After Tang Yuan sent the doctor back to the clinic, he went to buy an old hen and prepared to make soup for Su Nuo.

He rushed home and saw that all the noodles that had been dried in the yard had been taken in, he was relieved.

The wind and hail were so strong just now, if these noodles hadn't been collected in time, they would all have to be thrown on the ground and ruined.

Tang Yuan took the chicken into the kitchen, then went to the main room, and saw that there were two more people than usual, presumably Su's mother had invited them newly.

"Brother Tang, are you back? The wind was terribly blowing just now, and the big hailstones were terribly falling." Aunt Zhou pointed to the drying rack full of noodles in the house. The shelves are all brought in."

Tang Yuan looked around the room, the bag of fine noodles was empty, and the noodle drying racks were all crowded in the room, more than five.

"By the way, before you were away, Niu Da sent ten more noodle drying racks, saying that the rest are still being made, and they will be delivered tomorrow." Aunt Zhou explained.

Tang Yuan knew that Mother Su and Aunt Zhou had put their heart into it, and thanked Aunt Zhou sincerely: "Thank you very much."

"What's there to thank?" Aunt Zhou smiled nonchalantly, pointing to the two aunts who were making noodles, and said, "By the way, didn't you say that if you are too busy, let Su Nuo invite two more people?" At first, she didn't want to invite them, but we really couldn't finish with so many fine noodles, so we invited two people, but don't worry, the craftsmanship of these two people is definitely good."

The two secretly looked at Tang Yuan, their movements were a little stiff, as if they were afraid that Tang Yuan would not be satisfied with them.

Tang Yuan took a look at the noodles made by the two. The craftsmanship was indeed not bad. He nodded to the two: "Thank you for your hard work. Aunt Su and Aunt Zhou should have told you about the wages, right?"

"I've said it! I've said it!" The two nodded quickly.

Seven cents a day!The work is not very tiring, and it is close to home, which is a good job!

Tang Yuan: "That's good, then you guys go to work first, and I'll move the shelf out."

The sun came out again outside, it has been raining for a while, and it will definitely not be raining again. I don’t know if the noodles were wet just now, so it’s better to move out to dry for a while.

Tang Yuan carefully moved the noodle drying rack to the yard, and touched the noodles with his hands. Perhaps Su's mother and Aunt Zhou collected them in time, and most of the noodles were dry on the surface.

The old hen's legs and wings were tied tightly, and she couldn't move around, and she tossed herself to the side.

Tang Yuan boiled a pot of hot water, grabbed the old hen's wings mercilessly, and stabbed the throat with a knife, blood splashed out instantly, and spots of blood fell on the dark soil.

He quickly took a large bowl and connected it to the bottom, poured the dried chicken blood, then poured the boiling hot water from the pot into the basin, put the chicken in, and started plucking.

Tang Yuan had never killed chickens himself before. In his previous world, there were very few live poultry markets where he lived, so he always bought processed chickens.

The chicken feathers were scalded with boiling water and plucked a lot, but some small hairs were still difficult to pluck, and Tang Yuan's hands were sore from plucking.

This old hen weighed eight catties. Tang Yuan cut open the belly of the chicken and took out the internal organs. This chicken was very fat, and the intestines were greasy.

Tang Yuan didn't intend to ask for offal, and it was only a little difficult to handle. He put a few eggs of different sizes and shapes aside, and threw the rest aside.

After cleaning the chicken, he took the neck of the chicken into the kitchen, put it on the chopping board and chopped it into small pieces. He chopped it with great strength and made a loud noise, almost all of them were chopped off with one knife, so that there would be no bones in the chopped soup. scum.

After the chicken is chopped, put it in a basin and rub it repeatedly with water to wash off the blood.

Then put the pot under cold water. The water in the pot should soak the chicken nuggets, then put the sliced ​​ginger to remove the fishy smell, and blanch the chicken nuggets, so that the soup will be clear and bright.

After blanching the water, remove the chicken pieces, put them in warm water, and wash them with warm water.

Tang Yuan took out another casserole, filled it with water, heated it up, put in chicken pieces, and skimmed off the foam after boiling.

Then put the mushrooms, onion, ginger, and jujube prepared before, and simmer for an hour on low heat, then use chopsticks to pick out the onion and ginger, add half a spoonful of salt, a few wolfberries, and simmer for another quarter of an hour. alright.

Tang Yuan has been busy for a long time, and Aunt Zhou and the others are about to leave work. Tang Yuan pays them, and then slowly puts the noodle drying rack in the yard into the house, and wraps the dried noodles in oiled paper.

The chicken soup was almost done, and it was ready in about a quarter of an hour. Tang Yuan thought that Su Nuo was also in the mood to eat, so he casually fried a bowl of flower rice to fill his stomach.

His family didn't have a special cup for soup, and he was afraid that it would be cold if he put it in a bowl, so he simply put the casserole in the basket and carried it over.

Su's mother and Su's father were having dinner when Tang Yuan passed by. Seeing him coming, they quickly stood up: "Xiao Yuan, why are you here? Have you eaten yet? Sit down and eat together."

"I've eaten. I'm here to see Nuo Ge'er." Tang Yuan lifted the basket slightly, "I made some chicken soup and brought it to Nuo Ge'er to taste."

After finishing speaking, he took out money from his pocket and handed it to Mother Su: "By the way, this is today's wages, just right for you."

"I didn't work all day today, so you paid too much." Su's mother only took two pennies, and then pushed the rest to Tang Yuan, "Nuo brother is thanks to you this time, but luckily the doctor said It's no big deal, chicken soup is such a good thing, you can take it home and drink it yourself, we have chicken at home, I'll make it for Nuo Geer tomorrow."

