Torches were lit in the courtyards on both sides, rendering the spring night particularly hazy and magnificent.

The teenagers were still eating in the courtyard of the Huang family, but Lin Chun did not sit at the table, holding a bowl of rice and talking in a low voice with the cuckoo standing by the courtyard wall covered with green vines. The fragrance of honeysuckle is quietly pervasive, corresponding to the hustle and bustle of human voices.

Sophora looked at them in the shadows, her heart aching.

She herself wondered, it had only been a few days, her mood was changing every day, and tonight's dissatisfaction with the cuckoo reached its peak: the more her heart hurts, the more her heart desires, and the more firm that thought becomes.

The power of love is powerful, and the wisdom is infinite, which has been strongly proved in the acacia flower.

After returning home, Xiao Ye, the cousin next door, came to talk to her and squeezed a bed with her.

Speaking of what happened to the Lin family today, Huaihua focused on Lin Chun's promise to make a dresser box for every little girl who helped cook, "Chunsheng said that there are people who help." ”

Xiao Ye immediately came to the spirit and said that he would go tomorrow.

Huaihua thought for a while and said, "It's not good for me to take you there, otherwise it's like I'm shallow and pull you to take advantage." You go with Tian Mei. ”

Xiao Ye nodded hurriedly and said that this idea is good, and it will not be obvious if there are many people.

At the moment, it was decided, and the two of them did not mention it when they slept.

In the dark night, Huaihua looked at the top of the bed with blazing eyes, imagining how the cuckoo would cope with a group of little girls who came to help tomorrow.

If he can't deal with it, will Lin Chun feel that her proposal today is too reckless and has caused him trouble? The big-headed aunt will also blame the cuckoo for not talking too much today!

……

Besides, Xiaofang, when she had dinner, she didn't go out. After the others dispersed. Her mother brought a bowl of rice and some vegetables, and told her to get up and eat.

"You're a no-brainer! Qinghe was also scolded. Why didn't you see her crying and running home to hide? You don't even eat, you're hungry. It's not you who suffers. ”

The eldest aunt counted it hatefully, and the strange girl was not promising.

Xiao Fang remembered what happened before, her eyes were red again, and tears fell into her rice bowl.

She choked up and said, "How am I like them, one by one, ......"

She wanted to say that they all had no face and no skin, and they didn't have the Sven points of their daughter's family, and they felt that scolding people like this for no reason was not even good for themselves, so she wiped her tears and ate.

Her mother didn't say anything. His face was gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After Xiaofang finished eating, she said, "You keep your mouth shut for me tomorrow, and don't care what they do." Your aunt is so angry today. She likes the cuckoo the most, and the finch is her daughter-in-law who has not passed through the door, what are you doing to find fault with them? ”

Xiao Fang listened, and the temperament that had just been suppressed came up again, and said, "I just said that, and I didn't say it to the cuckoo." It was they who deliberately used the cuckoo to get ahead. so that I will be scolded. Besides, I'm not wrong, the cuckoo can't be said? Her big hands and feet are blowing this and that. No fuel consumption? good big bone broth, which she uses to marinate bamboo shoots and bracken; A dozen are more than a dozen eggs, wrapped in egg dumplings; Tenderloin again. It's chicken breast meat again, and what kind of chicken wings and phoenix feet; Every day. Chop meat to make dumplings, make buns, and add eggs. It costs meat and white flour...... Mother, think about it, how much business does it make her lose? It's not your own thing, don't feel distressed! My aunt and uncle didn't know it, so I heard others praise it, and I felt that my face was ......"

The more the eldest aunt listened, the more her face sank, and the flesh on her cheeks was about to collapse.

