Lin Su looked at him, curled his lips, and said.
"Far away from our home."
Knowing that he deliberately teased her, Lin Su didn't care.
Ling Muchuan took a sip of rice, watched her and said softly.
"Someone from my family on the eighteenth day, I will go to town to buy some things. The daughter Hong that Zhao Yinghao gave last time was not sealed, so let's take it out and drink it."
Lin Su was stunned when he heard the words, then looked at him and said.
"Is that the person you said in your mouth?"
"Yes, that's him." Ling Muchuan continued nodding.
Upon seeing this, Lin Su blinked his eyes and said a little bit of joy.
"You won't go?"
Obviously, her happiness at the moment has infected Ling Muchuan. The latter stretched out his hand, squeezed her soft, and said.
"Don't go. Reluctant to leave you alone."
"Then is he coming to our house for his birthday?"
Ling Muchuan nodded, handed her the empty rice bowl, and said.
"He wants to escort the goods into Beijing, just passing by Liaodong Mansion and staying here for one day."
Lin Su understood when he heard this. The man passed by here, coming to their house specially for a day.
To put it bluntly, the relationship between that person and Ling Muchuan... must be of the iron porcelain kind.
Lin Su gave him the filled rice bowl, thought for a moment, and said.
"Is he alone?"
Ling Muchuan took the job and said casually.
"Should bring an entourage. You don't need to do anything, just cook a meal."
Lin Su frowned slightly, put down his chopsticks and looked at him again.
"Will you live here? If so..."
"He will definitely be here. He doesn't drink well. He drinks one more time." Ling Muchuan finished speaking, looking at her uneasy, smiled and said, "So, you have to build a house quickly, otherwise it will be more embarrassing."
"You're so embarrassed to say!" Lin Sujiao groaned, "The entourage must sleep here, too?"
"You don't need to worry about it, you can just pick one up on the ground at that time." Ling Muchuan said nonchalantly.
Lin Su was speechless, no one entertained guests like this.
Even if it's an entourage, isn't it a visitor
After thinking for a while, Xiao Nizi said.
"In this way, I sleep on a board bed on the ground, and you three sleep on a kang. It's a bit crowded, but you children of the rivers and lakes are informal."
Ling Muchuan was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and after careful consideration, he nodded and said.
"That's okay. I'll make a few extra mattresses for you at that time, anyway we have them in our house."
"There is no such thing as a total of six shops and six covers." Lin Su hurriedly corrected him.
These six quilts were made when she was okay when she was young.
Ling Muchuan chuckled lightly, squeezed her cheek, and said contentedly.
"It's good to have a daughter-in-law, you can think of everything."
Lin Su rolled his face embarrassedly, not allowing him to touch it.
But I was already thinking about the dishes of the people that day.
Always be richer, after all, it's Ling Muchuan's buddy, so he must be treated well.
If you can... It's best to make a birthday cake. But this thing... I'm afraid it is very difficult.
It seems that I have to take time to visit the pastry shop in town and discuss it with them.
After dinner, Lin Su continued to work on her sticky bean bags.
Xiaodouyang was ready, Ling Muchuan took out the pot, put all the beans in the pot outside, and continued cooking with the stove in the house.
Lin Su used a large spoon to mash the rotten adzuki beans, and then squeeze out the sand with a mesh sieve. The bean husks left in the sieve are not used, and they are reserved for feeding the chicken.
Very troublesome and tiring, but this step is critical.
One
After pressing the small beans, it will be dark.
Pour the lard into the pan, heat the oil with sugar, stir fry quickly until the sugar melts, and then gently shovel into the bean paste.
This step is a bit dangerous, it is easy to splash oil and it is very hot.
Lin Su stir fry, let Ling Muchuan put bean paste in it.
With the experience of splashing oil in the first place, when he added later, Ling Muchuan put a spoonful of it gently on the edge.
Lin Su kept stirring, adding sugar to it in batches.
Until the sugar was completely melted, I took a small spoon and tasted it, then handed it to Ling Muchuan, raising his eyebrows.
"Why, is the sweetness enough?"
Ling Muchuan nodded slightly, took a drink, and said.
"Yes."
"Very sweet?" Lin Su asked again uneasy.
She was ok, not very sweet.
Ling Muchuan didn't hide it, put down the bowl and looked at her, and said.
"I don't kiss this, so you don't think it is sweet... I actually eat it..."
understood!
Lin Suli nodded, put the red bean paste out of the pot and set aside to cool.
It’s good to leave it out in the cold when it’s packed tomorrow...
The farmhouse in winter is really boring to be honest.
Catching at home every day, the two of them stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes. They said when there was a problem, and just sat like that when there was nothing to do. It was really boring.
It was the same when I first crossed over, but because of the house, Lin Su asked Ling Muchuan to clean up with her every day.
I wiped this place, add something to that place, hit some chairs, small stools...
A busy day, very fulfilling.
This year is obviously different.
There is no need to clean up the house, and there is only a small amount of work every day, and it will be boring when it is done.
The bean buns are packed, the pickles are also made, and everything is done.
There was not much needlework, and the heel clothes made by the diligent Lin Su were enough for the two of them to wear for three years.
