Chapter 19: There's a sissy at home

Not long after sending my brother away, the sky began to snow heavily. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info At first, it was a small grain of broken rice, and after a while, it turned into pear petals flying all over the sky.

In Mrs. Wu's eyes, all the little snowflakes have turned into porcelain dolls with white wings, snow-white little faces and snow-white bodies, naughty and playful in the air. One moment he stood on the treetops and danced ballet with his little hands, and the next he went under the eaves and covered his eyes to hide and seek. They ran towards Mrs. Wu's arms with sweet and mischievous smiles, laughing and calling for their mother. Mrs. Wu leaned against the door and watched fascinated, and she didn't even notice that the two people who came in at the gate.

"Madam, why are you so fascinated?" It was Wu Duo, and there was a young man with permed hair and a windbreaker, with delicate facial features, white skin and red skin, looking at Mrs. Wu with a smile.

Mrs. Wu collected her thoughts and looked at the person who came, looking at the thin skin and tender meat, at first glance she thought that Wu Duo had brought a pretty daughter-in-law back, looking like a beauty, but after a closer look, she found that she was tall and burly like a man, no, it was a man, with an Adam's apple.

Mrs. Wu chuckled, thinking to herself why a big man still permed his hair and wiped his cheeks, Wu Duo wouldn't have picked up a neurotic from there. Mother Wang heard Wu Duo's voice and came out of the back room, and greeted Wu Duo and the visitors into the house with a smile. When Wu Duo saw Wang's mother, the smile on his face froze suddenly, and he hesitated for a few seconds before entering the house with the perm man.

"Wuduo, why are you here on this snowy day?" Wang's mother asked while making tea and pouring water for Wu Duo and the people who came,

Wu Duo didn't look at Wang's mother, and said to Mrs. Wu: "This is the boss on the construction site where I work, this is not here to catch up with our snow, he has never seen snow in the south, and is willing to let me take it out to see the snow scene." I didn't bring him to our village, we just went to the back mountain and came back to pass by you, and he said that he liked your stone house and wanted to come and see it. It just so happens that I haven't eaten lunch yet, I'm hungry, so I'm thinking about making you something to eat. Look, it's the food and a little gift that our boss bought you at the commissary. After speaking, he put the big bag in his hand next to Wang's mother.

The visitor smiled and said to Mrs. Wu, "Hello, excuse me, your house is very beautiful and appropriate." ”

Mrs. Wu wrapped the coat wrapped around her shoulders and said with a smile: "Don't bother, don't bother." It's rare, it's the first time for my family to come to the big boss. Or Wuduo, you lead it, come out of breath, okay, you drink water, I'll make you something to eat. ”

Mrs. Wu turned around and went to the stove room, and Wu Duo followed. "Why is your mother here?"

Mrs. Wu glanced at Wu Duo and said, "What's the matter, my mother can't come to my house yet?" ”

Wu Duo scratched his head and hurriedly clarified: "No, that's not what it means, it's curiosity." ”

Mrs. Wu said while cleaning up the pots: "I'm pregnant, my mother came to see me and take care of me, so that someone would have nothing to harass me when they were drunk!" ”。 Yes, yes, I have to be taken care of when I am pregnant, I am really stupid, Wu Duo thought.

Mrs. Wu slapped Wu Duo on the arm and said, "What kind of boss, a big man still perms his hair, and he is half a man and not a woman." Talking about the mother's mother, I thought you brought a daughter-in-law back. ”

Wu Duo stared at Mrs. Wu sullenly and said, "It's good to be pregnant, it's good to be pregnant, Wu Da is so happy to know it." What a half-man is not a woman, people are fashionable, you don't see the big black trench coat he wears, one piece is enough for my salary for a year! Wu Duo took the cooking utensils from Mrs. Wu's hand and turned back to the main house.

In winter, the stove room is too cold, and it is too troublesome to go up the mountain to chop firewood, so people are cooking and stir-frying on the stove where the main house is heated, so that it can not only heat but also save firewood.

The visitor looked at Mrs. Wu and Wu Duo with doubts on their faces, but they didn't ask much. He politely nodded at Mrs. Wu and smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Xu Ming." What is your last name, ma'am? ”

Mrs. Wu smiled and said, "Okay, you sit, sit and drink tea, and the meal will be ready in a while." Oh, my surname is Wang, but you can call me Madame. The visitor nodded with a smile and shook his head helplessly, as if there were a lot of people who wanted to understand but didn't understand. Wang's mother made tea for the guests, and then moved a Mazha to the side. He didn't speak much with his blank eyes, as if he was thinking about something. Mrs. Wu always felt that as long as Wu Duo and Wang's mother were together, the atmosphere was particularly wrong, and she couldn't say what was wrong. This Wuduo is also really, how to get outsiders to her house, if it weren't for the fact that he is willing to work and help herself a lot for a while, she must have unceremoniously invited them out.

Although Wu Duo and Mrs. Wu have known each other for a long time, they rarely eat the food cooked by Mrs. Wu, a few plates of vegetarian dishes, a steamed pork and half a pot of rice, and the plate will be at the bottom after a while.

