MTL - Futuristic Chef Transmigrated As Mother-Chapter 34 boiled soup
After breakfast, Xiaoguo dried the spices she picked in the sun, dried more than half of the mushrooms, and let Zhuangzhuang put the rest of the mushrooms into a water basin to soak them, and boil the mushroom soup for a while.
There are exactly two large pots at home. After filling the pot with water, Xiaoguo threw all the remaining bones in, put the spices in a bag and threw them into the pot, put a little salt and simmered slowly over low heat, then Go down and wash the whole mushrooms and throw them into another pot. No spice is added. The chicken mushroom has a special smell. After heating, it smells of chicken oil. The matsutake mushrooms are even more delicious, so you only need to add some salt.
After Xiaoguo finished preparing the soup base, she figured out how to get to the market tomorrow. She remembered that there was a family in the village who had a donkey cart. Xiaoguo took twenty cents and thought if she could borrow it. Guo cleared her throat and called towards the room, "Sister-in-law, is Sister Li there?"
After a while, a woman came out of the house, her face was sallow, her whole body had no two pieces of flesh, her cheeks were sunken and wrinkled, and her two blurred eyes looked at the door, trying to see who was coming, "Are you from the Jiang family?" After the Qing came, he walked quickly to the door to open the door, and stumbled on the way.
Seeing her trembling look, Xiaoguo was afraid that she would trip herself up again, so she hurriedly said the reason, "Sister-in-law, I want to borrow your donkey cart."
Sister-in-law Li looked at Xiaoguo and wondered why someone she didn't usually communicate with suddenly came. Just thinking about Xiaoguo, she told the reason, and then brought Xiaoguo to the shed where the donkey was wearing, "Here it is." Said With a bit of embarrassment on his face, he rubbed his arms with both hands and said embarrassedly, "I don't have time to cut grass for it, so it's a bit..."
Hmm... Xiaoguo looked at the thin donkey in front of her with clearly visible bones and couldn't help but worry. Can she carry the pot? After thinking about it, she decided to borrow it. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to go to the market. , "Well, sister-in-law, I'll borrow your donkey cart and give you twenty cents."
Sister-in-law Li looked at Xiaoguo in disbelief, twenty wen? real or fake? "Is it true?" To know that the family has long been unable to open the pot, and even the grass roots have been eaten, these twenty wen can make a family of three live for several months.
Xiaoguo nodded, took out the money and handed it to her. When she accepted it tremblingly, she couldn't help but ask the question she wanted to know, "Sister-in-law, since we can't open the pot at home, why didn't we kill the donkey?"
"The ones raised at home can't be slaughtered, they're all spiritual. Besides, this donkey was left by my husband, so I can't eat it." After speaking, he sighed and looked at the donkey with guilt. I've suffered." I was busy taking care of my two children at home, I had no money or food, I had to take care of the children and looked for food, but the food I found was not enough for the two children, so I could only drink enough water and hungry. It drifts every day when it walks, and has no strength to cut grass for it.
Xiaoguo didn't speak, but nodded her head in understanding of her situation. The ancients said that all domesticated horses, cattle, donkeys and dogs are all human. Sister Li's man was also arrested and served as a soldier. After death, the money is long gone. "Then I'll take the donkey away first and deliver it tomorrow afternoon."
Sister-in-law Li hurriedly said that she was not in a hurry, she could borrow for a while, and she was not in a hurry to pay it back.
Xiaoguo turned around to say hello and led the donkey away. Sister-in-law Li looked at the direction she was leaving in gratitude, and after she was nowhere to be seen, she ran back to the house excitedly, shouting loudly for her children, saying that she was not worried. After eating, my mother can't starve you anymore, so I cried bitterly while hugging the scrawny pair of sons and daughters.
After Xiaoguo tied the donkey, Zhuangzhuang heard the movement and came out to check, and looked at it in surprise, "Mother, what is this?"
"This is a donkey, a donkey." Then he held out a big bag of grass for it, "it's just a little thin."
After washing my hands, I went back to the house to look at the pot. I could smell the aroma as soon as I entered the door, and now the smell is stronger when I open the kitchen door.
