Chapter 397: Watching the Moon and Talking about the Ancients

Lian Shouxin, Lian Shouli, Zhang and Zhao are in front of the four adults, and Lian Man'er, Lian Zhi'er, Wulang, Xiaoqi and Lian Ye'er are in front of wine.

Lian Man'er suggested that everyone drink together first.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's the first time we've spent the Mid-Autumn Festival like this, Dad, what do you say? Lian Man'er said with a smile.

Lian Shouxin looked left and right, and saw that everyone's interest was quite high, so he smiled and picked up the wine cup.

"We won't say anything about the big cost, just tell the truth. This cup of wine, we are all dry, I wish our two families a reunion, and the future will be more and more prosperous! ”

"Good!" Lian Man'er applauded.

"That's what my dad said." Xiao Qi also smiled.

The youngest son and the little girl cheered like this, and even kept the confidence ironing, and almost smiled on their faces Chapter 397 Enjoying the Moon and saying that an ancient flower came out.

The big guys all raised their wine glasses, and even Shouxin and Lian Shouli drank at once, Zhang's movements were slightly slow, and he also drank a glass of wine, only Zhao was hesitating with a wine glass.

Zhao doesn't drink. Whether it was in her mother's family or after marrying into the Lian family, she never had the opportunity to touch wine.

"I really don't know how to drink." Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Zhao was a little shy and a little embarrassed.

"Who is born to drink this thing? There wasn't much wine in this cup, just a sip. His third aunt, don't be stunned, drink it. It's also spicy. Zhang smiled and said to Zhao.

"Yes, Third Uncle, this glass of wine, what do you say, you have to drink it too. That's a good sign. Even Man'er persuaded.

"Mother, you can drink it." Even Ye'er sat beside Zhao and said with a smile.

"Yes. Just this one cup. Go down, the big guy is whatever. "Even keep the word.

Seeing that the big guys were saying this, Zhao gritted his teeth and brought the wine cup to his lips. She is not a person who will drink. If you swallow this glass of wine all at once, it's nothing. She hesitated, after the wine was inhaled. also smacked the taste, but now it was spicy enough, and my eyelids were red.

"Okay, eat vegetables, eat vegetables. Chapter 397 Enjoying the Moon and Saying Gu" Zhang smiled when he was busy.

Only then did everyone move their chopsticks.

Everyone talked and laughed, and Lian Shouxin and Lian Shouli were eating and drinking liquor at the same time. After Zhang drank a glass of white wine, he changed to red wine. The Zhao family refused to even touch red wine, and even the children of Man'er drank a cup of red wine happily.

This wine is slightly different from the red wine that is sold, and the alcohol content is not as high. What was sold was dry red wine, and now the children drink wine. The taste is softer and sweeter. If you don't get drunk, it's about the same as a drink. And they use a small cup of liquor to drink, a cup of wine is a small sip, and the children drink it for fun.

The sweet potato pieces are fried and browned, and the sugar syrup is poured on them, and when they are clamped, they bring out the wisps of silk, and they have to be dipped in the water bowl next to them, and the threads can be broken. When eaten in the mouth, it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, fragrant and sweet. Not only Man'er, but also several other children love to eat it.

Zhang sandwiched a piece of carp, put it into Xiao Qi's bowl, turned his head and saw that Zhao's appearance was a little restrained, so he hurriedly picked a piece of lean meat from the big bowl of braised pork and dipped it in the braised sauce. Put it in Zhao's bowl.

Zhao's mother died early, and before she got married, she begged for a living in the hands of her stepmother, and after she got married, she ran into a mother-in-law like Zhou, and she never gave birth to a boy, so she developed the habit of not daring to stretch out chopsticks at the dinner table. Even later, in Lian Ji's shop, I ate with Lian Man'er and them, this deep-rooted habit was not completely changed for a while. If you don't pay attention to it, Zhao will be restrained and get used to not eating vegetables.

"His third aunt, just our two families, what else are you afraid of. This is different from your mother's house, and it is also different from when you went to the room. Zhang's whispered to Zhao, "No, now you are living, you are the master of the house, you can do whatever you want......

After a meal, I ate for about half an hour, and even Shouxin and Lian Shouli were a little drunk. In the second half of the day, the big guy simply didn't do any work, just rested at home.

In the evening, because you can sleep for a while more at noon, the big guys, especially even the children of Man'er, are very energetic, after a simple dinner, everyone will move the tables and chairs to the yard, all kinds of moon cakes, snacks, melon seeds, fruits are placed on a full table, the big guys sit around the table, admire the moon, chat.

When the moon is in the sky, the night sky is clear with only a few slight clouds, as if it is a faint light gauze shawl, which can not cover anything, but it seems that the night sky, starlight and moonlight are more beautiful and serene.

Lian Man'er took a knife and picked out a piece of mooncakes with each filling, cut them into small teeth, and placed them on a large plate for everyone to taste. In this way, the big guy can eat as many mooncakes as possible.

After cutting the moon cakes, Lian Man'er went to break the pomegranate again. This pomegranate was bought by her Tuowu shopkeeper from the county seat, a big one, each one is six or seven taels, there are many fruits in it, the juice is enough, and the taste is sweet.

