When the surplus grain left, Lu Xiaoyi didn't know, she came over and squatted at the door of the stove room to pour pig food, and the sweet potato vines chopped by Magnolia in advance were mixed with coarse bran and some black bran, and piled up in the bamboo grate like a hill.

Usually this little pig food has been fed, today there is a temporary delay, the three pigs in the pen are hungry and almost turn over. Raise two more pigs this year, just one pig food is enough for Magnolia to be tired, go to the field every morning to cut three baskets of sweet potato vines, only enough for three meals of staple food, spare time snacks have to rely on the wild vegetables cut by Xiao Yi to make up the number.

In summer, pigs are mixed with vegetable water and water to mix some coarse bran and black bran, and the pigs are coaxed to raise, and when the corn and sweet potatoes are returned home in the autumn, it is the time to officially fatten. Farm pigs are all native fat type, green feeding, slow growth in late slaughter, thick meat, fat and water, how to do it are delicious, unlike modern hybrid lean pigs, scientific (feed) feeding, early growth in slaughter, thin meat, lean oil and water, how to do it feel less pure meat fragrance.

When Yulan arrived in the backyard, she saw Lu Xiaoyi squatting in front of the pig food, holding a machete chopping pigweed in her hand, chopping a few sweet potato vines on the cutting board to pieces, and her movements were repeated, obviously distracted.

"Xiao Yi, what do you want?"

Lu Xiaoyi was thinking about the farmer's pork, and was suddenly interrupted by Yulan, and the first thing he did after coming back to his senses was to suck his saliva, and then replied with a smile: "I want to eat meat." ”

Yulan glanced at her, looking very good, "Catch Ming'er and ask your father to buy more meat and come back, and invite your sister-in-law's family and your grandfather to eat together." ”

Lu Xiaoyi said deliberately: "Mother, is there any happy event?" "Haha! Of course, it was her own happy event.

Yulan smiled: "If you want to say that there is really a happy event!" ”

"What's the happy thing?" Say it, say it. Lu Xiaoyi's eyes were shining and staring at Yulan.

"Your sister-in-law is happy." Yulan was strict and didn't mention the surplus food at all.

Although Lu Xiaoyi was a little disappointed, she was happy for her when she heard that Lu Lian was happy again, "Mother, when did it happen?" How did I not know? ”

Magnolia said: "How can you possibly know? Is this what you should inquire about at a little girl's house? ”

was trained again, and Lu Xiaoyi hung his head and humbly was taught.

Seeing her sincerity, Yulan continued: "As for today's matter, how can you know that your sister-in-law came to make cakes in the afternoon. Say hungry for freshly baked hot cakes. I ate two of them and drank some water, and then I vomited again, but we were frightened, and your grandmother rushed to invite Dr. Wu. A handful of pulses. She said she was two months pregnant. "At the end of the day. Magnolia smiled from ear to ear.

"My sister-in-law's family must be overjoyed!"

"That's it, didn't you see the mother-in-law of the Qiu family who took your sister-in-law back with a smile when she heard the news, regardless of dozens of dollars a day. The Qiu family didn't let her come to help make cakes. Yulan was happy and began to worry again, "I have to ask someone else to top your sister-in-law." ”

Lu Xiaoyi said: "Mother, as soon as the matter of partnering with the dart bureau is completed, our family will definitely invite more people in the future, which women in the village are real, you have to consider it now." ”

Yulan nodded, "I'll discuss this matter with your father at night." As he spoke, he brought the bucket of pig food and put the pig food into it one scoop at a time.

Lu Xiaoyi followed to the pigsty, three and a half large black pigs were already crawling on the door of the pen, screaming fiercely, the stench of pig manure and urine was emitted in the pen, and the manure pit was even worse, and the people who were smoked by the fermented gas were extremely uncomfortable. I remember that the chemistry teacher in my previous life said that the manure pit is a silent killer, which is full of ammonia, methane and other poisonous gases that make people poisoned.

Lu Xiaoyi took the stirring stick and began to train the pig: "Scream when you're hungry, scream when you're full, why do you love to scream so much!" ”

The pigs barked even harder.

As soon as the pig food is poured in, the neighing immediately disappears, and the sound of grabbing food reappears.

Lu Xiaoyi stood aside with a stick, learning from Magnolia's appearance, which pig was stronger, which pig was trick-or-treating, and even pulled while eating, Lu Xiaoyi was very angry and handed the stick to Yulan.

Magnolia has a strong hand, and it will hurt when she fights, and animals are beasts, and they have to be whipped with sticks to have a long memory.

Feeding pigs once is like fighting a war, not to mention the stench, but also to spend their throats, tired arms, and sometimes angry crowns, who told them not to have a long memory!

After feeding the pigs, Xiao Ding had already washed it and changed to Xiao Yi, Yulan Finally, Xiao Geng was taken to the stream by Lu Zhong and came back after soaking cool.

Early the next morning, Lu Zhong sent a cart of cakes to the dart board, and when he came back, he bought meat, pork ribs and tofu.

Originally, I only planned to invite the Qiu family and the people of the West Courtyard to sit together, but I thought that Mrs. Lu and Dafang had returned to the village, and in previous years, Dafang was far away in the city, and it was understandable that the two families had little contact, but now they live in the same village, and they are not called to eat and drink, so it is unreasonable.

Lu Zhong discussed with Yulan, and took out three more roosters and slaughtered them.

Lu Xiaoyi is not married to Yu Liang now, and he goes to Yu's house all the time, asking Yulan if she wants Yu Liang.

