Chapter 299 Noodles
Chapter 299 Noodles
Based on Wu Jie's many years of observation and experience, no matter how a woman was before, after getting married and having children, her focus will be on her husband and children.
That's why I happily went to another house with her this time.
who knew...
She hasn't stopped thinking about those things she shouldn't have.
Wu Jie was extremely disappointed, but he was worried about his wife's pregnancy and could not say harsh words to her, so he could only keep these negative emotions in his heart.
When will she grow up? -
After Wu Jie and Xu Yuanyuan left, Gu Rao touched Bieye with his arm and said with a smile, "You were so inhumane just now."
Bieye looked at her.
"Did it scare you?"
Gu Rao shook his head.
"Not only am I not scared, I also think your inhumane look is very beautiful. Am I sick?"
Bieye's lips curled up.
"No."
Gu Rao didn't want to waste time and energy on irrelevant people, so he did not continue to discuss Xu Yuanyuan's matter and discussed with Bieye, "When you were wrongly imprisoned, my uncle helped a lot. If it hadn't been for him , I still don’t know what will happen, should we bring gifts to celebrate the New Year?”
Bieye said, "It should be."
Gu Rao was a little hesitant.
"Although I haven't met my aunt yet, it can be seen from the letter she wrote last time asking the prefect to leave us alone. She doesn't like to see my niece. If we go to visit New Year rashly like this, she may think that we are deliberately talking to them. Family ties."
In this era, the status of merchants was the lowest among scholars, farmers, and merchants. Although the restaurant was in Gu Rao's name and Biye was still a farmer, others knew that they were doing business and did not have much land under their name, so they were treated as merchants.
Gu Qingcheng is the master of Qiushui Academy and a respected scholar.
Bieye is quite open-minded.
"Since uncle takes the initiative to acknowledge you and goes out of his way to help us, it shows that he cares about you as his niece. We really should go and pay him New Year's greetings and express our gratitude to him."
"You have no other relatives here. It would be good if you have an uncle who loves you. You can walk more with him in the future."
"As for aunt..."
"You don't need to take her attitude too seriously. If she recognizes you as my niece, we will recognize her and treat her with courtesy. If she doesn't recognize you, you can only recognize her as uncle."
Gu Rao suddenly became enlightened.
"You're right, why do I care what she thinks?"
"I'll go get ready."
“What can I give as a gift that won’t look tacky?”
This question stumped Bieye.
"I'm a rough guy and have never dealt with scholars."
Gu Rao held his chin with one hand and thought for a while.
"We don't read much ourselves. The books at home are basically story books. Besides, I don't know what kind of books he likes. He must already have ordinary books. We can't get unique books at all."
"The road to delivering books is basically broken."
When it comes to giving gifts to readers, the first thing that comes to her mind is books.
In the past, because she was worried about leaving the country, she didn't think about food and tea. Gu Qingcheng brought her meals a few times, and occasionally some pastries, which tasted very good. Those meals were better looking than those she made.
After asking, I found out that the cook at Gu Qingcheng's family was found from the capital.
"Not even food."
This issue kept bothering her from day to night. When she was lying in bed, Gu Rao was still tossing and turning, not knowing what to give.
Bieye patted her back and held her in his arms.
"Think about it tomorrow if you have anything to do."
Gu Rao supported his head with one hand and shook his head.
"Not sleepy yet."
There were two charcoal pots placed in the bedroom to keep the whole bedroom warm. She was only wearing single clothes and covered with a thick quilt, and she even felt a little hot at this time.
He kicked the quilt and put his entire thigh outside.
Bieye took her legs back to the bed.
"Don't catch a cold."
Gu Rao asked, "Don't you feel hot?"
Bieye said, "It's okay."
Gu Rao also knew that he was delicate and had a stronger sense of hot and cold than others.
"Ok."
Bieye consoled him, "If I don't get a charcoal basin, you will feel cold again later. Go to sleep. It will be fine as soon as you fall asleep."
Gu Rao said, "Aren't we going to my uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow? We'd better prepare the things we want to send tonight, otherwise what will happen if we are in a hurry tomorrow morning?"
Bieye was silent for a moment.
"Do you want to look at the sky outside?"
Gu Rao, "..."
"It gets dark early in winter, but it's actually just midnight."
Bieye no longer forced her.
"Then just think about it for a while. I'm a little sleepy, so I'll go to sleep first."
The most important thing is that tomorrow we have to chop wood and burn charcoal.
Gu Rao also knew that he had been working all day today, and he wanted to persuade him to wait until the first month of the new year was over before working again, but he was worried that he would think wildly if he had nothing to do.
After Beyeye closed his eyes, his breathing soon became steady.
Gu Rao turned her head and looked at his handsome profile, suddenly curious, did he snore while sleeping?
She seemed to have fallen asleep first before, so she didn't even notice it.
With such curiosity, Gu Rao was thinking about what gifts to prepare for tomorrow while observing Bieye. After about a stick of incense, she finally felt sleepy, but she forced herself not to sleep.
She had to wait a little longer, maybe she would start snoring later!
-
The next day.
After Gu Rao woke up, it was already bright outside. After getting dressed and going out, he realized that it seemed to be snowing harder today.
The snow in the yard was swept away by others, but it accumulated a thick layer, dyeing the ground white.
When you step on it, it makes a crunching sound.
Gu Rao was wearing self-made mille-layer soles, which were very warm. When she stepped on the snow, she looked at the snow that almost covered her shoes and realized that if she walked in the snow for a long time, her shoes would get wet from the snow. .
It's a pity that there are no waterproof shoes in this era.
Beye put the prepared noodles into the pot, cook for a while, and then add the chopped cabbage leaves.
After cooking, put the noodles and cabbage leaves into a bowl with a fried egg respectively.
Finally, pour the prepared minced meat toppings into two noodle bowls, and finally sprinkle chopped green onion and coriander on top.
"dinner time."
Gu Rao followed Bieye and came to the dining table with him to sit down.
“Today’s noodles look so appetizing!”
Bieye smiled and said, "Then eat more."
Gu Rao nodded.
"it is good."
Bieye used chopsticks to help her stir it.
"Eat."
Gu Rao was amazed by the taste of the noodles as soon as he took the first bite. There should be a little scallion oil and vinegar. It has the taste of Sichuan peppercorns, but there is no Sichuan peppercorns. It must be that the Sichuan peppercorns were fished out after being oiled. The noodles are sour and spicy. very delicious!
“Really delicious!”
"It tastes different from the noodles I make!"
Although the noodles she makes are delicious, whether they are boiled noodles or cold noodles, they all have a unique taste, but you will still get tired of them if you eat too much.
It’s not bad to eat noodles made by others once in a while.
Bieye cooked noodles for her according to her usual appetite, but after finishing the bowl of noodles this time, she was still a little greedy.
"Is there any noodles left in the pot?"
