Chapter 56

Pear Blossom was awkward for a while before nodding and admitting that what Sun said made sense, but it made sense, and she still didn't like Xiaoting.

It's like she doesn't like the spikes, no matter what she does, she doesn't like them.

Xiaoting walked to the second child's house with rabbit meat, and when she met people she didn't know on the way, they all made fun of her, which made her blush.

However, there are also those who are not eye-catching, and there are a few words of mockery openly and secretly, but Xiaoting didn't hear it. She was in a hurry to find her second child.

As a result, he didn't dare to go in when he arrived at the door of the second child's house, what if he didn't want to marry her? The rumors have already spread, is it possible to cut your hair and become a sister-in-law?

After waiting for about half an hour, the third child came out grabbing his hair. He was so upset that he couldn't figure out why his mother would say that?

Xiao Ting shouted softly: "The third brother." ”

The third child looked up and saw that it was Xiaoting, and his face was a little unpleasant. Isn't his mother fainting because of this girl, and she dares to come to their house at this time?

He asked impatiently, "You have something to do with me?" I'm busy without looking. ”

"I want to find the second brother, you ...... Can you help me get him out? Just a short time. ”

The third child looked at her carefully, the girl looked beautiful and beautiful, why was she so shameless? A mouthful of a second brother, the name is really kissable. He listened to the second brother tell him as it was, and his heart was very responsive.

immediately didn't talk to her in vain, waved his hand and said, "My second brother went to my uncle's house, and my cousin is about to celebrate his birthday." They have been married since childhood-otherwise, why is my second brother still indecisive when he is so old? ”

Xiao Ting's eyes widened in disbelief, and she said, "Impossible! My mother also said that the second brother first told a girl in Shangzhuang Village to kiss her......"

"Hmph, do you believe this? The girl from Shangzhuang Village showed me something, but the girl and I didn't agree, so it didn't work out. When did you become my second brother? Hurry up, don't let me see you again, your old Li family doesn't welcome you! ”

The third child didn't pay much attention to Xiaoting, and continued to walk to the north of the village, he wanted to go to see Pear Blossom and talk to Pear Blossom. He wanted to prove his mother wrong.

Xiaoting was stunned for a while, waited for a while, and saw that it was getting late, so she walked home.

Mrs. Dong snatched the basket in her hand, and saw that it contained the rabbit that was missing during the day, and pointed at Xiaoting's forehead and scolded: "It's really capable, I know how to make up for my mother-in-law's house before I pass the door!" Don't be ashamed, tsk, people don't want your rabbit? ”

Wang heard Mrs. Dong's words in the house, and hurriedly came out and shouted: "Mother! Xiao Tie is looking for you. ”

When Mrs. Dong saw that her daughter-in-law had come out, she closed her mouth and walked into the house. There's no way, who made this daughter-in-law powerful, she offended herself and couldn't even eat, and the old man's son was on her side.

Wang stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Ting's hand, it was very cold to the touch, and asked in surprise: "Ting'er, what's wrong?" Are you freezing? ”

Xiaoting came back to her senses and said: "Mother, I met Li Laosan next morning, he said that his second brother and the girl from his uncle's family had already made a marriage, and the last time he went to Shangzhuang Village, he saw the third child." ”

Wang was stunned at first glance, "Impossible, I inquired about this matter clearly." It is impossible for the second child to marry the girl of his uncle's family. Don't worry, let my mother inquire again! ”

Xiaoting nodded, but she believed the words of the third child in her heart, and she couldn't eat or sleep well for several days.

Wang first went to the matchmaker to inquire, but the Jia family thought that the daughter-in-law found by the boss was not good, so he had to find it himself, and he didn't know the matchmaker. Wang inquired for a long time and didn't find anything, and his heart was half cold. If that's the case, then wouldn't she have harmed her daughter!

Songbai and the others rented a yard on the island, and the three of them started a business incognito.

After two days of buying clothes in the ruined temple, the three of them discussed what to do in the future. Xiaoshun is the only one left in the house, and it doesn't matter where he goes. Xiongzi didn't want to go home, he was boiling now.

Songbai estimated the silver in his hand, and more than forty taels was enough to make a deal. If he goes home now, he will not be reconciled - not to mention that he has not earned a cent, and he has lost most of it.

After summing up, they were called brothers and made a small deal. On the other hand, he secretly inquired about Du Dangjia and the water thieves.

There are many people doing business on the island, and there are also many people in Jiaxing. Xiongzi is a habitual person, and it didn't take long for him to become familiar with the local boaters.

The person who ran the boat was only in his forties, but he was worth a lot, and he could get a glimpse of the silk he wore and the jade jade he was wearing.

Xiong Zi wanted to run a boat with him, but Xiaoshun knocked on his head a few times, "You really haven't made enough boats?" We almost died at sea, you know? I strongly disagree! ”

As soon as he remembered that he still had a lot of buddies he knew and now didn't know whether they were alive or dead, he was very anxious! Not to mention getting him to run the boat again.

