At first, Luo Tian and Li Yuehua were worried that Luo Fei would cry and go home after marrying Xi's house for two days. Even though they were so close, they didn't go back to their parents' house once. Originally, Li Yuehua wanted to go to Xi's house to see how Luo Fei was doing, but was stopped by Luo Tian.
"It's only been a few days?" Luo Tian said, "Just wait a little longer, anyway, you can still watch it when you go back, so don't let Yanqing think too much." According to Yu Qingguo's custom, he returned to the door three times in total. The first one is the sixth day after getting married, the second one is the sixteenth day, and the third one is the twenty-sixth day. Taking the "six" of each month means that everything will be smooth in the future. During this period, it is not that they did not return to the door in advance, and some mothers would go to see their children. But if you really do that, it will be easy to be talked about behind your back. It's either talking about the party who sent the child out of the house and worrying about the husband's family, or talking about the child's unsatisfactory life after marriage. Anyway, no one is good, so generally no one does that. After all It's only been six days, and it's really not much to say.
"It's done. I'm just, I'm always worried that they can't eat well. You said that Erbao has not developed his skill in cooking since he was a child, and Yanqing came back from a war outside, so he probably wouldn't know how to cook. just in case… "
"Why are there so many incidents? You mother-in-law just loves to worry." Luo Tian rested his sturdy arm under the quilt, "You can rest assured. You can't tell the look in Yanqing's eyes when he looks at our Erbao. Is it? He thinks about our Erbao, and he must not let Erbao be wronged. When I came back from the field today, I met Xiao Zhou, and Xiao Zhou also told me that Yanqing and Er Bao worked together, yes It's funny. Later, when the aunt of the Zhou family mentioned that she should pay attention to her body when she just got married, Yanqing immediately stopped our Erbao from working. "
"Hey, you said that Erbao is also like a bird who flew away from home, and he couldn't catch it."
"Hey, I said Li Yuehua, do you think you're crooked? I'm afraid it's you who will come back, and you will be the one who says he won't come back." Luo Tian shook his head, "It's really hard to serve!"
"I don't know who will serve whom!" Li Yuehua glared, "I'm not, I'm not worried about him. You said that the plum blossom in his hand is too pale to look good, in case it's like what Qin Guizhi said , I'm really afraid that when our second treasure arrives..."
"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, why do you want to do so much? Sleep!"
"If you want to sleep, sleep by yourself!" Li Yuehua turned around and continued to think about her second treasure. She broke her fingers and calculated, it seemed that she would be back in two days. Thinking about it like this, she felt that two days were quite difficult.
However, some people just can't help but talk, and this talk is coming.
After Xi Yanqing's quail egg nugget soup, Luo Fei ate another meal of undercooked oil pancakes, undercooked potato pieces, and mashed potatoes that had been boiled for too long because he was afraid of undercooking.
In short, Luo Fei felt that he had to suffer from stomach problems after eating like this, so he and Xi Yanqing decided to come to Luo's house to learn cooking with Luo Ru.
Xi Yanqing specially said that if you study well, you can get paid, and the money will not be deducted, but will give him a further increase.
So on a fine morning, Luo Fei took out a little of his private money, went to the Zhao family tofu shop in the village to buy two pieces of tofu, and took it back to her parents' house. When it comes to returning home, Luo Fei really didn't know it at first. Take it to heart, because in his conception, her family's place is that she can go back if she wants to, and Xi Yanqing will not object. He didn't go back just because he didn't think it was necessary. Besides, he has already been hired by Xi Yanqing, so he must be a little bit ethical, right? It's not good to be absent from work as soon as you start working. So when you really need to go back, go back, such as today.
"Father! Mother! Big Brother Three Treasures and Four Treasures! I'm back!" Luo Fei shouted as soon as he entered the door, "Are you at home?"
"Oh, it's my Erbao who is back!" Li Yue lace wiped her apron and ran out, "Erbao, why are you here today? Let my mother take a look!"
"Hey, come here if I think of you." Luo Fei handed over the tofu, "Mother, I just bought it, and it's still hot."
"Come here and bring some tofu with you." Luo Tian said, "Where's Yanqing? Why didn't I come with you?"
