Marriage is a consensual affair, not only for both men and women, but also for both families, and one is indispensable. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info This is the point of view that Mr. Xia insists. He asked Second Uncle Xia to dispel the idea of marrying May to Zhang Fang.

"If you are young, you have hands and feet, will you still worry about eating and drinking all your life?"

The meaning of these words seemed to be a little unclear, but Second Uncle Xia immediately understood. Old Man Xia saw that they were greedy for the wealth of the Zhang family, so he said this sentence to warn and persuade him.

Back in the east wing, Second Uncle Xia and May were waiting for Second Uncle Xia. Second Uncle Xia sat down on the kang heavily, and said what Old Man Xia meant.

"I can't listen to her. It's not good to listen to him. Didn't that Zhang Fang say that he was rare in May, not his cousin. It's such a good thing, why can't we think about it? Aunt Xia said immediately.

May didn't speak, but it was obvious that what Aunt Xia said was exactly what she meant.

"And I don't like to hear her grandfather's words. Why don't you worry about eating and drinking, and if you don't go hungry in May, it's okay? If it weren't for his grandfather's thoughts, he would have been able to suffer from that old age! Dare to love is a person of the next generation, he won't feel distressed!" Second Aunt Xia criticized Old Man Xia's thoughts again.

May and July both nodded beside them, feeling that what Aunt Xia said was too right.

"The old man is that kind of person, digging into the basket is the dish. As long as it's a man, that's fine. Second Uncle Xia also said.

The family actually made up their minds to continue to communicate with Zhang Fang in May, and they must trap Zhang Fang.

"Gotta sneak, don't let the old man know. Otherwise, the old man would be in a hurry, and he would find a mother-in-law for May, and I wouldn't be able to hold back. Second Uncle Xia said.

"That's for sure. Aunt Xia nodded.

"I told Zhang Fang to let him come freely. Second Uncle Xia smiled and said such a thing with a thief again. It turned out that when he was in Xin'an Town, he expected Old Man Xia's reaction and responded to it.

Aunt Xia was very happy, and she was much more reserved in May, she pursed her lips, and her expression seemed to be very satisfied.

"Erzhu, you should be more clever in the future, go out and wander more, and see you Brother Zhang Fang, so that I can come back and give you a letter to your sister. Second Uncle Xia instructed Xia Zhu.

"Sister, do you have any benefits for me?" Xia Zhu smiled and stretched out his hand to May.

May raised her hand and slapped Xia Zhu's hand down: "Slap you two!" With that, May burst out laughing. "You're smart, can you lose your benefits in the future?"

In the blink of an eye, it is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

Early in the morning, the cold north wind is full of the atmosphere of the New Year.

Although the reunion dinner was eaten in the backyard, it was a big year, and Xia Xiucai was at home again, so Tian also wanted to eat some food. However, she has no money in her hand now, and she has something in her heart, so she gets up early in the morning and talks to Xia Zhi in a weird way.

“…… If you don't have anything to eat during the New Year, don't look for me, our family is headed by my aunt and grandmother. Summer solstice, my mother has the audacity to ask you, what are you going to cook for the big guy for the New Year?"

Xia Xiucai wiped his face beside him, and said Tian's words: "Why are you talking to the child like this." ”

"If I don't talk to her like that, how should I talk to her?" Tian immediately set up his eyes, "Or I'll give her a kowtow before talking to her." ”

"You!" Xia Xiucai couldn't, so he dodged away.

Tian snorted coldly.

Xia Zhi picked up and came out of the Westinghouse, and she didn't care about Tian's attitude and tone at all. "Let's fry some meatballs for the New Year. ”

When the words landed, the little tree cheered. "Sister, what are we all frying? I want to eat fried sweet potatoes, and I also want to eat fried dates. ”

"It's all fried, it's all fried. Xia Zhi smiled and nodded.

At this time, I heard the voice of the little black fish shouting outside the back door. Xiao Shu'er didn't need to be ordered, so he hurriedly opened the door and invited the little black fish in.

The little black fish held a small basin in his hand, and in the basin were three square, fresh and tender, and steaming tofu.

"Sixteen, for you. Just bought it back, didn't you say you wanted croquettes?" the little black fish handed the tofu to Xia Zhi.

The little black fish hurriedly took it: "Uncle, just let me get it." You see you came early in the morning to deliver it, this is cold. "Very flattering.

The little black fish glanced at Xiao Shu'er: "You take it well, and if you scatter it, it will be gone." ”

It's the Chinese New Year, and the tofu shop is also closed. Because every household wants tofu for croquettes during the Chinese New Year, they made some at the request of the villagers, and they were sold out early in the morning.

