Hard work

Chapter 231

The stuff that is stewed with mud actually has a very strong taste, because all the aromas have been stewed in it, and the heat has also been stewed.The moment it was opened, all the fragrances gushed out along with the heat wave.Lan Hua'er once ate beggar chicken in modern times, and when the scent that spewed out spread, it made people feel that the whole room couldn't hold the scent.

To say that the fragrance is ten miles away is not an exaggeration at all.

Naturally, it is not possible to keep the rice in the mud all the time like before, and then open it when it is time to eat.In that case, the scent would really float too far away, and it would be impossible for the victims outside to know what would happen if they smelled the scent.

In order not to cause trouble to the family, Lan Hua'er got the clods out of the stove after guessing that the meal was almost done.

Goudan still stretched his head and looked at the side, with an expression of wanting to help, but Lan Huaer clapped his hands away:
"Go aside, there are no scholars coming over to help the stove. It's not that it's not good for you to help out. Look at you, you clumsy bastard. Carefully, your sleeves are about to burn, so why don't you hide from the side."

Goudan pouted on the side and was unhappy, "Didn't Ah Lang go to work in the kitchen? I'm not rich, and I used to help with things at home. How can there be such rules in our village. "

"What you did before was hard work." Lan Hua'er chased away the dog's eggs and took out the clods of mud and threw them on the ground. .”

Goudan looked at the side unwillingly, but saw that Lan Huaer had already thrown out the mud, and squatted down curiously to look at the hard things.The mud was so hot that he dared not touch it with his hands.

When Lan Hua'er did this just now, she used wet yellow mud, which was pasted on the outside.This will cause the moisture in the mud to be dried out by the fire in the stove, leaving nothing behind.The few things Lan Huaer threw out were as hard as rocks.

"It's very hot, be careful." Lan Hua'er said beside her.

After the mud clods cooled down a bit, she picked up a pole and carefully knocked a small hole on the side of each mud clod.

This can not only speed up the cooling of the food inside, but also allow the fragrance to slowly drift out, so that it will not be too noticeable.

Goudan sniffed at the side and sniffed it, then whispered, "It smells so good."

After hearing what he said, Lan Hua'er also sniffed in the air.

If you smell it carefully, there seems to be such a sweet rice fragrance in the air.But the smell is very weak, if you don't distinguish it seriously, you can't tell it at all.

Even Lan Hua'er knew that she had opened all the food outside, if she didn't deliberately distinguish it, she would have no way to smell it in the air.

"Are you a dog's nose? You can tell even the slightest smell." Lan Hua'er said with a smile, "It's not going to spread outside. Hurry up and go outside, and don't guard it." Alright, let's have dinner when Elder Brother and A Lang's come."

Goudan nodded, and then ran outside.

Lan Hua'er looked back at the things on the stove, and felt that there was nothing to clean up, so she went outside.

She was also worried about what was going on outside, but there was nothing she could do.If you want to tell her to go outside, or send the dog to take a look, she absolutely dare not.The only thing that made her feel more relieved was that there was no loud noise from outside.She listened for a long time, but she never heard the sound of shouting and fighting like that day.

Since there was no sound coming out, Lan Huaer told herself that the environment outside must be very good.Otherwise it would not be so quiet and peaceful.

She waited until noon, but still couldn't wait for someone to come.

She, Xiaodie, Goudan and the two gentlemen are left at home now.

Although it was time for dinner, everyone saw that the people outside hadn't come back yet, so they all tacitly didn't urge to eat.

Lan Hua'er looked back at the quiet people at home, and felt a little uneasy in her heart.

She always wanted to wait for the two men outside to come, and then we would have dinner together.But looking at it now, those two men don't know when they will come back.If we continue to wait, everyone at home will be hungry.

But if they didn't wait, if the two of them came back while they were eating, they wouldn't know how uncomfortable it would be to see them.

Thinking all the way like this, worrying about whether the two people outside were injured or what, after waiting for a long time, there was a little noise from the door.

Just as there was a sound from the fence, Goudan suddenly turned over from the kang, jumped and ran towards the door.

He was careful, stopped at the front of the house, opened the door a crack, looked outside first, then cheered and opened the door, "Brother, they are back!"

