Volume 1 Chapter 20: I Want to Drink Chicken Soup
Pei Qin couldn't help but sigh when she saw the wind under her feet. She must have lived too chic in her previous life, and the thief couldn't see it, and she was jealous of her, so she crossed over to this aggrieved place and became a hard worker!
If you want to talk about Pei Qin's glorious history, it is really a legend.
And now, Pei Qin dragged two large bundles of dry firewood on her back, Fang's life became a joke, and she lived a tragedy. If their mothers add up, the whole thing is a tragedy!
Carrying two huge bundles of firewood on his back, Pei Qin protested strongly in his heart while walking, and comforted himself with money.
This turtle crawls at the same speed, and she probably can't even eat lunch this day.
After walking for a while and resting for a while, just when Pei Qin was about to get tired, he finally came to the town.
Count her luck today, all the chopping is dry firewood, and before she turned around the alley, someone took a fancy to her and wanted to buy her firewood.
Pei Qin looked at the person's dress and temperament, wearing a silk jacket, the little old man looked quite charming, and patted the firewood, "This is the dry firewood that I specially cut on the mountain, it is dry, and it is burning poplar trees." Carrying it from miles away, eight cents! ”
It's a bit expensive to ask for eight cents, but what if someone gives it with a head draw!?
The old man looked at Pei Qin, who was tired and hot, and her face was sweating, "It's not easy to see you as a female doll, and other people's two big bundles are only six yuan, so give you seven yuan!" ”
"Thank you, uncle!" Pei Qin saw him happily, and thanked him very happily, and sold two large bundles of firewood to him.
Holding seven pennies, Pei Qin sighed, "I am tired of working for two days and become a ghost, so I can earn so many pennies." "When I saw the meat bun seller, I spent two pennies to buy two to treat myself. If she doesn't eat something, she is afraid that she will not be able to go back to the village. After returning to the village, she had to go up the mountain to chop some firewood and carry it home to hide people's eyes.
When Pei Qin was tired and half dead, he dragged a big branch back home, and the house was lively, and the yard was full of fragrance.
Pei Wenli, who went to her grandmother's house, also came back.
"Yo! Eldest sister, is this going out to chop wood? It's been a morning out! "Pei Wenli is one year younger than Pei Qin, thirteen this year. said that she was one year younger, in fact, her birthday in the first month was only a few months younger than Pei Qin's birth in August. In addition to being tall and inheriting her mother, she is not as tall as Pei Qin, she is round and well-dressed. doesn't work all day long, and the hands that swallow melon seeds are more delicate than Pei Qin's. Even that face inherited her mother, with a pointed chin, triangular eyes, although white, but a small face, large and small four or five black moles.
That's it, Chen was still afraid that Qian Gouyu would take a fancy to her, and when he looked at Pei Qin, he sent Pei Wenli to her grandmother's house.
Pei Qin glanced at her coldly, ignored it, and pulled the big branch to the backyard.
Pei Houli saw it and hurried after, "I'll just come!" Let's go wash your face! There are also melon seeds to eat! ”
"Eat meat at noon today!" Siya said and asked her in a low voice, "How much did it cost?" ”
Before Pei Qin could talk to her, Zhu greeted her with a smile on his face, "Big girl! Wash your face and come into the house! ”
Chen also called her with a smile.
In the room sat Old Man Pei and Qian Gouyu, as well as Mrs. Qian, and another matchmaker-like woman, and two other daughter-in-law women, who were daughters-in-law surnamed Nie, who were invited to accompany the guests.
Pei Qin looked at it, washed his face expressionlessly, and went to the kitchen to find Fang's.
She was busy cooking, and the freshly killed chicken had shed its feathers and was waiting to be disemboweled. Sanya picked vegetables while boiling the pot, and Pei Wendong took the dim sum and ate it in small bites.
Chen praised Pei Qin as a flower before, embroidering and tea, and now it depends on Pei Qin's cooking skills.
