Chapter 30 Grilled Fish
Along the way, she thought a lot, but it was useless to think too much. Life is lived, not just thought.

The vegetable field was not far from the yard, but within a quarter of an hour, Liu Qingcao returned to the yard, put the bucket away, and went to the kitchen to make dinner by herself.

"It's been a long time since I ate spicy food, so I'll get some grilled fish for an appetizer today."

While talking, Liu Qingcao joyfully fried the marinated fish in a hot oil pan.

Grilled fish is a waste of oil, and the oil will go out in a big circle after a while. After the fish is fried, Liu Qingcao puts the fish balls, potatoes, cauliflower, and lotus root into the pan to fry. Add the spices, chili, and salt to another pot and stir fry. After frying, shovel it on top of the fish.

Finally, Liu Qingcao placed the plate on top of the charcoal brazier and slowly roasted it.

After the rice was cooked, Liu Qingcao took a bench and sat in the yard to have dinner while it was still dawn.

After coming here for so long, she finally tasted the spicy and spicy taste of her hometown, which made her eyes fog up without realizing it.

"It's a lie to say that you don't miss it... Take your time." Liu Qingcao sniffed her nose, forcing herself not to let tears fall.

Yes, who would not miss it, that is the place where I have lived for 20 years, even if I have nothing to worry about, but the love in my heart cannot be erased.

With longing, Liu Qingcao ate up the grilled fish, leaving only some side dishes, which she couldn't eat anymore.

After dinner, Liu Qingcao washed the pots, bowls and pans, walked around the yard, feeling more comfortable, then took out the Guanyin leaves and crushed them, and started making cold tofu.

The night passed with the sound of insects chirping, and when he woke up in the morning, Liu Qingcao touched his stomach. He ate a lot last night, and he still doesn't feel hungry yet.

But if you don't eat breakfast, you will be on the road for a long time, and you will feel hungry and uncomfortable.

Liu Qingcao struggled on the bed, and finally got up and made breakfast.

I still have the leftovers from last night's meal, and I put them in the woodshed to keep them cool so they won't go bad.

Liu Qingcao took an egg in one hand, and went to the kitchen with the leftovers in the other.

The leftovers are made into fried rice with eggs, and the leftovers can be eaten after heating.

Egg fried rice is served with more delicious leftovers, which tastes good and goes well with rice.

Having had a satisfying breakfast, Liu Qingcao hiccupped, got up to pack her things, and caught up with the ox cart to go to town.

Ten days passed, Liu Qingcao repeated the same thing, and the old man Niu who went out to the county town, promised to come back in seven days, but he did not come back.

Liu Qingcao was beating her heart, thinking that something might have happened to him.

After getting along with Old Man Niu for a while, Liu Qingcao was still a little worried when he saw that he hadn't come back.

But the far water can't quench the near thirst, she doesn't know what he is doing in the county town, nor where he is in the county town, she has no choice but to wait quietly for the old man Niu.

This morning, Liu Qingcao made two grilled fish, packed them and went to town.

Liu Jiangbei has been studying at the school in the town for almost two weeks, and he hasn't seen him for a long time, and he doesn't know how he is doing now.

The food in the school is not as good as the food at home. Last time she learned that the food made by Mrs. Yan’s cook is what ordinary people eat, with less oil and salt. It can only be said that she can’t die of hunger. Compared, it is definitely not comparable.

Liujiang North was a little unaccustomed at the beginning. As the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. The same is true for Liujiang North, but fortunately, I got used to it after a day or two.

Liu Qingcao went to Huibailou with a basket on his back to deliver the goods. Ge Hongshan had something to do and would not come back until a while later. Liu Qingcao was too lazy to wait, so he handed the grilled fish to Lin Er, asked him to take their shopkeeper, and left.

Liu Qingcao walked quickly to Master Yan with his backpack on his back. The teaching of Master Yan in the school is also unique. Unlike other academies, he teaches all day long. His teaching method is very similar to modern teaching, advocating work and rest. Combination, so, one and a half hours in a class, there will be two quarters of an hour of rest and activity time.

