Lin Su looked at you, thought for a moment, shook his head, and said.
"There should be no need to retreat. This oil is good for noodles, and it should be able to make two small altars."
As he said, the oil is almost there, bring a small basin, and use the hood to remove the oil residue.
The oil residue is also called oil shuttle, oily. It's crispy and fragrant when it's hot, and it's also good to make bread buns.
Looking at a small pot of oil shuttle, Lin Su thought for a while and said.
"How about making steamed buns tomorrow? It's filled with radish oil and shuttlecup stuffing."
"Okay, you decide." Ling Muchuan listened to Lin Su the whole process of eating.
Bring the cleaned oil jar to the edge of the stove. Lin Su didn't scoop the oil right away, but took a look first.
To put it bluntly, I still don't worry.
After all, in this place, they don't have much money, and a copper plate can't wait to break the two halves.
If Ling Muchuan didn't have the relationship of Tianxiangju, their life would be even more difficult!
After checking it carefully, Lin Su nodded in satisfaction, gave him a thumbs up, and said.
"Yes, good job."
Facing such praise, Ling Muchuan really couldn't get happy, shook his head helplessly, and said.
"Isn't this kind of thing very simple? How can it be difficult for you to say it?"
"Of course it's not easy! You don't know, the little workers I used in the back kitchen are strenuous to work one by one."
Lin Su said while scooping oil into the oil jar, sighed and continued.
"Those lads, you can do whatever you ask him to do. You don't take care of most of them. It's annoying to make mistakes occasionally."
Ling Muchuan sat in the chair she had just sat on, watched her bend down and scooped oil, and asked in confusion.
"Aren't all the cooks in the restaurant men? Why are you..."
"There is no way, I have to live. My parents died before I finished my junior high school. If I want to support myself, I will naturally have to be a poor child and be a master!"
Lin Su said that he was very relaxed, but the person involved only knows how difficult it is behind the relaxed.
Ling Muchuan looked at her in wonder, and asked not to understand.
"Junior high school? What do you mean? And the parents in your mouth."
"Parents? That's what you are talking about. As for junior high school..." Lin Su pondered and looked at him and said, "It's your private school. Go to school to study."
"Have you studied?" Ling Muchuan was surprised.
Lin Su "Haha..." chuckled, pointing to another oil jar, Ling Muchuan quickly took it over and placed it on the other side.
"Of course I have read it. In our world, men and women are equal. Men go to work to make money, and women have to go to work to make money. College entrance examinations are not only for men, women can also do. University... should be equivalent to your talents. ."
When Ling Muchuan heard Lin Su's words, his eyes widened, as if he heard some nonsense.
"Women can still take the imperial examination?"
"Puff—"
Lin Su suddenly laughed when he looked at him in surprise. Emma, it's so funny. He took a deep breath and nodded, and continued.
"I'm not telling you, women have to go to work to make money. However, there are a few women who depend on men for their support. After all, there will be special circumstances."
"What special situation?"
"Pregnancy, childbirth, confinement. Isn't this a special situation." Lin Su finished, and continued to scoop oil.
Two pieces of suet, two whole small jars of meat oil were refined. According to their family's population, they should be able to eat for more than half a year.
Looking at the greasy cauldron, Lin Su reached out and patted his shoulder and said.
"There were five pancakes left at that time,
How about using this pan to fry you in the evening? "
"how about you?"
Five pancakes are obviously not enough for two people.
"I don't eat at night. I ate quite late at noon, and I ate a lot." Lin Su finished speaking, put the spoon in the pot, and covered the big pot.
As for the two oil jars, just leave them there for now and take them away when they get cold.
Seeing that when he was finished, Lin Su picked up a piece of oil shuttle and put it in his mouth to eat, and went into the back room contentedly, intending to stretch the quilt.
Cover it at night, so don't get dirty.
I saw my mother do it when I was young, and I roughly know what is going on. As for the stitches... They must not be dense, so make do.
Ling Muchuan sat on the spot without moving, digesting the things Lin Su told him just now...
When the big tank was taken back, Ling Muchuan still brushed the tank consciously. When the water in the house ran out, I just brushed the water tank clean and went out to collect water.
Lin Su sat on the kang with his head stretched, and looked at his unclosed stitches, somewhat embarrassed.
If this village does not deceive students, she firmly believes that with her character and enthusiasm, she will definitely get along well with everyone.
No one likes to open the door on the roof and dig a well in the stove. It's a pity, life is too joking, how can you be deceived!
"Wow... Wow... Wow..."
There was the sound of water coming from the outhouse, Lin Su bit the line and went to the ground, and when he came to the outhouse, Ling Muchuan pours water into the tank and said softly.
"Let's rest, you haven't been idle."
"Not tired." Ling Muchuan finished speaking, looking at the water in the tank, and then said, "Two more trips will be full. You rest and you have been busy for a day."
Lin Su returned to the house, and the sky was getting darker. After this day, it was really fulfilling.
