This meal of delicacies from the mountains and seas, the two of them ate very happily.
Meng Shuyan wiped his mouth: "Mom, it turns out that crabs can still be eaten like this~"
"Not only can you eat like this, but there are more ways to eat it, and it will be a long time coming, and my mother will make it for you in the future." Tian Sangsang was full of confidence: "We will get better and better, and we don't have to go hungry anymore." ”
I met Li Xiaoqin at night.
Li Xiaoqin was excited: "Sangsang, what kind of crab xiaolongbao did you send at noon, it tastes delicious, it is crab fragrant and meaty, if we didn't stop it, the dog would almost kill all the cages." When did you become so good at craft?"
Tian Sangsang smiled, "This is also what our family thinks." He accidentally opened the boiled crab and found that it was edible, so I thought, it tasted good, and I also wrapped it in as a filling. ”
"What, you said that crab meat can also be eaten? I thought it was because you used crab soup and dough to make it smell like crab. "Li Xiaoqin has heard that crabs can be eaten, but that is how people in the city eat them.
"No, it's made with a mixture of crab meat and pork. ”
Li Xiaoqin looked at Tian Sangsang in front of him, obviously he was a person, and his temperament was already very different. I like to laugh when I speak, and I am refreshing. She couldn't help but smile: "Since you were rescued from the bottom of the hillside, you are getting better and better at living, and this family finally has a taste of home, and even pork is eaten." ”
Looking at her face, she is suspicious? She doesn't raise pigs at home, and she hasn't been to the town's supply and marketing cooperatives recently, so where did she get the pork?
"That is, when I was catching fish, I met Brother Li, who was enthusiastic about the people in the village and gave me some pork. Tian Sangsang explained indifferently.
Li Xiaoqin is not unusual, secretly thinking that she will dig up a few crabs tomorrow and come back, and cook them for her family to taste. The man went to a distant place, Li Xiaoqin's cooking skills are not very good, most of the time the family is still cooking by her mother-in-law, although her mother-in-law didn't say anything, but she has a lot of complaints in her heart. Li Xiaoqin has always been heartless, when she hated Tian Sangsang in the past, she could hate it vigorously; recently, people have only sent her a few things, and she can feel good from the bottom of her heart.
……
"Sister-in-law of the Li family, feed the ducks. Chen Guilan Shi Ran walked into the courtyard and said with a smile.
"Tian San's daughter-in-law, why are you here?" Sister-in-law Li put down the basin in her hand, paused for a moment, and then greeted warmly, "Hurry up, sit inside." ”
She walked with a limp, and at a glance she could tell that she had a leg problem.
The Li family is not a big family in the village, and Li's sister-in-law herself has a leg disease, is a widow, and only has one son, Li Zhengxiong.
Li Zhengxiong is twenty-six this year, and he could have married a wife a long time ago, but he is still single. Half of the reason for this is because of the situation of his family, and half of it is because a girl who had been married to him before suddenly fell ill and died a few days before marriage. It stands to reason that the girl has always been frail, and she beat the disease in her mother's womb, and the matchmaker deliberately concealed the illness when she introduced it, and now that she is dead, Li Zhengxiong will be miserable. Everyone said that he often hunted, and his body was too evil, and he would have a bloody disaster when he met his wife.
Therefore, even if people have legs and figures, no one is willing to marry their daughter to him, and even if any girl's family is interested in him, they don't have the courage to marry.
Only Widow Meng always likes to come to him.
Chen Guilan followed into the house, although there were no furnishings in the house, it was full of the smell of meat, and she couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
"I don't have anything at home, Zhengxiong likes to hunt some game, this is the rabbit meat I pickled, you can taste it." ”
"Sister-in-law Li, didn't I say, isn't you the most blessed person in this village? There is such a capable son as Zhengxiong, who has meat to eat every day. Let's guys, which family can eat meat every three or five times, they only eat three or four meals a year. Chen Guilan ate while talking, not ambiguous and polite at all.
Sister-in-law Li was so worried about her son's lifelong event that her hair turned white. She didn't hear the rumors of Widow Meng and her family Zhengxiong in the village, not to mention that Widow Meng had a good attitude towards her and was also interested in her family Zhengxiong. It's just that she's a widow! Of course, the meat is not for Chen Guilan to eat, and Sister-in-law Li doesn't throw out the topic.
"What's the use of having meat to eat, when can I hold my grandson. We're suffering because of this hunting...... Alas, I haven't met a suitable one yet. "Mean, did you have someone over there to introduce me?
Chen Guilan didn't follow her words, but said slowly: "There's nothing wrong with hunting, Zhengxiong is also kind-hearted, he likes to give things to people, and no one in the village likes him." Today, he also sent game to my eldest brother's Sangsang girl, and I saw it all. ”
"Tian San's daughter-in-law, what's going on?" Sister-in-law Li changed her face: "Your big girl, she is always stuffy in the house on weekdays, and she doesn't go out, why did she meet our family?"
"Sister-in-law, I don't like to listen to what you say, our family is not such a shameless girl. After the eldest brother and sister-in-law left, she became more and more up, and did not take me and her milk in her eyes, and beat our family Tian Tian a few days ago, which is too unusual! Recently, she always likes to go to the back mountain, and it is natural to meet your family Zhengxiong. ”
Hearing that Sister-in-law Li's ears are not like that? I love to go to the back mountain, why do I go to the back mountain? Isn't it just deliberately hooking up with her family Zhengxiong?
She is eager to hold her grandson, and what she wants to hold is not someone else's seed, and the big girl of the Tian family, who is black, fat and ugly and doesn't do anything, and she doesn't want to give it to others as a daughter-in-law.
Tian Sangsang heard about Li Zhengxiong's home, wrapped eight crab roe xiaolongbao in cloth, and it was still hot in his hand.
"Brother Li!?" Although the door of the courtyard was not closed, she did not dare to enter easily. The courtyard of the Li family was fenced with iron wire, and the fence was very strong. There was a vegetable patch, a few chickens and ducks, and pigs, and the smell of pigs wafting in the air.
"Who!?" a woman came out on crutches.
Tian Sangsang immediately recognized that this was Li Zhengxiong's old mother, and she said politely: "Aunt Li, isn't Brother Li at home?"
"He's not at home, what's the matter with him?"
The tone is a little unkind.
Tian Sangsang didn't wonder her tone, the original owner was not annoying. She was still smiling: "It's such a big lady, today I went to the back mountain to catch fish, thanks to the help of Brother Li, Brother Li is a good person, look at our orphans and widows, and specially gave me a pigeon." Such a good person, I can't take people's things for nothing, I made a cage of crab roe xiaolongbao, specially brought to you and Brother Li to taste, you must accept it. ”
Sister-in-law Li's face turned slightly pale, "You went to Houshan these days just to catch fish?"
"Well, luckily, with the help of Brother Li, I caught some fish and stewed fish soup. ”
Reach out and don't hit the smiley person. Sister-in-law Li didn't understand the meaning of crab roe xiaolongbao, but it wasn't just a bun, she accepted it, "You have a heart." ”
"It should. Tian Sangsang said and took his leave.
In the evening, Li Zhengxiong came back and saw the old lady sitting in the hall, the candle shadow swaying on her face.
Looking at her son, Sister-in-law Li said, "Let me ask you, did you send a pigeon to the eldest girl of the Tian family today?"
