Chapter 374: Flower Branch
"The eldest sister is giving you a wedding today, I just hope that you will go, and from then on you will be safe and smooth, and your husband will come with a white head, and your children and grandchildren will be prosperous."
Qiao Zhen sincerely blessed the osmanthus.
"Thank you, big sister."
The eyes under the osmanthus hijab were already red, and they couldn't speak.
"Okay, it's time for the newlyweds to cry and get married. Let's cry twice, goodbye to my father and mother, goodbye to my sisters. ”
Xi Po persuaded osmanthus.
Osmanthus cried a few times, and everyone was also red, Xi Po hurriedly persuaded her, and let Osmanthus shut down.
This is just a ceremony, to show reluctance, not to cry, and it is not good to cry when the face is crying.
Xi Po walked out with the osmanthus in her arms, and the osmanthus has been crowned with her husband's surname since then, and she is a member of the family.
Everyone followed, and watched the osmanthus walk out of the courtyard step by step and get into the carriage.
The drum music sounded, the carriage moved slowly, and the crowd was talking endlessly, but everyone in the Wang family was sad in their hearts.
After the team went away, there were a lot fewer people, Qiao'e and Qiaohong took a carriage to Li's house for a banquet, they were going to go to relatives with osmanthus, and the married girl could go.
Qiaozhen didn't go because he was not feeling well.
Dazhong and Yuhua, Erzhong and Meihua also went by carriage, they are considered to be the godbrothers and sisters-in-law of Osmanthus, and they can go when relatives move around.
Qiaozhen sat with Chen, Grandma Yu and Zhou for a while, and she could see that several people were not feeling good in their hearts, and they all missed osmanthus a lot.
Qiaozhen discussed with the Zhou family and wanted to send a maid back to take care of his grandmother Chen and Grandma Yu, after all, they are both old and can't leave anyone around them.
Zhou's things are busy, osmanthus is not there, and Qiaozhen is not at ease.
She proposed to take Chen and Grandma Yu into Chen's house, but neither of them was willing and said that they were not used to it.
Qiaozhen couldn't force it, so he could only think of finding someone to wait.
"No, really. As soon as Osmanthus said kiss, your sister-in-law Jia told me that she wouldn't go to the shop when the time came, and would take care of your milk at home. ”
"Originally, we didn't let them come back to wait for people. But people have this heart, my mother is very grateful, your sister-in-law Jia, I have persuaded her many times, she just doesn't want to go again, and we can't force others. ”
"My mother also thought about this, looking for a maid is not as careful and capable as your sister-in-law Jia, she has this heart, and my mother agreed to her."
Zhou also got up, because her mother-in-law was old. She must have a time that she can't take care of, and it must be better to have a dedicated person to take care of her.
But before she could find someone, Jia Shi found her first and said that he was willing to come back from the shop to take care of the two old men.
Zhou was a little embarrassed, but Jia said. The life at home is lighter, the two grandmothers can take care of themselves, she is okay to cook, just talk, more light than in the shop, I hope the aunt can let her be lazy and fulfill her.
She said that Zhou was not good at refusing. Thanks to Jia's intentions, he could only respond.
"Okay, Sister-in-law Jia looks at it, I can rest assured that I am more relieved than others, Sister-in-law Jia is careful, and she is also a real person. It's a rarity. ”
Qiaozhen nodded, so that she was relieved, and at the same time, she also felt that the few people she brought home were all good.
Jia is real and diligent. has been helping in the shop, although Qiaozhen has helped her save a lot of money, and also let Wang Tao have a book and a career, but that is what she deserves.
Sun Yun is not bad, diligent and kind, after marrying Baosheng, he kept the family in order, and added a grandson to the Zhang family. He is also filial to Bao Shengniang.
It's good for Baosheng, so that Baosheng has no worries, and takes care of the earthen kiln, now the scale of the earthen kiln is quite large, and the radius is famous for hundreds of miles, and the business is too much to do, all thanks to Baosheng.
There is also osmanthus, kind, diligent, sensible, and grateful.
Qiao Zhen smiled, his own vision of people is still accurate, and none of the people who are close to him are treacherous and slippery. This is also a blessing for yourself.
Qiao Zhen accompanied Zhou for a while, and at Zhou's urging, he got up and took the carriage back to the town.
When he arrived at Chen's Mansion, Qiaozhen saw that Zhen Guogong and Mr. Wen did not go out, so he hurriedly ordered someone to arrange lunch.
After lunch, Chen Xuanyu accompanied Zhen Guogong and Mr. Wen to talk, Sun Juhua led Rourou to take a nap, and Qiaozhen was able to lie on the bed to rest.
Her hand rested on her stomach through her clothes.
Suddenly, a bag rose in her stomach, and the child in her belly was kicking her.
Qiao Zhen stroked the place where she had been kicked, this time it must be a son, like a leather monkey, tossing so badly that it didn't make her easy for a moment.
The bulging bag on the stomach slowly subsided, and slowly sank down again, like a pit.
In less than a minute, another bag suddenly popped up in another place.
Suddenly, there were several in a row, and Qiaozhen gently patted his belly.
After several slaps in a row, she said: "You naughty bag, you are punching and kicking in your mother's stomach, do you want to practice martial arts?" Mother's belly is not your target, you light, and then kick randomly, mother will hit you. ”
I don't know if the child inside heard it, Qiaozhen's stomach really calmed down.
