After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Chapter 11 Gu Jingcheng is coming back?
Su Xiaomu went home with the meat.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Mrs. Li in the yard.

Subconsciously, he hid his body back.

A somewhat guilty smile appeared on his face.

"Mother...I'm back."

Mrs. Li was picking up the soles of her shoes, and raised her head when she saw her like this.

Just ask without thinking.

"What did you buy again?"

This daughter-in-law is good at everything, caring and beautiful, but she can spend too much money. These days, she brings food home.

Could it be that I gave too much pocket money?
Su Xiaomu pursed his lips, and approached cautiously.

"Mom, don't be angry! Me, I just bought some meat back."

After Li lifted the lid and found such a big lump of pork inside, she felt a little pain in her heart.

Why is this girl so incapable of living? With such a big piece of pork, the pocket money given these days must have been spent on pork.

"Xiaomu, our family is not a rich family. If we don't know how to be frugal and spend a lot of money every day, how can we save money to study for Jingcheng?"

These days, Mrs. Li treated Su Xiaomu with a pleasant face. Although she was dissatisfied, she never spoke harshly. Instead, she looked at her little daughter-in-law and reasoned.

"Mother, I'm not spending money indiscriminately, I'm not thinking that Jingcheng has always been filial to my mother. You said that if he knew that all the money in the family was given to him to study, but we would feed ourselves with wild vegetables every day, would it be okay? I feel ashamed in my heart, affecting his heart...reading."

Su Xiaomu originally wanted to talk about mentality, but there seems to be no such word in ancient times.

"Kejingcheng... always knows how to be frugal at home."

Mrs. Li was a little hesitant, but didn't feel that the whole family did something wrong.

"Although I know, but every time my husband comes home, he will bring all the delicious food to him, so even if he knows it well, he may not understand it completely. Besides, we don't eat big fish every day, but we occasionally order some meat. Mother Don't worry, I will definitely save up enough of my husband's money!"

In short, she must eat this braised pork today!

It's impossible to buy all the meat, why can't she look at it?
After persuading Mrs. Li for a long time, she finally let go and let Su Xiaomu into the kitchen, but in the end she still told her not to spend money so extravagantly next time.

But the last sentence, Su Xiaomu directly filtered it out in his head.

The fat and thin braised pork, paired with a bowl of steamed dry rice, life is as happy as a fairy.

She skillfully cut the fat and thin pork belly into pieces. There was no cooking wine in ancient times, so she put some salt and ginger and blanched it.

There are also onions and garlic, but there are no potatoes. If there are potatoes, it will be even more fragrant.

After blanching, the pork belly is washed repeatedly with clean water, then drained, poured into the pot and stir-fried repeatedly to remove the fat.

There is no need to put oil in the pot. After all, the pork is oily, and the lard is also delicious and full of appetite.

Stir-fry the oily lard and put it in a jar, and put a little bit of sugar in it.

This white sugar was hidden in a jar in the kitchen by Mrs. Li, and she found it by accident two days ago.

There is no way, sugar is expensive in ancient times, and the average family can eat the taste of sugar once a year, which is considered to be in good condition.

It's not a pity that Su Xiaomu doesn't have soy sauce for coloring. After all, the conditions are like this. A really good food blogger can cook amazing dishes even in the worst environment.

I poured a ladle of boiling water from another pot into this pot, covered the pork belly, then put in the spices I found on the mountain these days, and finally simmered for half an hour on low heat to collect the juice.

She was not idle during the stewing time, and took out a handful of bracken for salad.

This is also a new way of cooking on the table of Gu's family after she came.

After a busy afternoon, Su Xiaomu brought the stewed pork belly, big stick of bone soup, and a bowl of cold bracken to the table.

Such a table of dishes stunned the eyes of all the Gu family members!

Gu Feng swallowed in disbelief, looked at the smiling sister-in-law in front of him, and then at the old woman who had been silent all this time, he stayed for a long time before saying: "Mom... this is really something our family can eat... Food?"

The rice on the table is also dry, although there are sweet potatoes and millet, but it is really dry! !
You must know that their family can only eat dry rice during the Chinese New Year. Usually, even if the third child comes back, he will drink a bowl of thick porridge at most.

"Eat, this is made by your sister-in-law who has been busy all afternoon. She paid for the meat. If you don't eat it, wouldn't it be a waste of his heart?"

Mrs. Li put a chopstick of braised pork into the bowl first, and seeing her start eating, the rest dared to move their chopsticks.

"I've never seen pork done like this."

Gu Feng picked up a piece of meat and fed it into his mouth. The moment the meat touched his tongue, his eyes widened in surprise.

The taste of this dish is simply superb!
The aroma of the meat is not only very strong, but also has a sugary aroma, and the meat is smooth and tender, fat but not greasy, it melts in the mouth, it is really amazing!

One piece after another was sandwiched into the bowl, he almost wanted to swallow his tongue.

"Sisters and sisters, you made this dish...the emperor eats like this."

"Brother is too polite to speak."

Su Xiaomu couldn't afford such compliments, and their compliments were not important now.

The chopsticks in her hand were flying up, and the meat was fed into her mouth piece by piece, what a cook!Cooking is the most important thing!
After the whole family had such a meal together, Su Xiaomu went to bed early and happily at night.

She continued to sell cakes with Yin's the next day, and the business has been getting better and better recently, and some regular customers began to order cakes with them in advance.

So those that weren't booked, sold faster.

Making money makes people happy, but on the way home Yin starts to say things she doesn't like to hear.

"Calculating the days... the third child should be back in two days. Speaking of which, you two haven't met officially, and my mother has been telling me these days, it's best for you two to consummate the house earlier, so that We can have a few more children in our family."

Su Xiaomu was a little annoyed, because everything could be related to having a baby.

But that scholar's cheap husband is coming back? ?
Yin looked at Su Xiaomu with a smile on her face. Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, with a surprised expression on her face, she smiled and said, "Why are you so embarrassed? The third child is your husband, and he will be promising in the future." , Our family is still pointing at him to live."

"Yeah... I still... I still live by him."

Su Xiaomu's tongue was tied up when he spoke, he was a bit ignorant of his conscience.

When I went home in the evening, I ate the leftovers from yesterday. The whole family ate happily, but she found it hard to swallow.

It's not that I don't look down on leftovers, it's really frustrating.

Not in the mood to sit in the yard chatting with Yin Shi and Chen Shi, she said early on that she would go back to her room to sleep.

I took out the money I earned these days and counted it. There are more than 200 wen in total, and I can't do anything for the time being.

Even if she was allowed to save for a few more days, she still wouldn't be able to make up a tael of silver.

Why not let him study in the academy for two more days?
Didn't he say he loves to study?
Don't people who love to learn forget to sleep and eat when they read books?How come you still have time to go home!

Su Xiaomu tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep, tears streaming down his face, and began to think about where Gu Jingcheng would sleep when he came back.

You can't sleep with her, can you?
