Chapter 38 Years Ago

In the morning, Erya ran to the second aunt's house early: "Second aunt! Why did you move all the dowry of Momiji to my house? ”

The second aunt smiled shyly: "Ye Zi will come back tonight for the New Year, I don't want her to see the dowry we prepared for her." ”

Erya couldn't cry or laugh, "Then she will always know!?" Can you hide it until the day you get married? ”

"Don't worry! I've told the boys not to say it. Ye Zi returned to her grandmother's house after the third year of junior high school, and she is now desperately trying to earn a dowry, and it is estimated that she will not come back if she gets married! The second aunt had a 100% incorrect expression.

"And when, the lacquermaker came over to paint it?"

"This one! It's going to be the New Year. The master said that lacquer is easy to crack in winter, otherwise it would have come over a long time ago. ”

Thinking about the terrible smell of paint, Erya felt uncomfortable. What can be done to avoid it?

The second aunt saw that Erya didn't squeak for a long time, so she asked, "What do you think?" Are you afraid that it will be inconvenient for the master to paint things in your house? ”

Erya shook her head: "No! I was thinking about what kind of furniture should look better in what kind of paint it would look like.

The second aunt said funny: "What else can it be?" It's not all red, purple and red, the color of the dowry is like this! ”

Erya shook her head: "No! There are better colors than that. The natural color of those woods is already very beautiful, if you sprinkle a little bit of gold paint for painting into the varnish, and then brush it on the furniture, not only to maintain the true color of the logs, but also to have a little bit of golden light, you say that it will be more eye-catching than the vulgar red that has lost its teeth?! ”

The second aunt clapped her hands: "My mother! I was moved by what you said so casually, let alone saw it. Yes! Do as you say! ”

"That's right, niece and daughter-in-law! Those shoes, your second uncle said that they were uncomfortable to wear, the soles were too hard, and they couldn't walk much! ”

Regarding this, Er Ya really has no way to deal with it. "Why don't you put thicker insoles on the second uncle!?"

The second aunt shook her head: "I'm afraid it won't work, the size is just right, and it is estimated that I won't be able to wear it if I put on the insole." ”

"Why don't you make a bigger pair?"

The second aunt saw that Er Ya didn't have any tricks, so she waved her hand in disappointment: "Forget it!" Regardless of him, it's good to get used to it! ”

Er Ya nodded secretly, "No, in the original life, men basically wore hard cowhide shoes, and they weren't the same!?" ’

After chatting at the second aunt's house for a while, they all went to the uncle's house to help prepare tomorrow's New Year's dinner.

When I came to the yard of the uncle's house, I saw a dead wild boar lying in the middle of the yard, and there were many rabbits and pheasants.

"Roar! Is this a roe deer or a robe? They had a lot of harvest yesterday, huh? "Er Ya kicked an animal that looked like a deer, and the reason why Er Ya didn't say it was a deer was because deer were too rare in this area.

The eldest aunt came out of the kitchen with her hands in her hands, her sleeves held high. He smiled and said, "Yes! How happy is your uncle, and your second uncle dragged such a big wild boar back, so tired that he didn't sleep well all night, and it hurts to scream. I don't pay attention to him, just hum with him! ”

The second aunt also smiled: "His second uncle is okay, and he is in pain." I didn't call. Sister-in-law, are you already busy? What about them? ”

"Just finished training and came back for breakfast. I don't know who called them away again, saying that they were helping to go to the river to pick up fish! I'm still busy, I'll go in first. As she spoke, the eldest aunt went into the kitchen again and began to get busy.

The second aunt also hurriedly rolled up her sleeves and entered the kitchen: "Sister-in-law! What to do, I'm here to help! ”

The eldest aunt looked around and frowned: "Oops! There are so many things to do, I don't know where to start now, you can watch and do it yourself! ”

"Then I'll boil the water first and pick up the pheasants. Wait for a few boys to come back and finish skinning, and then get it! ”

"Hey! You get it first! The rabbits, wild boars, etc., were handed over to my niece and daughter-in-law and a few boys to get them. While scooping up the salted duck and salted goose that had been stewed and putting them in a basin, the eldest aunt asked her brother and daughter-in-law: "Did my nephew and daughter-in-law tell you just now how about their trip to the provincial capital?" ”

When the second aunt was making New Year's poop, she scooped water in a makeshift cauldron and replied to her sister-in-law: "My nephew and daughter-in-law are busy telling me about Yezi's dowry, and I haven't remembered to ask about this yet." ”

The eldest aunt picked up a pot full of salty goods and put them in the cupboard. sighed and said, "You say it's weird, right!?" I didn't have to spend a penny for the New Year before, and the New Year has passed like that, and this year I have dozens of taels of silver, but I still don't think it's enough to spend, and I really feel that I've spoiled myself! ”

The second aunt said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you are looking for embarrassment for yourself, for so many years, there has been no addition to the family, and this suddenly has to be added, of course, it costs money." These are still small, and buying a field is the big one. ”

The eldest aunt was busy putting the dried seeds into the salt soup pot again, and the second aunt saw that she was busy stopping: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?" ”

The eldest aunt looked at her brother-in-law strangely, "Put this in salted duck soup and cook it, and it will be a bowl tomorrow." ”

"Oops! Hurry up and put it down, Xiaohu's daughter-in-law doesn't like to eat so much, she likes to eat fresh and light! You might as well put it in clean water! ”

The eldest aunt hurriedly put the dried seeds in the water tank again, "Also, after the New Year, it is the time when the green and yellow are not connected, and I don't even have to eat the green vegetables at that time, I don't know, how should this girl live?" ”

The second aunt laughed: "People are very capable!" I heard Xiangzi say that Xiaohu really raised that mushroom. ”

"Is that something edible? Don't get busy! The eldest aunt shook her head helplessly.

