As soon as Hui Niang entered the house in the evening, the old couple conveyed to her the important task of taking the girl to worship God, and Hui Niang's face tightened, and she quickly pulled her daughter to sit down and asked her if she was still uncomfortable.

The girl smiled, "Except for a little bad memory, there is really nothing else." Mother, don't talk about me, how are you doing today? Sit down and rest, I'll serve you dinner. ”

"Don't be busy, let's see what this is?" Seeing that her daughter was okay and could still laugh, Hui Niang mysteriously took out something from her arms.

The Shi family looked at it fixedly, and they were all taken aback.

In the handkerchief, there is a pair of silver earrings with a shiny silver eyebrow. Although it is small, the plum blossom and the magpie standing on the branch are both pleasing and delicate, and the weight, even if it is less than one or two in total, there are at least seven or eight dollars. This thing may not be a big deal for a rich family, but for a small family like them, it is worth a lot.

Daddy Shi hurriedly asked, "Where did you come from?" ”

Hui Niang smiled proudly, "The Ouyang family rewarded it!" I should be lucky today, it turned out that the apricot girl who delivered the meal was sick, and let me go temporarily, who would have thought that I just happened to bump into the third wife in the New Year's new jewelry, and their three masters were also there, and when I saw it, I asked, 'They all said that there is a new chef who makes tofu, and you made the plate of tofu yesterday?' I agreed, and the third master praised him, and then said that he wanted to reward me, and let me go to the jewelry pile by myself. Where do I dare to pick big? Seeing that this pair of earrings was small and chic, and the intention was good, he brought it back to Nianfu, and just put it on for her during the New Year, and it was a little joyful. ”

Hearing the clear way, the second elder of the Shi family was relieved, but the girl immediately changed color.

"Mother, you can't ask for these earrings, you hurry up and send them back to the third wife tomorrow! Go kowtow again to make a difference, and make it clear who asked you to deliver the food, even if the third wife wants to be punished, you have to bear it! ”

Hui Niang was happy and wanted to try on her daughter with new earrings, but she didn't expect her daughter to say such a thing, and the two elders changed color when they heard it.

Hui Niang couldn't help but say angrily, "You kid, you were just smashed once, why did even the timid become smaller?" Are you stupid when you are a mother? If the third master gave me a reward alone, I would not be able to ask for it. But this is the third master rewarded me in front of the third wife, and the third wife took the initiative to ask me to choose, what is there to be afraid of? Your child's family doesn't know what to do, this Ouyang family is no better than ordinary people, these jewelry are just rewards for the children who come to pay New Year's greetings, nothing wrong. ”

But the girl said hurriedly, "Mother, don't think about it carefully, the Ouyang family is the third wife in charge, if the girl in front of her is sick and asks someone to deliver food, how can such an errand of showing your face fall on you as an outsider so coincidentally?" I just bumped into the third master of their family, so you want to please this? This is obviously someone who has set up a trick and sent you to the tiger's mouth! ”

Daddy Shi smacked for a while, and then came back to his senses, "Nianfu is reasonable." Hui Niang, you think, the third master has said that he wants to reward you, even if the third wife is unhappy, can she slap her own master in the face in front of others? Naturally, it is necessary to pretend to be generous. You have been born better than others since you were a child, and although you have gained some advantage because of this, have you heard less gossip? Regardless of whether these earrings are really appreciated by others, you will take them back first as Nianfu said, and make amends to the third wife. If the third wife must reward you, you will continue, but you have to tell people this meaning, so that people know that we are not the kind of people who see money. ”

Seeing that her father also said so, Hui Niang couldn't help but believe seven or eight points, but rubbing the pair of earrings, she was still a little reluctant, "Do you really want to go back?" I also want to leave it to Nianfu as a dowry. ”

"Retreat! We didn't earn it ourselves, and we don't feel at ease with it. This time, even Aunt Shi is on her granddaughter's side. He took out his purse from his bosom again, "What do you see here?" It's the money that Agui left for his sister! I turned it out when I was drying the futon today, and I just took it for the New Year. You go and tear up a new dress for Nianfu and yourself, and buy two more flowers to wear. The Ouyang family's things, let's not want them. ”

Hearing such a good thing, Hui Niang was also happy, and finally agreed to return the earrings, but she had other plans for the use of the windfall, "To tell you the truth, I have already told Aunt Lin from the needlework shop in front of me, and I have weighed seven catties of new cotton, and I am making a jacket for you." In two days, the money will be used to pay the bill. ”

The girl hurriedly asked, "What about you?" ”

Hui Niang smiled, "I'm young and strong, but wearing such a thick one will burn me in a panic." But you are old, old, and small, and you are sick carefully if you don't wear thick. Besides, when your new clothes come back, I have done enough to change your old clothes, so why spend all this unjust money? ”

"Nonsense!" Aunt Shi got angry, pointed to Hui Niang's hand and said, "If you don't want to be cold, how did this chilblain come about?" According to me, when we are old and worn, no one will see us at home. Moreover, there is a fire in the house, and it is not so cold. It's your young daughter-in-law, who shows up outside, can't dress too shabby. Go and tell Aunt Lin to change my outfit into what you wear. If you don't follow it, you'll be a new one, and I won't wear it! ”

The girl hurriedly chimed in, "Yes! Mother, you don't wear new ones, and I don't wear them either, how can I say that I'm younger than you! ”

Hui Niang couldn't, so she had to scold her daughter, "You dead girl, you're really bad at learning!" Okay, okay, I'll do it too. However, there are only a few days left before the end of the year, and it is estimated that I will not be able to catch up. I'll do it in a few years, maybe it'll be cheaper. ”

