Xia Tian heard someone shouting at the door, so he went out of the house and opened the door. It turned out to be Mrs. Yao.
"Sister-in-law, are you looking for me?"
"The clothes are ready, I've brought them to you."
"So fast?" Xia Tian asked in disbelief.
Sister Yao smoothed her hair with her hand and said in a light voice, "My mother-in-law helped sew it. What do you think?"
As Mrs. Yao spoke, she handed the clothes in her hand to Xia Tian.
Xia Tian took the clothes and pulled Sister Yao's arm, "Come on, sister-in-law, let's go into the house and talk."
After the two entered the house, Xia Tian couldn't wait to pick up the clothes and try them on himself, and then looked at the stitches. The stitches on each piece of clothing were so fine, no worse than those sewn by a sewing machine.
"Sister-in-law, you sew so well." Xia Tian happily thanked Sister-in-law Yao!
She finally has new clothes to wear, and they are handmade!
She has been here for almost two months, and she wears the same two patched clothes every day.
It will be useless if you wash it again.
This time, Sister Yao helped her sew three pieces of clothes. One of them was the one that Sister Yao had made for Shen Nian last time. She had put it away because she had no needle and thread.
Mrs. Yao was also happy. She could earn dozens of cents just by doing some manual labor. How great!
"As long as you like it! Try it on and see if it fits you."
"It will definitely fit. Sister-in-law's craftsmanship is impeccable." Xia Tian said as he took off his coat, put on the burgundy one, and opened his arms to show Sister-in-law Yao.
"Okay, it fits me well. I look much better in this new dress." Mrs. Yao joked with a smile.
However, she saw that Xia Tian was indeed much whiter than when she first met him, and he was no longer the frail person who would fall down with the wind.
"That's right! But sister-in-law's cooking skills are still better, hehe."
"Sister-in-law, wait a minute. I'll get some clothes for Brother Shen to try on."
Xia Tian took the clothes to the upper room and asked Shen Nian to try them on. They all fit well.
He took out thirty cents and gave them to Mrs. Yao.
"Sister-in-law, thank you for your help!"
"What are you talking about? I've also benefited from it. My sister-in-law should be thanking you. She's the one who thinks of me when it comes to making money."
The two chatted for a while about her stall today, and then Mrs. Yao left.
In the summer, I took out the new clothes and washed them in the river first.
After hanging up the clothes, I went into the kitchen and looked at the braised large intestines in the pot. They were almost cooked. In summer, I turned down the heat and let them continue to braise.
There are only two stoves in the kitchen, and braised dishes take up one.
You can only use the other one for cooking.
I thought about just making noodles.
Today the butcher gave me a big bone. Xia Tian washed it first, then split it into two pieces with a knife, lit a small stove, and boiled the bone soup first.
He kneaded the dough skillfully and set it aside to rise.
I'll make some oil-splashed noodles later.
It would take a while to cook the soup, so Xiatian left the kitchen and went to the backyard vegetable garden to pick some vegetables, chopped them up and mixed them with some cornmeal, then poured them into the chicken bowl. He also poured a basin of water and dropped a few drops of spiritual spring water into the water.
This was the last time when two chickens looked listless, as if they were sick.
After feeding it some diluted spiritual spring water in the summer, it soon recovered to its full vitality as before. Then we discovered that spiritual spring water also has effects on animals.
After that, she would drop a few drops of spiritual spring water into the water the chickens drank every few days, and from then on, the chickens never got sick again.
The chickens in the backyard have been caught for more than a month. They are already half grown and will probably start laying eggs in two months.
After feeding the chickens, I pulled out the weeds in the vegetable garden.
The eggplant, pepper and tomato seedlings planted in the field have grown to knee height.
The beans, cucumbers and loofah vines have grown to her chest, and she builds a bamboo rack for them in the summer.
It looks like it's growing well, so I guess we'll have fresh vegetables to eat soon.
Seeing that it was almost time, Xiatian picked a few green onions and went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.
Chen Nian also came out and stood under the apricot tree in the yard, not knowing what he was thinking about.
In the summer, I took out two pieces of dried tofu, fried them with the pork belly left over from lunch, and also fried some shredded potatoes.
Boil water, roll out the noodles, cut them into the width of your palm, pinch both ends, pull and tug, and the noodles will be two fingers wide. Throw them into the boiling water pot, and soon two large bowls of pulled noodles will be ready.
Put minced garlic, chili powder, chopped green onion, etc. in the bowl, take the soup pot off the small stove, use an iron spoon to heat some oil, and pour it into the bowl with a "sizzle". The aroma comes out instantly.
Xiatian brought out the dishes and noodles and placed them on the table in the yard. He then went to the kitchen to scoop out a large bowl of bone soup, sprinkled some chopped green onions on it, and started eating.
Shen Nian had never eaten noodles like this before, so she mixed it according to Xia Tian’s way, took a bite, and her eyes lit up.
tasty!
Xia Tian picked up a handful of shredded potatoes with clean chopsticks and placed them in Shen Nian's bowl. He smiled and said, "Brother Shen, the vegetables taste better if you mix them in the bowl."
Shen Nian tried it and nodded, “Yeah, not bad.”
The two of them didn't bother to talk and just focused on eating!
The next morning, Xia Tian got up, and Shen Nian also got up early.
After having breakfast together, she packed the necessary things into two baskets and carried them to the town on a shoulder pole.
As soon as I got near the stall, I saw a lot of people gathered there.
"Nothing will happen, right?" Xia Tian thought and quickened his pace.
As soon as she arrived, someone discovered her.
"The boss is here!"
"Boss, why are you here just now? I've been waiting for a long time."
"Oh, move aside and let the boss in."
…
Everyone was talking at once, and Xia Tian finally understood that these people were waiting for her.
I breathed a sigh of relief, as long as everything was fine!
Xia Tian put down her carrying pole, and everyone helped her set the table.
