Chapter 99 Gnocchi Soup

The fire in the kitchen was also out by this time, and the last wisps of white smoke rose from the chimney.

The man walking in front was holding a pot in his hand, and the man following behind was holding a few bowls and chopsticks in his hand, and came out after his brother.

The sun outside was too strong, so they put their lunch in the main room to eat. At noon, the man cooked a big pot of noodle soup, which looked much better than the pot of boiled noodle soup in the morning.

"Mum, brother, it's time for dinner. My brother and I made noodle soup." Zhao Hu put the bowls and chopsticks on the table, picked up a spoon to help everyone eat, each person got a bowl of noodle soup.

They used bacon and shrimp to cook the soup base, and put Chinese cabbage in it. There was a big bowl. There were red, green and white in the bowl. The red ones were bacon, the green ones were vegetables, and the white ones were vegetables. Gnocchi.

Such a bowl of gnocchi looks pretty good, but I don't know how it tastes.

Zhao Amu came over to take a look, saw a pot of noodle soup, and praised: "It's not bad, what you two brothers did, there is progress, there is progress."

Josh also brought his children to have lunch. Seeing the rich ingredients in the bowl, he raised his eyebrows in his heart. He raised his head and glanced at the man across from him. There was a little praise in his eyes. This bowl of noodles is really big. It is much better than the batter in the morning.It happened that the man was also looking at them, and their eyes met. He smiled at the man and said, "Sit down and eat, too."

"Hey, brother, why don't you sit down too." Zhao Hu thought his brother was calling him, pulled a chair over to sit down, and pulled his brother again, "Brother, sit down too."

Zhao He glanced at the brother who didn't wink at all, and then sat down in the seat vacated for him.

The seat close to Fu Lang has been taken away by his brother who has no winks. He can only sit on the left hand side of the child, and his Fu Lang is on the right hand side of the child. There is a child's seat between him and Fu Lang. .

Zhao Hu didn't notice this at all. Isn't that how they usually sit?

Today, their son was not as active in eating as usual. He dozed off since he got on the table, holding the spoon in his hand for a long time without moving, and he stopped chewing with food in his mouth.Seeing their son who was about to fall asleep, Josh asked a little dumbfounded: "Do you want to eat Nian Nian? Let's stop eating if we're sleepy and go back to sleep."

As soon as he heard him speak, the child opened his closed eyes again, chewed his mouth a few times, and swallowed the food in his mouth.

"Ah, open your mouth~" Seeing that the child was so sleepy and insisted on eating, Josh couldn't help but laugh, and finally he had no choice but to take the spoon from the child's hand and feed it to the child.Zhiyi Political Calendar

Even if the child's willpower to eat is so strong, he has not finished eating a small bowl of gnocchi, the child's eyes have been closed, the food in his mouth has not been swallowed, and he has fallen asleep.

"It seems that he really fell asleep this time." Josh called out to the child, and seeing that the child hadn't opened his eyes, he knew that the child was asleep.

He also picked out the food in the child's mouth with his hands, and he was about to take the child back to sleep in the house, "Forget it, let's not give him food, he is asleep now. I will take him back to the house to sleep Come on, eat first."

Just when he was about to pick up the child, the other hand held the child firmly one step ahead of him. The man stood up and said to Fu Lang on the other side: "I'll carry him to sleep, and you continue to eat."

After thinking about it, Josh followed the man and the child into the house. When the man put the child on the bed, he helped take off the child's shoes, brought the child's bath towel, and fetched water for him. The child wiped his face, hands and feet before covering the child's stomach with a thin quilt.

When he was doing these things for the child, the man next to him didn't go out, and just stood here and looked at him the whole time.

"Why don't you go out?" He asked, looking up at the man next to him.

"Waiting for you together." Zhao He said.

Josh froze for a moment, he was not used to the usual taciturn man suddenly became so direct and eloquent.

Hanging the wet face towel on the shelf, turning back to meet the man's eyes, he saw undisguised tenderness for him in the man's eyes.Suddenly he laughed, and without avoiding the man's gaze, he said to the man: "Let's go, let's go out to eat, and let him sleep in the room by himself."

The two walked out the door of the house one after the other, and the two outside the door didn't see anything about them.

At this time, both Zhao A'mu and Zhao Hu were full, and there were still portions for the two of them on the table.

Seeing his eldest brother and brother come out, Zhao Hu, who was full, got up and prepared to go to work in the wooden house, "Brother, brother, eat slowly, I'm going to the wooden house."

"Well, you go first, and I'll go there when I'm full." Zhao He sat back in his seat just now, picked up his chopsticks and ate the gnocchi in the bowl.Josh also sat where he was just now, without their son in the middle, and the rest of the people had eaten up, only the two of them were still eating.

