Song Yuanhuanzhi

Chapter 45
The light of the rising sun is soft and grows brighter as it slowly rises.

The sunshine like broken gold sprinkled into the yard, simple and quiet.

The aging cracks carved on the colorful walls are clearly highlighted by the sunlight.

Weeds and wildflowers are blooming in the corners under the eaves, green climbing vines are climbing the wall, trying to stretch upwards and outwards, the branches and vines are entwined with coldness, all over the wall, stubbornly guarding the yard.

Song Huan was wearing a cyan skirt, with a wooden hairpin hanging loosely on his head, and he was stretching under the eaves.

The window lattice on the right was opened, and Fu Yuanzhi had already been sitting under the window reading.

This year is an important moment for him. After the new year, Song Huan will let Adi practice calligraphy and study by himself to consolidate the knowledge of the previous two years, and don't disturb Fu Yuanzhi's study anymore.

Brother is also very obedient, he can do whatever sister says, even if Fu Yuanzhi says "no trouble", he still insists on listening to sister.

Seeing this, Fu Yuanzhi didn't stop him anymore, and only asked Adi to ask himself when he encountered something he didn't understand.

In fact, he has not wasted his time in the past two years. While teaching brother, he has a different understanding.

This process is equivalent to re-learning by myself, and these contents are now more solid in my heart.

Song Huan took out a basket from the kitchen. There were scholars at home, so she couldn't be lazy in the past, but now there is ready-made morning food within two steps, so she didn't bother to cook.

Of course, because I don't have enough money, I still have to cook lunch and dinner, but I'm just a little lazy in the morning.

Song Huan hummed a little tune and went out of the house to Tianshui Lane.

Tianshui Lane is a "snack street" in the middle of the three streets of Dasuo Lane, Wood Comb Lane and Loom Workshop.

It is not complete to say that it is a snack street. It is just a temporary stall, and it will only be open during Mao and Chen. After this time, it will be gone. It is a temporary breakfast street.

Tianshui Lane is not far from Dasuo Lane, just turn left and turn left when you go out, about a quarter of an hour away.

There are small stalls on the left and right sides of Tianshui Lane, and the smell of fireworks blows in your face.

Song Huan looked over one by one, soy milk fritters, tofu flower, steamed bun with steamed buns and rice flour wonton radish cake.

There are many types and many people, most of whom are women.

The hair is all coiled up, some with felt cloth interspersed, wearing patched cloth clothes, some with ordinary hairpins, dressed in clean cloth without patches.

All the people who came were carrying baskets, except of course those who were eating at the stalls.

Song Huan watched them take out bamboo tubes from the basket to hold soy milk, tofu flowers, wontons and so on.

Song Huan, "..."

She forgot to bring the bamboo tube!
In the end Song Huan took eight steamed buns home.

As Fu Yuanzhi and Ah Di grew older, their appetites naturally grew.

Fu Yuanzhi ate three, Adi and himself ate two, and left one for Adi and Fu Yuanzhi as a snack, and kept it until noon if he didn't eat it.

At home, there are pickles that have been sun-dried in the first month. They are made of radish leaves. They are dried in the sun, then washed, chopped and salted. They can be eaten in ten days and a half months. Easy to save.

If you want to eat it, pour out a bowl, stir-fry it with lard, add some chili and garlic, just such a bowl of pickled vegetables is delicious when eaten with steamed buns.

If you want to eat meat, you can also add some minced meat, and fry it a little to make it more fragrant. Adi and Fu Yuanzhi like to eat this very much.

In the afternoon, there was a knock on the door in the courtyard.

Song Huan put the broom in his hand on the base of the wall and then stepped forward to open the door. Seeing the person outside the door, Song Huan shouted in surprise, "Uncle Xu!"

Uncle Xu hasn't changed much from the previous two years, he still looks the same, I saw him laughing, "Fortunately, I asked Lao Lu's address, otherwise I might not be able to find it."

Song Huan chuckled, "Didn't I plan to borrow a car from you two days ago, but I didn't have time to tell you that you were out.

I can only leave a message for you from Shopkeeper Lu and Uncle Liu.

Oops, I forgot while I was talking, I went into the room and said. "

Lao Xu followed into the yard, nodded, and boasted, "It's quite spacious and the lighting is good."

"You can cook by yourself." Old Xu pointed to the kitchen.

Song Huan nodded, "I still have to cook by myself, the county town is expensive, and even steamed buns are more expensive than the town."

In the town, it is usually one penny or two, and when the price increases, the maximum is two or three pennies.

The price I bought today was actually one penny, and she could buy a vegetarian bun for the same price in the town!
Therefore, she decided that before the economy is fully free, she should not be so extravagant. A bundle of firewood is only five cents!
Forget it, this kind of luxury is not suitable for the Song family for the time being.

Affect everyone's mood!
Mainly my own mood!

The sky will send a great responsibility to the people of Sri Lanka!
Song Huan cheers for himself!
Uncle Xu nodded in agreement, "That's true, but there's nothing you can do about it, but in terms of taste, the ones in the county are indeed better than those in the town."

Song Huan couldn't refute this, it was true.

The steamed buns in the county are white and fat, soft and delicious, while the steamed buns in the town are a bit flat. This can only be said that the difference between them is a technical problem.

Moreover, maybe the materials used in the county are not as good as those in the town.

After all, the town is limited by technology.

Few people go to the county to learn this stuff, and in this era, it is adhering to the teaching that apprentices starve to death masters. Unless it is passed down in the family, it is difficult to make breakthroughs in technology.

Of course, if you are willing to give up food, you can study it slowly, it depends on whether you can afford it!
Song Huan poured Lao Xu a cup of tea.

This tea is still the tea from the previous family. In the past three years, she picked the two teas every year without fail. There are also two big cloth bags of tea leaves, which are left over after giving them to shopkeeper Lu.

The tender tea leaves have a strong and fragrant tea taste, and you can drink it for a day if you put a little at a time.

Put the tea into the teapot, steep it for a while, and then continue to brew the second course. Basically, the taste of the tea will not be strong in the fourth course, the difference is that the color is only a little different from that of plain boiled water.

I seldom drink this tea on weekdays, but in the bitter summer now, regardless of whether the two scholars will get sleepy, anyway, Song Huan starts to get sleepy at noon and afternoon. In order to refresh himself, Song Huan replaced the boiled water he drank before with tea.

Not to mention, it was really effective, Brother even ran to Song Huan and told him that he didn't know why he didn't feel sleepy while reading.

After Song Huan found out, he kept making tea water, and occasionally added a piece of ginger when he got tired of drinking it.

As the saying goes, eat carrots in winter and ginger in summer.

Anyway, there is no harm.

Song Huan followed and sat down. Uncle Xu also finished looking at the yard, and asked the question that most elders would ask, "How much money did you spend?"

Song Huan reported the amount.

Uncle Xu sighed, "Renting a house is like this, the price is high, so that's why there are so many slums in the west of the city."

Song Huan sighed, "If the imperial court can promulgate some decrees on renting houses, or if the imperial court intervenes in the construction of houses and renting houses, the price of renting houses can be lowered, the situation will be very different."

When Song Huan said this, Uncle Xu was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed, "You girl, it's a pity to be born as a woman!"

This is not the first time Uncle Xu has sighed. Although Song Huan is incompatible with some things, but in terms of force and some thoughts of serving the people, people can't help but marvel. It's just a pity!
If she is a man and can be an official, how can she not treat the common people kindly based on her ideas? !
