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

Chapter 27 Raising Chicken Cubs

Mrs. Li was worried that Gu Jingcheng would be messed up and said bad things to Su Xiaomu. Although she felt sorry for her son, but the daughter-in-law she bought was delicate and soft, and she couldn't bear to let her be spoiled.

"Oh, why do you two suddenly want to go up the mountain to pick fruits? Look, Xiaomu, your clothes are still scratched by branches."

She took the initiative to take Su Xiaomu's hand, looked at her torn clothes and joked: "Why don't you let Jingcheng protect you, fortunately, you just tore your clothes, if you accidentally cut your hands, your hands will bleed , then you will have to suffer."

Su Xiaomu's skin looks fair and tender, even more juicy than a little girl like Gu Ruotong.

"Sanggong protects me, it's all because of my own carelessness, mother, don't blame Xianggong."

Su Xiaomu lowered his eyebrows shyly.

Gu Jingcheng knew that she had always acted obediently in front of Li Shi, so he didn't say much, and went back by himself after talking to Li Shi for a few words.

This is an opportunity for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to speak alone.

"Talk to your mother carefully, Jingcheng didn't treat you well at the dinner table just now, why is he willing to help you get things so soon?"

Can she still not count the children she gave birth to?
Although Jingcheng has always been a cold-faced and warm-hearted child, he has always shown no good looks towards people he doesn't like.

"I didn't say anything... I just told my husband that I really want to treat him well and live a good life with him."

A thin red cloud appeared on Su Xiaomu's face, and then she showed a very gentle smile. Two red dimples were slightly sunken on her cheeks, she wringed her fingers shyly, and kept rubbing her feet on the ground.

"Actually...in fact, the husband is also very good."

"Of course Jingcheng is good, in fact, my mother doesn't ask much now, I just hope that you two can live a good life.

You are a good girl, Jingcheng is still not familiar with you now, after waiting for a long time, he will definitely be willing to live a good life with you after seeing how good you are. "

Mrs. Li is still waiting to have a grandson. When their family Jingcheng becomes a father, she will be able to live a more relaxed life.

"I hope so too, I have to live a good life."

The smile on Su Xiaomu's face became brighter and brighter, and he looked at Li Shi with round eyes, which seemed to be full of longing.

"I don't have anything to do today. Take this money and buy some tofu. Let's change our taste tonight. Tofu is Jingcheng's favorite."

Seeing this, Mrs. Li was relieved.

He counted five copper plates from his purse and handed them to Su Xiaomu: "Tonight is still up to you."

"Okay, mother, just wait, I will definitely let Xianggong eat his favorite meal."

Su Xiaomu picked up what Li Shi liked to hear.

The tofu seller in the village is not far from them. Five copper coins can buy two pieces. One piece is used to make minced meat tofu with rice, and the other piece is used to fry and eat.

Thinking about the smooth and tender tofu mixed with minced meat mixed with rice, Su Xiaomu's saliva almost drools.

She went home with two pieces of tofu, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw Gu Ruotong sitting under a tree with Mrs. Chen, learning how to embroider handkerchiefs.

"Second sister-in-law is teaching Ruotong how to embroider handkerchiefs. Let me see, I can't learn such a delicate technique."

Su Xiaomu went up to Mrs. Chen to have a closer look, and saw that there were many embroidered handkerchiefs in the basket next to her. The stitches on each handkerchief were very neat and the style was not bad.

Not to mention, although the second sister-in-law is a bit aggressive, this handicraft is not bad!

"Xiaomu, the second sister-in-law wants to ask you for help."

Su Xiaomu's face was full of smiles, and she spoke softly and coquettishly: "Does the second sister-in-law want me to sell handkerchiefs for you?"

Su Xiaomu's eyes followed the movements of Chen's hands again, saying that she hadn't visited the cloth village in the city much.

"It's also the past few days that your second brother has been busy and can't go to the city. I have to raise a few children at home, so I thought that if you were free, you would sell it for me. The Xu's cloth shop in the city, you Report your second brother's name, she knows how to sell this thing."

Even though Mrs. Chen was not easy to get along with at ordinary times, she still had a bit of embarrassment on her face when she asked Su Xiaomu for help at this time.

"Second sister-in-law will not let you help for nothing. If there is anything in the family that needs help, you can tell sister-in-law."

"Then wait for you to pack up your things and bring them to me."

After discussing some details about selling handkerchiefs with Mrs. Chen, Su Xiaomu went to cook with the tofu he bought.

Pan-fried tofu is one of the easiest dishes she has ever made.

Slice the tender tofu, heat the lard in a pan, and fry the tofu until golden on both sides, then add wild onions and sauté until fragrant.

She poured in the prepared sauce, covered the pot and simmered on low heat for 5 minutes, then poured the prepared starch water into the pot, and the fragrant tofu can be served out of the pot after thickening.

She made another dish of tofu with minced meat, stewed in a pot of wild vegetable broth, and when it was served on the table, the Gu family looked straight again.

"Auntie, you are too good. It's the first time I've seen someone make tofu like this."

The courtyard was filled with the aroma of fried tofu and meat, and Gu Ruochen was already so greedy that he began to drool.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li patted his head angrily, and then took care of the family at the table for dinner.

Of course the first chopsticks were for Gu Jingcheng.

But after Li Shi took a bite of tofu, she immediately opened her eyes and looked at Su Xiaomu: "You really made this?"

"It was taught by my mother at home. I heard that I learned it from a restaurant master in the city."

Su Xiaomu spared no effort to put gold on the face of the original owner's mother.

Anyway, the two villages were far apart, so it was impossible for Mrs. Li to go over to ask if there was such a thing.

"Your mother is capable, and you are up to the task. You can learn everything well."

After the family finished their meal quietly, Mrs. Li called Su Xiaomu aside to talk and didn't let her wash the dishes.

"The third child is going to work in the fields with his father in the afternoon, you boil some eggs for them and take them with you."

Mrs. Li quietly gave Su Xiaomu the key to the kitchen cabinet, and she said in a low voice, "Bring one more for the third child."

"Okay, but mother, do we have tea at home?"

Speaking of white water eggs, Su Xiaomu really wants to eat tea eggs.

"Yes, there is, but it's old tea from a few years ago. Why do you want to drink it?"

Mrs. Li stared at Su Xiaomu suspiciously, the little girl's family didn't do much work, and the weather wasn't too hot, so why not drink tea to relieve the heat?
She thought that she might be wasting food, and her face collapsed immediately: "You are not allowed to mess around."

"How dare I act recklessly? Food is so precious now, I don't dare to waste it."

Su Xiaomu shook Li Shi's arm coquettishly, her voice was soft and soft, and her appearance was cute and charming again, and her well-behaved appearance made Li Shi's temper softened a bit.

"Then what do you want to do?"

"Mom, I was thinking of making a novel way of eating.

Let's buy some more milk, Xianggong is studying so hard every day, and he has to help the family with farm work when he gets home. I'm worried that he will be exhausted. It's useless to eat an egg once in a while. It's better to supplement it every day.

The eggs cooked by my method are delicious and not greasy. "

Su Xiaomu used Gu Jingcheng as a shield without blushing, she lightly blinked her round eyes full of expectation: "Is it all right, mother?"