Xiao Fang was talking energetically, Lin Datou and his wife went back to the house, and when they heard a voice here, they came over to see Xiao Fang, "Xiao Fang is better?" ”

The eldest aunt hurriedly said in a loud voice: "It's better." I've just eaten. Her aunt, she's done busy outside, and Xiaolian is back? ”

The eldest daughter-in-law walked in and said, "Xiaolian is looking at the clothes at the cuckoo." ”

The eldest aunt caught a glimpse of Lin Datou shaking at the door, and left again, and hurriedly shouted, "Her uncle will also come in and sit for a while." Xiaofang, this baby, is holding back her strength in her heart, and I can't scold it. My aunt and uncle helped me discipline a few words, otherwise she would not know how thick the sky is. ”

This is strange, it is appropriate for the eldest daughter-in-law to discipline her niece, but it is not very suitable for Lin Datou, let alone at night.

However, Lin Datou still came in.

He also heard about the quarrel between the little girls in the evening. Unlike his cousin Lin Dameng, Lin Datou is a careful man, he is thinking about asking his daughter-in-law about this, especially when it involves two sons and a future daughter-in-law, of course he has to be concerned.

After the eldest aunt sat the two down, she half-spit out and half-revealed Xiaofang's grievances, and said that how she scolded her daughter, she shouldn't speak up in front of people, she easily offended people, and she should come back at night to tell her aunt if she has anything, and so on.

It turned out that everyone in the Wei family (the mother-in-law of the big head daughter-in-law) knew the stinginess and temperament of the son-in-law of Lin Datou, and now he wanted to marry the Lin family, and specially taught his daughter to be able to live and be thrifty, and not to be extravagant, that uncle would definitely not like it.

The Wei family is not rich in the first place, and Xiaofang is also thrifty, and for this reason, of course she does what she likes. The meaning of the eldest uncle's words is that Du Juan Zhang Luo is not good, wastes the things of the Lin family, and will not live. Today, Xiaofang offended Qinghe in order to protect the Lin family......

Lin Datou couldn't hear anything, and they were speechless.

The big-headed daughter-in-law said vaguely: "The cuckoo can cook." The same thing can be made many different from the same. It didn't cost anything. ”

The eldest aunt was dissatisfied when she heard this, and exclaimed, "Oh, it doesn't cost anything!" Don't you know......" hurriedly compared what Xiao Fang had just said again, meaning that they were all blinded.

Lin Datou couldn't help it.

He's stingy, not stupid.

On the contrary, because he is stingy and shrewd in settling accounts.

According to what they said, it is best to use meat, eggs and oil for stir-frying, and eat corn paste every day, otherwise it will be a waste.

He saw that his daughter-in-law didn't know how to be good, and he knew that if she told her, she couldn't figure out the account, so he hurriedly grabbed the conversation and said: "The cuckoo will live, and he is very skillful." For example: for a pound of meat, Xiaofang can make a bowl of braised pork. If it were given to the cuckoo, she would definitely take out the lean meat and fry two small stir-fries; Then boil the fat out of the oil, or burn the bamboo shoots. whether to burn bracken; She would chop up the oil residue and beat an egg to add it. Chop some more leeks and mix two bowls of stuffing. Make a meal of dumplings. You say, how many dishes has she cooked? There are all meat in the bowls. ”

He felt that he had spoken vividly enough, but not everyone was as clever as he was—he thought he was very smart—and his aunt was a solid piece of wood, a man of reason.

I saw her eyes widen, and said in a tone of hatred that iron is not steel: "My uncle, you see a few dishes, and you don't want to think about the eggs and the white noodles?" Can cuckoos still make dumplings? ”

Lin Datou was so depressed that he was dying, why did he think it was so hard to talk to a stupid person?

How much can an egg be worth?

Can you build a house and not be willing to give people white rice and white noodles?

He took a deep breath and said, "Then it's better not to make dumplings, and not to beat eggs." Let's mix the stuffing with oil residue and sauerkraut to make tortillas. These days, we eat tortillas every day, and everyone praises them when they eat them, isn't this made of white flour? ”

The eldest aunt was speechless.