Lan Hua'er also stood up, and even Xiao Die who was next to her followed her with bright eyes. She didn't know if she understood Goudan's words, or if she just thought that this should be changed back.

Yang Langzhong also walked over slowly, smiling and muttering in his mouth, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back. I don't know if I'm hurt. Hey, you said that in this village, how come There are so many things. Why can't this person live a good life together. "

Lan Hua'er looked back at him, pursed her lips and smiled.

Doctor Yang is old, but he is not very old, but he thinks - I don't know if it is because he is studying medicine, and he is always relatively peaceful and simple.Although Lan Hua'er thought it was impossible, she didn't dislike Yang Langzhong's idea, so she just smiled and ran to the door to pick up her elder brother and Zang Lang.

Both men had some injuries when they came back this time.

The modified face looked fine, without any obvious scars, but Zang Lang's face and neck had a few scratches or abrasions.Gaihua said guiltily, saying that Zang Lang blocked it for him.

Yang Langzhong went over to look at them, and patted them both comfortingly, and said, "It's all right, it's just a minor injury. It's not like the serious injury before, and it's back after this kind of care."

Zang Lang himself didn't care about this, he smiled silly at Lan Hua'er, scratched his head, and didn't say anything.

Lan Hua'er looked back and forth, and found that Gaihua and Zang Lang were the only ones who came back. She couldn't help but feel a little strange, so she asked, "Where are the folks living at home?"

"The village chief said, let them go home on their own," Gaihua said while dragging his coat and jacket beside him, "He said that everyone in their family has been driven away now, and they should also add it. No one in the village has much surplus food. It’s not good to say that they come here and there. It’s okay for the folks in the village to come if they have a better family and support them. It’s okay for them to go to the back mountain to find food, so they won’t be allowed to follow .”

Lan Hua'er was silent for a while, feeling that the village head's arrangement was actually not appropriate.But if you want to ask her how to arrange those folks, she really can't think of a way.

If Zhao's family is not rich, she should be happy that those people were driven home by the village chief.But at this time, she was a little unhappy.But even if she couldn't be happy, it was impossible for her to take the initiative to welcome those people back home.

Many of the wounds of the changed flowers are under the clothes.Zang Lang is the same as him.As soon as the jacket was taken off, the arms were exposed, and there were many bruises on it, which were said to be hit by those victims with sticks outside.

Although Changwu is a stranger, but he has been living at home, everyone is familiar with him, and now he followed him to have a look, then frowned, and whispered how the outside world has become like this , and then sighed.

But of course no one paid him any attention.It's not that everyone doesn't want to talk to them, it's just that they are all busy.

Yang Langzhong called Goudan to get the herbs together, dipped a towel in water, and turned around to treat the wounds of Gaihua and Zanglang.Xiaodie is not very good at understanding words, but she also knows that the wound should be boiled with a towel, so she follows along to help.

Lan Hua'er saw that they were busy with each other, and she couldn't intervene while standing, so she simply went to the back and disposed of the rice stewed with mud.

This rice is easy to deal with, as long as you knock off the hardened mud outside, then peel off the straw mat, and spread the rice in the bowl.

The mud clods have been placed for a long time, the rice on one side is almost cold, and the smell has long since dissipated, and now there is no more fragrant smell when it is opened, and it can be served outside.

Lan Hua'er spread out the meals and prepared a bowl for each person before taking them outside.

Gaihua and Zang Lang were stunned when they saw the lunch.Gaihua also joked with a smile:

"My sister loves people so much. I actually eat meat today, and I am not afraid that the victims outside will come to my house if they smell the smell. Oh, my sister has grown up, and I can't keep my family. I am a Brother, it is estimated that there is no such good treatment. Who are they all for?"

Although he is not often at home, he knows his sister very well, and he can probably see that there is always something between Lan Huaer and Zang Lang.He doesn't dislike Zang Lang, and he also thinks that his sister is always at home alone. No matter what his background, Zang Lang can treat Lan Huaer well, that's enough.

Lan Hua'er couldn't help stomping her feet, "Brother, you are talking nonsense. Do you want to eat this meal? Don't you want meat? I'm very hungry."

Gaihua was smiling beside him, and quickly grabbed his job.