Brother Nuo's injury wasn't caused by Xiaoyuan, how could he want such a good thing from him, many daughter-in-laws might not be able to drink a few sips of this chicken soup during confinement!

Su's mother was very anxious when she received a report from Da Zhuang before. When she came back, she heard Su's father said that the doctor had come to see him and said there was nothing serious.

"Oh! Look at my brain!" She seemed to think of something suddenly, handed Tang Yuan the two pennies in her hand, and hurried to the back room, "Did you pay the doctor's money, brother Nuo? I just now I'm really sorry for taking your money, I'm going to get the money for you!"

"No need for Auntie!" Tang Yuan hurriedly stopped him, "Brother Nuo, this is considered a work-related injury, I should call a doctor for him."

Without waiting for Su's mother to refuse, he immediately said: "It's getting late, I've seen Brother Nuo and I'm going back, hurry up and accompany me there!"

A man like Tang Yuan can never stay alone in the same room with Nuo Ge'er, he can only let Su's father or Su's mother accompany him.

Hearing what he said, Mother Su couldn't pester him for money anymore, so she had to take Tang Yuan to Su Nuo's room.

Su Nuo was leaning against the head of the bed, wringing his fingers boredly.

Hearing the movement, he raised his head and looked towards the door. When he saw Tang Yuan coming in with Su's mother, his eyes lit up and he showed a bright smile.

"Brother Tang, why are you here?"

"Xiaoyuan said he made chicken soup for you, and I'll bring it here for you to taste." Mother Su went to the bed, straightened Su Nuo's hair, and raised her chin at Tang Yuan, "Thank you soon."

Su Nuo looked at the pitch-black casserole with his eyes bent, and his voice was soft: "Thank you, Brother Tang."

Brother Tang's craftsmanship is so good, the chicken soup must be delicious!

Tang Yuan saw that Su Nuo's spirit was better than before, seeing him staring at the casserole without blinking, he couldn't help but soften his voice: "Don't be polite to me, I don't know if it suits your taste, you first Try it, if you don't like it, I'll make something else for you next time."

"Your craftsmanship is so bad! Besides, the farmer's family is so delicate, and the chicken soup is not delicious!" Tang Yuan put the casserole on the small table and looked around, got up quickly and said, "Xiao Yuan, sit down first, I'll get the bowl and spoon."

Seeing Su's mother going out, Tang Yuan moved a stool and sat beside Su Nuo's bed.

"Brother Tang, I'm sorry, I won't be able to set up a stall these two days." Su Nuo lowered his head, limp, like a daffodil that has been sun-dried.

"It's okay, I should be the one apologizing." Tang Yuan couldn't help stretching out his hand to cover the quilt for Su Nuo, and lowered his voice, "I didn't consider the weather. I shouldn't let you go out at this time."

In a few days, it will be the winter solstice, the snow will fall as soon as it is said, and the weather is getting colder and colder. It is better to stop the stall business now, otherwise there will be risks on the way, after all, the road here is not as smooth as his original world , are all dirt roads with potholes, and it is easy to get injured when encountering strong wind, rain or snow.

"No way!" Su Nuo retorted disapprovingly, "Isn't it just that it's getting colder, and it hasn't rained or snowed yet, so why can't we set up a stall?"

No matter what Su Nuo said, Tang Yuan was not going to let him and Da Zhuang continue to set up a stall. He was planning to save more money and buy a shop directly, but looking at the current situation, he decided to rent one first. shop.

Tang Yuan looked at Su Nuowen and said: "Brother Nuo, you have to rest at home these two days, and come to help after I rent the shop."

"Brother Tang, do you want to rent a shop?!" Su Nuo said with a smile on his face, "Brother Tang, I'm actually fine, I can set up a stall!"

Shops can be rented as long as you rent them, it will take a while, and the shops in the town are not cheap even if you rent them. The business of setting up stalls is so good, you can earn a little bit!

Tang Yuan's attitude was firm: "No."

Su Nuo puffed up his face and turned his head to ignore him in anger.

Mother Su came in with a bowl, saw him like this, went over and patted him: "What are you doing! Xiaoyuan came to see you kindly, and even made chicken soup for you, what do you look like!"

"It's okay, auntie, don't scold Brother Nuo." Tang Yuan took the bowl, opened the casserole to fill a bowl of chicken soup, and brought it to Su Nuo, "Taste it."

Su Nuo was woken up by Su's mother's slap, and immediately reacted, his face flushed red, and he lowered his head, not daring to look at Tang Yuan.

What the hell was he doing just now? !He was working for Big Brother Tang, so why was he so ignorant, and even pointed fingers at Big Brother Tang!Will Brother Tang hate him?

Su Nuo bit his lower lip, annoyed.

Su's mother gave him a push: "Hurry up and continue!"

Seeing Su Nuo lower his head, Tang Yuan thought he was uncomfortable, so he hurriedly said, "I'll just carry it."

Su Nuo had the guts to ask Tang Yuan to hold the bowl for him, and hurriedly reached out to take it.

"Thank you Brother Tang." The voice was soft and light.

The chicken soup was clear and exuded a tempting aroma. Su Nuo lowered his head and took a sip. The delicious taste spread from the tip of his tongue. It was refreshing and not greasy, only pure umami.

He looked up at Tang Yuan in surprise, and said in a crisp voice, "It's so delicious!"

"As long as you like it."

Tang Yuan's eyes drifted over his cherry-red lips, coughed twice, and turned his head to look elsewhere.

The author has something to say: Tang Yuan: I am not, I do not.
