Smuggling Daming

While Zhou Zhong's family was having a lively meal, the little girl named Qingqing also ran from the backyard of the Zhou Mansion to a yard on the left side of the front yard. The Bai sisters lived in.

I saw Qingqing hugging the clay doll that Zhou Zhong gave him, and quickly ran into the bedroom to put it away, and then took out a paper bag, which contained the snacks that Aunt Wang had caught for her, but she was never willing to eat them, and used paper to eat them all. Wrapped it in my arms and took it back.

Qingqing took the snacks and ran to the wing room on the west side of the yard. This place has been converted into a simple kitchen. A girl in a blue sarong is lighting a fire, but because of her inexperience, the firewood stuffed in the stove is too much. Too much, the fire couldn't start at once, but a puff of smoke came out instead, which made her choke and cough again and again, her face was gray and black, and she looked extremely embarrassed.

In addition to the girl who lit the fire, there was also a woman in a blue sarong cutting vegetables in front of the chopping board. Just looking at her jerky appearance when cutting vegetables, the cabbages she cut out were also large and small. Didn't go to the kitchen either.

"Little aunt~ I'll give you some snacks!" Qingqing took out a piece of pastry and happily ran to the girl who was burning the fire, trying to put the pastry into the girl's mouth.

"Cough~cough~, Qingqing is good, my aunt doesn't eat, it's too choking here, you go out quickly, don't be choked by the smoke!" The girl who lit the fire coughed and asked Qingqing to go out to play. At this time, she was choked. Tears flowed out, and as a result, the black ash on the face was flushed into gullies, which looked very interesting.

Qingqing was also hurt by the choking eyes at this time, so she didn't go forward, turned around and ran to the woman who was cutting vegetables, raised the pastry in her hand and said: "Mother, try it quickly, this is the pastry my aunt gave me." , it’s delicious!”

Hearing Qingqing's words, the woman cutting vegetables squatted down and looked at Qingqing with a gentle smile, "Since Aunt Wang gave it to Qingqing, then Qingqing can't let down Aunt Wang's wishes, and she must finish eating the snacks, okay?" good?"

After listening, Qingqing nodded half-understood and said: "Okay, Qingqing understands!"

"Well, good boy, go to the room and wait for a while, mother and aunt will prepare dinner soon!" I saw the woman gently stroking Qingqing's head and saying, there was a doting look on her incomparably beautiful face. smile.The sensible Qingqing also saw that her mother and aunt were busy, so she nodded obediently again, turned around and ran back to the room to play by herself.

The two women in the kitchen are of course the Bai sisters who have just moved into the Zhou residence. The young woman cutting vegetables is Qingqing's mother Bai Junwan, and the girl lighting the fire is Bai Junwan's younger sister Bai Mengwan.These two sisters used to be the eldest daughters of the family, and spent all their time on their hobbies, and their father was also very enlightened, so the two sisters never learned cooking skills, and now they cook Naturally, he was in a hurry.

After finally waiting for Bai Mengwan to light the fire, the smoke in the kitchen became less. Soon after the water in the pot boiled, Bai Junwan dug out half a bowl of rice from the rice vat with a small bowl, but she After hesitating for a while, he poured back half of the rice in the bowl, and then washed it with clean water and poured it into the pot.

The white rice grains rolled up and down in the boiling water, and a pot of rice porridge was quickly cooked. To be precise, it should be rice soup, because there are too few rice grains in the porridge, and the top is full of clear soup.

After making the rice soup, Bai Mengwan cooked the cabbage in the pot again. Their kitchen was very simple, except for some necessary cooking tools such as pots and pans, there was only a rice jar and a few vegetables. Cabbage, as for cooking seasoning, there is only coarse salt, no oil, vinegar and other seasonings at all, so cabbage can only be cooked in a pot with salt.

"Sister, we've been eating cabbage for days, can we change it?" Bai Mengwan complained to her sister while putting the boiled cabbage in a bowl.

Bai Mengwan is about the same age as Zhou Zhong, with a melon-shaped face, thin eyebrows and eyes like water, even though she is wearing a thorn hairpin sarong, and there are still a few pieces of soot on her face, but she can't conceal her natural beauty at all.And if you compare her with her elder sister Bai Junwan, you will find that the two sisters are almost alike in appearance, except that Bai Mengwan is younger and full of girlish innocence, while Bai Junwan, who is a young woman, is a little more Divided into maturity and intellectuality.

Hearing her sister's complaint, Bai Junwan smiled helplessly and said: "Mengwan, we escaped from Nanjing too hastily, and we didn't bring too much belongings with us. Now there are not many left, so everything must be done carefully." Be frugal, but the embroidery in my hand is almost finished, and when it is finished, I can sell it, and I should be able to exchange for some silver, and then we can buy some delicious food to celebrate."

In fact, Bai Mengwan also knew about the situation at home, and she just complained casually, without any other meaning, but now she felt a little embarrassed when she heard what her sister said, so she cheekily smiled at her sister as an apology, but Bai Junwan saw The younger sister's face was ashen, but she couldn't help "giggling", and then picked up the towel next to her to help her wipe her face.