Xiao Shu'er agreed with a sigh, holding a basin in both hands and bringing the tofu into the house.

"Uncle, who went to buy the tofu?" Xia Zhi asked the little black fish.

"You~ Ye went. He got up early. The little black fish agreed loudly, and then pulled Xia Solstice to let her go to the backyard to eat. Tian had already lifted the lid of the pot and picked out the dumplings from the pot. She didn't bring the summer solstice when she made breakfast.

"Dad, mother, I'll go to the backyard first, and I'll come back in a while for our croquettes." Xia Zhi still responded to Xia Xiucai and the Tian family.

"Go ahead. Xia Xiucai said with a smile, and then he said politely to the little black fish, "Otherwise, Xiaolong will eat here." ”

"Nope. The little black fish quickly glanced into the cauldron and pulled the summer solstice away.

When the little black fish went away, Tian dared to complain to Xia Xiucai: "You keep people, people can eat with us." What we eat, what people eat. I'll follow you to eat bran vegetables, which are fragrant and spicy. ”

Xia Xiucai smiled good-naturedly and didn't say anything. Tian's voice was not in his ears, and he also felt that Tian was just talking in vain, and there was no meaning in talking happily.

Xia Zhi and the little black fish came to the backyard, and as soon as she entered the gate, she found that today seemed to be a little different from usual.

The yard seems to be cleaner.

This must be said that Old Man Xia personally cleaned it up.

met Second Uncle Xia head-on, and Second Aunt Xia greeted Xia Zhi and Little Black Fish with a smile. Second Aunt Xia came out of the east wing and greeted the two of them lazily.

Xia Zhi glanced into the east wing, and wondered slightly. Second Uncle Xia's family is in a good mood today. Old Man Xia let them die and marry Zhang Fang, they should have been depressed and unhappy?

There's a problem here!

In the upper room, Mrs. Xia's hair was combed and smooth. When she saw Xia Solstice and Little Black Fish enter the courtyard, she began to put the table and set the dishes and chopsticks. When the two of them entered the house, they happened to eat on the kang.

Today, Mrs. Xia prepared breakfast with japonica rice porridge, mixed tofu, bad fish and a small pot of fried dumplings. The dumplings were wrapped last night, and they were not eaten after steaming, so they smeared some soybean oil in the pot in the morning, and the fried skin was slightly yellow, which was another taste from yesterday's steamed dumplings.

Dumplings are a good thing, so Mrs. Xia has always let Xia Zhi eat dumplings.

"Milk, I'll just drink porridge. "Xia Zhi only ate one dumpling and drank a bowl of porridge.

The little black fish didn't eat much.

"It's a cheer for the New Year. Mrs. Xia smiled and cleaned up the table, and did not force Xia Zhi and the little black fish to eat more. There will be a lot of delicious food for a while, and the two children should also save some stomachs.

As soon as the cleaning was over, Aunt Xia and Aunt Xia came with the children. Aunt Xia said that she also wanted to fry some meatballs. She has Layue and Xiao Xialin at home, and then her niece Chen Xing'er is also here, so she must fry some more balls and eat them slowly in the first month.

"I'm not going to blow it up. Mother, you can fry more and you will have everything. Aunt Xia said, "We can't compare with the third family." ”

Mrs. Xia smiled good-naturedly, and Aunt Xia didn't quarrel with Aunt Xia. Layue and Chen Xing'er were not happy. The two little girls turned their heads and quietly discussed, saying that Aunt Xia didn't take advantage of it enough.

The voices of the two little girls were not too high, but they were not too low either. Aunt Xia must have heard it, but she was thick-skinned and pretended not to hear.

"You guys pack up after yourselves, and I'll call you when you're going to work." Mrs. Xia said.

Aunt Xia and Aunt Xia both left.

"My second uncle and second aunt are very happy today. Yesterday, my father told them not to think about the Zhang family, and I thought they would have to be sad. Xia Solstice just said.

"It's the New Year. Old Lady Xia smiled.

Old Man Xia glanced at Xia Zhi, and then his eyes turned to the direction of the east wing, obviously thinking about something.

With Old Man Xia's understanding of Second Uncle Xia, what else could he not think of.

Xia Zhi smiled and discussed with Mrs. Xia: "Milk, give me some dates, I'll go back to bubbles." The little tree wants to eat fried dates. ”

Mrs. Xia went to get dates: "Sixteen, if you want to blow up something, just blow it up in the backyard, and it will save trouble." ”

"No, it's the New Year, and you have to fire in the front yard. I want to fry more croquettes, and send some to my second aunt's house when the time comes, as well as my sister Lanzi, she can't eat her croquettes. ”

Mrs. Xia didn't say anything, she took the basket containing the dates and picked a small pot for Xia Zhi. It happened that Xiao Xialin came over, and Xia Zhi asked Xiao Xialin to send the jujube to the front yard for her.

