Life in a small village with quiet mountains and quiet waters

Chapter 78 Eat More Vegetables

The rough small solid wood dining table is placed directly not far from the stove, just under the huge camphor tree, which not only covers the glare of the noon sun, but also smells the fragrance of the camphor tree while eating, and a little bit, that It is the camphor tree that prevents insects. Sitting under the tree to eat, the chance of being bitten by small mosquitoes is small.

A small solid wood dining table with a thick farm stool, waiting for all the dishes to be placed on the table, and the stewed fragrant rice with a pot is placed on the corner of the table.

As soon as the siblings sat down at the table, they immediately felt at home.

Sicui served his brother rice with a wooden spoon, and at this moment, Gu Siwei was waiting for his sister to serve him.

"Brother, here you are".

Sicui was afraid that her brother would not have enough to eat, so she did not forget to press down on the full bowl of rice, and finally pressed half a spoonful of rice. If it wasn't for the fact that she could not step on her feet, Sicui might still give her brother a bowl Add two or two meters to the inside.

"too much!"

Gu Siwei didn't eat much rice. Seeing that his sister had served him so much, he picked out half a bowl and put it in his sister's bowl. Eating vegetables not only keeps you full but also healthy, eating too much rice and noodles makes you fat..."

"I wish I could get fatter."

Seeing it, Sicui decided not to serve it anymore, and just eat the rice that his brother brought over.

Picking up the bowl, Sicui said again: "Brother, the bowl in our house is too small, two or three bowls can't fill us up."

The bowls at Gu Siwei's house were all given by Qiao Yitong. Naturally, the high-quality products produced by JDZ cannot be the same as the old thick bowls used by the big guys in the village. How could the bowl I used be able to hold a catty of rice, let alone a catty, even two taels of rice would be difficult.

So Sicui complained about the small bowl.

"Eat less rice, can't you get enough chicken?"

As he said that, Gu Siwei picked up a chopsticks of chicken legs for Si Cui.

"I don't eat rice, and I always feel that I am not full."

After Si Cui finished speaking, she buried her head in cooking.

Gu Siwei chewed slowly, and after eating a bowl of rice, his stomach was probably full. He filled a bowl of soup and drank slowly, looking at Si Cui while drinking.

Sicui's food is really delicious, like a little wolf, he is shoveling rice, his face is covered with rice grains, and there is a sauce-colored line of oil on his cheeks, which is obviously eating chicken gnawing.

"Brother, do you want to eat?"

There is still a small half plate of sugar-mixed tomatoes. The tomatoes have gone down a lot, but the essence of the sugar-mixed tomatoes is at the bottom. The juice that was killed by sugar is sour and sweet, and it is most loved by children as old as Sicui. , so it is not surprising to be targeted.

"I won't eat, you can eat, it's best to wipe out everything on the table."

Gu Siwei said with a smile.

Sicui looked at the group of monkeys around him: "Do you want to save some for the monkeys?"

"No, we can't feed them when we are eating. It's not good to get used to it. After you finish eating, put the chicken bones or something on the wooden donut over there, and they will know that it is theirs." Food is ready," Gu Siwei said.

For the monkey group, Gu Siwei still has requirements, that is, the whole monkey group has to watch when he eats. At this time, any monkey who wants to come up will be cut by Gu Siwei, so no matter how greedy, these monkeys He didn't dare to make mistakes, and he squatted honestly about three meters away from the table and waited.

"Only chicken bones?" Sicui felt a little sorry.

"What do they have to choose? Meat is not their staple food. It's almost enough to give them some rice dumplings. The wild monkeys don't work if they are fed all the time," Gu Siwei said.

After oh, Sicui stopped talking, but began to sip the sweet soup from the plate holding the tomatoes.

After eating the sweet tomato soup and the fried chicken, Sicui set her eyes on the braised eggplant again.

It's just that Gu Siwei really didn't dare to let her eat any more, so he stopped her aloud: "Don't eat this, you have eaten a lot, don't burst your belly if you eat it, keep it, If you are hungry in the afternoon before eating, don’t worry, I won’t rob you.”

Si Cui was a little bit reluctant, but she listened to Gu Siwei's words, so she reluctantly put down the plate, and took a bite of food with a glance, like a greedy cat.

A few times, Gu Siwei almost couldn't help letting her eat it, but he still didn't take a bite. He was really afraid that something wrong would happen to this girl.

Gu Siwei knows that people can eat it now, not to mention other people, but to Liu Fulin, the old man, if you let him eat it openly, he can kill at least seven of the normal steamed buns, and it is not a problem if he performs supernormally to kill nine.

This is not Gu Siwei's bragging, but the average combat effectiveness of the strong men in the village. If it were replaced by Gu Siwei's two steamed buns, it would be in the throat.

Now farmers don’t have much meat to eat. If they want to be hungry and have the strength to work, they have to cook more rice, and the rice is carbohydrates and not oily, so naturally they have to eat more.

