Chapter 3493 Ping'er's Joy
That day Song smiled and kept looking at Xiao Yaxue, with nothing but love and care in his eyes.
“Dislike it? Am I worthy?” he said.
"To put it bluntly, Qing'er, I feel that living is really interesting now."
"In the past, when we were in Daliao, we had fine clothes and fine food. I’ve had enough fun, but I feel empty, lonely, and cold!”
Yang Ruoqing rolled her eyes...
That day Risong ignored Yang Ruoqing's eyes and continued: "It's different now. I am fulfilled and busy every day, and my heart is still warm."
"Look, how smoothly does my wife feed the chickens? These reed chickens were all hatched by her during the first month of the year. ,"
"My son now wakes up every morning with a bowl of sweet egg drop made from eggs laid by the chickens at home."
"And the clothes I am wearing are made from eggs. My daughter-in-law sewed it with her own hands, and I suddenly felt that this is how to live, my wife, my children, the hot bed, it’s so warm!” he said.
After hearing his thoughts, Yang Ruoqing curled her lips.
"Life is like this. No matter how big an official you are or how big a job you do, when you finish your work at night and go home, there are two people in one bed,"
"Husband and wife If we work together, we can cut through metal!”
That day Song nodded repeatedly.
Over there, Xiao Yaxue saw the two of them coming out and knew that they had finished talking about business.
So, she also ended her sentry duty, scattered the last handful of grains in the ladle, collected the ladle and walked towards the two of them.
"Qing'er, are you going back?" Xiao Yaxue asked.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Yes, after talking about the business with Narisong, I still have to rush back to bake and make rice dumplings."
Xiao Yaxue pursed her lips and smiled, "I'll do it too. I have glutinous rice, but not the rice dumpling leaves yet. "Go and chop it."
Then she stared at Narisong and said, "Why are you laughing? After finishing the business, go and chop the rice dumpling leaves. I asked you to go there yesterday. You have to delay..."
Na Risong said with a smile: "Isn't it just chopping rice dumpling leaves? What a big deal. Just wait. After lunch, Uncle Risong will go directly to the Houshan River to carry a big rice dumpling tree back for you!" "
Xiao Yaxue curled her lips, "Sure, this is what you said. If I don't see the rice dumpling tree before cooking dinner, , watch your skin carefully."
After saying this, Xiao Yaxue reached out and took Yang Ruoqing's arm, "Qing'er, come to the kitchen with me, I have something for you."
In the kitchen, Xiao Yaxue opened the lid of a jar, stuck her butt out and took out five or six large duck eggs.
Each duck egg is also wrapped in yellow mud and rice husk.
"This is... Songhua egg?" Yang Ruoqing asked in surprise.
Xiao Yaxue smiled and nodded.
“This is a specialty here. When I was in Daliao, I couldn’t do without this dish in every meal.” Nothing to eat, and no one in the market town I have to sell it. I really can't hold it in for the past two years."
"I tried hard to recall the pickling methods I heard from the maids in the past, and I didn't know how many duck eggs were wasted before I finally succeeded."
Xiao Yaxue said, took a preserved egg, poured water to wash away the mud on it, and then peeled it open.
Yang Ruoqing also came over, and when she saw the slippery preserved egg in Xiao Yaxue's hand, she almost drooled.
To be honest, she is also a preserved egg fan!
I like to eat, but I don’t know how to cook.
This thing is different from salted duck eggs. Salted duck eggs are relatively simple to make, while the process of making preserved eggs is more complicated.
Yang Ruoqing tried twice but failed, and then she didn't bother to try anymore. The rotten smell deprived the family of several good meals, and they gradually gave up the idea.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yaxue persisted and succeeded.
"Qing'er, look, this snowflake pattern is beautiful, isn't it?"
Xiao Yaxue pointed to the pattern on the surface of the preserved egg and said to Yang Ruoqing like a treasure.
Yang Ruoqing nodded repeatedly, "I can't wait to eat it."
Xiao Yaxue smiled and stuffed the preserved egg directly into Yang Ruoqing's hand and said: "Here, eat it quickly, I like to eat it raw."
Yang Ruoqing smiled and said: "What a coincidence, I also like to eat it raw. I drink the egg yolk liquid inside while eating, it's so delicious."
After eating a preserved egg at Xiao Yaxue's place, Yang Ruoqing It was so satisfying.
Then he took a few preserved eggs from Xiao Yaxue and went home happily.
The first thing I do when I get home is to rinse my mouth carefully.
Although preserved eggs are delicious, they have a strong taste.
Yang Ruoqing plans to recommend it to the three children at night. At that time, it will be cooked first and then cut into flower petals with wires.
Use vinegar, soy sauce, salt, and spicy sauce with green onions. Mozi mixes up the dipping sauce and eats it. In this late spring and early summer, it is an excellent cold dish to go with rice.
When the sun was about to set, Zhou Sheng and Ping'er came back from the town with Huahua and Bingbing.
Bingbing stayed in the car while Zhou Sheng sent Ping'er and Huahua into the courtyard gate.
Zhou Sheng was carrying something heavy in both hands, his steps were windy, and he looked in a good mood.
As for Ping'er, her face was also full of joy. Although the two of them didn't speak much, their eyes were full of drama when they occasionally looked at each other.
On this trip to the town, it is obvious that the relationship between the two has improved a lot.
“Brother Zhou Sheng, just send it here, Bingbing is still waiting for you in the car!”
Arriving at the door of the small side courtyard, Ping'er stopped and said to Zhou Sheng.
Zhou Sheng nodded, "You are also tired today, go to bed early."
Ping'er nodded, and when she saw Zhou Sheng was about to leave, she called to him again.
"Brother Zhou Sheng, don't forget to return the carriage to Qing'er's father's house." She reminded.
When she went to town today, she originally thought she would take the ox cart borrowed by Zhou Sheng from his eldest brother's house.
Being in public, she would be a little embarrassed to meet acquaintances along the way, so Ping'er specially found a handkerchief and prepared to wrap her head like country women.
Unexpectedly, Brother Zhou Sheng actually borrowed a carriage from Qing'er's father, which really surprised her and touched him for his good intentions.
Ping'er came to find Yang Ruoqing, holding two bags of snacks in her hands.
"Bring the three children something to eat," she put the things on the table, smiled, and added in a low voice at the end: "Brother Zhou Sheng bought them for me."
Yang Ruoqing looked at them The two packages of food on the table were not bought from a grocery store, but from a store in the town that specializes in selling food.
"Brother Zhou Sheng is a big spender. I guess he has never bought such good food for his soldiers, right?" Yang Ruoqing asked with a smile.
Ping'er nodded lightly, "He spent a lot of money today, buying a lot of things for us and my wife, including clothes and food,"
"Finally We went to see the dancing place in Feiyanfang. We thought it was pretty good. Brother Zhou Sheng paid for the tuition..."
Yang Ruoqing kept smiling while listening to Ping'er talk about going to town today, and she felt sorry for Zhou Sheng in her heart. Very very satisfied with the performance.