"Tell your aunt, soak this date first. Xia Zhi also instructed Xiao Xia Lin.

Xiao Xia Lin agreed milkily, and then left with the basin.

"What Xiao Linzi is doing is to be happy. Xia Zhi praised Xiao Xia Lin in front of Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia.

Old Man Xia smiled: "It must not be a lazy person." Xia Lin is working happily like his father. ”

Old Mrs. Xia also nodded: "That's right." Then, she discussed with Xia Zhi what to bomb.

There are a lot of things to be fried in this New Year, vegetarian meatballs, meatballs, fried sweet potatoes, fried dates are the most common, and there are many tricks, depending on the housewives themselves.

Xia Zhi saw that there were still two packets of trough cakes on the counter, and he didn't see Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia eat them for a few days. She suggested that the trough cake should be fried.

The trough cake is cut into small pieces and fried in bread, which is sweet and crispy.

"Good. As soon as the little black fish heard that there was something new to eat, they applauded loudly.

Ordinary people's trough cakes must not be fried, and it is good for children to eat a piece of trough cake. But now the Xia family is no longer an ordinary villager's family, and Mrs. Xia is also accustomed to children, so she immediately nodded and agreed.

"Still sixteen will think. Mrs. Xia smiled.

In terms of eating, she is still quite creative, which Xia Solstice also admits.

After the discussion was completed, Mrs. Xia called Aunt Xia and Aunt Xia San. They first prepared croquettes to use things, beating eggs, mixing noodles, crushing tofu, and soaking dates...... The whole family was busy.

Old Man Xia couldn't intervene in these words. He had already come down from the kang and walked to the courtyard just in time to meet Second Uncle Xia. Old Man Xia called Second Uncle Xia aside to talk.

Xia Zhi didn't come forward, but looking at the expressions of Old Man Xia and Second Uncle Xia, he knew that Old Man Xia must be beating Second Uncle Xia again.

Xia Zhi helped out in the backyard for a while before returning to the front yard.

She didn't work here, the dates were already soaked, and the noodles of the croquettes were all reconciled. One pot is filled with tofu and crushed vermicelli, and the other is noodles made with eggs, and then they are fried with soaked and pitted dates.

"Dad, mother, don't you go to the backyard to have a look?" Xia Zhi looked at it once, and his heart was satisfied. In any case, Tian is still a capable person, and she does all these jobs very well.

"Here it goes. Xia Xiucai said.

At noon, everyone had to join the New Year, Xia Xiucai had to go over to talk to Old Man Xia, and Tian also had to help Zhang Luo with the New Year's dinner.

The couple went to the front yard one after the other.

Sun Lan'er walked over from next door.

"Sixteen, do you want croquettes?" Sun Lan'er asked Xia Solstice with a smile.

"Hmm. Xia Zhi nodded, "Sister Lanzi, don't you have croquettes?"

"I said it was fried, and I just had a bowl of noodles, so let me come and ask if you have any dates. Sun Lan'er was a little embarrassed.

"Yes, it's all soaked, you can take it yourself after a while. "The summer solstice said. Add dates to the batter, without adding sugar and other seasonings, and it will be fragrant and sweet when fried.

"Good. Sun Lan'er told Xia Zhi again, "My family has nothing to do, sixteen, what are you going to do, I'll help you light the fire in a while." ”

"It's croquettes, and we'll go to my grandfather and my grandmother in the backyard for lunch. Xia Zhi didn't say politely to Sun Lan'er, "Sister Lanzi, you can come over and help me with croquettes later." It's over, I have to send some to my second aunt's house, and then some to yours. ”

"No, no. Sun Lan'er waved her hand in a hurry, "You don't have to give it to them, it's just like that after giving them food." ”

"That's definitely not the same. Xia Zhi smiled, Sun Lan'er can often bring back some delicious food from the Xia family, and Sun Wang's family can count on it, and his attitude towards Sun Lan'er will be better. "Sister Lanzi, don't be careful. As you know, my family is not at this point now. ”

"Hmm. Sun Lan'er thought about it, and nodded heavily, "You don't have to touch your hands for a while, the saved oil will pop out and splash your hands again." ”

said that she was going to help Xia Solstice croquettes, Sun Lan'er first looked at the reconciled noodles, she stirred the batter more evenly, and then tasted the taste.

"My aunt made it quite tasteful. Sun Lan'er said with a smile.
