Silly Hunter's Wife

"Chunzi, are the dumplings ready?"

The impatient Sun Lianhua came on while still outside the door. She walked in front of the Zhao family, followed by her husband Zhao Wu, and finally Zhao Quanfa and Zhou Ying.

"It's almost ready!" Song Chun heard it from inside the room, and hurriedly agreed.

She really felt that Uncle Zhao's family had arrived at the right time, and under Er Niu's gaze, she was at a loss what to do.

Erniu heard this, she smiled, turned around, went back to the kang and sat down.

Song Chun opened the door, and the biting cold air poured in from outside, but it made her feel much more awake.

Taking a deep breath of the cold air, she greeted them out and warmly greeted them: "Sister Lianhua, brother Xiaowu, uncle, auntie, come in quickly, the room is warm."

Sun Lianhua walked in first, and as soon as she entered, she went straight to Er Niu.

When she walked to Erniu's side, Erniu, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, turned around and called her Sister Lianhua with a smile.

When Sun Lianhua saw Er Niu's appearance clearly, she was really shocked.

I don't know how to describe Er Niu's beauty, but if people in the village praise a woman for her beauty, it would be: What a handsome girl!

Sun Lianhua also added a word she knew, Shui Ling.

When chatting with Erniu in the afternoon, Erniu said she was just full, but Sun Lianhua felt that she was more tender than all the girls in Linzitun.

Seeing Sun Lianhua standing in front of her and staring at her with wide eyes, but she didn't speak, Er Niu knew in her heart that Lianhua's sister-in-law also took a look at Song Chun, and saw that after combing her hair and changing her clothes, she looked very different from the beggar she used to be , so I was too surprised to speak.

Erniu smiled slightly, stood up and pulled Sun Lianhua's sleeve: "Sister Lianhua."

Sun Lianhua came back to her senses, and first praised Er Niu for tidying up, she has completely changed her personality, she is so handsome that she dare not recognize her anymore.

Erniu said modestly, "How can it be?"

Sun Lianhua was still talking, but when she heard someone coughing heavily behind her, she recognized that it was Zhao Wu, so she pulled Er Niu to stand aside.

Zhao Wu went straight to the edge of the kang, and then waited for his grandfather and grandma to come over, waited for them to take off their shoes and get on the kang, and then went on the kang by himself.

Song Chun, who was the last to enter the door and closed the door with his backhand, came over to introduce Erniu to Zhao Quanfa and Zhao Wu. She said that the girl standing with Sister Lianhua was the Huang Erniu she rescued today.

Zhao Quanfa and Zhao Wu actually saw Huang Erniu talking to Sun Lianhua after they entered the room.

Although she was wearing old clothes worn by Song Chun, one could still tell that she was an outstanding girl at a glance.

Now that they were getting close, when Song Chun introduced them, they were all as surprised as Sun Lianhua, and they all thought at the same time that the beggar Huazi was so handsome.

Zhou Ying also had the same idea as them. She didn't expect that Er Niu would become so handsome after tidying up and changing into clean clothes.Let such a handsome girl leave tomorrow, and it is still in the wind and snow, this unaccompanied person, hey, how worrying.

After Song Chun introduced Zhao Quanfa and Zhao Wu to her, the second girl standing under the kang also politely called them: "Uncle Zhao, Brother Xiao Wu."

Zhao Wu nodded to her and hummed.

Zhao Quanfa frowned, turned his eyes away and ignored the second girl.

Seeing this, Zhou Ying hurriedly smoothed things over: "Chunzi, Lianhua, go and have a look at the dumplings, okay?"

After finishing speaking, he greeted Er Niu with a smile: "Come, come and sit here, Madam."

Erniu walked over generously and sat down on the edge of the kang next to Zhou Ying.

Zhou Ying grabbed Er Niu's hand, looked her up and down, smiled and said, "What a handsome girl, I wish I had a granddaughter like you."

Er Niu said casually: "Mother, let me be your granddaughter."

"Yo, that's a good relationship..." Zhou Ying could not close her mouth from ear to ear.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Zhao Quanfa, who was sitting next to Zhou Ying, suddenly coughed loudly.

Zhou Ying stopped laughing when she heard this, and she turned to look at the old man beside her, and saw that he was looking at her severely, so she had no choice but to stop talking about Er Niu being her granddaughter.

Curling her lips unhappily, Zhou Ying got off the kang and asked Er Niu to go to the stove to watch Song Chun fish dumplings from the pot with a bamboo fence.

