Life in a small village with quiet mountains and quiet waters

Chapter 141 Another Mixed Meal
"Let's go!"

Coming in front of Gu Siwei, Hu Yanqiu made another very small movement, that is, twisted his waist, which was so small that he couldn't see it if he didn't pay attention. Anyway, Gu Siwei didn't see it, and only Hu Yanqiu knew it.

Gu Siwei said stupidly: "What are you going to do? You can take your things back. Anyway, you have a bicycle. I don't have that thing. Here."

As he said that, he bent down and took out the things he brought out of the basket.

Hu Yanqiu said: "I didn't ride a bicycle today, the bicycle broke down."

"broken?"

Gu Siwei was a little skeptical, why it was fine in the morning, but it was broken at noon?But after thinking about it for a while, I think it's not unusual. Isn't it normal for a bicycle to break down?

"It's broken, how will you come to work in the afternoon?" Gu Siwei asked casually.

Hu Yanqiu said: "I don't come to work in the afternoon, but some technical experts come to practice."

"Why?" Gu Siwei asked.

Hu Yanqiu said: "Maybe it's for the leaders to have something to look at when they come to inspect tomorrow. I'm not too sure. Anyway, I and the five or six people who came after me don't have to go to work."

"Yes, yes, rest for a day and a half." Gu Siwei smiled, planning to do something in his heart.

Hu Yanqiu said: "No, I will go to work tomorrow afternoon, and the inspection will end in the morning."

"By the way, you guys are off work, who is on duty at night?" Gu Siwei pretended to ask casually.

Hu Yanqiu didn't think too much about it, and blurted out: "We don't need to be on duty, we will get off work when the hour arrives, and the people on duty are in charge of the security department. Even if we want to defend others, we will not let them go. I am happy On the night shift, no one can go to bed directly. Haha".

"That's right," Gu Siwei followed with a smile.

The two walked while chatting, and the road that was not long was over before they knew it.

Standing at the gate of the family courtyard, Gu Siwei took the things he brought out of the basket and handed them to Hu Yanqiu.

"What are these?" Hu Yanqiu thought that there were not many, but who knew that there were quite a lot. In addition to salt pork, there were also a few pig's trotters, two cockroaches, and two wild ducks alive.

It doesn't look like a lot, but it's really a lot.

"What, what, it's all delicious, hurry up and take it home, I'm leaving." Gu Siwei packed up the basket and carried it on his back.

Just when Hu Yanqiu was thinking about how to bring things home, his mother, Lu Yihui, just came back from get off work. Seeing this scene, she immediately came to the two of them, got out of the car and said.

"Xiao Gu, don't keep sending things here in the future."

"Auntie is back? I didn't give anything away. Aren't I friends with Yanqiu? My sister and I are the only ones at home, so we can't eat the stuff we beat," Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Lu Yihui glanced at the two big turtles in her daughter's hands, and couldn't help but said: "This turtle is big enough, at least it will grow for several years, right?"

"I really don't know about this. My sister caught them last night. She caught a lot of them and gave some to my friends here. There are two more that I wanted to send to your house."

Lu Yihui looked at Gu Siwei, and felt that this kid thought so hard about his daughter that it was not light.

Thinking of this, I turned my head and looked at my daughter, and I couldn't help but feel a little bit of a shock. The so-called knowing son is like a father, and this knowing daughter is like a mother. The flesh that fell from my body, I knew at a glance that my daughter might have been given by this kid. It's settled, honey is almost squeezed out of the eyeballs looking at it like this.

"Well, it just so happens that you're back, auntie, so I'll go back." Gu Siwei had something on his mind, so he naturally had to run away early.

Seeing the appearance of her own daughter, Lu Yihui suddenly didn't want Gu Siwei to leave, so she said, "How can this work? It's shameful that you don't eat a meal when you deliver something. You must stay for dinner, otherwise these things You take it away".

Gu Siwei had a bit of a bitter face: "Auntie, I really have something to do, and I am in a hurry to go back. The villagers suffered damage to the crops in the field due to the heavy rain a few days ago, and now is the time to work."

"No matter how busy you are, don't be in a hurry to have a meal." Lu Yihui said with a slight stern face at Gu Siwei, and then laughed.

Gu Siwei glanced at Hu Yanqiu here, and was going to ask her to help to talk about it. I really have something to do here. I haven’t vented my anger this morning. I have to find a way to escape. What should I bring when I arrive at Hu Yanqiu’s house for dinner? It will take more than an hour, too much delay.

"In this case, go to my house to have a meal. My house is not a dragon's pool or a tiger's den. I'm afraid of you," Hu Yanqiu said to Gu Siwei.

"I'm really not afraid, there's something wrong." Gu Siwei was a little helpless.

Lu Yihui was stunned when she saw the little girl's attitude unknowingly revealed by her daughter. Lu Yihui almost couldn't remember the last time she looked like this. It was at least seven or eight years ago. The girl will still be there Acting like a baby in front of me, but since my daughter grew up, this kind of normal communication between mother and daughter has decreased a lot.

At this point, Lu Yihui couldn't help sighing: What a dilemma, thinking that the children will be able to improve themselves when they grow up, but after the children become self-improving, as a parent, I feel a little lost.