"He's here too, but I just met Han Yang and Chen Huazhang on the way, so I might have to say a few words to him before coming in." Luo Fei entered the room, "Where's the three treasures?"
"Sambo is in the vegetable garden." Logie said, "How are your days?"
"Ah, it's not bad." Luo Fei originally wanted to talk about making peace, but after thinking about it, his family might think that Xi Yanqing was not good enough for him, so he still used the word "not bad". Xi Yanqing was really kind to him.
"Second brother, why are you coming back today?" Luo Ru and Luo Yi both came out of the backyard while patting her sleeves. She remembered that her second brother shouldn't come back today.
"Second brother came to learn how to cook with you, so as not to waste the food." Luo Fei said bluntly, "These days everything is good, but when it's time to eat, I get upset. You also know that I didn't like to eat in the past. The kitchen, this is terrible."
"Sure, then I'll teach you how to cook. Don't worry, you can eat well after a few days of study!" Luo Ru patted her chest and assured. She thought her second brother was very smart, but he didn't like oil fumes in the past, so he always refused to go into the kitchen. If you really want to put in the effort to learn, it's definitely no problem.
"That's fine, then, I'll learn from you every day from now on."
"Tiantian? You want to go home?" Li Yuehua asked with a frown. She misses her son, but she doesn't want to let the married child come back to live. That child is not good for her husband's family.
"Well, come here when you have time. Yanqing also agreed." Luo Fei said, "in case we both can't eat well. Mother, what did you do in the morning? Is there any leftover? It's done, and I didn't eat much."
"I made some porridge in the morning and ate some dried eggplant with sauce, but there was nothing left." Not to mention that it is spring now, even when there is a lot of grain in autumn, it is impossible to finish eating and have leftovers. Yes will be able to fill the stomach just fine. Li Yuehua gave Luo Fei a distressed look: "If you are hungry, mother will make you some nugget soup, hurry up."
"It's better to say goodbye to my mother, Xi Yanqing will do that. We have been eating it a lot these two days, and I'm getting tired of eating it."
"You're already married, why are you still calling him by your first and last name!" Li Yuehua slapped Luo Fei's forehead, "This is not good, change it."
"Second brother, second brother, how is Brother Xi treating you? Surely?" Luo Yi asked with a smile.
"Okay, go up the mountain to touch five bird eggs and give them all to eat." Luo Fei wondered how he would be the first to notice the name problem when he met someone? The focus of these people is really strange. But that seems to have to be changed.
Luo Fei didn't want to eat lump soup, and there was nothing else to do except porridge. Now, the time to make pasta with noodles is tight. Finally, Luo Ru saw the tofu that Luo Fei bought, and cut the tofu into fingertip-thick slices. Sprinkle finely with salt. When she ordered the chai, the tofu was also delicious. At this time, fry it with meat oil, the outside is coke and the inside is tender, and it is particularly fragrant when you eat it.
At first, Luo Fei wanted to eat tofu dipped in soy sauce, but after trying the fried tofu, he thought it tasted better, so he decided to learn from Luo Ru. In fact, it seems that there is no need to learn, because Luo Ru was watching while he was doing it. It wasn't that complicated, so he knew it at a glance.
Luo Ru fried a piece of tofu, Luo Fei ate half, and left the other half for Xi Yanqing. However, at this time, anyone who smelled such a fragrant thing would have some appetite. Luo Fei saw that Luo Yi was also looking at it from time to time, so he fried the second piece as well. That's right, the second piece was fried by him, and Luo Ru watched from the side.
"I knew that second brother, as long as you learn it, you will be fine. Needlework is so difficult and you can do it so well. What's so difficult about making ideas and eating?" Luo Ru was also happy, eating a piece of fried tofu, smiling.
"Sanbao, do you think this will work? The second brother will come over tomorrow when it's almost noon, and the second brother will learn from you what you cook, will it work?" Luo Fei felt that coming early in the morning would be too early Yes, it's possible at noon. The content done at noon can be richer than that in the morning, and it is most likely to learn more.
"Okay! What's wrong with this?"
