Thirty Mulberry

Pure spy.Xiaochun sometimes talks in a daze, but I have been with her for so long, I can guarantee that she is definitely not a spy. "

Saito was silent for a moment, and replied: "Okay."

After Okita left, Saito sighed. The so-called mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind. He said to a certain place: "Deputy chief, come out!"

Shannan stepped out from a narrow road, and only said four words: "A beauty is a disaster."

Japan is not only a meal-sharing system, but the amount of food per serving is still very small.Eating is like doing landscape painting, and is good at leaving blank space. There are three or four bowls on the small dining table, and only one dish is ordered at the bottom of the bowl, like an embossed pattern on the bottom of the bowl.Resources were scarce, and the emperor issued a "meat ban", and all home-cooked and tricky meat were not allowed to be imported.The common people couldn't even afford rice, so they had two meals a day, radish and millet.A family like Harudai’s is just tofu and radishes, pickled side dishes, miso soup, occasionally two small fish, and rice every three days.

Even though Xiaochun has a super adaptability, he can't stand being cut into oil and water like this every day.I was not used to Japanese food, and the portion is so small.Xiaochun was originally thin, but now she is skinny, like a walking skeleton.It's just that her body is wrapped in the big sleeves of a loose coat, and just looking at her pretty face, she thought she was a pampered young lady.

If you don't eat well, the first thing you suffer is sleep, tossing and turning every night to listen to the "drum set" in your stomach.When I woke up in the morning, my eyes were black and my feet were sloppy, and I went to the river to wash with a basin of clothes.

Xiaochun was groggy, with sour water coming out of his mouth.Seeing a person's shadow approaching from a distance, the shape of the person's shadow changed when he looked at it. Why is the neck not a head, but a white and tender fish meatball?These days, the fish balls have become fine and ran out into the world?Regardless, it's better to bite first.

Xiaochun threw herself into Yuwanjing's arms, put her arms around his neck, and took a bite on his fleshy face.Hey, why can't you bite it off?Switch to the other side and bite again.

"Ah—ah—it hurts, it hurts!" A short and loud cry.

Xiaochun rubbed her eyes to see, how did Yuwanjing become Okita Souji?Okita covered his face, grinning in pain.

Xiaochun pushed him away, as if he had found someone who could let go of acting coquettishly, he no longer cared about his image, rolled on the ground twice, broke down and cried, "Chongtian, go and steal me a cock!"

At night in the camp, Okita came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, put on the clean sleeves again, and inserted Kaga Kiyomitsu at his waist.

"You want to go out so late?" Yongcang Shinpachi approached Okita, and said meanly, "Let me see, who bit the cute little face of our cute little head? I'll chop it off." he."

"How dare you!" Okita said, "The cat scratched it."

"Which cat?" Yong Cang smacked his arms, "I'll catch it for you a hundred times a hundred times."

With a sound of "choking", Okita held the handle of the knife with his thumb and lifted it upwards.

"Xiao Zongsi, please speak up if you have something to say!" Yongcang leaned against the wall and moved out step by step.

"Wait," Okita stopped Yongcang, "is there any farmhouse nearby that raises chickens?"

Chapter 6

The moon is dark and the wind is high tonight, which is a good time to sneak around.The village where the common people gathered was quiet, and occasionally there were a few short, rhythmic dog barks, which seemed to be rattlesnake.Souji Okita nimbly jumped over the low fence and kneeled down on one knee beautifully.In the small shed, a group of skinny chickens huddled together and took a nap, and a strong and warm smell of plague wafted out.Okita pulled out one nearby.

The chicken was sleeping soundly, but was suddenly "strangled by the throat of fate", rolled its eyes, and let out a long hiss.Okita trembled in fright, and hurried to pinch its sharp beak.There were rustling sounds and low voices in the room.

Chong Tian's body was ahead of his heart, he raised the knife and chopped off the chicken's head, then hurriedly dropped a hundred coins, with a light tap of his toe, he climbed out of the fence.

Okita handed a headless chicken to Xiaochun.Xiaochun's eyes almost popped out, and he said, "You don't really want to steal chickens, do you? I was so hungry that day that I broke down to gibberish...My fault, it's all my fault!"

Chongtian thought to himself: "Why don't you praise me, praise me quickly!" But he said: "Sneaking chickens and dogs is not what a gentleman does. I bought it for a hundred yuan."

"A headless chicken for a hundred pennies? And it's a hundred pennies..." Xiaochun looked up to the sky and sighed, "A hundred pennies can buy ten chickens. You prodigal bastard."

No matter what you scold, the chicken still has to be eaten.Xiaochun boiled a pot of boiling water, plucked the hair, washed it white and tender, and then opened the belly and took out the internal organs.Xiaochun not only loves to eat, but also cooks. He scours out all the condiments that can be found, and cooks them in a simple small pot to create the momentum of "Manchu Banquet".

Not daring to make too much noise, Okita, Xiaochun and Harudai crouched in front of the small table in the kitchen.The cooked chicken looks rich in oily red sauce, but it smells delicious.Xiaochun gave each of two chicken thighs to Okita and Haruyo, and said: "Try the craftsmanship of my chef Zhang Xuechun. I give myself 120 points out of [-] points. I am not afraid that I will be proud. Because although I am proud, I have never won't fall behind."

