Chapter 41: Future Daughter-in-law?
Take a two-and-a-half-hour long-distance bus to D County, and then take a one-hour country bus to reach Lin Yi's hometown. But this time Xiao Ai followed, Lin Yi simply took a taxi, and arrived at the entrance of the village in less than forty minutes.
The village is not big, it was still a few hundred meters away from the newly built highway, but in recent years, many villagers have built new houses on the side of the road, and Lin Yi's old house is still in the original site, and he has to walk back. It is indispensable to meet a lot of people from the same village along the way, Lin Yi greeted them one by one, and naturally many sisters-in-law and aunts looked at Xiao Ai with scrutiny, asking Lin Yi "Bring your girlfriend back"?
"I told you not to come, right? Later, my mother will treat you as a daughter-in-law, see what you do!" Lin Yi looked at Xiao Ai with ill intentions and said.
"Won't you? You just say we're friends, don't you do it?" Xiao Ai was also a little embarrassed, this group of sisters-in-law and aunts, one by one, the eyes were really terrible.
"This is a village, there is only the concept of boyfriend and girlfriend, and there is no pure friendship between men and women. Lin Yi said.
"Hmph, don't scare me, it's a big deal to let them misunderstand!" Xiao Ai said with a long neck.
"Really?" Lin Yi said with a wicked smile, "Then when my mother arranges the room at night, you don't have any objections." ”
"What do you mean?" Xiao Ai was stunned for a moment and said, "Your mother won't arrange the two of us in the same room, will she?"
"That's for sure, of course the future daughter-in-law will have to live in a room with her future husband. Lin Yi said with a smile.
"Huh?" Xiao Ai was suddenly a little frightened, and then looked at Lin Yi with a wicked smile on his face, and said angrily, "Bad master, you scare me again!"
"Haha, alright, it's home. Lin Yi smiled and slapped a large vermilion iron door.
Lin Yi's house is in the east of the village, the yard was built a little early, the old-fashioned five large bungalows, plus three east wings, three west wings, the south side is also a bungalow with a door, and two are used as toilets.
"Xiao Yi, why are you back?" Lin Yi's mother Li Yue'e opened the door, looked at her son, shouted in surprise, and then her eyes lit up again, and she directly turned all her attention from Lin Yi to Xiao Ai's face, "Hey, you stinky boy, don't you say to call me when you bring your girlfriend back......?"
Xiao Ai glanced at Lin Yi embarrassedly, and sure enough, he was right......
"Auntie is so ......" Xiao Ai said as she was forced into the house by Li Yue'e and enthusiastically let into the living room.
"This kid didn't say anything in advance, look at the mess in this house......" Li Yue'e said busily, "Girl, if you're thirsty, I'll make you some ......tea."
"Auntie, I'm not thirsty, I carry water. Xiao Ai took out the orange in her bag and said.
"I've been on the car for a long time, where can I not be thirsty, boil some tea first, and I'll cook for you in a while." Li Yue'e said.
"Mom, don't be busy, this is not your future daughter-in-law, she is my apprentice. Lin Yi said.
"Little rabbit cub, what do you say? The first time a girl comes to the door, where can I be lazy? Go and go, hurry up and burn a bowl of tea!" Li Yue'e scolded, as long as Lin Yi dared to say a word again, she would come up and twist her ears!
Lin Yi smiled helplessly and went straight to the kitchen.
In the customs of Lin Yi's hometown, the so-called boiling tea is not to boil boiled water, nor to make tea leaves, but to boil a bowl of poached eggs. According to the old rules of the past, the door is a guest, but also divided into thick and thin, generally two to four poached eggs to boil, and relatives to four to six, more noble elders to come to the door, to cook eight, or even ten.
But now, the living conditions are better, how many people can eat ten poached eggs in one go? Not to mention ten, a little girl like Xiao Ai can eat two of them.
Lin Yi cooked four and filled two bowls - he got up early in the morning to take the car, and he didn't care about breakfast, so he was really hungry at this time.
However, Lin Yi returned to the hall with two bowls of poached eggs, but was snatched by his mother, and four poached eggs were put into one bowl, all of which were given to Xiao Ai.
Lin Yi couldn't cry or laugh, this mother has a daughter-in-law, and she doesn't want a son? But the question is, isn't that your future daughter-in-law?
"Ah, how is it a poached egg?" Xiao Ai said with a confused face, "Auntie, I can't finish eating so much...... Master, can you help me eat two?"
"I'll just say, it's good if she can eat two. Lin Yi took the bowl with a smile, divided two and came back, and ate it all one by one.
"You stinky boy......" Li Yue'e scolded, but she smiled, the two of them ate separately, and they didn't admit that they were their future daughter-in-law?
Speaking of getting married early in the countryside, although Lin Yi has just graduated from college for two years, there are already young men as old as Lin Yi in the same village, and the children are running all over the ground, can you not be in a hurry when you are a mother? I had already planned to wait for Lin Yi to open a hotel to repay the money borrowed, so I asked someone to tell him a matchmaker, but I didn't expect this kid to have a lot of ability, and he quietly brought a daughter-in-law from the city back.
Look at this little handsome face, that head is engaged, not to mention the village, there is no daughter-in-law in the whole town who can compare! It's just that the body is a little thin, and eighty percent can't do farm work...... But these days, farming and harvesting crops are all machines, besides, if the son opens that restaurant is really as good as he said on the phone, the young couple will definitely settle in the city in the future, where will they come back to farm?
Well, I heard that people in the city pay attention to weight loss, and you have to be thinner to look good......
Li Yue'e was full of joy when she saw it, but Lin Yi was instilling cooking knowledge in Xiao Ai: "This egg is delicious, right? This is a firewood chicken raised at our own home, which is not fed with feed, and eats pure grain." If it's a scrambled egg, the color is close to golden yellow, then it's delicious......
This stinky boy has a set, this is to fool other girls in the countryside, okay? Then you have to scramble a plate of eggs at noon to help your son......
Li Yue'e just thought of scrambled eggs here, and Xiao Ai also shouted: "The taste is indeed delicious, Master, let's broadcast scrambled eggs live at noon, let's let fans see what real eggs look like, starving them!"
"Hehe, let's not broadcast scrambled eggs at noon, I'll teach you the same kind of rice that you haven't eaten at all, or even seen, this way of eating is almost extinct in the city now, at least you can't eat it in the restaurant. Lin Yi smiled and said.
"Ahh Xiao Ai's eyes lit up and shouted.
"Well, the ingredients are very simple," Lin Yi said with a smile, "Sweet potatoes and white noodles, as long as these two!"