Lin Datou saw that she was still unconvinced, and Xiao Fang's expression was even more dissatisfied, so he didn't want to talk to them anymore - he couldn't persuade them to come, so he stood up and said with a smile: "In the past, I was very slammed." Got a reputation for being stingy. Now that life is better, we can't be too picky. The son still wants to marry a daughter-in-law, it's too bad for his reputation. Besides, there is no shortage of meat to eat at home. ”

After saying that, he walked out of the house.

The last sentence is the most important -

Now the Lin family has no shortage of meat to eat. Why save it?

Autumn, spring, winter, plus like the wind, if you go up the lynx together for a few days. Not to mention that there are hundreds of catties of prey back, and he is still afraid that there will be no meat to eat?

The mountain road is so difficult to walk. It's impossible to get the meat out of the bowl and sell it. With that delayed work, it is better to hunt a few more animals. Peel a few more skins, that's worth it.

He was also a frugal temper, and when he couldn't finish eating the meat, he would never throw it away, so he salted it. Later, he found out that this was even more of a loss, not to mention the salt, and it was annoying to eat too much salted meat. I didn't want to eat it and was reluctant to throw it away, so I had to give it away. Giving away the marinated meat is equivalent to giving away salt and meat, which is really a big loss. Once he had the experience, he stopped doing such stupid things.

The eldest aunt only saw that the Lin family was having a good time, so how could she know the inside story.

Because the Lin family goes to the mountains to hunt in autumn every day, they also pick animals with good fur, so they will not get many chickens and rabbits to store at home, and others will not be able to see it.

According to Lin Datou's meaning, he put the prey on the mountain and raised it, and if he wanted to eat it, he would go up the mountain to catch it, and if he got it back, he would be struck by lightning.

Therefore, Lin Datou does not feel sorry for the meat, but feels sorry for the white rice and white noodles. For the fields in this valley are limited, and although there is no shortage of miscellaneous grains, rice and wheat cannot be grown in ordinary wasteland. The Lin family has a lot of labor and a lot of food, so it is not enough to eat. It's hard to walk on mountain roads, and there is nowhere to buy money even if you have money. There are few people in the village who have a surplus.

The cuckoo cooked, took a lot of effort to make a lot of good dishes, and then matched it with miscellaneous grains for people to eat, and the people who ate it did not complain, saving a lot of rice and noodles.

The eldest aunt and Xiaofang wanted to sell well, but they were off the rails.

The eldest aunt suddenly amplified her words when she saw the stingy uncle, and she was speechless for a while.

Could it be that my uncle is now straight, not stingy, and has become face-saving?

The eldest daughter-in-law returned to the house, and although Lin Datou lay down, he still hadn't slept.

He waited for her to go to bed, and suddenly sighed: "Boss, this family ...... I'm afraid your niece won't be suitable. Let's see. The daughter-in-law of the long house will help support the door in the future, and she will be magnificent. ”

He is stingy, but he wants his daughter-in-law to be magnificent, and he doesn't feel wrong at all.

The eldest daughter-in-law also sighed, and said after a while: "Let's wait and talk." I'll wait until the house is built. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to open my mouth. ”

She also felt that Xiaofang was not very good, but when she was a guest, she quarreled with others, which was more than one layer worse than the Huang family's daughter. Look at the cuckoo and the yellow finch, there is so much trouble today, and I haven't seen their sisters show their teeth and claws, and people don't dare to bully.

Lin Datou said: "It's okay." If you can't pull your face, I'll talk about it then. ”

There was nothing he didn't dare to say. If it's not good, don't want it, if it's good, you have to grab it, which is very consistent with Dameng's daughter-in-law.

Besides, the Huang family, when the kitchen and yard were cleaned up, and after the people dispersed, the family gathered in the kitchen to talk, boiling water and washing.

Feng asked Huang Que and Du Juan in detail what the situation was today.

Huang Que said it again.

Feng pouted angrily: "She (referring to Xiaofang) is stupid and talks about people." If Qiusheng marries her, she will also cause trouble and talk crookedly in the future, and you are afraid that you will be angry. ”

I was worried about my daughter's future days. (To be continued......)
