A poor family counterattacks, she is beautiful and sassy on the way to the imperial examination

Chapter 6 6 Leek Egg Pancakes

Seeing the displeasure on Dr. Mu's calm face, An Shouli hurriedly greeted him, and left in a dejected manner wearing wet clothes.

This is the only doctor in their village. If you mess with him, no one will show you if your family has a minor illness or disaster.

Mu Tan watched An Shouli leave, swept the closed courtyard door of An Chuxia's house, turned around and entered his own courtyard.

When An Chuxia heard that there was no movement outside, she also carried the book basket and went back to the room to put it away. She knew that her brother and the others would not come back until dark when they went to work for the Landlord Wang's house.

So I turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Thinking that Brother Cheap must be very tired after working all day, An Chuxia wanted to make up for him, but the ancient villages really had limited resources.

In addition, because this family is for her to study, this brother An Jinchen can't wait to break a copper coin into two to spend, and save all the rest for his sister to study.

Whether it's An Jinchen in this life, or the eldest brother who was a special soldier in the previous life, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are good brothers who love their sister very much.

An Chuxia looked around the kitchen, and there was a water jar by the door, which was filled with water.

There is an old tableware cabinet against the wall, and a vegetable cutting table is built with stone slabs next to it.

An Chuxia scooped some flour out of the few remaining noodle jars, kneaded it into dough and put it aside to wake up.

Then he picked up the basket and went to the small vegetable garden in front of her house, cut leeks, picked two courgettes and green peppers.

When I came back, I beat the only two eggs left at home, baked some leek and egg pies, and cooked a coarse grain porridge.

I washed two courgettes and green peppers, cut them into slices, and fried a plate of vegetables.

After the meal was ready, An Chuxia washed her hands, walked out of the courtyard and looked into the distance. The scenery of the fields was hazy.

He couldn't help wondering why the cheap brother An Jinchen hadn't come back since it was so late.

Could it be that Landlord Wang's family is so black-hearted that they won't release them at such a late hour.

An Chuxia was going to go back and heat the pancakes and vegetables in the pot, so that when An Jinchen came back, he could have a mouthful of hot rice.

As soon as I walked into the yard, I smelled a smell of burnt food.

Smelling the smell, she walked to the base of the courtyard wall and stood on a stone, and saw Doctor Mu, who had rescued her earlier, looking at the charred vegetables on the plate with a troubled expression.

He could faintly hear him muttering in a low voice: "I've already burned the firewood to a very small size, why is the dish still mushy today!"

"Puchi!" An Chuxia couldn't hold back her cry.

When Mu Tan heard the voice, he turned his head and looked over.

He vaguely saw a small black head lying on the courtyard wall separating the two houses.

An Chuxia saw Mu Tan looking at her, and touched her nose in embarrassment.

The voice said with some embarrassment: "Doctor Mu, you haven't eaten yet!"

Mu Tan stared at the little girl next door, she didn't even dare to lift her head when she saw him before, let alone talk to him.

After being rescued by him from falling into the water, he seemed to be a different person. Now every time I see him, I will greet him warmly.

"...Is something wrong?"

The sound of wood sandalwood is very magnetic, giving people a very stable and down-to-earth feeling.

An Chuxia felt very comfortable every time she heard his voice.

"It's okay! It's just that I baked a lot of pancakes today, and I want to ask Dr. Mu to help eliminate a few."

After An Chuxia finished speaking, Mutan couldn't answer, she jumped off the rock and went to the kitchen, took a few pieces and put them on the plate.

He ran back to the courtyard wall and stood on the stone, "Here is Doctor Mu, the pies are so good, don't be disgusted!"

Because there was only one courtyard wall apart, even though it was dark, Mu Tan could still see the expectation in the little girl's eyes.

A helpless smile appeared on his plain face, he shook his head, and walked over to take the leek and egg pie that An Chuxia handed over.

An Chuxia also smiled when she saw Mutan take the pancake.

Mu Tan looked at the sweet smile on the little girl's face, and couldn't help feeling warm in his heart. It had been many years since anyone had smiled at him like this.

Since his father was wronged to death, his mother was hit and died in depression.

Grandfather was obsessed with medicine.

He becomes someone who really no one cares about.

"If Doctor Mu doesn't have enough food, I'll get it for you."

Mu Tan looked at the five pancakes on the plate, "That's enough, thank you, Miss An!"

Hearing Mu Tan said that it was enough, An Chuxia didn't say anything more, after all, it wasn't that the pancakes she baked were too much to eat.

It's just that An Chuxia was so enthusiastic about delivering food when she saw Mu Tan muddy the food and thought that he had saved her life.

Although Mu Tan also thought of this reason, he was still very grateful for the warmth sent by the little girl next door.

An Chuxia was about to jump off the rock and go to the kitchen to heat up the food in the pot when she heard a loud voice from outside the yard.

"A-Chen is waiting for me tomorrow, and we will go to work together at Landlord Wang's house, 25 Wen a day will not be old or young!"

Hearing the commotion outside, An Chuxia knew that An Jinchen was back, and hurriedly fetched a basin of water to wash him later.

The oil lamps were lighted, the table was brought over and set, and the meal was served on it.

When An Jinchen came in, he saw An Chuxia who was busy going back and forth.

"Xiao Xia! Brother is back!"

An Chuxia could hear the tired hoarseness in his voice, and felt distressed and complained a little.

The first time she saw An Jinchen go to do hard work and come back tired like a dog at night, she once told him that she had a way to make money.

However, she was suppressed by this ignorant brother, who didn't even let her say a word, but said with a stern expression.

She doesn't have to worry about making money, as long as she finishes her studies, she is willing to exhaust him to death.

Afterwards, An Chuxia also mentioned it a few times, but An Jinchen stared back with such an ignorant look.

Now An Chuxia doesn't think so much anymore, as long as An Jinchen, this brother, feels happy.

"When I get back... I'll wash my hands and come over for dinner."

An Chuxia finally served two bowls of gruel to the table.

An Jinchen was probably really hungry. After washing his face and hands extremely quickly, he walked to the table and sat down with a pancake and took a big bite.

"Brother! Drink some porridge first to pad your stomach, and then eat pancakes so you won't feel uncomfortable."

An Jinchen obediently picked up the big rough bowl and drank half a bowl of porridge in one go. Fortunately, the porridge was already warm, otherwise it must be scalding him.

"Xiaxia! How did you think of wrapping leeks and eggs in bread? It's delicious when baked like this."

An Chuxia, who was drinking gruel with his head down, raised his head in surprise, no!

She clearly saw someone selling steamed stuffed buns in Qingshi Town, but what An Jinchen said seemed to be the first time she saw stuffed pies.

An Chuxia's eyes flashed and he said tentatively, "Brother, let's have dumplings someday!"

An Jinchen chewed the pie in his mouth, thinking that it was much tastier than dry pancakes.

"What are dumplings, and where did Xia Xia eat them? Tell my brother, and he will buy them for you."
