Chapter 195: Many Hearts
It turned out that the little black fish took advantage of this time to run to catch fish. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Xia Zhi bent down slightly to look at the fish that the little black fish was holding in his hand. It was a big carp, looking like it was in its early three pounds, and it was still flicking its tail from time to time.
Such a fish can be caught by a small black fish at will. It is rare for other children in Daxingzhuang to have such good means and good luck.
"Oh, it's still alive!" Sun Lan'er cried out in surprise. Almost the whole afternoon was in the backyard of the Xia family, with Xia Zhi and Layue, Old Man Xia, Old Lady Xia, and Aunt Xia and others were very good to her.
When did Sun Lan'er have such a comfortable day at home when she was loved and valued. So she is very happy, and this will also show a rare liveliness.
"Hurry up and take it to the house, put it in a pot and raise it. Xia Solstice said, "Let's eat dumplings at night, this fish will not be eaten tomorrow at the earliest." ā
"Okay. The little black fish happily agreed, and then looked at the little tree and Xiao Xia Lin beside him. He caught the fish, and he hadn't let his two nephews touch it. However, the summer solstice let me quickly raise the fish into the pot.
The little black fish glanced at Xiao Shu'er, and handed over the fish in his hand like a big brother in the club who awarded honors. "Little Shu'er, you run back and let your milk raise the fish first. ā
It's not that the little black fish prefers the little tree, it's really another choice, Xia Lin is too small, and the chubby little short legs are tight, and he can't run fast. The little tree is different, those with long hands and long feet, they may not be able to do anything else, but they can run fast.
Xiao Shu'er was flattered and took the big carp: "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task." Then he ran to the backyard.
Xia Lin hesitated for a moment between chasing the fish and following the little black fish, and finally followed the little black fish.
At this time, the sun had already set on the mountain, and the colorful glow dyed the sky red. The sunlight that fell on the heads and shoulders of the children softened even more, and seemed to cast a golden-red halo over the silhouettes of the children.
They laughed as they walked, and the cheerfully jumping shadows stretched long behind them.
As soon as they arrived home on the summer solstice, they washed their hands at the urging of Mrs. Xia, and Layue also brought back Old Man Xia and Third Uncle Xia. Old Man Xia and Uncle Xia washed their hands and faces at the well. Old Man Xia was more reserved and didn't say anything. Uncle Xia San couldn't bear it so much.
"This year's wheat looks like it's going to be a bumper harvest!" said Uncle Xia with joy. The main source of income for the family of three is the wheat on the ten acres of land. The wheat harvest was good, and of course Uncle Xia couldn't help but be happy.
"It depends on the end. "Old Man Xia is calmer than Third Uncle Xia, and he feels that the grain has not been moved to the house, and it is too early to say whether there is a bumper harvest or not. "When the time comes, it will depend on whether God will be gracious or not. ā
"Dad, let's keep an eye on it. ā
"That's for sure. You can't let the food you get run away. Old Man Xia nodded.
Mrs. Xia beckoned the big guy to dinner in the house.
For these people, two tables were placed. The tables are side by side, and there are no separate tables. Tian and Aunt Xia brought a pot of steaming dumplings to the table, and picked up the largest deep plate respectively. Xia Zhi, Layue and Sun Lan'er helped Mrs. Xia bring soup to the house, a dipping plate, and two small cold dishes.
It turned out that after Mrs. Xia steamed the dumplings, she took her two daughters-in-law to make another melon slice egg soup, and then fried a peanut rice and mixed it with cold three threads.
Uncle Xia San smiled: "It's like a festival." "I'm very happy, too.
There are dumplings and vegetables, and Old Man Xia naturally wants to drink a cup. As usual, a wine cup was also placed in front of the summer solstice. When Tian saw it, his heart moved, and he couldn't help but look at Xia Solstice in wonder, and then looked at Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia.
She hadn't seen anyone lift up a granddaughter in such a way. Although she knew that Xia Zhi now had a very high status in the backyard, she didn't expect that Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia would stay at Xia Solstice to this extent.
That's a ...... For a while, Tian's heart was mixed, and she couldn't tell what it was like.
Xia Zhi didn't seem to see Tian's strange eyes, she naturally poured wine for Old Man Xia and Third Uncle Xia, and then asked Old Lady Xia to do so. Mrs. Xia said that she would not drink it, and asked Xia Zhi to pour wine for Tian's.
"Aren't you~ mother able to drink a few cups. ā
"I don't drink. I can't get used to that spicy soup. Tian waved his hand and said.
"Mother, then if you don't drink it, I won't pour it for you. Xia Zhi smiled, poured himself a full cup, and then saw the little black fish looking at her with deep eyes.