"Then it's settled." After Luo Fei finished speaking, he saw that the tofu was going to be cold before Xi Yanqing came. He hesitated for a while and said, "I'll go out and have a look." I want to eat something good in this place. It's too difficult. Although this fried tofu is not a good thing, it is delicious to eat. Don't wait for it to get cold. The meat oil solidifies as soon as it cools.
Xi Yanqing made an appointment with Chen Huazhang to measure the ruler and make furniture, and then entered the Xi's courtyard, but he met Luo Tian outside and talked about some things, so he didn't come in.
It took some time to come to Huaping Village, and Xi Yanqing had his own plans. When he went into the mountain before, he saw some medicinal herbs that he was familiar with, but he only went up the mountain to chop down trees, and he didn't have time to get them. Later, he went to the mountain again and took a closer look while getting some fine wood for the fence. He found that there were indeed some things that were suitable to be planted at home.
It has just warmed up now, and some plants have only begun to sprout, so he only saw some perennials, such as ginseng. At the end of autumn, the stalks coiled around the trunk of this thing will dry up, and some may rot, but some will remain coiled on it, so it can be seen. Its rhizomes can be used as medicine as well as edible. He doesn't know how to make it himself, but he has eaten some. It should have been marinated with seasoning and then fried. If you can get it at home, not only will there be an extra dish on the table, but you can also take it to the pharmacy to ask if they accept it. Although this is not a precious medicinal material, there are others that can be grown.
Before Luo Fei asked what the vacant lot in the vegetable garden was used for, it was specially made for transplanting and trial planting of medicinal herbs.
Xi Yanqing's current thinking is that he can't sit and eat the mountains.
Don't say that you don't have much money, even if you have more money, you can't be idle. Being busy seems to be a must if you want to live a better life here.
Luo Fei came out with a plate to eat fried tofu for Xi Yanqing. Xi Yanqing was especially helpful. He smiled and said, "You feed me, I didn't wash my hands."
It's mushy!
Luo Fei stared: "Xi Yanqing, you are not stinky! It's good to eat if you have it, eat it yourself!"
Li Yuehua gave him a paw when she came up: "Stinky boy! It's all said to change!"
Luo Fei took back the plate aggrievedly, thinking what should I change? ! Can't really be called "big tiger"? As for "husband" or something, that's even more impossible!
Luo Yi laughed aside: "Hahahaha, second brother, why have you been beaten more recently than me? But mother, don't beat up in front of Brother Xi, brother Xi will feel distressed again."
When Luo Fei heard it, yes! Luo Yi is called Brother Xi, so he is also called Brother! Anyway, Xi Yanqing is bigger than him!
"Cough!" Luo Fei cleared his throat and handed the plate forward again: "Brother Qing, eat."
"Yeah." Xi Yanqing took the plate with a smile, eating tofu, but most of the time his eyes were glued to Luo Fei's face. After eating, he wiped his mouth: "Chen Huazhang and Han Xu should come to us in the afternoon, and we have agreed on the measuring ruler. Before that, you should think about what kind of bowl rack you want to make, and it will be convenient to tell him then."
"Oh, yes."
"Besides, after we've settled this, we'll have to start planting dry fields tomorrow. Would you like to go take a look?" If he did, he would have to prepare some things in advance.
"Let's go." Luo Fei thought that there were no leeches in the dry fields. It would be better to go and see where his own land was, so as to save him in case he couldn't find anything to deliver food in the future, "What do you want to grow?"
"Corn over soybeans."
"What the hell?!"
"It's a mixed planting of the two. After planting it, you can increase the yield." Xi Yanqing smiled, "You will know when I plant it."
Xi Yanqing's major is to study agriculture-related technologies, but Luo Fei does not doubt his professional skills. But it was the first time he had heard of the expression "corn covered with soybeans".
Although I didn't come back on the day I returned home, I have come here, and I always have to eat before leaving. So Luo Fei and Xi Yanqing were also at Luo's house for lunch. They didn't stay much after the rubbing, because Chen Huazhang and Han Xu were coming in the afternoon, so they went back after dinner. When they went back, Li Yuehua also filled Luo Fei with several oil cakes. Originally, he was going to pack steamed buns for him, but the noodles were not ready yet, and it was not ready to be steamed. Luo Ru also kindly fried some shredded potatoes and let them eat them in a roll. This is a rare delicacy. When Luo Fei goes back, don't be careful with it on the way.
