Hard work

Chapter 103 An Yi

Although he already felt that he had to take time to go back to his home, but Gaihua's thoughts were different from Lan Hua'er, he felt that there was no need to rush to his home like this.

What he cared about was what the four grandparents said before, about helping the grandpa and grandma's spiritual seats back.

But Gaihua is finally a sober person, and he said to Lan Huaer worriedly:
"At the other end of my house, I have always disliked my mother. You and Goudan were young at the time and didn't know anything about it. Grandpa... When it was not good, my mother once took me to my house, as if to ask for a favor for Grandpa. Thin straw mats. My family... I can’t forget those. Grandpa had given up the idea of ​​going back to my family before leaving. But my mother always said that my grandpa and my family had trouble because of her. It's so stiff, if there is a chance, I always want Grandpa to go back. It's not busy, so let's go back when the busy farming season is over, and it's almost the end of the year."

These words were naturally spoken behind Goudan's back.Although he has learned a lot in the private school in the town, Gai Hua and Lan Hua'er still treat him as a younger brother, and these depressing things are said behind his back.

Lan Hua'er was originally unwilling to go to my family.

She thought she was going directly to my family before, and she was a little depressed.

Now I suddenly know that I don't need to go to my family for the time being, so I am happy.She calculated that there was still half a year in the middle, when she was peacefully planting her fields in the village, and then went outside to cause trouble, everyone would forget the gossip about her before.

Maybe she didn't contact Honghuabai for a long time, and they all almost forgot that there was such a thing.

Thinking about it this way, Lan Huaer felt that the daily sunshine was very lovely.

Zang Lang is naturally not affected by these things.

If Gaihua and Lan Huaer deliberately discussed these matters behind Goudan's back so as not to make Goudan feel uncomfortable, then Zang Lang had nothing to do with these things at all.Even if he listened, he didn't care at all.

It's just that if Lan Hua'er is unhappy, he will follow suit; as long as Lan Hua'er is happy, he will be very energetic in everything he does.

Gaihua and Goudan had an exceptionally short time to go home this time.Changed the story, saying that the business in the Escort is getting better and better.

Some time ago, I didn't know what happened. The army on Dajin's side was often restless, and even the caravan brought there felt threatened.It stands to reason that if the army on Dajin's side is active, then the local bandits should have some scruples.But I don't know what special circumstances happened. Da Jin's army did not protect the caravan that Dayin drove past, but drove the local bandits to flee in all directions, and even often attacked travelers.

They ate this food, and they couldn't say that because the army and bandits over there were particularly active, they would no longer send goods there.Therefore, even some very well-connected merchants who would never go to bodyguards in the bodyguards before would come to their bodyguards for help.

"Escort masters are not enough," Gaihua said, "Even people like me often run outside. I am really busy, so I finally came back. There will be another escort in two days, so I have to rush back to deliver it." .”

When Lan Huaer heard this, she immediately became worried.

Sending more darts can make more money, which is naturally a good thing, but if the situation on Dajin's side is not good, it is definitely not something that people can rest assured.

She knew she couldn't persuade her, so she could only pull on Gaihua's sleeve and say:
"Brother, you have to be more careful. It's not like there's chaos over there, so you won't rely on the Escort like this. But you have to see everything clearly, don't get hurt."

Gaihua grinned and said to her:
"It doesn't matter. Our boss is a powerful one. As long as the banner of our bodyguard is planted, don't use a knife."

When Lan Hua'er was told in this way, he remembered the boss who was often praised by Gai Hua.The owner's name is Aoli, and it is said that he is not a famous person.

She also asked Zang Lang specifically, but Zang Lang still shook his head, saying that he had never heard of this name.Even this surname is not a popular surname in Dayin, and there has never been any unlucky character.

Lan Hua'er was a little disappointed.She also thought that Zang Lang had been working with Chu Jiangkai all the time, so she should have known some great people to know the identity of Gaihua's boss.Unexpectedly, Zang Lang also said that he had never heard of it.

She herself is a time traveler, and she doesn't know much about Dayin.The only one I know is called Aobai, and the characters are still different.

But since Gaihua said this, she relaxed a little bit.

Gaihua is very similar to Zang Lang, they are not very good at lying.

Every time he came home, Lan Hua'er would take a close look at his back, knowing that he was not seriously injured.So when he said that the boss was good, Lan Hua'er believed it.

After Gaihua and Goudan went to the town, Lan Huaer once again had the idea of ​​catching piggy and bringing them home.

