Chapter 20 Delicious Fish Soup
It continued to rain, and it was always dark.

Qian Qianqian held an old umbrella and a wooden stick in his hand, stepping on the uneven dirt road in the mountains, crying as he walked.

I don't know how long I have been walking, and the small courtyards at the foot of the back mountain are almost invisible.

Qian Qianqian stopped, raised his hand to wipe his tears, and cried even harder.

The hills here are very quiet, and the sound of rain fills the sky. Her feet were soaked in the water, and her toes were curled up in tattered shoes. She didn't know what to do next.

The cry was very small in the torrential rain. Xia Zhaoyi was not far from where Qian Qianqian was, but he didn't hear it until the rain stopped a little.

Xia Zhaoyi went out with an umbrella, saw her like this, and said, "Why are you here alone?"

Qian Qianqian choked down, looked up, and was stunned after seeing Xia Zhaoyi, then, after searching for a long time without success, the resentment accumulated along the way rushed to his head, Qian Qianqian strode over: "Ali! what's wrong with you!"

Xia Zhaoyi looked at her wet appearance and said warmly, "Come here first, you can keep warm there."

Qian Qianqian refused to go over and shouted angrily: "You will kill people like this, how can you be so ignorant child!"

Xia Zhaoyi walked towards the leeward slope inside and said, "Have you eaten today?"

Qian Qianqian frowned, stepped on the dirt slope and followed her in. At this time, a faint fragrance wafted out. Qian Qianqian sniffed and couldn't help but ask, "What's inside?"

"I caught some fish."

"Fish?" Qian Qianqian blinked and accelerated.

Xia Zhaoyi sat down in front of a small fire. There was a small wooden frame on the fire, and a small pot was placed on it. The fish soup in the pot was bubbling, and the closer it was, the stronger the aroma.

Qian Qianqian's saliva came out directly, he walked over and sat down opposite Xia Zhaoyi: "Your pot... Where did you come from?"

Xia Zhaoyi picked up a few bundles of herbs washed next to them, tore them one by one, and threw them into the pot, saying, "I picked it up, if I hadn't happened to see this pot, I would have eaten grilled fish today. "

"You sneaked out to avoid them, just to make food?" Qian Qianqian felt that he couldn't understand the situation.

"Avoid, secretly," Xia Zhaoyi looked at her, "they are slow and have no luck to keep up with me, so why did I slip away."

Qian Qianqian felt that his head had also turned into a pot of fish soup, grumbled, and he didn't know what to say.

The rain has gotten bigger again, but it doesn't seem to be able to get here. The fire is burning warmly, comfortably and peacefully.

Xia Zhaoyi folded several neatly chopped small wooden branches in his hands, tied them with grass, and quickly made two small wooden frames.

Qian Qianqian didn't know why, so Xia Zhaoyi used two small wooden frames with a fixed shape to clamp the edge of the small pot, and lifted the small pot firmly.

Can it be...

Qian Qianqian saw it for the first time.

"You can eat," Xia Zhaoyi said, "but I didn't plan for you to come, so I didn't look for a bowl, you can eat first."

There is already a pair of chopsticks next to it.

Qian Qianqian picked up the chopsticks and hesitated, "Aren't you going to eat with me?"

"Who have you seen eating the same bowl?"

"Then eat it," Qian Qianqian was a little reluctant, but he put down his chopsticks, "You made this, I came later."

Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "It's just a pot of fish soup, it's worth letting it go, can't I make it after you eat it?"

Qian Qianqian paused and picked up his chopsticks again.

The fish soup is very delicious, the smell is mouth-watering, and the meat is tender and tender. Qian Qianqian sandwiched a piece of fish, and his mouth was scalded. After a few mouthfuls, he slowly chewed it.

She swallowed a mouthful of fish meat, she was about to be stunned, she was enough to have something to eat since she was a child, how could she dare to expect to eat any delicious food.

It is no exaggeration to say that this mouthful of fish is the best food she has ever eaten in her life.

Qian Qianqian was stunned, feeling like he was dreaming, took another piece of fish and put it in his mouth.

The little girl on the side seemed to be unable to stop, holding a small iron piece that came out of nowhere, and was cutting and cutting it against a small piece of wood.

"What are you doing?" Qian Qianqian asked.

"Make chopsticks."

Qian Qianqian lowered his head and glanced at his chopsticks, then looked at her: "Ali, you are not strong, how can you cut these woods."

Xia Zhaoyi smiled and looked up at her: "Brute force is the work of a reckless man, do you know that hitting the snake seven inches?"

In fact, I didn't understand it very well. Qian Qianqian sent a mouthful of fish meat into her mouth again. She watched her hands nimbly cut there. Every piece of sawdust seemed to come down very easily. Come.

After a while, Xia Zhaoyi cut out a pair of chopsticks, and after grinding it flat, he picked up the wood and continued to cut and chop.

"What is this for?" Qian Qianqian is really a curious baby.

Xia Zhaoyi smiled and did not answer.

Qian Qianqian thought of the business at this time, and said, "By the way, let's go back early, you don't know, you are being watched now."

"Am I being watched?"

"It's Lianping," Qian Qianqian said in a low voice, "Mother Yu mentioned it to me before, saying that Lianping might start to deal with you, and Mama Yu will prepare some good things at that time, and you can give them to me. Lianping, kowtow to her and say something nice."

"Kowtow?" Xia Zhaoyi smiled, "My master said that there is no one in this world who can make me kowtow, including him and my father."