The corners of her mouth grinned slightly, but before the smile could be opened, her belly was drumming again, and the bag suddenly rose. Apparently the little ones are protesting.
Qiao Zhen felt helpless in her heart, she really couldn't control this. I had to let the child in the belly play with it.
In the evening, Qiaozhen felt that she had lost her appetite after eating a little, and she felt a little stuffy in her chest and couldn't eat.
Several people asked her about her body with concern, she smiled and said that it was okay, and then said goodbye and went back to the courtyard to rest.
Qiaozhen didn't sleep very well at night, and always woke up. Chen Xuanyu couldn't sleep well.
Qiao Zhen woke up a little early in the morning and felt a little uninspired.
She only ate a small bowl of porridge in the morning, and the side dishes didn't move much.
"Why is your appetite so bad? Do you have something you want to eat? You tell me, I'll buy it. ”
Chen Xuanyu asked with concern, Qiaozhen ate so little, his body would not be able to stand it.
"I don't think about eating anything."
Qiaozhen shook her head, she didn't know what she wanted to eat. There is just no appetite.
"Think about it, there's always something right."
Chen Xuanyu asked softly.
Qiao Zhen tilted her head and thought about it, she felt tasteless in her mouth, but she couldn't remember what to eat.
"Seafood, I think some people want to eat seafood."
It took a long time to decide.
Chen Xuanyu laughed when he heard it, and said, "I said it earlier, it's not easy to say, I'll let someone buy it for you." ”
He called the steward. I told the steward to buy it, but the steward was a little embarrassed.
When Chen Xuanyu asked, he realized that it was not that the steward was unwilling to buy it, but that he didn't have to buy it at all.
There are a lot of people who send things to Chen's house these days.
The unfamiliar Chen Mansion refused. Familiar received.
The kitchen is full of all kinds of precious ingredients, and there are many seafoods, and they are all of the best and freshest from several prefectures this morning.
All kinds of medicinal herbs, aging also filled the storeroom.
Qiao Zhen laughed, no wonder they all want a position of power, this has a position of power, and someone has to stammer, so you don't have to buy anything. Someone sent it to the door.
Qiao Zhen went into the kitchen and took a look. There are so many fresh ingredients that I can't fit them in the kitchen.
Qiaozhen let people classify, leave their own food, and give the rest to the Wang family, and the Qian family sent some each. If you can't finish it, it will go bad.
Qiaozhen asked the cook to list the menu for noon, and looked at it, in addition to the normal meal, she added spicy crab, drunk shrimp, steamed scallops, and a flower branch soup.
Spicy crab is easy to make. Drunken shrimp is also convenient, scallops don't need to be coincidentally explained, and the cook can also master the heat, only this flower soup, the chef has not done it, and it will not. Some are embarrassed.
Qiao Zhen first asked the cook to boil the broth with chicken and duck, which will be used for a while, the better the broth, the better the taste will be.
When it was time to make the broth, Qiaozhen went back to the room and played with Xiao Rourou for a while.
When the hour was about right, Qiaozhen arrived at the kitchen again. She personally instructed the cook on what to do.
She asked the cook to slice the flower sticks and squid.
Then they were asked to cut carrot slices, bamboo shoot slices, peppers, onions and garlic, coriander, etc.
When the pot is hot, Qiaozhen asks the cook to put the minced garlic and chili peppers into the oil pan and stir-fry until fragrant.
After stir-frying, add the boiled stock to the soup stock and burn it over high heat.
After boiling, pour in the sliced squid flower slices, then add various seasonings to taste.
When it simmers to a certain point, turn to low heat, and then thicken the soup with powder and water when it comes out of the pot.
When filling the bowl, Qiaozhen asked the cook to sprinkle a little coriander and sesame oil. It smells fragrant.
There was more seafood for lunch, and everyone was happy.
Spicy crab, fragrant, spicy and fresh, makes people eat it addictively.
Drunken shrimp, tender and delicious, with a faint taste of wine, makes people smack.
The scallops are tender, fresh and delicious, and make people linger.
The flower branch soup has a crisp taste, and the soup is sweet and thick, which makes people enjoy it and want to drink it after drinking.
Qiaozhen drank two bowls, felt comfortable, felt a lot better appetite, and felt relaxed.
Looking at the mess on the table, several people laughed, they really didn't look like people in high positions.
People in high positions are not as bold and cheerful as they are.
"The food is really enjoyable, but it bothers my nephew and daughter-in-law."
Mr. Wen said to Qiao Zhen with a smile while eating tea.
"Uncle is polite, this is what a nephew and daughter-in-law should do."
Qiao Zhen bowed slightly, saying that he didn't dare to be.
"Why bother, it's just that she is greedy herself, and she changes her tricks to eat for herself, we just follow the light, and we don't need to thank her."
Zhen Guogong laughed, seeing that his daughter-in-law could eat and had an appetite, he was also happy.
Qiao Zhen glanced at his father-in-law helplessly.
His father-in-law looks very majestic, but as long as he approves of you, he will treat you very kindly.
"What my father said is that my daughter-in-law is greedy, but next time my daughter-in-law is greedy, she will open a small stove in her yard, but she won't go to the big kitchen."
Qiao Zhen continued with a smile, not annoyed.
"Don't, in addition to being a daughter-in-law for my Chen family, you can also take out the craft of making food, if you don't even do this, you will have a good mouth for your husband, and you will be greedy for your husband, and we will be so good."
Zhen Guogong laughed as he spoke, and everyone also laughed.
