to build something, how much area they wanted, and so on, and they started to do it after listening.

Simple houses like firewood houses and kitchens were built very quickly. These few people worked together and built the wall between the kitchen and Xie's courtyard and Xi's courtyard before noon.

Then they went to Xie's house next door to have lunch, Xie's house burned some pigs to entertain them, and provided some thin wine for a few cents a catty, these craftsmen came back to continue working after eating.

Shunniang has been greeting these people back and forth, bringing them tea and things.

Xie Erniang was also sent by her mother to bring tea, the tea was delivered in a big tea bottle, every time it was delivered, it was Mrs Liu and Mrs Qi who picked it up, and then handed it over to Shunniang, who mentioned that she would give it later The craftsmen drank it only once, when Erniang Xie came over with a bottle of boiled tea, while Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Qi were upstairs coaxing the children to sleep, and Mrs. Shun went to pick them up.

For some reason, Shunniang's hand touched Xie Erniang's, and Xie Erniang withdrew her hand as if scalded by boiling water. If it wasn't for Shunniang's quick eyesight and quick hands, the tea bottle would have fallen to the ground.

Shunniang couldn't help but glance at her, and seeing the weird expression on her face, she asked her what was wrong.

Xie Erniang glared at Shunniang with a blushing face, and ran away as soon as she twisted her body, making Shunniang look confused, not knowing what was going on with that quirky little pepper.

Later, Mrs. Wu asked her to come over to deliver tea to Xi's family, but Xie Erniang said nothing, and Mrs. Wu scolded her for a while, so she had to ask her clerk Hei Wa to put aside the work at hand and send it to Xie instead of her daughter. Here comes the tea.

In the evening, the Xie family invited the Xie family to rent a small yard to live in. The kitchen, firewood room and large stove have been built here. They collected the tools and went to the Xie family next door to have dinner. After receiving their wages, they went home separately. .

Xie's family also sent some leftovers from entertaining these artisans to Xi's family, so that they could eat as soon as they could. After drying the stove for a day, they could start cooking tomorrow night.

After finishing dinner, Shunniang walked around the small yard behind with her mother, sister-in-law and two children. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the whole small yard exuded a new and warm feeling. Seeing everything in front of her, Shunniang felt that Very comfortable and comfortable.

In the past, there was only a fence between this small courtyard and the big courtyard of the Xie family next door. The fence wall was demolished, and now an earthen wall has been erected. There is also a door on the earthen wall, and the door is bolted on the side of Xie's house.Seeing this, Mrs. Qi couldn't help but praise Mrs. Wu for his thoughtfulness, saying that it was necessary for Mrs. Wu to let the craftsmen build the wall. "They are all old and weak, women and children. Of course, it is safer to have a wall to avoid accidents.In addition, Xie Erniang at the Xie family is a married woman who has not yet reached the level of the family, and Xijia Erlang is an unmarried "man". In order to avoid suspicion, such a wall should be built.The third is to open the door on the wall, and the door bolt is on the side of Xi’s family. It can be seen that the Xie family completely believes in Xie’s family, otherwise the door bolt should be on the side of Xie’s family. Say it, people open the door to pass.

Not to mention, if Mrs. Liu didn't say these words, neither Shunniang nor Mrs. Qi could think of the reason why Mrs. Wu next door asked her to build the wall.

Together they went to see the simple bean sprouts house that Shunniang had built by craftsmen under the west wall. The bean sprouts that were grown a few days ago could be harvested tomorrow.

Shun Niang said: "Tomorrow, I will send some of these seeds to Xie's family next door, and let's use the rest to cook and entertain people. Isn't the stove going to be started tomorrow? I saw that tomorrow is also an auspicious day, so we will have two tables of banquets. Please thank your family and the Lu family for coming to dinner. After inviting guests, we can be regarded as officially settled here, and then we can live our lives wholeheartedly."

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Qi both said hello, so they planned together what to cook and what to buy for the treat tomorrow.

Shun Niang said: "Tomorrow I will go fishing in the morning, catch a few fish to entertain guests, and then chop a load of firewood, and then I will invite people to come over for dinner tomorrow afternoon, mother Tomorrow, I will go buy some fruits and vegetables and come back, I must buy fresh and good-looking ones, by the way, add a few catties of good wine, at least twenty yuan a catty, my sister-in-law will take care of the house and take care of the children."

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Qi nodded, they discussed it properly, washed up and went back to rest. Ever since they moved to the Xie's butcher's shop, Shun Niang and his old lady and sister-in-law were woken up by the pigs next door in the middle of the night, so they decided to go to bed early at night. By the time the pigs next door screamed around Choushi in the middle of the night, they were almost asleep.

The next day was a fine day, and Shun Niang was woken up by the pig screaming next door, so she got up to mix fish food, and it was just right for her to go out.

