The Miracle Doctor’s Two-Faced Toddler

Chapter 29 【】Father and Daughter

The whole family was exhausted from cooking braised pork all night, so they went back to the house early to rest, and Jiang Shi and Xiao Tiedan also fell asleep.

Yu Wan lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

It began to snow again outside the house, quietly, but also icy.

Yu Wan touched the slightly flimsy quilt on her body. She was busy making money these days, so she didn't have a chance to buy it. After finishing Miss Bai's business, she took her mother and younger brother to the town to do some shopping. This time, it’s time to buy what should be added, and the new year’s goods that have been reorganized are also done together.

Speaking of new year's goods, Yu Wan suddenly thought of her father who was far away at the border, and couldn't fall asleep even more.

She simply got out of bed, put on her clothes, and went to the stove with the oil lamp.

This kitchen is no longer as shabby as it was when she first came here. There is rice in the rice jar, noodles in the cupboard, seasonings and salt, and in the basket in the corner are a few things that my aunt picked from her own field. There are a few fresh wild crucian carp raised in wooden barrels, and of course the most mouth-watering thing is the bacon hanging on the wall and on the stove.

These cured meats were marinated by the uncle himself, and they were dried in the stove, which can be ventilated at ordinary times, and can be smoked when cooking. After only one day, the salty taste is not obvious, and the meat is still relatively fresh.

Yu Wan cut a piece of high-quality hind leg meat. The meat here is fat and lean, but not too fatty, which is very suitable for making meatballs.

But this alone was not enough, she still cut some forelegs, buttocks and pork tops.

She remembered that in her previous life, her aunt liked meatballs made from pork, saying that the meat was more tender.

After chopping the meat, she put minced ginger, minced garlic, minced green onion and a few fresh wild eggs into the minced meat, and then mixed in soy sauce, starch, snowflake salt, sesame oil and pepper pink.

She moved quickly, and soon became disturbed.

She took out a large bowl of sesame oil. Sesame oil is too expensive, and most of the time I still eat lard, but this time, she poured the sesame oil into the pot without leaving a drop.

In the frying pan, the aroma of fried meatballs soon wafted out.

After making the meatballs, she took out the white flour from the cupboard and started making flatbreads.

The fire in the kitchen continued to burn until dawn.

Yu Wan wiped the sweat off her forehead. At this hour, it's almost time for breakfast.

Yu Wan made some vegetable, meat and scallion burritos with unfinished ingredients. Jiang and Xiao Tiedan hadn't woken up yet, so she sent them to the old house first.

Because they were going to the town to buy food for business, the family got up early, and they were surprised to see Yu Wan coming.

"Why did you get up so early?" asked the aunt who opened the door.

Yu Wan handed the burritos in the basket forward, and said with a smile: "Good morning, auntie, haven't you had breakfast yet? I made some burritos, and you can fill your stomach with them."

At this time, the uncle and brothers Yu Feng had just finished washing, and they also came here.

When she heard that she was here to deliver cakes, her face turned pale with fright!

"Oh, I seem to have forgotten to add salt."

The pale faces of several people returned to rosy.

"I also cooked a lot of dishes for Dad... Fortunately, I didn't forget to put those."

The blood on their faces finally faded away...

...

After breakfast, brothers Yu Wan and Yu Song stepped on the ox cart to the town.

"Are you really going to bring something to third uncle?" Yu Song walked beside the ox cart, looking at Yu Wan and Cai Tanzi on the ox cart and asked.

Yu Feng was leading the cow in front.

Yu Wan nodded: "Yes, we are going to celebrate the New Year, I hope Dad can also have a good New Year."

"I can't receive it." Yu Song muttered.

The third uncle said well before leaving, and he would write to them when he arrived at the border, but six years have passed, and they have not heard from the third uncle, and there has been no response to the letter they wrote to the third uncle.

Sometimes, they all suspected that the third uncle had already met with misfortune.

