The rural life of a peasant girl

Chapter 54

"You little brat! Dad, Ling'er." After teasing for so long, Su Ho had the time to say hello to Su's father, Su Ling.

"Have you asked for leave? Have you packed your things?" Father Su asked.

"It's already tidied up."

"Then let's go!"

"Let's go!" Su Dong picked up Su Ho, put him on the bullock cart, and pulled Su Ling up as well.

"Are you ready?" Father Su asked.

"Okay." The three of them answered in unison, looked at each other after speaking, and laughed silently.

"Sit still!" Father Su drove the ox cart steadily after finishing speaking.

"He'er, sister taught you how to sing."

The bullock cart wobbled out of the city gate and entered the country road.

"Okay, okay." Su Ho clapped his little hands.

"Walking on the small road in the country, my companion of the returning cow, Lan Tian..." Su Ling sang, Su He also sang, and Su Dong used a bamboo leaf torn off to accompany them both.

On the way home, this bullock cart, the four people in the cart, and a song with a weird tune became the most beautiful scenery on the entire road.

As soon as he arrived home, as soon as the carriage stopped, Su Ho jumped off in a hurry, ran back, and shouted as he ran: "Mother, mother, we are back, and the eldest brother and sister are also back." Mother Su, who was cleaning the yard, immediately rushed over to hug her.

"Okay, mother knows, let's go, let's see if there is anything we need to help with!" He picked up Su Ho and walked out.

The cart piled up on the carriage was used to return gifts when they moved into the new house, most of which were snacks and a few bolts of muslin.

Several people moved a little bit each, and even the little Suho went into the house with a piece of cloth in his arms.

After Su's mother tidied things up, it was getting late, so she made dinner. Seeing that Su's mother was busy by herself, Su Ling also went into the kitchen to help. Little Su Ho also sat on a small bench to help light the fire. .

Su's dinner is very rich, there are stewed pig's feet, white-cut chicken, and roast duck. Su's mother can't wait to serve them all.

"Dong'er, look at you, how skinny you are! Eat more." Put a piece of chicken breast into Su Dong's bowl.

"Thank you ma'am."

"And Ling'er too, I haven't seen you for a few days, why is she so skinny." He gave another piece to Su Ling.

"I'm not as good as my mother said. I've gained weight recently! I don't look fat." I thanked Mother Su again.

"You need to eat more to grow your body."

"Mother is biased, why do you want to hold brother and sister or not me?" Su Ho pouted.

"Mother is not partial, no one can live without our little baby!" Another piece of meat that didn't even have a bone was picked up for Su Ho.

When Su Ho saw that Su's mother also gave her a piece of meat, he immediately grinned, and said sweetly, "Thank you, mother."

Su's mother also said solemnly: "You're welcome. He'er is so polite, this is my mother's sweet baby."

In fact, Su Dong and Su Ling have lost weight!It's just pity for the parents of the world. They can't wait to give the whole world to their children without seeing each other for a few days. Nothing is enough.

"His father, have you discussed with father about the banquet the day after tomorrow?" Su's mother looked at Su's father again. Generally, the Su family's brothers and sisters are not forced to do these things, and it is also to train them to be the masters of the house earlier. Ability.

"As I said, Dad will bring the elder brother and the third younger brother over to help. You and your sister-in-law can just help out in the kitchen." The Su family plans to feast the entire Huaxi Village this time when they move into their new house. They also specially invited two chefs from Tianyue Restaurant to help with the cooking, so Mother Su and the others only need to help.

"That's good! Then Dong'er, Ling'er, and He'er, you three will be responsible for keeping the gift list."

"No problem, rest assured and leave it to me."

"Okay, let's eat quickly! Tomorrow I have to go to the town to buy vegetables, let's call Uncle Li together! Otherwise, you won't be able to pull so much, and Dong'er will follow along to help." Mother Su said again.

"Yes, mother."

After the family enjoyed a sumptuous dinner, they washed and rested. All the family was thinking about moving into a new house the day after tomorrow. It is conceivable that the mood was not generally good. They fell asleep with a smile, and it turned out to be a good night sleepy.

The next morning, Su's father got up early, loaded the car, Su Dong followed suit, and Li Shuzai was waiting outside.

The three of them brought enough silver and hurried to the direction of Qingshi Town.

In the afternoon, they returned with a full load, and the two carts were full of vegetables and meat.

Mother Su called someone from the village to come and help with the cooking. After simple processing, the chef can cook directly tomorrow.

Pork bought a whole pig. Father Su and Uncle Li processed half of the pork and fried it immediately. The beef was hung down the well to keep it fresh. For the live ones, in order to maintain the freshness of the ingredients, they need to be slaughtered before dawn tomorrow.

Mother Su waited for more than an hour to clean up the vegetables and other things that needed to be cleaned up, and then went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for the family and those who came to help.

When people in the village hire people to do errands, they usually just give them a meal, and they don’t talk about money or not, especially between two familiar families.

Su's mother made six dishes, Dongpo pork, and a large piece of deep-fried braised pork. She also slaughtered a chicken. There were also three vegetarian dishes, Chinese cabbage, radish and cauliflower.

The fat and white Dongpo meat was praised by everyone as soon as it was served, and the braised pork was also praised by everyone. Seeing that everyone was eating happily, Su's mother was also very happy.

After a simple dinner, the women stayed behind to help wash the dishes. There is a set of dishes in the village specially used for banquets. Every time someone has a banquet, they will use them, but they have not been used for too long. Difficult to clean up, after washing it now, it can be used tomorrow with a simple rinse.

The crowd gathers firewood, and the flames are high, and the number of people is the strength. The set of hundreds of dishes was washed in a short time. Su's mother distributed the meat left over from the dinner to the helpers to take it home. Several people left in a hurry after thanking them.

Mother Su had been busy working all day, and her back was so tired that she needed to wash and rest. Seeing her distress, Su Ling quickly pulled Mother Su to sit down and gave her a massage.

While enjoying the comfortable massage, Su's mother expressed her feelings, "Mother's Ling'er has really grown up and knows how to love others."

Before dawn the next day, the Su family’s new house was busy with work in the courtyard. Su’s father led a large group of people, those who killed the chickens killed the chickens, those who slaughtered the ducks slaughtered the ducks, and the women continued to clean the dishes. Wash it again.The quick talking, yo-ho, and the last chirping of chickens, ducks and geese before they died were all mixed together, so lively!