This day, I caught two big fish and three small fish. Shunniang felt that the fish for today's treat was enough, so she went to chop a load of firewood and went home with the fish.

After breakfast, she went to pick the bean sprouts first, and then asked her sister-in-law to take a few catties in a basket and send them to Xie's next door.

When Wu saw these mung bean sprouts, she felt fresh, so she asked Qi whether the mung bean sprouts were the same as the soybean sprouts, put them in noodles, or boil them in water, and eat them with sauce.

Mrs. Qi shook her head in embarrassment, saying that the seeds of these mung bean hairs were made by her family's second uncle, and they only came out before cooking, so she didn't know that the seeds of mung bean hair were just like soybeans. The seeds of hair are eaten like that.

Mrs. Wu took the basket of bean sprouts, and on a whim, she took her daughter and Mrs. Qi to Xi's next door. Seeing Shunniang rolling up her sleeves and killing fish in the kitchen, she was so ridiculously clumsy that she couldn't help laughing at whether she had never done it before. Do the work in the kitchen.

Shunniang laughed and said, "It's just that I'm not very familiar with killing fish, but it's still good at cooking."

Mrs. Wu said "Oh", and then asked Shunniang again: "Xi Erlang, tell me how you cook the seeds made from mung beans so that they are delicious, but they are eaten in the same way as the seeds made from soybeans. .”

Shunniang stopped what she was doing and told Mrs. Wu that the mung bean sprouts are delicious when fried. All you need to do is add some ginger, throw in a few prickly ash peppers, stir fry a few times on high heat, and add some salt. Ready to plate and serve.Of course, this is the simplest method, and there are other ways to eat it, such as dipping sauce, and spicy mustard greens are also delicious.

Wu couldn't help asking Shunniang curiously, where did she know how to eat this mung bean hair seed.

Shunniang said that she met an old Taoist from Sichuan one day, and she invited him to drink a bowl of tea, and he told herself.

Mrs. Wu understood it, and said that the Shu people would eat it. No wonder that in Bianliang City, apart from the restaurants with northern and southern flavors, the rest are Sichuan-style restaurants.

Shunniang laughed, and said to herself, if there were chili peppers, it would taste even better if they were left to stir-fry. It's a pity that chili peppers haven't been introduced to Da Song yet.Thinking of things like peppers, Shunniang couldn't help but glanced at Little Peppers standing next to Mrs. Wu, and saw that she was listening with great interest with her big round eyes open.

Then Shunniang said that she would invite Xie’s family to come over for dinner in the evening, and that she would cook some fresh and unique dishes for them. Mrs. Wu agreed with a smile, and asked Shunniang if she invited someone else, Shunniang said : "Brother Lu's family is also invited. I think it's thanks to Brother Lu that he mentioned such a place for us to move. Otherwise, we don't know where we are right now."

Wu Shi: "Well, when will the banquet start, so that I can bring my officials and children over here."

Shun Niang said that the meeting will start around the end of Shenshi (five o'clock in the afternoon).

Mrs. Wu said that their family must be there on time, chatted with Mrs. Qi, and took Xie Erniang home.

As soon as she got home, she told Xie Yi about the invitation to dinner at Xi's next door, and praised Xi Erlang, saying that he is not only good at work, but also good at kitchen work. The top leader inside and outside is really diligent.

Xie Yi glanced at her, and said: "Who said it, don't you have to wait and see, you are full of praise so quickly."

Mrs. Wu snorted, smiled and said: "Isn't this just watching? By the way, I'll go over earlier in the afternoon to take a look at that Kijiro. He is bragging, saying that he is also good at cooking. I want to see if he can cook." Come out with some delicious dishes. Also, he told me how to cook the mung bean sprouts so delicious, I will fry a plate according to the method he said at noon to eat..."

After Mrs. Wu took Xie Erniang away, Mrs. Qi hurriedly rolled up her sleeves to snatch the knife from Shunniang's hand: "Uncle, you rest, let me do the job of killing fish, you won't kill it."

Shunniang smiled slightly, holding the kitchen knife tightly, Qi Shi said: "It's because I'm not familiar with it, so I have to do more, you just watch from the side. I'm not Xijia Erlang, I can't even kill fish like that." What do you mean, in the future, I will kill chickens and ducks, so you and mother can just rest."

Hearing what she said, Mrs. Qi also obeyed her, watching Shunniang killing the fish with a smile on the side, and pointing her a few words from time to time, how to remove the scales of the fish, and how to use a knife on the fish, so that it will explode in a while Fish are good looking.

After a while, Mrs. Liu came back from grocery shopping, carrying a jar of wine and a large basket of things, such as roast goose, roast chicken, duck in sauce, fresh pork, and many vegetables and fruits, all bought according to Shunniang's request.Shunniang finished killing the fish, washed her hands, and said that she would go to Lu's house, and invite them to Xi's house for dinner at night, and then come back to prepare the noodles with her mother and sister-in-law.
