Chapter 542: Warm Winter
The first is to ask for pink.
******
Lian Shouren, Lian Shouyi and Lian Jizu returned from hard labor, and the old man Lian sent Erlang to buy vegetables, and now he is calling Lian Shouxin and Wulang, which is to ask a large family to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Lian Shouren, Lian Shouyi and Lian Jizu.
"This must be Erlang going home, saying that he saw us coming back and told his father. His lord asked you to call us. "Even keep your word.
"Dad, are you going with my brother?" Lian Man'er asked, "We haven't eaten together for a long time." ”
"yes." Xiao Qi nodded along with him.
Zhang's side was thinking about how to make a sumptuous meal, and the family was reunited and having a lively meal, when they heard that the old man sent Lian Shouli to call Lian Shouxin and Gorou, he was also a little uncomfortable.
Everyone looks at Lian to keep his word.
"Well," Lian Shouxin thought for a moment, "or not, I won't go." It's not a big deal. ”
Even Shouxin said that he would not go, and of course Gorou would not say that he would go.
"Then let's eat at home, let's have a pot at night." Zhang was very happy.
"Mother, let's make a raw fish head pot." Lian Man'er said, there are a lot of silver carp left in the fish pond at home, and now they are very big, and the head of the silver carp is boiled in soup, and the taste is extremely delicious. She also plans to make some chopped peppers, and when the time comes, she can make chopped pepper fish heads to eat.
"Okay." Zhang immediately nodded in agreement, and said to Lian Shouxin, "His third uncle came to reply to the letter, you two don't go, don't let the girl pass the word, you go out and talk to his third uncle." …… In the past, when there was something going on in the old house, Ye'er was sent back and forth to run errands. Now it's his third uncle. ”
The work on the mountain is nearing completion, and Lian Shuli is spending more time at home than before.
"Of course." Lian Shouxin spoke. And he went out.
Zhang asked Wulang and Xiaoqi what they wanted to eat, and they had to order two dishes for each of their two sons, so she happily took Xiaoxi to the kitchen to prepare the meal.
A moment of work. Lian Shouxin came back from the front yard.
"Dad, why did you tell my third uncle?" Lian Man'er asked Lian Shouxin.
“…… I'll just say it's hard to make some money over there. Buy some meat and beat teeth or something, Gorou and I will go over, and we have to add our share. There is no longer one or two meals. We're not going. This must be quite tired when he comes back from servitude, I told your third uncle, let him bring a message to your grandfather and your grandmother, and we will go over tomorrow. "Even keep your word.
The reason is very good. Lian Man'er laughed secretly.
"Then what did my third uncle say?" Gorou asked again.
"What can you say? When he heard that I wasn't going, he said he wouldn't go to the room to eat. "Even keep your word.
"Oh," Lian Man'er remembered at this time, and the old man Lian asked Lian Shouxin and Gorou to go over for dinner, and asked Lian Shouli to carry Xin'er. Then there is no reason not to let Lian Shouli eat together. "I only call me the third uncle, not the third uncle and Ye Erbei."
"Hmm." Lian Shouxin nodded.
Even Man'er didn't say anything, the Zhuang family is this habit. When there is something going on in the elderly, they usually only call the sons to the table, followed by the adult grandchildren, and sometimes the little grandsons who are particularly favored can also have a seat next to the elderly. As for the daughters-in-law and granddaughters. Generally not called. If there are many people eating, the daughter-in-law and granddaughters have to help cook and clean up. Those who are more particular will have leftovers to eat, and those who are not particular will go back to their own homes to eat after their daughters-in-law and granddaughters finish their work.
Lian Man'er has analyzed the reasons for this situation. She felt. First, it is because men are inferior to women, and secondly, it is also because of material poverty.
In the evening, when the food in the kitchen was about to stop, Gorou sent someone to the mountain to pick up Mr. Lu in advance, and the family set up a table in the east room in the backyard and sat around.
The meals on the table are naturally very rich, there are fish head hot pot that Lian Man'er wants, the milky white fish head soup is burned, and there are fish meatballs, pork balls, belly shreds and other ingredients that are resistant to boiling, and the plate next to it is also prepared to clean up neat spinach, duck blood tofu, tofu skin, lotus root slices, etc., as well as Xiao Qi's braised lion's head, fried river shrimp, Gorou's liver tip, stir-fried vegetables and fried garlic sprouts, fried garlic sprouts, etc.
The staple food is rice, cornmeal, wheat flour and bean flour, and the flowering steamed bun with three and nine noodles.
Even Man'er's family gave Mr. Lu, in addition to breakfast, lunch and dinner were all prepared for wine, and even Shouxin naturally had to accompany him, and sometimes Wulang had to accompany him to drink a cup or two. Today, they returned from the county seat, and it was the first time in these days that everyone sat down to eat together, and wine was naturally indispensable.
The wine served this time was Shanxi Fenjiu brought back by Gorou from the county seat.
Mr. Lu hadn't seen his favorite students for a few days, and he was naturally happy to see that Gorou had brought back good wine.
