Peasant Girl's Jingxiu Pastoral

Chapter 145 The Desolate Nine Gate Village

After hearing her mother's inquiry, Yue Yue also told her mother the reason, and did not hide it at all. She thought that there were also ducks in the village, and maybe they could be bought.

With the mentality of giving it a try, Yue Yue told her an important material that she had forgotten. When Fang heard this, she touched the top of Yue Yue's head with a smile, and then told her that duck eggs can be bought. Someone in the village feeds her, so she doesn't have to worry.

After Fang finished speaking, she turned around and left the kitchen, and then found some loose money for her husband Ouyang Chun, asking him to go to the village to find out which ones sell duck eggs, and hurry up to buy some.

After hearing this, Ouyang Chun didn't ask any further questions, but quickly took the money from his wife Fang, and then called his youngest son to walk towards the densely populated village.

When Fang returned to the kitchen again, she told Yun Yue, who was meeting with her at this time, that she had asked her father to go to the village to buy it.

When Yue Yue heard this, she nodded, and then mixed the alkaline water, raw oil, and eggs that had been prepared a little bit.

When Ouyang Chun and his son bought the duck eggs and went home, Fang's mother and daughter had already rolled out the dough, and then Yanyue took the duck eggs and became a teacher. Her mother and her eldest sister watched intently, for fear of missing the production process.

As for Yue Yue, she also carefully made the mooncakes according to the method she remembered. After the first one was made, Yue Yue realized that it was annoyed that there was no mold.

I saw that the mooncakes she made with her hands looked completely different, but even so, she couldn't solve it at this time. After all, the dough was wrapped in pure egg yolk, and it might overflow if you don't pay attention.

Therefore, she could only grope patiently and slowly, and made the oval mooncake in her hand into a round shape, which looked like a modern mooncake.

Finally, after she did four or five, the shape became better and better, and her mother and her eldest sister also slowly tried to make it.

Seeing her mother and her eldest sister's cautious appearance, the smile on her face disappeared, while her father and her younger brother were also attracted by what they had done, so they also quietly slammed Looked aside.

Fang looked at her curious husband and youngest son, and didn't urge them to leave. Instead, she shook her head amusedly, and continued to work hard.

When she finally finished making all the rolled dough, Yanyue's mother hurried out of the kitchen, went to the room where they were resting, found two oil lamps, and then took them to the kitchen, lit them with a torch, and put them on the stove. On the stove, the kitchen instantly brightened up a lot.

However, at this time, Yueyue was a little worried again, thinking, making moon cakes is really not that simple, let alone the lack of molds, let alone the lack of ovens, but only then did she find out that their house didn’t even have an oven. Even if you borrow it when the time comes, it will be too late.

Therefore, Yue Yue made a decision silently in her heart. She wanted to try boldly to see if she could bake the mooncakes she wanted in an iron pan.

Just do it, Yanyue first asked her elder sister to light the stove of the small pot, and the fire should not be too high. When the pot was heated, she used a little raw oil to rinse the pot, and then took the pot they made. Failed products, began to experiment.

Finally, after Yue Yue anxiously and nervously made a few failed products, her tense nerves were relaxed at this moment.

So, under the anticipation of the mother and daughter, they couldn't wait to grab one and taste it.

When taking the first bite, Yue Yue was quite worried, fearing that if he didn't succeed, the taste would be bad.

But what she didn't expect was that the taste of the mooncake, which was a test product, was not bad, and it was even quite delicious.

In this way, Yue Yue became more confident, so when the three of them, the mother and daughter, finished eating their respective mooncakes, Yue Yue started to get busy again.

After all the mooncakes were ready and out of the pan, Yue Yue counted them, and found that there were no more, no less, and there were just about thirty undamaged mooncakes.

Looking at the rows of bright yellow mooncakes on the chopping board, Yue Yue stretched her waist in relaxation, then called her elder sister, and helped her hammer her back and some sore shoulders.

After the mooncakes cooled down, Yanyue found out the high-quality oiled paper she bought in the town at noon, and then wrapped the mooncakes individually with her mother and eldest sister.

After the mother and daughter packed up and returned to the main room, they found that the youngest, Ouyang Mu, had fallen asleep in his father's arms.

Seeing that her youngest son had fallen asleep, Fang said to her husband, "How long have you been sleeping? Why don't you put it on the bed, it's easy to catch a cold if you sleep like this."

