Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 110 The Vegetables Are Not Fresh
The fire on the kitchen stove was still burning, so there were no oil lamps. The Liu family always did this in order to save lamp oil.When Liu Ya came in, she felt a little uncomfortable, she touched the edge of the table to find the flint to polish, and lit the oil lamp.Only then did she suddenly realize that Liu Xu'er was sitting on a small bench beside her, looking up at herself.

"Eldest sister, you are here." Liu Ya patted her chest, really frightened.She didn't know if it was because she was living a more stable life now, and her vigilance in this house was not as high as before, which made Liu Xu'er sitting not far from her, but she didn't even notice it.

"Scared you?" Liu Xu'er asked, with a strange expression on her face.

"No, I didn't know you were here either." Liu Ya didn't pay attention to Liu Xu'er's expression, but thought that the anger from yesterday was still there.This is how a little girl gets awkward, Liu Ya doesn't want to mind, she will probably be fine in a few days.Or show her the fabric you bought, that's fine.

Liu Ya just lowered her head to look for food. She remembered hearing Liu Xuer tell her father that she asked her father for money to buy food when she was going out.But Liu Ya didn't even eat any food in the morning, and she didn't know if Liu Xu'er bought it.

While looking down for the vegetable basket, Liu Ya suddenly heard Liu Xu'er sneer.

Liu Ya was startled, thinking that she had heard wrong.Looking up again, Liu Xu'er stood up, with a displeased face, and muttered in a low voice: "Don't do anything wrong, what are you afraid of." After speaking, Liu Xu'er went out.

Sorry?Liu Ya was even more confused.She wasn't at home all day, but she didn't offend Liu Xu'er.But listening to Liu Xu'er's words, it was aimed at herself.

Puzzled, Liu Ya took out the vegetable basket, and there were indeed small cabbages in it, as well as half a Chinese cabbage, a few eggplants, and two potatoes.

At this time, it was too late to do anything else, Liu Ya opened the pot to see, what was cooked on the big stove was stewed potatoes with cabbage.Looking at the dishes, you can tell that they are made by Liu Xu'er. They don't look very good, and the taste is probably just average.

Liu Ya is not picky about food, nor does she intend to dislike her.It's just that I promised to make shredded pork cabbage for Xiao Shu'er just now, so I opened the minced meat wrapped in lotus leaves, picked out large pieces of meat, took them out and cut them into shredded pork, and then went to pick the cabbage.

It was only when I picked out the cabbages one by one that I realized that these cabbages were not very fresh, the leaves were yellow and wilted, and some of them had rotten hearts.

Then look at the Chinese cabbage and eggplant in the vegetable basket. Chinese cabbage is an ordinary dish and easy to place, so I can't see anything.But the eggplants don't look so good, there are spots on two eggplants.And the size of the potatoes is also small, as if they were not opened.She wouldn't even want such a dish for Liu Ya.

Liu Ya frowned, thinking that this is not a dish sold by Aunt Li's house, right?Every time Liu Ya went to Aunt Li's house to buy vegetables, the vegetables in her house were freshly picked from the field, so fresh.But these little cabbages in front of me have been picked for at least two days, and they will be disappointed if they are not stored well.

Liu Ya was confused, afraid that Liu Xu'er went out to ask for bad food from other people's house again?But if you have the heart to ask, tell her that no matter if it is a gift from someone else or she bought it, she will not want it in the future.But thinking about Liu Xu'er's attitude just now, Liu Ya stopped again.

Now Liu Xu'er is not happy, if she asks like this, it will inevitably cause another quarrel.How can sisters really tell the difference between right and wrong?Anyway, both Dad and Xiao Shuer are happy today, so forget about it.

Thinking of this, Liu Ya took a deep breath and suppressed the unhappiness in her heart.I only picked up the fresh and tender cabbage heart, washed it several times with clean water, and it looked bright. Then I put the shredded pork in the pan and fried it, then put the cabbage in the oil, chopped some garlic and put it in Sprinkle in the pot, out of the pot.

Immediately, the aroma of shredded pork and cabbage came out.Xiao Shu'er ran in smelling the fragrance, and asked with a smile, "Second Sister, why do you make it so delicious? You did it so quickly, so I just put the small kang table in Dad's room on it and wiped it clean. Just get all the dishes out of the pan.”

With that said, Xiao Shu'er came to serve the dishes.With a second thought in Liu Ya's mind, she gently pulled Xiao Shu'er, and asked her in a low voice, "Why is eldest sister unhappy? Are you still angry with me?"

"Elder Sister?" Xiao Shu'er heard Liu Ya's question, glanced at the door, then shook her head and said, "I don't know, it was pretty good before."

"Then eldest sister, did you go out to buy this food, or who gave it to you?" Liu Ya asked this because she wanted to know, did Liu Xu'er meet someone when she went out to buy food?If people outside really bullied her, Liu Ya would not stand by and watch.

No matter how noisy the family is behind closed doors, it is their own business.But if outsiders dared to bully Liu Xu'er, she, Liu Ya, would be the first one who would not agree.

Xiao Shu'er replied: "Eldest sister went out to buy it. But when I came back from selling water, she had already bought the vegetables. What's the matter, second sister, is this food not good?" Asking, Xiao Shu'er looked down at the ground, and looked It came to those bad vegetable leaves that Liu Ya threw away after picking the vegetables just now.

Xiao Shu'er was surprised and said: "Ah, why is this dish still rotten? It's still rotten. Is it so bad? Where did the eldest sister buy it?"

"It's okay, isn't this all fried, eat yours." Liu Ya held Xiao Shu'er and told him to stop shouting.Then he turned around and served stewed potatoes with cabbage.

The rice is also stewed, served in a basin, soft and fragrant, very attractive.

Liu Ya and Xiao Shu'er took the food and went to Liu Dacheng's room, and saw Liu Xu'er was already there.Sitting on the edge of the kang, he asked Liu Dacheng, "Father, you really don't count? Ya'er's brain is just right. What if she made a mistake or miscalculated? Besides, you just took it like this." , there is no specific number, as much as she said, what if she said too much?"

Liu Dacheng said: "What's the count, the whole family can still be wrong. Ya'er is not that kind of person, she will come and pay me one by one, what else can she do to me? If she has that kind of thought, take the money to herself Put it inside, and it’s convenient to spend it.”

"Father, you're just looking towards her. It's always been like this, you're biased." Liu Xu'er said, and suddenly saw Liu Ya and Xiao Shu'er coming in.Only then did he shut up resentfully, move aside, and get out of the way of the Kang table, so that the two of them can put the dishes and chopsticks.

Xiao Shu'er has been unhappy since listening to Liu Xu'er talking.At this moment, he put the bowls and chopsticks in his hand on the table, and asked, "Sister, where did you buy your vegetables? There are so many rotten and wilted ones."

"Why, don't you think it's not good? I bought it at Sister Qiuhong's house. Her food is cheap, and two catties of cabbage is only five yuan for me. It's not like Aunt Li's house, where a catty of vegetables costs four yuan, which is really expensive. "

After speaking, Liu Xu'er took another look at Liu Ya.