Xiao Qi sat next to Lian Man'er and shared a pomegranate with her.

"Sister, in the moon, are there really Chang'e and Jade Rabbit?" Xiao Qi asked Lian Man'er.

"Thisβ€”should ...... Yes. Lian Man'er thought for a moment and replied hesitantly.

"Ah......" Xiao Qi tilted his head and stared at the bright moon in the sky without blinking.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ When I came back from work on the mountain that day, I saw Wu Ergou and Wu Sangou. Lian Shouli was talking to Lian Shouxin, "The two of them also began to collect the land." The harvest is the peanuts of the few acres of land near the South Mountain. When Wu Ergou saw me, he had to pull me to talk. He said that this year's harvest in the field was not good...... Speaking of peanuts, there are worms, and the harvest is half of that of previous years. ”

"That's what they said?" Lian Shouxin frowned slightly, "Isn't this talking nonsense with your eyes open?" How well the peanuts have been served this year. Didn't we all see the peanuts that collected my six acres of land that day, how well the peanuts grew in those few acres of land, how could there be any insects? ”

That's what I told him. He told me that after we took over the land, I don't know what happened, and the peanuts wilted and worms. Lian Shou said.

"What is he trying to do?" Even Shouxin's brows furrowed even tighter.

"What else do you want to do," Zhang heard it beside him, so he took over the conversation, "Doesn't it mean that the harvest is small, and it will be better to pay rent for the upper house when the time comes." ”

This year, the old man handed over the land to the martial brothers to collect, and the set was to divide the rent according to the actual output, after deducting the rations for the Lian Shouli family. If the total output is small, then the land rent that the martial brothers have to hand over to the old man will naturally be less.

"That day, Jiang San's daughter-in-law from Xicun told me in private. said that our old man rented the land to their brothers, that is a person who is not kind, and when he goes to live in the street, the chicken runs into his door, and he can't go out again. People came to the door and said that everyone had seen it, and they had caught other people's chickens, and they didn't admit it. Zhang said again.

"Fourth, I'm afraid you don't remember much about this. In the past, when our family rented land, we also rented it to their family. At that time, it seemed that the rent was not happy, and I always cried poor, either drought or waterlogging, and there was always a saying, in those years, our family's land rent was confiscated. ”

Lian Shouli said that this was an old thing about the Lian family that Lian Man'er had never heard of, so he turned his head and listened carefully. The attention of several other children was also attracted.

"Later, our family's money slowly ran out, and the land rent was small, so my father took back all the land and planted it ourselves. Because of this, their family also blackmailed our family for several bags of grain. said that our family took the land, and their family would have to starve or something. At that time, the fathers of the second and third dogs were there, called Wu Laokang, and it was him, who brought their two sons to our house to carry the food. ”

Lian Man'er was embarrassed to hear it, and there was such a thing. The martial artist turned out to be such a superb, and even the old man turned out to be a bun.

"I don't remember much, third brother, when you say that, I have a little impression." Even keep your word.

"Why don't I think this makes sense?" Lian Man'er couldn't help but say, "The land is my father's, my father wants to take it back, can't his family go to tenant other people's land, why is he going to starve, and he still asks my father for food." ”

"It's Laibei." Zhang's Road.

"Their family pays less land rent, can my grandfather not know, just let them?" Gorou asked. With the shrewdness of the old man, he should not be fooled.

"Why don't you know, it's just soft-hearted." Lian Shouli said, "His family is poor, and when it is time to pay the rent, he will drag his wife and children to cry poor and kowtow to your father, and your father will pity them, so he will turn a blind eye." ”

"I also remembered a little, at that time, their family seemed to have a relationship with our family, and they called it amiable incense. Later, we harvested the land and planted it ourselves, and they didn't come, and when they met, sometimes they talked, and sometimes they didn't talk. "Even keep your word.

"I seem to have heard the old man in the village say that his family is poor, and the mother of the two brothers doesn't even have a pair of pants to cover their feet and necks." Zhang said.

"His family is like this, why did my father rent the land to them again? In this village, there is no one else renting land? Lian Man'er was puzzled.

"It seems that they knew that your lord was going to rent land, and they stopped your lord on the road and knelt down and begged your lord." Even keep your word.

"Oh......" Lian Man'er sighed meaningfully.

"Your lord, you have this kind eye. must have looked at them pitiful, and they were soft-hearted, so they agreed. Zhang whispered to Lian Man'er.

"If they can row home like this, life should be better these years, right?" Lian Man'er asked.

"It's better than anything, it's not much different from the past." Lian Shou Lidao.

"Third brother, then this matter ......" Lian Shouxin asked Lian Shouli, "Do we have to do something." "You can't watch others fool even the old man.

"What can we do? What do you do? Lian Shouli scratched his head and asked Lian Shouxin...... Send a change first, ask for pink.

There will be two watches in the evening.

PS When making leek boxes, cornmeal is added to the white noodles, and the fried leek box skin is softer and more delicious, which is better than pure white noodles. This was discovered by chance in order to increase the intake of whole grains. (To be continued)RQ!!