Okita and Haruyo each took a bite of the chicken leg, their eyes glowing green.Chun Dai took a breath and said, "Speaking of which, I was completely led by Xiao Chun, and even broke the precept." After speaking, he took another bite.

"How is it? Little brother." Xiaochun asked Okita.

Okita couldn't move his mouth to speak, he just nodded vigorously.

A chicken eats like a tea party.Xiaochun tapped his finger on the table, shaking his head and shaking his head: "When it comes to eating, there are more than a hundred varieties of this tofu alone. There is a "Jiang Shilang Tofu" recorded in the famous food book "Suiyuan Food List" by the big foodie Yuan Mei. First, put the tofu on both sides Peel off the skin, cut each piece into 120 slices, dry the tofu with lard and boil it with clear smoke, sprinkle with a pinch of salt, turn over, use a teacup of sweet wine, 120 dried shrimps. Roll the dried shrimps first Soak for an hour, add a small cup of autumn oil, roll it again, add a pinch of sugar, roll it again, use shallots half an inch long, [-] segments, and cook slowly. Yuan Mei not only advocates eating tofu, but also loves it Eat tofu. Once again, a celebrity in Hangzhou invited him to eat tofu. This tofu was cooked with hibiscus flowers. The tofu was as white as snow, and the flower color was as bright as clouds.

Okita and Haruyo said in unison: "Don't say any more."

Xiaochun put his arms around Okita's shoulders and said: "Little brother, let's hang out with sister from now on! Follow sister to hang out and eat delicious food."

In the Shinsengumi, Okita is the team leader and assistant assistant of the first team. He has a certain amount of Lumi every day, and his annual salary is about 300 million yen, which is equivalent to about 74 yuan.Properly "Edo Gao Fushuai".

He lives in the village and eats "big pot rice", which can save a lot of Lumi every day.No matter it is windy or rainy, I get up before dawn every day, and quietly go to the common people's farmhouse or farm to buy pigs, chickens, ducks and other poultry.The emperor's "meat ban" gradually lost its effectiveness as the power became thinner, but the shogun still abided by it, causing the people to eat meat only surreptitiously.

After buying, he took Lumi and poultry across most of Kyoto and sent them to Ishida Medical Center for his little fairy.Then go to work across a small half of Kyoto.

Japanese sugar was imported from the Netherlands and China by monks, and it was so expensive that common people couldn't afford it.Chongtian is also bought in cans, because Xiaochun has dysmenorrhea during menstruation, and brown sugar warm palace is folk wisdom.

Okita often stays to eat with Xiaochun and the others, and sometimes stays in the hospital.

The weather is getting hotter and summer is approaching quietly.Xiao Chun was lying in the tub, soaking until her body was soft.She sang loudly: "Big swords cut off the devils' heads. Brothers who are armed across the country, the day of the war of resistance has come, the day of the war of resistance has come..." She felt inappropriate while singing, so she changed a song: "Good mountains, good water, good place, all the roads are spacious, good wine when friends come, if the jackal comes, there are people who will welcome it..."

Across the wall, Okita shouted in from the small wooden window on the wall: "Is the water temperature cold or hot?"

"Just right. Thank you brother Zongsi!" Xiaochun replied.

Chong Tian threw a few more sticks of firewood into the belly of the stove, and the flames sprang up with a "flutter", burning even more vigorously.Not long after, Xiaochun's scream came from the bathroom: "It's scalding! It's scalding!"

"Brother Zongsi." Okita continued to fill the stove with firewood.

"Ah——it's hot! It's so hot!" Xiaochun got up from the bathtub, slipped on his feet, and fell in again, "Brother, brother Zongsi, brother Zongsi."

Okita patted the ashes on his hands triumphantly.

Wearing her strawberry lace pajamas, Xiaochun came out of the bathroom with a cotton towel wrapped around her head, and said, "Honey, go wash it! I'll boil the water for you."

Chong Tian didn't fall for her tricks, and said: "Don't bother little fairy, I'll go back to the village to wash in the evening."

Chun Dai went on a doctor's visit and was not in the hospital.The sun is gradually setting, and it is already evening, and the sunset glow in the sky is like an abstract painting made by an overturned paint plate.The courtyard is shrouded in the slight heat of early summer, and the flowers that lasted into summer are steamed with a burst of fragrance.

Okita and Xiaochun sat on the floor under the porch, watching the bamboo tube of the "bird scare device" turn over after being filled with water, and splash it on the stones.This is a bit of coolness stolen from under the nose of early summer.

Okita asked: "What do you need to prepare for getting married in your hometown?"

Xiaochun thought for a while: "It's nothing special. According to the ancient law, men marry women. It's just that in my hometown, housing is the top priority. It used to be food, clothing, housing and transportation, but now it is food, clothing and transportation. Men don't have houses, and now they don't have money. It's very difficult. It’s hard to find a wife. Especially in remote rural areas. School district housing is even more expensive. Without school district housing, it is difficult for children to go to a good school. Speaking of it, ordinary people in every era have different hardships.”

"Why do you think so much, you don't need to buy a house in the school district
