reborn peasant mother

Chapter 21

Not paying attention to the bewilderment on Feng Yujiang's face, Zhong Jipeng grabbed the mill roller and said to Erya, "Girl, help me lick the mill and feed the food." Then he pushed the stone mill and started to rotate.He has a big shoulder and a round waist, so it doesn't take much effort to push the mill by himself.Erya was amused when she saw it, and bounced around the mill to feed the food.

Mother Zhong cursed something with a cold face, turned around and entered the room.

"As soon as the eldest girl leaves, Shanzi is not at home, and there are two younger ones left, this is really a problem." Zhong Jipeng muttered.

Erya said, "Dad, so you know how to push a mill?"

"Your dad knows a lot! If I don't push, your mother is as weak as a chicken. She has no energy. She can't push alone, so why don't you push?"

Feng Yujiang tidied up at the pot house, put down the griddle, and started baking pancakes.At that time, the griddle in the farmhouse was made of cast iron, with a diameter of more than one meter and a weight of several tens of catties.Feng Yujiang lit the fire, first heated the griddle, scooped a spoonful of wheat paste and poured it on the griddle, pushed it away skillfully with a slender bamboo slice, spread it into a big pancake in circles, and baked it for a while. Turn on the fire, and the pancakes will be cooked, and a smell of wheat will spread out, which smells very comfortable.She gently lifted the pancake, folded it in half and then folded it in half again, and picked it up with a bamboo slice and put it into the bamboo dustpan next to it.

Feng Yujiang carefully prepared Zhong Chuanxiu's homecoming banquet.

Early in the morning, she asked Zhong Jipeng for two yuan, and went to the food station of the commune to cut the meat.Pork is seventy-nine cents a catty, and two yuan can cut more than two and a half catties!On the way back, she went around to the vegetable garden and pulled a few green onions.

"Just buy this dish?" Zhong Jipeng asked.

"How much food can you buy for two yuan?" Feng Yujiang asked back.

Zhong Jipeng glanced at her sideways. This woman has shown good looks these days and dared to refute him.

"What else do you have at home?"

"Didan. Cabbage. Radish. There are a few more eggs." The locals call potatoes Didan.

Zhong Jipeng took out another dollar from his coat pocket, and said, "Go and buy some other dishes, that's okay!"

Feng Yujiang didn't take the money, and said, "There's not much food to buy at this time of year! There's also no market today."

"Look on the street. Sometimes there are people selling fish. The bachelor He in Qiancun used to catch fish in the middle of the night and sell them early in the morning. If there are no fish, you can buy some onions to scramble eggs."

Feng Yujiang went to the street again, and sure enough, he bought a bagful of crucian carp, the big ones were as big as half a catty.Bachelor He caught quite a lot of fish today, squatting there waiting for a long time, no one asked the price, and when Feng Yujiang wanted to buy it, he weighed it to her for [-] cents a catty.

Feng Yujiang was very happy.Thirty cents a catty is less expensive than half a catty of meat, which is a good deal.

Zhong Jipeng sent his eldest nephew Zhong Chuanjun to pick up Chuanxiu, and asked him to ride his own bicycle.Not long after, Zhong Chuanjun came back, followed by Wu Shuanggui and Zhong Chuanxiu.

Zhong Chuanxiu was wearing purple clothes and a pink gauze scarf.What surprised Feng Yujiang the most was that her two big black and glossy braids were cut off and cut into short hair that reached her ears.His complexion was okay, and he saw Feng Yujiang smiling.

"Why did you cut your hair? These two hairs are not good-looking." Feng Yujiang blamed.
