Chapter 12 Zhou Fuzi

After everyone washed their clothes and gossip, they all scattered in twos and threes. The sun was already high, so Pei Xiu hurriedly wrung out some clothes and put them in the basin to go home.

She was already so hungry that her chest was on her back. Go home to cook first, and wait for a chance to inquire about Master Zhou's affairs, since he hasn't come back anyway. When I came back, I didn't know if they wanted to run a school or not, and they should be no less than that.

Pei Xiu came back and found that Zhou Cheng was still cutting wood there, and he didn't know what to do with it. After drying his clothes, he went to the backyard vegetable garden to pull a radish and cabbage. It's already autumn, and the original owner has marinated all the pickles before, leaving only the radish and cabbage in the ground. After these are eaten, only pickles can be eaten in winter. If you want to eat green vegetables, you can only pick wild vegetables after the spring.

Cut the pork loin into a knife, soak the shiitake mushroom and fungus, and then fry the pork loin, put the whole pig heart in the soup with angelica and wolfberry, and slice it after cooking. Cut the fat meat into pieces and stir-fry the cabbage, put the **** slices on the river prawns and boil them. A deputy pig went into the water and made two good dishes. It's so affordable, I can buy some more when I go to town, it's cheap and delicious.

A few children don't need to be called, they will come back for breakfast at o'clock. ''Mother, it's so fragrant, what are you cooking again? ’’ The hammer was the first to rush into the kitchen again, and the bench man couldn’t sprint with the hammer.

Mu Tou and Zhou Shan took the worms they caught and fed them to the chickens. They feed all the chickens in the house.

Pei Xiu brought the dishes out, ''Tell your father to eat''.

The wood that Zhou Cheng cut can already distinguish the shape, like a miniature version of a big knife.

Let several children wash their hands first. Pei Xiu asked Zhou Cheng, ''Do you know Master Zhou? I just went to do the laundry and heard everyone mentioning that Master Zhou was coming back. ''

''Well, Master Zhou should be in his forties this year. He is a very learned man, but he was almost unlucky when he was young. ''

''He is still so young, is he going to start a school when he comes back? ''

Zhou Cheng looked at Pei Xiu, ''I don't know, what are you doing? ''

''I want to send a few children to school. I don't expect them to be very promising. It's good to be able to read a few words. ’’ And she also wanted to get rid of illiteracy. She was a top student in 985 in her last life, but now she doesn’t know a few big characters.

Zhou Cheng's eyes were like torches, as if he wanted to see through Pei Xiu, but Pei Xiu looked directly at Zhou Cheng calmly.

Zhou Cheng frowned and said, "How much money is left in the family? Do you know how much it costs to provide a scholar? Not only repairs, but a pen, ink, paper and inkstone is a lot of money, not to mention buying books. Why is a scholar expensive, because ordinary people Can't read at all. ''

''What I mean is that you can send it to study for two years first, so that you can recognize the characters first. Then see if you have the talent before considering whether to continue school. Or you can send the hammer first, and the hammer will come back to teach a few children after learning. You can use pen, ink, paper and inkstone first, let's make a sand table for them to practice first. '' Reading can be sensible, and Pei Xiu hopes that several children can be literate.

''Let's talk about it, waiting for Master Zhou to come back to see the situation, it would be inconvenient to send him to town so small. ''

''Well, as long as you don't object, I also wanted to inquire about it in advance. ''

The children have already eaten at the table. ''Mother, your cooking is getting better and better. '' Hammer is a sycophant, the wood is just nodding honestly, the round eyes of the bench are rolling, and he has put a piece of fat on Pei Xiu, ''Mother, eat more. ''

Pei Xiu didn't like to eat fatty meat, so she put it on the bench, ''Mother doesn't like it, you eat it. ''

Zhou Cheng looked at his mother and his heart was full.

A few children ate happily, feeling like a dream these two days. Mother stopped scolding and beating others. She even gave them delicious food. They were so happy. They want mother like this every day.

After dinner, a few children saw Zhou Cheng cutting wooden knives there, squatted with bright eyes, and circled around, reluctant to go out to play, ''Father, is this the wooden knives that were sharpened for us. '' Hammer watched eagerly.

''Whoever performs well tomorrow will be rewarded with this knife''. Zhou Cheng said expressionlessly

''Father, I have to get up early tomorrow to follow my brothers on horseback. '' said the small bench eagerly.

''it is good''.

Pei Xiu saw a few of them gathered around, arguing about the wooden knife. Regardless of them, she still has lard to cook, and her sister-in-law should come over later.

When the fat was poured into the pot, there was a sizzling sound, and the children were immediately distracted by the oil, and they all surrounded the kitchen. Pei Xiu drove them out, otherwise they would be splashed by the oil. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

After a while, the scent wafted far away. Uncle Wang's house next door was having a meal. He smelled the scent and looked at the boiled cabbage on the table. The whole family's meal was bland and tasteless. And the children of Pei Xiu's family were so lively that they couldn't bear to go anywhere. I just waited to eat the lard residue, sucked it, and the saliva was left. It was crunchy and oily, not to mention how delicious it was in the memory of the children.

Pei Xiu took out a bowl of the lard residue and gave it to them." Be careful of scalding. ’’ Put the rest in a large bowl, and you can grab a little stir-fried cabbage in the evening. Pei Xiu went through the recipe for the evening in her heart.

When my sister-in-law came over, I asked her to wait a while. Take a bowl of lard residue for her to taste.

''This precious and precious thing is kept for a few children. I came here just after dinner. ’’ Pei Xiu saw that her sister-in-law refused, so she didn’t say much and put it away. I plan to wait for the clothes to be ready, and give her some leftover cloth ends.

I used a new small wooden pot that I just bought yesterday to hold lard. When it cools down, the lard will turn into a piece of white flowers. It is especially fragrant when it is used for cooking.

''My darling, Xiu'er, why did you boil so much lard? How much meat did you buy?''. Sister-in-law was speechless and frowned.

''It's rare to go back to town and buy what you need. It's not like cat winter is coming. ’’ Pei Xiu said calmly.

Sister-in-law thinks about it too, ''I won't be so profligate in the future, you still have four children to support, Hammer is eight years old, and will marry a wife in a few years, you need to save more money, these few children, one after the other. ''

Pei Xiu answered vaguely. I didn't care, I was only eight years old, and I was worried about marrying a daughter-in-law when I was just in elementary school. The ancients were really too precocious.

Pei Xiu asked my sister-in-law to go to the house first, and she would come later.
