Physician and Food [Farming]

Because everyone dispersed when they checked Chen Da, and no one stayed for dinner tonight.

Gou Wa only needs to take care of him and eat alone today.and took the silver.

"Then what do you like to eat? It's a small place, there's nothing good here, at most you can stew a chicken and drink some wine. If you want it, I'll buy it right away." Gouwa asked.

The man in white blinked: "Can you still drink and eat meat?" Isn't his family having a funeral?

Gouwa was slightly startled, and then thought that this person should belong to a wealthy family, and he hadn't experienced anything like this before, so he didn't know.

"I can't touch people wearing mourning like Suo Tou, but you are a guest. The more it is like this, the more you can't treat guests badly. It is not taboo for you to drink and eat meat here." Not Gouwa Seeing that he has money, he chases after him.Today he sent money, which is equivalent to giving their uncle and nephew a way to survive.Just for this kindness, Gouwa will serve him well.

"Then there is nothing good to prepare for it." The man in white said.

Gouwa first invited people into the house, let the little lock sweep the floor, then took out all the bedding and made the kang soft so that the man in white could sit comfortably on it, and then sat water on the stove, Let Suo Tou continue to burn paper in the coffin shed, and Gou Wa goes to the entrance of the village to buy wine with money in his pocket.

At the entrance of the village, I bought half a catty of wine, a catty of noodle sausage (intestines made of starch mixed with broth, cheap and meaty) and a stack of peanuts.Then I went to Grandma Zhang’s house who raised the most chickens in the village and bought ten eggs and an old hen.

After returning home, Gouwa picked up two handfuls of seasonings from the seeds scattered outside the yard.Going back to the yard and looking at the lock of the burning paper, he tidied up the paper money piled up around him.

When entering the room, look at the man in white. At this moment, he is lighting a candle and flipping through a book.Gou Wa looked at it with his head, but he didn't know any of the words on it.The man in white looked up, Gouwa only smiled politely, turned back into the kitchen, took down the boiling water, opened the tea pot at home, and poured out two meat worms from it.There was still a little bit of tea powder in it that I was reluctant to eat, but now I can't eat it at all.

After thinking about it, Gouwa put down the basket hanging from the beam in the kitchen, and took out a small paper bag from it.Open the paper bag, inside is a little brown sugar that has hardened.This was bought by her husband's family when the second sister Lanzi gave birth to Baoge. After Lanzi was confinement, she secretly packed two bags and sent them back.One of the packs was caught with a cold last year, and I made brown sugar water for him to coax him to drink the medicine, and the remaining pack has been kept until now.

Gouwa put the brown sugar cubes in the bowl, licked the sugar froth on his fingers, swallowed his saliva, beat an egg in it, washed it away with boiling water, and then carefully brought the sugar water into the back room to the man in white.

"I'm going to cook right now. If you're hungry, please drink some of this first."

Eggs in sugar water are good things that only confinement women in the village can drink.

The man in white looked up and said, "You drink."

Gouwa knew that he didn't like him, so he thought about it, he looked like a remarkable figure in his clothes, and his face was much finer than that of a girl in the village.Maybe I eat bird's nest every day on weekdays.

"I'm still busy cooking. The sugar water is too hot." Gou Wa put down the sugar water and turned to leave.

"Give it to the child. I have a toothache and I can't eat sweets." Then the man in white sniffed his nose, reached out and picked up Gouwa's and put it under his nose to sniff, "What did you take just now? The smell of medicine?"

The white-clothed man's hands were very hot, and it was the first time for Gouwa to be touched by someone other than his elder brother. He panicked with embarrassment, "I... don't have any? How can my family afford medicine? Is it the two handfuls of grass I grabbed? When I came back, I grabbed some vanilla for seasoning."

Suddenly, the man in white let go of his hand: "No wonder. You go and cook, I'm reading."

The man in white raised his eyebrows to look at Gouwa, and saw that Gouwa's face was slightly red, and his little black face was flushed red and black, so cute.

After all, he is a child of sixteen or seventeen, with a shy personality.I really can't imagine how he will live with a child in the future.

Gou Wa thought about it, went out and called the paper-burning lock back to the house, let him drink the sugar water by the kang, and specifically asked him to keep quiet and let the uncle be clean.

Suo Tou pouted his buttocks and sipped at the edge of the kang, occasionally raising his eyes to look at the man in white.A child as big as a bean is not easy to be affected by negative emotions for too long. He was crying in front of the spirit outside just now.

He took a small sip. Gou Wa had been cooking for nearly an hour, and Suo Tou only drank half a bowl.Then he licked it bit by bit like a puppy. The man in white deliberately looked at it a few times. Seeing that the half bowl of sugar water was never missing, he wondered if the brat was spitting in it while drinking. up.

"The sugar water is cold." The man in white couldn't help reminding.

"Second Uncle hasn't had it yet." Suo Tou said, "Don't look at me as a child, I remember that this piece of candy has been in my house for two or three years and I don't want to drink it. I have to keep it for my Second Uncle. Otherwise, Dad will be unhappy .”