There are four large blue and white disks on the stove. Song Chun puts the boiled dumplings in them. Each disk can hold thirty or forty dumplings. Four disks are more than 100 dumplings. Eat twenty or thirty.

Sun Lianhua asked Er Niu to serve dumplings, and each of them brought two plates and put them on the kang table.

Song Chun took out five bowls, poured vinegar into them, Sun Lianhua and Er Niu ran two more times, and put five bowls filled with vinegar and a bowl filled with more than a dozen cloves of garlic on the kang table.

Then Song Chun went to take out a big bowl, went to the wine vat in the corner, took the wine handle hanging by the side of the wine vat, scooped the wine into the big bowl, checked that it was almost done, stopped scooping, put the lid on the wine vat, The wine was lifted and hung up.

Then she took out two small wine cups, scooped half a bowl of sauce from the sauce jar, peeled a few green onions, took out a piece of bacon that had been cooked two days earlier from the kitchen cabinet, cut it into slices and put it in a small bowl. in the dish.

She put the wine and meat, as well as sauce and green onions on the kang table.

"Chunzi, come quickly, don't be so busy, go to the kang and eat dumplings!" Sun Lianhua, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, beckoned.

Song Chun took off her shoes and went to the kang, and sat on the right side of Zhao Quanfa. She said to the Zhao family: "Don't wait for me, eat, I will cook after eating, there are still a lot!"

After finishing speaking, she picked up the wine that Zhao Wu poured for her, and clinked glasses with Zhao Quanfa: "Master, drink, I will accompany you to drink two cups today."

The wine in Song Chun's house is medicinal wine, with tiger bone and ginseng soaked in it. When most people in the village come to her house, she will not take out this wine to entertain guests. Only the Zhao family and the Wu family next door have eaten the medicinal wine she brewed.

Zhao Quanfa and Song Chun drank and ate vegetables, while the others picked up dumplings with chopsticks, put them in a bowl and dipped them in vinegar, squeezed a clove of garlic with the other hand, took a bite of the garlic, and ate the dumplings in big mouthfuls.

Er Niu imitated the eating method of Sun Lianhua and others, picked up the dumplings from the plate in front of her, put them into the small bowl in front of her, and ate the dumplings with vinegar.With the first bite, she was overwhelmed by the acetic acid and frowned her pretty eyebrows.

She thought to herself, isn't it said that the dumplings are the most delicious? Why is there such a sour taste, which is even more sour than the unripe wild apples she ate on the mountain.

But after the sour taste passed, there was a fresh scent in her mouth, which was a strange taste of something she had never eaten before.

Er Niu lowered her head, looked at the stuffing inside the dumpling, and finally realized that the fresh smell was the smell of roe deer meat.

Roe deer meat and sauerkraut really go well together. When you eat it, the two flavors will blend perfectly and are very delicious.

Er Niu took two more bites, and she soon discovered that she preferred the taste of dumplings without vinegar.

As for the garlic cloves held by Sister Lianhua and the others, she also took one and took a bite.

After one bite, the spicy taste rushed up, causing Er Niu to stick out her tongue, and quickly put a dumpling in her mouth to suppress the spicy taste.

At that time, she didn't know that the white petals were garlic, but she saw that the Zhao family and Song Chun were eating it, and they were eating it with gusto, so she thought it was delicious. .

As a result, it tasted so spicy in her mouth that she stopped eating it immediately.

So she began to eat the dumplings wholeheartedly, picking up the dumplings and eating one.

The dumplings made by Song Chun and Sun Lianhua just now were not small, even Zhao Quanfa and Zhao Wu and his grandson couldn't eat a dumpling in one bite, let alone the other women.

But Er Niu can, she can not only eat one dumpling, but also eat two dumplings in the same time as others eat one dumpling.

Song Chun had a deeper understanding of Erniu as a foodie than the Zhao family, and she thought that Erniu must be starving, and now she couldn't stop eating such delicious pickled cabbage and meat dumplings.

Seeing that Er Niu not only ate up the plate of dumplings in front of her, but also stuffed a large plate of dumplings from the plate in front of Sun Lianhua into her mouth, the Zhao family stopped eating, and looked at Er Niu to eat like a storm thing.Counting, she had eaten no less than forty dumplings. When her chopsticks reached out to pick up the dumplings on the plate in front of Song Chun, a pair of chopsticks suddenly stretched out and caught her chopsticks, preventing her from picking up the dumplings again. dumpling.