Aunt Shi sank her face, "No! If Aunt Lin is not available, you go to her house and pull the cotton cloth back, and I will make it for you. Forget it, I won't look for you for this matter, Ming'er Nianfu will take the money to find Aunt Li, and let her take you to buy things back, so that your mother will not be obedient. ”

Well! As soon as the girl responded, Hui Niang slapped away her little hand that took the money bag, and said angrily, "Okay, okay, can't I go by myself?" Don't let Nianfu go out, I feel weird cold and panicked when I come back at night, I can't figure out that it will snow tomorrow, so let her stay at home. ”

Daddy Shi smiled and looked at this lady arguing, until this time he came out to play a round and said, "Then it's decided, let's eat." The child is tired from the day, and it is time to go hungry. ”

The family talked and laughed, and after dinner, Hui Niang went to the kitchen to wash the bowls, and the girl fetched hot water and waited for her grandfather to wash. When the second elder fell asleep, he went back to the room to see that Hui Niang was so tired that she didn't even take off her shoes, so she fell asleep on the bed half-crooked.

The girl was distressed, and hurriedly took the quilt to cover her mother first, and brought a pot of hot water, took off her shoes and socks to burn her feet, and when she saw several bruises, red and swollen chilblains on her feet, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Hmm...... Nianfu ......" seemed to notice something, Hui Niang struggled to wake up from the dream, the girl hurriedly wiped her tears and said softly, "Mother, you are so sleepy, I will press it for you." ”

"No need to ......" Hui Niang felt sorry for her daughter, and wanted to take her feet, but she was too tired, her eyelids were so sour that she seemed to be pressed by a thousand catties of boulders, and she couldn't open them, and the feeling from her feet was too comfortable, so that she fell into a sweet dream almost without resistance.

The next morning, when the girl woke up, Huiniang had already finished cleaning up the housework and was about to go to work. repeatedly told her not to forget to go to Aunt Lin to order cotton clothes for herself, and then return the earrings, so the family said goodbye.

The girl stood at the door until she couldn't see Hui Niang's figure before she came into the house.

Tomorrow is the twenty-third day of the lunar month, and the New Year is about to be celebrated. Although the family is poor, I still have to prepare something. There are no big fish and big meat at home, but you have to make something delicious, which means.

The girl saw that there were still a few wilted white radishes at home, so she peeled the skin and took it to wipe the silk, Aunt Shi knew that she wanted to make radish balls, but she didn't understand why the girl peeled the skin, "Although the skin is wilted, is it not the same to rub it into silk?" What a pity to throw it away in vain. ”

The girl smiled, "Grandma, don't worry, I won't throw it." This skin is old, and it is inevitable that there will be slag in the meatballs, so it is better to cut it and soak it in ginger and shallot salt water to make kimchi and eat, then it will be squeaky and chewy. ”

Aunt Shi nodded, and for a while saw that the girl was not taking salt, but using sugar to pickle and rub the radish into thin strips, she couldn't help but say hurriedly, "Did you take the wrong Nianfu?" That's sugar, not salt. ”

The girl smiled again, "Grandma, don't worry, I know that this is sugar." Although salt can kill water, but not fresh with sugar, you will know how to blow it up after a while. Besides, this water can also be used to moisten your throat for you and your grandfather! ”

Father Shi laughed when he heard this, "Look at our luck, we can do more than you." It's a pity that we don't have tofu at home, how beautiful would it be if we didn't fry a few tofu balls? ”

Speaking of tofu, Aunt Shi wanted to cry again. How desolate should this tofu maker be if he doesn't have tofu? But I heard the girl laugh and said, "Grandpa, are you tired of making tofu all your life?" At this time, I don't want to change my taste, and I'm still thinking about that thing, so I really didn't pursue it! ”

Aunt Shi couldn't help laughing, and the sadness in her heart also dissipated, and suddenly remembered that there was still a half-sack of peanuts in the backyard, although it was somewhat damaged in the fire, but she still let the girl bring it, and lay on the bed with her wife, picking out the good ones one by one, and letting the girl take them to blow up.

The girl fried part of it, and pounded it with garlic, and asked the second elder to help pound a little of it into fine crushed peanuts, then take an egg and sugar and beat it together, and then add some flour and crushed peanuts to make a paste, and wait until the radish balls are fried out of the pot, take a small soup spoon and scoop it in and press it flat, and slowly bake it into a small golden pancake on both sides. Although it is not very good-looking, it can be eaten in the mouth when it is cold, but it is full of fragrance and crispy.

This time, even Aunt Shi was pleasantly surprised, "It's really delicious, better than the peanut candy bought outside." That sticky tooth, this one doesn't. ”

The girl smirked, "Of course! If you have sesame seeds, add some butter to make it even more delicious. ”

Daddy Shi didn't notice this, but found another bright spot. He looked at each piece of golden on both sides, and there was no burnt little cake, and he sighed and admired, "Nianfu you burn this fire so well, and bake it so beautifully!" ”

Belch...... The girl's eyes flickered suddenly, and she hid the strange fire scar on her right wrist into her sleeve unnaturally, sneering modestly, "Luck, luck." ”

Fortunately, the second elder had a natural blind trust in his granddaughter, and he didn't care, he only tasted the cake slightly, and he was reluctant to eat it again, so he asked the girl to put away the peanut crepes and leave them for Hui Niang to come back.

(Xie Lu, Xie Ajiu, and Litchi voted for the evaluation, please don't forget to vote.) Then, the peanut sesame cake is really super delicious, and it is my favorite baked cookie. [bookid=2273205,bookname="Chonghua"][bookid=2403377,bookname="Qingfeng Nian"]
