Steamed buns, go farming with your mother

Chapter 27 Breastfeeding
After trying several times, Su Ho mastered the skill of using the wooden rake proficiently, and he would not get himself covered in grains.

During this period, Pan Sen came back twice, each time carrying two large baskets of millet.The yard is not spacious, except for a small path that goes in and out, only the place where Pan Min'er and the leeks are is a pure land that has not been invaded by millet.

The rest of the millet, which had no place to dry, was piled up in the hall, golden and golden, like two piles of gold.In rural areas, apart from occasionally entertaining guests and offering sacrifices to ancestors, the main house also has to serve as a warehouse during busy farming seasons to store grain that cannot be collected.

The sun is already in the west, and the people who went to the fields have not returned yet.Suho dusted himself off, and sat down near his son.She wanted to pick up Leek and kiss her, but the rice ash all over her body would definitely make Leek's skin red and itchy, so she could only suppress her desire.Coaxing leeks to sleep, teaching Pan Min'er to speak without saying a word.

When half the sun set, Aunt Pan entered the courtyard first, followed by Mrs. Wang, and Yu Yueyue also came back. The three of them all looked tired.

Su Ho quickly stood up, took three chairs from the main room and put them away, and said, "Sit down and rest for a while, I'll get some water!" He turned around and went into the kitchen.Pan Ming's home is considered a wealthy one in Teshuibu, with dozens of acres of land. The house is built with a big tile-roofed house. When you enter the courtyard gate, you are facing the main room. On both sides of the main room are east and west rooms. A side room was built next to the east house, which was used as a kitchen, and a small house was also built not far from the west house, which was divided into two rooms, one was a pigsty and the other was a cattle pen.Su Ho has never visited Pan Ming's home, but after staying for an afternoon, he is always familiar with everything here.

The three nodded and let out a sigh of satisfaction when they sat down on the chair. Mrs. Wang thumped her shoulder and said, "It's been a long time since I've done this kind of work. I'm really old and useless!"

Aunt Pan nodded, feeling sorry for her, and said: "It's old, Yueyue is behind us, and she has caught up with us by cutting a ridge by herself!"

"Your daughter-in-law is quick!" Wang praised.

"Auntie, I'll be proud if you say that, and my mother won't like me if I raise my tail in the future!" Yu Yueyue blushed.

"Your aunt is right, you are indeed a quick wife, and my Pan Sen is a lucky one!" Aunt Pan also joked.

Yu Yueyue refused to obey, she took Wang's hand and acted coquettishly.

When Su Ho came out with the kettle in hand, he saw such a joyful look, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you're ashamed, and she's so old that she's still pulling on my aunt's sleeve to act coquettishly. My leeks don't act coquettishly." ..." She handed the bowl in her hand to the three Wangs.

Yu Yueyue took the bowl and scolded with a smile: "Big sister, you are here to bully me too!"

Su Ho didn't dare to say it straight, and poured water for the three of them. It was boiling water that Yu Yueyue had boiled before, and it had already cooled down by now.After the three of them drank the water, they rested for a while, and the fatigue on their faces subsided a lot.Su Ho took back the three bowls, turned around and went back to the kitchen. After a while, another basin of water came out and said, "Auntie, mother, wash your hands and wipe your face!"

In rural areas, the family usually uses a face-washing handkerchief, and those who are a little more particular will prepare one for the guests when they come to the house. Few people have a face-washing handkerchief for each person.

When the three of them washed their faces and hands, Su Ho asked, "Auntie, why didn't my uncle come back with you, it's getting late."

Aunt Pan and Yu Yueyue asked Mrs. Wang, who was a guest, to wash first. Hearing Su Ho's question, Aunt Pan said: "They still have to work in the field for a while. Let's come back and cook first. When they get home, they will be ready." There are ready-made meals to eat!"

Su Ho let out a cry, looked at Mrs. Wang, and thought that he might have dinner at Pan's house today, but he hadn't eaten anything this afternoon.Just as he was thinking, Leek, who had been sleeping quietly all this time, suddenly started crying. When Su Ho heard it, he knew that Leek was hungry.Mrs. Wang knew it too, raised her head from the washbasin, and said, "He'er, I'm afraid Leek is hungry, you can take him home to nurse him first!" Wiping off the water on his face, he said apologetically, "Sister-in-law, He'er has no milk, and leeks grow up on goat's milk, and now leeks are hungry..." Before he finished speaking, Aunt Pan interrupted: "Big sister, you are still being polite to me! I am a child of leeks! It hurts too!"

"Mom, why don't you let leeks drink my milk!" Yu Yueyue said suddenly, "My sister's house is still a long way from the village, I'm afraid that leeks will starve all the way there!"

Before Su Ho could speak, Aunt Pan clapped her hands and said, "That's a good idea, it just so happens that He Er can stay and have dinner together!"

"This... I'm afraid this is not good! Min'er is still young!" Su Ho hesitated, and Wang Shi also nodded, expressing her agreement.

"There's nothing wrong with it." Aunt Pan said, "My Min'er is weaning herself from breastfeeding recently, big sister, you know it's hard for a woman to get breastfeeding, don't you?"