Hearing his wife's question, Ouyang Chun replied unhurriedly: "Didn't he just fall asleep? I wanted to let him sleep first, so that he wouldn't wake up when he was released."

"Oh, that's it. Let's put it on the bed and sleep now. Yue Yue has made mooncakes, which are delicious. I left a few on the cutting board in the kitchen. You will try them later."

"OK, all right."

After Ouyang Chun finished answering, he stood up holding his youngest son and went to the back room. When he came out again, he went directly to the kitchen.

After a while, Yue Yue saw her father holding a plate with several mooncakes on it, and the mooncakes on this plate were exactly what they left behind just now.

After her father sat down with the moon cakes, he held out the plate to her. However, for Lu Yue who had already tasted it, the moon cakes on the plate were no longer attractive, so she refused to accept them instead.

Seeing that the second girl didn't eat, Ouyang Chun handed the plate to his wife Fang Shi who was sitting at the side. Seeing this, Fang Shi said directly: "This is specially reserved for you father and son. Since Mu'er has rested , forget it, you can eat quickly."

Before her husband could answer, Fang seemed to know what he was going to say, so she went on to say: "As for us, we have already eaten in the kitchen just now, so hurry up and eat."

Seeing this, Ouyang Chun nodded, and then took a plate and started to eat silently. After he took a bite, he asked Yunyue in surprise, "Yueyue, these mooncakes are delicious."

"Well, the taste is not bad, but due to the lack of several making tools, the mooncakes are actually not so perfect."

"So, I decided to wait for a while when I'm not busy, so I will draw some tools and find someone to make them. By this time next year, I will be able to make mooncakes with different flavors and materials."

"Oh, you can also make many different flavors? Then if you need dad's help, just let me know."

"Well, yes, Dad."

Fang Shi listened to the conversation between Yan Yue and his daughter, shook her head helplessly, and then said to her husband, "Eat first, we'll talk about the rest later."

"okay."

Afterwards, Ouyang Chun sat on a chair, took the mooncakes and ate them silently. Fang looked at her husband who was not talking, and chatted with the two daughters.

After Ouyang Chun ate two mooncakes, he quickly put the plate on the dining table, then poured a cup of tea, and drank it upside down in one gulp.

Seeing her husband's appearance, Fang asked amusedly, "What's the matter? You're in a hurry."

"It's nothing, it's just that the duck egg yolk feels like I'm choking on it."

Upon hearing this, Fang smiled and said, "Oh, then eat slowly."

"Don't, don't, I don't want to eat, I've eaten two whole, I'm full."

Fang was about to say more, but Yan Yue hurriedly interrupted: "Mother, you can't eat too much of that mooncake, the duck egg yolk is a bit greasy, it's better to eat less at night."

"Oh, so that's the case, no wonder you said in the kitchen, let's eat less."

"Well, the mooncakes are baked. The duck egg yolk is very greasy. If you eat too much, your stomach will not be able to bear it."

"Oh, yes, mother understands."

Seeing that her mother knew about it, Yue Yue didn't say anything more, but wrapped the remaining three-month cakes on the plate with oiled paper, and then put them in the kitchen cabinet.

Not long after she returned to the main room to sit again, she called her eldest sister to go to the kitchen with her, washed out the iron pan for baking mooncakes, and then boiled a large pot of hot water.

After the hot water was boiled, she and her eldest sister washed up first. When the two sisters returned to the main room with their wet hair covered, Mrs. Fang hurried to the back room to find two clean cotton cloths for the two sisters to wipe. Wet hair.

After the sisters wiped the wet hair almost dry, Fang went to the kitchen with her husband in peace.

By the time the couple packed up and returned to the main room, the sisters' hair had already been completely dried.

Seeing this, Fang said, "Since your hair is dry, let's go to bed early, we have to get up early tomorrow."

"Well, okay, mother, then you and dad should go to bed early, and my eldest sister and I will go to bed first."

"Well, go and rest."

Fang and her husband looked at the two daughters who were resting in the inner room, exchanged glances, and closed the main room door together.

Besides, after the two sisters returned to the back room, they didn't immediately go to bed and rest, but sat on the edge of the bed and whispered.

Just because Yanyue wanted to know about the situation of her maternal grandfather's family at this time, but she was too embarrassed to ask her mother-in-law, so she had to pull her elder sister to whisper in a low voice.

