The life of a peasant girl reborn

Chapter 3
At home, Mrs. Zhou took the wild vegetables and pheasant to the kitchen, and offered a fatter pheasant to Shen Xuan, "Xuan girl, send this pheasant to your grandma, and mother will cook for you now. After a while, your father and elder brother will send it from the field."

Shen Xuan carried the pheasant and walked to the uncle's house. The eldest of the Shen family lived in the Shen family's old house at the west end of the village, and the second son of the Shen family lived at the east end of the village. The two families were far away.

"Grandpa. Grandma. Uncle. Madam, are you home?" Shen Xuan yelled as she walked towards the courtyard through the courtyard wall. The Shen family's old house is still the best in the whole village, after all, it is Lizheng's residence.Due to proper repairs and protection, the entire mansion is not old. The main room is the house of the elders of the Shen family, the east wing is the house of the aunt and uncle, and there are three small houses next to it for the three cousins, and the west wing is the house of the unmarried young Uncle's house.Walking into the courtyard, the farm tools are placed next to the courtyard wall, and the cleanliness of the sister-in-law in the entire courtyard shows that Mrs. Zhang is a hardworking person.

"Xuan girl, here you come." Mrs. Zhang ushered her out from the kitchen, "Your grandma and uncle. Uncle has not come back from the field yet. I'm preparing to make lunch!"

"Ma'am, my mother and I went to the mountains to catch two pheasants today, and my mother asked me to send one." Shen Xuan gave the pheasant to Mrs. Zhang.

"Hey, your body is just right, why don't you let your mother stew it and make up for it."

"Ma'am, I'm ready, let's go on, I have to go home for dinner!"

"Okay, then the aunt will continue, and it happens to add food to your grandma at noon." Mrs. Zhang took the pheasant casually.

"Ma'am, hurry up and cook, I'm leaving." Shen Xuan turned and walked out of the courtyard.

"Slow down, come and play with your cousin when you have time."

Shen Xuan was on the way back, smelling the scent from the nearby farms, and hurried home.This time, my father and elder brother have already returned home. Mother should have prepared lunch. Thinking of the pheasant and mushroom soup, Shen Xuan showed a happy and satisfied smile.

"Mother, this chicken is really delicious." Shen Chaoqiu held up his chopsticks and said happily.

"Brother Qiu likes to eat it. This is the pheasant that your sister worked so hard to catch." Mrs. Zhou gently wiped the oil stains from the corners of Shen Chaoqiu's mouth with a handkerchief.

"Well, my sister is so good. Next time my brother is taking you to catch chickens in the mountains, my brother is also very good." Shen Chaoqiu waved his small arms.

"Father, you're tired from working all morning. Eat more chicken and drink some mushroom soup to make up for it." Shen Xuan took a piece of chicken for her father. After getting along with her for a few days, Shen Xuan found that she Dad is a typical rural man. He tends the family's land all day long and rarely talks, but he always looks at the child lovingly every time he eats. However, the mother in the family is not like a village woman, so she just holds a handkerchief Speaking of people, there are very few people in the countryside who carry handkerchiefs, and their words and deeds seem to have been specially trained.

After the warm lunch, Shen Xuan obediently helped Mrs. Zhou clean up the dishes and wash the dishes.After a short rest, the old man went to the field with the farm tools again, and Mrs. Zhou took out a bag of peanuts to peel and prepare for sowing.Shen Chaoqiu saw that his younger sister was helping his mother with the work at home, so it was rare that he didn't go out to have fun and work with Mrs. Zhou.

"Mother, brother is 7 years old, can he go to town to study?" Shen Xuan really does not want her smart brother to be illiterate when he grows up, besides, he will definitely need manpower to develop agriculture, the seeds of space can only be found in Germination in space is convenient for transplanting, but it cannot bear fruit and harvest.

"Well, mother is going to let your father go to the town when he has time to ask about the situation of the specific gentleman. The academy will also recruit students in July in summer." Zhou discovered that since her daughter recovered from the fever, She suddenly grew up a lot, and sometimes she looked more sensible than brother Qiu. After more than a month of getting along, Zhou has become accustomed to the way the two of them get along.

"Mother, can I really go to study?" Shen Chaoqiu's bright eyes were wide open because of excitement, sparkling.

"Well, is Brother Qiu happy?"

"Happy, mother, I will definitely study hard and become a high-ranking official in the future to take care of my sister and parents." The resounding promise was spread in the small farmyard at this moment.

"Brother, you have to be the No. [-] Scholar to be majestic, and you can ride a tall horse on the street." Shen Xuan joked about Xiao BuDian.

"Yes, I want to ride a big horse, majestic." The villain promised.

"Okay, if this is not the case, you'll be happy. Don't be lazy, seeing that your sister peels more peanuts and eats them stealthily." Mrs. Zhou "rebuked" Brother Qiu.

"Mother, let's make vinegar peanuts at night. Dad is tired after a day's work, so let's make it as a side dish for dad." Looking at the round peanuts, Shen Xuan thought of a dish suitable for all ages.

"Old vinegar peanuts, why hasn't mother heard of it?" Zhou looked at Shen Xuan with puzzled and puzzled eyes, wondering how her 5-year-old daughter could cook dishes she hadn't eaten before.

Shen Xuan was worried that Mrs. Zhou would be betrayed if she watched it. She couldn't tell Mrs. Zhou that she was not her daughter, but a dead body. In this feudal countryside, she was waiting to be burned to death as a monster, "Mother, I am Once when I was walking in the village, I heard someone who had eaten it, so I wrote it down, or I will make it at night, and let my mother and father taste it, I heard it is delicious."

Looking at the two greedy and drooling faces in front of her, Mrs. Zhou happily let it go, "Okay, then you can cook this dish, and the other mothers can cook it by themselves. You are still young, so you can't be tired."

About two hours later, watching the sun gradually set, Mrs. Zhou put the peanuts aside to prepare dinner.Brother Qiu immediately ran outside the yard to play with the children. Shen Xuan took a small bowl of peeled peanuts and brought them to the kitchen. Seeing the onions in the corner, she picked one and peeled it.Shen Xuan was overjoyed when she saw onions for the first time. She never thought that there would be onions in this backward dynasty.

Shen Xuan stood beside the pot and lit the fire decently.Put the oil, wait until the pot is heated, pour the peanuts into the pot, stir-fry slowly, wait until the peanut skin changes color, and immediately put it into a bowl with a spoon; use two spoons of old vinegar. Make a sauce with 1 spoon of sugar; chop the onion and a few green peppers and put them in a bowl;

"Mom, what delicious food did you make? It smells so good." Brother Qiu, who was playing in the yard, ran home, sweat beaded on his forehead because of crazy playing.

"You know how to play like crazy when you're so old, hurry up and wipe your sweat in the room, you will suffer when you catch a cold later." Brother Qiu obediently ran into the room to wipe his sweat.

"Mother, try it, is it delicious?" Shen Xuan was worried that the cooking would not taste good, so Zhou took a few bites with chopsticks, the peanuts were crispy and left a mouthful.A little sour in the mouth.hot.Sweet and other flavors, mixed together are refreshing and crisp, "Well, your peanuts are delicious. It's fine to make appetizers for your father. I think your father will be able to drink to his heart's content today." Zhou also knows that other than children in the family Ma'am, the head of the family can't find anyone to drink during the busy farming season, but now the head of the house can definitely drink well to relieve fatigue when they have appetizers.
