Chapter Seventy-Three: Part-time Cook

Miao Miao was playing with Niu Niu in the yard when she heard someone knocking on the door, "Is Chunmiao at home?" ”

Miao Miao saw that it was the eldest daughter-in-law of Aunt Wang's family, Li, "It's sister-in-law, I'm at home, come in and sit down." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

This Li was not polite, and sat directly on the bench prepared by Miao Miao, and the two met and exchanged a few words. When Li saw Niuniu's dress, he hugged Niuniu into his arms and said, "Oh, whose little fairy is this, she is so beautiful, can I take her home?" ”

"No! I'm the little fairy in my mother's house, and my aunt can't take me home! Niu Niu said seriously, while the two adults laughed.

"Then what should I do, if you don't want to go home with your aunt, your aunt will be sad!"

Niuniu was anxious when she heard this, usually the aunt is very good to herself and her brother, so she can't be sad, and after a while, Niuniu said: "Then the aunt will move to my house, so that you can see Niuniu every day." ”

"But our family is small, so we can't make room for my aunt to live!" Miao Miao also continued to tease her.

"Then there is no way, if my aunt thinks of me, just come to my house to see me! But remember to bring something delicious! ”

Miao Miao scratched her nose, "You little glutton, you know how to eat delicious food all day long, and your aunt teases you." Niuniu, you go to your brother to play first, and I'll talk to your aunt for a while. ”

At first, Niuniu was reluctant to leave, but when Miao Miao said that she should show off her silk flowers with the stone, Niuniu jumped and left.

Seeing Niuniu go to the backyard, Li said: "My brother and sister's hands are so skillful, look at how beautiful Niuniu is dressed up by you, I don't have your exquisite mind." ”

"I'm also thinking about it, it doesn't matter if Niuniu is still young, if it is used on adults, it must not be laughed at to death."

Li Shi laughed when he heard this, "That's right, but these things you make are special, and I like them when I look at them." The silk flower on Niuniu's head is also made by you, I've never seen that style, but it's much better than the one sold in the town! ”

Of course, Miao Miao knew that what Li said was just polite words, and the four things she did were not like could only fool the children, "Sister-in-law said that she was laughing, don't praise me." ”

"I'm telling the truth, how did you make this silk flower?"

"It's made of these rags on the ground, and this cloth is too small to be of much use, and it's a pity to throw it away, so I picked a few and made silk flowers. If my sister-in-law thinks it's good-looking, I can teach you. ”

"No, no, no!" Li Shi waved his hand again and again, "My thick hands, sewing and mending are completed, doing these meticulous work, I can't do it, or you are skillful." ”

"Then let's do it, I'll do a little more, and I'll send it to you later, we adults can't bring it, can't you still bring it to your family."

So Li didn't refuse, "Then I'll thank her aunt on behalf of my family!" ”

"Sister-in-law, you're welcome, this thing is not valuable, that is, you don't dislike it, I should make a little and give it to my eldest niece."

After chatting for a while, Li said, "Brother and sister, I came to you today for some business. ”

"Sister-in-law, what's the matter? If I can help you, I will help you. ”

"It's not my business, I'm also asking someone to ask, do you know Wang Qinghe in the east of the village?"

"I know this, a few days ago, his father also sent a message to Sanlin, saying that he got married on the twenty-sixth of this month, and let us all go over to drink the wedding wine."

"That's what I'm talking about! That Wang Qinghe's father is a cousin of the village chief, and the family conditions are not bad, and this time he wants to ask you to help the chef. ”

"Huh? I! Is this okay? I've never done this before! "With my own half-baked skills, how can I still be a chef for others!

"Once you are born and twice cooked, your craftsmanship is good, and the big guys know it, but there are not many people in his house and yours, so I am asked to tell you."

"But isn't this wedding banquet all from the restaurant to find a cook and come back to take charge?"

"Oh, brother and sister, you really forgot everything! There is a happy event in our farmhouse, and it is generally the neighbors who go to help, no one will go to the town to invite a cook, only a large family will invite it, and our farmer does not have this rule. It's just that the daughter-in-law of his family wants to marry, and the conditions of her mother's family are also good, and the aunt doesn't want to be looked down upon by her in-laws, and she wants to slaughter pigs and chickens.

You say that how can we eat those good things often in our rural areas! As long as it can be cooked, it doesn't matter if it's good or not. We usually make less of these chickens, ducks and fish, so we don't dare to cook, if it is unpalatable and makes others laugh, it is not a loss of face for the host's family. ”

"And how did they know I could make meat dishes?" Miao Miao was very puzzled, except for Qiuyue and An Niang, she rarely visited the door, and she hadn't made this meat dish a few times.

"Didn't you send food to my house last time, it happened that the aunt next door was visiting my house, she tasted it and said it was delicious, it is estimated that she mentioned it to the people in the village, and this reached the ears of Qinghe Niang, so I asked me to ask you to help with this."

"I also want to help, but I haven't cooked a big pot of dishes, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep busy!"

"That's okay, someone will help you get these things, you just need to point out on the side, you don't have to do it."

Miao Miao hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, it's all from the villagers, I will definitely help if I can." ”

"Chunmiao, I know you'll agree, but I won't let you work in vain, Qinghe Niang can say, I'll give you a salary, fifty wen a day, but you can get her house to cook a dish tomorrow, let her taste it first."

"This is no problem, otherwise on the day of the banquet, you will find that the dishes are not in your taste, and you will suffer!"

"No, it won't!" Li Shi is much more confident than Miao Miao, "Your craftsmanship is nothing to say, it's not me bragging, I can't find a person in the entire Shangwang Village who cooks better than you, I believe Qinghe Niang will definitely have no opinion." ”

"Sister-in-law, you can coax me, my craft is okay to eat at home, how can I be on the table, that is, you don't dislike me."

Li Shi disagreed when he heard it, "Brother and sister, what I said is the truth, if you don't believe it, you go and ask my mother-in-law, you see that every time you send food, those Tao children in our family have to eat two big bowls of rice." My mother-in-law also said that if you send it a few more times, the house will be empty by those hairy children! ”

"Oh, then I have to send less in the future, otherwise your family will really be poor, and the second aunt will not be able to come to my house, and the feather duster will whip me!"

When Li Shi heard this, he smiled and said, "No, don't send anything in the future!" ”

"That's not possible, I still want to see how those half-sized sons of your family eat his old son poor!" Miao Miao also joked.

"Brother and sister, I didn't even notice that you were so bad-minded."

"No, it's not too late for you to find out!"

The two women laughed for a while, and then Li said: "I've been here for a while, there is still a lot of work to be done at home, I'll go home first, I'll come back tomorrow afternoon, and take you to Qinghe's house, don't you think?" ”

"Cheng, sister-in-law, I will listen to your arrangement!"
