Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 18 Farming

Yang Chunming in this room was thinking about major events in life, while Chunqiu who ran out from the other side was at the door of Yang Chunni's boudoir, looking serious in thought.

She heard that the eldest aunt is very strict with the eldest sister Yang Chunni, so why don't she go to the eldest sister to deliver meals?Chunqiu frowned, his face was a little tangled, his raised hand was suspended in the air for a long time without moving.

Just when she hadn't decided whether to go in or not, she heard a "creak" and the door opened. Chunqiu raised her eyes in a daze and looked at Yang Chunni who appeared in front of her. She hadn't knocked yet. What about the door.

"Third sister, what's the matter?" Yang Chunni stood at the door, looking at Chunqiu beside her. She had seen her third sister in the room, but the third sister stood at the door and did not come in, so Chunni had to He came out and opened the door.

"No...it's okay" Chunqiu stammered.

"En?" Chunni tilted her head, her tone was puzzled, "Really? I see you have been standing for a long time?" She saw her third sister standing at the door for quite a while, otherwise she wouldn't have come out by herself.

Chunqiu saw that he was exposed, so he simply said it directly, "Sister, are you busy?" Chunqiu asked in a low voice, with a trace of temptation in his tone.

"Not busy, I've finished embroidering." Chun Ni shook her head honestly, she had finished the task assigned by her mother, and was now embroidering handkerchiefs in the room, so it would be a little strange to see the third sister coming but not coming in.

"Really?" Chunqiu was a little excited when he heard Yang Chunni's words.

"En" Chunni looked at the excited Chunqiu and nodded with a smile.

Chunqiu suddenly jumped up from the ground, and said happily, "That's great, sister, come with me to deliver food to Grandma and the others. There is too much fish soup, I can't hold it." Chunqiu honestly confessed, if she If the elder sister is still not free, she can only ask the eldest brother.

Yang Chunni looked at Chunqiu's bright eyes.Without thinking about it, she nodded and agreed, "Okay, come in and wait for me to change clothes." After Yang Chunni finished speaking, she dragged Chunqiu in, and closed the door again.

Taking Chunqiu to her boudoir, Yang Chunni said to Chunqiu, "Wait for me here", "Yeah" Chunqiu nodded.

After Yang Chunni finished speaking, she turned around and walked behind the curtain to change her clothes.

Only then did Chunqiu look at her elder sister's boudoir. Yang's girls only share rooms when they have menstruation, so at such a young age, Chunqiu still sleeps with Yuan's. There is a wooden bed in the middle of the study room. The water-pink sheets are hardened by starch and are spread flat on the bed. The quilts are neatly folded and placed aside. Around the bed are some small pendants embroidered by Chunni herself. , There are small wardrobes and dressing cabinets on both sides of the bed, and there are some girly head rings and small accessories on the dressing cabinet, which makes Chunqiu especially like it. The whole room looks very girly. This is what Chunqiu concluded, and she will do the same in the future s room.

"We can go." Chunni changed her clothes and came out from behind the curtain, and said to Chunqiu beside her.

"Sister, your room is so beautiful, and Qiu'er likes it too." Chunni looked enviously at Yang Chunni beside her.

Chunqiu's words obviously pleased Chunni, and the other party showed a big smile, "The boudoir of the third sister will be better than that of the eldest sister."

"Just be the same as the eldest sister," Chunqiu said modestly, she doesn't want to be picky.

"Hehe" Chunni smiled, and the two walked out of the room.

Because the fish soup was very heavy, Chunqiu just carried the basket. The fish soup was held by Yang Chunni with both hands, and the two sisters went out of the house despite the not-so-hot weather.

"Grandma, it's time to eat." Chunqiu stood on the edge of the field and shouted to Mrs. Yang and Li who were still working in the field.

"Hey, my good granddaughter is here." Mrs. Yang and Li looked back and saw Chunqiu who was beckoning. Immediately, she was so happy that her teeth were exposed, and the wrinkles on her face were like a chrysanthemum blooming.

"Don't do it, my good granddaughter is here to deliver the food." Mrs. Yang and Li shouted to Gu's and the others beside her, and after finishing speaking, she dropped the rice seedlings in her hands and went ashore.

The two sisters Chunqiu and Chunni had already taken out the tablecloth and threw them on a clean ground. Chunqiu took out the white porcelain bowl in the basket and straightened it up, "Sister, pour out the fish soup. There is a spoon"

"Well, I see." Chuni nodded, took out a spoon from the side, opened the seal of the jar again, and scooped out the milky white fish soup inside bit by bit. The milky white fish soup was still steaming, smelling It tasted fragrant and delicious, "It's so fragrant, Sanmei is really amazing." Chunni smelled the fish soup and felt a little hungry, and she hadn't eaten yet.

