39. Mao Xuewang
CHAPTER XXXIX
Sun answered in the courtyard and beckoned Pear Blossom to come over to eat together, and didn't take Qi's words to heart. She chatted with the Huang family a lot on weekdays, and she knew Qi's temperament, she was unforgiving on the lips, but she was not bad in her heart.
Otherwise, by severing the mother-son relationship, the Huang family would not be able to agree to Uncle Chen marrying the Qi family. Qi is also a fierce character, if Huang doesn't agree for a day, she won't marry for a day - her mother has told her several relatives.
The pines and cypresses can't come to eat, although they are married, the rules are also very big, and they can't meet these days. However, due to the special situation, the two families turned a blind eye, and they also quietly held hands and talked.
After eating, Yanzi and Huzi followed her into her house, and the two villains couldn't put it down when they saw the pillow. You hugged for a while, I hugged for a while, and then I simply played the house, and Huzi was a little awkward.
Huzi didn't want to play anymore after playing for a while, and climbed on top of the orange to talk to her. Swallow has been quietly playing by herself there, Orange thinks she has some slight autism, Qi Shi said that she is also like this at home.
If you are autistic, it will be difficult to manage, and if you marry someone, you will also suffer in your in-law's family, and even the Huang family prefers the likable Huzi and his sister Yingzi.
"Sister, the last time Hammer came to my house, he was clamoring to find you, but my mother didn't bring him over." Huzi thinks that his mother is good to him now, and even if the hammer bullies him, he will say that the hammer used to let him endure it.
Orange almost forgot about the ignorant little kid, what the child looks like is closely related to adults, he dares to bully Huzi all the time, even if he knows that it is nothing to bully.
"What is he doing clamoring to see me? I don't like him, and he doesn't cook anything for him when he comes. ”
Huzi pursed his lips and smiled, "Brother Hammer wants you to go to their house to cook for them, and he said that what you make is even better than Donglai Restaurant!" ”
For this, Hammer refused to eat a meal. His father didn't agree, and he couldn't even cry. Or his mother felt sorry for him, and drove the carriage to Mao's house, wanting to say that Mao's let oranges come to their house to cook, only cook every day, and give 300 yuan a month.
She thinks that this condition is very generous, a cook is only 500 yuan a month, their family is in charge of food and housing, and they are still relatives, where to find such a good thing!
She didn't know that the owner of Donglai Restaurant came to ask for oranges for a tael of silver a month, so she didn't move.
Huang was not at home, and Mao figured it out again, not to mention that Orange's temper is not small - she has seen Orange several times and wants to hit a hammer! If you go back, if something happens, her younger sister and sister-in-law are not human beings inside and out.
Hammer thought that his wish had come true, and although his father did not agree, he did not stop his mother from coming. happily reluctantly ate a meal cooked by Mao's, and when it came to the next day, Mao's told the situation, the sister-in-law's family loved her daughter very much, and she couldn't look down on the three hundred dollars.
When the hammer heard this, he cried, and the yard rolled around, making Mao at a loss. Huzi entered the house and handed his favorite cloth tiger to the hammer, but the hammer was swung to the ground.
Huzi was aggrieved and wanted to cry, so he held back stiffly, tears rolling in his eyes. stood aggrieved and didn't say a word, and finally Yingzi came out and carried him into the house.
No one could scream the hammer, and finally he was tired of crying before he was held in his mother's arms. His mother also added a blockage in her heart, didn't she just know how to cook, why did she put it up, and even Mao's complained.
Finally sent the two away, Mao sighed, went into the house and comforted Huzi in his arms, and spread an egg cake for him at night.
Huzi has been grinning every day for the past few months, and although his grandmother is not at home, his mother sometimes cooks food for him. The eldest sister also made him new clothes to wear when he was free.
Mao Shi just pushed the door in, listened to it, and explained to Orange with some embarrassment: "Hammer is spoiled, he likes to eat the food you cook, it's just ...... Alas, don't be surprised! ”
"What did the eldest aunt say, when the hammer comes to play, I'll make something to eat for him." The premise is that she has to look at him well.
