Chapter 19 Zhizi Mo Ruomu
“Woof woof.”
Wu Jin responded, wagging his tail again.
Apparently happy with the name.
"Then you finish eating and rest early. I'll go to bed first." Xia Mingyue touched Wu Jin's forehead and returned to the house with satisfaction.
After Wu Jin licked the jar clean, he licked his mouth again and again before lying down.
But a pair of eyes kept moving, looking at the earthen pot in front of him, at the window of the house where Xia Mingyue slept, and at the yard.
When he was sure that the surroundings were very quiet and nothing was wrong, Wu Jin placed his head completely on his front paws and closed his eyes with peace of mind.
In the early morning, Xia Mingyue woke up early.
The stove couldn't be used, and she still needed to go to Lu's house to have breakfast and make cakes at Lu's house, so she simply took a piece of Wu Jin with her to recognize her.
When Wu Jintong left, he took his earthen jar and basin in his mouth.
The earthen pot and basin are quite heavy, but Wujin bites it very easily and effortlessly.
The bite force is amazing!
Xia Mingyue sighed and reached out to touch Wu Jin's head, "I hope he is a good housekeeper."
It is!
Wu Jin was holding an earthen pot in his mouth and could not make a "woof" sound, but could only make a low "woo" sound.
The door to Lu's courtyard was open, and Xia Mingyue walked in directly.
"Aunt Xia is coming soon, dinner is about to be served."
Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu greeted them warmly, but when they saw the black gold Xia Mingyue was carrying, their eyes widened. , emit bright light.
What a big dog. Although he is a little thinner, he looks so majestic!
"Where did Aunt Xia get the dog?"
"Picked it up." Xia Mingyue answered truthfully, "Last night it came to look for food. It looked quite docile, so I wanted it to stay and look after the house. It seemed to agree, so it stayed, and I named it Wu Jin.”
Wu Jin?
What a name!
The two brothers were extremely curious and circled around Wu Jin.
In the past, the two of them also wanted to raise a dog. They thought that taking a dog out would be very impressive, but their mother made a decision and left the dog alone, not the dog, and the dog not the person.
Based on the principle that they must not be thrown out, the two brothers could only put their thoughts on raising a dog to rest.
But now when looking at the majestic Wu Jin, these thoughts are like grass buds in spring, sprouting out.
"Mother, mother, look, Aunt Xia has picked up a dog to raise." Zhao Dahu went to report the news first.
Zhao Erhu echoed, "My name is Wu Jin."
Mrs. Lu was serving rice in the kitchen. She came out with a bowl when she heard the commotion. When she saw Wu Jin following Xia Mingyue, she laughed and said, "It's okay to have a dog. Qi Yan is not at home on weekdays, and my siblings live alone. If you are doing business on weekdays, it is inevitable that some people will be concerned about it. With Wu Jin here, my brothers and sisters can sleep at ease at night.” Pour some hot soup on it and it will be enough for Wu Jin to have a meal."
Wu Jin obviously understood and walked to Lu and placed the earthen pot in his mouth on the ground.
Ms. Lu was stunned for a moment, then understood, and laughed, "Yes, he is a humane person. My brothers and sisters are very lucky."
As he spoke, he took Wujin's earthenware pot and broke it. Take the oil rolls, pour a ladle of rice soup over them, and set them aside.
The rice soup was still too hot to be eaten, so Wu Jin squatted aside and waited.
Xia Mingyue and others were having breakfast in the yard.
A sticky rice soup made of rice and millet mixed with some white flour, warm rolls with scallion oil, a boiled egg for each person, and the side dishes were shredded mustard greens that Lu had pickled with mustard knots before last winter.
Dry-pickled mustard shreds are sealed tightly enough when pickled. They are still crispy from early winter to now. Add some extra sugar, vinegar, green onion and sesame oil and mix them together to get the fragrance of mustard shreds. I was completely inspired and made a special effort to eat. Everyone ate deliciously, and the rice soup in the black gold earthenware pot was slightly cold, and it started its own unique breakfast.
Although Wujin ate a very big mouthful, he did not gobble it up. Instead, he ate very gracefully. Not to mention the food residue from the corner of his mouth, even the rice soup could not flow out.
After finishing the meal, Wu Jin licked the earthen pot cleanly, leaving no trace behind, as if it had been washed with water.
Such actions made Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu more and more curious about Wujin, and the idea of raising a dog was even more intense.
“Mom, Wu Jin is so obedient.”
“Wu Jin is a dog. Dogs are obedient and understand human nature. They will not cause any trouble.”
After the two brothers sang and harmonized, they both rolled their eyes and looked at Lu.
Mr. Lu obviously knew what the two brothers were planning at this time, and she didn’t even say anything to each other. She just said, "You two put away the dishes and chopsticks and go to the vat to wash them clean."
"Okay..."
The two of them did as they were told, but still didn't give up, "Mom, I heard that Gao Da's big yellow dog is about to sit in the nest. Dahuang is famous for his understanding of human nature. He gave birth to Dogs must be smart!”
“Just get one that’s all yellow and the color is like gold. Maybe it will bring you wealth.”
Now that I have started doing business, my mother likes money the most.
In this regard, there is absolutely nothing wrong.
Mrs. Lu rolled up her sleeves, scooped water into the basin and asked Xia Mingyue to wash her hands, "Sister-in-law, can you try the pig pancreas I bought recently? It smells pretty good to me..."< br>
Zhao Dahu, “…”
Zhao Erhu, “…”
Yes, oil and salt are not allowed to enter.
The two brothers knew that there was no chance at all, so they both drooped their heads and their faces were wrinkled into buns.
Seeing this, Mrs. Lu raised her eyebrows slightly, while Xia Mingyue couldn't help laughing.
There is no better way to know a son than a mother, this is true.
After a busy day, Xia Mingyue and Lu set up a stall on the street as usual.
Business is still booming, making others envious.
Especially for those who sell steamed buns and sesame cakes on the street. When they see people coming and going at the stalls, their hands are not empty when they leave. Some people even hold a stack of cakes in their hands. Sigh after sigh.
Comparing people with each other is so annoying!
“Hey, Brother Erniu, why do you think the business at this stall is so good?” Zhang Laifu, the bun seller, couldn’t help but murmured to Jiang Erniu next to him.
“Who knows.” Jiang Erniu put out the fire in the stove a little.
The business of the sesame cake stall has been slow recently. It takes a long time to sell out the sesame cakes. If you try again, you won't be able to sell them, so you have to eat them yourself.
But his family is not very well-off and has a large population. He cannot afford to eat fine white flour sesame cakes like this every day, so he might as well make less and save some charcoal.
After a moment, he added, "Everyone says that Xia's and Lu's pancakes are delicious, but I have never eaten them, so I don't know how delicious they are."
It's actually So many people can come to buy it.
"That's right." Zhang Laifu also scratched the back of his head, "I see, this guy is just a cheap guy. He thinks expensive is good, and he doesn't care about the actual situation."
"Brother Erniu, it's not me. I think the pancakes he sells are not as delicious as the sesame cakes sold here by Brother Erniu. But they happened to steal Brother Erniu's business. It's really annoying."< br>