"That's fine, I'll disturb you, Auntie." Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Gu Siwei readily agreed.

Hu Yanqiu said happily: "Then you can cook at noon today, I haven't eaten your handicraft for a long time. It just so happens that my mother can't cook soft-shelled turtles either."

Gu Siwei said: "No problem."

"Girl, how can you ask guests to cook?" Lu Yihui said politely.

Lu Yihui probably forgot that when Gu Siwei went to her house last time, most of the dishes were made by Gu Siwei.

Entering the family courtyard, people kept greeting Lu Yihui and his wife. As for Gu Siwei, he received everyone's attention.

They all guessed in their hearts, who is this handsome guy, he looks like the match of their big girl, not to mention that the two are really good together, the girl is beautiful and the man is handsome, but the man is really a bit Too high.

Gu Siwei has a thick skin, he doesn't care whether others look at it or not, and the one who walks away with two big bastards on his back carrying a basket with his chest up and his head up is called Feng Huo Daoyuan.

Lu Yihui saw that Gu Siwei was under the gaze of everyone, his face was not blushing and his heart was not beating, and his expression was as usual, and he felt that the child had a good personality.

From the perspective of good personality, it seems that many things are good when I think about it. The only thing wrong is that I made a big mistake. If I had an urban household registration, how perfect this kid would be.

When he got home and opened the door, Gu Siwei put down the basket and started working.

Kill bastards first, as for bacon and wild eggs, he doesn't need to deal with them.

Put the bastard on the cutting board and tease it with the chopsticks, the bastard stretched out his head and bit the chopsticks tightly, and he didn't let go, which shows the vigor of the wild bastard.

Its vigor was useless today, and Gu Siwei raised the knife and dropped it with a clang, and overtook it.

I opened the lid with a knife, chopped off the edges of the group, and then chopped the meat into small pieces the size of mahjong pieces, and threw it into a basin to soak and bleed out.

"Auntie, let's keep this in a bucket"

Gu Siwei looked at the remaining one, and he definitely couldn’t burn two today, because there is still bacon, which is really a good tool for dinner, and half of Gu Siwei’s salted bacon is dried in the space, at least it is The results of more than half a year, not to mention other places above are covered with salt and frost, it can be seen that the salt under the salt is enough.

"Why don't you do it all?" Lu Yihui saw the bastard whose eyes had been chopped open, and felt that it was a bit rare.

Gu Siwei guessed Lu Yihui's thoughts, and said: "Enough, let's put a few more potatoes and stew them quickly. When they come out, the potatoes will taste better than soft-shelled turtles."

Gu Siwei's favorite thing in his heart is to stew with rice field eels, but where can Lu Yihui's house find rice field eels for him?

It’s not that the food is bad, but that the average family is not willing to eat this stuff, and even if they have a little money, they can’t wait to buy more staple food. What kind of family does it get if they spend it on rice field eels.

"It's up to you, anyway, I really don't have any talent in this area." Lu Yihui admitted that she really doesn't have any talent for cooking. If her cooking skills were half as enthusiastic as her work, she would definitely be able to do well, but she just I don't like it by nature.

Thinking of this, Lu Yihui couldn't help but glanced at Gu Siwei again, and felt that Gu Siwei had another advantage, that is, he could cook, and his daughter had inherited this from her, and she was confused when she cooked.

At this time, Lu Yihui really felt like a mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at her, the more she liked her, but when she thought of Gu Siwei's household registration, Lu Yihui couldn't be happy again.

It is difficult for people like Gu Siwei decades later to understand the significance of household registration to people in this era. It is not a simple piece of paper, it is a class, a social status.

Stepping over it is not much different from a carp jumping over a dragon's gate.

Gu Siwei waited for the bacon to be washed, took it and put it in the pot to cook for a while, waited for the meat to be soft, took it out of the pot, dried it and started slicing it with a knife.

The bacon was not good-looking when it was first taken out, it was black and dirty, but after washing and cooking, it was obviously much more beautiful, the lean meat showed the color of sauce, and the original white fat had completely evolved into a frozen shape at this moment , almost as if it were transparent.

The knife slid across gently, cutting off a thin slice.

Hu Yanqiu picked it up and looked at the window: "Hey, it's so beautiful, the meat can be marinated like this, transparent."

Hearing the movement here, Lu Yihui also came over, and when she saw the meat, she immediately praised it.

Gu Siwei cut two parts, one part was fat and thin, and they were pressed together on the plate to form a circle along the edge, and an egg was beaten in the middle, and the lean meat from Hu Yanqiu's family was used to chop some stuffing, and put together Steam in a pot.

The other one is to take the thinner part and fry a portion of green vegetables directly. It is a big and full plate, and I don’t pay attention to the presentation. The best presentation is the portion that is sufficient.

As for bastard, it is naturally stewed potatoes. After finishing the bacon, Gu Siwei will make it.

I haven't cooked bastard before, but Gu Siwei just used it as salted goose and stewed it. Pay attention to the seasoning, and the taste can't be bad. Some things are similar, and cooking is the same.

When the dishes are cooked, the room is already full of aroma.

Hu Yanqiu's father, Hu Shunkai, and younger brother Hu Yanping, everyone who entered the room couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and praised the fragrance.