Xu Ming was full of praise for Mrs. Wu's craftsmanship, and praised Mrs. Wu's vinegared shredded potatoes for being crispy and refreshing, the cold salad with golden needles was smooth and tendony, the steamed pork was soft and glutinous, and the rice was steamed with moderate softness and hardness. Bala Bala Wen Zou Zou praised a lot, in short, Mrs. Kuawu made ordinary dishes with an unusual taste, and her cooking skills were good.

In fact, everyone in the village knows that Mrs. Wu cooks a good meal. Sometimes in the village, Wu Da was called to keep accounts for people, and Mrs. Wu went to help cook the dishes. But although Mrs. Wu can cook and cook deliciously, she can't be a master chef. The master must be an adult man, and a woman cannot do it, and it is unlucky for a woman to be in charge. Therefore, it is usually found that an adult man is in charge, and Mrs. Wu is on the side to command. What kind of fire should this be, how hot the oil should be, when to put salt, and how much should be put in various spices.

"What is this, Madame's haggis soup is a must." Wu Duo replied, "We can't find anything better in the whole town than Madame making mutton soup." ”

"Oh, then, it seems that I should visit a few more times to get a taste of Madame's handiwork." Xu Ming held the hot tea in his hand and sniffed it deeply and smiled: "This tea is also different, there is sweetness in the slight bitterness and a faint floral fragrance, this bitterness is not the same as the bitterness of ordinary tea, after drinking it, the aftertaste is long, the tip of the tongue and throat are very comfortable, as if you are on the prairie, there is a hint of grass mixed with the fragrance of flowers under the tasting, I don't know what kind of tea this is." ”

"Look at what you said, hold all the wild vegetable leaves to the sky, you cultural people just speak differently, it's really nice. It is the dried tender bitter herbs and dandelions, and some wild chrysanthemum rice, dried ginger shreds, drinking to understand the greasy rice and cure the sore throat. Mrs. Wu looked at Xu Ming's eyes seriously and responded, looking carefully, this man is really handsome, with slender eyes and a small nose, and a faint fragrance all over his body. It was the first time for Mrs. Wu to see such a handsome and delicate man, yes, exquisite, Mrs. Wu finally searched for a word in her mind that suited the man in front of her. It's so exquisite, like someone who came out of TV.

"Wow, that's amazing, can you give me a little?"

"Okay, no problem, but it's not good in this season now, I don't have much to dry, Wuhan University went to the south and brought it to him, and when it starts spring next year, I'll pick more and give it to you." Mrs. Wu didn't expect that the people in the city would be interested in this big wild vegetable leaf.

"I'm really sorry to bother you so much for the first time."

"Boss, let's go back early, see that the snow is getting heavier and heavier, your car is on the slope of the village entrance, we still have to walk a long way." Our mountain road is not easy to walk. Wu Duo saw that the two of them were chatting more and more hot, and the boss had no intention of leaving, so he reminded.

"Oh, I think I'd better find a hotel to stay in today. I also want to walk around the village, your village has a nice view and good air. I could smell the faint scent of flowers in the snowflakes. ”

"What, where did we get a hotel in this small village, and how could outsiders come to live here?" Wu Duo looked at his boss in disbelief, looking incredulous.

"Well, is there any place to borrow it? It was too unsafe to drive back with such a heavy snowfall, the mountain road itself was difficult to walk, there were too many curves, and I didn't want to risk it. Xu Ming got up and looked at the snow outside the window, it was already six or seven centimeters thick, and the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and there was no intention of stopping.

"Wudo, take the big boss to live at your house. Your home is big, and there is no one else. Mother Wang, who hid in the back room after eating, opened the curtain and walked out, handing Wu Duo a half-new cotton jacket, "This is what Mrs. and Brother wore last year, and I renewed new cotton, you can take it and wear it." ”

"I'm, I can't live there! On such a cold day, I just have a small bed and two quilts, how can our boss sleep, let him sleep on the ground. will freeze to death. Wu Duo didn't reach out to take the cotton clothes, and Wang's mother gently placed it on the table beside him, pushed it in his direction and entered the back room.

"Is there no other house to borrow? I can pay a reasonable accommodation fee, and I can also rent it for a long time, I think the geographical environment here is good, and I want to do a good research and development, I'm afraid I will come often in the future. It's a pity not to enjoy such a nice snow scene. ”

"Otherwise, you will live in the east house of my house, and the beds and bedding will be cleaned up. There is also a small gate to enter and exit the yard alone, which is not inconvenient. Mrs. Wu remembered that the East House that had been cleaned up when Wang's father had an accident had been idle, and there was nothing wrong with renting it out to earn some money.

"Thank you so much, ma'am!" Xu Ming was a little overjoyed and said excitedly: "I'm really in the right place to come here for development." How much rent do you think is appropriate? Budo? ”

"We haven't rented it out, I really don't know." He was a little unhappy that Mrs. Wu let the boss stay overnight, but what could he say, who made his family so poor that he didn't even have more bedding to stay warm up for the boss overnight?

"If you only stay for one night, you will stay for one night, and if you want to rent for a long time, you can count it, just look at it. Let's go, I'll take you to see the room and see what you need, and I'll prepare it for you. ”