Xia Zhi smiled and poured a small half cup of wine for the little black fish.
Everyone drinks wine, eats vegetables and eats dumplings. Old Man Xia's habit, no matter how good the meal is, he always takes a sip of wine first. With wine, there are very few meals to eat.
He also took a sip of wine today, and then picked up the dumplings that Mrs. Xia picked up from his bowl and took a bite.
"Hmm......" Old Man Xia tasted the dumplings and nodded and said okay. For the first time at home, beans were used for stuffing, and everyone was relatively novel, but they, like Mr. Xia, knew that they knew it after taking a bite, and they all said it was delicious.
"In the future, we will make this bean filling twice, it is delicious. "Third Uncle Xia is very happy today, and he talks a little more than usual.
"Then you don't see how much oil or meat is put in. Aunt Xia said casually.
Uncle Xia San smiled embarrassedly.
"The third uncle loves to eat, let's pack a few more times in the future. Uncle, do you like to eat?" Xia Zhi asked while picking dumplings for the little black fish.
"It's delicious, Sixteen, don't worry about giving me dumplings, you can eat them too." The little black fish also picked dumplings into the bowl of the summer solstice.
"See, they can't suffer anywhere. Old Man Xia looked at the harmony between his youngest son and his little granddaughter, and said with a smile.
Several members of the Xia family ate very comfortably, but Sun Lan'er couldn't let go. However, Xia Zhi deliberately arranged Sun Lan'er to be by her side, so she would naturally pick dumplings and vegetables for her.
The eldest girl and the second girl were also very restrained, and both of them sat next to Tian. Of course, they also saw it, although the people of the Xia family were very polite and kind to them, everyone seemed to be coaxing the Tian family.
But Tian's status in the Xia family's backyard is not high, and it is quite embarrassing.
Tian was already like this, and the two of them were even more cautious, and they didn't dare to stretch out their chopsticks at the dinner table. It's still Mrs. Xia who is soft-hearted, and she can't see the little girl like this, so she takes care of the two of them.
When he was halfway through the meal, Mr. Xia said to Mrs. Xia, "I'll pick up a few dumplings for his aunt's grandmother." When Lanzi goes back, you also bring her a bowl so that her two little brothers can also taste today's dumplings. ā
"Hey. Mrs. Xia happily agreed.
Because people rarely make white-flour dumplings, when people close to them make dumplings, they often give each other some for each other to taste. Old Man Xia and Mrs. Xia usually make dumplings and give them to Mrs. Wu. Of course, if Mrs. Wu made dumplings over there, she would also give them them.
As for Sun Lan'er's side, Old Man Xia is an elder, and he is not close to the Sun family, so he did not give dumplings as a courtesy. Old Man Xia arranged this arrangement for the sake of Sun Lan'er.
Sun Lan'er's situation in the Sun family, even if the people in Daxingzhuang don't say it, they are very clear in their hearts. Sun Wang's words are well-known and beautiful outside, but he is a mean person who treats Sun Lan'er. Today, Sun Lan'er came to eat white-flour dumplings, and after she goes back, she will definitely be found fault by Sun Wang's family.
If Sun Lan'er brought back some dumplings, it would be difficult for Sun Wang's family to find trouble with Sun Lan'er.
This is the carefulness and thoughtfulness of Old Man Xia.
In fact, Mr. Xia has always been known for his thoughtfulness in Daxingzhuang.
Sun Lan'er's gratitude goes without saying.
After eating, there were too many people rushing to work, and Mrs. Xia only had to watch from the side, and just give an order for something. Watching a group of children and grandchildren come and go to work, all of them are quite capable, Old Man Xia sat on the kang and his eyes narrowed with a smile.
Mrs. Xia filled a bowl of dumplings and asked Xia Zhi and the little black fish to send them to Mrs. Wu. When the summer solstice and the little black fish returned, the bowl was filled with freshly boiled peanuts.
"My aunt gave it to me, saying it was peanuts that had just come down. Xia Zhi handed the bowl to Mrs. Xia.
The old martial arts family is a big family in Daxingzhuang, and the old lady Wu has a high seniority, and her two sons are also successful. Not only does she have a good life at home, but she can also often receive filial piety from her younger generations.
It is not yet the season when the peanuts are fully ripe, and the peanuts at this time are very tender and sweet, and they are the most delicious when they are boiled with some salt. In the restaurants in Linshui Town and Fucheng, there is this appetizer, and the price is not cheap.
This is the exchange of courtesies between the neighbors of the Zhuang family.
