Farmer Girl Becomes a Pheonix - Chapter 682

When Xia Xiaochan sat in the ox cart, she thought and asked her cousin Jiang Yue, “cousin, what Dynasty is it now?”

Jiang Yue looked at her in surprise, “cousin, don’t you remember?”

Xia Xiaochan nodded and said, “I had a fever a few days ago. My brain was so dizzy that I forgot for a moment.”

After hearing this, Jiang Yue couldn’t help looking at her skinny face and said, “it’s five years since the new dynasty.”

“What new dynasty? What was the emperor’s last name?”

After hearing this, Jiang Yue couldn’t help feeling that Xia Xiaochan had burned her brain.

“The emperor’s surname is Tang!”

“Tang? Shouldn’t the emperor be surnamed Ao?”

Xia Xiaochan almost blurted out.

Jiang Yue was shocked and looked around. There was no one around. She was relieved.

“Cousin, don’t talk about the previous dynasty in the future. Otherwise, if there’s really something wonderful, you’ll kill your head.”

“It’s the new dynasty. The new dynasty forbids talking about the previous dynasty. If you talk about the previous dynasty, you will be punished as an anti thief.”

Xia Xiaochan was startled and shivered.

However, in her heart, she wanted to know the news of the previous dynasty more and more, as if she would regret and be restless if she didn’t check the news of the previous dynasty.

However, Jiang Yue was afraid of causing trouble to her family, but she refused to talk about the previous dynasty. She only talked about the third master Jiang catching fish.

Xia Xiaochan listens to the news of fish and shrimp in the ditch. She has a very good taste. She has a familiar feeling about such a life and always feels that she yearns for such a life.

“Can I catch fish with my third uncle?”

Aside, Jiang Yue said with a smile, “of course you can.” he paused and said with a smile, “cousin cicada, when you arrive at my house, we will catch fish every day. When the fish comes back, ask my mother to fry fish for us. What do you think?”

Xia Xiaochan blinked, “OK.”

At the thought of the taste of small yellow croaker, her mouth watered. She wanted to eat a few pieces of fried small yellow croaker immediately.

The body should have been oily for a long time. At the mention of small yellow croaker, Xia Xiaochan felt more and more hungry.

Xia Xiaochan’s third uncle is in another nearby village. In addition to her grandparents, her eldest uncle and second uncle have a family.

The three uncles had separated and lived separately. Therefore, Xia Xiaochan was directly led to the third uncle’s house.

When Xia Xiaochan came into the house, her third aunt was frying small yellow croaker. The flour was mixed with eggs and wrapped together. Xia Xiaochan couldn’t stand the smell from a distance.

The third aunt had a son and a daughter. Jiang Bo, the eldest son of her aunt’s family, went to the town to study. There was only a girl named cousin Jiang Yue at home.

Seeing Xia Xiaochan coming, my aunt hurriedly said, “here comes the little cicada? Jiang Yue, take your sister to wash her hands, and the two sisters will eat the little yellow croaker together.”

“I see, mother.”

Jiang Yue took Xia Xiaochan’s hand and walked towards the water tank. When they scooped up the water, the sisters washed their hands and sat down together to eat small yellow croaker.

That little fish is really delicious. Xia Xiaochan eats this little yellow croaker and thinks she can’t forget the taste all her life.

When my uncle came back in the evening, he carried a large bucket of small fish in the bucket, and the harvest was very rich. After seeing Xia Xiaochan, he smiled and said in a kind and caring tone, “is the little cicada coming? Now that he has come, he will stay at my third uncle’s house for more days and raise his bones.”

The third aunt said, “yes, yes, raise more. You look like a monkey! You must be full every day at home?”

The third uncle gave the third aunt a white look and said, “little cicada, your eldest brother recently brought back two pieces of cloth. Later, your aunt will measure your height. You and your cousin will make a new dress.”

After hearing this, Xia Xiaochan shook her head, “Uncle three, I don’t need it. I have clothes to wear. Keep your cloth for my cousin and my aunt.”

The third uncle hurriedly said, “how can that be?”

The third aunt also said, “yes, yes, your young girls wear fresh clothes. That color is suitable for little girls like you.”

Speaking, regardless of Xia Xiaochan’s refusal, he took a ruler to draw on her and went down.

On the other side, Jiang Yue said with a smile, “cousin cicada, my parents are very kind to you. I’m almost jealous.”

After listening to this, Xia Xiaochan felt more and more uneasy. After all, there is no unprovoked love in the world. If others treat you well, who knows if they are greedy for anything?

