"Eh, baby daddy, why did you say that little apricot is in the Shen family? Is she just staying at the Shen family for the New Year?" As soon as she entered the room, Sister-in-law Xie asked Xie Xiaodan. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You ladies are just gossipy, where are people spending the New Year, what's your business!"
Xie Xiaodan was already very sleepy, and replied to his daughter-in-law angrily, and without stopping, he went directly into the room on the left, and went to sleep on the kang.
"Eh, you dead ghost talking to you, what are you running!" Aunt Xie turned around and saw that her husband had gone back to sleep and scolded a little deflated.
She took out the piece of meat that Li Yunbao brought back in the basket, and said to herself with a smile, "Such a big piece of meat is just what I can bring when I go back to my parents' house tomorrow to keep my face." ”
"Mother, mother, this is for you." As soon as Dongshan entered the door, he called out to Sister-in-law Xie, walked up to Sister-in-law Xie in a few steps, and handed the red envelope in his hand to his mother.
"Dongshan, where did you come from?" Sister-in-law Xie took the red envelope handed by her son and asked her eldest son suspiciously.
"Aunt Bao gave it to us when we left the yard." Higashiyama replied honestly.
"Oh, how can you two stinky boys still take other people's red envelopes, your mother and I have not prepared these red envelopes. We have so many children, if everyone comes to the door and gives money, then it will be repaid!" Sister-in-law Xie is a little anxious, her own eldest child looks steady on weekdays, how can he do this today.
Dongshan saw that his mother was a little angry and hurriedly explained, "Mother, I didn't want it originally, but Aunt Bao was very angry when she saw that I didn't want it, just like when you were angry and wanted to beat your father, I ...... I'll just ......"
"That's right, mother, we don't want Aunt Bao to be angry, we just took it." Beishan hurriedly opened his mouth to help his brother.
"Stinky boy, my mother doesn't know you yet, your little ass is warped, and I know what shit you're going to poop on, old lady! Hurry up, hand over your red envelope too. "It's okay that Beishan didn't open his mouth, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his sister-in-law stepped forward and grabbed his ear and asked for a red envelope.
Beishan was aggrieved, reluctant, hesitant, and swallowed slowly, took out the red envelope from the placket on his chest and handed it to Sister-in-law Xie, Sister-in-law Xie reached out to pick it up, Beishan's little hand was still holding the other end of the red envelope, and discussed with his mother in a begging tone.
"Mother, I finally received a red envelope, you will give me two pennies, I really can't give a penny to let me have a good time, I used to go to my grandmother's house The red envelopes given by my grandfather and grandmother were confiscated by you, and I didn't see my hair."
"You stinky boy, do you think you received a red envelope from someone else, and I don't want to return the gift to your wife, hurry up and let me go!" Sister-in-law Xie ignored Beishan's request and ruthlessly suppressed him.
Sister-in-law Xie felt that the weight of the two red envelopes was not light when she took them in her hand, so she hurriedly opened them and counted them.
"Wa Dad, Wa Dad, take a look......" Sister-in-law Xie hurriedly ran into the house with a red envelope, and shouted Xie Xiaodan in her mouth.
"You old lady is talking about it, and you won't let me sleep!" Xie Xiaodan grumbled.
"Sleep fart, get up for the old lady, look at it, why does this treasure girl give so much money to our children, this is too loser."
Xie Xiaodan's head poked out of the quilt and looked at the money in his wife's hand, "It's a lot, but don't you like money, why is there too much?" He was afraid of his old lady, he didn't dare to speak up, but he muttered unconsciously.
"No, it's too much of a loser, I have to take it back and give it back to her." Sister-in-law Xie put the money back and wanted to leave.
Xie Xiaodan grabbed his daughter-in-law's arm, "You person, you say that the wind is the rain, what do people think of us when you return it untouched?" People are kind enough to give you the baby's New Year's money, why do you still look down on it?"
Sister-in-law Xie patted her head, "Oh, I'm really in a hurry, that's okay, when I come back from my mother's house, I'll give Brother An a big red envelope, and add a few pennies when the time comes." Sister-in-law Xie patted her head and said with a smile.
The corners of Xie Xiaodan's mouth twitched, thinking to himself, this old lady!
"I'm going to sleep, you're busy with your business." After speaking, the person lay down, pulled the quilt over his head, and ignored his sister-in-law again.
Li Yunbao didn't know what happened to the red envelopes she gave to the two children, and she was busy preparing to make some nourishing soup for Shen Xingnan.