Erya was busy peeling rabbit skins in the yard, and Daman, Xiaohu, Dahong, and Xiangzi came back trembling with cotton clothes. Laizi carried Xiaolong, Hongguo pulled Anzi, and followed him all the way into the door.

Xiaohu shouted at Erya: "Daughter-in-law, come home and bring me clothes, oops, I'm freezing to death." ”

When Erya saw them enter the door, she had already put down the knife and was washing her hands. Hearing Xiaohu's wail, he smiled unkindly: "This is frozen to death, and there are still people swimming in the snow!" You also hurry out for a run and exercise. ”

Xiaohu followed Daman into the house with his clothes, and shouted: "I don't swim in winter!" Daughter-in-law, hurry up! ”

Erya asked Hongguo to take a piece of ginger to boil water, and he hurried home to get clothes for Xiaohu.

Xiaohu and they changed their clothes and drank ginger water. Erya asked Xiaohu: "Why did you get fish for so long?" ”

"It's not one, there are a lot of families that have put fish baskets. Let's help all get up together! ”

How many? Erya immediately thought about it and felt that it was normal.

"Are there any big fish?"

Xiaohu thought about it: "There are a few families with the big-eyed ones that I used to have, and there are also big fish, but there are few, unlike our family, which has dozens of them together." This time, my basket is full of small fish, and there are also shrimp. ”

Erya looked at the yard, "Huh! What about fish? ”

"Uncle and second uncle are cleaning up in the back! It's all white-mouthed. ”

Er Ya rolled his eyes: "It's called knife fish, and among the best fish, it's counted as one." ”

Xiaohu smiled: "That daughter-in-law made it for me to eat!" ”

"Okay! Tomorrow I will cook a pot and serve it on the New Year's table. If there are many shrimps, make a dish as well. ”

Xiaolong was drooling when he listened to it next to him, "Sister-in-law, can't you eat it today?" ”

Erya stretched out her face to Xiaolong and said, "Kiss! My sister-in-law will tell you, can you eat it today! ”

Xiaolong stretched out his hand full of fishy smell, hugged Erya's head, and kissed Erya's saliva.

Erya hurriedly wiped the saliva with the sleeve of her clothes, and shouted: "Okay, okay! Today, my sister-in-law will make you fried noodles with small fish and eat, and you won't kiss again. Oh! Oh my mother! I'm doing it to myself! ”

The people in the courtyard fell back and forth laughing, and Anzi was also busy asking, "Sister-in-law!" I want to eat it too, do you want to make it for me too? ”

Erya nodded hurriedly: "Do it!" Do! Everyone has something to eat. Oh my God, tomorrow is the New Year, what good ones don't you eat? Why do you have to eat it today? ”

The second aunt wiped the tears of laughter with her sleeve while lifting the chicken feathers: "It's not that you are used to it, if you are used to children like you, then who can afford it!" ”

"It's alright! It's all ready-made, and I didn't spend any money! Erya argued innocently.

Several boys were busy skinning the rabbit, and the second girl pulled out her hand to help the second aunt lift the chicken feathers together.

The uncle and the second uncle picked the fish and shrimp, one carrying the fish pocket, and the other carrying the basket, and they all came back.

Anzi and Xiaolong rushed over at once, one holding a fish pocket and the other a shrimp pocket, and moved to Erya.

Erya was made to lose her temper by them, stood up and went to the kitchen with a pocket in one hand.

In the kitchen, Erya asked the eldest aunt who was busy below: "Auntie, when you hired a carpenter before, did you grind those fried noodles?" ”

"Yes! However, it doesn't seem to be much. They all like to eat fried meat, so they use more. ”

"I'll see, there's just a bowl."

"One bowl is more than enough, I heard you say that everyone has it, is that enough?"

Erya nodded, "Enough!" I'm going to make a thin one, just drink a bowl for one person, and that's it. Can you still give them food?! ”

As he spoke, he shouted at the little tiger outside: "Little tiger! Go back and bring all the mushrooms, I forgot to take them in the morning. ”

The second girl saw that the two pots were busy, so she asked the eldest aunt: "Do I want to take it to the second aunt's house to do it?" ”

"No, I'll be fine right away. I was busy today and didn't have time to cook porridge, so your eldest sister sent a basket of noodles back, and I will make breakfast below. After a little crossing, the pot was fished up, and it was brought to the table for them to eat first. ”

"That's fine! I'm not in a hurry! Er Ya took out a bowl of small fish and a bowl of shrimp roe, and cleaned her stomach and shrimp head.

After cleaning, first use warm oil to pass the fish and shrimp, the oil should not be too hot, otherwise the shrimp should be empty.

Then add seasoning and bring to a boil. Add a little more mushrooms and simmer over medium-low heat. Boil until the bones of the small fish are crispy, and then beat the fried noodles in. The fried noodles should be sinked in cold water first, and then beaten into the pot, otherwise they will form a lump.