Songbai thought for a moment, and he didn't quite approve of running the boat. It's not because he's afraid, it's just that he thinks Du Dangjia's behavior is too weird, but he has been running in Qinglian Town for many years, why did he collude with water thieves?

Whether Du Dangjia really colluded with the water thieves was completely speculated by him. It is impossible for the water thieves to kill both Du Dangjia and Fang Dangjia, but to keep their lives. That's weird.

"Let's wait and see, we are still doing the current business, and we can make a lot of money in a day."

Xiong Zi was a little unconvinced, "If it's to earn this money, I might as well mix in Qinglian Town!" Besides, the food here is unpalatable to death, and I can't eat the black seaweed raw fish all day long! ”

Songbai pursed his lips and smiled, he was not used to eating. If the orange is here, I wonder if she can get used to it?

Be sure to bring some back for her to try when you get back!

On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, the dough is haired, and the cake is steamed and the decals are appliquéd. Huahua is a New Year's painting, a spring couplet, and a window flower. Chen and Sun cut the window grilles when they had nothing to do, and there were a lot of various styles.

Beating cakes is to steam rice cakes, but also to steam bean buns, jujube flowers, fried sugar cakes, fried twist flowers, croquettes, fried oil cakes. Everything to eat in the first month of the year must be made.

The bean paste filling in the bean bun is to peel the red beans, break them up, boil them, and stir-fry them in oil. After steaming in a steamer, take a bite of the white and tender skin, the filling inside is sweet and not greasy, soft and sweet.

Jujube flowers, also known as jujube cakes, make the dough into petals, and put red dates on it, which is very festive.

The fried twist flower is hinge-shaped, with two kinds of sweet and salty flavors, golden color, crispy and fragrant. Children often pick it up and eat it as soon as it is fried, and they are reluctant to put it down when the hot ones change from their left hand to their right hand.

Fried sugar cake is the most expensive sugar, and it is only eaten once a year. Gently bite into the corner, the melted sugar in it flows out like a soup dumpling, and the tongue touches the sweet heat, which really warms my heart.

Jia was lying on the bed, Xiuxiu was a bad worker, and the oranges and pear blossoms planned to steam out their bean buns as soon as they were combined, which was also a personal favor.

Although the sheep that Pig Li picked for her is not large, she can squeeze out two large bowls of milk a day. There is still a surplus for one person to drink a bowl, and after only a few days, she feels that Chen's Sun family's complexion is better.

Chen couldn't drink it at first, so she could barely drink two sips of the oranges when she put the wild chrysanthemums stored in the cellar and boiled them, and added preserved fruits such as mountain red to them.

Sun joked that she didn't know how to be blessed in the midst of happiness, and Chen also felt that she was becoming more and more like a landlord's wife, where was there such a precious thing as goat's milk in the past! She still drinks it every day.

Orange explained with a smile: "There are also people who are pregnant and don't look good at eating, and besides, some people just can't smell milk." But this thing is still very good, and the ninja has to drink some. In this way, the younger brother born is white and fat. ”

For this sentence to be white and fat, Chen can drink two more sips every day in the future.

The next day, the two went to Xiuxiu's house, but they didn't think that Ximei was also there, and she was arguing with Jia's family.

It turned out that she was like an orange, and she wanted to come and help. Jia Shi didn't want to bother others, so he struggled to get up and do it himself. Xiuxiu on the side blamed herself, she thought that if she did more work usually, she wouldn't have done anything at this time.

Pear Blossom was afraid that it would not be beautiful for them to fight any longer, so she said directly: "Auntie, it just so happens that I and Orange, plus Ximei's sister-in-law, one person will be less steamed." Don't work in the fields. ”

Jia Shi patted her hand and said, "Good boy, your family is also very busy, where can I use you to help?" Let's go home! ”

Orange finally knew where the stubbornness of the second and third children was inherited, and stabbed Xiuxiu and said: "Auntie, you don't care, let's go back first." Xiuxiu, take care of your mother. ”

Ximei looked at the two of them with a smile, "I've been very busy these days, and I haven't had time to buy thread." It seems that I will have to wait for the spring to come and learn. ”

"Don't worry, you can wear it for a while in spring. Come back to us when you have time. It's just that there are only three people in your family, can you get busy? ”

Ximei's family is her, Dogan, and Dogdan's father. If there is a mother-in-law, Ximei will not be able to dress up in the sky.

"Yes, I'll make noodles, and you can roll the skin. Haha, he's also very capable! It's your family, don't be tired. "The main reason is that she is too busy to work alone at home, and the dog also feels sorry for her.

Rika looked at Ximei with some envy, the people in the village who said she was not good must be envious of her! Brother Dog is so painful, and he can also do housework.

Orange asked curiously, "Don't you think dogs...... Isn't there a manhood? Helping my daughter-in-law work......"

"No, I'm going to find one like a dog in the future! This is the daughter-in-law, doesn't Sister Orange want my brother to help you work? ”

Orange was silent for a while, "As long as your brother can come back safely." ”

Brother Songbai, hurry up, come back......
