Tibetan Sea Pearl

Chapter 5 The Squid Missing

"I've smelled it from afar, and I knew it was you who sent me the charcoal."

With exactly the same tone, the two looked at me and I looked at you, and laughed at the same time.

"My dad just made roasted pork, just finished, my mother knew you like it, asked me to bring you a plate, and people ran away, probably to watch the excitement." Sun Yinglian said.

Su Yue sat down at the round table in the backyard, opened the food box and couldn't help but took a piece of char siew to eat, "It's so delicious, your father makes the best char siew in the whole city."

Sun's pork roast is three-point fat and seven-point lean, fat but not greasy, with a hint of sweetness in the meat, which leaves a lingering fragrance after eating.

"Of course." Sun Yinglian squinted her eyes triumphantly, "Our family has a secret recipe handed down from our ancestors, and other families can't make this taste."

"What recipe?" Su Yue asked intentionally with her mouth full.

"I won't tell you." Sun Yinglian put on a puffed face.

The Sun family opened a roast meat shop opposite the Su family's porcelain shop. Su Yue knew that the Sun family's secret recipe for roasting was handed down from the ancestors and was unique. To tease her on purpose.

Su Yue knows the secret recipe for burning.Other people's charcuterie is made with ordinary firewood, but Sun's homemade charcuterie is made of lychee wood, which is why Sun's charcuterie tastes so good.

Two years later, the day before Sun Yinglian got married, she held Su Yue's hand crying, saying that she didn't know when she would meet again, and maybe she would never have the chance to meet again in this life, so she took the initiative to tell Su Yue the secret recipe of barbecued pork.

Sun Yinglian found a comfortable position and lay down on the rocking chair, "It's still comfortable in your yard, unlike mine, where the whole yard smells like char siew."

The Su family lived in a courtyard with two entrances. There were three main rooms in the front yard, with side rooms on the left and right sides of the main room, and three wing rooms on the east and west each surrounded a courtyard in which two banana trees taller than a person were planted.

There is no patio in the backyard, it is a big yard. One of the east wing rooms is used as a kitchen. Su Yue's room is in the west wing room. The wok'er gable wall near the alley is covered with morning glories. Blossoming little flowers dance with the wind.

After a while, Mrs. Wang came back with a basket on her shoulders, and a big grass carp wrapped in willow branches in her hand.

"Auntie, have you seen the new prefect?" Sun Yinglian asked.

"I see, I see." Wang smiled, "I thought Xinzhifu was a bad old man, but I didn't expect him to be so young, not a few years older than Ah Qing..."

As soon as the new magistrate appeared at the pier, the wives and wives who watched below exclaimed, they were so handsome, and immediately threw the freshly bought flowers, cabbage, and hens in the direction of the magistrate, almost throwing out the eggs in their hands Yes, that scene was too spectacular.

While the wives and wives inquired whether the new magistrate was married, they had their own calculations in their hearts.

Seeing that both Su Yue and Sun Yinglian were looking at her, Mrs. Wang quickly stopped talking and sent them to the wing room to embroider.It's not good to talk so much with the girl who hasn't left the court, but the new magistrate is so handsome, he sighed in his heart, it's a pity, I don't know which girl will be cheaper in the end.

Seeing Sun Yinglian coming, Mrs. Wang made her best steamed grass carp, and left Sun Yinglian to eat at home.

The second day was the Dragon Boat Festival, and Su Yu came back, holding the hand of her daughter, Sister Gui, who was under two years old, followed by Xiao Hei, who carried a burden on her shoulders, and covered the two baskets with leaves. The burden was heavy and bent the pole.

Wang's eyes were sharp, and he saw his daughter and the black-faced son-in-law from a long way from the gate, grinning from ear to ear, and welcomed them into the house, "Come back when you come back, go back to your own house, what are you doing with so many things?" Seeing them sitting on the boat all morning, they hurriedly went to the kitchen to order two bowls of Yangchun noodles.

Su Yu was seasick, her whole body was listless, and she couldn't eat anything. Seeing this, Su Yue helped Su Yu to the wing room, "Go to sleep for a while, we will have the energy to eat after a good sleep. Sister Gui, you don't need to eat." Don't worry, leave it to me, I'll take her to play."

Su Yu nodded feebly and leaned on the big welcoming pillow.

Su Yue knelt down and hugged Sister Gui who was crying beside her, "Come on, my aunt will take you to ride a horse, don't you like horse riding the most...".

Sister Gui was a little suspicious, she lay her head on Su Yue's shoulder, crying and struggling to get down all the way, when Su Yue really found an old wooden horse from the woodshed, Sister Gui's eyes lit up, and the sound of crying small.

Su Yue put Sister Gui on the wooden horse, and gently rocked, rocking, rocking, coaxing her.

Sister Gui giggled, she became more courageous, she simply pushed away Su Yong's hand, and shook the wooden horse by herself, after shaking it twice, the wooden horse flew up, every time the wooden horse flew, she giggled .

Su Qing went out to drink realgar wine and came back, and stayed with Su Yuanshan in the main room, talking with Xiao Hei.

Wang Shi and Hong Jiao were cleaning up the two big baskets of fish picked by Xiao Hei in the backyard. Wang Shi sighed while cleaning up the fish, this is really a sincere son-in-law, the two big baskets of fish add up to almost a hundred catties, it is hard for him pick so far.

One basket is sea fish, and the other basket is squid, each of which is as big as a palm.Mrs. Wang divided the fish into two halves, one half was eaten fresh, and the other half was used to dry the fish, cut open the fish one by one, and dried them on the dustpan. Su Yue likes to eat squid, so she should dry more.

In the evening, when collecting the dried fish, Hongjiao noticed that a squid was missing, and shouted, "Second Miss, come and see, why is there one missing?"

Su Yue looked at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "This squid is drying in the yard, could it be possible to run with long legs?"

"One, two, three..." Hongjiao began to count again, "No, there is still one less than in the morning."

"Did you count wrong?" Su Yue couldn't help laughing seeing Hongjiao's anxious appearance, "It's just that a squid is missing, what's the big deal."

Su Yong didn't care, but Hong Jiao got angry because in the next few days, one squid would be missing every day, and if this continued, the squid in the yard would disappear.Su Yue thought about it seriously, their family didn't have cats or dogs, could it be that the squid really had long legs and ran away?

In Lin Fu's study room, sunlight streamed in through the window sills, and a young man in white was sitting in front of the desk in the study room, reading a book.

"Meow!" A cat jumped in from the open window sill and jumped past.

The boy didn't raise his eyes, he turned a page of the book lightly, and started to read from the beginning.

With a bang, something heavy fell on the floor, breaking the silence.

The boy looked down and saw a palm-sized squid dropped by his feet, and he quickly moved his feet away.

It's that stray cat again, and another squid!

For three consecutive days, this wild cat would pick up a squid and throw it into his study, and he didn't like squid the most, it took a long time to chew until he could chew it.

The teenager put down the book in his hand, looked down at the cat, and the cat looked up at him, their eyes met.

Facing the emerald eyes of Shang Ye Mao, the boy suddenly understood, "Do you want to eat squid?"

"Meow!" A continuous meow answered him.

Holding the squid tail in distaste, the boy called the cook at the house, "Take it to the kitchen and make a stir-fried squid."