In the evening, Luo Fei heated oil cakes and shredded potatoes, and settled with the banquet to improve the food. In fact, for them who have lived in modern life, this is really not a precious thing, but eating it for a few days is not reliable. Stuff, it's no different from a baby.
After eating the cake, Luo Fei took off the table and scratched his back.
He hasn't had a bath since he got married. Now it's getting hot every day, he is cooking and cleaning the house, and he has to clean the yard every day, so his body gets dirty very fast. He wanted to take a bath for a long time, but he couldn't carry so much water and bathtub. The thing was so dead and so tall that it was impossible for him to lift a large bucket of water and pour it into it. It is estimated that even if you have the strength to pour, there will be no energy left to take a shower after the pour.
At this time, he had to ask Xi Yanqing for help.
Xi Yanqing was picking up the roots of something outside, and Luo Fei couldn't see what it was. Roffe scratched his own mouth when he came over—he likes to do little things when he's indecisive.
"Is something wrong?" Xi Yanqing turned to look at Luo Fei.
"I want to take a bath. But I can't lift the bathtub." Luo Fei himself didn't realize how pitiful he said, Luo Xiao Donkey turned into Luo Puppy.
"I'll help you carry it in a while." Xi Yanqing looked at Luo Fei very tenderly, "Go and find the changed clothes first."
"Okay, thank you!" Luo Fei saw Xi Yanqing's answer so happily, and trotted into the room. He opened the kang cabinet, took out a set of clean underwear, and then took out a piece of cloth. This cloth is not meant to wipe clothes, but is intended to be used for dish rack curtains.
Tomorrow he was going to the dry fields to see, and there would be no time for needlework, so he planned to do it while his hair was dry before going to bed. He didn't cut the size first, just embroidered something on it.
Xi Yanqing packed up a few pieces of aconite and put them aside before going to fetch water for Luo Fei. The hot water raffia has already been boiled, just add some cold ones. There is a large water tank in the kitchen, and Xi Yanqing gets up early every day to fill it up. He got the water out of the tub and poured it into the tub, and then tested the temperature of the heated water for Rolfe.
"Isn't it necessary to make new water and pour it in after a while?" Otherwise, a tank of water is enough for two or three days. Luo Fei said: "It's better to pour the freshly drawn water directly into the bathtub, you can save some effort."
"The water from the well that I just dug is too cold. Even adding two pots of hot water to the bath water won't be too hot. This water has been in the house for a long time, and it's still warmer than the outside. It's more troublesome, it's not. If you can wash it every day, I'll warm up the water for you, as long as you can wash it comfortably." Xi Yanqing finished getting the water ready and put the bucket aside, "You wash it, I'll go into the room to count something."
"Okay." Luo Fei paused, "Thank you Brother Qing."
"You're welcome." Xi Yanqing suddenly stopped at the door of the big house, turned his head and asked with a smile, "Are you sure you don't want to rub your back to serve ma'am?"
"No need!" Luo Fei frowned, "I don't tell you you are not allowed to come out!" It's a serious thing for only three seconds! You shouldn't think that this is a kind person in front of you!
When Luo Fei was undressing, he frequently looked at the door, for fear that the banquet would come out halal. But Xi Yanqing did not appear, but he, mentally, kept thinking about Xi Yanqing until he took a bath.
What the hell is this guy in the house
Luo Fei wiped his body and put on clean underwear, wiping his hair as he went into the room. But I don't know that his cheeks are pink, his eyelashes are slightly wet, and his whole body is full of moisture, which is enough to fascinate a hundred Xi Yanqing!
When Xi Yanqing heard the voice, she turned her head, but she really forgot to breathe...
Luo Fei didn't know it yet, he sat on the kang and pressed his chin on the paper opposite to Xi Yanqing: "What is it?"
Xi Yanqing did not speak. After a while, he got up and walked over, took the towel from Luo Fei's hand, and gently lifted his chin.
Luo Fei was stunned for a moment: "Why?"
Xi Yanqing didn't speak, he stared at Luo Fei silently for a moment, then suddenly bent over and kissed Luo Fei's mouth...
