" That's true." Zhou Xiaocui was looking forward to her marriage partner, but she was also a little confused about the future." But when I think about how I'll have to work around the stove every day after I get married, and if I'm not my husband, I'll be a child. I feel that kind of life is very scary..."
"You can't say that." Madam Tian smiled and said gently," When you get married, you will find that you don't have the leisure to be a girl at all, and you won't have time to think about these things. Just your mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and husband are enough for you to worry about.”
Lin Siyan listened to their conversation silently. She was surprised by Zhou Xiaocui's thoughts, but at the same time, she felt a little regretful. If she had grown up in the society of her previous life, she might have really done something. However, in this world, the women in the eyes of the world were married and had children. They followed the so-called 'three obedience and four virtues' principle until they died of old age.
" Let's not talk about this anymore. It's annoying to talk about it." Zhou Xiaocui stood up and walked to the back of the bamboo house. She couldn't help but exclaim when she saw the garden full of all kinds of vegetables." Siyan, did you grow these yourself?"”
Lin Siyan helped Madam Tian to the backyard." Yes, otherwise, there wouldn't be any vegetables in this house other than the prey we hunted. We can't rely on buying everything."”
"What is this?" Zhou Xiaocui pointed at a red fruit and asked," It looks red and tempting.”
After Madam Tian steadied herself, Lin Siyan walked over and picked two tomatoes. She handed one to Zhou Xiaocui and the other to Madam Tian. Then, she picked a small one." This is called a tomato. You can call it a tomato. You can eat it directly or stir-fry it."”
As she spoke, she wiped the mud off the tomato skin and took a bite. It was sour and sweet. She did not know if it was because of the different seeds or the different planting methods, but she felt that this tomato tasted much better than the ones she had eaten in her previous life.
"Okay, let's try it." Zhou Xiaocui imitated Lin Siyan and took a bite. After chewing a few times, she swallowed and said," It's not particularly sour or sweet. It feels good!"”
"This tomato tastes quite delicious.”Madam Tian quickly finished a tomato and said," This is good stuff. Maybe we can sell it at the temple fair for a good price."”
Lin Siyan saw that the tomatoes were to Mrs. Tian's liking, so she picked another big tomato for her. Then, she asked," When is the temple fair that Sister-in-law mentioned?”
Zhou Xiaocui hurriedly explained to her," Have you forgotten? Every year, on the twelfth day of the eighth lunar month, on King Pangu's birthday, a temple fair will be held at the foot of Pangu Mountain. At that time, a lot of people will go there to offer incense, dance lions, and set off firecrackers. Besides, there are all kinds of snacks and cute toys on both sides of the temple. I used to go there a lot when I was young.”
Lin Siyan was stunned. She did manage to dig out some memories about the temple fair from her memory, but it was so old that she didn't even know that there was such a temple fair.
Zhou Xiaocui finished speaking excitedly. Seeing her confused expression, she couldn't help but purse her lips." You must have forgotten about it after not going for so long.”
"Yeah, I almost forgot what it was like.”Lin Siyan sighed." There are still seven or eight days until the 12th of August. It's still early. Shall we go together then?"”
" Not this year," Zhou Xiaocui said, a little disappointed." The playgirl asked me to embroider a few more pouches during this period of time. I'll have to sell them together. I don't have time to play."”
"I'm afraid Siyan can't go and play either.”Madam Tian looked at Lin Siyan, afraid that she would misunderstand, and quickly explained," After all, you're married too. I'm not sure if Brother ** will let you go."”
Lin Siyan nodded understandingly. She was already married, so she was under her husband's control. If her husband didn't let her go, she couldn't do anything. However, she was definitely going this time. After all, this was a rare opportunity to make money. Moreover, she had long wanted to see if her ancient barbecue stall was popular here.
Zhou Xiaocui said indignantly," Who would go that far? It's not like we're stealing!”
"It's hard to say." Lin Siyan said dryly. In fact, she didn't think Li Xiaobo would stop her. After all, there was nothing much to do at home.
"You guys can go and play however you want.”Madam Tian changed the topic.
The three of them couldn't help but smile at each other. Madam Tian was already five or six months pregnant. Her high bulging belly looked like she was seven or eight months pregnant. The doctor said that she was pregnant with twins. Her body was already heavy. How could the Liu family allow her to go to a crowded place like the temple fair? It would be bad if she accidentally bumped into something.
Ever since she heard them talk about the temple fair, Lin Siyan's mind became active, and she almost didn't pay attention to what they were saying. However, she didn't forget to secretly draw out some spiritual spring water for Madam Tian to drink when she said she was thirsty. It was purely a return gift for the Liu family's care for Li ** over the past few years.
Perhaps Mrs. Tian was tired, or perhaps they realized that Mr. Li was coming back for dinner, so they got up and left after chatting with Lin Siyan for a while.
When it was noon, Lin Siyan finished cooking but Li Xiaobo didn't come back. She found a piece of used rice paper and used half of it to wrap the charcoal. Then she started writing on the remaining half of the paper. The things she wrote were all things she planned to sell at the temple fair, such as the ingredients for the kebabs, the suitable vegetables, the preparation of the charcoal fire, and so on. Other than that, she also tried to make some cold noodles or mung bean soup to relieve the heat.
Because the temple fair was not far from them, about half an hour's drive, she had to prepare the fire, mix the meat in advance, and prepare the bamboo skewers in advance... Lin Siyan suddenly felt that in this place where there was nothing, many things had to be considered thoroughly, otherwise everything would only exist in her imagination.
Lin Siyan started to look for all kinds of spices at home. Because she was a foodie, she had prepared a lot of things at home. She had planted some onions and ginger. The main spices here were pepper and salt, so she bought a lot of pepper. Although she didn't like pepper, she couldn't stop Li Xiaobo from liking it. Other than that, he had never even heard of the sauce wine he wanted.
Fortunately, Lin Siyan was not a perfectionist foodie, so she directly ignored the fact that there was no soy sauce. Instead, she ground the dried chili, cumin, and pepper she bought into powder and mixed them together, preparing to buy meat to marinate.
Although there was a lot of meat from wild animals at home occasionally, it was usually more expensive. She could not bear to use such good meat, so she decided to buy a few pounds of meat and prepare a barbecue rack. She had to customize the rack. Thinking of this, Lin Siyan suddenly realized that what she had to do was actually quite troublesome.
