Fast through the cannon fodder, she shines brightly

Chapter 261 Widow (16)

She embroidered a handkerchief first, and the stitches were a little messy, but after she regained her feeling, she performed smoothly. She unfolded it and looked at it, and felt quite satisfied.

So she changed to a new pattern of embroidery. If she wanted to sell it at a good price, she had to have her own characteristics. This time, it was a few petals of epiphyllum, which were lifelike. The outline of the line is more exquisite, if it is not because the original owner is illiterate, she will definitely have to mention a few poems, so that the price can be sold even higher.

After embroidering two handkerchiefs, the setting sun was reflected in the sky, and the two children were still playing tirelessly. Mu Wan smiled and picked a cabbage from the vegetable field to the kitchen.

She wants to eat better at night. She bought pork today, but she won’t go to the market for several days. She divides two catties of pork into three portions, and the one that can be eaten at night is only the size of a palm. To save trouble, it can fill her stomach. Full, Mu Wan plans to make dumplings, which are delicious and convenient.

There was still a handful of shiitake mushrooms picked earlier, so Mu Wan chopped them into cubes, chopped the cabbage as well, and squeezed out the excess juice inside.

The batter for making dumplings should be much thicker, and it needs to be kneaded constantly to make the flour stronger. Use a rolling pin to remove the skin and wrap it in.

The dumplings are white and fat, and she made a total of fifty or so. She can save half of them for breakfast tomorrow. The dumplings float up and down in the pot, and when the skin is slightly transparent, they are put into bowls.

She also mixed a dish of dipping sauce and brought them to the table together.

Take a small bite, the skin is elastic and glutinous, and there is a rich soup inside. The mushrooms are delicious, making the soup fragrant, the pork is delicate, with a light sauce flavor, tender and refreshing, and the cabbage is also sweet and sweet, dipped in vinegar The taste is sour and refreshing.

Fang Cheng pursed his lips in recollection, he had never eaten this kind of food before, it was so delicious, he couldn't even remember the taste of those boiled cabbage in the past.

"Mother, what is this?"

Mu Wan took a sip of the soup, "This is called dumpling, I thought about it randomly."

The soup in the bowl was completely drunk, Fang Cheng glanced at the bowl with unsatisfied sincerity, if only he could eat dumplings in the future.

Mu Wan boiled the hot water and the family took a bath. Instead of going to sleep immediately, she lit the candles and continued to embroider. Now that the family has no money, she shy away from doing anything. She wants to improve her living conditions quickly, such as She wants to buy tiles and fill up the leaks in the thatched house. In case it rains, the house will be muddy. She also wants to replace the sheets, bedding and pillows on the bed. Those fabrics are too rough and too thin. She wants to change into new ones, as well as clothes. Now they are all patched up, worn out, and new clothes have to be made. Every time they take a bath, they can only use soap locusts. She also wants to use the money to buy soap.

It costs money everywhere, and writing with a pen can fill a sheet of paper, and the three liang of silver in her hand is far from enough, and the enthusiasm for making money is particularly high now.

There was silence outside, Mu Wan yawned lightly, put the repaired veil away, blew out the candles, and prepared to rest.

She closed her eyes slightly, thinking of other ways to make money in her mind, and not long after, she suddenly heard a dog barking.

Mu Wan opened her eyes suddenly, and the screams from Dahei outside became more and more intense, along with the sound of complicated footsteps and a scream.

Her face turned cold, did someone still couldn't help stretching out their claws?She stuck the scissors under the pillow in her belt, went to the next room, and calmed Fang Cheng who was awakened.

She closed the door, took a hoe, listened to the movement outside, and walked out cautiously with a calm face.

The barking of the dog had stopped, and the courtyard door could be seen wide open by the moonlight. The thief should have escaped. Mu Wan took a closer look at the ground, and there were still unfinished drops of blood.

There was a sneer at the corner of her mouth, and it was easy now.
