Chapter 8: A Little Show

The sun fell at the foot of the mountain, revealing half of his face. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info afterglow reflects the sunset, the dazzling gold, the red lively, the white sacred, the purple magnificent, the gray deep. The breeze floats and is ever-changing.

The cowherd boy rode on the back of the ox and sang loudly, startling the birds returning to their nests. The birds circled the sky, chirping and flying back into their nests.

Flocks of dragonflies hovering around the fields to feed.

Han's father walked in front with his hands behind his back, the second brother Han Yu, the third brother Han Jie and Han Xuan followed behind with hoes and shovels and other things, and Han's mother and Luo Qinian carried a vegetable basket and hung at the back.

This situation and this scene are warm and tranquil.

When she got home, Zhang Guihua hurriedly brought half a bucket of water over to wash everyone's hands and asked Han's mother: "Mother, what are you cooking tonight?"

"Braised sorghum rice, stewed bacon and potatoes, pasted pancakes, and fried two green vegetables, it's almost. ”

Zhang Guihua is impatient to cook, and she is most afraid of pancakes, and she will be scolded every time she pancakes. When he was depressed, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Luo Qinian squatting by the bucket with low eyebrows and washing his hands. Her big eyes turned around twice, and she smiled at Han's mother: "Mother, my sister-in-law has just arrived at our house, and my daughter-in-law has not yet saluted tea." It's better to show you a hand tonight, if you eat well, my mother will agree to the identity of my sister-in-law. ”

Mother Han knew Zhang Guihua's thoughts, and she also intended to try the craftsmanship of her new daughter-in-law, so she nodded: "Old man, you cook tonight." ”

The earthen stoves in the village are all the same, and Luo Qinian doesn't have to worry about not being able to live. And the men of the Han family are diligent, the firewood is chopped and stacked neatly by the wall, and the thatch that ignites the fire is also very dry and flammable.

Luo Qinian first washed rice and sat in a pot to stew, and carefully asked the family about the taste when adding water. Make sure you like to eat harder meals, and put less water. Then put the noodles aside and wake up. Then wash the greens, peel the potatoes and stew them in a pot. When the potatoes are half cooked, place the cakes on the edge of the pan. Take advantage of this to stir-fry quickly.

"It's time to eat. ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Guihua and Zhang Xiaofeng went into the kitchen to serve dishes.

"Mother, what to cook tonight, it's so fragrant. The fourth brother, Han Xian, sniffed his nose and entered the house.

"What good things can be, home-cooked side dishes, cooked by your sister-in-law. Han's mother laughed angrily.

After Han's father took a bite of the dish, the Han family started.

"Sister-in-law, in the future, we will cook for you, Xiang. Han Xian is still young, and he picks his mouth, and the fried vegetables of the second sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law make him have a stomachache on weekdays.

"Eat more if it's delicious. "Luo Qinian doesn't care, it's just cooking, it's very easy.

Zhang Guihua and Zhang Xiaofeng also nodded in agreement. One of them is too lazy, the other is squeamish, and they don't want to be tired.

Han's mother saw their expressions in her eyes, "The meals are made in each room in turn, one room for a day." No, if you don't do it well, you can learn from each other. ”

Zhang Guihua pursed her mouth, but she didn't dare to refute. In the Han family, Han's mother has full authority over small matters, and Han's father has absolute authority over major matters. So she turned to Luo Qinian, blinking with big eyes, and kept signaling Luo Qinian to take the initiative.

Luo Qinian is not stupid, her willingness to be calculated by others is the same thing, so she only eats quietly and ignores Zhang Guihua.

Zhang Guihua was secretly annoyed, and Liang Zi was so finished.

The Han family did not go to bed after eating a full meal, like other families in the village, but the family sat in the house or sat in the courtyard and chatted. Or talk about farming, or talk about the news, and occasionally, pull the gossip.

Luo Qinian's first time attending a family meeting was very novel.

