After the boiled fish was ready, Mo Xiaohe set aside a part, put it in a large porcelain basin under his body, brought it to the small table outside, and showed off to his cousin Li He, "Cousin, you try it, my specialty is a good dish, I am sure you still want to eat it after you eat it!" ”

The spicy aroma makes people drool, a layer of fiery red chili pepper on top, the scorched fish fillet outside, Li He sandwiched a piece, put it in his mouth, chew it carefully, the fish fillet is smooth, and the chili pepper and pepper do not cover the fresh fragrance of the fish, he can't wait to stuff a chopstick in his mouth again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Lewen mobile network

"Beware of thorns!"

Mo Xiaohe looked proud, he didn't need Li He's praise, the speed at which he put down his chopsticks proved everything.

"Oops, this dish is too expensive, so much oil ......"

It's delicious, it's okay to satisfy your cravings occasionally, let Li He make this dish, he can't be reluctant to use ingredients, just a fresh big fish, it will cost hundreds of dollars. There are many big fish in the waterhole on the mountain, and if it weren't for the effort to go down the mountain, he would want to do a business without capital and sell fish in the town.

"Cousin, there are more profitable businesses, do you have any other ideas?"

There are only a limited number of fish in the mountains, and if you sell one, there will be one less, Mo Xiaohe lives in the mountains and doesn't want to be disturbed by this purity. If Li He makes money by selling fish, he will definitely attract people's attention, and driven by huge profits, his home is likely to be exposed.

Just cooking with his cousin Li Xiu in the stove, Mo Xiaohe was thinking in his heart, the Mo family is developed, everything depends on the clan in the future, as long as he does not change the dynasty, he is destined to have no worries about food and clothing, rich and noble for a lifetime, and if his family is good, he will also help his relatives.

Uncle and aunt are all responsible people, digging in the soil, there is not much left throughout the year, and it is just enough for the family to chew, praying for good weather every year, if there is a disaster year, you can only rely on hunger, drink the clear rice soup to live.

"It's better not to worry too much about it, and you can make a windfall."

Wiping her hands on the apron, Mo Xiaohe reminded her cousin, mainly because she felt that her uncle and aunt would not fool, they lacked the talent to do business, and they were real, some people were on credit, and they were pitiful, and the two of them were helpless, and the Li family only had a shrewd cousin.

Eat hard, Fang is a master, Li He was squeezed before, his face is yellow and thin, only skin and bones remain, Mo Xiaohe remembers it vividly, that is, in less than a year, after the transformation, there are such big changes, and the iron business is much better than before, and it is thriving.

"Want to get rich, but don't you want to work hard?"

Li He touched his chin and said affirmatively, "There must be such a business." ”

"What is it that you have in mind?"

Mo Xiaohe calculated, in the early stage, it must be invested, and only with input can it be output, and this silver will be out of her, if the uncle has to settle accounts with her, and make money in the future, he will give it to her.

"Robbing houses."

There is no need to worry about this job, because the person who should be worried about is the one who was robbed, and he made a windfall the fastest, and when he was caught, Li He rolled his eyes and asked his cousin, "Don't you have any ghost ideas, do you?" ”

"Why!"

Mo Xiaohe calculated, it is best for the family to unite as one, make a living, make a fortune, and embark on the bright road, she takes this matter to heart, she can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, she has to do a market research to see what the people in the town or county have.

A few dishes were served one after another, the wine had passed three rounds, the dishes had five flavors, the sky was already completely dark, Li He had already been lying on the table, full of wine, and he was asleep, and Feng Dachun, who had a good amount of wine, couldn't stand it, walked swayingly, and wanted to help pick up the dishes and chopsticks.

"No, just me and my cousin here."

Mo Xiaohe twitched the corner of his mouth, gloating, his cousin must have slept like a dead pig tonight, that meal of his husband's unique stunt, roast pheasant, he can't eat it!

Gu Zheng sent Li He into the room first, and then sent Feng Dachun, Feng Dachun said that he was fine, he could sober up in an hour or two, and he went to sit by the waterhole in the backyard for a while.