But they heard that even if the dead soldiers could not bring back their bodies, they would try their best to bring back the iron plates with their names engraved on them.

They didn't receive the third uncle's iron plate, so they assumed that the third uncle was still alive.

"Father will definitely receive it." Yu Wan said with confidence while holding the jar in her arms.

Yu Song opened his mouth, trying to persuade her not to be stupid, but just as the words came to his lips, he closed his mouth resentfully when he received a warning look from his brother.

Yu Feng continued to drive the ox cart, stepping deeply into the snow: "Go to buy vegetables first, after shopping, Xiaosong will drive the ox cart back, and I will take you to the post."

Yu Wan bent her lips: "Okay."

The ingredients in the morning are the freshest, but if you don't buy them back immediately, it will easily affect the texture and taste of the stewed vegetables. Uncle has very high requirements for the ingredients.

The three of them went to the vegetable market in the town. The ingredients here were much more expensive than those in the market, but when they thought about the prices Miss Bai offered, they felt that it would be okay to spend more money.

I bought some fresh pork, mutton, chicken, duck, and vegetarian dishes. Today I didn't make noodles, but sent them to Ms. Bai for tasting. Which dishes she was satisfied with, and which dishes were only cooked for the table.

Yu Song returned to the village with a cart of ingredients.

Yu Wan went to buy a thick cotton coat and a box of the best frostbite ointment available in the town.

The border is so cold, these fathers should be useful.

Going north from Lianhua Town, a ten-mile walk is a post station. This post station is the largest post station outside the capital. It is mainly for the exchange of official letters, and unofficial letters and materials. As long as the price is reasonable, they can also receive them here.

Today's post station is overcrowded, some feed horses, some change horses, and some rest and stay.

"Over there." Yu Feng brought Yu Wan to Ma Peng on the right side of the station.

Yu Wan saw that there were three carriages here, and the first two carriages were fully loaded, but the last one still had more than half of its seats vacant.

"This is for Northwest Camp." Yu Feng pointed to the emblem on the wheel and said.

"Is it far from here to Northwest Daying?" Yu Wan asked.

"They follow the official path and are not afraid of distance." As if guessing Yu Wan's worry, Yu Feng said again, "It's cold, things can be stored for a long time."

"Yeah." Yu Wan nodded, wondering if it was because the ancient ecology hadn't been destroyed, there was no greenhouse effect, she felt that the winter here was extremely cold, and besides, she was well sealed.

A postman came over with a whip, and he was planning to go on the road.

Yu Feng stopped him: "Brother, we want to bring something."

It is said to be a gift, but in fact it is also to give money.

"Where are you taking it?" the post envoy asked.

Yu Feng said: "Take it to the Northwest Camp."

"Northwest Daying, come here." The post envoy brought the brother and sister to the third carriage, "This is the last trip of this year, what a coincidence you have come, how many things are there?"

Yu Feng looked at the big jar in his arms, then at the two small jars Yu Wan was holding, and said, "Just these three, and the burden on my back."

"The last trip, the price is more expensive than usual." The postman said.

Yu Feng glanced at Yu Wan and said, "Okay."

The post envoy pressed his hand.

Yu Feng put the jar in his and his sister's arms on it.

The post envoy was about to collect the money, when a carriage drove up to the door, a young servant jumped out of the carriage, and hurried over here.

The boy called the post envoy aside and said something, the post envoy frowned, and when he came back here, he said with a look of embarrassment: "Your things can't be delivered."

"Why?" Yu Wan asked.

The postman looked at the carriage, and saw the boy and the coachman unload one box after another from the carriage.

The postman said: "Did you see it? Those things can't fit, where is there room for you?"

Yu Wan said solemnly, "We came first."

The post envoy gave her a funny look and said, "Do you know who it is for the New Year? The newly promoted Guide generals of the Holy Majesty are all personally selected by the daughter of the general's mansion. If you are sensible, take your things quickly." go back!"
