Chapter 8

Old man Gao misunderstood that she was not used to rough food, sighed distressedly, and vowed to order some millet and come back to cook porridge tomorrow.Then I ate the bean rice on the way to the kitchen.

You Xiang waited for old man Gao to go out to work, so she got up quickly, and was so hungry that she didn't sleep well all night.In the early morning, she walked on the dewy dirt road, looking around, but she couldn't find anything to eat, and she felt a little panicked.But what can we do if we continue like this?I have never been able to work because I have no strength.

She walked for a long time, but still found nothing. Later, she found a field ridge and sat down. She lowered her head dejectedly, staring at the wet land in a daze.

Suddenly, she saw a round hole in the wetland, which looked like a loach's cave. My God, how could she forget this? She can dig shrimp and loach in this season.Thinking of something to eat, he seemed to get excited right away, so he found a thick branch and started digging down the hole.

In one afternoon, I dug up five loaches and four prawns, which is considered rich. At least tonight's dinner will be served with bean rice, which is barely enough for two people.

She happily brought the spoils home, handled the food skillfully, and came to the kitchen.This is the first time she has come to the kitchen. Alas, this is not a kitchen. It is just a firewood stove made of a few clay bricks, with a big black iron pot on it.

You Xiang cleaned the big iron pot, and lit a fire to cook. It's really not used to using firewood for the first time. Fortunately, these foods are all boiled in water, as long as you keep an eye on them.She is also a person who has endured hardships, and she is not afraid of hardships. She is once raw and cooked twice. After the beans and rice are ready, the firewood is also well lit. There is no oil in the house, only a little salt, so the loach and shrimp have to go into the boiling water. Just add some salt to taste.

When a person is hungry, everything smells delicious, so there is a lot of soup for cooking loach and shrimp, thinking that the old man Gao has not returned yet, so he will have a sip of soup to satisfy his hunger first.

After a few bowls of hot soup, my stomach was as warm as spring, and I felt comfortable all over my body, and I no longer felt the cramping pain in my stomach.This loach soup can be regarded as meat, tasted the taste of meat, or missed the quality of life in the previous life.

When Old Man Gao came back, he smelled the food in the courtyard, and he was a little dazed. It had been a long time since he had such a warm feeling.He touched his right hand, only to see a newly added scar on that right hand, holding a small bag of millet in his left hand, and hurried into the room.
