Chapter 190: The Beginning
This sentence was said by Xiao Shu'er in front of the big guy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Then, Xiao Shu'er pulled Xia Solstice aside and secretly said another word to Xia Solstice.
“…… Listening to what they say, I don't know what they mean. Aunt Sun also mentioned you. "Xiao Shu'er is mysterious, and now he knows that when he hears what Tian is saying behind his back, he will tell Xia Solstice as it is.
Xia Zhi frowned slightly. "How did they mention me?"
"Fifth Aunt Sun told her mother that you are out of breath, Changjun. When they saw me enter the house, they stopped talking. Xiao Shu'er raised her hand and scratched her head.
Xia Zhi interrogated Xiao Shu'er again, and roughly understood what the situation was. It's really like what she and Sun Lan'er suspected, Sun Wang's family really didn't have a good heart.
The things bought back were put on a kang, Xia Zhi walked to the side to talk to Xiao Shu'er, and Xiao Heiyu'er explained them to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia one by one. What plate oil boiled out of the oil is sixteen to eat until the New Year, boiled out of the oil residue sixteen said to make dumplings for the big guy, if it is not enough, then chop some meat filling, anyway, I also bought another pork belly, isn't it.
Little Heiyuer said here, and Mrs. Xia was helping in her heart.
"You can wait for this oil residue to boil out, and you can eat it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. At this time, the cockles can't be put back when they are bought. Why did you buy these old ones, are you going to eat a few meals?" asked Mrs. Xia.
"Sixteen!" the little black fish turned his head and called the summer solstice.
"It's coming. "Xia Solstice is busy and comes," Milk, let's eat this cockle today, and we will eat a few meals." Our three families, this thing looks like a lot, and there isn't much to peel it off. ”
"That's right. Mrs. Xia smiled and nodded, "Then I'll ask your third aunt to buy two more pieces of tofu." How about stewing tofu with cockles and stir-frying a leek?"
"Okay, milk, look at the arrangement. Xia Zhi smiled.
Mrs. Xia immediately found Aunt Xia and Aunt Xia San, but Layue did not let Aunt Xia San go, but took the Xia Lin sisters and brothers. Moreover, Layue has not asked for money from Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia San.
In Layue's words, she still has some money left after selling her purse, which is enough to buy several pieces of tofu.
Everyone laughs. Uncle Xia San and Aunt Xia San didn't ask for the rest of the money in Layue, although several of the purses were embroidered by Aunt Xia. In the words of Aunt Xia San, when they were parents, they didn't usually give their children pocket money, nor did they buy any snacks for their children, and the money from selling purses in the future will all go to Layue. Wax Moon loves to spend how you want.
Layue is a very sensible little girl, with the example of the summer solstice, her money will definitely not be spent only for herself. The fragrant pancreas she bought today was for the family, and she also bought snacks for Xiao Xialin.
Mrs. Xia was busy taking Aunt Xia San to soak cockles and peel cockles, and Uncle Xia San personally went to the vegetable garden behind to cut leeks. In these jobs, Mrs. Xia still didn't let Xia Zhi interfere, so she let her either play with the little black fish or talk to Old Man Xia.
Old Man Xia really had something to ask about the summer solstice. The first person he asked was Xia Xiucai.
Xia Zhi told Old Man Xia that they had watched Xia Xiucai get into the car and go to Fucheng. Old Man Xia nodded, only then was he relieved.
The little black fish next to him also told Old Man Xia about Xia Xiucai's car money given by Xia Zhi. "My eldest brother has a car, and he has to ask Sixteen to pay for him. ”
Little Heiyuer is most concerned about the grievances of the summer solstice, but the old man Xia looks at this problem from another angle. He smiled and praised Xia Zhi, saying that Xia Zhi was thoughtful, and his heart hurt Xia Zhi by two points. Then, he remembered what Xiao Shu'er had said, and Xiao Shu'er had called Xia Solstice to the side.
"The fifth daughter-in-law wants to take care of the eldest and second daughters?" asked the old man Xia.
"I guess I guess the little tree heard it. Xia Zhi nodded, "When I saw her look at our house in the past two days, both eyes lit up. My Sister Lanzi also thinks that she doesn't have any kind eyes. ”
"Hmm. Old Man Xia pondered for a moment, "I don't want to let you ~ take care of this matter." But you ~ mother's business, we can't say anything. The fifth daughter-in-law is not our serious daughter-in-law. If she mixes with it, it will be even more chaotic. ”
"Almost. Xia Zhi saw that Old Man Xia commented on Sun Wang's family, so he told Old Man Xia what Xiao Shu'er heard about being small.
