A good wife and a good mother

Chapter 146: To Rescue or Not to Rescue (4)
Mo Dai first grabbed a handful of dried fungus and soaked them in warm water, and then began to wash the rice and cook it in the pot.The spare ribs he bought were chopped, and Mo Dai put them into a pottery pot and washed them with clean water, then poured them into boiling water, scalded them, and fished them out to make sweet and sour spare ribs.There happened to be two pieces of tofu bought in the morning at home, so Mo Dai planned to make red and white tofu with the tofu and the pig's blood she bought.

After the sweet and sour pork ribs and red and white tofu were ready, Mo Dai grabbed a handful of peanuts and put them in a small pot to cook. After cooking, the fungus was almost soaked. Blanch it in boiling water, take it out, cut it into shreds and put it in a clay pot with the cooked peanuts, then add chopped green onion, ginger, garlic and pepper, then put the peppercorns in rapeseed oil to boil and pour over the fungus while it is hot Silk, and finally pour vinegar and mix well.

Modai didn't make any fish, but only scraped off the scales, cut off the internal organs, cleaned them, sprinkled them with fine salt, and preserved them for cooking at night.

Modai didn't cook the soup either, thinking that she would definitely be thirsty when she was harvesting wheat in the field, but unfortunately the lemons she brought before were used up long ago, and now there are only a few green and red hawthorns left at home, so it's too late to boil them at this time I washed a few and cut them into slices and put them in the bamboo tube, add warm water and honey.

After the rice was ready, Mo Dai asked Xu Shaolin, Mo Wuqing and the two little ones to eat first, while she put the rice and vegetables into clay pots, and then put them into bamboo baskets, and brought hawthorns filled with honey Bamboo tubes for water, empty bowls and chopsticks, and then I went to the fields with bamboo baskets to deliver food.

Mo Wuqing looked at Mo Dai's leaving back, and said involuntarily: "Father, there are men delivering meals, and Mo Daxi, a woman, also delivers meals. Doesn't she feel ashamed?"

Xu Shaolin couldn't help but smiled: "This is what our Daxi is good for, you, change your willful temper in the future!"

Mo Wuqing stopped talking and continued to eat sullenly.

When Mo Dai went out, she happened to meet Gongsun Hong, the third minister of Mo Guihua, who was also going to deliver food in the field, and they went together.

As soon as Sun Hong met Mo Dai, he smelled the aroma of the food in her bamboo basket, thinking that the food she prepared must be very rich, and then looked at the dozen or so buns and a bowl of vinegar-soaked radishes in his bamboo basket. dry, and a bowl of two eggs that he gritted his teeth and was willing to fry with green peppers, he felt a little sad.

However, soon Sun Hong's heart was balanced, because he met a few villagers who delivered food on the way, and he found that the food delivered by those people was not as good as his own. Cut into thin strips and soaked in vinegar, and they were willing to scramble two eggs, but those people only served cold steamed buns with large pieces of dried radish.

The villagers who came to deliver the food naturally also smelled the fragrance of the food in Mo Dai's basket, and they were not as tolerant as Sun Hong, so they asked Mo Dai directly: "Daxi, what kind of food did you send to Wu Yun and Wu Feng? It smells weird!"

Mo Dai didn't hide it, and directly lifted the cover of a clay pot to let those people see.So when they saw the pot of sweet and sour pork ribs with an attractive red color and an incomparable fragrance, all the people watching couldn't help swallowing their saliva, and at the same time envied and hated in their hearts: My father, this Mo Daxi really dotes on her husband-in-law so much, there is a big pot of pork ribs, pork ribs, and other unopened dishes, maybe it's braised pork or something!

Sun Hong couldn't help swallowing, he knew that Mo Daxi was willing to buy meat for his family, including their family also ate a lot of meat from her family, although he was very envious of Mo Daxi's kindness to the three Mo Wuyun brothers , but fortunately his wife, Mo Guihua, treated the three brothers well, so he was content.

Soon, there were only Mo Dai and Sun Hong left, because their fields were in the far east.Sun Hong arrived at the field first, Mo Dai stopped and asked Sun Hong to bring an empty bowl, Sun Hong was still a little puzzled at first, when Mo Dai lifted up the vegetables in her basket, put some of each into the bowl and handed it to him , Sun Hong's hands suddenly trembled, and he refused.

Modai smiled and said, "This is for your three cats. Today they helped me bring my friends to work in the field. This is the reward they deserve!"

Sun Hong knew that Mo Dai said this to make him accept the bowl of food without any suspicion, and he finally accepted it.When Mo Guihua, Sun Xi and Sun Yang saw the bowl of food brought by Sun Hong, they sighed and felt grateful again.At this time, the three cats ran to meet their parents while gnawing on a piece of spare ribs.

Mo Dai arrived at the end of the field, cleared a clean space under a big tree, and then called Mo Wuyun, Mo Wufeng and Xiao Xiao, who were still busy harvesting wheat in the field, to come over for dinner.

As soon as the food was set out, Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng were stunned, while Xiao Xiao whistled briskly, and praised: "Daxi, you are so kind, you know I'm here to help, so you do this Lots of dishes!"

"Yes, I really appreciate you coming to help!" Mo Dai smiled and took out four empty bowls and four pairs of chopsticks, then opened the bamboo tubes containing water, and poured out half a bowl for each of them. Drink some water."

Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng sipped honey and hawthorn water, while Xiao Xiao drank the cow's drink in one gulp, and handed the bowl to Mo Dai: "It's sweet and sour, it's so delicious!" Mo Dai took the bowl , filled a bowl of white rice for Xiao Xiao, and heard her exclaim, "White rice, Daxi, you are so willing!"

When the food was in the mouth, Xiao Xiao's mouth couldn't stop, and he praised it while eating, so that Mo Dai couldn't help but want to stick her mouth with paste, this is a typical example of being unable to stop her mouth after eating.

Because of Xiao Xiao's joining, Mo Daxi's five acres of wheat went to more than three acres in one day, and Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng reckoned that they could solve the rest in the first half of tomorrow.

When Xiao Xiao went back, Mo Dai gave her a hen, saying that she would take it back and kill it to eat, but Xiao Xiao couldn't shirk it and had to take it with her, so on the way back, the hen that had just recovered The chicken was shaken to death by Xiao Xiao again.

In the evening, Mo Dai boiled a bath of hot water, and asked Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng, who were tired all day, to take a bath first, so as to relieve fatigue.

Dinner is also white rice, and the dishes are steamed fish, steamed meatballs, and mushrooms and green vegetables.

The two little ones like to eat fish and meatballs, but don't eat mushrooms and small green vegetables very much. However, when Mo Dai put the small green vegetables and mushrooms into their bowls, although they wrinkled their little faces, they would still be happy. eat it.

Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng ate these delicious dishes, remembering the day when they came back from the bullock cart with Mo Daxi, when they said they would go to work in the fields, Mo Daxi said at that time that she would prepare them at home Giving them food, now that she has really fulfilled her promise, it is impossible to say that she is not moved, but at the same time she is moved and feels a little uneasy in her heart. As for the uneasiness, they can't explain clearly.

The next day, when Mo Dai arrived at Fumantang, Fang Ling's carriage was already waiting at the door.

After Fang Ling sent Mo Dai to Shi's residence, he left without going in to visit Shi Lan, and asked Mo Dai not to mention that she sent her here.This Shi Lan's self-willedness has reached its peak. If she knows that Fang Ling sent Mo Daxi here, rather than Mo Daxi who sensed that she was dying, then maybe she will hunt for death and make trouble for everyone in the Shi residence. None of them can live in peace.
