The peasant daughter of the crossing

Chapter 81

Ruhua put the rice into the pot, picked up some relatively large potatoes, and prepared to peel them. In the evening, she fried a plate of shredded potatoes, plus a braised eggplant, which can be said to be hearty.But when Ruhua was picking up potatoes, she suddenly remembered that potatoes can also be roasted over fire!It is to pick a few larger potatoes and prepare to bake them.

Who told her to be greedy!

"Sanlang bake these potatoes." Although Ruhua is greedy, she doesn't know how to do it herself. She believes that if she is asked to bake these potatoes tonight, she will definitely not have to eat them, so this job I can only leave it to Saburo.

"Oh! That's right! Eat baked potatoes!" Xiao Bao was very excited when he heard this, jumping up and down and clapping his hands.

Saburo took the potatoes and took out a pile of ashes from the stove, then put the potatoes in the small hole he just took out, and then buried the ashes again to complete it.Don't dare to bake this baked potato with an open fire, otherwise it would be inedible. If you think about a potato that is baked black, who would dare to swallow it!

"Okay!" Saburo raised his head and said to the two of them.Ruhua saw that Saburo had done it, and now she had to wait, so she took the potatoes in the basin to wash them. After washing the potatoes, Ruhua just put the potatoes on the cutting board and started to cut them into shreds.

Recalling that at that time, in order to have a good meal of potato shreds, she practiced a lot of knife skills. I remember that at that time, the potato shreds were often cut wide and thick, and sometimes they were put in the pot. They are all ripe, but some are still raw.After practicing for a period of time, Ruhua's knife skills were finally able to show her hands.

You can see that Ruhua's knife skill is able to know what level she has mastered now.Anyway, Saburo is a person with little culture, and he can't find words to describe Ruhua's knife skills. He just saw Ruhua's hands keep moving, even the speed of the knife is not so fast!A potato is often shredded in the blink of an eye.

"Ruhua, you are so amazing!" Sanlang couldn't help sighing as he watched.And that child, Xiaobao, also felt that his mother was so kind.

Seeing that both father and son were looking at her stupidly, Ruhua smiled sheepishly and continued with the work in hand. After a while, the shredded potatoes to be used tonight had already been cut.

At this moment, Xiaobao also became anxious, and asked Sanlang there, "Daddy, Daddy, are the potatoes good?" or, "Daddy, Daddy, the potatoes must be ripe, hurry up and take them out to see." Take a look, it won’t taste good after a long time.”

Therefore, Saburo took out Xiaobao and looked at it. Xiaobao was really not familiar with it, so he was willing to give up.At this time, the rice in the pot is also cooked.Ruhua is ready to start frying shredded potatoes.The shredded potatoes won't last long, but Ruhua still has to cut the eggplants, so after Ruhua pours the shredded potatoes into the pot, she asks Sanlang to pay attention to what's in the pot, and then she starts cutting the eggplants.After the potato shreds are cut, the eggplant is ready, and Ruhua is in charge of cooking the eggplant herself, and starts to braise the eggplant.

Ruhua's movements were also fast, and she was ready to eat in a short while.Now Xiaobao is anxious again, because he is still thinking about the potatoes in the stove!Saburo originally planned to roast for a little longer, but Xiaobao was in such a hurry that he had no choice but to take out a smaller one for Xiaobao first.

The potatoes just taken out from the stove were still hot, but Xiao Bao didn't dare to hold them in his hands, so he just patted the ashes on them and put them on the small stool to watch.Ruhua looked at Xiaobao's appearance, as if the rice was really not as good as potatoes.But she also knew that the child just wanted to eat something fresh, and if he was really told to eat it, he would definitely not be able to eat much.

"Xiaobao, eat some rice first, and eat potatoes later, okay?" Ruhua scooped up rice for Xiaobao, placed it in front of Xiaobao, and coaxed.

"But, mother, Xiaobao wants to eat baked potatoes!" Xiaobao looked at her pitifully with big eyes.

Why!Ruhua was the most disadvantaged by Xiaobao's appearance, so she turned her head and said to Sanlang, "Sanlang quickly peel the potatoes for Xiaobao!"

Sanlang has already started eating, and when he heard Ruhua's words, he had to put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, picked up the potatoes and began to peel them. It might be hot at the beginning, but Sanlang kept changing hands. When Sanlang peeled and played with the skins, he would Simply put it in Xiaobao's bowl, "Eat it!"

Only then did Xiaobao laugh happily, and started to eat with his rice bowl in hand.Seeing Xiaobao's joy, Ruhua asked, "Is Xiaobao really that delicious? Look at what you eat and laugh like this."

"Mmm! It's delicious!" Xiaobao took another two mouthfuls of rice before raising his head, with his mouth still full of rice, he said, "Mother, come and have some too!"

"Mother won't eat, you eat first, and mother will eat from the stove later." Ruhua smiled happily when she saw Xiaobao eating happily.

The three of them ate and played, washed the dishes, and seeing that it was still early, Saburo just moved a few wooden boards, put a few benches, and built a simple bed in the yard.In order to lie on it more comfortably, Saburo took the quilt and threw it under it.

After a simple wash, the three of them lay down on the plank to rest.

There was a torrential rain today, and the temperature dropped a little. Lying in the yard, I can feel the coolness of the breeze.It may also be raining, but the sky is so clear tonight that even the stars seem to twinkle like that.

"Mother, mother, what kind of star is that? How come it looks like a spoon!" The three of them lay flat on the wooden board, and Xiaobao, who was sleeping in the middle, stretched out his little finger to point to the other side, and the other The little hand is pulling the flowery clothes and shaking them vigorously.

Ru Hua knows what star Xiao Bao is talking about even without looking at the stars, but for some reason, when she looks in the direction Xiao Bao's little finger is pointing at, something unknown fluctuates in her heart.

"Xiaobao, that's the Big Dipper! Did you see a very bright star not far from it?"

"That's right! That's right! Mother, look, it's there!" After finding it, Xiaobao excitedly pulled Ruhua and shook her.