Han's father also likes to smoke hookah, and his posture of smoking hookah is also quite special. He likes to take a slow puff and then pout his lips into the sky and puff out a cigarette, or blow it into a circle, or spit it out into a mushroom. After vomiting, close your eyes and enjoy it for a while.

"Luo Erya, you will be your sister-in-law in the future. Honor her. Of course, there is something wrong with her, and you should also remind her. ”

Father Han is recognizing Luo Qinian's identity in the Han family. Luo Qinian was happy, and her eyes were red.

Han Xiu pursed her lips, and insinuated that men were really, otherwise how could she pass the test so easily.

Luo Qinian secretly pulled the corners of Han Xuan's clothes and winked at him. Han Xuan understood: "Dad, mother, Erya has changed her name." It was changed last night, and it was called Qi Nian. Qi Nian of the Jade Appearance. ”

"Luo Qinian, Qi Nian's jade appearance. Not bad, good name. "Han Jie is also a good reader, a self-proclaimed gentleman, and yearns for all good things. Once he also dreamed of marrying a talented girl who was literate and hyphenated, and lived a life of red sleeves and fragrance. Getting married to Zhang Xiaofeng can be regarded as what he wants.

Zhang Xiaofeng is the daughter of the shopkeeper of Jufu Building in the town, and her brother is Han Jie's classmate. She is different from other girls since she was a child, she doesn't like female red embroidery, she only loves to read, and she is fascinated by poetry and songs. There is an elegant charm between the eyebrows and eyes.

She has a sensitive and suspicious temperament, and she has to stop and sigh when she sees the rain hitting the plantains. At this time, seeing her husband's burning eyes and praising Luo Qinian, she couldn't help but be surprised. And Luo Qinian is beautiful and beautiful, and she is at the age of fresh and delicious, and she is worried that her husband will be seduced by her. Therefore, Luo Qinian was fortified and secretly prevented the two from contacting.

Han's father and Han's mother are all casual, anyway, in their place, no matter what your surname is, you are called the eldest daughter-in-law.

The family chattered about weeding tomorrow. He also said that this year's millet looks vigorous and is better than in previous years......

Luo Qinian listened with relish, covering his mouth and snickering from time to time.

Han Xuan secretly observed his daughter-in-law, and saw that she was distracted for a while, her eyes were dumbfounded, she was snickering and cunning, and she was frowning and nervous and worried......

……

Luo Qinian shook off the folded quilt, and suddenly a rancid smell suffocated her: Oops, I forgot to wash the quilt cover and dry the quilt today. The first thing I do when I wake up tomorrow morning is to unpack and wash the bedding, otherwise I will have to stay up all night tomorrow night.

Wrinkled his nose and turned around to see Han Xuan sitting on a small stool, looking at her with burning eyes, and a smile on the corner of his mouth.

She suddenly had a stirred spirit: "Do you want it, the cave room?" After speaking, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, nervous.

"We haven't had a wedding yet. ”

Luo Qinian was pleasantly surprised, she was afraid to do that, and every time she died in pain. Although he is married to Han Xuan now, it is natural for the husband and wife to be righteous, but it is a day to be able to drag it out for a day.

The next day, God didn't like it, and it began to drizzle early in the morning, and soon it turned into moderate rain.

Luo Qinian stared at the rainwater flowing down the eaves of the house with a complaint, and the plan to wash the quilt cover was in vain.

As long as there is work in the field, no matter whether the sun is shining or the rain is pouring down, the peasant family will not hide and snuggle at home. The same is true of the Han family. In Han's father's words, it's good to rain. When the soil is moist when it rains, there is no need to hoe the grass, only pull it by hand, which is light and clean.

Luo Qinian made lunch with his brother and daughter-in-law, and went to deliver food to them alone.

Passing by the ditch, stepping on the single-plank bridge, I looked down and saw a few palm-sized grass carp swimming at the bottom of the ditch, and my heart was happy. Hurriedly ran to the ground and pulled Han Xuan over.

came with Han Yu and Han Jie.