As soon as Lian Man'er was on the table, he first scooped a bowl of fish head soup and drank it, and the delicious soup entered his stomach, only to feel that his whole body was moist and warm.
Everyone was happy, chatting while eating, and this meal was eaten until the time of the lamp.
Mr. Lu and Goro both went back to the front yard to rest, and Xiao Qi was left in the backyard by Zhang. Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er went back to the West House to rest, and Xiao Xi had already burned the kang in the West Winghouse, laid out the two sisters' bedding, and fetched warm water to serve the two sisters After washing, everyone turned off the lights and went to bed.
Lian Man'er and Lian Zhi'er slept in the inner room, and Xiaoxi went to night in the outer room.
After a night of nothing, the next day after breakfast, the house and the outside were cleaned up, Lian Man'er looked at the accounts of the family, the sauerkraut workshop and the Lianji shop, and made sure that everything was fine during the days when she was not at home, so she went to the sauerkraut workshop and the Lianji shop to look at it for a while, and then crossed the river and went to the newly dug fish pond and lotus pond to see, and then returned home.
Also coming back with her was Lian Ye'er.
Lian Man'er took Lian Ye'er back to the backyard and took out the gifts she brought to her from the county seat.
"Sister Man'er, why don't you buy me these old things. Just give me one or two. Lian Ye'er saw that Lian Man'er brought her a lot of things this time, so she was a little cramped.
"It's not worth much," Lian Man'er saw that Lian Ye'er was embarrassed, so she said, "It's all from our own department store." Ye'er, don't talk to me. ”
"Ye'er, you can take it, I have it too. You take it back and try it, these little things are quite suitable. Lian Zhi'er also said.
"Hmm." was persuaded by Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er, and even Ye'er accepted everything.
Every time Lian Man'er goes out and brings back something, she is indispensable, and usually, even Man'er's family gives them something. Because of the gap between the two families, she has no good things to give back, and sometimes, she will inevitably feel embarrassed. But Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er treat her very affectionately, and they are not bad with their sisters. Because she is the only one herself, she also regards Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er as her own sisters.
Especially Lian Man'er. Lian Man'er not only helped her a lot, but also took care of her emotions and self-esteem in many small things, which made her very moved. Even Man'er often gives her things, and she wants to give them back. But her family is not wealthy, and there are only a few things she can give back.
Every time she gives something back, if it is an ordinary thing from the family, Lian Man'er will happily accept it, making her feel that these things are exactly what Lian Man'er needs, although Lian Man'er's own garden has more and better things of the same than what she sent. And if she spent extra money to buy something to give back to Lian Man'er, Lian Man'er would not be so happy.
Lian Ye'er, I know, Lian Man'er is thinking about her.
Lian Man'er's family treats their family really well, especially for her, Lian Ye'er has nothing else in return, only to work in Lian Ji's shop and be willing to work hard, and pay attention to Lian Man'er everywhere.
"Sister Man'er, did you go into the city and see Sister Hua'er, I heard that she is not doing well?" The three sisters sat on the kang, and Lian Ye'er gossiped.
Obviously, I heard about this from Zhang's family. Lian Hua'er is in the courtyard of the Song family's deep house, and very few news about her will reach Thirty Miles of Camp.
"Hmm." Lian Man'er nodded, and told Lian Ye'er about going to Song's house again.
"I really want to see what she's like now." After Lian Ye'er heard Lian Man'er's words, she burst out laughing, "Tell her to bite the tip again and bully us." She has done something immoral, and now she can be retributed. ”
"We can't treat her at all, she bullied us, hurt us, we didn't settle accounts with her, she still treats us as enemies." Lian Zhi'er said, this is after listening to Lian Man'er, Lian Hua'er saw that her expression was wrong. "Such a person is a real wolf, and he can't be handed over."
"Not really." Lian Ye'er nodded, "Oh, I'm afraid that the eldest aunt is still counting on Sister Hua'er to pull her, now, Sister Hua'er can't take care of herself, let alone pull the eldest aunt and them." ”
"Our grandmother still lets the aunt push and grind every day?" Lian Man'er asked.
"Well, grinding every day. If there is not enough food to eat one day, she will have to eat with Duo'er. When Lian Ye'er said this, she seemed to think of something else, so she pouted, "...... The sister-in-law and Duo'er both lived very well, and they didn't come forward to help. If it were us, we wouldn't be able to do it. ”
"That's a different person." Lian Zhi'er said.
Even Man'er nodded.
Jiang Shi and Lian Duoer did this, to put it nicely, it was rational enough. If the two of them stepped forward to help, it would definitely anger the Zhou family. With Zhou's temper, the Gu clan will continue to suffer, while the Jiang clan and Lian Duo'er will also suffer from it, and they will even provoke the anger and punishment of the Zhou clan on themselves.
For example, the Zhang family in the past, wasn't it because he stood up for the Zhao family, and the Zhou family was particularly unwelcome.
"Duo'er, like Sister Hua'er, is alone. They are the only ones in their hearts. Lian Man'er said, "As for the sister-in-law...... That's a smart man. ”
Lian Man'er's tone was a little meaningful, and even Zhi'er and Lian Ye'er were thoughtful.
