The next day, Li Hehua still set off just before dawn, found yesterday's location, placed two baskets of cakes in front of him, and shouted.

With yesterday's base, people will soon buy it today, many of which were not bought yesterday, and some were bought yesterday, but the family still wants to eat after eating, so they come to buy again today, so that Although made an extra basket of cakes today, they sold out as fast as yesterday, and they were all sold out before noon.

Li Hehua took the money from selling pastries and went to buy the materials needed to make pastries tomorrow. When he went back, he saw a hawker standing on the street selling candied haws. He thought of the little guy at home for the first time and walked over involuntarily. , bought one for two cents and planned to take it back for the little guy to eat.

After taking two steps, Li Hehua paused again, looking at a stall selling pork not far away, hesitating for a while, but he walked over relentlessly, and spent fifteen cents to buy a pound of pork belly.

It's not that she wants to eat pork belly very much. The purpose of her buying this meat is actually to go back and cook braised pork and eat it with the Zhang family. It is a thank you to the Zhang family for keeping her so that she can continue to live. After all, she has been suspended, no It's Zhang's family.

Of course, the more important point is that she hopes to take this opportunity to brush some goodwill in front of Zhang's family, so that everyone can get along peacefully and feel comfortable in the next days. After all, she didn't want to be stared at by all kinds of hatred eyes as soon as she saw it. It's still necessary to bribe the landlord properly when people are under the roof. Who told her to leave before she could.

It was already afternoon when Li Hehua got home, and her stomach was rumbling with hunger, but after looking at the sky, she persisted until it was almost dusk before entering the kitchen to cook.

In the kitchen, the first thing Li Hehua did was to find the little guy behind the stove and gently put the candied haws bought for him on his lap, "Here, baby, this is the candied haws I bought for you, little one. Children like to eat it, you can try it too, if you like it, I will buy it for you often in the future, okay?"

The little guy didn't move, and he didn't eat immediately with joy like a normal child, and kept his head down.

A trace of regret flashed in Li Hehua's eyes.

He is still a child who has just come into contact with the world, but as if he has no feeling for the world, he refuses to communicate with this world and refuses anyone to enter his world. How much damage did he have to suffer to become like this?

Li Hehua knows that this child is already on the verge of being closed. If he doesn't work hard to pull him out now, then one day he will completely shrink into the world he made, cut off from the world, and become a complete autistic person, which will be destroyed in his life. .

In modern times, she has seen too many such children, so she can't bear to see such a child destroyed like this, and she wants to do her best to save this child.

She is not a doctor, and she doesn't know if this little guy can listen to what she has to say, but she still wants to try it by her own method, which is to communicate with him as much as possible.

"Little darling, do you know? I went to town to sell cakes today, just the kind of cakes I gave you yesterday. The business is very good, I've sold them all, and I can make money every day from now on, so I'll bring them to you. Is it delicious?"

"Also, as long as I cook something delicious in the future, I'll keep a copy for you first, okay? Do you think what I make is delicious? Hee hee, am I a little narcissistic, baby?"

"Little darling, I also bought braised pork today, I plan to make it for you, as well as your father, your uncle and your grandmother, you can eat it, I haven't seen meat and fish in my family, how can you gain weight? What? You see that you are so thin, but you have to make up for it, so that you can grow strong and strong, just like... as tall as your father."

Li Hehua told the little guy everything that happened today, until he had nothing to say, then stood up, "Little baby, I'll cook, you'll have meat to eat later!"

Although the little guy didn't respond, Li Hehua had a feeling that the little guy could actually hear what she said. It doesn't matter if she doesn't respond, as long as she can listen in, it's good for him if she talks to him more.

Li Hehua wanted to lose weight, so she didn't plan to eat the braised pork that she made today, and only cooked a little white rice porridge for dinner tonight. When the porridge was almost boiled, she cleaned the meat she bought, cut it into pieces, and then started to make braised pork.

After a while, the smell of the meat wafted out of the kitchen. In an instant, the whole room was filled with tempting smells, which attracted Mrs. ** to the kitchen. Seeing that Li Hehua was cooking again, he glanced at the pot. , let out a light hum, then turned and walked away.

Li Hehua glanced at the **'s back, shook his head gently, and continued to cook his own dishes.

After the last step of collecting the juice, Li Hehua put the meat in the pot on a plate, then extinguished the firewood, added water to the pot to wash it, and then filled the bowl of porridge, and walked to the back of the stove to sit with the little guy.

"Baby, I'm drinking porridge tonight, it's delicious, do you want to drink it?" After speaking, he scooped a spoonful and handed it to the little guy's mouth.

Seeing that the little guy didn't open his mouth, Li Hehua coaxed softly: "Baby, have a taste, you can have some porridge first, and then when grandma comes to the kitchen to cook, you can eat the fragrant braised pork."

But the result was naturally disappointing, the little guy just ignored her. Li Hehua couldn't, so he had to eat by himself, talking to the little guy while eating, until he had finished two bowls of porridge, he said goodbye to the little guy, and took the braised pork into the main room.

In the main room, Mrs. ** was sitting by the door sewing clothes. Seeing Li Hehua putting a plate of meat on the table, doubts flashed in his eyes, but he didn't ask her, apparently unwilling to take the initiative to pay attention to her.

Li Hehua took the initiative to explain: "Mother, this is the braised pork I bought at the market today. I specially made it for you to eat. Later, you only need to make vegetables and cook some rice."