Han Yu went back and forth on the edge of the ditch with his hands behind his back, and sure enough, he saw the shadow of the fish swaying in the water and grass. Laughing: "Tonight's tooth sacrifice!"

The three brothers blocked the narrow part of the ditch with silt and poured water out.

Luo Qinian watched the fun beside him, took off his shoes, and pulled his pants into the ditch. Countrymen, don't pay attention, as long as they don't go out of line, no one says. Therefore, Luo Qinian is not taboo at all.

The soft mud "poof" passed through her toes, slippery, cold, and a little itchy, which was very interesting.

"The water is cold, you go up. ”

"No, I want to play. Her voice was soft and glutinous, with a little bit of a little daughter's delicateness, and the hearts of the three brothers were instantly numb.

"Then you stand firm and don't fall. ”

"Uh-huh. Luo Qinian's chick nodded, extremely neat.

"Hurry up, over there, over there, it's a big one...... Ah, I got it, hahaha, it's a big ......."

Luo Qinian ostentatiously raised the fish in her hand, but the fish was too slippery, and she escaped from her hands.

"Alas......"

Luo Qinian was annoyed, and his eyes chased after the naughty grass carp.

Han Jie, who had already caught five or six fish, teased her: "Sister-in-law, yes, it took so long to catch one, and it was released." ”

"Hmph!" Luo Qi snorted young and ignored him. She catches fish for fun, and the fish they catch are for food.

Suddenly, she didn't move. It felt like something soft was wriggling under her feet, slippery and round.

Han ...... Han Xuan, there is a snake, I stepped on the snake......" Her little face turned pale with fright.

"It's probably a water snake, not afraid, not poisonous. Han Xuan comforted her and hurriedly squatted down and used his hands to puff the water at her feet. The water snake is venomous, and he is also worried, but in order to appease her, he coaxes her that the water snake is not venomous.

Han Yu and Han Jie also came over to help.

I saw Han Jie poking into the bottom of the water with one hand and sneering: "Don't be afraid, it's not a water snake, it's an eel." ”

Before he finished speaking, Han Xuan had already caught the eel and picked it up. Good fellows, T'e-chang T'Fat.

"I'm going to braise you tonight!"

Han Xuan laughed: "What else will you do besides braised wine?"

"It's a lot, boiled, steamed, fried, stir-fried...... Whatever you want, I'll do it. ”

"Yo, then we've got a good deal tonight. ”

"That's it. ”

In his previous life, Li Xianren picked his mouth, and he got angry when the food didn't fit. For this reason, she was beaten and scolded by Li's mother. For Li Xianren's comfort in eating, and in order to avoid being scolded, she pondered the food when she was fine, and she really refined to the level of a chef.

"Let's make a stir-fried eel tonight. "Han Yu has a strong taste and likes to stir-fry fried food.

"Second brother, it's easy to get hot in spring, so let's steam it. "Han Jie has a light taste and doesn't like meals that are heavy on oil and salt.

"What about you, what do you want to eat?" Luo Qinian asked Han Xuan, it seemed that he didn't pick his mouth, what to eat.

"It's all good. Sure enough, Luo Qinian's face was black.

"You always have a special favorite to eat, don't you? Tell me, I'll make it for you later." ”

"It's all delicious. "Luo Qinian, hehe, it's easy to feed, it's good!

Don't ask, observe slowly in the future, she will always know.

When he got home, Han Jie couldn't wait to help kill the fish, and he was skillful in his movements, and he processed all the fish in less than two quarters of an hour.

"Sister-in-law, okay, hurry up and cook it. ”

"There's no hurry. Luo Qinian took the fish, then put it on a plate, and spread the seasoning evenly on the fish. "Leave it for two quarters of an hour, wait until it tastes good before cooking, it tastes better. ”

"Phew, I still have to pickle. I didn't know before, no wonder the boiled fish pieces were faint and tasteless. ”

"Okay, let's go out first, and cook it when my father and mother come back. ”

Today it happened to be Luo Qinian's turn to cook, and she wanted to make a whole fish feast for everyone to try.
