Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 3729
Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Of course I remember. At that time, Tang Yazi and I got the news that there was a child of the same age and appearance as my Chen'er in Hekou Village, Huguang County."

"So the two of us hurried over to look for it. That child is Dazhi."

Zuo Junmo nodded, and continued: "Dazhi's parents are fishermen from Yangzhou, and the whole family lives on the boat."

"Dazhi's father drinks heavily, beats his wife, and sells his children,"

"That time when we went to Xun Chen'er, we just caught up with the fishermen's boat passing the big river in front of Hekou Village,"

"Dazhi's father drank too much and beat up Dazhi's mother, and even sold Dazhi. Later, when Dazhi's father slept at night, his drunken vomit blocked his mouth and nose and died. Under such circumstances, Dazhi's mother entrusted Dazhi to I gave it to you and Fengtang, am I right?" Zuo Junmo asked.

Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Every word is correct."

"Brother Zuo, why are you telling me this?"

"Could it be, couldn't it be that people from Dazhi's hometown are coming to take Dazhi back?"

Thinking of this, Yang Ruoqing became inexplicably nervous, feeling a hundred times sad in her heart!

Even though Dazhi was not born by herself, but by someone else, she just doesn't want to give up!
"Qing'er, don't worry, I didn't mean that." Zuo Junmo quickly explained.

"Brother Zuo, what on earth do you mean? You are usually a very neat and straightforward person, why are you talking so sloppily today? You are driving me to death!"

Yang Ruoqing babbled a lot, Zuo Junmo's head was full of black lines.

Qing'er, it's not that I'm hesitant to talk about things today, it's that you're too impatient today.

However, these weak slanders only flashed in Zuo Junmo's heart and then disappeared without a trace.

Because he knew why Yang Ruoqing lost control of her emotions and became so anxious and anxious. She cared too much about Dazhi's child.

"Dazhi's elder brother and sister-in-law went to Hekou Village and found Lizheng from Hekou Village, who was my friend." Zuo Junmo continued.

"What they mean is that they want Lizheng to contact you for help. His eldest brother and sister-in-law want to come and see Dazhi. They say they haven't seen him for seven years and they want to come and see his younger brother."

After hearing Zuo Junmo's words, Yang Ruoqing's heart was more than half relieved.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, sat back down again, her expression returned to normal, her mind naturally calmed down, and she began to analyze the problem.

"Dazhi's eldest brother and sister-in-law? Let me think about this person carefully..." Yang Ruoqing narrowed her eyes and searched for her memory.

Seven years ago, by the river in Hekou Village, when I saw Dazhi Niang for the first time, she was squatting on the bank and tending a simple hanging pot.

I don't know what kind of food is cooking in the pot, but there are children around her, including boys and girls.

The oldest child among them was a boy, about ten years old, squatting there hula la eating what was in his own bowl.

After eating, he went to snatch the bowls from his younger brothers and sisters. He didn't have the demeanor of being a big brother at all. When the younger brothers and sisters cried, he yelled at them. He looked like a mischievous, domineering and unreasonable child. .

Boys are naughty, especially the kind who grew up on a boat and have nowhere to live.

Maybe when he grows up, he will be sensible after getting married, otherwise he wouldn't have thought of coming here to find his younger brother.

"I remember," she said to Zuo Junmo, "Brother Zuo, where is Dazhi's elder brother and sister-in-law?"

Zuo Junmo said: "For the time being, I will place their young couple in Lizheng's house in Hekou Village."

"I have to come here and consult your opinions before making a decision." He said.

Yang Ruoqing smiled happily, and said: "Brother Zuo is really thoughtful, let's talk about this matter. In fact, Tang Yazi and I very much agree that Dazhi recognizes his biological brothers and sisters in his hometown. After all, we are brothers and sisters. their right to recognize each other."

"But about this matter, I have to wait for Dazhi to come back from school, and then ask him what he thinks in person."

"This child is already eight years old and has begun to understand. Besides, as parents, we can't take care of everything. What do you think, Brother Zuo?" Yang Ruoqing asked back.

Zuo Junmo nodded: "Well, it is also necessary to ask the child what he thinks. Qing'er, you are a good adoptive mother. Dazhi is lucky to meet you."

Yang Ruoqing smiled a little embarrassedly, "Brother Zuo, don't praise me, you're ashamed."

"Well, you can sit down first, or go outside by yourself, I have to cook lunch, cook your favorite dishes!"

Yang Ruoqing blinked playfully, and stood up.

Zuo Junmo also stood up: "Then I'll go to Third Uncle's field and see how the crops are growing here."

Yang Ruoqing raised her finger and pointed to the wall of the main room behind Zuo Junmo: "Okay, you go, remember to put on the straw hat hanging on the wall over there, it will block the sun when it comes out, and block the rain when it rains, it can be used for two purposes hehe ..."

Yang Ruoqing first went to the backyard to catch an old hen, and cleaned it up neatly.

Empty the belly of the chicken, stuff it with ginger, garlic, star anise, peppercorns, scallions, etc., and then use soy sauce, rice vinegar, salt, rapeseed oil, sugar and other seasonings to make the sauce.

Spread the sauce evenly over the chicken and set it aside to let the flavors in.

On the other side, she picked the fresh zong leaves of this season, washed them, and wrapped the old hen with zong leaves.

Wrap the inner three layers and the outer three layers, and finally wrap the rice dumpling leaves tightly with evenly mixed mud.

A small pit has been dug at the door of the kitchen, put in rice-leaf beggar chickens, soil is built on it, and then branches and hard firewood are placed on it to start burning.

This way of eating was taught by Luo Fengtang when he came back last time. He brought back a new way of eating chicken from the southwest.

He also dug this small pit with his own hands. The last time he made two beggar chickens, there was not enough for Luo Baobao to eat.

This is Yang Ruoqing's first time doing it, I hope it succeeds.

In the kitchen, Yang Ruoqing continued to work, stir-fried the chicken offal and eggs together, adding red dried chili peppers and fresh green chili peppers from the vegetable garden.

It is best to put some millet pepper and pickled pepper in it, and some celery jokes. When it comes out of the pan, it is spicy, sour and refreshing, and it is especially suitable for rice.

Of course, in addition to serving Zuo Junmo with spicy farm meals, Yang Ruoqing also made sweet and sour pork, braised pork ribs, fried shrimp with eggs, and seasonal vegetables.

Ask Xiaoyu to say hello to Yang Huazhong in the next yard, and tell Blacksmith Luo to ask the two male elders to come over for lunch at noon and drink with Zuo Junmo.

At noon, Yang Huazhong and Luo Tiejiang all came over, and Yang Huazhong also brought a jar of good wine.

"This is the leftover wine from the banquet held during the Qingming Festival last time. Now Jun Mo is here, let's have a good drink!" Yang Huazhong patted Zuo Junmo's shoulder and said happily.