Xing'er and Brother An helped look at Shen Xingnan's medicine jar, while Li Yunbao walked to the courtyard, picked up the snowdrift and took out the frozen ribs buried in it, carried them home and put them in the basin to thaw, and secretly took out some tonic herbs from the space that they had collected in the capital before, and prepared to make up for Shen Xingnan's stewed lighter medicinal pork rib soup.
At noon, Li Yunbao thought that Shen Xingnan and Hou Hai would definitely not need to have lunch if they fell asleep, so she and Xing'er and Brother An would simply eat something.
Li Yunbao unloaded the two thighs of the chicken, added six egg dumplings and put them into the pot together, and then poured half of the soup into the pot, put the grate on the shelf, and put the dried vegetables and meat leftover from yesterday, the shredded sour and hot radish were placed on it, and a plate of six white-flour steamed buns was put on the lid of the cauldron and sat down to cook the hot rice.
The food in the kitchen is fragrant, and a clay pot is boiling medicine on the small red clay stove on the big table in the middle room.
For a while, the fragrance of medicine and food was mixed together and floated in this humble hut, in the room, Brother An sat on the kang and practiced big characters, and Xing'er sat at the table and watched the fire.
Li Yunbao smelled these smells, and looked at the people in the room and felt very peaceful, although there were some small twists and turns, wind and rain, but it was unexpectedly warm, maybe it was good to live a lifetime in this strange time and space.
At noon, Li Yunbao and Xing'er An'er had lunch on the kang, Xing'er was busy cleaning up the dishes, wiping the table, washing the dishes, and was very diligent, Li Yunbao asked her to rest, don't do it, the little girl is not happy.
Seeing this, she went, and it was not interesting for her own people to come and go politely, Li Yunbao saw that the three bowls of water had been boiled into one bowl of water, so he carefully poured out the medicine and prepared to serve Shen Xingnan to drink.
Carrying the medicine bowl into the inner room, he gently pushed Shen Xingnan to wake up: "Anan, wake up, can you sleep after drinking the medicine?"
"Hmm." He replied softly, with a hoarse tone that had just woken up.
After Li Yunbao saw him wake up, he found a pillow to raise it and let him lie on it, and then dragged a pony to the side of the kang and sat down face to face with Shen Xingnan, then held the medicine bowl in his left hand, scooped up the medicine with a spoon in his right hand and blew it on his lips, and then fed it to Shen Xingnan to drink.
The man lying on the kang thought helplessly, he was very happy to have his beloved wife waiting to drink medicine like this, but the problem was that he didn't like bitter medicine, if he drank it all in one go, it was bearable, but this spoonful of drinking was ...... It was really a sweet burden, and he suddenly felt a stomachache.
But seeing Ah Bao feeding himself gently in front of him, he felt, like, maybe, it's not unbearable, right?
After drinking a large bowl of medicine in one gulp, Li Yunbao took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of his mouth, looked at Shen Xingnan and asked with a smile.
"Is it good? Shen Xingnan, if you don't take good care of yourself in the future, then it won't be so simple to drink medicine, I will definitely add two handfuls of Coptis chinensis to you! Someone, who must have forgotten to promise me to come back with all my beards and tails, but what happened?"
Saying such frightening words in a spicy and gentle tone, Shen Xingnan sighed in his heart, it's hard to be a man! In the future, you must not mess with your own tigress! Lady, you treat your husband like this, can we still have a happy play?
Shen Xingnan looked at Li Yunbao with aggrieved eyes.
"What, dissatisfied? If you don't accept it, it's right! If you don't suffer enough today, how can you understand the pain in the hearts of our mother and son? If you have a three-long and two-short, do you really want other men to sleep with your wife and beat your baby?"
When Shen Xingnan heard her words, he immediately gritted his teeth and educated Li Yunbao, "You woman really dare to say anything, don't mention it again in the future, otherwise I won't teach you a lesson." ”
Li Yunbao replied to him coldly unmoved, "It's okay if you don't want me to say this, it depends on your performance in the future." Shen Xingnan, you remember this girl, you Shen Xingnan belong to me Li Yunbao from head to toe, from the inside to the outside, without my permission, you have to take care of yourself and protect yourself, whether it is your body or your heart! Did you hear me?"
Shen Xingnan listened to Li Yunbao's bold and bold words, but smiled helplessly.
"Well, it's all yours, as long as you don't leave me, it's all yours!"
Although he can't guarantee that he won't get hurt, he can do it as little as possible.
As for the heart - in fact, his heart was small, small, small enough to fit a woman. The only one who can live in this life is her Li Yunbao, Li Yunbao in front of her!
