Shen Baiqiu is nine years old and is only about 1.2 meters tall.
Because he has been working for a long time, for such a young child, he still has muscles in his arms.
Ignoring his tanned skin and thin face, he is still a good-looking young man.
"Brother, my sister and I went to the mountains today to dig up a lot of wild vegetables and fungi. There is one called gallinobacteria. My sister said it is more delicious than chicken. My sister also combed my hair and washed my hair. My sister can alright……"
After Shen Yueya also called Old Man Shen and Shen Yuanyuan, she chattered with Shen Baiqiu to share what she had done today.
Of course, the little girl consciously didn't mention some things that couldn't be said in front of everyone, such as the fact that they hid a lot of mushrooms.
Seeing Shen Yueya so happy, Shen Baiqiu stared at Shen Zhiyao but said nothing.
Is she our biological sister?
When Shen Mingxue was picked up, he overheard those who came to pick up Shen Mingxue saying that their sister was unwilling to come back.
If you don't want to, why come back now? And it only took one day for Yue Ya to become so close to her.
"Grandpa, second uncle, I am Shen Zhiyao."
Shen Zhiyao introduced herself generously.
Old Man Shen was only over fifty years old, and he was already a grandfather in these ancient times. He said, "It'll be nice to come back," then he stopped talking and walked into the house.
Shen Yuanyuan also nodded honestly and dullly, and went to place the farm tools with his two sons.
Only Shen Baiqiu stood there.
"You must be Bai Qiu, I am your sister, go wash your hands quickly, we will have dinner later."
Shen Zhiyao didn't notice his silent expression, so she picked up the prepared chicken fungi and walked into the kitchen.
Mrs. Liu cooked the porridge with pickles tonight. The porridge was still simmering. Shen Zhiyao took a look and saw that the porridge was so thin that a human figure could be clearly seen.
In addition to these two things, Mrs. Liu also cut some vegetables and mixed them with black flour. It seemed that she was going to fry vegetable pancakes.
Shen Zhiyao looked on and felt that Liu's knife skills were pretty good.
In the main room, a family of more than a dozen people were waiting for dinner.
Mu Shi arranged two tables, each with seven people.
Old Han Er Shen, Old Mrs. Yang, and Shen Yuan sat at the same table with Shen Jin and Shen Yin from the second room, and Shen Fu and Shen Gui from the fourth room.
The three sisters Liu, Xiao Yang, Shen Qizhu and Shen Zhiyao sat at the same table as Shen Xiaocao from the second room.
When Ms. Liu brought the porridge, Shen Yuan helped her get pickles and some fried vegetable cakes.
Immediately, it was time for Mrs. Yang to share the meal.
"Zhi, where are Zhiyao and Yueya?" Old Man Shen didn't quite remember Shen Zhiyao's name, and he didn't see the two sisters in the main room, so he asked.
"Dad, she is making mushrooms in the kitchen." Mrs. Liu replied to Old Man Shen.
Shen Qizhu couldn't help but said: "Dad, you don't know that Shen Zhiyao came back from picking a lot of mushrooms, and she actually said that the mushrooms picked from the mountains are edible."
"It smells so good!" Shen Fu sniffed his nose and smelled a scent coming from the kitchen, and immediately pulled his brother Shen Gui's sleeve.
As soon as he finished speaking, the fragrance became even stronger, making people drool.
Shen Fu couldn't help it anymore and climbed down from the stool to go to the kitchen.
Old Mrs. Yang stopped him: "My dear grandson, that is poisonous. No matter how fragrant it is, you can't eat it."
"Mom, let me go see what she is doing." Shen Qizhu volunteered and ran to the kitchen.
After Mrs. Yang pushed Shen Fu back to the bench, she continued to share the food.
