reborn child bride

Chapter 5 Tooth Sacrifice ([-])

"I go."

Aunt Wei glanced at her, "You? You are a woman, how can you take off your shoes and socks in public. People can see that your feet are not good."

Shen Ji was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "I'll go when no one is around." Many people were working in the fields, and besides, she didn't mind being seen with her feet.Moreover, Mrs. Wei, we are already so poor, why should we pay so much attention to it.

She has always felt that Aunt Wei did not seem to have grown up in this rural area.Although there are many rules now, the village is still not so strict.

"Auntie, medicine is not as good as food. The young master has drunk so much medicine that his appetite has long been lost. He eats eggs every day, and he swallows with his neck stuck. I feel bad for him. You have to take medicine, but you can't eat. You have to eat well." Only by talking about Wei Ying can Aunt Wei agree.

Aunt Wei thought about it for a while, then said hesitantly, "Do you know how to fish? Are you good at water?"

Shen Ji patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, ma'am, I'm good at swimming. Just let me try it."

"Okay then, if you can't, you'll come back."

"Ah."

Shen Ji searched at home and found a bamboo pan and a large urn.

Shen Ji took his things and went to the creek.She patted her chest in front of Aunt Wei and said that the water is ripe and she can touch fish.In fact, when I was a child, I went back to my hometown in the countryside and went to the ditch with my cousins.And, see more, do less.If you really want to touch it, you can't touch it. You can only watch the fish, and take a dustpan to net.

Stepping into the creek, and the wind blowing again, Shen Ji couldn't help saying "It's so cold".These days, she found that this new body was particularly afraid of the cold.After walking a few gentle places, I didn't see any fish.The first time you come out, you can't return without success.Otherwise, Aunt Wei will only think that she is talking big, and it will be difficult to believe herself in the future.

Shen Ji had no choice but to search for a suitable place with his things. After walking for half an hour, he finally found a place that was relatively wide, with a lot of rocks in the water.I once heard my cousin say that such a place is easy to gather fish.

Shen Ji helped the stone to take off his shoes and socks, rolled up his trouser legs, and got into the water with a dustpan.She held the dustpan in both hands and stared intently at the surface of the water.At this moment, the sun has also gone down, and there are no people around, just in time to move.

Shen Ji waited for a while, and finally saw two small fish swimming towards her. She sank the pan into the water, and when the two small fish swam in, she lifted up the pan, and the fish was taken out. water surface.Water leaked through the gaps in the dustpan, and the fish jumped on it.Having won the first battle, Shen Ji cheerfully went ashore with a dustpan, and poured the fish into a urn filled with water.When the fish reached the urn, they continued to swim around again.It's a little small, so it can only be eaten by frying. It's crunchy and delicious.

Shen Ji jumped into the water happily again and continued to wait.

This place is indeed a good place, within half an hour she caught two more small crucian carp three inches long.After waiting for a while, three small fish came, slightly bigger than the first two.

Looking at the sky, it was time to go back, so he went ashore to dry his feet, put on shoes and socks, tied a dustpan to his waist, and walked back with a big urn in his hands.Who knew that the big urn was easy to carry when it was empty, but it was really heavy when filled with water, and the water would bounce out again when walking.So I stopped and stopped all the way, and it took longer than when I came to go back.

From afar, he could see the smoke curling up everywhere in the village, and Shen Ji suddenly felt a sense of belonging at home.Immediately, he quickened his pace and walked towards Wei's house.She has also been in and out of the village several times recently, so everyone in the village recognizes her.She wanted to live here for a long time, and the smiling uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters yelled and got a kind response.

Immediately walked there, looked up and saw Aunt Wei standing at the bamboo fence and looking at herself.

Shen Ji said loudly: "Ma'am, I'm back."

"Did you really get the fish?"

"Well, yes. Don't worry, ma'am, no one saw me go into the water. I walked far. These two crucian carp are for the young master to make radish crucian carp soup. Let's fry these five small fish and eat them?"

It takes oil to fry it, so Shen Ji had to apply to Aunt Wei.Aunt Wei looked at her with a flattering smile, thinking about how difficult it was for the child, she nodded, "You have to keep the used oil, and don't pour too much."

"okay."

Shen Ji went into the kitchen and shredded radishes swiftly. Aunt Wei looked at it, but she really seemed to know how to cook.Just now she was a little worried that Shen Ji might not come back, and regretted letting her go.But Yinger said she would come back.Sure enough, the man came back.

Shen Ji made a crucian carp soup with shredded radish, fried the small fish with crucian carp oil, and finally fried a shredded radish with it.

From Shen Ji's point of view, using oil like this is extremely economical, but from Aunt Wei's disapproving eyes, she still feels that Shen Ji is too wasteful.Especially the practice of frying shredded radish with oil.It's just that her attention was attracted by the milky white fish soup tumbling on the small stove just now, and Shen Ji has already fried the dishes quickly.

"Auntie, you can eat. I'll bring in the fish soup and food for the young master." Shen Ji stuck out her tongue secretly and stir-fried without oil. She really couldn't get used to it.

"In the future, don't use lard for cooking, it's too wasteful."

"Oh." What else should I use the oil that has fried the fish twice?
Wei Ying was pleasantly surprised when he saw the milky white fish soup, "You actually touched the fish. That's great! Unlike me, it's useless." On weekdays, his mother always said that he was going to test for fame, Don't worry about these little things like making a living.Even when he used to write letters for others, she felt that it was delaying her reading time.So he could only do it behind her back, and then secretly put the copper coins he got into the money jar.

But this time, when I fell ill, I had to delay more homework, and I couldn't go to private school anymore.Moreover, there has been no improvement, but a lot of money has been spent on medicine.Even the savings of these years will be used up.

Seeing Wei Ying's annoyance, Shen Ji thought to himself: You should get better soon, otherwise it would be too expensive just to take medicine.Aunt Wei worked hard for a month to embroider five hundred wen, which is only enough for you to pay for medicine.If this continues, I may really be sold to save money for your medicine.

"Master, the most important thing for you now is to get well soon."

"This, I can't help it."

Shen Ji set up a small table in front of Wei Ying, and then put the food and fish soup on it, "It is inconvenient to extend the medicine in the countryside, but we can work hard from our own side. You see, there are very few people doing farm work in the village Get sick. Because they are always working. If the young master is lying down all day, good people will probably become sick."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Aunt Wei's voice came from the door.She tried it just now, and the dishes fried by Shen Ji with oil are much more delicious than those made by her.So he came in to see how Wei Ying was eating, and heard Shen Ji talking.

Shen Ji didn't dare to say any more, at least not in front of Aunt Wei.She loves her son more than anything.On the contrary, Wei Ying looked at her, thought for a while and said, "Mother, I think what she said makes sense. Sister Ji, go ahead."