"Drink some soup!"

Seeing that Sicui wiped out everything on the table except for the stewed eggplant and half a plate of fried pork with green peppers, the plate was as clean as if it had been washed, and Sicui wrapped everything with rice in it.

"I don't drink soup anymore, I'm full."

Sicui patted her bulging belly happily, and burped at the same time.

"That's great!" Si Cui said with a satisfied face.

Gu Siwei was a little worried: "Eat less in the future. It is best to eat until you are [-]% full. If you eat too much like this, you will easily become a little fat in the future."

"Isn't it better to be fatter?" Si Cui was a little confused.

"It's not good to be fat, the body... Forget it, it's useless to tell you these things now."

Originally, I wanted to give the little girl a health education, but considering that she is now as thin as a big praying mantis, let's forget it and wait until the real girl gets fatter.

After resting for a while, Sicui got up to clean up the table and washed the bowls. At this time, Gu Siwei became the shopkeeper, doing nothing, just like his buttocks grew on the bench.

Si Cui worked very quickly, and the siblings didn't have many dishes to clean, so in less than 5 minutes, Si Cui finished all the work.

So the two brothers and sisters sat face to face under the porch at the entrance of the big house, and began to eat away.

After sitting for a while, Gu Siwei felt that it was boring, so he asked Sicui: "Did you memorize the text you were asked to memorize last time?"

"Which one?" Si Cui didn't know which one her brother was talking about.

Gu Siwei didn't know which one it was, he taught a little casually, and he 'made up' the texts himself, so he said: "The most recent one".

"Snow White?" Si Cui asked.

Seeing Gu Siwei nodded, Si Cui opened his mouth and began to recite: "A long time ago, a king gave birth to a beautiful daughter...".

Snow White was also edited by Gu Siwei. He knew the details, but he just borrowed a shelf and wrote some words for Si Cui to learn.

"Can you write?" Gu Siwei didn't know much about what Sicui recited, but Sicui recited it very smoothly, so maybe the girl learned it well.

"I know it all. Does my brother want me to write silently?" Si Cui looked excited.

"Okay, let's go, let's go to the study."

Gu Siwei snapped his fingers and took Sicui to the small house in the south.

The small house is about sixty square meters, and the only empty thing inside is a table as big as a door panel, and two small stools beside it.

With just this little furniture, although it is a small house of about [-] square meters, it looks empty inside and has a lot of space.

Sitting down, Gu Siwei gave Si Cui a notebook and a piece of paper for her to write silently.

Sicui's handwriting is not very good, and it is impossible for a child who is just learning to write well. The handwriting is not good but the writing is extremely neat. One can tell that the child has put in a lot of effort.

Gu Siwei was more foolish when he was in school, but Sicui didn't have the capital to be fooled, and he was quite serious about learning Chinese characters.

To be honest, Sicui's talent is not very good, at most it can be regarded as low-medium aptitude, but Sicui is willing to study hard and can study hard, so she has made rapid progress.

Learning this thing, the old saying goes that every sowing will reap the rewards, not to mention those geniuses, for a child with ordinary qualifications like Si Cui, hard work will always be the most important talent.

"Not bad, it looks like I'm going to find you a book, and now this kind of thing really can't be used anymore."

Seeing that Si Cui skillfully silenced his nonsense, Gu Siwei knew that he couldn't be fooled like this anymore.

Now there are almost no people in the village who let their children study, because everyone knows that knowledge is a good thing, but they are reluctant to send their children to study. How important this thing is in the future.

Sicui is willing to learn, and she also studies hard. Gu Siwei is going to teach the classics here, not only teaching literacy, but also mathematics. As for the messy geography, Gu Siwei has no ability, of course , English can also be counted as a subject.

Thinking of teaching Si Cui, Gu Siwei began to think divergently, while thinking, he tapped his fingers on the table lightly, making a crisp thumping sound.

Si Cui knew that her brother was thinking about something, she was sensible and didn't disturb her, but continued to concentrate on writing her own handwriting, stroke by stroke with extreme seriousness.

After thinking for a while, Gu Siwei felt that there was no good way, so send Si Cui to school now?Don't be kidding, now the teachers don't have the heart to teach, and the students don't have the heart to learn.

Unexpectedly, Gu Siwei simply forgot about it.

"Okay, stop writing, take a break, let's go back to the house and take a nap." Gu Siwei patted the table and woke up Si Cui who was immersed in calligraphy practice.

"I'll write for a while."

"That's all right, you continue to write, I'll go back to the house and sleep for a while."

Gu Siwei stood up from the table, stretched his waist, then walked out of the study door Shi Shiran, entered the main room from the corridor, entered his own room, and lay down on the bed for a while. Fell asleep.

This sleep lasted for a few hours, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw Si Cui Baba lying on his bedside, looking at him.
