Dinner is corn paste, braised pork, mixed with cucumbers, roasted eggplant, and corn paste is boiled to a thick thickness. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

I thought Mrs. Chen would come, but she didn't. Chen Ming asked Chen Alu to send half of the braised pork to Chen Ye's family, and by the way, invited Chen Ye's father and son to come to the house for dinner tomorrow night to discuss the matter of building a house the day after tomorrow.

Chen Alu glanced at the food on a kang table, and the little lame ran fast.

Wang shouted at the door, "Don't worry, we're waiting for you." ”

When Ah Lu returned, the family sat on the kang to eat.

Seeing the two little Zhengtai eating braised pork and eager to swallow their tongues, Chen Ming also enjoyed it very much, is this braised meat really so delicious?

Chen Afu ate a piece and felt that it was fragrant, but it was not quite like the braised pork in his previous life, but closer to the taste of braised pork.

Chen Dabao said with great satisfaction, "It's good to be rich, you can eat a full meal, and you can eat braised pork." ”

Chen Alu asked Chen Mingdao, "Dad, are we living the life of a small landlord now?"

Chen Ming smiled, "It's almost." If we exchange all the silver for fields, we should be considered a high-class household with a better life. ”

Chen Afu said with a smile, "Then let's work hard, first as a small landlord, and then as a big landlord." ”

Thinking in his heart about the bag of broken gold and pearls, even if he only sells a few things, he can be a small landlord. It's just that now the silver building in Fucheng has been made panicked by the golden swallow, and it has also spread to the nearby counties and towns, and I don't dare to sell those things at this time.

That little thing, what a mess.

Wang said with a smile, "The landlord doesn't dare to think about it, my mother is already very satisfied this day." ”

Chen Dabao has always had confidence in Chen Afu, and said, "Grandma believes in my mother, and my mother said that if she can be the master, she can be the master." ”

Everyone laughed.

The next morning, Chen Afu got up, and Wang was already busy in the kitchen.

Chen Afu saw that Wang had only boiled one egg, so he went to the small basket and took out three eggs and boiled them into the pot. said, "Our family is sick, small, my mother and I are working hard, we have to eat better." Mother, don't be afraid that the money will be spent, just earn it after spending it. ”

not only washed the pickles and mixed them with some sugar, but also asked Chen Dabao to go to the field to pick two cucumbers and mix them to eat.

Although Wang felt that he should be more frugal, the water would flow for a long time. But if her daughter says so, she won't object.

After dinner, Wang wanted to go to the county embroidery workshop to get embroidery, Chen Afu persuaded her to take less, and don't do it again at night, hurting her eyes. Chen Ming asked her to sell three catties of Xiao Yuanchun, which Chen Ye loved to drink, one catty to drink at night, and two catties to him.

If it weren't for the fear that the Hu family would be too greedy, Chen Ming would still want to honor his mother and eldest brother with some more things, so he had to endure it first.

In addition, Chen Afu asked Wang to buy a set of pen and ink inkstones and some rice paper back, saying that Ah Lu and Dabao should learn to write, and she also wants to learn.

Although Wang's is economical, she is still willing to buy pen and ink to wash inkstones, and she also hopes that her two children will study more and have a future career.

After the next day, Wang and Chen Afu began to be busy in the kitchen. Today wrap leek pork dumplings, Wang's skin, Chen Afu bun.

This is the first time his family has made dumplings, not to mention that Dabao is excited, even Alu is so excited.

A few people were talking and laughing, and Mrs. Chen came.

She said as soon as she was in the room, "Hu's girls are shallow-eyed, yesterday I heard the rumors that your family is selling sewing baskets to make a lot of money, and I want to bring the family to your house for dinner in the next morning, but I was scolded by your eldest brother, and I didn't come." Then he lowered his voice and said, "Some people in the village say that your sewing baskets earn four yuan, and some people say that they earn six yuan, are there really so many?"