Originally wanted to do it and pass the time, Ling Muchuan was worried that she would break her eyes and said she would not let anything.
Ling Muchuan went out this day, and when he returned, he took a chess piece and placed it on the kang, and said.
"How about I teach you to play chess?"
Lin Su looked at the things on the kang, raised the chessboard rare, and said while watching.
"I haven't played this before, will it be too difficult?"
"Don't worry, no, I will teach you."
"Oh." Lin Su nodded and said after putting down the chessboard, "Then how much is this? Isn't it expensive?"
Ling Muchuan looked at her, shook his head funny, and said.
"You really got into the eyes of money!"
"You bought such a large piece of wasteland, don't I have to ask?" Lin Su said naturally.
To build a house in spring, we have to set up a small stall.
It's certainly not cheap just to buy the odds and ends.
Ling Muchuan knew her worries, put the kang table on the table, put the chess pieces and chess board, and said.
"Don't worry, it's not expensive. This one is the cheapest, eight taels of silver. Usually it's ten taels. I bought it at Xie Jiaping."
Is eight taels of silver still not expensive
Lin Su swallowed subconsciously.
However, it is normal to think about it again. Whoever plays chess in ordinary people, this thing is naturally bought for the big family.
Lin Su opened the lid of the chess box, took out a few chess pieces, put them in his hand, squeezed it, and said.
"Stone?"
Ling Muchuan nodded, took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the Kang, and said.
"It's boring to see you at home every day, so I went to town and bought this. Let's play against each other and we can pass the time."
"Yeah." Lin Su responded, satisfied with his intimate behavior.
It's better to have such a thing to play with, than to stare at it with small eyes.
Ling Muchuan started teaching from the simplest.
Rules and formulas for getting started.
Lin Su doesn't know anything about "pointing and standing upright", "climbing up side by side", "fighting to fly to the town"...
Fortunately, Ling Muchuan had patience and taught little by little. After five or six days of teaching, Lin Su was considered a beginner.
One can imagine how stinky chess skills are, but Lin Su's chess quality is very good.
If you lose, you will lose, and will not deny, act like a baby, or deny it.
It is said that chess quality depends on character. Ling Muchuan looked at her like this, feeling very satisfied.
I specifically asked Lian Jiu to find this game book, Lin Su just watched as long as he was idle, and watched as long as he was okay.
I have to say that Go is really broad and profound.
If she doesn't get started, she will definitely be confused just by looking at the game record.
It is precisely because of the Go game that the winter of the two of them is no longer so boring.
After half a month, Lin Su was able to stand in a stalemate with Ling Muchuan for a while, and was no longer the way he used to, and he was confused after a few minutes.
Ling Muchuan looked at Lin Su who had made great progress, smiled and said.
"Not bad, it has been able to block for a long time."
Lin Su is very self-aware, knowing that he is deliberately comforting, shook his head hurriedly, said.
"It's not a long time, I have to continue practicing."
Ling Muchuan smiled and put away the chessboard, put the candlestick on the lid, and said.
"Wash up, tomorrow I have to go shopping in town."
When the day he had agreed with his friend arrived, he had to go to town to buy some meat back.
You don’t need to buy fish if you have fish at home. Last time, Zhao Yinghao gave the fish heads and tails. They both ate the fish belly, and they just used it to make it.
Lin Su nodded when he heard the words, picked up the chess piece to look at him, and said.
"Tomorrow, I will go to town with you, just in time for me to go to the pastry shop."
"Just say what you want to buy, and I will buy it back." Ling Muchuan said casually.
He didn't want her to go to town, the road was too cold, and she was about to be a little girl, she shouldn't go out to love the cold.
Lin Su understood what he meant, shook his head with a smile, and said.
"Isn't he going to celebrate his birthday, I thought about going to the shop to make a birthday cake, it would be considered appropriate."
"Birthday cake?" Ling Muchuan was puzzled, put the chess board and chess box away, looked at her and said, "What are you there?"
Lin Su smiled with an "um" and continued to explain.
"On our side, as long as we have a birthday, we have to have a birthday cake, and friends can spend the birthday together, and it is lively.
Ling Muchuan pondered for a moment, nodded, and said.
"That's fine, walk when you go tomorrow, and take a carriage when you come back. You can't stop, you can't save the money, your little days are coming."
"Okay, it's up to you." Lin Su said with a smile, got up and put away the kang table.
Scooping water under their shoes, the two of them simply freshened up and lay down on the bed.
Naive is too cold.
The house keeps on fire during the day, but it is not very warm.
I have to get up two or three times in the middle of the night to add firewood, otherwise the house can't stay.
But Lin Su had never gotten up before, and Ling Muchuan did it all by himself.
Thinking of this, Lin Su turned over and lay on his side and said.
"Dachuan, why do you think I can't get up? You sleep until dawn, and every time you get up to add firewood."
Ling Muchuan frowned upon hearing this, and Lin Su couldn't see his appearance clearly in the darkness.
It took a while for the man to speak lightly, said.
"If I can't get up, I can't afford it. Anyway, I can get up."
