Chapter 7 Cooking
"I, Xiao Geng, swear to God that if you are driven away from Xiao's house in the past two months, you will be punished by heaven and be struck down by five thunders." After making the oath, Xiao Geng said impatiently, "Are you satisfied now?"

Satisfied, of course satisfied.

Xie Linger nodded, she knew that the ancients attached great importance to poisonous oaths, once made, they must be obeyed.

"Quickly write the prescription." Xiao Geng spoke again.

"Do you have pen and ink?" Xie Linger asked.

Xiao Geng walked into the room, took out a piece of yellowed and old paper, took out a piece of charcoal from the bottom of the pot, and handed it to Xie Linger.

Xie Linger took the charcoal, frowned, and wrote the prescription on the paper.

As soon as the prescription was written, Xiao Geng took it.

"Mother, you go to the house to lie down for a while, I'll go grab the medicine now." After finishing speaking, Xiao Geng walked out, but after only a few steps, something seemed to come to his mind, and his steps stopped immediately.

He turned to Xie Ling'er and said, "Although I'll keep you, you have to do some work. I'll leave lunch to you. Don't let my mother go hungry."

"No problem." Xie Linger readily agreed, and made an OK gesture by the way.

Xiao Geng looked at her gesture, and the light in his eyes suddenly deepened a little.

After Xiao Geng left, Wang asked Xie Linger why she wanted to live in her house.

Xie Ling'er told Wang about her throwing herself into the river to rest her husband, and Wang was both angry and shocked.

She is an outsider, so she seldom goes out, and she doesn't know anything about what happened in the village in the morning.

As for Xie Linger's throwing into the river, she had heard from Xiao Geng, but she didn't know the specifics.

She didn't expect Xie Linger to have such a miserable life in Gu's house, and her heart softened immediately. She grabbed Xie Linger's hand and comforted her: "Since this is the case, you...cough cough...don't be too sad , you are still young, ahem...there is still a long way to go."

"Auntie, don't worry, I'm fine." Xie Ling'er smiled, put the package in her hand on the stone pier, rolled up her sleeves, and prepared to cook, "Auntie, what are you having for lunch?"

When Wang saw the scar on Xie Linger's arm, she sighed in her heart, hey!The life of this child is really miserable.

"Eating gnocchi for lunch, I'll just...cough cough...do it." Mrs. Wang doesn't want Xie Linger to do it. Anyway, this is her first time to eat at her house, and she's just a guest, isn't it? There is a reason to let guests cook.

Seeing this, Xie Ling'er hurriedly stopped Wang, "Auntie, go into the house quickly, I have promised brother Xiao just now that I will cook this meal, your illness is not easy to blow out, otherwise it will be more serious, no matter how much you eat The medicine is gone."

What she said was a bit exaggerated, but she knew that if she didn't say that, Mrs. Wang probably wouldn't let her cook.

Mrs. Wang was stunned, and nodded, "Okay, the flour is in the jar, you just need to dig a scoop."

"En." Xie Ling'er squatted down, washed the vegetables that Mrs. Wang hadn't washed just now, and then went to cook in the wooden shed.

Wang looked at it, a smile overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and turned to go into the house.

Xie Ling'er put the vegetables on the stove and looked at the pot. The pot was very clean and didn't need to be cleaned. She poured two and a half scoops of water into the pot, and then lit the firewood at the bottom of the stove.

Fortunately, it was not Huo Shizi who ignited the fire, but Huo Zhezi, otherwise she would be dumbfounded.

She dug a scoop of rough noodles from the tank and poured it into the wooden basin, then kneaded it while adding water.

In her previous life, her only hobby was cooking and studying various delicacies, so it was not difficult for her to face her.

After the water boiled, she picked up the chopsticks and picked up the rough noodles and put them into the pot. After about half a cup of tea, she turned off the fire at the bottom of the stove, then poured the vegetables into the pot, and finally put some Oil and salt.

There is not much oil in the oil pot of Xiao's family. She knows that every family in the countryside can't afford oil. Even if there is oil at home, she will save it, so she didn't put any oil, so as not to be seen and criticized by Xiao Geng.

When the gnocchi was ready, she put it in two wooden bowls, leaving some in the pot for Xiao Geng to eat.

She came to Wang's room with a bowl, "Auntie, eat quickly."

Mrs. Wang was picking up the soles of her shoes, when she saw Xie Ling'er walking in, she hurriedly got up to take the bowl.

"This child, just call me when it's ready, why did you bring it in by yourself." Mrs. Wang didn't blow the wind, her cough got better, she didn't speak, and she didn't cough.

Xie Linger smiled, "Auntie, eat quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold, so I'll eat it too."

After speaking, he paced out.
