Rouge Pastoral: One Piece for Your Husband

Chapter 5
Ning Dong, who had been signaled by her eyes not to speak casually, finally couldn't bear it this time, and ran to Ning Qiu's side: "Sister, why are you so friendly with her? You bullied us even if you didn't see her." Is this kind of person, they will smash the roof of her house when I bring stones!"

Maybe it's because of having a younger brother in modern times, Ning Qiu always dotes on this younger sister very much.Although Ning Dong is only ten years old, a child from a poor family is already in charge of the family. How could she not understand things that she understands.

"Ning Dong, what do you think I should do? Argue with her directly, and make the relationship between the two families even more tense?"

Ning Dong was choked up by Ning Qiu's question, and then replied unconvinced: "I can't let her go! The second sister told me that anyone who bullies our family is not allowed!"

Ning Qiu also smiled: "Who said that I am being kind to her because I am afraid of her and want to give in to her?"

Looking at Ning Qiu's smile, Ning Dong was slightly infatuated.Why didn't she realize before that the third sister smiled so beautifully.

Ning Qiu continued: "I am kind to her because she is our elder no matter what, and it is only natural for the younger generation to respect the elders. Second, some things should be given and some things should not be given over. If she If you really do something that will bring our family to a dead end, the third sister will not just sit idly by. Today, the third sister just wants to tell you that there are more things that can be solved in this world than confronting others head-on way."

Ning Dong nodded half-understood, it seemed that in front of her third sister, her petty temper would be melted away by the third sister's few words, and she would never be able to use it again.

"Okay, come and help third sister wash the vegetables, I'll go wash the pot." Ning Qiu found the flint, filled the stove pit with dry firewood, took a small handful of dry straw, and lit the fire with the flint.

This morning, she saw that her mother lit a fire with a flint, and with a light stroke, the straw caught fire. When she came to practice it herself, she realized that it was not an easy task at all.She gripped the two flints, her strength was always uneven, and in the end her hands were all worn out.

After finally igniting the fire, she picked up a ladle made of a gourd to clean out the flesh inside, and added a ladle of water to the pot.

There is no more rice in the house. She just dug out some potatoes and sweet potatoes from the field, and picked some rapeseed flowers. The rapeseed flowers in this season are very old, so I guess they won’t taste very good, but it’s better than nothing powerful.

The dynasty I traveled through was called the Great Chu, and it had experienced more than 300 years of ups and downs, and it was a dynasty that did not exist in ancient China.But the customs here are similar to those in ancient China, and the food is also similar.

The Ning family was very poor, and they couldn't afford soybean oil. They usually ate vegetable oil bought from the Zhennan Grain and Oil Store, which was the cheapest kind. It was only a little bit, and the color of the stir-fried dish was good, bright yellow, but there was no oily star on it.

Ning Dong kept watching the fire while she was cooking, because there was no wind in the afternoon, so thick black smoke came out from the stove and the side of the pot, making Ning Qiu cough.

After finally cooking the dishes, Ning Qiu boiled another pot of water, put a few small wooden sticks in the pot, and put raw potatoes and sweet potatoes on top.

Then she said to Ning Dong: "I'll just take care of the fire, the room is too choking, you go outside for a while."

Ning Dong couldn't bear it long ago, he responded briskly and ran out.Ning Qiu sat on a simple small bench and continued to burn the fire.