Xiao Shu'er didn't understand this, Xia Zhi guessed the meaning, but Old Man Xia understood it as soon as he heard it.
"It's not a stumbling one!" Old Man Xia was a little annoyed, "This is their Lao Tian family's business, so I shouldn't care about it." But if this thing is done by you~ Mother, our surname Xia's face will not look good. No, they can't be allowed to do this! Lao Tian's family is really promising, and if they have hands and feet, they can't live a decent life, so they have to go down this evil path!"
Old Man Xia's perception of the character of Old Man Tian's family has dropped to a low point.
"They also mentioned my sister. Xiao Shu'er was next to Xia Solstice, and he interjected at the right time. Although I still don't know how to be small or not, but Old Man Xia is so angry, it is definitely not a good thing. At this time, the summer solstice was mentioned, and Xiao Shu'er felt very bad, so he said it in a complaining tone.
"What, they still dare to fight the idea of sixteen!" Old Man Xia's eyes widened.
The little black fish was eating the freshly washed plums on the side, and immediately exploded when he heard this. "I'm looking for Tian Laidi!"
"Uncle, don't worry, listen to what my grandfather says. Xia Solstice hurriedly pulled the little black fish away. first wanted to marry her to Tian Dabao's stupid ~ son, but now she is being picked up by Sun Wang's family, do you want to give her to someone to repay the money again?
Not to mention whether Tian has the courage to do so now, if this matter is rumored out, her face will be even more ugly. She still remembered that when she was in Fucheng, Guo Yuhuan laughed at her about Tian Dabao.
Although it is not her fault at all, there are many boring and vicious people like Guo Yuhuan in this world.
So the meaning of the summer solstice is to quietly suppress things. It is better to nip such a thing in the bud.
"I asked Xiao Shu'er just now, it should be the fifth aunt of the Sun family who mentioned it. I guess even if my mother is tempted, she doesn't dare to agree now. ”
Old Man Xia thought about it, and felt that Xia Zhi's words made sense. Tian can now be said to be full of baggage, and she still has to take care of the eldest girl and the second girl, if she should know, if she hits the idea on Xia Zhi, it will definitely cause an uproar~ waves. At that time, let alone paying back the money with the summer solstice, she couldn't do the affairs of the eldest girl and the second girl.
"There is one more thing, the backer Tun'er should not expect my father and mother to come up with a large sum of silver now. My mother didn't need it. ”
Even if the girl of the Xia family is valuable, the eldest girl and the second girl can sell it for the same price. Comparing the risks of playing the summer solstice, Tian should not take risks.
"She'd better understand in her heart. Otherwise...... Hey. Old Man Xia snorted coldly, and then reassured Xia Zhi, "Sixteen, you can rest assured." As long as you still have a breath of air, you must not be allowed ~ my mother to hit you again. ”
Speaking of this, Old Man Xia sighed deeply. The Xia family has a granddaughter who is sold, and it is enough. At that time, he was still sloppy, he really didn't expect Tian to have such courage and such a ruthless heart. There are rich and poor people in Daxingzhuang, but there are really no children who sell their daughters.
And Da Yue'er, how smart a little girl she usually is, she is eight years old, her mother wants to sell her, why doesn't she know how to run, she doesn't know how to come to him to sue.
In the past, Old Man Xia felt angry and panicked when he thought about it.
"Sixteen, don't go anywhere with Tian Laidi in the future. Wherever you go, I'll go with you. The little black fish was pulled by Xia Zhi and couldn't go to Tian Laidi, he thought about it and discussed it with Xia Zhi.
This must have heard how Da Yue'er was sold, so I was worried that she would also be abducted by the Tian family, so I asked her to be careful and accompany her at all times.
"Okay, uncle, I'll listen to you. Xia Zhi was very ironed in his heart, and took the little black fish's hand and smiled for a while.
Xiao Shu'er immediately posted it too, saying that he also wanted to protect the summer solstice.
Old Man Xia watched a few children talking and laughing and being intimate on the kang, and he felt less depressed, and his mood slowly improved.
Xia Zhi arranged a task for Xiao Shu'er and asked him to go to the field to find Xia Qiao to come back. "Let my brother come to the backyard to eat. She originally planned to share some of the cockles and other food she bought back for Tian's, Daya and Erya, but now she doesn't want to.
Let Xia Qiao come and eat with them, let Tian take the two nieces to eat whatever they like, she also has a temper, okay.
Little Black Fish was very much in favor of this proposal, so she urged Xiao Shu'er to hurry up and find Xia Qiao. Xiao Shu'er agreed, put on a straw hat, and went to the field with a smoke.