The two sisters returned to the main hall with the food, and called Qingqing who was playing to have dinner together. However, when Qingqing came running up and down and saw the rice soup and boiled cabbage on the table, she couldn't help showing a disappointed expression on her small face, and looked up. He looked at his mother and aunt, and then whispered, "Mom, when can we eat meat?"

No matter how sensible Qingqing is, after all, she is just a little girl who has just turned five years old. She used to be rich and well-clothed at home, but since the catastrophe at home some time ago, she suffered a lot with her mother and aunt. It can be said that she came from heaven. She fell into hell all of a sudden, and now she finally settled down, but she can only drink rice soup and eat cabbage every day. Even Bai Mengwan, who is already an adult, can't help complaining, let alone a little girl like Qingqing.

Regarding the complaint from her sister just now, Bai Junwan felt quite uncomfortable in her heart. Now she heard that her dependent daughter just wanted to eat meat, but she couldn't satisfy this simple request. This made Bai Junwan's nose sore, and tears welled up In the eye socket, it almost fell off.

However, although Bai Junwan felt uncomfortable, she still held back her tears and comforted her daughter, saying: "Good girl, Qingqing, Chinese New Year is coming soon, when it's Chinese New Year, I will cook meat for you, okay?"

At this time, Qingqing also knew that her words made her mother embarrassed, so she nodded her head in a sensible way and said, "Okay, Qingqing is very good, mother, don't be sad, Qingqing will never eat meat again!"

Hearing her daughter's sensible words, Bai Junwan felt her eyes heat up again, and tears flowed down her beautiful face, but she immediately lowered her head and wiped it with her sleeve, and then stood up with a forced smile to serve Qingqing's rice. Qingqing and her younger sister Bai Mengwan poured the few rice grains into their bowls, but she herself only drank the clear soup on top.

Bai Mengwan has been watching her sister and Qingqing by the side, when she heard Qingqing say that she wants to eat meat, she felt as if a needle had been pricked in her heart, her eye circles were also red, and tears almost fell down.Immediately afterwards, she seemed to remember something, and her face showed a bit of hesitation, but soon her face straightened, and her eyes showed firmness, as if she had made a decision.

During this meal, the Bai sisters didn't speak any more, and even the lively Qingqing just ate with her head down.After the three of them finished eating, Bai Junwan packed up her things and went back to the bedroom, then picked up a piece of embroidery on the table and began to embroider.Speaking of which, although she doesn't know how to cook, she is an excellent female worker. Since she settled in the Zhou Mansion, she has considered how to support her family, but after much deliberation, she can only earn some money by embroidery.

Bai Mengwan disturbed her sister because of a lot of Qingqing, so she hugged her and sat on the bed, and then told Qingqing a story to coax her to sleep, but when Bai Mengwan glanced at her sister's thin shoulders under the light, she couldn't help but feel sore in her heart, regretting herself Why didn't I learn more about female workers back then, otherwise I would be able to help my sister relieve some pressure today.

At the same time, Zhuo'er was mysteriously telling Zhou Zhong about the haunting in the back garden, and she said with a pale face, "I couldn't sleep that night, and it happened that the moon outside was very big, so I stood Looking at the moon from the window, I actually heard a "bang bang" sound from the direction of the back garden, as if someone was knocking on something, it was really scary!"

But Zhou Zhong didn't believe it at all. He patted Bracelet's head with a smile and said, "We are the only people living in the backyard of the mansion. I was not at home at the time. You and your aunt lived together. There's no one else in the backyard, so how could someone knock on something?"

Seeing Zhou Zhong's disbelief, Zhuo'er also said anxiously: "Really, I really heard noises from the garden, but it was too dark and you were not here, so I didn't dare to go see it myself."

Seeing Biao'er's swearing appearance, Zhou Zhong finally believed that Biao'er really heard something strange in the garden, but he still didn't believe it was a ghost, probably some animal made the sound, just because Biao'er was timid, That's why I thought it was a ghost.

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhong couldn't help pinching Bracelet's cute little nose, and comforted him with a smile: "Okay, no matter what is in the garden, now that my brother is back, all the demons and ghosts will be scared to death, nothing can hurt Come to my little bracelet!"

Hearing Zhou Zhong's intimate words, Biao'er also felt very at ease. In her heart, her brother is the protector of the whole family, just like her father before. No matter what difficulties she encounters, as long as her brother is there, she can solve them all.

After comforting Biao'er, Zhou Zhong returned to his yard separated from the back garden by a wall. Although he had been away from home for many days, Biao'er kept coming to help him clean. Housekeeper Xu even lit the fire for him. The room was very quiet. warmth.Zhou Zhong was indeed a little tired from the boat ride, so after washing his feet, he took off his clothes and lay down and fell asleep. However, just as he was fast asleep, he was suddenly awakened by a sound of "呯呯~".
