Chapter 153 Eating Zongzi
Early the next morning, Su Wangqin went to Liu's house to get up.
There were still sweet potatoes in the stove, and the residual heat in the stove still didn't cool down. Gu Chunzhu ate a sweet potato by himself. Seeing the sun was out outside, she hung up the waxed fish, which was already a little dry. The elasticity is not as strong as it was when it was fresh, and the flesh of the fish is very firm.
The two little guys also ate sweet potatoes obediently after they got up. Gu Chunzhu didn't tell them to go out to fly kites, and the two chickens were also released and tied. After An An was woken up by the rooster in the morning, she was no longer afraid of it.
She squeezed a large handful of chaff and threw it in front of the big cock, "Eat quickly, and wake An An up when you're full!"
"You guys are playing here." Gu Chunzhu pinched An'an's little face and went to work on his own affairs. After noon, he had to go to the town to see how Liu Xiniang was using that menstrual towel.
Before I knew it, the whole morning was over, Gu Chunzhu went to Chrysanthemum Lady's to buy some broad beans and brought them to Mrs. Fu's house to eat for the two children.
When I got there, I saw that there were zongzi sold in the small shop of Chrysanthemum Mother. Compared with the zongzi before and after the Dragon Boat Festival, the leaves of this zongzi were yellow. It was the scallop leaves that were picked before, dried and stored. When making zongzi, it was soaked in water and it was almost the same as before, but the color was not as good as before.
Gu Chunzhu just bought two zongzi for the two little guys to eat for lunch, just in time to prepare something delicious for them. These zongzi are not cheap, each cost three cents.
"Mother, what's this?" When she got home, An An saw Gu Chunzhu holding an oiled paper bag under her arm, and her eyes like two big grapes were glued together, "An An wants to eat it!"
This child is becoming more and more coquettish with himself, Gu Chunzhu handed the oiled paper bag to Xiao Cheng who was carefully flipping through the book, "There are broad beans in it, and I will go to Da Zhuang's mother's house to eat in the afternoon, remember to share it with Da Zhuang. Let's share together."
"Got it!" Xiaocheng deliberately waved the oil paper bag in front of the greedy little girl, with a smirk in the slender phoenix eyes, and then stuffed the oil paper bag in his arms.
An An pouted and pulled Xiao Cheng's sleeve with one hand and Gu Chunzhu's sleeve with the other, "An An will eat a little bit, let's eat a little bit first!"
"Do you still want to eat the zongzi!" Gu Chunzhu took out the other hand behind his back, and the tightly bundled zongzi was raised in front of An An.
An An took a dumpling from Gu Chunzhu's hand. The dumpling was not small. An An was holding it with both hands, and her small eyes were shining.
Gu Chunzhu took the two children and went to the kitchen to peel the zongzi for them to eat. The two zongzi were still hot, so Gu Chunzhu saved the time to cook the zongzi.
One is sweet zongzi and the other is salty, both are three cents.
Gu Chunzhu was stuffed by the two children and fed two mouthfuls. After that, she resolutely refused to eat the sweet potatoes that she resigned to her fate. The two children also exchanged food. The salty zongzi had a small piece of meat in it, and the sweet zongzi was packed with candied dates.
After lunch, Gu Chunzhu put the waxed fish back in the kitchen and hung it up so that the wild cat would not come and take it away, so the two children were sent to Mrs. Fu's house before they went to town.
When I arrived at Uncle Zheng's house, Uncle Zheng was knocking on a cigarette pole in the yard.
"Uncle, why didn't you go out and set up a stall at home today!" Gu Chunzhu greeted, and Uncle Zheng smiled when he saw her, with a few wrinkles in the corners of his eyes.
"Yesterday, I met a big customer who rounded up all the Chinese cabbage on my stall. Do you remember that it will be New Year's Eve in five days. Come and see Xiao Luo." Uncle Zheng put on an appearance of waiting for the Chinese New Year. There was a happy look on his face.
"Hey, I'm looking for Xinlan to sell purses later, so I won't stay any longer." Gu Chunzhu said a few words to Uncle Zheng and went to Luo Xinlan.
She didn't stay in Luo Xinlan's house too much. She took the newly made disposable menstrual towels and the long-term menstrual towels, packed them in the back basket, and went to Baoxianglou.
Outside the Baoxiang Building, there were already bustling stalls. Gu Chunzhu put out the braces and hung up the cloth purses made by Luo Xinlan's mother and daughter, as well as the purses that were left over every year.
There are many girls who come to join in the fun, but the price has dropped again and again, the purses that are left over every year have been rotten on the street, and only a few of the cloth purses have been sold.
Gu Chunzhu thought about telling Luo Xinlan's mother and daughter to stop at that time, just to see if the menstrual towel could be sold.
She was looking forward to it at the door of Baoxianglou, but she didn't see Liu Xiniang come out, and several of the girls who bought things returned to Baoxianglou.
At this time, an acquaintance came out of Baoxianglou.
Gu Chunzhu's apricot eyes almost popped out. She blocked the shelf where the purse was placed in front of her face, and Xu Wenjun walked over to her. She also saw a men's purse hanging around his waist.
"My God!" Gu Chunzhu's lips were slightly open, and at this moment, he happened to see Liu Xiniang standing at the door of Baoxiang Building, and weak Liu Fufeng's waist was looking forward to it.
When her eyes met Gu Chunzhu, she walked over with joy in her eyes, "Chunzhu, you're here."
"Xiaoxi, shall we go to the teahouse to chat?" Gu Chunzhu couldn't wait to ask how the menstrual towels were being sold in Baoxianglou, her eyelashes trembled, indicating that she was nervous.
I saw Liu Xiniang gently shaking her head, her red lips looked at Gu Chunzhu's disappointment and suddenly pursed her lips and smiled. She took Gu Chunzhu's hand and walked towards the teahouse, "This time I will invite you to drink tea."
"How embarrassing is this, I asked you to sell menstrual towels, so I should invite you to drink tea." Gu Chunzhu's footsteps were slow.
Come down, with a little stubbornness.
Liu Xiniang smiled lightly, "Okay, let's drink that tea."
I saw that she pointed to a roadside tea stall. There are very few people drinking tea in this winter. Liu Xiniang sat on the roadside stall without disdain, but people passing by would frequently turn their heads to look at her. .
Such a beautiful woman is rare, and in this winter, she is wearing gauze and showing most of her lotus arms. At first glance, she is not a good family.
The passers-by looked at first with amazement and then with contempt, which made Gu Chunzhu unhappy, and couldn't quarrel with them. She took Liu Xiniang's hand and stood up, "Let's not be here."
"Chunzhu, are you afraid that others will smear your reputation by seeing you with me?" Liu Xiniang lowered her eyes slightly, her whole person revealed sadness, as if she was as fragile as a porcelain doll.
"Am I that kind of person?" Gu Chunzhu hurriedly explained when she saw that she was thinking, "This shed can't be sheltered from the wind in this winter, and you are wearing thin clothes. Let's find a shop, it's not bad. Some money. I know that there is a good mutton soup, and I will take you to drink to warm your stomach. "
When Liu Xiniang heard it, she suddenly smiled, and her whole body was filled with freshness and beauty, making her a little more agile.