Xia Zhi remembered the scallops he bought, and he couldn't put this one, so he had to eat it immediately. She came to the hall house in a hurry, and Layue had already bought tofu and came back, and she was peeling cockles with Mrs. Xia and Aunt Xia.
Seeing Xia Zhi coming over with her sleeves rolled up, Mrs. Xia still stopped her from working. She said that even if Xia Zhi doesn't play with the little black fish and doesn't talk to Old Man Xia, then she can still read books and write. In short, it is not allowed to work on the summer solstice.
Xia Zhi's grandson, the status in the backyard is quite high.
"Milk, I'll make this scallop. Xia Zhi smiled and discussed with Mrs. Xia, "I ate with my uncle once in Fucheng, and I saw that what others made was very delicious, so I will try it too." ”
"That's fine. When Mrs. Xia heard her say this, she immediately agreed, "Or I'm still thinking, how can we eat this, we haven't bought it before." ”
Knowing that Xia Solstice was going to make a new dish, the little black fish was so happy that he didn't go out to play, so he circled around Xia Solstice. Xia Zhi simply asked him to help brush the scallops, and then chopped the garlic and stir-fried it to create a fragrance, prepared all the seasonings, and asked Mrs. Xia for some vermicelli to soak.
Over there, Mrs. Xia peeled the cockles and handed them to Aunt Xia and Layue to cook, so she came over to help Xia Zhi. Mrs. Xia's cooking skills are also quite good, and as soon as Xia Zhi explained, she knew what to do with this garlic scallop.
Mrs. Xia prepared the steamer, put the scallops into the steamer on the summer solstice, put them in the pot and steam them for a while, and the aroma of garlic scallops came out.
The scallops are the freshest to buy, and they are cooked after steaming for a while. Xia Zhi counted the time, and almost as soon as the pot was opened, he lifted the pot and took out the scallops.
She bought a lot of scallops, steamed a large steamer, took out the largest plate in the house, and filled two plates, which still stacked the scallops together.
When the little black fish smelled the smell, he smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth. The garlic scallops he ate in the restaurant tasted like this.
At this time, Xia Qiao also came back with Xiao Shu'er. While urging a few children to wash their hands, Mrs. Xia took Aunt Xia to the table and brought all the meals.
There are not many types of dishes, but the amount is very real, and the color and flavor are complete. Old Man Xia sat on the kang, glanced at the table full of food, and asked for Mrs. Xia's opinion with a smile.
"I have food today, why don't you drink a cup?"
"If you want to drink, I can still stop you! Let the third child, Daqiao and Sixteen accompany you to have a drink. "Mrs. Xia knows Mr. Xia very well.
Old Man Xia laughed and said yes in a loud voice.
Everyone sat down at the table, and Aunt Xia San chose the position of the kang edge, so that it was convenient to take care of the big guy to eat. Old Man Xia, Aunt Xia and Xia Qiao all had small wine cups in front of them. Xia Solstice poured wine, and then at the request of the little black fish, he also gave him a small half cup.
At this time, the alcohol content is not too high, and there is no problem in drinking it on the summer solstice, and the little black fish is a child, and it is okay to drink a little once in a while.
And the scallops and cockles I ate today are also good for drinking a little wine.
This meal, everyone ate very happily. The cockles are very fresh, whether they are stewed with tofu or stir-fried leeks, they are very delicious. And the garlic scallops made on the summer solstice are even more popular, I heard that it is the dish of the restaurant in the city, everyone nodded, saying that it is no wonder that the dishes in the restaurant are so expensive, so delicious, of course, the price is expensive.
"Sixteen will do it once you eat it. "The little black fish eats small~ with an oily mouth, and I haven't forgotten to praise the summer solstice.
"This dish looks like a hassle, but it's actually quite easy to make. If it's complicated and difficult, I guess I won't be able to do it well. Xia Solstice was modest.
"Sixteen did everything well. "Little Black Fish doesn't like to listen to Xia Zhi being modest, he thinks that Xia Solstice is good at everything, and he can't listen to people, including Xia Zhi himself, say that he is not good.
Everyone laughs.
Because everyone said that the scallops were delicious, the summer solstice said that they would buy it next time. It's just that it is not difficult to use a few more processes, and the materials used are also ordinary, and they can eat them completely.
Mrs. Xia saw that her youngest son liked food so much, so she nodded after thinking about it. According to this way of eating, the little black fish is happy. But it was a lot of copper coins that were spent.
But the youngest son is happy, the big guy is also happy, the whole family is more harmonious, and even Daqing is fatter and stronger, oily and slippery. Mrs. Xia secretly decided in her heart that she wanted to embroider a few more delicate purses, and she couldn't always let Xia Zhi put money inside.