When they were assigned to Shen Baiqiu's table, Shen Baiqiu saw that Mrs. Yang had scooped porridge into the bowls of Liu, Xiao Yang, Shen Qizhu, and Shen Xiaocao, and divided them into small pieces of vegetable cakes, and then gave him a bowl. After Li also scooped up the porridge, he took the porridge basin away.
Stop her immediately:
"Milk, where are my sister and...and hers?"
Shen Baiqiu couldn't say the word "sister" yet.
"It's enough for them to just eat fungi, what else do they need to eat!" Old Mrs. Yang used this as an excuse and didn't want to give Shen Zhiyao and Shen Yueya a share.
"No." Shen Baiqiu took her arm and said stubbornly: "Give them a share."
Shen Baiqiu was also worried that the fungi collected by the man were poisonous, but Yue Ya quietly told him that the man had eaten such fungi.
She also talked about how that person defended her today and insisted that no matter what, she would eat those fungi.
Shen Baiqiu had no choice but to watch Yue Ya go to the kitchen, thinking that after Mrs. Yang divided the rice, she would carry Yue Ya and the man's food to the kitchen. When the mushrooms were ready, he would eat the mushrooms first. If it is poisonous, let him die first.
And he predicted well that if Yue Ya and the others were not at the dinner table, grandma would not want to share the food with them.
"There isn't enough food at home, you..."
"Give them points." Shen Baiqiu still said the same thing, and his eyes turned to Old Shen.
Old Man Shen said: "Let's divide it."
Old Mrs. Yang reluctantly went to scoop the porridge.
"Dad, Mom, Shen Zhiyao used a lot of oil!"
Shen Qizhu came back from the kitchen. She just saw Shen Zhiyao using a large basin of oil to fry mushrooms in the kitchen, and she quickly came to complain.
"What!" Mrs. Yang felt distressed just listening to Shen Qizhu's words. She put down the porridge basin and strode to the kitchen.
Shen Baiqiu quickly scooped porridge into Shen Zhiyao and Shen Yueya's bowls, and then went to the kitchen with three bowls of porridge steadily.
When he arrived, Mrs. Yang was scolding Shen Zhiyao.
"You're a man who gets a thousand cuts. You fry your toadstools in so many ways. How can your house stand up to what you do?"
"You can keep the oil after frying the chicken fir fungus and use it again." Shen Zhiyao was not afraid of Mrs. Yang at all and continued to fry with her hands.
"Who wants to use something poisonous like yours!"
"Then there's nothing we can do. Oh, by the way, I also used two eggs."
After Shen Zhiyao finished speaking calmly, she caught a glimpse of Shen Baiqiu holding the porridge and shouted smoothly: "Bai Qiu, come here and light the fire instead of Yue Yao."
Shen Baiqiu walked over and put down the porridge first.
"Crescent Moon, brother, come here, you go have some food."
"you you!"
Old Mrs. Yang had no choice but to angrily walk over and take the oil jar away from the stove, put it in the bamboo cabinet in the kitchen and lock it.
I counted the eggs inside again, and sure enough, there were two missing.
She was careless. She should have locked the cabinet after the second daughter-in-law took the ingredients for tonight's cooking.
Mrs. Liu never dared to take more things when she was cooking. Over the years, Mrs. Yang felt very at ease with Mr. Liu and developed the habit of locking the kitchen cabinets after finishing her meal every day.
Who would have thought...
After rubbing her dizzy head, Mrs. Yang left top-heavy.
"Sister, it smells so good~" Shen Yueya looked at the fried chicken fungus and licked her lips.
Shen Zhiyao picked up a piece, blew it and put it to Shen Yueya's mouth: "Try it."
"Well, I, let me taste it first." Shen Baiqiu stood up and held Yue Ya when she opened her mouth.
"Tsk."
Shen Zhiyao saw what he was thinking, turned her chopsticks, and put the fried chicken fungus directly into her mouth.
What she makes is dry-fried, crispy and fragrant, just like the taste in memory.
"Don't worry now."