"In a blink of an eye, you are married, I have nothing to do at home to embroider a few purses for you, and I can't help much. Songbai is an old child, and Xiongzi has to take care of him! "What she can't worry about now is the bear, she has to go to sea, is that a joke?
Orange saw that Mao's hair was hidden in white hair, and he looked a few years older. The mother of the child is worried, how can she not be worried? At home, he must make clothes for Xiongzi every day, lest he be cold and hot outside, so he took time to embroider a purse for her.
How can this affection not move her, let alone the purse over there in the old courtyard, no one will come.
"Auntie, don't worry, they have their own natural appearance, and they will definitely be able to come back and honor you!"
On the day of the appointment, nine tables were set up, and all the people who were close to them were invited. Yesterday, the Mao family and the Qi family had all arranged their things, and she was delicate today, so she couldn't go to the kitchen.
Chen held his big belly, and the smile on his face did not stop. In a blink of an eye, the daughters are so old, and they are all at the age of marriage. When I was first born, I was just that, and I don't know what this is like in my belly?
The green bricks and green tiles family sat at a table, the pig-killing Li family sat at a table, and the village chief's family, Lao Huang, Chen's mother's family, and the women in the village who were friends with Sun's Chen family also came to see the excitement, and the children were running around, waiting to sprinkle sugar. When it was time for the banquet to open, the people of the old courtyard were late.
Old man Chi came in with a gloomy face, and as soon as he came, he saw that it was the Huang family sitting on the main seat, and his face was pulled down. It stands to reason that this position should be the old man Chi sitting, and they waited left and right to wait for them to come, for fear of missing the good time, so they invited the Huang family to the seat.
Mrs. Chi was not polite, and put down the basket in her hand, "Mother-in-law, the old man and I are not dead yet!" I want to sit here and let your grandson get married! ”
Chen frowned, this is her daughter's big day, what do you say is that she can't die! Whose granddaughter is married, but the grandmother can't come to help? They're good, the guests are all seated before they come! Uncle Chen and Uncle Chen were afraid that the auspicious time would be delayed, so they woke up on the third watch day and came over at night.
A large group of people stood at the door and didn't look good, so Sun came over to play a round and asked their juniors to sit down first. Orange protected the Chen family behind, and she hadn't forgotten how Jì Chi Liang pushed them!
The Huang family was about to stand up when he saw them coming, but he was also angry when he was troubled by Mrs. Chi, even if his daughter suffered from this old woman for half her life, her granddaughter still had to bear it? When is it a head?
The Mao family and the Qi family had long been standing next to her on the left and right, and they would not be afraid if they did it. Huang felt a lot of comfort in his heart, and these two daughters-in-law did not suffer in vain. But she didn't forget what day it was, pressed the breath in her heart, got up and gave it to Old Man Chi.
The village chief came to show his face at this time, "Sit down, Brother Chi's clothes today are very new, and they are very spiritual." ”
Old man Chi was wearing clothes made of cloth bought by the Chen family earlier, and he was pointed out by the village chief and his face was a little unbearable, so he pulled Mrs. Chi, who still wanted to make noise, to sit down.
No matter how you say it, it's a good day for her granddaughter, and the noise makes outsiders see the excitement, just close the door and say something.
Chi Dazhu carefully protected the Chen family, he was very angry in his heart, and his face was red. Last time during the Mid-Autumn Festival, his father said that Lao Huang would not let Lao Huang save Chen's because he was afraid of bad luck. It's a good day for his daughter, so why is there a fuss.
He shouldn't have been afraid of their face and invited them here, anyway, no matter how good he did, he wouldn't fall into the eyes of Old Man Chi and Mrs. Chi.
Seeing that everyone was seated, Qi and Mao went into the kitchen and brought out the dishes one by one. The two families made money, and they wanted to do a good job of fixing their relatives, and the meals were sufficient, so they ordered a whole pig from the Li family, who killed the pig.
