Li Xuemei is not stage frightened, has she done anything heinous, and besides, it is the New Year, even Mrs. Gu can't do anything to herself.

Besides, if you bully yourself every year, it's your turn to be someone else's turn.

With a smile on his face, he handed over the basket in his hand, lifted the cloth, let Old Mrs. Gu take a look, and said, "It's not like I'm thinking about adding a few dishes to the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, so I'm busy at home late." ”

Mrs. Gu originally wanted to use the topic to play, but she swallowed it, looked at the basket, but squeezed a smile out, and said, "Then the old family, you go to the kitchen to help, where is the second family." ”

He also specially instructed: "Divide these dishes into two portions, and save one for tomorrow." ”

Li Xuemei said yes and went out of the door and into the kitchen.

Gu Xiaoying is a big girl, and she also followed Li Xuemei into the kitchen, thinking about helping.

Old Man Gu beckoned Gu Ruhai to sit on the kang, which was an unprecedented treatment.

Gu Ruhai was not polite, so he did it.

Gu Xiaoqing and Gu Xiaojie greeted Old Man Gu honestly and Mrs. Gu: "Grandpa, grandma, good reads();." ”

Old Man Gu smiled and narrowed his eyes and nodded, grabbed a handful of candy and melon seeds from the bowl on the table and stuffed them to Gu Xiaojie and Gu Xiaoqing.

Gu Xiaojie likes candy, and he didn't care about the murderous eyes of the old lady Gu at all, so he put it in his pants pocket.

Old Lady Gu pushed the bowl on the table to Gu Xiaofeng and Gu Xiaomin, and looked at Gu Xiaofeng and Gu Xiaomin with a smile on her face.

Gu Xiaoqing is not a child anymore, and she doesn't have a special liking for these.

just sat on the stool on the side and watched Gu Xiaojie play.

Gu Rushan and Gu Ruhe also arrived, and at this moment, Gu Rushan was also sitting on the edge of the kang, smoking cigarettes one by one.

It was the New Year's gift that Gu Ruhe brought back this year to Old Man Gu.

It is a paper cigarette roll in the county, packaged in boxes and boxes, which is very exquisite, and it is magnanimous to look at.

There are also good-looking patterns on it, Gu Rushan has seen it in Jiang Caifa's pocket, and he knows that it is a good thing that is only smoked by people in the city, so he is not polite, so he asked for a box from the old man, opened it and smoked it.

Gu Ruhe and Xiao Xue sat in the middle of the kang, and Gu Xiaofeng and Gu Xiaomin sat on one side of the two, holding an iron box and playing there.

Seeing Gu Ruhai coming in, Gu Rushan and Gu Ruhe greeted each other: "Big brother, here!" ”

"Big brother, you sit."

There was no more word.

In fact, the three brothers don't usually see each other much, which is really not much.

There is no common topic.

Gu Rushan and Gu Ruhe looked down on Gu Ruhai.

Gu Ruhai didn't know what to say to his two younger brothers.

Old man Gu is in a good mood today, looking at the three sons in front of him, he is very happy, he is older, and he has more expectations for the children around him.

Looking forward to a harmonious life with the family.

Now is probably the good day in Old Man Gu's mind.

Li Xuemei, who was over there, walked into the kitchen and saw Jiang Xiulan with an unhappy face, and the earth-shattering sound of cutting vegetables could be imagined, so you can imagine how annoyed Jiang Xiulan was.

Seeing Li Xuemei, Jiang Xiulan's face drooped, and she counted unceremoniously: "Sister-in-law, it's not my brother and daughter-in-law who said you, you came too early, this is not a rush to eat, I can cook this meal alone." ”

Li Xuemei rolled up her sleeves and began to clean up the dishes that had been prepared, as well as the dishes that had been washed.

Many of them haven't started to do it, and I can think of it, it is estimated that Jiang Xiulan has just arrived.

"Brother and sister, what you said, I didn't prepare it at home, I brought some side dishes to our father and mother, in previous years, I wasn't busy alone, and I didn't see or eat."

Li Xuemei is not ready to continue to get used to Jiang Xiulan, she is not talking about what Jiang Xiulan is going to do, why is she being counted down in a low voice, they are all people's daughters-in-law, Jiang Xiulan has that ability, go to Xiao Xue to vent her anger.

can't bully people who have a backstage, you can bully yourself like this kind of soft glutinous, but it's a pity that the current Li Xuemei is not the original Li Xuemei, if you dare to bully me, I can shoot you back reads();.

So Jiang Xiulan was choked and couldn't reply.

also knew that he was at a loss in previous years, and he knew that Li Xuemei was different now, but he still couldn't help but want to make a raft from the previous convention, which was not to hit the wall again.

I really don't remember.

Li Xuemei took out the four bowls in the basket, divided them in half, and piled the rest into the bowl, put seasonings and boiling water, and put them in the pot to steam.

This is steamed vegetables.

A chicken was killed, but Jiang Xiulan obviously didn't clean it up, and a lot of fine hairs on her body were not plucked clean, so Li Xuemei could only mix a basin of hot and cold water and wash it clean.

It's okay if others don't clean up, but Li Xuemei still has three children at home, Li Xuemei is not willing to eat like this, and if the children go back to get sick, the gains outweigh the losses.

Jiang Xiulan chopped the meat filling unhurriedly over there, which was made of dumplings.

Li Xuemei packed up the dishes at hand, and put on an apron to make dumplings.

Anyway, it's just a few people, and I'll finish it early and go back early.

Jiang Xiulan looked at Gu Xiaoying burning the fire over there, and shouted: "Xiaoying, come and roll the skin, the second aunt's hand hurts a little, and it's not good." ”

Gu Xiaoying was just about to agree, when she saw Li Xuemei's eyes, she immediately died down, her mother is very majestic now, and the family is almost the same.

Li Xuemei rolled up her sleeves and began to mix the dumpling filling with chopsticks, while saying to Jiang Xiulan: "His second aunt, you still roll the skin fast, she has a little child, the fire over there can't be separated from people, there is still a pot of steamed vegetables and stewed fish on the fire, let her watch there, and the two of us will be done with our hands." ”

That means that Gu Xiaoying won't be allowed to come over to help.

Jiang Xiulan was so angry in her heart.

Originally, I thought that I would pull Gu Xiaoying over and roll out the skin by myself, so that I could go to the hall over there to rest, drink some water, eat some peanuts or something, and I didn't plan to come out.

Just waiting to eat ready-made.

This is good, Li Xuemei directly blocked the road.

Don't be lazy.

pouted, and said in a strange voice: "Oh, I haven't seen my sister-in-law make any steamed vegetables in previous years, why are you so particular about it this year." It's not the same when you make money, and there are more tricks. Or we poor people don't have the ability to do it, and we deserve to suffer. ”

Li Xuemei didn't answer, if you are willing to say, then say hard, anyway, I won't lose a piece of meat, it doesn't hurt or itch, and you can finish the work.

If you like to say it, just say it.

The bottom of the hand also did not stop, and soon the dumplings on the bamboo curtain were full.

The steamed dishes over there have also come out.

Li Xuemei asked Gu Xiaoying to bring the dishes over, and she pulled Jiang Xiulan to make a few dishes.