The cups and plates on the table were messy, Gu Zheng put them all in a wooden basin, took out the ashes and hot water from the stove, mixed them with washing dishes and chopsticks, and removed the greasy, Mo Xiaohe and Li Xiu ate less, and were responsible for cleaning up the two pheasants and removing the hair on the pig's trotters, and roasted and ate them later.

"It's lively when you come, usually it's just me and my husband."

The two of them have a unique romantic mood, but the four of them are lively, everyone sits in one place, eating roast chicken, drinking greasy plum green tea, chatting all over the world, relaxed and comfortable, Mo Xiaohe didn't expect that after getting married, he would be more free than before.

She remembered the days when she was guarded by her mother Li, like being in prison, especially when she couldn't meet her husband, and she could only look at each other from a distance every day when the sun was setting.

"It's nice to have someone with you."

Li Xiu is very envious, sometimes she has seen too many girls in the village, it is not for nothing that she is in such a miserable situation as Mo Daya, she has a sense of fear of the future, afraid that she will meet someone unladylike, but she can calm down and think, if she can be like her cousin, she is really pampered, it is quite happy.

She is detained at home on weekdays and can't contact anyone, if she can personally inspect a man's character, she will be more at ease, she has a crush on Feng Dachun, even if he has nothing now, Li Xiu has a hunch that he is a good person.

An hour later, in the room, Li He's snoring sounded loudly, Li Xiu went in to watch it a few times, helplessly blocked his ears, and prayed that his eldest brother would be quieter, and the magic sound would be in his ears, and no one would be able to sleep well at night.

The moon and stars are sparse, the mountains and fields are wet, Mo Xiaohe and Li Xiu are swinging, Gu Zheng and Feng Dachun are doing coolies, one is roasting chicken, and the other is roasting pig's trotters.

Feng Dachun had a set, put barbed wire on the fire rack, smeared with a layer of oil, the pig's trotters were divided into two, marinated with several spices, and just roasted for a while, it made a sizzling sound.

"Brother Dachun, you are from Da Yue, won't you be unaccustomed to the soil and water here?"

Li Xiu heard that Luzhou is a big city with beautiful mountains and rivers, extremely prosperous, silk, tea, wine, embroidery, everything, as well as all kinds of incense powder, spices, she thinks that Dayue women must also love beauty.

"I was a little uncomfortable on the road, but I felt okay when I arrived."

In the two countries, the habits of the people are completely different, so it is inevitable that there will be a lot of misunderstandings, the Dayue people are hospitable, the people in the village visit each other, it is more common, and the Dawu people are delicate and care*, before entering the door, they must say hello, trespassing on the house is a felony, which is also the reason why Gu Zheng and Mo Xiaohe avoid the official errand.

If you want to say that there is really something uncomfortable, Feng Dachun can't stand the stinky beauty of women, he went to Chai He's fifty-year-old lady to apply grease and powder, making himself fragrant and causing him to sneeze constantly.

"There's one more thing I don't understand."

Feng Dachun's business did not go well on the first day, he made firewood on the mountain, but did not sell it, and the reason for the rejection was that the firewood was of different sizes and was disorganized, and he was not in a good mood when he looked at it.

He is very depressed, Chai He still has to look good? Throw it in the stove room, as long as it's not wet wood, it's good to burn, and it's not to choose a daughter-in-law, but also to see if the appearance is slippery!

"And then, how did you sell it?"

Mo Xiaohe covered his mouth, no wonder, the people here have reached the point of madness in the pursuit of beauty, and the Dayue people are used to being unkempt, and the women in the village are very casual, in order to work conveniently, they wear clothes and pants, except for the new daughter-in-law, few wear skirts.

"Later, I selected the length of the firewood and tied a bundle with hemp rope, and the price was raised by two cents.

Feng Dachun smiled helplessly, he called too much firewood, and he hadn't sold it all, some people looked at his dress, and the door didn't open, when he went back to look in the mirror, he was stunned for an hour, his appearance, is it very much like a bad person?

Later, the owner couldn't look past it and told him that he must pay attention to his clothes when doing business, not too dirty and tattered, wipe the sweat on his face, and not affect the perception of others, so as to do a good job.