Seeing Pei Qin turn around and enter the kitchen, Chen's eyes flashed with a touch of gloom, and he shouted, "Big girl! Come and say hello to your aunt! I've been waiting for you, I've been waiting for a long time! ”
Pei Wenli came to the kitchen with melon seeds, and looked at Pei Qin up and down with triangular eyes, "At this time, why don't you hurry up and bring the tea over, waiting for others to invite you!" ”
Pei Qin patted Sanya, asked her to get up, sat down to boil the pot by herself, and said, "This will be boring, I'm afraid it won't be enough later, let's rest for a while!" ”
Zhu Shizheng, who couldn't wait to come over, heard her words, his face suddenly fell, he glared at Pei Qin viciously, and came over and gritted his teeth quietly, "Dead girl!" If you dare to make trouble, your mother will get out of Lao Pei's house for me! ”
"Truth or falsehood? I can't ask for it! Pei Qin raised her eyebrows.
Of course, the Zhu family is telling lies, and now they are getting married, how can there be any accidents at this juncture. Seeing that she looked like she was going to make trouble and make a big fuss, the Zhu family had no choice but to deal with her, so he put pressure on the Fang family, "San Lang is just a brother, and you will all have to rely on the boss in the future!" Rely on the big house! See for yourselves! ”
Fang's hand chopping vegetables paused, lowered his head and didn't say anything.
Zhu Shi saw that Pei Qin didn't move, looked at her meaningfully, gritted his teeth angrily, and felt angry in his heart, but he still had to endure it, and returned to the hall with a smile on his face, "Big girl, this girl is shy!" I said I was going to cook a few dishes at noon today, and I was busy in the kitchen! ”
Mrs. Qian frowned slightly, dissatisfied in her heart. Even if she wants to cook, she can say everything, so she has to ask!?
Anyway, the bride price has been pulled, and the family matter has been decided. Chen smiled and said a bunch of rounds.
The other two women who came to accompany the guests also smiled and rounded the scene, others didn't know, they all knew Pei Qin, and they also knew the situation of the old Pei family. However, if Pei Wenli is in high school next year, he will get ahead, and these relatives of the same clan will also have to write well!
said that he asked Pei Qin to cook, but he did it again by Fang's, fried meat, eggs, killed chickens, and fish, it was a very hearty meal.
Pei Wenli and Pei Wenbo stared in the kitchen room, watching the food be served to the hall, leaving only some fried pork with cabbage, and a bowl of chicken soup with a few bones and meat, and then went to eat in the hall.
Siya licked her lips and wanted to go to the hall as well.
Fang Shi stopped her, "This is not sitting at the table to eat and drink, the little baby's family, don't go." ”
Siya also thought about it, and wanted to look at the door, but he didn't want to go.
From time to time, Pei Wenli and Pei Wenbo were kicked out.
This is a family dinner, how can the little baby go to the hall to eat on the table, they say a few words here, and the good dishes are all snatched away. Mrs. Qian's face has not been good since the two of them entered the hall.
Moreover, Pei Qin's sisters and brothers didn't go to the hall, not even the Fang family, so Pei Wenli and Pei Wenbo were special.
Pei Houli didn't look good when he saw that Qian Gou was left, and sent a message to let them go to the kitchen to eat.
But there are not enough dishes left in the kitchen at all, let alone good dishes.
Zhu saw the grievances of the two, and took the bowl to pick up the vegetables.
The old man Pei at the other table glanced at him, such a big day had not been arranged in advance.
Pei Qin fished out all the chicken pieces in the chicken soup bowl, looked at a few bones that were almost meatless, sneered, his eyes fell on Pei Wenbo and Pei Wenli, and asked Pei Wendong and the three, "Do you want to drink chicken soup?" ”
Sanya thought she wanted to drink, but she was afraid that she would get angry, so she shook her head, "Eldest sister, drink it!" ”
Pei Qin's eyes looked at Siya and Pei Wendong, and Siya just wanted to say, but also shook his head.
Pei Qin didn't even get up, he sat directly, half a bowl of chicken soup, and splashed his head towards Pei Wenbo.
