Chapter 4 Being the Eldest Sister (3)

I haven't learned how to cook yet, so Xiao Ruo is still very handy in tasks like cleaning and arranging.

The two dolls in the back room were still sleeping, so Xiaoruo didn't clean them up. Children still need more sleep, and they will grow taller if they sleep more.

She only pushed open the door and window of the outer room to take a breath, then sprinkled some water on the ground in the light of the morning light outside, and swept it with a broom.The house is built with mixed civil engineering, and the ground is just compacted soil. Sweeping directly will raise a large amount of dust. Sprinkle some water and then sweep it, and the house will not be full of dust.

After cleaning the floor of the outhouse and wiping the tables and chairs, Xiaoruo stepped out the door.

The village where the Xiao family lives is called Jingzhu Village.The village is not big, with a total of about [-] households. The distance between each household is more than ten meters and they are not close to each other. The fence is your own yard.

Xiao's house is located in the southwest of Jingzhu Village, and it also has two earth-wood houses at the front and back.

The back room is used as the back room, and the back room is divided into three rooms. The leftmost is the bedroom of Xiao’s parents when they were alive.The middle room is divided into two small partitions, half of which is for the twins to sleep, and the other half has three bookshelves through the top, on which hundreds of volumes of books are neatly arranged.

There are many tables and chairs in the outhouse, which is similar to the function of the entrance hall, except that there are many large vats and wooden frames in the corners of the house. The vats are used to store food, and the wooden frames are mostly farm tools and hatchets.

Further outside is the yard where Xiaoruo is now. There are two thatched sheds on the left and right sides of the yard. Under the one on the left is a stove built with stones and clods of soil, and the thatched shed on the right is a simple chicken coop.

It is currently impossible to expect myself to be able to cook delicious meals, and Xiaoruo doesn’t want the scene to repeat itself last night, thinking that Xiaoyou’s small body is not as tall as the stove, and yesterday pancakes had to move a small stool and stand on tiptoe , It really made her feel guilty.

If you can't cook complicated meals, make something simple.At this time, the hens also woke up clucking, and there were rustling noises in the chicken coop.Xiaoruo narrowed her eyes, isn't it just a good idea to give her a pillow when she is sleepy.

A few steps to the chicken coop, ignoring the angry clucking of the old hen, I stretched out my hand and found two hot eggs.

Xiaoruo lit the haystack with a torch, set up some firewood, and set up a pot to boil water.After the water boiled, sprinkle two handfuls of wheat flour and mix them together, then crack two eggs into the pot.The two eggs were instantly dispersed by the bubbles of the bubbling wheat flour paste, and the egg whites were glued together into white egg flowers, while the yolks were still whole.

After all this was done, the sky was already bright, and there were noises from the neighbors not far away, and the people in the village gradually woke up and got up.

Xiao Ruo wiped the fine beads of sweat from her forehead, thinking to herself that this body is really thin, and such a little work can be exhausted like this, it seems that physical fitness is imminent, the elder sister is too weak for this family without the protection of parents Not a good thing.

While muttering to herself how to strengthen her body, she walked towards the back room.Looking at the scene, about two little dolls should wake up too.

After a few steps into the room, they found that the two of them had woken up, but they were still sitting on the bed in a daze to wake up.Xiao Niao was still holding on to her cloak, her thin eyebrows were condensed into a small pimple, and her eyes were cloudy.Xiao Zhao also leaned on the twin sister with a confused face, and the chubby hand was still holding the air slightly, which was still struggling with sleepiness.

"Are you awake? When you wake up, you get up to wash and eat." Xiaoruo went over neatly and pulled one in each hand, making them wake up faster when they stood up, and found out their clothes and put them in their arms. "Can you wear small clothes by yourself? Do you want sister to help?"

After passively standing up, the two siblings finally came to their senses. The chubby pulled his clothes with his hands and began to pull out his shirt and began to put it on his body. While trying to get dressed, they answered in unison: "You can wear it by yourself..."

Xiaoruo smiled and looked at the hands and feet of the two Doudings, dressed herself up, and followed the two Doudings to the middle room of the back room to wipe their faces with cloth towels, brush their teeth with coarse salt, and rinse their mouths.The three of them slept together in the leftmost room last night, which was the bedroom of Xiao's parents.

After washing up, Xiaoruo served a bowl of egg batter for each of them.Although the appearance is not very good, it is better to add eggs and have a fragrance.

Xiao Zhao looked at the egg yolk wrapped in a layer of batter in the bowl, blinked and asked Xiao Ruo: "Sister, shall we eat eggs today? But isn't today the Chinese New Year?"

Xiao's eggs are usually saved up, and a certain amount will be sent to the county town for sale.Only during the Chinese New Year or the child's birthday will I boil a few eggs for myself.

Xiaoruo once again gained a more practical understanding of the family's economic situation.Eggs are part of Xiaojia's income, not daily consumables.But without enough protein intake, the nutrition of the two little beans would not be sufficient. She had to ensure the health of the two little dolls first.To make money or something, she had to think of another way, and it was unrealistic to always rely on saving eggs.

She touched Xiaozhao's chubby face and said with a smile: "Zhaozhao, the hen has laid more than two eggs, and what's more, you and Niaoyou will eat eggs every day from now on, so that you can grow taller." oh."

Seeing that there was an egg to eat, Xiaoyou took a big gulp of happiness, and stopped after chewing a few mouthfuls, and looked at the elder sister hesitantly: "Sister, this egg has no taste..."

It’s broken, Xiaoruo realized that she forgot to add salt to taste... Fortunately, Xiao Douding is sensible, and after adding a pinch of salt temporarily and mixing, the three of them managed to eat a nutritious meal breakfast.

 Captain Xiao finally officially began to live with the baby!