There was some silence at the dinner table, and no one spoke.

The chopsticks in his hand were picking up the contents of the bowl to his mouth, Josh's thoughts had already flown a little far away, thinking of what happened to them last night, and this man hadn't asked him anything since morning, could it be Has this man never suspected anything?Or just wondering where he came from?

At this moment, there were two extra pieces of meat in his bowl. Following the owner of the chopsticks, he looked at the man who held the meat for him.The man said to him: "Eat quickly, don't think about it."

Josh looked down and saw that the noodle soup in his own bowl had cooled down, and the man had already finished his bowl, and even ate the half of their son's leftover bowl. It was obvious that he was sitting there waiting watching him eat and clear the table. "If you want to be busy, go and do it. I'll clean it up here." He said.

But the man didn't get up, but waited until he had finished his meal before he cleared the table and went to the wooden house.

The afternoon sun was so strong that people's brains were a little dizzy.

After sitting outside for a while, I wanted to do something, but I was not in the mood, and my energy was not very good, so I told the child Ah Mo, and he went back to the house to rest.Lying on the bed, his mind was full of disturbances. He thought he would not be able to fall asleep, but he didn't expect that he would fall asleep soon after he closed his eyes.

When he woke up, it was already afternoon.

Sitting up from the bed, seeing that there was no sun outside, Josh turned his head and glanced at the little boy who was still soundly asleep beside him, stretched out his hand to touch the child's strength and back, felt the sweat in his hand, and knew that the child It was so hot that he was sweating during sleep, so he went to find a dry cloth towel and came over to wipe the child's sweat.

He turned over and over, and the child was also woken up by him, without even opening his eyes, he mumbled "Eum" with the hand holding him.

"Have Zai Zai woke up? Do you want to get up?" Josh wiped off the child's sweat, threw the cloth towel beside the bed, and looked at the child who refused to open his eyes after waking up.

The child rolled to his side, hugged his waist, buried in his arms and called to him in a low voice.

He lay on the bed with the child for a while, and when the child eased over the urge to get up, he got up from the bed with the child in his arms, tied the child in a small tie, and carried the child outside.

When they came out of the house, the sun outside the yard had already passed, there was food in the trough, and a group of chickens were eating around.Hearing the sound coming from the kitchen, he took the child into the kitchen and saw the child's Ah Mo busy here, so he asked: "Mum, you are cooking, where are the children's father and Xiaohu?"

The door of the wooden house was closed, and no one was seen inside or outside the house. The other two people in the family were obviously not at home.

"You guys are awake, I'm about to cook." Zhao Amu was washing the pot inside, when she saw her daughter-in-law and grandson woke up at some point, she said, "Boss and Xiaohu have gone to the field. You Didn’t it mean that our wheat needs to be sprayed with water? Since the sun is not so hot now, I’ll let them go earlier, spray them and come back to eat.”

"Oh." Josh fed the child some water, drank half a bowl of water himself, and said to Eminem who was busy inside: "Eminem, take Niannian outside to play, I'll be here. "

"What are we going to eat tonight, or I can make it, you and the child go out to rest for a while." Zhao Amu hasn't cooked for a long time, and her daughter-in-law usually cooks. He helped to light the fire, and he hadn't even picked up the kitchen shovel for a long time.

I went to the kitchen today to have a look, and he really didn't know what to cook.

During this period of time, the dishes made by the daughter-in-law have spoiled the appetite of the whole family. If the food he cooks is too unpalatable, I don’t know if his son and grandson will like it. He is a little worried about this, so he has been delayed. I didn't come to cook late.But just waited and waited, before the daughter-in-law and grandson who were sleeping in the house got up, he thought about coming over and making today's dinner, so as to save everyone from having nothing to eat when they came back.

"Let's eat fried rice at night, just make a soup, and there's nothing else to do." Josh went to fetch the water, opened the jar of soaked glutinous rice and looked at the soaked glutinous rice inside. The glutinous rice had already been eaten, and when they went to town, he bought another bag of glutinous rice.

Now the staple food they eat at home is coarse grains mixed with fine grains. The taste of eating coarse grains alone is not that good, but the price of fine grains is too expensive, and eating fine grains alone is too extravagant, but it is better to eat them mixed with coarse grains.

The rice for dinner was pre-soaked. He thought about eating fried glutinous rice today, so he pre-soaked it enough for several people in his family to eat.In order to avoid not having enough food, he deliberately added half a spoonful of rice.

"Oh, that's fine." As soon as he heard that it was a job he didn't know how to do, Zhao Amu gave up the idea of ​​rushing to cook, and took his grandson out, "I'll take my grandson outside first, and I'll wait a while." Come in and help you light the fire."

"Okay, you guys go out first, it's not that fast, I'll call you when I'm done." Josh replied without turning his head.