Quarrel in the morning, go to town to buy things after dinner, then cook, wash clothes, refining oil, stretch the quilt...
Lin Su never knew that she could be so capable. Stretching a lazy waist, lying on the kang with the quilt, indescribable happiness.
The warm Kang, the soft quilt. It’s great to be able to sleep on a new quilt at night!
it is good
Lin Su was startled. The life now is compared with before, and there is no comparison in that matter.
What quilt was covered before, what quilt is now covered. A new quilt satisfies her, really...
It's incredible!
"Wow... Wow... Wow..."
Two more buckets of water were poured into the water tank, and then he went out again.
Today she is busy and tired, isn't he tired
Looking at another stretched quilt, let him sleep on a stool... Wouldn't it be too good!
When there was no light in the room, Lin Su was willing to light the candles.
There are also people who have had hard times, so they naturally understand how to live so that it is not a waste.
When reading a novel, she saw the heroine inside with a big wave, buying everything back. At that time, she wanted to complain.
If you are really poor, then buying things is a prodigal, extravagant, and wasteful.
Occasionally, she would like to laugh when the author explained things like enjoyment and should.
Obviously such a person has never experienced dry mouth and is reluctant to spend a dollar to buy a bottle of mineral water with ice or something.
Old people often say that a penny of money is held up by a hero. She once was too thirsty, but only 80 cents in her pocket, now that she thinks about it, she feels...
"What do you think?" Ling Muchuan returned.
Lin Su calmed down, looked at him, shook his head, and said.
"Hungry? Did I fry the pancakes for you?"
"Not busy, not hungry." Ling Muchuan said, sitting on the kang, watching her stretched quilt and said, "In your world, there is such a
Scratched? "
Lin Su smiled and shook his head, as if he was particularly interested in his original life, and always started with this.
Insert the needle into the wire board, then wind the excess wire up, say.
"Are you curious about my world?"
"Yeah." Ling Muchuan nodded.
Lin Su put the line board away and leaned on the kang head, muttering.
"When I was a kid, I lived in a bungalow. It wasn't that kind of high-rise building. So I used to set fires, stretch my head, wash clothes, rely on oil... These things, I think my mother has done it, it's my mother."
Ling Muchuan nodded slowly, took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the kang, staring at her.
"When I was young, my dad went down to the coal kiln. My mom sold goods in a public grain store. Although I was not rich, I had a very satisfying life. Later, as time changed, my parents were laid off one after another. It's tight."
"Later, my dad went out to work through friends and made a lot of money. I thought that life would get better, but who would have thought that my dad suddenly became ill, and his condition was menacing."
"Sent to the hospital for treatment, which is your medicine hall. But in the end, my dad died, and the house and property of the family were gone. My mom couldn't stand the shock and couldn't afford to be ill."
Lin Su recalled the agony, Ling Muchuan couldn't stand it, but she was like a okay person.
Such Lin Su made Ling Muchuan both surprised and distressed. She was surprised that she was like telling a story without any disturbance. What is distressed is what happened to her once.
"... Later, I really didn't have money to pay the rent and I was pushed out by the landlord. I was only fourteen years old at that time. No one wanted a part-time job because it was a child labor."
"child labor?"
"In our world, only eighteen years old can be considered as an adult, and only 22 years old can be married. That is what you call marriage." Lin Su continued to explain.
Ling Muchuan twitched the corner of his mouth twice, which was unbelievable. Here, especially in rural areas, almost all people are engaged at the age of 14, and they should be married at the age of 15 and 16.
Moved forward, reaching out to put a hand on her shoulder to give comfort, but felt that it was not in compliance with the rules, and did not fall.
Lin Su noticed his behavior, chuckled lightly, and said.
"Want to comfort me?"
"Ok."
"Let me take it for a while." As he said, Lin Su softly leaned on his shoulder.
I have to say that such generous leaning made her very comfortable. No wonder in the TV series, when the woman cries, the male buddies will say, "Let you rely on your shoulders for a while."
The feeling of solidity can indeed relieve people.
The swaying candle light made Lin Su take a deep breath, looked up at him, and said again.
"Some people say that you can be a master in the hardships. I have already succeeded, but I didn't expect to return to the pre-liberation period and start again."
"But this time I think it's okay. After all, it's not alone, with you as an ally. How about we just make a fortune together just together?"
Ling Muchuan listened to her, he didn't understand what was going on, but he understood "getting a fortune".
Seeing her eyes flooding, nodded and said.
"Listen to you."
Emma, this is too lethal to insist. Suddenly, Lin Su's face flushed, and he hurriedly sat up straight, not relying anymore.
Uh…
Suddenly feel so shy, shy for no reason, unclear, unclear feeling.
Finally, I couldn't stand it anymore, and put on shoes and said.
"I'll give you pancakes."
Abandon these words and fled.
She doesn't know what to escape, anyway, she just feels she can't stay in the house...