Chen Da was mentioned suddenly, and the light from the lock became dimmer: "But even if I drink up, Dad won't be able to hit me anymore."

The man in white was slightly stunned, but couldn't help but reach out and pat Xiao Suotou on the head.

No wonder Gouwa insisted on raising him, who wouldn't like such a sensible child?

When the meal is ready, put the table on the kang.Serve the peanuts and sliced ​​sausage first, and then the egg fried chili and potato stewed chicken.Ask the little lock to hand over the hot wine to the man in white, and then Gouwa stirs the spinach in the pot, beats two eggs in the soup, puts it in a basin, and carries the soup basin into the house. Sitting in the kang, staring at him with wide eyes.

In the past two days, there were funerals, coffins, and serving guests, so neither uncle nor nephew had a good meal.Gou Wa is young and strong, but Suo Tou is only four or five years old, how can he bear it.

The man in white sat on the edge of the kang and leaned against the wall, and when he picked up his nose, he felt the refreshing fragrance.He has eaten and seen good things, but the food made by this dog boy has a different taste.This may be the unique delicacy of rural snacks.The man in white couldn't think of any other possibility, so he could only think so.

The bowls and chopsticks are set up, and the soup is served.Gou Wa repeatedly repeated to Suo Tou what meat and meat should not be eaten. The two of them could only eat pickles and egg drop soup, and the uncle ate everything else.The little lock pursed his mouth and nodded reluctantly.

The man in white stretched his chopsticks towards the chicken, and in Suo Tou's eyes, he only picked up a little wild vegetable as a side dish and put it in the bowl, and ate it with some rice, his eyes lit up.

"Who taught you how to cook?" the man in white asked.

"Isn't it delicious?" Gouwa asked anxiously.He has never cooked for others, even if he left people for dinner in the past two nights, it was the women from his neighbors' relatives who came to help.When he first got the news of Chen Da's death, Gouwa's legs were trembling when he walked, so he couldn't do much work.

"It's delicious." The man in white was not stingy with his praise, "The taste is very unique."

Gouwa heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law taught me. But my sister-in-law only taught me to cook one or two kinds. The family is poor and there is nothing to eat. So I like to try cooking with some wild vegetables on weekdays. I also figured out some It's delicious. But it's the first time I have stewed chicken. The family hasn't raised chickens for many years, and I haven't had a chance to stew it."

The man in white continued to eat two bites of meat, and when he glanced at the lock, his eyes were about to sparkle.I don't think it's funny.After thinking about it, he asked Gouwa, "Do you have any plans for the future?"

Gouwa smiled wryly: "Where did the plan come from? The money you sent is life-saving, otherwise the family would have no rations. When my brother left, he had to pay for it. Not only did he borrow money from outside, but he also rented out the land for five years. Lord, the money you sent me will not be much left when I get rid of the famine and buy some rice. Let me think about it again. If I really can’t live on in the future, I will go to the city to find a rich man to work as a long-term worker. Try. I heard that those who provide food and shelter make a lot of money. At most, they are beaten and scolded, but it is not difficult."

The man in white took a closer look at Gouwa's scrawny body.It's not that he doesn't look down on him. If he goes to work as a long-term worker in someone else's family with such a body, he will probably be kicked out within two days. If he meets someone who is not easy to get along with, it is not impossible to beat him to death.

"You are not suitable." The man in white shook his head.

Gouwa was slightly stunned, and then his eyes lit up: "You mean... you want to find something to eat for me?"

The man in white looked at his grape-like eyes, and swallowed back the excused words.

Some things may be easy for the man in white, but for Gou Wa, it may be to save the lives of their uncle and nephew.The man in white is not a troublesome person, but looking at Gouwa's expectant eyes at this moment, he thought about his situation again.For the first time, I found myself in trouble.

"How many faces do you know on the mountain?" the man in white asked.

"Basically, I can almost recognize it." Gouwa often went up the mountain.The family is poor and has nothing to eat, so they can only go to the mountains to find it by themselves.For example, sour or sweet grass, or insects that can be eaten.Sometimes if he is lucky, he will catch a hare or a snake, which is a fortune for him.

"Tomorrow morning you go up the mountain with me, and I will show you the medicinal materials. When you have free time, you can go up the mountain to gather herbs and dry them at home. I will come and collect a batch when I am free. If you work harder, you can earn a few dollars a month." Two silver coins are not difficult. Your nephew is a year older, so he can take it together."

Gouwaren got off the kang and stood up, his face full of disbelief: "Master, you are not, let's make a joke."

How many taels of silver a month?That is something that ordinary people may not be able to survive for a year!

The man in white knew from his reaction when he saw the five taels of silver that he had never seen money.

"As long as you get the medicinal materials good enough, it's not difficult to make a lot of money. I've seen the nearby mountains, and they are full of spiritual energy, so the medicinal materials must be good. If you don't believe it, it doesn't matter if you don't do it."