"Elder Sister, I still have some at home, and I'll eat them when I get back." Chunqiu said with a smile, she had already set aside their share.

Chunni's eyes lit up, her tone was brisk, and her hands were getting faster and faster, "That's really great, I'm hungry"

"Well, let's eat when Grandma and the others finish eating, I'm hungry too." Chunqiu nodded, she was also a little hungry.

When Yang, Li and the others went ashore, Chunqiu and the others had already prepared all the food, and they were not polite, they quickly picked up the steamed buns and started eating with the fish soup.

"Qiu'er, have you eaten yet?" Yuan asked while drinking fish soup and looking at the girl next to her.

Chunqiu shook his head, "No, I'll eat it when I get back."

"My dear granddaughter, have your elder brother and second brother eaten?" Yang Lishi was a little worried about her two golden dolls, who would have to spend their brains studying, and this fish soup was the most suitable for them.

"Eat, I told the second brother and them when I came out," Chunqiu replied obediently.

"That's good, that's good." Yang Li said with satisfaction, "What about my good granddaughter? Have you had any soup?"

"Drink it, there's still some at home," Chunqiu replied crisply.

"Ni'er, have you finished your embroidery work?" After lunch, Mrs. Gu looked at the silent eldest daughter beside her, and then at the lively Chunqiu, feeling a little depressed, wondering why her daughter was so dull.

Yang Chunni didn't expect that Mrs. Gu would ask such a question, and she was stunned for a moment. Looking at Mrs. Gu's angry eyes, Chunni lowered her head in fear and said, "I'm done, now I'm embroidering the handkerchief."

Yang Chunni spoke in a very low voice, especially the timid look, which made Gu even more angry, "What's so good about embroidering handkerchiefs, you can sell more money by embroidering a little purse." Gu's voice was a little loud, faintly There were also some sharp ones, which made Yang Li frown.

"Boss, are you being too strict with Ni'er? The child is still young, how can you be a real mother?" Mrs. Yang Li was a little dissatisfied with Mrs. Gu who was beside her. Well, it's just that she is too strong. A lively and lovely girl suddenly made her become a bun character.

"Mother, am I doing this for Ni'er? Otherwise, what will I do in the future?" Mrs. Gu was a little unhappy when she heard her mother-in-law's words. Isn't she also doing it for her daughter?If you don't do embroidery well, how will you get married in the future?

"Okay." Mrs. Yang Li raised her voice and interrupted Mrs. Gu's words, "That's it for today, I think you've finished eating too, go to work quickly." Mrs. Yang Li glanced at the shivering granddaughter, and directly said Mrs. Gu chased him away.

"Mother, I..." Mrs. Gu was interrupted by Mrs. Yang and Li before she finished speaking. "Go to work." Yang Weimin next to him fell to the ground.

Chunqiu watched the whole process from the sidelines, a passerby* Chunqiu said: Her grandma is so domineering!

"Hurry up and go back to eat." Yuan Shi got up and told the little girl next to her, and then she and Yang Weibo also got off the ground.

Several people left one after another, and only Chunni and Chunqiu were left on the shore. Chunqiu looked at the elder sister beside him who had calmed down, but her face was not good-looking. , and then the two left.

Chunni didn't say anything along the way, and Chunqiu had no choice but to watch the eldest sister lock herself in the door and never come out. Of course, she didn't eat lunch either.This made Chunqiu very helpless, her eldest aunt was too strict, and the relationship between mother and daughter was very tense.

When Chunhua and Xiaoshihuzi came back at night, they had harvested more than yesterday. There were three big fish, one carp and two grass carp. Chunqiu was even more amazed when he saw it. Sure enough, the potential of foodies is unlimited .

"Still eating yesterday's braised fish." Chunhua was standing next to Chunqiu with the fish in her hands, talking about the recipe.

"Well, yes, but second sister, you have to help me. Let's use grass carp to make fish meatballs today. How about it?" Chunqiu touched his chin with his hand. Grass carp has fewer fish bones, and the meat is delicious. Meatballs are a good choice.The remaining carp was still braised in soy sauce, just as the family didn't have enough to eat.

Chunqiu made tonight's recipe in no time.

"Are the fish balls delicious?" Chunhua was a little curious when she heard the fresh vocabulary.

"It's delicious, it's delicious," Chunqiu said with affirmation.

"That's fine, I'll go light the fire," Chunhua said.

"Well, let's go then." Chunqiu took a carp and walked towards the small kitchen with Chunqiu.
