Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Seeing her like this, Su...
Seeing her like this, Su Tao fed Li Chunhua two other dishes. The girl's eyes twinkled like stars.
The beans and eggplant are soft and fragrant, with a meaty aroma, and they taste like the fragrance on your lips and teeth. The cold cucumber is crispy, sour and spicy, like fireworks blooming on your taste buds.
"Is it delicious?" Su Tao asked the girl again. This time, Li Chunhua was no longer vague, but nodded vigorously.
"It's so delicious!" She had never eaten anything so delicious before. She had these dishes at home, but the taste was completely different.
Seeing that someone agreed with her, Su Tao smiled with satisfaction.
But the next second she couldn't laugh anymore because the food she brought was almost gone.
She hasn't eaten yet.
Seeing this, Su Tao quickly called Su Li and also joined the crowd grabbing food with a bowl in hand.
In the sunlight, the Su family father and son and the Li family father and son were no different from bandits.
Su Li also picked up the bowl and started eating in small bites. As expected, rice made with new rice is the most delicious. It does not have the musty smell of old rice. It is full of rice fragrance and is chewy and soft. She feels very happy just by eating the rice. It can be said that this is the most delicious rice she has eaten since she came here, especially in hot weather, paired with sour and spicy appetizing cucumbers and river clams that go well with the rice. It is so happy.
In a short while, all the food that Su Li and Su Tao brought was swept away. Even the soup in the bowls of food was used by the Li family father and son to soak their rice, saying that it should not be wasted. However, no one said anything. After all, in the era of food and clothing shortages, people could even chew tree roots, let alone soup.
This meal was so delicious.
After eating and drinking, everyone had a satisfied look on their faces. If they didn't have to harvest rice in the afternoon, it would have been so comfortable to just lie down in the shade of the tree and take a nap.
pity…
"I didn't expect that the clam meat could be cooked so deliciously." Father Li wiped his mouth with his hands and sighed.
Li Shitou nodded when he heard this. He had never eaten such spicy and delicious river clam meat. Even the soup was so delicious. Not only that, but the crispy cucumber and the soft and sticky beans were also so delicious. It was a great match for rice. It was a pity that there was too little of it, otherwise he could have eaten several bowls of rice.
At this moment, Father Su suddenly remembered what his fourth daughter said, "Fourth daughter said that this dish today was made by Fifth daughter?"
Su Qingshan and Su Qinghe looked at Su Li at the same time. At home, it was usually their nanny Wu or their mother Chen who cooked, so why was it the fifth sister who cooked today?
Seeing them like this, the Li family father and son were a little confused. What was going on?
"Yes, Dad." Ever since Su Li decided to make money with her craft, she didn't intend to hide the fact that she could cook. Not only that, she also hoped to get support from her father and two brothers. After all, it's difficult to support a family alone. These days, it's not easy for a girl to do anything without the support and help of her family.
So Su Li told him how she learned how to cook by watching others cook.
Su Qingshan's first reaction was, "Fifth sister is so amazing." He knew that it was impossible for him to learn anything just by watching. He was the dumbest in the family. No matter what he did, he had to repeat it several times before he could learn it. But fortunately, he had a lot of strength, which was something that no one else in the family could match.
Father Su and Su Qinghe also showed a look of realization when they saw this. They were not often at home, so naturally they had no way of knowing much about their two daughters' daily lives. Besides, these were just two home-cooked dishes, so no matter how delicious they were, it didn't mean anything.
But Father Su still sighed sincerely, "It's good." Nowadays, it's not bad to learn a skill, especially cooking. After learning it, you won't have to worry about having food to eat.
It's a pity that he doesn't know anyone. If he can learn from those who go to the countryside to grow vegetables, he won't have to worry about his future. Father Su feels very guilty. As a father, there is really too little he can do for his family.
After asking about the harvest this year, Father Su was silent for a long time and said, "Go back and tell your grandparents not to send food to us anymore. We have food here and we won't starve."
The garrison still needs them to work, so at least they won't starve to death. There is not much food at home, and the three of them, father and son, can at least survive for a while if they don't eat. I just don't know if they will have some free time after harvesting the rice. If so, they can go out to work and save some money to have a good New Year.
After hearing what Su's father said and thinking about the situation at home, Su Qingshan and Su Qinghe also fell silent.
On the one hand, they hated that they were born into a military household, and on the other hand, they hated that they could not do anything for the family and had to rely on their grandparents and sisters to farm to support them.
The young men of 17 and 18 couldn't help showing a look of shame.
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and Su Li didn't know how to persuade her father and brother. It wasn't their fault, but the unreasonable system of this dynasty. Su Li even thought that perhaps Emperor Gaozu of Wei had never thought that the laws he set at that time would become what they are now. It was just that all the regulations changed naturally in the later period. Everything was inevitable in history, but these inevitable things were like a thousand pounds on everyone's head.
.
Soon, it was time to separate. There was already a commotion in the distance, and it was time to start working.
"Then Dad, second brother, third brother, let's go." Su Li and Su Tao said goodbye to Father Su while carrying the basket. The man nodded and instructed, "Go back and help your mother and the others."
"Okay." Su Li agreed, but Su Tao was a little unhappy, "Dad, when can you and brother come home?"
She missed them. It was okay when she hadn't seen them before, but now she couldn't bear to leave them. Especially when she saw that her father and brothers were so thin now that they didn't have much meat on their bodies, she felt even more sad for some reason.
"It's almost there, it's almost there." Father Su choked and quickly looked away.
Second brother Su Qingshan clenched his fists and couldn't say a word.
The third brother Su Qinghe pursed his lips, walked up to touch Su Tao and Su Li's heads, and said, "You two should be obedient at home. When the third brother comes back, I will catch fish for you."
Su Tao, "I remember what you said."
"Okay, I said it." Su Qinghe's thin face showed the first smile in recent days.
Life is too bitter, and sometimes laughing is a luxury.
