Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 114 Pastry
Grandma Hu’s pastry shop is at the entrance of the alley, not far from the pork shop, and there is a shop in the middle. When Chunqiu came in, there was no one in the pastry shop. Grandma Hu was sitting on a small bench at the door, grinding pastry molds. First, he slowly rubbed behind Grandma Hu, then squatted down his chubby body, stared intently with his chin in a daze, and didn't speak, until Grandma Hu finished grinding a rose-shaped mold, and turned around to notice her body. Chunqiu next to her said, "Oh, girl Qiu'er, how long have you been here? Why didn't you call grandma? You should be anxious."

"Grandma, don't worry." Chunqiu smiled, and then reached out to help Grandma Hu up from the stool. Because of sitting for a long time, Grandma Hu's thighs were a little numb. But I can’t work.” Grandma Hu smiled and hammered her calf, and then joked with Chunqiu beside her, “Girl Qiu’er, do you think what Grandma Hu said is right?” Grandma Hu’s eyes were gentle, and she smiled kindly.

"That's not right." Chunqiu shook his head, "Grandma Hu is not old at all."

"Girl Qiu'er is good at talking. Come here to buy some cakes. Grandma Hu will bring you some more." Grandma Hu opened a corner of the counter, walked behind the counter, and took off the white cloth covering the cakes.

"Grandma Hu, I want some lotus seed cakes. My second brother is back today. I also have osmanthus cakes, red date cakes, and rose cakes." Chunqiu ordered all the cakes she wanted, and Grandma Hu picked up the cakes on the side. The kraft paper skillfully picked up the pastry, and then asked, "Girl Qiuer, here is the green bamboo powder that grandma brought back from afar. It's delicious, and it's all made of good green bamboo leaves. Take one back and try it?"

"Yes" Chunqiu replied in a crisp voice, green bamboo powder, it sounds like it is made from bamboo leaves, the spices that her second brother smoked were all made from green bamboo leaves, her second brother will definitely like it.

I want to explain here that her second brother is not a pervert. Every scholar can make incense, and the incense here is not as imagined, because the scholars read the books of sages and learn the style of a gentleman. In our communication, whether it is a folding fan or incense, it is normal. The incense used by her second brother is mainly light, just like bamboo leaves and agarwood. They are all kind of light and cold, which fits Yang Chunming's temperament and character.

"Then grandma will give you a bag, take it back and drink it well, if girl Qiu'er likes it, come and get it from grandma" After Grandma Hu finished speaking, she bent down and took out the small bag from under the counter, and handed it along with the wrapped pastry It was given to Chunqiu, and after Chunqiu took it, he handed over the money in his hand, "Grandma Hu, Qiu'er will go back now." After Chunqiu finished speaking, he waved to Grandma Hu, then turned and walked out slowly.

When Chunqiu returned to the shop, he saw that there was no bullock cart at the door of the shop. Presumably her second brother hadn't come back yet, Chunqiu stepped over the threshold and put all the pastries on the table.

Chunqiu did not sit at the door of the shop this time, but lay on the table, which had been wiped clean by her mother, Chunqiu just lay on the table sideways, staring at the door without blinking, hungry If so, she just called out the kraft paper, took out a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth. Chunqiu waited for a stick of incense, and then saw her second brother appearing in a personable manner at the door of her shop. When visiting her second brother in the past, Chunqiu was too tired and didn't pay much attention to the changes in her second brother. Now that she observed carefully, Chunqiu immediately noticed the changes in her brother. First of all, her brother became taller. Then, the whole child became more temperamental, and finally, her second brother became more and more beautiful! ! !
Chunqiu was a little straight-eyed, she had praised Zhou Huaiyan for being good-looking before, but now that her second brother came back, Chunqiu immediately put Zhou Huaiyan aside, her second brother is the kind of person who is gentle on the outside but cold on the inside. , that kind of combination of cold and warm is simply deadly self-confidence, Chunqiu couldn't help sighing in his heart, such an attractive man is actually her brother, it has cut off her way out!
"Qiu'er, what's the matter?" Yang Chunming found a fiery gaze staring at him as soon as he entered the shop, Yang Chunming instinctively frowned, feeling unhappy, just wanted to make sure who it was, but turned around , caught the younger sister who looked at him dumbfounded, and the unhappy emotions in Yang Chunming's heart immediately disappeared without a trace. With the corners of his mouth raised, Yang Chunming raised his eyebrows at his younger sister.

Chunqiu didn't blush when her second brother caught her, she said proudly instead of ashamed, "Second brother, I miss you so much"

"Really?" Yang Chunming smiled and shook his head, apparently in disbelief.

When Chunqiu saw it, he jumped on one side of the stool, and then threw himself into a hug with the green fragrance of bamboo leaves. Chunqiu rubbed his face contentedly, and rubbed the pastry on the corner of his mouth, "Second brother, look Look, this is more real than real gold."

Yang Chunming directly pulled out the mischievous Chunqiu who was buried in his arms, pointed to the obvious oil stains on his body, and said dotingly and helplessly, "Qiu'er, these are the second brother's new clothes. What should I do?"

Chunqiu giggled, looking at the disaster he caused, he blinked his eyes cutely, "Second brother, Qiu'er is still young, don't mind, Qiuer also bought cakes for second brother?" Chunqiu directly Yuan Shi asked her to buy the cakes for herself, and even asked her second brother for praise.

Yang Chunming's eyebrows are clear and handsome, and the contours of his face are even more soft at this moment, "You, second brother is really afraid of you, I don't blame you for the clothes, is this possible?"

"Yeah, the second brother is the best." Chunqiu nodded with a smile, and then plunged into Yang Chunming's arms again, even if Yang Chunming couldn't say anything.

Yang Chunming was also helpless, his heart was filled with spring and autumn, because today when Yang Chunming came back, Yuan's shop was not open, so the two brothers and sisters quarreled in the shop for a long time, until Chunqiu couldn't stand it anymore, they were not allowed Yang Chunming stretched out his hand and pulled him into the room. Yang Chunming brought back all the things in the school today, but Yang Weibo left them in the room and hadn't tidied them up. Some books were placed on the bookshelf behind him, and he took out a change of clothes, and replaced the ones that had been dirty by Spring and Autumn...

Because Yang Chunming came back during the day, Yuan made a special stewed pork ribs and rinsed the pot. The whole family gathered around the stove, eating, talking and laughing.

By the way, Chunqiu is no longer going to Grandpa Zhou's place, because Grandpa Zhou and Zhou Huaiyan have returned to Linfang County two days ago, and they are going to go back to celebrate the New Year, and they can only come back after the year. In two days, Brother Dabao will also be going home, and the herbal hall will be closed by then, Chunqiu's cheeks are puffed up, so naturally he stayed at home and did not go out.The previous goji berry wine has been given to Grandpa Zhou, and Grandpa Zhou is very satisfied with it. Although the Chunqiu wine is not as good as Zhuang Lao's, it is more than enough. The wine is mellow, fragrant and sweet.