No, Liu Qingcao has to hurry over there, otherwise she will miss the rest time, and she will have to wait for an hour and a half before seeing anyone.

When I came to Qianfeng Academy, seeing that Liu Jiangbei hadn't finished class yet, Liu Qingcao sat on a stool beside him and chatted with several women who came to visit his son.

"Little girl, are you also here to wait for someone?" A lady wearing a light green silk shirt and wearing a woman's bun, about 25 or six years old, with a handsome appearance, round face and big eyes asked with a smile.

Liu Qingcao raised the corners of her mouth slightly when she saw that she was a married woman, dignified and yet cute.

"Yes, my younger brother is studying in school, and I haven't seen him for a while. I want to come and see, but I don't know how long I will have to wait before going to recess."

"It's coming soon, wait about a quarter of an hour and it will be recess time." The woman was silent, and answered gently.

"That's almost there. Hey, your food box..." Liu Qingcao saw the food box in the woman's arms, and wondered if she brought food for her son every day.

"Ah, this is for my son's lunch. He is not used to the food cooked by the cook in the college, so I bring it to him every day. Look, these are the same." The woman pointed to a few people beside him. A woman, Liu Qingcao glanced over, only to find that they were all carrying food boxes.

She thought to herself, it really is a kid from a rich family who can't swallow the food with little oil and salt.

"It seems that most people in the academy are not used to the food."

"No, many students still eat it in the academy. My son also ate it at the beginning, but only for two days. When I came back, my mother saw that he had lost a lot of weight. She felt sorry for her grandson and asked me to send it to him every day. It's useless for me to say anything, so I have to send it over."

The woman sighed helplessly, and Liu Qingcao also understood the principle of intergenerational parenting. If a grandma treats her grandson well, she will not suffer. Parents want to train their son and let him know that life is not easy, but they can't beat the old mother at home.

Sitting at the gate of the academy, the two chatted for a while, and after a while, the students were suspended.

Liu Qingcao stood at the entrance of the academy, watching a group of people walking towards the cafeteria.

After waiting at the door for a while, Liu Qingcao saw Liu Jiangbei come out.

"Jiangbei, Jiangbei, come here."

Liu Qingcao stopped Liu Jiangbei with a louder voice than usual.

Hearing the voice, Liu Jiangbei turned his head, saw that it was his sister, and ran over happily.

"Sister, why are you here?" Liu Jiangbei said with a bright smile on his eyes and a happy smile on his lips.

"Of course I came to see you. How are you doing in school?" Liu Qingcao pinched his little face and looked him over with concern.

"Very good, sister, Mr. Yan teaches new knowledge every day, and returns it to us outside the town."

"It's fine, don't be too tired, and ask the master more if you don't understand."

"I know, sister, Mr. Yan still praised me, saying I'm smart, hehe." Liu Jiangbei said in a low voice.

"Well, my brother is definitely not stupid. By the way, hurry up and say hello to your wife and come out. I brought you food. Eat while it's hot, or it will be cold."

Liu Qingcao took out the food box from the basket and shook it in front of Liu Jiangbei.

When Liu Jiangbei saw the food box, his eyes lit up, he sniffed and ran to talk to Master Yan happily.

Not a while after Liu Jiangbei left, the sons of several women around him also came out one after another. Liu Qingcao looked at them and found that they were all tall and healthy. The meals brought by the women were basically different, but there were many dishes. Four dishes, one soup, and dim sum...

"The food is really good. No wonder I can't eat the food in the academy. If it were me, I wouldn't want to eat it either." Liu Qingcao shook her head and muttered in a low voice.

After Liu Jiangbei came out, Liu Qingcao sat at an empty stone table, and with Liu Jiangbei's expectant eyes, she opened the food box.

As soon as the food box was opened, the smell of spicy food wafted all over the place.

"Wow, it smells so good!" Liu Jiangbei exclaimed, he had never eaten the dish brought by his sister, and just smelling it made him swallow his saliva.

Several wives and their sons around were also shocked by the spicy smell, and they all looked at Liu Qingcao's table.