Yulan had already made arrangements, "The people invited today are all my own relatives, it's not appropriate to call him here, you can send him some later." ”

Lu Xiaoyi was most willing to run errands to the Yu family, and happily agreed, Yulan arranged for her to invite everyone in the Lu family's big house, and Lu Xiaoyi immediately refused to Lu Zhong with his own whispers.

Yulan also felt that she was not thoughtful, so she asked Lu Zhong to go to the big house.

The first to follow were Lu Bingyu, Lu Wufeng and Lu Jiluo, and the others had their own words. Mrs. Lu said that she was unwell and would not come; Lu Fuzeng felt that it was not in line with the etiquette to come too early, so he would come back later; Lu Si studied hard behind closed doors and let him send it; Mrs. Lu wanted to come, and pretended to stay and take care of Mrs. Lu, but in the end, Mrs. Lu gave an order and asked her to bring Lu Si's daughter-in-law and Lu Jiawei over to help.

Yulan counted the number of people at noon, except for the surplus grain, Mrs. Lu and Lu Si sent it alone, the rest of the adults and children counted more than 20 people together!

It's not easy to be a good woman!

Lu Xiaoyi looked at a large basket of melons and vegetables, red, red, green, purple, purple, yellow and yellow, and then looked at a pot of meat, pork ribs and chicken in front of the five flowers, and a bunch of ginger, garlic, shallots, and coriander, what kind of dishes? How to match? Whether fried or steamed, stewed, fried or boiled, all need to be skillful women to know in their hearts, plan in the stove room, and win on the dinner table.

Lu Xiaoyi only felt that her head was big, and it was okay to let her make a few home-cooked stir-fries, and let her independently undertake the banquet for dozens of people, she would be indebted, and she would not have a few years and ten years of stove career, how could she dare to ask for a treat easily.

Therefore, Lu Xiaoyi admires Magnolia very, very much.

Stir-fried pork with red and green peppers, shredded carrots with cress, fungus and carrots, cucumber and eggs fried together, a plate of vinegared cabbage, garlic eggplant sprinkled with coriander, braised pork with bright colors, stewed winter melon with pork ribs in clear soup, crispy chicken nuggets with yellow orange orange, stewed tofu, vegetarian vegetables, mixed with ten dishes, do not hurry to do it.

Wang Dongmei came over early to help, and Xiaoyi Xiaoding has been washing in the backyard. Mrs. Lu took Lu Si's daughter-in-law and Lu Jiawei to come late, and the three of them packed up properly, not like they were here to help.

Originally, they were invited to be guests, even if they took the initiative to help, Yulan would refuse. Wang Dongmei is different, she and Yulan are close concubines, and they often make cakes together, the two have a good relationship, and Yulan is willing to let her help, which is also a manifestation of closeness.

The matter of receiving the mother-in-law of the big house fell on the head of Mrs. Lu, who was not in harmony with the old woman, and she was even more disgusted when she met, sitting in the hall of the east house, you ignore me, and I am too lazy to look at you.

Lu Zhong invited a treat, Mrs. Lu was honored, proudly hugged Xiaofeng and teased, and said to herself: "Xiaofeng, today is your uncle's treat, buy meat and slaughter chickens for a lively banquet!" You have to remember well, when you grow up in the future, you will invite your uncle, and you can't always think about eating others! ”

Mrs. Lu is not a master of dissipation, and Mrs. Lu is not, she was already sitting irritable, and when Mrs. Lu came with a gun and a stick, she was suddenly shocked, and fought back: "This girl from Yong'er's family looks very cute, it looks like she is a daughter-in-law of Suiyong, take care of it, maybe you won't lose money when you lose money, and you can make a profit!" ”

Mrs. Lu circled Xiaofeng back into her arms, glanced at Lu Jiawei, who was sitting quietly on the side, and asked Mrs. Lu with a smile, "Did your family make money for this money-losing goods?" ”

Lu Jiawei's aggrieved tears were in a hurry, she took out a handkerchief and wiped it non-stop, Lu Si's daughter-in-law stood up angrily and asked, "Second aunt, did you talk like this?" ”

Mrs. Lu said to Mrs. Lu's son, "Na, I learned from her." ”

Lu Si's daughter-in-law dropped a sentence of "uneducated" and took Lu Jiawei out of the hall directly, Lu Jiawei cried: "No wonder Xiao Yi is such a scoundrel, it turns out that my uncle and grandmother are scoundrels, mother, let's go home!" I can't eat this angry meal! ”

Lu Si's daughter-in-law said: "We didn't accept her invitation, it was too rude to leave the table halfway, and your great-grandmother would be blamed if she knew about it, so we can't deal with those uneducated people." ”

Lu Jiawei really didn't want to stay here, so she begged more and more pitifully: "Mother, let's go, I don't want to stay longer for a moment." ”

"It's not the same to go back there, how can there be a comfortable place to live in the city." Lu Si's daughter-in-law whispered: "I know that you have never lived in the township, how can my mother live in the township, how can there be a city to live in a dirty and smelly place, daughter, your father doesn't know when he will be able to come out when he reads, and my mother's expectations are now on you." ”

Lu Jiawei is already a fifteen-year-old girl, how can she not understand her mother's voiceover, her cheeks are red, her eyebrows and eyes are already beautiful, but her nose and mouth are slightly worse, at this time, she covers her mouth and nose with a handkerchief just to raise her strengths and avoid weaknesses, a pair of red eyes that have been wronged and crying, two shy peach cheeks, and a pitiful and shy appearance, which makes Lu Si's daughter-in-law full of confidence, "Don't worry, I will ask your grandfather, aunt and aunt to help you find it, and I will definitely find you a city man and marry back to the city." ”

Lu Jiawei nodded shyly, and Lu Si's daughter-in-law soothed: "Bear with it for the time being!" Good days are ahead! (To be continued......)
