Qiao Lan nodded and responded: "Don't worry, I have said everything in the letter that is not easy to say, I have heard it in my heart, especially since I deliberately mentioned the matter of the child several times, as a mother, it is strong, not for yourself, but also for the child."

"Well, that's right." Xiangye nodded appreciatively.

That's all for this, Xiang Ye is an emotionally introverted person, and he won't show anything easily, and he can leak a point or two of emotions because of the relationship between relatives.

In the past few days, Qiao Lan has been at home to help her mother prepare dried vegetables, and the weather is hot, and Li's mother is going to start making pickles one after another, and the sour bamboo shoots will start to be made in April, otherwise the bamboo shoots will be gone.

Even the old lady in the family is helping, and the little baa is making fun.

Li Yu came, and when he saw that the room was lively, he couldn't help but smile, "Grandma, auntie, what are you doing?" ”

"Brother Yu is here, come in and sit, pour tea, I won't let you sit on my dirty hands." Mother Li smiled and beckoned to him.

"We are making sour bamboo shoots, and we must hurry up at this time, otherwise the bamboo shoots will be gone." Qiao Lan smiled.

"Oh, can I help?" Li Yu looked very strange, and immediately took off his robe and took the initiative to change into the clothes that were placed on the platform to work.

"No, you'll get it, this knife is hurting your hand." Qiao Lan smiled and refused.

"I think I'm sure I'll be quicker than you do." Li Yu felt that he was being underestimated, and he was aggrieved.

"Well, well, you can see that it's like me, you can't cut it too thin, and the meat will be gone."

"yes, I see. Is this sour bamboo shoot the sour dish I ate, it's delicious, auntie, you can leave a little for me when you're ready, I like to eat that, stew ham and chicken soup, put some sour bamboo shoots, not to mention more rice. Li Yu smashed this mouth, as if he really liked it.

"You like it. Some people don't like the taste of this sour non-pulling. Qiao Lan couldn't help but laugh.

"Well, I really like my aunt's side dishes, every time you send them to the capital, my father and I eat them, and my mother is reluctant to eat them and leave them for our father and son." Li Yu said and laughed while working, and sat on the small board with everyone, cutting bamboo shoots.

In fact, it is not a precious thing, but it is just an appetite, because the distance is long, and it is impossible to bring too much, so they picked up a few dishes they said they liked and sent them over, plus a little souvenir and wine.

"You really like it, that dare to be good, go back and take what you like at home, I will leave some food for myself at home every year, there are a lot of things, some of them are sold, even if they are sold out, I am gradually getting older, they don't let me work hard, and they don't give me enough to sell, you can come if you want to eat, we are all our own people." Mother Li smiled at Li Yu with a smile.

"Okay, what a good craft, you don't have an apprentice, Aunt Lanzi, you will definitely be." Li Yu looked at Qiao Lan expectantly.

"Ah, I, I won't." Qiao Lan froze for a moment, paused, shrugged her shoulders and shook her head decisively.

"Then you won't want to eat in the future, won't we be able to eat it, and I won't be able to work hard." Li Yubian had a pitiful expression.

"It's okay, stupid child, my nephew and daughter-in-law can do it, and they have been following me to learn this craft, he is the one who opened a braised meat shop in the county, Xiao Lingzi, she can do it, and she is almost the same as me." You can eat it if you want to eat it in the future. "Mother Li is a very hospitable person.

Qiao Lan glanced at Li Yu, and said in her heart that this Brother Yu is indeed smart, and he digs holes for people every minute.

Turning his head and smiling at his mother: "Mother, people make you happy, but he doesn't like it, and besides, pickles can't be eaten." ”

"No, I really like to eat. Auntie, you believe me. Li Yu immediately expressed his loyalty.

"Well, my aunt believes in you, come if you want to eat, my aunt has enough, and there are delicious drinks at home, so you can come whatever you like." It's like your own home. After speaking, he turned his head to train Qiaolan, "You kid, a broken pickle is still a treasure, which makes people look at you stingy." Mother Li angrily gouged out her daughter's eyes.

Qiao Lan glared at Li Yu sadly, fooling my mother, you are not a good person.

Li Yu squinted and smiled, "Thank you, auntie, or auntie hurts me, auntie, can I eat at home at noon?" I also want to eat fish pot stickers. “

"Okay, there is fresh fish at noon, and the loaches they gave me, I will cook a dish for you to eat, and you have to drink your aunt's plum wine, it is delicious to boil." Mother Li likes Li Yu, so she takes out all the good things at home for him to eat.

Qiao Lan suddenly frowned, "Mother, men don't drink green plum wine, he and pear blossoms are white." "I had dinner with Li and saw him drink this wine.

"I like to drink, it's grandpa's own brew, grandpa's wine is the best, thank you, auntie, let's have a drink at noon." Li Yu spent a small amount of time coaxing the old man, which was a slippery method.

"Okay." Mother Li turned her head and glared at Qiaolan, "Shut up, don't interject, hurry up and get to work." ”

Qiao Lan pouted and was so aggrieved, I picked it up, is that green plum wine my good, I didn't want to drink it, he didn't drink this wine, he didn't drink it, he had to rob me, he was not a good person.

Xiangye and the old lady looked so happy, squinting and smiling.

In the end, Li Yu is very long, he has been sitting and helping to work, it is really much faster, he didn't cut very well at the beginning, but he has a high learning ability, and he quickly did a good job, really better than Qiaolan, and Li's mother reprimanded her a few words.

Li Yu had lunch at Li's house at noon, and ate his favorite fish pot sticker cakes, as well as loaches.

When he left, the enthusiastic Mother Li also packed him with side dishes and wine, and Brother Yu returned with a full load.

The old lady watched Qiao Lan look at her green plum wine and walked farther and farther, her eyes were complaining, and she couldn't help laughing, "I told you not to tease Brother Yu, he is bad." ”

"Grandma, will he not give him food next time?" Qiao Lan sat there coquettishly with the old lady.

"Okay, if you can't starve him anyway, then don't give him food." The old lady fondly touched Qiaolan's big braids.

"Oh yes, Brother Yu told me just now, saying that Chuanhu will come back with people this month, and there is already a new appointment, send them to Yangzhou, Jiangnan, one to the prefect of Yangzhou, and the other to join the army. They're going to hand over. The old lady smiled and told her good news.

"Ah, my brother Huzi is coming back, how does he know." Qiao Lan was pleasantly surprised.

"Are you stupid or not, he is an official from the capital, and he must have told you the exact news." The old lady smiled and patted her on the head.

"Hey, I can go to Jiangnan to have a look, what do you need, I'll buy it for you." Qiao Lan was excited, of course, the main reason was that Chuanhu was coming back, and her heart finally landed.

"There are a lot of good things in Jiangnan, you look at buying some of your daughter's dowry and come back, such as old-crafted fabrics, or pearls and gemstones, Xiuya and Baa need to use them." The old lady pondered for a moment and was no longer polite to her.

"Yes, I also said before that I would let Gangzi choose some good wood and come back, and buy a few if I can, and use them as dowries for the two children, this time, I'll go." Qiao Lan suddenly smiled happily.
