A dreamless night!
Early in the morning, Ling Xue went downstairs yawning and happened to meet Liao Er who was also coming downstairs.
"Good morning, second brother!" Ling Xue greeted Liao Er as soon as she saw him.
"Good morning, Xiaoxue!" Liao Er looked listless. It seemed that he really didn't get enough rest, and he even had dark circles under his eyes.
That’s right, anyone would suffer from insomnia if they encountered what happened yesterday, but Ling Xue, who was well-informed, didn’t take it to heart.
Seeing that Ling Xue was not affected at all, Liao Er suddenly felt uncomfortable. Doesn't he have any dignity?
Liao Er immediately braced himself and was determined not to let Ling Xue see any flaws.
Ling Xue knew what he was thinking, but she didn't guess it, otherwise Liao Er would definitely feel embarrassed.
Ling Xue walked to the vegetable garden in the backyard, picked a few cucumbers and tomatoes, and picked up a handful of green vegetables. They planned to eat these for the morning meal.
Although there are not many types, the quantity is huge!
It’s no wonder that Aunt Liao’s family has a good relationship with Ling Xue. They have the same taste and there is no awkwardness when it comes to eating.
Aunt Liao cooked a big pot of rice porridge and heated up a few steamed buns. By the time Ling Xue came back from the vegetable garden, it was almost ready.
Ling Xue washed the vegetables by the sink in the yard and returned to the kitchen. Aunt Liao smiled when she saw Ling Xue come in: "Xiao Xue, why are you up so early? You young people sleep a lot, so it's okay to sleep a little longer. There's not much work to do at home anyway."
"I couldn't sleep, so I got up. I still have to clean the house today!"
Ling Xue handed a clove of garlic and a small bowl to Aunt Liao who was making a fire. Aunt Liao took it and started peeling the garlic.
"Yes, once the house is cleaned up, we'll invite the villagers to come over and roast the bottom of the pot!" Aunt Liao planned excitedly.
There are generally no big things happening in the countryside. For example, burning the bottom of the pot when building a house is not considered a small matter. It is a good opportunity for everyone to get together and have fun.
Ling Xue picked up the kitchen knife and cut the cucumber into small pieces with a few "snap, snap" sounds. She put the pieces into a large stainless steel bowl and then peeled the tomatoes and put them into the bowl as well.
Just mash some garlic, add some salt and balsamic vinegar, and then pour some hot oil.
I washed the garlic that Aunt Liao had peeled, smashed a few cloves, and poured them into the frying pan.
Ling Xue stir-fried the greens on a gas stove for speed.
Normally they like to eat vegetables fried in a clay pot over firewood, but in the morning the time is shorter so it is not so troublesome.
The stir-fried vegetables were ready in no time, and Uncle Liao also walked in from outside at this time.
"Dinner is ready!" After Aunt Liao shouted, the whole family gathered around the small table in the yard.
Uncle Liao likes to eat porridge cooked in a big pot, saying that it smells better than the one cooked on a gas stove. In fact, Ling Xue also thinks so.
So, every morning, Aunt Liao got up early to light the fire and cook porridge, and she never used the gas stove once. It was only after Ling Xue came home that she started using the gas stove to cook. Otherwise, the gas stove at home would really be treated as a decoration.
After dinner, Ling Xue helped to put the dishes into the kitchen, but she didn't wash them herself, as that job was contracted to Liao Er.
Aunt Liao and Ling Xue took some things to Ling Xue's house next door to tidy up the room. Uncle Liao and Brother Liao also followed with some things. According to Aunt Liao, they were going to do a big job today.
In fact, the house has already been tidied. All that is left to do is put out the bedding and hang up the curtains. There is nothing else to tidy up.
The main thing is that Aunt Liao and the others are going to tidy up the vegetable garden in the backyard today. If they start planting now, Ling Xue will be able to eat vegetables from her own garden in no time.