**'s eyes flashed with surprise, but it was quickly replaced by disgust. This poisonous woman greed for so much money from his son, and he couldn't make up for it by eating her food. Why did she refuse.

Li Hehua didn't care about the **'s attitude, and returned to the firewood room after putting down the braised pork.

Seeing Li Hehua closing the door, Mrs. ** glanced at the braised pork on the table, stood up, walked to the table, and instantly a scent hit her nose, making her swallow involuntarily.

When did this poisonous woman have such good cooking skills? Whether it's the pastries made yesterday or the braised pork now, the colors, flavors, and aromas are so complete that people can't take their eyes off them. When she and Tieshan got married, she couldn't do anything, and the food cooked was even more unpalatable. Could it be that she deliberately cooked it so unpalatable? Or is it that she has practiced cooking in the past few years? But it's not right. With this woman's laziness, she will hone her cooking skills?

Mrs. ** couldn't figure out what was going on. Seeing that it was getting late, she hurried into the kitchen to cook dinner.

When Zhang Tieshan and Zhang Qingshan came back from the mountain, **'s meal was just ready.

Seeing the two pheasants and two hares on the ground, Mrs. **'s eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Have you harvested so much today?"

Zhang Qingshan was a little excited, "Mother, my brother's skills are really good, I can hit one with one arrow, I want to learn from brother, and be as good as brother."

Mrs. ** smiled proudly, "Of course your brother is amazing, you learn from your brother well, and you will be as skilled as your brother in the future."

Zhang Qingshan nodded vigorously, but suddenly smelled a smell of meat, his eyes subconsciously searched, and saw a plate of braised pork on the table, his eyes immediately lit up, "Mother, are you going to buy meat today? It's delicious!"

Mrs. **'s smile subsided, and she said angrily, "What kind of meat am I going to buy, it was made by that woman, I don't know what the plan was."

Surprise flashed in Zhang Qingshan's eyes, "She? When was she so kind? Is there some conspiracy?"

Just as Zhang Tieshan took Shulin out of the kitchen, Zhang Qingshan hurriedly said to him: "Brother, look, that woman made us a plate of braised pork, what do you think she was thinking?"

Zhang Tieshan followed Zhang Qingshan's hand and looked at the dishes on the table. Without saying anything, he sat down and said to the standing ** Mrs. He Zhang Qingshan: "Don't worry, let's eat."

Mrs. ** wanted to say more, but seeing that Zhang Tieshan was already feeding Shulin, he gave up and sat down to eat with Zhang Qingshan.

Although Zhang Qingshan was very disgusted and disdainful of Li Hehua, the chopsticks involuntarily reached out to the plate of braised pork. He comforted himself that the woman owed so much to their family, and it was nothing to eat her braised pork.

The moment he ate it, Zhang Qingshan felt a sense of pleasure flooding his brain instantly, and he was very sure that this plate of braised pork was the best braised pork he had ever eaten, and it was definitely better than the meat in the restaurant in town. , Although he has never eaten the food in the restaurant, he doesn't know why, that's how he feels.

Seeing his mother's expression the same, Zhang Qingshan was deeply puzzled, "How could that woman have such good cooking skills? Why do I feel so abnormal?"

** expressed the same doubts.

Zhang Tieshan glanced blankly at the closed firewood door, and a trace of inquiry flashed in his eyes.

After the meal, Zhang Tieshan simply cleaned up the prey, and went directly to the town to sell it at dawn the next day.

There is Jiafumanlou Restaurant in the town, which requires a lot of wild goods to cook every day, so anyone who can hunt wild goods can sell them directly to this restaurant, but because hunting is difficult and dangerous, most people can’t do it at all. Come, so there are very few people who can hunt wild goods, so the price of wild goods is not low.

Zhang Tieshan began to hunt in the mountains when he was a teenager. Since then, he has sold the prey he caught to this restaurant, so he is very familiar with the shopkeeper of the restaurant. After a few years, this is the first time to sell wild things after returning.

Zhang Tieshan walked directly into the restaurant and greeted the shopkeeper who was standing behind the counter to settle accounts, "The shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper raised his head and saw that it was Zhang Tieshan. He was pleasantly surprised, "Tieshan, it's you, where have you been these past few years?"

Zhang Tieshan showed a faint smile, "I went to the army and just came back."

The shopkeeper suddenly realized. A few years ago, the imperial court was at war with the Liang people, and ordered the army to recruit. I went, Zhang Tieshan must have gone to the battlefield to fight, and now I am very happy to see him come back safely.

The shopkeeper put away the ledger and walked out from behind the counter. He saw the prey in Zhang Tieshan's hands at a glance. He was even more happy, and patted Zhang Tieshan's stronger and stronger body. I know, you haven't been here for a few years, and no one has given it to me here, and I have to pay a high price for the guests who want to eat it."

Zhang Tieshan smiled lightly.

The shopkeeper reached out and took out a small piece of silver from the counter and handed it to Zhang Tieshan, "Come on, Tieshan, this is your prey money today." Then he turned around and called Xiao Er, "Take this prey to the kitchen for Master Wang to cook. , tell the guests that there are wild things today."

"Okay." Little Erle walked over.

Zhang Tieshan was not polite, accepted the money, and then gave the prey to Xiao Er.

The shopkeeper had another conversation with Zhang Tieshan before Zhang Tieshan left.