Yingyu listened to her younger sister's inquiry, and she knew everything she wanted to say, and told all the things she knew.

After listening to her elder sister's story, Yan Yue wiped away the sweat that didn't exist on her forehead with some shame.

Then I thought about it in my heart, thinking that when I woke up in the morning, I had to say hello to her mother and ask her mother to bring some money to her grandparents.

She didn't expect that, according to her elder sister's story, her maternal grandfather's family would be poorer than theirs, and the population was twice as large as theirs.

Yue Yue feels guilty when she thinks about it, she has been in this world for a few months, and she only knows to do her own thing all day long, and doesn't take time to visit relatives in her grandfather's house.

Thinking like this, Yan Yue lost the mood to continue whispering, but quickly took off her clothes, climbed onto the bed, pulled the quilt aside and lay down.

Seeing that she was so fast, her eldest sister was still a little confused, but seeing that she closed her eyes and refused to speak, she didn't ask any more questions, but quickly climbed onto the bed and fell asleep on the other side.

In autumn, although the days are short and the nights are long, time passes quickly once you fall asleep at night. No, when the sisters Yue and Yue were still asleep, the sunlight outside the window had penetrated through the window and entered the inner room.

As for Ouyang Chun and his wife, who had already woken up, they were busy packing up the presents they were going to bring later.

Especially the moon cakes made by Yue Yue, Fang's treasures, for fear that her husband will accidentally break them.

Seeing his wife Fang's protective appearance, Ouyang Chun shook his head helplessly, and then carefully carried other gifts into the ox cart.

After the couple had packed everything up, the sisters and sisters finally got up and came out. At this time, only the youngest Ouyang Mu was still in the family.

Fang saw that the two daughters who liked to stay in bed had already woken up, so she hurried back to their room and woke up the youngest son who was still sleeping.

The moment Ouyang Mu was shaken awake by his mother, he was still a little confused. Seeing the appearance of his youngest son, Fang stretched out his fingers and nodded Ouyang Mu's forehead with a smile.

Then he said: "Mu'er, get up quickly, your sister and the others are already up, get up quickly."

After Fang finished speaking, she looked at her youngest son who hadn't reacted yet, so she said again: "We'll go to grandma's house in a while, I'm sorry, I'll leave you at home alone in a while."

When Ouyang Mu heard that he was left alone at home, he panicked, so he quickly got up, and then hurriedly took the clothes and pants from the bedside cabinet and put them on quickly.

Fang looked at the impatient young son, a smile flashed in his eyes, and then he stopped teasing him.

Then she said to her eager little son in a gentle tone: "Mu'er, mother is just teasing you, don't worry, we will wait for you to go to grandma's house together, don't worry, just wear it slowly."

As soon as Ouyang Mu heard his mother say this, he put on his clothes a lot slower, and he could only see black lines all over her mother's head.

Xin said, this is really what Yan Yue said, sometimes you can't tell the truth, so as not to do things in a muddy way.

Finally, under Fang's ventriloquist in a daze, Ouyang Mu also put on his clothes, shoes and socks, and then stood beside his mother, not understanding why his mother was so dazed.

Ouyang Mu looked up at his mother for a while, then couldn't help but hugged his mother's legs and shook her. Fang was sobered up by her youngest son.

When she saw that her youngest son was fully dressed, holding her legs and looking up at her, she asked curiously, "Mu'er, what's the matter? Why are you looking at mother like this?"

"Mother, why are you in a daze, I called you and you ignored me."

"Hehe, is that right? Mother is not in a daze, you read it wrong."

Fang didn't wait for her youngest son to refute, and urged her: "Hurry up, go out and wash your face, we have to go to grandma's house quickly, or it will be too late."

Sure enough, as soon as Fang interrupted, Ouyang Mu forgot to refute, and then replied: "Oh, yes, mother, I'll go right away."

Fang looked at her youngest son walking towards the main room, and followed her out of the back room in a funny way, and then the mother and son went to the kitchen one after the other, fetched water, and washed their faces.

When Fang's mother and son came out of the kitchen, Yun Yue and her elder sister were already waiting in the yard, while Yun Yue's father was also quietly waiting beside the ox cart holding a whip.

Seeing this, Mrs. Fang quickly locked the kitchen door with the lock, and then took her youngest son who was standing beside her to the door of the main room. After she locked the door, she turned back and went to the courtyard with her youngest son. Walk in the middle.