Chen Ming smiled, "Well, almost." When the house was repaired, he took Ah Lu to Fucheng for treatment. ”

The old lady smiled wrinkledly, and said, "That basket is handsome, but I didn't expect it to be sold for so much money." Then he asked Chen Mingdao, "Do you have enough money?" I heard that the Qianjin Medical Center charges expensively, and it costs five yuan to say the least. My mother also saved a lot of money, and I used it to see a doctor. As long as Ah Lu's leg is healed, the old woman can close her eyes when she dies. ”

Chen Ming hurriedly said, "That money is my mother's coffin, my mother keeps it, our money is enough......"

The old lady looked at Chen Ming carefully, pulled him to the door and looked at him, and said, "Why does my mother think your face looks much better?"

Chen Ming smiled, "Well, I also feel much better these days, my breath is not tight, and my cough is less." ”

As he was talking, Chen Ye and his son, Hu Shi, Chen Dahu, and Chen Daya all came.

As soon as Hu entered the house, he complained to Wang, "It's still a relative, my brother and sister can make that needlework basket, why don't you teach me and let my family earn more money?"

Chen Afu hurriedly explained, "My mother has been doing embroidery, how can she have the kung fu to make a sewing basket." Those sewing baskets were made by me and my father, and I didn't expect them to sell so well at the time, so no one said anything. If you want to learn, I'll tell you today. ”

Hu Shi said angrily, "Now you still need to say, the whole village knows how to do it." What are you doing early?"

Under normal circumstances, Mrs. Chen still has to save face for the Hu family. said, "The eldest daughter-in-law, I don't let the second daughter-in-law tell you." It's not that I don't believe you, but I don't believe in your mother's family. As soon as you have a good deed, you can't help but go back and say, "The people in your mother's family are expensive and don't work, and you don't have to find someone to do it when you know this idea?" ”

Chen Ye also frowned and said to the Hu family, "I said that you are a girl, and you don't have a long memory every day." It's rare for the second brother's family to make some money, what are you mixed with. ”

Chen Afu was a little funny, but fortunately, the Hu family was pressed by these two mountains, and he couldn't set off a big storm.

Hu Shi began to talk about how Chen Ye's eldest brother was like his father for Chen Ming to study, and how she was like a mother to take care of her brother-in-law, "...... It's a pity that we have worked so hard, but we haven't even worn a single silk garment. ”

Chen Yexian was still happy to hear it, and the last sentence made him blush, frowning, and said, "I said you stinky girl, we are all mud legs, doing rough work every day, where are the people in silk clothes?"

Chen Ming hurriedly handed the gourd Xiao Yuanchun to Chen Ye and said, "Although we have earned some money this time, we still have to take Ah Lu to Fucheng to see the legs." I know that my eldest brother has helped us a lot over the years, so I sold two catties of Xiao Yuanchun. Later, when we earn more money, we will give it to my mother and eldest brother...... The sister-in-law bought silk clothes to wear. ”

He really didn't want to mention the Hu family, but in order not to embarrass Chen Ye too much, he still mentioned her.

Chen Ye blushed and shirked, and Mrs. Chen said, "The eldest will continue, this is the second child's intention, and you have indeed helped him a lot." ”

Chen Yecai accepted it.

During the meal, we discussed the repair of the house the next day.

At night, after Chen Afu and other treasures slept, he roughly drew the shape of the Bird's Nest and the Sydney Opera House. She is not used to brushes, and draws with charcoal strips. The bird's nest is simpler, and it is painted in a way that is not far from ten. The Sydney Opera House can only be painted from memory, and the Golden Swallow has never seen the original anyway. In the middle of the night, I put the picture into the space, and the golden swallow has not returned.

That little thing, I didn't even go home yesterday, and I don't know where I went again.

The next day, the second room of the Chen family began to get busy. Because the courtyard wall was to be made of mud bricks, one more person was invited, making a total of six people.

Wang had to do embroidery, and Chen Afu took the initiative to take on the task of cooking.
