Farmhouse Pastoral Notes

Chapter 257 Trip to the Capital (5)

As soon as Chunqiu returned to the carriage, he took out the seasoning bag he had brought. There were a lot of seasonings in the seasoning bag. For convenience, Chunqiu wrapped them all in a bag and put the seasoning bag by his feet. Chunqiu was about to search for it, but Zhou Huaiyan's servant, Qingsong, brought the pot out with him.

Chunqiu took a look with his eyes, the iron pot in front of him could stand up to Chunqiu's chest, he stared dumbfounded at Qingsong hanging the iron pot on the bonfire, he didn't come back to himself until Qingsong called her.

"Miss Qiu'er, is there anything else the villain can help with?" Thinking of the young master's instructions to him before, Qingsong cheered up and asked the girl in front of him.

"Hmm..." Chunqiu elongated his voice, circled around the iron pot in front of him, and finally turned around, waving his hand at Qingsong, "It's okay" including a lot of firewood beside him, Chunqiu is really I can't think of a place where I need to bother others.

"Miss Qiu'er, if you have nothing to do, then the villain will go back now." Standing beside Chunqiu, Qingsong replied neither humble nor overbearing.

"Well, it's okay, you go to senior brother's place." Chunqiu smiled at Qingsong, she could do the next thing by herself, besides, Qingsong is Zhou Huaiyan's servant, she can't order others at will.

There is a carriage between the campfire and the campfire. Although Chunqiu is located in the center, there are not many people around her. The carriage closest to her belongs to Zhou Huaiyan, but since Zhou Huaiyan left, he never got off the carriage. .

The escorts gathered around the bonfire not far away, and Chunqiu noticed that each of these escorts was holding a hard-looking pancake, and every time they took a bite, they would pick up the kettle on the side and pour it With a few sips of water, they didn't dislike the hard-to-swallow rations in their hands.

Beside the bonfire, the fish that Master Wang and others caught were roasting. Chunqiu stared at the fish in a daze, not noticing that Hao Liang, who was next to the bonfire, was rushing towards her.

Hao Liang held the fish in his hand, and said to Chunqiu with a smile, "Sister Yang, this is the fish the master asked me to bring to you."

Looking at the string of fish, Chunqiu felt that the fish soup must be enough.

"Well, thank you Brother Hao Liang." Chunqiu already knew the other party's name when he was by the river, and he didn't hesitate to call him Brother.

"Sister Yang, you're welcome." Hao Liang smiled and waved.
Then he looked around and said, "Sister, there is no water here, just wait, I'll bring you a bucket of water right now"

Dart masters like them, before taking a trip, must first figure out the route of the dart, especially all the rivers passing by around the route.

Chunqiu took the fish that Hao Liang handed over, but didn't make a sound to stop the other party. After all, there is no water, and fish soup can't be made.

Soon, Hao Liang came back with a bucket full of water, put the bucket aside, Hao Liang shook his arms, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, Brother Yu brought a bucket back before it was useless, otherwise I don’t have to go to the river again.”

"Giggle" Chunqiu laughed, "Brother Hao Liang, why don't you pour the water into the pot for me, this bucket of water is too heavy, I can't move it" There is no scoop on the bucket to scoop water Things, instead of burdening yourself, it's better to trouble others, Chunqiu thinks very bachelorly, anyway, he has come so far with a bucket, so he shouldn't mind doing her a little favor.

Pour the water in the bucket into the iron pot, which Chunqiu thought was a small favor, Hao Liang naturally did not refuse, "Is it enough? Do you need to pour it?" Hao Liang poured the clear water in the bucket into half of the bucket, Turning his head to look at Chunqiu, Hao Liang was waiting for Chunqiu's words.

"No need." Chunqiu shook his head, the iron pot was almost filled with water, and with the fish in Chunqiu's hand, a pot of fish soup was just right.

"That's okay, Sister Yang, call me if you have something to do." Hao Liang put down the bucket in his hand, greeted Chunqiu and wanted to leave.

"Hey, wait" Chunqiu opened his mouth and called to Hao Liang who was about to go back.

Hao Liang turned around and asked, "Eh? Is there something else for Yang?"

Chunqiu shook his head, said "it's okay", then bent down and took out a small cloth bag from the seasoning bag under his feet, "Brother Hao Liang, these are some seasonings I brought from the shop at home, including pepper, salt, chili... just right Grilled fish is monotonous, Brother Hao Liang can take it back and adjust the taste." Chunqiu talked about everything in the cloth bag one by one. Anyway, she brought a lot of seasonings, so it's not bad to use them as a favor.

Hao Liang took Chunqiu's small cloth bag, thinking that he would be able to eat fragrant grilled fish when he went back, not to mention how excited he was, the smile on his face couldn't be hidden, and his affection for Chunqiu was even more so. Rising up, thanking Chunqiu for his kindness, Hao Liang ran back quickly, fearing that if he was late, the grilled fish would be eaten up by others.

Chunqiu watched the people leave, and began to get busy with her own affairs. She hadn't eaten for a day, and she was a little hungry. , but there is no oil, so I can only keep everything simple,

Use the water in the bucket to clean up the fish at hand. Chunqiu took advantage of the water to boil and put the fish into the pot. Next, add seasoning and salt to the pot...

Chunqiu didn't stop adding fire until the fish soup smelled fragrant.

Picking up the kettle on the side, Chunqiu poured out the clear water in it, poured the fish soup into it, came to the side of Zhou Huaiyan's carriage, Chunqiu reached out and knocked on the window of the carriage, "Senior Brother, Senior Brother"

"Huh? What's the matter with Junior Sister?" Zhou Huaiyan stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, and looked at Chunqiu with a smile.

Chunqiu raised his head, and handed over the kettle in his hand, "Brother, this is the freshly boiled fish soup, the first one~" Chunqiu smiled, emphasizing the following words.

Zhou Huaiyan raised his eyebrows, reached out to take the water bottle, and then took out a pack of pastries from the carriage, "Reciprocity, junior sister's favorite pastry." Zhou Huaiyan also bit the following two words very hard, as if competing with each other in age.

Chunqiu took the pastry, smiled at Zhou Huaiyan, "Thank you, brother", raised the pastry in his hand, Chunqiu turned and left.

The pure white fish soup was boiling in the pot, after Chunqiu took out his own portion, he called Hao Liang not far away.

Hao Liang had already noticed the situation here when the smell of the fish soup wafted out. The grilled fish that had been smeared with seasonings made Hao Liang more and more hungry. , the brothers in the surrounding Long Escort Bureau all had a bitter expression, anyone who ate delicious grilled fish would find it unbearable to eat rations.

Even Master Wang on the side silently put the rations in his pocket without touching them.

Seeing Chunqiu's signal, Hao Liang stood up from the campfire with a bang, and ran over amidst the exclamation of a group of people.