As soon as Fang and her youngest son approached the ox cart, Yan Yue quietly approached her mother and pulled her sleeve. Fang saw that Yan Yue was pulling her sleeve, and asked curiously: "Yu Yue, What's the matter, is this?"

"Mother, I just want to ask, do you have any money with you?"

"Well, mother brought some, why, do you want to use it?"

"Mother, it's not that I want to use it. I haven't been to my grandma's house for a long time. I think the family is not short of money now, so I'm going to ask my mother to bring some money to honor grandpa and grandma."

When Fang heard what Yanyue said, a warm current flowed through her heart, and then she smiled and said to Yanyue: "Don't worry, your father reminded me this morning, I have some."

After Fang finished speaking, she raised her hand and touched the top of Yunyue's head. Seeing this, Yunyue didn't say anything more, but called her mother and younger brother to get on the ox cart quickly, saying that she couldn't wait to go to grandma's house up.

When Fang heard this, she exchanged a glance with her husband who was looking at her, then smiled at each other, and tacitly greeted her children to get on the ox cart.

After the three children got into the ox cart and sat down, the couple followed into the ox cart without haste. Ouyang Chun waited for his wife, Fang Shi, to sit firmly, then took the rein in one hand and the whip in the other, and drove slowly. Take the bullock cart and go to the entrance of the village.

After the family drove the ox cart for about an hour, they arrived at the village "Jiumen Village" where her grandfather and the others lived.

It is said that when Yanyue first learned that the village where her grandfather and the others lived was called Jiumen Village, she laughed unkindly.

At that time, her elder sister looked at her and laughed out loud, quite inexplicable, she really couldn't figure out that it was just a village name, was it worth her younger sister laughing so stupidly?
Although Yingyu was curious at the time, she didn't ask Lu Yue, just thinking that she was a little silly at that moment.

It is said that if Yun Yue knew at that time that her elder sister would miss her so much, then she would definitely go berserk, but fortunately she didn't know, so there was no scene of her going berserk.

It is said that because Yue Yue was sitting in the innermost part of the bullock cart this time, she didn't know what the outside of Jiumen Village looked like.

Therefore, when she heard her father say that she had arrived at the entrance of Jiumen Village, she couldn't bear the curiosity, and hurriedly called her mother, and changed places with her.

After the mother and daughter changed positions and sat down, Yan Yue couldn't wait to reach out to pick up the curtain, and then looked up curiously, looking at everything at the entrance of Jiumen Village.

When she saw the desolation in front of her eyes, she felt cold in her heart. She really didn't expect the village where her grandparents lived to be so desolate.

I saw that in the fields that could be seen from the entrance of Jiumen Village, there was no edible food growing, only a few vegetables were planted in some fields, while the other fields were all abandoned.

Yan Yue looked at the scene in front of her in a daze, feeling a little sad in her heart, but she managed her emotions well and didn't let her family members notice.

So when she asked her parents about the cause, her parents told her the cause of the drought just as she was curious and didn't think deeply about it.

When Yue Yue heard from her parents that it was caused by the drought again, she felt a little pain in her heart like a knife.

Before she could calm down, her mother was hit by another thunderbolt, and she heard her mother say: "Yue, your grandmother's village is not like our Longyuan Village. There is a big river near the entrance of the village. .”

After Fang finished speaking, she paused for a while, looked at Yan Yue who was frowning tightly, and then continued to speak: "Yu Yue, in fact, the previous Jiumen Village was not like this, the reason why Jiumen Village this year is Looking at the desolation is because the whole village has only a few small wells and no other rivers. Therefore, even if there is a field, when there is a drought, the villagers can only watch and cannot grow food. "

After Fang's finished speaking, she wanted to cry. She thought of her parents and brothers and sisters living in such a village, and felt powerless for a while, but she couldn't change this situation.

After listening to her mother's words, Luyue nodded silently, the smile on her face had disappeared. Fang looked at the sad and silent Luyue, and didn't say anything more.

Instead, he sat quietly on the sidelines, looking at the desolate fields in the village, and gradually felt a sense of melancholy in his heart.

In fact, the reason why Yue Yue feels uncomfortable is because she has never seen such a desolate scene in the modern countryside. Even if she has, she has only seen reports in history books and on TV.

So for a while, she just couldn't accept it, but no matter what, she could only restrain the melancholy in her heart at this time, so as not to affect the good mood of the family by her.
