Chapter 31: A bowl of cabbage stew
It was also in the Wang family Qiuning that he ate the first meat after the crossing, although it was semi-fat, if it was placed in modern Qiuning, he would definitely not eat it, but I don't know if it had not been fishy for too long, or the instinct of this body, Qiuning actually worked with those long-term workers, picked up the meat in the big wooden basin and put it in his mouth. Originally, I felt a little greasy when I ate it, but I didn't expect to put it in my mouth, and I actually felt that it was fragrant, soft, and surprisingly delicious, and I couldn't help but want to eat another piece. Then I was a little embarrassed, I put down the chopsticks I picked up, and I was eating meat outside, but Sister Wang's family could only eat vegetarian, Qiu Ning thought of Sister Wang's kindness to herself, and really wanted to bring her share of meat back to eat.
It is true that these long-term laborers were tired and hungry after a day's work in the fields, but they could not call it eating, but could only call it pouring rice. In less than five minutes, all the long-term workers had finished eating. Qiu Ning looked at the rice bowl in front of him in surprise, he actually ate more than half of it, which was already fast. Then after the long-term workers greeted Granny Ma, they packed up their things and went home. I wasn't too curious about Qiu Ning, the new girl, maybe everyone was too tired and just wanted to go back to rest early after eating.
When all the long-term workers in the family were finished, when Granny Ma took Qiu Ning to clean up the bowls, she saw Qiu Ning's bowl of cabbage stew that obviously hadn't moved much, and she was curious: "You girl is so thin, how can you still be picky and not eat meat?" If you don't eat meat, you won't grow your body, but you won't have the strength to work. Mother-in-law doesn't want to help you carry things all day long, so mother-in-law won't die of exhaustion. ”
Qiu Ning blushed with embarrassment, and when she saw that there was no one around, she explained in a low voice: "Mother-in-law, this small bowl of dishes is indeed my share." I also want to eat meat, which is soft and fragrant in my mouth. But I thought that Sister Wang's family had never touched the smell of meat, so I wanted to bring my this back and let Sister Wang's family taste it together. Mother-in-law, do you say this is possible? After saying Qiu Ning's pleading, I was afraid that Granny Ma would not be happy.
Granny Ma knew that Wang Dali's family had taken in Qiu Ning, but she didn't expect Qiu Ning to be so close to the Wang family, and this girl really knew how to repay her kindness, and she also wanted to eat it, but she wanted Wang Dali's family to taste it. So I deliberately saved my share, to say that this kid is really solid-eyed. However, this solid eye made Granny Ma suddenly have a good impression of Qiu Ning, and Granny Ma was moved by Qiu Ning's kindness and simplicity, and she reciprocated her kindness. There are too few such good girls in this world, and Wang Dali's family really saved the right person.
Granny Ma smiled slightly, and nodded towards Qiuning, "Cheng, mother-in-law will bring you a food box, you can put it back first, and then bring it over when you come early tomorrow morning." ”
Qiu Ning's eyes lit up, and Granny Ma looked lukewarm to herself, but she didn't expect to be so easy to talk to. Sure enough, you can't judge people by their appearance, and smiled sweetly: "Thank you, mother-in-law." ”
Granny Ma nodded, and then went into the house and took out a small wooden box, which I saw on the costume TV, this is probably the insulated lunch box of the ancients! However, Ma Poma's insulated box has been around for some years, and the color on it is very old. Granny Ma helped Qiu Ning put the bowl of cabbage stew in the food box, and then handed it to Qiu Ning. "Girl, go back first, it's not early, just in time for Wang Dali's family to have dinner."
Qiu Ning was a little hesitant, on the one hand, she really wanted to bring things back to Sister Wang's family to taste, but what? Tyunin knew that there must be some work to be done in the kitchen, so would it be okay to go like this?
Granny Ma saw what Qiu Ning meant, and smiled, "It's okay, I'll live in the house for my wife, I'll clean up the other things, you can leave quickly!"
Qiu Ning bowed to Granny Ma, and then happily left with the snack box. After walking for twenty minutes, I finally arrived at Sister Wang's house. Before entering the courtyard, he heard Bao'er's laughter, Qiu Ning knew that this must be Brother Wang's return, and he was making Bao'er laugh? If you want to say that modern society is developed, it is not good to play WeChat as soon as the father comes home, that is, on the computer, and the children are all lost to his wife, or the ancient good man has nothing to do, so he can only tease the child.
Qiu Ning entered the courtyard, and there were already steamed buns and rice porridge on the table, but the steamed buns were not white but black. Qiu Ning knew in her heart that Sister Wang's family really treated herself well, so she ate white-flour steamed buns for herself, but she knew that she wouldn't come back to eat at night, so her family would eat black-flour steamed buns. When Sister Wang saw Qiu Ning coming back, she immediately stepped forward with a smile and asked worriedly, "How is Qiu Ning?" ”
Qiu Ning smiled at Sister Wang, and said with confidence: "No problem, it's good to live, not very tired." ”
Sister Wang was finally relieved, "It's good to get used to it, Sister is afraid that you will feel too tired if you don't adapt for a while, and it is the easiest to work for Old Man Wang in this village." If you go to another house, I'm afraid you will be even more unbearable. ”
Qiu Ning nodded: "Sister Wang, I understand, I have already eaten at the Wang family, and I just brought some food back to Granny Wang." After speaking, he lifted the food box.
Sister Wang approached the food box and disagreed: "This is not good, working in someone's house, people will provide you with food and drink, don't take anything from the house, let Old Man Wang know how bad it is!"
"Sister Wang, it's okay, this is my share, I want to bring it back for Granny Wang to taste." After saying that, Qiu Ning opened the food box and immediately exuded a meaty fragrance. Qiu Ning doesn't know if it's because everyone is poor and can't eat meat all year round, so whenever there is a little bit of meat fragrance, he feels that it is very fragrant and delicious. Or is it because the ancient pigs were all naturally fed and did not eat those artificial feeds, so the meat fragrance emitted by these meats is particularly strong, and the taste is also particularly fragrant.
Granny Wang sat on the side and drank porridge, and when she heard that Miss Qiu Ning brought vegetables to herself, and smelled the aroma of meat, she understood Qiu Ning's intentions. I was suddenly a little embarrassed in my heart, this girl was too real. "Qiu Ning, mother-in-law has something to eat, don't bring it back, mother-in-law knows your mind."
Qiuning took out the bowl of cabbage stew from the food box and placed it on the table. Granny Wang looked at the few slices of meat in the bowl, and her face became even more embarrassed. "Mother-in-law, try it, it's very fragrant."
Sister Wang and Wang Dali didn't know what to say, forget it. "Mother, you can taste it, this is Qiu Ning's intention."
Granny Wang moved her chopsticks at this time, Qiu Ning saw that Granny Wang was willing to eat, she was so happy, she was afraid that Sister Wang's family would dislike her, and she felt that she would bring leftovers to eat?
Qiu Ning took Bao'er from Brother Wang's hand and held it aside to feed Bao'er rice porridge, Bao'er was very obedient, feed a bite and eat a bite, Qiu Ning looked at the white fat and obedient Bao'er, and liked it even more. When dinner was over, Qiu Ning helped Sister Wang clean up the dishes together, Sister Wang originally refused, Qiu Ning worked for a day at Wang's house, it must be a lie to say that she was not tired, how could there be anything that was not tired? But seeing Qiu Ning's insistence, Sister Wang couldn't say anything, she was too polite, but Qiu Ning was not used to it. But Qiu Ning is really careful, and she is also diligent, she is indeed a good girl.