Yu Yueyue also chimed in, saying: "It's not that I'm helping the girl, it's that the leek is helping me!" Before Su Ho nodded, Yu Yueyue walked over, wanting to pick up the leek.

As soon as she stretched out her hand, she was stopped by Aunt Pan: "Yueyue, go wash your hands first, and change into clean clothes. The skin of a child is tender, so it can't stand your dust and dirt!"

Yu Yueyue stuck out her little tongue, heard the sound of leeks crying, walked into the room quickly, and changed into clean clothes in a short while.Picking up the leeks, he went into the house again.In that era, no bold woman had the courage to show her breasts in public, even if she was breastfeeding a child.After a while, Leek stopped crying energetically, and Su Ho also breathed a sigh of relief.For mothers, children are always the place that most affects their hearts.Seeing that Mrs. Wang and Aunt Pan also breathed a sigh of relief, Su Ho felt warm in his heart.

"Auntie, you've all been tired all day, so leave it to me to make dinner!" Su Ho suggested.

"He'er, Auntie can still do this!" Auntie Pan smiled and refused.

"Auntie means that I'm afraid that I'll screw up, and the cooking won't taste good, right?" Su Ho also smiled: "Don't worry, Auntie, I promise to complete the task!"

Aunt Pan shook her head, and said, "You child, you are really sharp-tongued. I can't say enough to you, so I let you do it. I can help you light the fire, okay!" into the kitchen.

Wang looked at Su Ho and Aunt Pan bickering with a smile, turned around and picked up Pan Min'er, and also went into the kitchen.She just washed her hands and wiped the dust off her body with a handkerchief.

"Auntie, what are you going to cook today, you have to reward the elders well!" Su Ho's tone was so brisk, it made the air in the room much lighter.

Aunt Pan was washing rice, half of cornmeal and half of rice, and answered Suho's question while washing: "Okay, I will listen to you, then make a green spicy bacon, leek scrambled eggs, and a braised eggplant, I saw it last time You seem to like eating beans, how about making fried beans with minced meat?"

Su Ho didn't expect that Aunt Pan's power of observation was so keen. After eating a meal together, she could clearly remember her own preferences. Su Ho knew that this meant truly caring about herself and putting herself in the right place. people at heart.

"Wow Auntie, you are so amazing, you know what people like to eat..." Su Ho concealed the emotion in his heart, and said in a tone of admiration, making Mrs. Wang and Aunt Pan laugh out loud.He kept calling Su Ho a weird person.

Sitting in front of the stove with Min'er in her arms, Wang said to Aunt Pan, "Sister-in-law, you help He'er cook dinner, and I'll light the fire!"

Aunt Pan nodded, got up and went into the east room. After a while, she took out a piece of bacon, handed it to Su Ho, and said, "He'er, this is the meat from the Nianzhu Kang slaughtered years ago. It probably tastes a bit strong. , wash it well...I'll go to the garden to pick some vegetables!" People here call Xun Kang.

Su Ho nodded, took the bacon, and said, "Leave it to me!" Seeing Aunt Pan's figure coming out of the kitchen door, Su Ho said to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, it's pitch black, how can you do it? ah!"

Su Ho really has never made this kind of dark bacon that was kang. In the previous life, although Su Ho had made bacon himself, the bacon was like bacon, without a layer of black smoke stains. Compared with As far as this bacon is concerned, it is much cleaner and more beautiful.

Wang Shi was a little surprised: "You don't know how to do it?"

Su Ho smiled embarrassingly: "It's not that you don't know how to do it, it's because you haven't washed it before?"

Mrs. Wang thought that Su He meant that she had never washed bacon at her mother's house. After all, Su He's sister-in-law was a powerful person, so she said, "It's okay, mother will teach you!" Mrs. Wang boiled a pot of hot water and told Su He to wash it. Hot water should be used for the bacon, and the black layer on the top should be thinly hung up with a knife.

Su Ho did as Wang said, and after a while, a piece of bacon was washed. Under Wang's guidance, Su Ho cut the bacon into thin slices and put them in the pot to cook. According to Wang This is called deodorization.

When Aunt Pan came back, Su Ho had just finished cooking a pot of bacon. He picked it up with chopsticks and looked at it. Su Ho said in amazement: "Mother, look, it's transparent..." The thin meat seemed to be amber-like. Transparent gloss.

"What's so strange about this? All the bacon in our kang is like this!" Aunt Pan said proudly, and took out all the dishes to eat today, and began to choose.Su Ho served the bacon and came over to help.

With the efforts of the two of them, a meal was quickly prepared. In the end, Su Ho also made tomato and egg soup.

As soon as the food was served, Yu Yueyue came out and told Su Ho that she was coaxed to sleep after she was full with leeks.Hearing that his son had fallen asleep, Su Ho was no longer worried.Turning her head, she found that Pan Min'er had also fallen asleep at some point.

Yu Yueyue also saw it, so she took the child from Mrs. Wang's hand, carried her into the house, and probably put it on the bed.When she entered the room, Pan Ming and the others also came back.

Everyone was not polite. After all, they were all hungry after a hard day's work.

Because there were female guests, two tables were divided, Pan Mingji and his son ate in the main room, and Su Ho and the others ate in the kitchen.

After eating, Su Ho and Mrs. Wang went home and made an appointment to come back tomorrow.