Xia Xiaochan is a sensitive person by nature. Somehow, she always feels that the three uncles and aunts seem to be a little artificial and untrue.

When Xia Xiaochan was in a daze, Jiang Yue on one side took her to continue eating small yellow croaker. This small fish is too tempting. White flour and eggs are rare good things, not to mention the big pot of oil fried fish, which is a test of people’s willpower for a person who has not been oily for a long time.

Xia Xiaochan wanted to be a full ghost when she was single. Immediately, she opened her stomach and ate.

When she was full, Xia Xiaochan wanted to do housework. Her aunt stopped her and let the two children play by themselves.

Jiang Yue took Xia Xiaochan to dig wild vegetables and mushrooms nearby.

Xia Xiaochan also likes to do this job. He and Jiang Yue look for the traces of clumps of wild vegetables in the slightly humid air. When it gets dark, they collect a basket of sheep head mushrooms, a handful of wild onions, a lot of Houttuynia cordata, dandelion and so on.

Xia Xiaochan’s mind almost immediately emerged the practice of these foods!

Sheep head mushroom is a rare delicacy whether it is fried with pickled pepper or made into soup. Houttuynia cordata is cold mixed or fried meat. Tut Tut, the taste is particularly good. As for wild vegetables such as dandelion, it floats after water. If you mix it with chili oil, tut Tut, the taste is unspeakable.

Unfortunately, no matter what dishes you cook, you need a lot of oil. I don’t know if your third aunt is willing to do it?

Thinking of this, Xia Xiaochan asked Jiang Yue, “how do these wild vegetables go home?”

“Boiled, of course.”

Xia Xiaochan was disappointed when she heard this, but at least she was in someone else’s house. She was just a guest, so she didn’t say much, but silently followed Jiang Yue home.

Seeing the wild vegetables brought back by the two sisters, the third aunt paused and said with a smile, “today’s harvest is good. You two sisters go upstairs to do sewing and play. Let me prepare the meal.”

“Third aunt, I’ll help you with your work?”

“Ah? No, no, go and have a rest. Don’t make trouble for me, you children.”

With that, the third aunt went down with the basket.

Jiang Yue was very happy to be lazy, so she took Xia Xiaochan to her room. The two sisters played with a pile of rags.

“Although these cloth heads are leftover materials, many of them are leftover materials on silk and satin. Where did they come from?”

Jiang Yue shook her head. “My mother said she went to sell things in the town. Because she gave others some rural specialties, they gave her.”

After hearing this, Xia Xiaochan didn’t ask much. She just took a piece of floral cloth and rolled it. Soon, a lifelike silk flower took shape. She picked up the stitches and sewed it. However, for a moment, she made a very beautiful silk flower.

Jiang Yue opened her eyes. “Sister cicada, you are so powerful. This silk flower is really beautiful.”

Xia Xiaochan smiled and then made several different silk flowers in succession.

Thinking that she had received the favor of her third uncle’s family, she moved in her heart and said, “cousin Jiang Yue, if we sell such silk flowers, can we sell them for some money?”

Jiang Yue stared for a moment and said, “yes, yes, of course. Oh, little cicada sister, why didn’t I think of this method? Such silk flowers don’t exist in the town at all. I like them as soon as I see them. I’m sure they can sell at a good price.”

After hearing this, Xia Xiaochan breathed a sigh of relief and said, “sister Jiang Yue, I’ll finish all these silk flowers for you. You and your third aunt will go to the town to sell them at that time. Maybe you can change some money.”

“Good.”

The sisters were busy in the room. Outside, the voice of the third aunt came, “little cicada, come, come, come to dinner.”

Xia Xiaochan put down her needle and thread and Jiang Yue and went out. When she came to the table, Xia Xiaochan immediately widened her eyes.

Everything as like as two peas and a table of dishes, each of which is all the same, and all the dishes are exactly the same as the dishes that Xia Xiaochan has seen in his mind.

In fact, cooking is delicious. The most important thing is that she is willing to give up oil, willing to work hard and don’t dislike trouble. The dishes on the third aunt’s table, whether fried sheep’s head mushroom with pickled pepper or cold wild vegetables with chili oil, are quite delicious.

Jiang Yue picked up her chopsticks and took a few mouthfuls of food. She said vaguely, “Mom, mom, why didn’t you cook like this before?”

“Isn’t this delicious?”

“Mom, such dishes are delicious. They are so delicious.”