She has never raised pigs before, but she knows that pigs eat a lot of things.There are some radish leaves that are so spicy that people dare not eat more, but pigs can eat them happily.Even the weeds that many people do not want to eat on the mountain can be cut back, dried and boiled as hogweed.

Especially after Zang Lang came, Lan Hua'er's desire to catch piglets became even stronger.

There is no way, Zang Lang is really a idiot.It's easy to talk about food, now there is enough food for Zang Lang at home.The cooked food still has no oil or water.

No matter how capable Zang Lang was, he caught all the hares on the mountain, and they were only rabbits after all.Either Zang Lang has practiced the ability to hunt wild boars and deer with his bare hands, or he still lacks fuel at home.

Not to mention the expensive lard bought outside, it is not something they can buy in the village.

Every time the shopkeeper came over with a load, he would bring some with him.Lan Hua'er just looked at it every time, with a look of envy, but was always reluctant to buy it.

What's more, she herself is so hungry for pork.

In the past, she was not picky eaters in modern times, but she didn't like fat meat very much.I always feel that there is such a big oily lump, and I feel a little greasy just looking at it.But when she really traveled back to ancient times and could only eat pork a few times a year, she realized that it was really greedy.

I dream about eating meat.

She thought of the barbecue that those men put up without any scruples when they were on the mountain before.

There must have been some venison or wild boar in it, and possibly wild lamb as well.It smells great, but only once.

There are not many people raising pigs in the village, and there are no sows raising piglets.She specifically inquired about those pig farmers, and said that there is a family in Huaishu Village next door who is good at holding piglets, and most of the pig farmers in Aozi Village bring piglets back in Huaishu Village .

"However," said the pig-raising family, "that family only held their cubs after the spring hunting, and they can't buy them now. Every time we calculated the number, we talked over there and asked him to buy it together." Send it here."

Lan Hua'er thanked her, and said that she would tell her when Kaichun was ready to hold the cub, and the matter was settled.

Because most of the work at home was done by Zang Lang, Lan Hua'er was free and could only do some female reds and embroidery by herself at home.The date of Aru and Tiesheng is set in the twelfth lunar month, Aru is very busy now, and Lan Huaer is too embarrassed to disturb her anymore.

There are some other girls in the town, but Lan Hua'er doesn't think they hit it off very well, and they don't often go to other people's homes.

The family has a little more money, so she bought more needles and thread, and made some odd things.She can already move the soles of her shoes.The next time she wants to make clothes, maybe she can try to do it herself, and she doesn't have to bother Aunt Lin anymore.

For the rest of the time, she studied cooking skills at home.

Ancient times are naturally no better than when she was in modern times.

There are no non-stick pans, gas stoves, and various convenient and practical auxiliary tools.

Especially here, if you want to start a stove here, you have to pierce the stove first, and it will take a long time just to light the stove.The firepower is also difficult to control.If it is too big, it will burn easily; if it is too small, it will not be cooked for half a day.

She didn't have this kind of leisure before. Although the dishes she cooked were more detailed than ordinary farm dishes, they were still farm dishes after all.Now that she is free, she has time to think about things that she didn't have time to think about before.

Like spicy cabbage or lo mei, she has been thinking about it for a long time.Just didn't have the time to do it before.

Spicy cabbage is an easy one.

Now she grows peppers in the yard, and buys sugar and vinegar at home, as well as garlic and ginger, but it's just a matter of adjusting the taste.

Lo mei is more troublesome.

She doesn't know if there is ready-made marinade in the town or in the big city, but she definitely doesn't have any on hand.

She had never done anything this complex herself before.In modern times, there are ready-made marinade buns, so she doesn't need to think about it so much.Open the seasoning packet and just pour it in.

She recalled it for several days, and finally remembered that she had seen the old man at home make stewed pork and chicken wings.

Naturally, the elderly will not buy those lo-mei buns sold in supermarkets.At that time, she was still very young, and she only remembered that the old man put a lot of seasonings into a gauze bag, threw them into the water and boiled them, and boiled a big pot of marinade in this way.

It's just that she only knew what to eat at the beginning, and she didn't study what the braised sauce in the small cloth bag was.If she were to think about it now, she could only be sure that soy sauce must have been added.

But what's inside the cloth bag is nothing more than some spices and condiments.

Lan Hua'er thought about it carefully for a long time, and suddenly she missed the red flowers and the white flowers.

Honghuabai will definitely like to eat braised meat.Moreover, with red flowers and white flowers, she doesn't need to worry about where to find those seasonings that she doesn't have on hand now.
