After Captain Zhao left, Su Xia continued her quiet life. When Niuniu started school, the house immediately became much quieter.
When Baobao goes out for half a day, he either goes to play with Goudan next door or goes out to find his friends.
But I listened to Su Xia and went home when the sun was about to rise.
I could hear Xiaobao's shouting from a distance.
"Mom, I'm back!" Su Xia glanced at Erbao who opened his eyes.
Pointing at Xiaobi angrily, "Don't learn from your brother!"
"Eeyah, eyah—"
Su Xia rolled her eyes and asked, "Call me mom?"
"Ya-ya-ya--" Erbao's Martian language is still "ya-ya".
Su Xia didn't teach anymore. As soon as she put Erbao into the stroller, she heard a bang and the door was opened and closed.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Xiaobao came running over and asked curiously when he saw his brother being put into the stroller.
"What do you think?" Su Xia looked dumbfounded.
"Ya---" When Erbao saw Xiaobao, his eyes immediately lit up and he waved his little hands as if to say hello.
꺶Bao껩 was happy and was about to hold hands, but then he remembered that he had not washed his hands, so he put it down.
Bending over to coax Erbao, "Brother, my hands are dirty. Wash them in a while and let's play together!"
Su Xia took the two children to the kitchen, thinking, do I have to cook again in the afternoon?
On the other hand, I sighed and didn’t know what to do?
"Mom, what are we having for lunch?" Xiaobao, who had just come back from washing his hands, asked Su Xia while teasing his younger brother.
Su Xia---
Suddenly I asked Bao out of curiosity, "What do you think we should eat for lunch?"
Hearing this, Bao thought about it, then looked at Su Xia with his eyes open. "How is it?"
Su Xia--
It seems that I didn’t eat enough, but there are only 2 pounds of bacon left from the meat I bought last time. It can be fried or stir-fried, and it is salty and hard when used as stuffing.
"You stay here and watch over your brother. I'll go pick some vegetables."
Su Xia had already thought about what to eat. Seeing Xiao Bao nod, she put on her straw hat and went to the backyard to cut two handfuls of leeks, cucumbers, green onions and coriander.
I went to check on the cantaloupe and watermelon again. Ever since I sold two of them last time, Chen's parents said they didn't dare to take anything to eat. They said that if they ate one watermelon, they would see that they had ten yuan left, and they couldn't sleep because of the pain.
Su Xia thought it was funny, but when she saw a ripe watermelon, she picked it and walked to the well together.
First, clean the cucumbers and watermelons, then wash the leeks and other picked vegetables.
Then he returned to the kitchen and saw that Xiaobao was playing with Erbao, so he continued to work.
Chop the chives, fry the eggs and put them in, add seasonings, and the chive and egg filling will be ready soon.
"Mom, do we want to eat vegetarian dumplings?" Xiao Bao asked curiously.
Su Xiaxiao used to make dumplings, but only twice during the Chinese New Year.
This year, because Chen's parents came over, Su Xia had no chance to use the space, so naturally there were fewer opportunities to eat meat.
So I rarely don’t eat leek and egg filling, I always eat meat filling.
Su Xia scooped two bowls of noodles and saw Xiao Bao stealing eggs. She was not angry and said, "I'll make you something new to eat today!"
Hearing this, Xiaobao looked at Su Xia in front of him curiously, and couldn't help wondering if this was the step of making dumplings.
Su Xia boiled the noodles in boiling water, and after a while, she started to cook the noodles.
Then cut it into small pieces, which are twice as big as dumplings.
At this time, Niuniu came back to eat, saw what Su Xia made, and was curious why the dumplings were so delicious today?
"Mom, what do you need me to do?" Niu Niu washed her hands, teased Erbao for a while, and then came to find Su Xia.
Su Xia is going to make you leek boxes today. She has never made them before because she simply didn't think of it or she is just lazy. But when Chen Jianguo is in trouble, she still needs help.
Hearing Niuniu's words, Su Xia had just finished wrapping half of the box. "Light the fire in the pot first, don't overdo it!"
Niuniu nodded, moved a small stool, sat on it, started to put firewood and light the fire.
When Su Xia saw the pan was hot, she began to pour oil and put the leek boxes in one by one.
Soon the whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of hot oil.
"Hmm... It smells so good. What are you cooking?" Mother and Father Chen came home from work and came to eat as usual. Before they even entered the kitchen, they fell asleep through the open back door of the kitchen and smelled the fragrance.
Su Xia's mother and the other two saw Chen's father and mother, who continued to immerse themselves in the leek boxes in the pot.
When the flip side comes out, the browned skin looks so appetizing.
Mother Chen came over, her eyes opened wide immediately, the corners of her mouth trembled as she wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to say it!
Because the oil in the pot is almost enough for her to cook for a month.
"Mom, can you help me get the vegetables from the well?" Su Xia looked at Chen's mother, her eyes almost popping out of her head if she stayed there.
Mother Chen left, thinking she didn't know what she saw, but when she saw the cool watermelon in the bucket, she seemed to see 10 yuan being washed away.
My eyes were twitching in pain.
When he came back, Su Xia's second pot of chive dumplings had already been put into the pot and turned over. Chen's father sat at the table with his son, staring at the baked dumplings.
While the food was still cooking, Su Xia prepared a cold cucumber dish, and then some leftover millet porridge from the morning, adding some hot water.
After the second pot of dumplings came out of the pot, Su Xia invited the family to eat.
Xiaobao couldn't wait to pick one up and put it in his bowl, not caring that it had just been out of the pot. He took a bite and it was so hot that he couldn't bear to spit it out.
Su Xia glared at him angrily and said, "Eat slowly, no one is trying to snatch it from you!"
Xiaobao didn't say anything until he swallowed it, and then he started to wait until it cooled down before eating.
"Oh - no wonder Baobao was anxious, it's so delicious. I didn't expect it to be so delicious even without meat?" Father Chen was already eating the second one.
Mother Chen is, now she is no longer in pain, but she is still passionate about food.
Niu Niu gave a thumbs up. Su Xia enjoyed the meal. After a long time, she almost forgot some simple and delicious food. She couldn't just live with those few things all day long.
Poor Erbao, he kept smelling the food but couldn't eat a single bite.
놙 can keep babbling to express dissatisfaction.
After the meal, there was not a single leek box left. Su Xia cut the watermelon in half and put it on the table.
The family ate together. Xiao Bao was still savoring what he had just eaten and looked at Su Xia, "Mom, can we eat leek boxes tomorrow?"
Others had enthusiastic eyes and faces full of anticipation.
"Okay, if we can't finish the leeks and eggs at home, I'll make them for you tomorrow!"
Several people were happy at this, except Chen's mother who was staring at the watermelon in a daze.
"Grandma, why don't you eat?" Niu Niu asked curiously.
Chen's mother stared at the watermelon and said, "I just feel a little hurt when I think about the 10 yuan being gone in an instant."
Niu Niubao immediately moved the watermelon over to prevent it from being snatched away by Chen's mother.
Father Chen finished his meal in a few bites and immediately left. Su Xia continued eating calmly.
Erbao followed suit and babbled, as if to say, "I didn't eat it, did I?"
Chen's mother---
I stuttered in anger. Really, the family doesn't even know how to live, how can they eat it with just ten dollars?
In order to satisfy her family's enthusiasm for boxed dumplings, Su Xia had boxed dumplings stuffed with leeks and eggs for several consecutive days, and then with pumpkin and egg fillings, until several people clamored for porridge, and then she changed the menu.
Su Xia chuckled - I just want you to eat enough.