Tian took the eldest girl and the second girl to help work in the hall, mainly the eldest girl and the second girl did it, and Tian was just acting like it most of the time. She still has a pimple in her heart, and she always holds it in front of Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia in the backyard, and she is unwilling to work hard.
However, Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia didn't care about it.
What this daughter-in-law is like, they already know. In some things, he tolerated her and coaxed her, for the sake of the integrity and harmony of the whole family.
After everything was packed up, Tian took the eldest girl and the second girl back. Sun Lan'er also brought a bowl of dumplings back to her house.
Xia Solstice and Little Black Fish, Little Shuer, Layue, and Xia Lin stood by the well platform, watching the big carp that was raised in a big wooden basin and swimming. Daqing also squeezed in, and stretched out a front paw, tentatively trying to pick up the carp in the pot.
The little black fish slapped Daqing's head against Daqing's head and pushed Daqing aside. "Daqing, don't scratch it. As soon as you catch it, the fish will die, and it won't be fresh when we eat it. ā
Mrs. Xia meant that everyone had eaten too heartily and greasy in the past two days. Let's keep this fish for a few days before eating it.
Therefore, the little black fish was afraid that Daqing would be greedy for fun and killed the big carp.
In the upper house, there are only Old Man Xia and Old Mrs. Xia.
This season, many people go outside after dinner to cool off. However, Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia don't often do this. The house they live in is very well built, warm in winter and cool in summer. In the summer, all the windows are left open, and there is always a cool breeze blowing into the house from time to time, so it is not too stuffy.
Old Man Xia instructed Mrs. Xia like this. āā¦ā¦ You look at the void, talk to Sixteen, and let Sixteen have some heart. ā
"Why don't you tell Sixteen?" Old Lady Xia glanced at Old Man Xia. This is a bit unusual, usually Mrs. Xia is obedient to Old Man Xia.
Old Man Xia coughed dryly twice: "How can I speak." You're a milkman, and you'll be fine if you say that. ā
"Little girl of sixteen, you let me tell her this. I don't have this face, I can't open this mouth. Mrs. Xia said.
Old Man Xia was very dissatisfied, so he said to Old Mrs. Xia, one sentence to me, and said in a low voice.
In the end, Mrs. Xia didn't agree. "No matter what you say, she is the mother of the bridge. When it comes to studying, she's already sorry for the bridge. There is only such a big thing left in Daqiao's life, and she can't be ruthless to that point!"
"Then who dares to pack a ticket. For the sake of her mother's family, she can't do anything. She was confused for a while, and my eldest grandson would have to suffer a lifetime of suffering and sin for a lifetime. ā
Even if Old Man Xia said so, Old Lady Xia couldn't erase it and told Xia Zhi that she should be careful to guard against the eldest girl and the second girl, especially the eldest girl. The eldest girl can't find a suitable in-law, and if she relies on the bridge at that time, it will be miserable.
Not to mention that the Xia family can't marry such a family again, if Xia Qiao marries a big girl, then this life will be completely ruined.
Mrs. Xia felt that Xia Zhi was only twelve years old, and she couldn't use such a thing to dirty Xia Zhi's ears.
"I can't let Sixteen do everything, how old she is, and now she is like this, and she is forced by her mother. That kid hurts and pity. ā
Mrs. Xia said this, and Old Man Xia pondered for a while, and he didn't say anything.
"It's hard for sixteen, but if you don't do this, what else can you do? The boss can't stand up at home, and the eldest daughter-in-law can't listen to anything. ā
"Otherwise, you can talk to Ohashi thoroughly. The bridge is also fourteen, and there are some things that he should understand. Mrs. Xia suggested to Mr. Xia that she would protect Xia Zhi more in her selfish heart.
Old Man Xia also felt that it was very difficult to say such words, but there was no way, and in the end, he could only do it. "Hey, I'm trying to talk to Ohashi. ā
Mrs. Xia said that it should be like this, and finally put her mind at ease.
Xia Zhi was playing outside, not knowing that Mrs. Xia had helped her avoid a rather embarrassing task.
Tian has been bringing the eldest and second girls to Daxingzhuang for a while, and has used various channels and methods to release the news. The second girl is still young, after all, she is still young, but the eldest girl is not interested.
Tian became more and more anxious, and finally she saw that she couldn't count on anything else, so she pressed the last treasure on her body. Sun Wang's family really wanted to help talk about the big girl, but on the one hand, she found two rich people, and people secretly saw that the big girl didn't match, on the other hand, her month is older, and her body is getting heavier and heavier, so it is a little difficult to go out and walk around often.
And the long-awaited wheat harvest season has finally arrived. (To be continued.) )
