Reborn 1960 The little orphan girl has some money

In the kitchen, An Moxue sat on a small bench and lit a fire. She watched Aunt Ma put three large pieces of corn dough into a pot of boiling water, boiled them, took them out, put them in a basin and started kneading the dough.

"Auntie, why are you kneading this after cooking?"

"never seen it?"

"No."

"Look, the soup is about to be made." I saw Aunt Guo take out a small iron object from the cupboard and put it on her hand. She put her hands together, holding a handful of corn noodles, and put it towards the pot of boiling water. Squeeze out the noodles one by one and they come out.

"Auntie, are these corn noodles?"

Aunt Guo suppressed a smile and said, "You can call it that."

After a while, the half-pot noodles turned into golden noodles.

"Moxue, cook for another 2 minutes and then take it out of the pot. Then brush the pot. I will fry another potato and mushroom meat sauce, and we can eat." Aunt Guo said while cutting potatoes in her hands.

The noodles are ready, An Moxue serves them out, and the house is filled with the aroma of cornstarch.

"Auntie, it smells so good!"

"Okay, just go inside and wait! You're not needed anymore."

After a while, Aunt Guo entered the room carrying a large bowl of potato and mushroom meat sauce and a bowl of salted coriander.

Aunt Guo sat on the kang, filled a bowl of cornmeal soup for An Moxue, and placed it in front of him. Uncle Guo gave him a spoonful of potato and mushroom meat sauce, added a little coriander, and said, "Mix it up." It’s ready to eat, you have a taste.”

An Moxue looked at him with eyes full of hope.

Is this place full of longing for my mother?

An Moxue picked up the chopsticks, mixed a bowl of noodles, and took a bite. It was unexpectedly smooth and salty.

An Moxue raised her head and saw Uncle Ma still looking at her. She swallowed the noodles, showed a big smile, and said, "Uncle Ma, it's delicious! I love eating it!"

She wasn't coaxing Uncle Ma, she really thought it was delicious.

Uncle Ma watched her eat deliciously, and was sweating profusely by the end of the meal. He smiled from ear to ear and joked: "It seems you really love to eat!"

"Uncle Ma, I didn't expect food made from corn to be so delicious. I thought it was just like the tough corn pancakes that make my throat crackle!"

"The corn flour pancakes are irritating my throat. It seems you haven't eaten much whole grains before."

"I eat, but it's very little. My parents have a high salary and my family has a small population. If they have enough money, there is no need to eat whole grains. Some families have too many children and don't have enough to eat, so they will trade fine grains with my mother for coarse grains."

"Uncle Ma, have you eaten the venison I brought you last time? One day I will go up the mountain to get something else. I didn't expect this venison fried sauce to be quite delicious."

"No, there are still many at home! There is heavy snow in the mountains now, and it is the coldest time. Try to go up the mountain as little as possible to avoid frostbite."

"Fine!"

After eating, An Moxue stopped sweating and returned to her home.

Until now, the house is still cold. There has been no fire for more than ten days. As you can imagine, the temperature is the same as outside, and everything is frozen to the bone.

An Moxue lit the fire first, waited until the water in the pot was hot, then filled a basin of water and started scrubbing the house.

The fire didn't stop once it started, and the house didn't get warm until the next morning.

An Moxue also realized that the cold weather in the North was so cold that water turned into ice.

When I came back this time, it was obviously much colder when I got off the train than when I left.

The cold weather cannot stop the enthusiasm of the children in the village.

Some children nearby saw smoke coming from the chimney of An Moxue's house. When they knew she was back, several children came to see her.

"Sister Mo Xue, are you at home?" The children all knew that she had a wolf at home and never entered the yard. They always called her from outside the gate.

An Moxue opened the door and said, "Come in! The two little ones are not at home today. They are safe."

After hearing what she said, the children filed in, chattering to An Moxue.

"Sister Moxue, do you have to spend a lot of money when you go out for so many days this time?" Juhua asked curiously.

"Yes!"

"It's so hard to make money! Sister Mo Xue, you have to save some money." Dafu persuaded with sincerity, as if he was a young adult.

An Moxue held back her laughter.

"Sister Moxue, do you have time today? Let's go fish digging!"

An Moxue looked at them and asked, "Why are you all gathered together?"

There were more than ten boys and girls, some from nearby neighbors and some from the village. Basically, these children were all befriended by An Moxue while taking candy during the autumn harvest.

Dafu was the first to answer: "Sister Moxue, we had made an appointment to go fishing together. Didn't I see the smoke coming out of your chimney, so I thought that if you came back, I would ask you if you would go. "

"Are you allowed to cut fish? Isn't this illegal?"

"It's okay, the kids in the village do it every year and no one cares about it. Sister Mo Xue, are you going or not?" Dafu asked anxiously.

"Even if I go, you have to tell me what tools I need, right? How about grabbing it with bare hands?"

"Do you have a pickaxe? Get one for cutting ice, and we've got the rest."

An Moxue said, "Wait, I'll put on my clothes and go with you."

After she finished speaking, the children exited the house with a clatter just as they had come.

When An Moxue locked the door and came out with a pickaxe, she saw that each of the children had tools in their hands, some of which she couldn't even name.

"Let's go! Lead the way."

An Moxue followed the children to the small river in the east. The river surface was not wide. The river was formed by water from the mountains and flowed all the way to the Ursu River.

This has always been a paradise for children. They fish here in spring, catch fish here in summer, fish here in autumn, and dig fish here in winter.

They are extremely familiar with this place.

Several older children skillfully divided the labor, and An Moxue was a tool man.

When the older children find the holes in the ice, An Moxue is responsible for chipping the ice and digging holes. Next to the holes dug, there will be children holding fish food and starting to bait and fish.

She finally understood that they were looking for her just to make her use tools as a coolie.

An Moxue laughed while chipping away at the ice, and everyone looked like a little devil.

Just when Dafu came over, An Moxue deliberately asked with a straight face: "Datou, are you looking for me just for the pickaxe in my hand and my strength?"

"Oh! How could it be possible? Sister Moxue, you are overthinking it. It was just a coincidence that we saw you coming back and thought of bringing you here so that we could dig fish together. What about you! If we have the tools, we will It's more relaxed. We made an appointment yesterday."

"Okay! I'll trust you for now."

Dafu touched the non-existent sweat on his forehead and thought to himself, Sister Mo Xue is really hard to fool!

The river is not deep and the holes in the ice are not big.After a while, some children caught fish, but they were all small fish, crucian carp, and loach. These two were the most common. After An Moxue finished digging the hole, he also took some fish food and fished in an ice cave.It may be that there are many fish, or it may be that holes have been dug and there is fresh air.The children shouted from time to time.

"I caught a fish!"

"Wow! I caught a crucian carp too!"

"Ah! Mine is so big!"

The children quickly gathered around and then separated quickly.

In this way, they cut ice and fished in the river for more than two hours, and they harvested a lot. Finally, An Moxue said that it had been a long time and she was afraid of freezing, so she drove the children back and promised to come back with them one day. .

An Moxue went home with the few crucian carp she was assigned.