Feng Dachun described it vividly, Li Xiu couldn't help but laugh when she heard it, she didn't have much time to talk with her cousin, and she didn't have time to ask about Dayue's customs and customs, Mo Xiaohe occasionally answered, and several people had a full meal, which was very enjoyable.

Early the next morning, Li He finally got up, and after he went out, he found that there were still traces of charcoal fire in the yard, and a pile of bones on the ground, he scratched his head, blamed himself for sleeping too soundly, and dropped a few people who ate alone.

The road down the mountain was long, and after walking for nearly an hour, Feng Dachun said goodbye to everyone, and Mo Xiaohe and his wife and the two brothers and sisters of the Li family took the gifts that had been prepared in advance on the carriage and returned to Lijia Village, which was not far away.

The sky was bright, the carriage was at the entrance of the village, and I met the old man of the Li family who was enjoying the cool under the shade of the tree, and he was also Mo Xiaohe's grandfather.

"Grandpa, I'm back!"

The carriage hadn't stopped yet, Mo Xiaohe couldn't wait to jump down, in the impression that her grandfather didn't like to talk, he was a thin old man, every time she came, he would secretly stuff a copper plate in her hand and let her go to the grocery store at the entrance of the village to buy candy to eat.

"Little Lotus is back! Good, good! ”

The taciturn old man of the Li family was so excited for the first time, looked at Gu Zheng carefully, nodded frequently, his body was strong, and at first glance he was a kind man who could do work, hard-working and hard-working, it didn't matter if he was ugly, he had lived for most of his life, he thought about everything, and Changjun couldn't fill his stomach.

"Grandpa, I brought you good wine, tea, and your favorite pheasant and fish from Luzhou."

Mo Xiaohe hugged her grandfather, she was very excited, she hadn't seen her relatives for more than half a year, she missed it very much, she thought that she could do something for her family in the future, it might not be an earth-shattering event, just let her grandparents smile more.

"Xiaohe, you are in a hurry with these things, it is too heavy."

This is the first time that Mo Xiaohe has brought Gu Zheng to recognize the door after getting married, and a few people have just entered the yard, and they were discovered by their sharp-eyed grandmother, who held her in her arms, looked left and right, and screamed with their hearts.

Grandma's house is still the same, chubby, blushing, not much has changed, the uncle is in the field, Li He hurriedly called someone, and Wen has seen Gu Zheng a few times in the town, she is already very familiar, she brought tea and entertained the young couple.

After a while, the uncle followed Li He into the door, he washed with a basin of water at the door, and then entered the door to change a set of clothes, and then came out.

"Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, this is my husband Gu Zheng."

was a marriage before, about why they got married in a hurry, Mo Xiaohe and Wen said, I believe everyone in the family knows, look at the attitude of several people, look at Gu Zheng differently, there is danger along the way, and the heart of the people can be seen at the critical moment, Gu Zheng worked hard to save people, which proves that Xiaohe did not see the wrong person.

"Shall you stay here today, and go back to town?"

Wen's eyes were squeezed, Mo Xiaohe understood, she and her husband were asked by the yamen officials, and her grandfather and grandmother didn't know at all, for fear that the two would leak their mouths.

Mo Xiaohe wanted to stay, but the family was small, and if she stayed overnight, she would occupy her cousin's house, so Mo Xiaohe still politely refused, she had dinner and wanted to go to the town to see, her cousin Mo Daya was still under the noses of Lao Qianpo and Li Er.

Since they are all acting, she is also happy to cooperate, to see how to play the vicious mother and son of the Li family around, and finally send them to prison.

Gu Zheng took the initiative to stay in the courtyard to chop firewood, accompanied by Li He, in fact, he was still not very used to seeing too many people, he was clumsy, he didn't know what to say, and he felt that he was an outsider.

"Take your time, the family is good."

Li He is careful, he can feel Gu Zheng's discomfort, the people in the village don't pay much attention to it, and the family will not judge people by their appearance, as long as the young couple is doing well, as long as they are relatives, they will only support and do not interfere.

"Thank you."

Gu Zheng could see it clearly, Li He must have said a lot of good things for him behind his back, otherwise the family would not have such a cordial attitude, after all, it was the first time they met in the formal sense.