Killing the pig Li half sold and half gave away picked the fattest one, which also cost a lot of money. The always thrifty Chen is still distressed, and she plans to raise a few little pigs at home for the New Year.
The chickens in the family suffered, but the oranges were reluctant, she took the time to feed them little by little, and she could accept killing one or two, killing so many at once It felt like the yard was empty.
When killing pigs, there is a large pot of pig blood alone, and the more the blood is cooked, the more tender it becomes, and the taste is getting fresher and fresher, and it is best to eat it while scalding. Add pig heart, pig lungs, fat sausage, and chili pepper to it, and the lively pot is full of comfort.
Chen didn't let her do it, in her concept, oranges are a guest today, don't do the stove and don't do housework, and only when you marry into her in-law's family can she enjoy happiness.
Orange spent a long time saying that she couldn't move her mother, so she had to teach Pear Blossom to make it on the side. Pear Blossom has cooked so many times with the oranges, and she understands a little.
Pepper, pepper, ginger and garlic are stir-fried over low heat until fragrant, and then boiled with soup, remove the residue, add sugar and vinegar. Cut the pig's blood into strips, slice the pig's heart and lungs, and put it in the pot.
What makes her regret is that there are no bean sprouts, originally there were people in the village who sent them, but the sprouts that came out were all bitter, and not many people ate them. But if you can add a dish in winter, someone will still send it.
When the pine and cypress were sent away, she also took out some beans and sent some sprouts without bitterness, so that her mother could supplement some nutrition and change her tricks.
Although there are no bean sprouts, Mao Xuewang is still very fragrant, and it is not worse than the popularity of chicken. The soup is red and bright, arousing people's appetite, the blood tofu is delicate and tender, the pork heart and pig lungs inside have a strong flavor and thick flavor, the vegetable leaves are numb, and the bean skin has a certain toughness when biting.
Mrs. Chi's mouth was full of oil, and before the banquet began, she dragged the chicken leg down. Old man Chi coughed, and Mrs. Chi not only did not restrain herself, but also gave Old Man Chi a blank look.
This is her granddaughter's engagement feast, what's wrong with her eating two chicken legs? Even if you take it all home, no one can say anything.
Uncle Chen pretended not to see it, but Uncle Chen had anger in his eyes, who is this? His sister suffers from this kind of anger all day long, and no matter how much she heard it before, it is better to take a real look.
Yanzi said coldly, "Grandma, I want to eat the chicken leg in your hand." She tilted her head in a milky voice, and no one would believe that she did it on purpose.
The table was quiet, and the mother of the blue bricks on the table next door couldn't help but speak: "Sister Chi, are you still eating with a child?" I'm blushing for you......"
Mrs. Chi sneered, pretending not to hear. Qi patted the swallow gently, "What chicken legs are you grabbing with grandma?" Grandma has never eaten anything good in her life, and when we get home, we will eat it openly! ”
Old man Chi couldn't listen anymore, grabbed a chicken leg and handed it to Yanzi, "Your grandmother gave you chicken legs to eat." ”
Chi Daliang's daughter-in-law, Xiao Zhou, is stuffing meat into her mouth, and the blood is even more frequent. Chi Pozi was angry, knocked the back of her hand with chopsticks, and scolded in her mouth: "Eat, eat, eat, know how to eat!" Why don't you cast a good tire! ”
This refers to the scolding swallows of Sang Huai, how old are they and still care about young children, and the people who sit on them can't stand it, they are friends with Chi Dazhu's family or Songbai's family, and they don't look down on the people in the old courtyard.
Orange didn't care about this, what she paid attention to was that Yanzi was not autistic, but just a little boring, and the key was that she was very smart.
Songbai was wearing brand-new clothes, lining people more handsomely, with a faint smile hooked at the corner of his mouth, after today, the orange is his Zhao family, Zhao Chi's orange.
I don't care about the moths from those people in the old courtyard during the banquet, and let them make trouble, sooner or later they will look good.
