Chapter 60

As for the script she brought back, Xiao Baozhu was not interested at first.

Xiao Baozhu had just learned Chinese characters. It would be nice if she could recognize two-thirds of the words on a page, but ye Xiaoxian didn't force her to read them immediately, but told her the story in the script first.

The girl's family is not interested in these love stories. Just after ye Xiaoxian read the story of a scholar falling in love with an ordinary woman, Xiao Baozhu's interest came.

But ye Xiaoxian only read half and said that Xiao Baozhu would see the back.

Xiao Baozhu had no choice but to read it. If she didn't understand it, she immediately asked Ye Xiaoxian. Ye Xiaoxian patiently explained it to her. One afternoon, Xiao Baozhu was able to read the first paragraph of the story.

Li Hongmei saw her on the side and couldn't help reminding Xiao Baozhu: "Baozhu, look how much leaf cares about you. In order to make you know how to read, it's also breaking her heart."

……

Unexpectedly, Xiao Baozhu couldn't stop reading the script.

When she got home in the evening, she asked Xiao Baofeng, who had just returned from school, how to read the second paragraph in the script.

Xiao Baofeng goes to school every day. His task is to read and read. In addition, he is diligent and has strong comprehension ability. He knows too many words than Xiao Baozhu. He knows almost all the words in the script. Occasionally, a few rare ones are empty. He plans to ask Ye Xiaoxian for advice when he is free.

Xiao Baozhu was a little unbalanced: "Baofeng, you say it's really unfair these days. Why can't a girl go to a private school? You see, after you go to school, you learn much more than me. I can only go to the county to sell jelly."

"This......" Xiao Baofeng didn't know what to say.

Strictly speaking, he enjoys better treatment than Xiao Baozhu. After thinking for a while, he had to comfort Xiao Baozhu and said, "yes, it's unfair to blame the private school. Only men are allowed to go, not women, or your sister-in-law will let you go."

Xiao Baozhu said again, "you know, my sister-in-law brought these scripts back from a young lady. How can the young lady know so many words and read so many scripts?"

"I've heard that the ladies of large families invite their students directly to their homes to teach."

"In the final analysis, we are poor. Born in such a poor family, we don't even have the opportunity to read and read!" Xiao Baozhu was helpless.

Xiao Baofeng thought this was wrong and said, "where we were born is not our choice. In fact, although we can't compare with big families, we are lucky compared with other children in the village. You see, you have a script. There are two brothers and two sisters in law who teach you to read, but there is no Sister Feng in aunt Zhao's house next door."

Xiao Baozhu went to the city for some time and met all kinds of people. When she saw Xiao Baofeng compare herself with Sister Feng, she was not happy: "Sister Feng hasn't even gone out of the city."

That day, Xiao Baozhu didn't help Ye Xiaoxian cook for the first time. The meal was cooked by Ye Xiaoxian and Li Hongmei.

But when ye Xiaoxian saw that Xiao Baozhu was rarely interested in reading, she let her. Anyway, she ate boiled fish tonight. She was the only one who could do it.

In the evening, xiaobaoshan also came back.

As soon as xiaobaoshan comes back, xiaobaozhu pesters xiaobaoshan to teach her to read. All the words that xiaobaofeng can't recognize are rare words. Generally speaking, there are not many rare words. These rare words are usually used in place names. Strangely, xiaobaoshan knows.

"Second brother, have you been to these places?" Xiao Baozhu asked suspiciously.

Xiao Baoshan looked up at the sky over the yard, as if he saw a very distant place, but he only had a calm face and didn't say anything anymore.

That night's boiled fish was very fragrant, especially with some dry peppers and pepper, which were fried with oil, and the smell soon floated outside the yard.

Wang Mudan and Chen Ju also wash vegetables in the yard.

Both of their men can get salaries. They can eat meat every three or five times at home, but after all, there are many families, and the meat can't be fried alone. It is usually boiled into broth, so that everyone can taste the meat.

Wang Mudan and Chen Ju smelled the smell of the fish next door and drooled again.

"Sister-in-law, what kind of fish do you think their family eats? Is it too strong?" Chen Ju swallowed the Tunkou waterway.

When Wang Mudan thought of the "pig's hoof soup" last time, he did not dare to make the idea of the second room, so as not to drink the pot water again.

"It's all a pot of stewed fish. What's important about fish is a fresh one. Just use ginger to remove the fishy smell. Who would put so many star anise pepper? I think the leaves just want to make the taste heavier and eat better, so there's no need to eat more vegetables."

"That's right!" Chen Ju's mouth should be in harmony, but she is still greedy.

At this time, her five-year-old daughter Baoxue came with a bowl: "Mom, when is dinner? I'm hungry!"

Chen Ju was about to say that she couldn't be so fast, but she suddenly had an idea when she looked at the bowl in Baoxue's hand.

