Chapter 43: The Chef

Yan Shunhua's scalp was numb, she only thought about doing housework well, so as to avoid Yan Liu's worries, but she forgot that she was still a little child now, except for eating, drinking, and sleeping, all she had left was playing, she shouldn't be able to cook at all, bastard!

This time the game is big.

"Gaozu taught me, and let me practice more. ”

She picked up the rice in her mouth, ate a few bites silently, and saw that everyone still didn't move the chopsticks, just looked at her intently, and suddenly felt like sitting on pins and needles, raised her little face and said vaguely, "It's much more unpalatable than what Gaozu made, really!"

Broken jars are broken, and it's not bad this time anyway.

Yan Shengguo sandwiched a shrimp, peeled it off and dipped it in a little homemade soy sauce, put it in Yan Liu's bowl, and then said, "Eat it." ”

I have a great memory, and I can cook a little bit, which is not so surprising.

He was very receptive, and under his leadership, everyone else ate in silence. Only Yan Zhaoming hesitated for a while, went out lightly, and came back with a basket, two pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and a few plates.

"Dad, I'll pretend to be some for Rou Niang and Xiao Ni'er first. ”

Seeing that Yan Shengguo was silent, Yan Zhaoming picked some dishes from various plates, and Yan Daya helped and poured half a bowl of shrimp into it, "Sister-in-law likes to eat this." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, pack more. ”

Yan Liu's family was a little reluctant, as a daughter-in-law, it was inconvenient for Fang Rouniang to enter the master bedroom, and she actually forgot her duty as a mother-in-law for a while.

Seeing that she stood up and wanted to pour the rest of the shrimp into it, Yan Shengguo snorted, a little unhappy.

"Alright, you're pregnant. ”

Yan Liushi sat down in a daze, but didn't dare to fall over.

Seeing this, Yan Shunhua hesitated for a moment, but finally asked, "Big brother, can my sister-in-law eat shrimp? I mean, has she eaten shrimp before?

Eating some shrimp in the early stage of pregnant women is conducive to supplementing protein and iodine, and can also protect the cardiovascular system, but there is a premise, that is, the body will not be allergic to shrimp meat.

"It's okay, she loves to eat this, and she used to eat it and it was fine. ”

Yan Zhaoming smiled, and hurriedly went to find his wife and daughter with a basket full of food.

Yan Shunhua shrugged his shoulders, didn't care about this twenty-four filial brother, and continued to bury his head in hardship.

Yan Liushi obviously didn't have allergies, and the rest of the shrimp were all peeled by Yan Shengguo and put in her bowl. The three daughters had no opinion, but were smiling.

Yan Daya smiled in her heart, Yan Shunhua didn't make fun of each other, but Yan Erya was not afraid to learn from Yan Shengguo's appearance, and from time to time she took the dishes seriously.

This meal made everyone's faces red.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, although it rained heavily in the next few days, but the people in the four rooms of the Yan family are full of joy. Even Fang Rouniang smiled because her husband stayed at home with her for several days.

Of course, she still has a lot of complaints about Yan Liu's pregnancy this time.

In her opinion, it is enough for her husband Yan Zhaoming to have a son in the fourth room. What's more, my mother-in-law is now in her thirties and has become a grandmother, and she is still messing around with her father-in-law for the old man, and making such a child is not embarrassing, it is simply a loss of face as a child.

It's just that she doesn't like it in her heart, and she doesn't dare to show it on her face.

After all, her husband is right, if there is another brother in the future, when there is something going on at home, the couple will not have to support the two of them.

Anyway, Yan Zhaoming is the elder, even if her mother-in-law really gives birth to a younger son in the future, her family will take the lion's share, and compared to the risks that serving the elderly in-laws will take, they will make a lot of money.

Fang Rouniang's abacus in her heart crackled, so she saw Yan Liu's eyebrows and smiles in the past few days.

But rejoicing is rejoicing, even if there is a big happy event, the autumn harvest still has to be carried out.

Because of this sudden heavy rain, the people of Yanjia Village were nervously busy after the rain stopped, and they set off to cut rice in the morning when it was dark, and they would not carry them home in bundles until it was completely dark.

There are only two mothers and sons in the Yan family's big house, and Wu Shuyuan only planted two acres of land, so she was the first to harvest it.

The second house of the Yan family planted fifteen acres, and the whole family went out together, so busy that it was dark, and even Yan Xiaoyue, who was four years old, also carried a special small basket and followed the adults to pick up the fallen grains in the morning and in the dark.

Yan Shengding's three-room room is the easiest, Yan Shengding originally did not plan to continue planting, but his wife Yan Luo, who was born in a merchant, insisted, afraid that the land would be barren and that he would have to buy rice at a high price in his own pocket in the disaster year, so he was stunned and asked someone to plant the eight acres of land allocated to their family every year. It's the same this year, I've hired someone.

And the Yan family's four-room is the most embarrassing. Ten acres of land, according to the previous way of Yan Zhaoming, Yan Liu's, and Yan Daya working together, it can be all cut in ten days at most.

But now there are two more pregnant women, and they don't dare to let them work, and they have to watch them all the time for fear of a mistake, so they have been nervous.

Even Yan Xiaoni, the youngest, didn't dare to cry loudly when she encountered unhappy things, for fear of annoying the nervous adults.

Fortunately, Yan Erya and Yan Shunhua are both neat and neat people, and the sisters divided their labor, one followed to help in the fields, and the other stayed at home to help cook.

It took turns to work for more than ten days, and their family was able to harvest everything before October.

If it weren't for the fact that the rice had to be thrown into the stone trough manually to separate the grains and straw, I am afraid they would have been much faster.

But it still makes sense to grab it like this. At least for Yan Shunhua, now that she has come up with new kinds of meals, all the people in the four rooms are calm, and even Fang Rouniang, who looks at her unpleasantly, is quite looking forward to it when it is time to eat.

It's not that Yan Liu's and Yan Daya's cooking was not delicious in the past, but Yan Shunhua's method is more novel, there are many patterns, and the taste is more delicious. The adults ate happily, Yan Xiaoni ate a lot more than usual because she had exclusive dishes for every meal, and she gained a lot of weight in ten days.

Because of her popularity, Yan Shunhua naturally became the top chef.

Yan Liu's family was originally unwilling to let her daughter work, but because of Yan Shengguo's worries and the persistence of her children, she was forced to be idle, and even embroidery could only be done for an hour during the day, and she would be ordered by Yan Shengguo not to move anymore.

The autumn is high and cool, and the rice of the whole village is sent to the big stone field to dry, which is the most troublesome work after the autumn harvest. It does not make people highly tired, but it is time-consuming because it needs to be turned over from time to time, so it is mostly borne by the elderly and children.

Yan Zhaoming and Yan Erya took turns to do the drying work in Yan Sifang, and Yan Shunhua would follow behind to walk around every now and then.
