After eating at Brother Jishan's house, he was dragged to Brother Yongsheng's house together, and then the eldest brother went to Brother Yongchang's house and Steward Wu's side and didn't plan to go to other people's houses to pay New Year's greetings. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

I didn't go to Jiquan's brother's house because I didn't want to please some people, and I didn't want him to be embarrassed. Brother Dashan and Brother Dahe only have juniors at home, and they don't need to run at home, and these are the only ones who can be regarded as diligent in the past year.

There are comings and goings, and these families have also come to their side, and the family is so busy until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

This is also the busiest year for their family in so many years, in addition to going to the ancestral hall according to the time said by the grandfather, each family stays in the fasting house on weekdays, and if they can't go out, they don't have to go to relatives, most of them are visiting each other.

The eldest brother, second brother, and third brother in the house were copying books, and after the injury on the eldest sister's face was healed, she took over the work of cooking at home and was cooking at this time, she was a big idler and had nothing to do.

"Yue'er, what is your eldest sister doing inside? Why is it so fragrant! "The one who asked her was Zhang Xiaohui, the daughter of Brother Haisheng's family, who was not familiar with her before, and came to their house during the New Year's greetings, and then dealt with it a few times to know what kind of character this is.

Zhang Xiaohui saw that she didn't care, so she stepped forward and opened the curtain to go inside.

Zhang Yue'er took the first step in, put the two meat dishes that the eldest sister had just burned and the hot white flour steamed buns into the space, and stood on the side.

"Xiaohui, why did you come in, the smell of oil smoke here is heavy and small, go outside!"

I looked at a bowl of scrambled eggs and a stewed radish on the stove, and looked at the covered pot.

"Yueyao, what are you doing in this pot? It smells so good, can you show me? ”

"I didn't do anything, I just made dumplings for Yue'er alone, and they were just cooked."

As soon as I heard that it was dumplings, I rushed to open the lid on the top.

"This is the dumpling I ate at your house last time? My grandfather also likes to eat, his old man's wind and cold has not been good, and there is no taste in his mouth, can you pack some for me and take it back when you are ready? ”

"I'm afraid this won't work, you see that there are only about a dozen of them cooked, all of which are specially made for Yue'er alone, but there is a large plate of stewed radishes, do you want to put more on them?"

"I can't finish it in more than ten months! You can put more in the pot. I'll come over later, and I don't need this turnip, I have it at home. After saying that, he lifted the curtain and left.

"Eldest sister, don't let me take more food out to cook as usual, you are reluctant to eat, why do you rely on her every time. said it was left for her grandfather, but most of them didn't go to her belly. I've given it again and again, and I'm still addicted! Anyway, I don't give it, I'm just stingy. ”

"Yueyao, is the daughter of Brother Haisheng's family coming over again?" Zhang Jiahang, who heard the movement in the house, walked in.

"Big brother, that Zhang Xiaohui said that Quan Shengbo has no appetite and asked the eldest sister to cook more dumplings and wait to come and get them, the person has already left." Zhang Yue'er sued.

"Yue'er, let your eldest sister pretend. Yueyao, there are ten in the pot, you pretend to be five, don't cook more this time, if it's too little, you will say that there are no dumplings at home. After the month, the food is hidden, and now there is a disaster outside, and the grain planted last winter is afraid that it will not be much this year, and all families have begun to eat tightly in the past few days, and we must also be more restrained. ”

"Don't bother, big brother. In the future, I would sit outside while you were cooking, and when I saw someone coming, I would change my food, just like today. You see, I have hidden and changed all these things that my eldest sister just made. ”

"It's better to pay more attention. Yue'er, you take it in, there is still a smell of meat outside. In this way, I will do what Yue'er just said, but in the future, I will make a meat dish for one person per month at each meal and leave it outside, so that it will be easy to explain. ”

"Got it, big brother. The dumplings in the pot are ready, I'll pack one and send it over first. Yue'er, go to the house with the eldest brother to collect the paper and pencils, and set the table for dinner. ”

"Eldest sister, I'm with you."

"No, I don't. Don't think I don't know what your idea is, you can't tell Brother Haisheng about this. Anyway, it's just a little food, and we can't make a discord, and when we move home in a few days, everything will be fine. ”

"Listen to your eldest sister, Yue'er."

"Okay."

Haisheng's daughter-in-law saw Yueyao coming over with a bowl and knew that it was the dumplings that her daughter had mentioned to her.

"Yueyao, why did you bring food over again? Blame the embarrassment. My old man has a good mouth again today! ”

"Sister-in-law Haisheng, I didn't pack much today, there are only a few dumplings left at home, half of them are left for Yue'er, and half for Quan Shengbo to taste."

Seeing that there were only a few dumplings lying in most of the soup in the bowl, Haisheng's daughter-in-law's face stiffened, and she pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "The dumplings are gone, are there any meat buns from last time?" That omelet will do the trick too! Yueyao, it's not that my sister-in-law is greedy for your family's food, it's really that the family's food is tight, the old man's illness has dragged on for so many days, if he doesn't eat well, I'm afraid there won't be many days! ”

"Sister-in-law Haisheng, it's not that I don't give it, it's that our family's food is also tight, and we eat better in the first few days of the New Year. My family Yue'er's body is weaker, and the fine grain and meat at home are tightly packed for her, and there is not much left, and the food at home does not know how long it can last, so she points to moving home into the mountains to think about it! ”

"Mother, bring me the bowl to grandpa, don't let it get cold. Yueyao, thank you for sending it, next time if you have food to deliver, tell me not to come in person. If my father knows that I asked you for it, he will definitely scold me and my mother, you go back first, and I will return the bowl to you later. ”

"Alright, I'll go back first."

Seeing Zhang Yueyao leaving, Haisheng's daughter-in-law took her daughter to her house.

"Hui'er, don't eat them all, leave a few for your brother!"

"Mother, how can you stay when there are only so many in total? This time, I can't give it to my grandfather at all, if I leave it for my brother, how can we explain it if he asks? When my father finds out, we will have to be scolded. ”

"Alright, alright, wash the dishes and send them back when you're done. When you were over there before, what were the meals they cooked for noon? The food on New Year's Day was so good, much better than what our family prepared, and now I don't believe it when I say that I am short of food. ”

"I've seen it, except for the ten dumplings in the pot, a large plate of stewed radish, a plate of scrambled eggs, and then coarse grain steamed buns, it can't catch up with what our family eats now."

Zhang Xiaohui finished the five dumplings in the bowl and drank half of the soup.

"Mother, I still have half of the soup left for you."

"You kid, let you eat it all and really finish it, and you won't leave one for your mother!"

"I haven't eaten enough, how can I leave it for you."

"Hui'er, what you just said is true? Is it possible to hide good meals? ”

"No way, I suddenly lifted the curtain and went in, and Yueyao didn't have time to hide inside." (To be continued.) )