"Xueer, why don't you go to the second aunt's side and ask what they eat."

Five year old Bao Xue is not very sensible. Since she was called by her mother, she ran away with a bowl.

Wang Mudan couldn't help but give Chen Ju a thumbs up: "there's really you. You know, send a child. Those in the second room are bad for us, but they're polite to a few small ones."

Chen Ju said, "I don't know if I can succeed. Wait until Baoxue comes back."

Children in rural areas are afraid of strangers, and Baoxue is no exception. When they arrive at the door of the kitchen in the second room, Baoxue looks inside with a bowl. There is a small table inside, but there is a large plate of vegetables on it. On the red soup noodles, pieces of bright fish fillets float on it. Coupled with the pungent smell, Baoxue's saliva suddenly drops to his chin.

Ye Xiaoxian also saw Baoxue outside. Seeing that Baoxue happened to come with a bowl, she thought that Baoxue wouldn't be called by her mother?

But ye Xiaoxian has always been generous, especially with children.

She beckoned Baoxue in, then put two pieces of fish fillets in her bowl, and then said, "Baoxue, the fish fillets are spicy, with thorns, and very hot. Don't go out, just eat here."

Bao Xue was obedient, so she put the small bowl on the table and dug it with her chopsticks.

The first time she ate something spicy, it was spicy as soon as she ate it, but it was spicy. Xiaobaoxue couldn't stop eating the fish, so she ate it while breathing, and soon ate both fish fillets.

Ye Xiaoxian put a cucumber and some bean sprouts into her bowl: "this is also spicy. You should eat it slowly."

Bao Xue ate happily.

Children are easy to be full. Besides, the fish is a little spicy. After eating cucumber and bean sprouts, Baoxue ran out happily with an empty bowl.

Chen Ju outside saw that Baoxue came out for so long and couldn't help calling Baoxue in front of her: "Baoxue, did you eat in there?"

"Yes, there are fish, melons and bean sprouts."

"Why don't you... Why don't you get some for your mother?" Chen Ju asked.

Bao Xue has big eyes. Can you still do this?

"Forget it, if you want to go again, people won't pay attention to you. Just play!" Chen Ju is not angry.

Baoxue immediately ran away.

Just then, Xiao Baocheng came out of the house.

Wang Mudan's eyes lit up and quickly waved Baocheng in: "Baocheng, come here and tell you something."

"What's up?" Xiao Baocheng asked.

"Go and see what's delicious over there. Take a bowl and see if you can get some back?"

Xiao Bao is ten years old in Chengdu and has been to a private school again. He knows that his mother is greedy. He said coldly: "no, go yourself!"

After that, Baocheng turned around and went into the house to practice calligraphy.

"You..."

……

However, that night, Wang Mudan and Chen Ju ate boiled fish after all.

As a rule, if you eat fish here, you must send some to old man Xiao.

But the old man Xiao ate light all his life. He was used to boiled fish with spicy pepper and salty pepper. He only tasted it and spit it out with a "bah".

"What's this thing? It's a good fish. It's like this!"

Then he threw the fish in the middle of the table, which means who likes to eat.

Wang Mudan and Chen Ju immediately took down their chopsticks. The reaction speed was like crocodile predation. They immediately caught the fish fillets.

They immediately put it in their mouths. Although the fish was a little cold, it was still very delicious, spicy and spicy. It tasted great.

Xiao iron tree and Xiao copper tree also tasted one piece and said it was delicious, including Xiao Baofeng and Xiao Baoyang.

Xiao Tieshu also said, "son of a bitch, if you have time, ask your second brother and sister to see how they do it. We'll do it next time."

As soon as Xiao Tieshu finished speaking, he was scolded by the old man Xiao: "what do you do? Don't show such an ugly thing on this table!"

"..." they share a kitchen and can't open a small stove. Wang Mudan and Chen Ju are very bent.

……

The next day.

Xiao Baozhu got up early in the morning.

Her job is to make jelly.

But ye Xiaoxian doesn't sell pancakes now, so ye Xiaoxian goes to help Baozhu and asks Baozhu, "why do you get up so early today?"

Xiao Baozhu hesitated and said, "sister-in-law, I want to... Don't you want to go to the county today?"

"Do you want to be at home alone?" Ye Xiaoxian asked suspiciously, "we all go to the county, and Baofeng goes to the private school. If you're alone at home, what do you have for lunch?"

"Isn't there still porridge? I'll just have some porridge and dried radish!" Xiao Baozhu said, "I mainly want to read the script at home and read more words by the way."

"Well... Well, it's rare that you want to learn Chinese characters so much, so you can read at home!" Ye Xiaoxian said.

She thought Baozhu was pitiful. A girl of 12 or 13 years old would be spoiled by her parents if she put it in modern times.

But in the twinkling of an eye, she's not very old. She's only 16 here. In modern times, don't you have to worry about anything other than learning?

It's all fate!
