Chapter 939: A Thousand Miles as a Matchmaker
Seeing that Zhang's suddenly came to say this, Lian Man'er didn't react to what Zhang's meant at first, but after looking at Zhang's expression, Lian Man'er vaguely understood.
Zhang's is talking about Shen Liu.
Lian Man'er turned her head in a hurry, pretending to do things, and didn't match Zhang's words.
"What is passing by, you want me to see, that is, I heard that our family came out, and he came later." Zhang's continued to chatter alone, and he couldn't help laughing. "Said that he wanted to see the greenhouse, he is such a character, I haven't seen anything good. If you want to say that Xiao Jiu's child rarely sees these things, I still believe it. He wanted to see the greenhouse, that was an excuse, he just wanted to ......"
"Mother, look at these snacks, are they too common, do you want to change them." Lian Man'er finally couldn't listen to it anymore, so she interrupted in a hurry.
Zhang saw that Lian Man'er was talking about arranging lunch, so he stopped.
"You look at the others, and you can change them if you want. Don't change that green onion cake. Zhang said, "Liu Xing's daughter-in-law in the kitchen of this Zhuangzi is the most delicious with this green onion cake." It's better than what I cook, and even the chef at home can't compare to her. ”
The women of the Zhuang family are ingenious, and they can often make simple ingredients very delicious, and even more, there are one or two special meals. Some of them are superb, even those who are among the best chefs may not be able to compare. I don't know if I don't eat it, but I don't know if I eat it. As the saying goes, beauty is in the folk. A lot of good things exist in the folk and are unknown.
Green onion cake seems to be very homely, but it also requires skill to make it delicious. First of all, the green onion used in this cake must be small chives, not green onions.
And in this season. There are only green onions, no chives. Fortunately, Lian Man'er's family built a greenhouse, and at that time, the family discussed what to plant in the greenhouse, and even Shouxin and Zhang's proposed chives first.
Chives and green onions are actually the same variety, or they come from the same source.
In the spring, the green onion seeds are densely sprinkled in the ridges, and in late spring and early summer, the green chives grow. The eyes of the chives are tender green and the length is relatively slender. This time. People began to pluck chives and eat them.
Eating like this, the green onion grows. However, there is a limit to how long this green onion can grow. This time. Secondary transplanting is to be carried out. It is to uproot the chives and plant them separately.
After this transplanting, the chives seem to have gained a second life, and they grow stronger day by day. Without this transplanting, those chives would only have grown.
Green onions that have been transplanted. It's green onions. When the farmer eats green onions, it is different from eating small chives, and generally no longer pulls the whole tree to eat, but only picks the green onion leaves to eat. Green onions that have been plucked will grow new green onion leaves. In this way, a green onion can be eaten for a long time until autumn.
The green onions are white and thick. The green onion leaves are also thicker, with more fiber and less water than chives. Therefore, it is also more durable. The green onions that are plucked whole in autumn and stored well can be eaten until the next year.
However, the taste of this green onion is not as fresh and tender as the chives, and it is impossible to make green onion cakes.
The green of the green onion and the white of the flour. The fragrance of green onions and wheat flour makes the green onion cake ready. It can be said that it is full of color and flavor. Since the beginning of winter, it can often be seen on the dining table of Man'er's house, and it is also quite popular with the family.
There are good things, and the Zhang family naturally wants to let the future son-in-law taste it.
Lian Man'er's intention was to divert the topic, so Zhang said it, and she didn't refute it.
Unexpectedly, Zhang's was still unsatisfied, and after finishing the business, he continued the topic that had been diverted just now.
“…… The look in his eyes was clear, and what he wanted to see was ......"
"Ahem......" Lian Man'er coughed dryly twice.
"Man'er, did you hear what your mother said?" Zhang asked Lian Man'er.
"Oh, mother, what are you talking about, oh, you mean the sixth master, the sixth master is very good to you." Lian Man'er said deliberately.
"Also, the sixth master didn't pick us." When Zhang heard this, he smiled and nodded, but he didn't say anything more. I thought that I remembered Shen Liu's thoughtfulness to the family, and I was worried that if I continued to talk about it, I would provoke my daughter, so I stopped there.
At noon, a banquet was set up on the Zhuangzi, and Lian Shouxin, Wulang and Xiaoqi accompanied Shen Liu and Shen Jiu in front of them, and Lian Man'er and Zhang set up another table in the inner room of the backyard. As for the entourage who followed the two families, they were entertained with wine across the courtyard.
After lunch, Shen Liu said that there was nothing to do and that he was going to hunt nearby. Gorou and Xiaoqi both said that they would follow. Even Man'er had the heart to go shopping, but was stopped by Zhang.
“…… On a cold day, don't go out and blow your face. …… Some of the work you have to do by yourself. Zhang told Lian Man'er.
Even Man'er was not reluctant. I followed Lian Shouxin and Zhang's home first. In the evening, Gorou and Xiaoqi returned with a full load, and Shen Liu sent half of what he hunted to Lian's house.
Even Man'er also ordered to carry wine and pigs and sheep to the Shen Mansion. That night, those entourages who followed Shen Liu out hunting had a particularly sumptuous banquet.
……
The winter is cold, Shen Liu has been staying in Fucheng, and he looks for an opportunity to meet Lian Man'er every other day, although most of the time he can't speak, both of them feel quite satisfied. And Goro's family affairs finally have eyebrows.
Regarding Goro's marriage, Shen Liu is very attentive. The other party's family background, and even the girl's character, etc., even Man'er's family hardly has to ask others, and Grandma Shen San is a jack of all trades. Even if Grandma Shen San doesn't know much about herself, she can always find someone to inquire about reliable information.
In the end, the family fell in love with the Qin family. The Qin family showed what they meant several times, and they were also very happy.
Qin Tongju is a scholar, an upright official, and a very trustworthy person. The Zhang family and Mrs. Qin are getting closer and closer day by day, and they are also very talkative, and they have similar tempers.
For Qin Ruojuan, the family is also very satisfied. Qin Ruojuan is handsome, and she is the eldest daughter in the family, her speech and demeanor are very steady and gentle, and Derong's words and skills are the best choice.
These days, Lian Man'er and Qin Ruojuan have become good friends. Because of the intention of being her brother's daughter-in-law, Lian Man'er paid more attention to Qin Ruojuan. Qin Ruojuan has a gentle temperament, but she is very assertive in her heart. Lian Man'er likes Qin Ruojuan the most is her intelligence, kindness, and decency.
With the qualities of these three kinds, you will not be able to go out of the big way in the future, and you will not deviate.
The Qin family, on their part, is also very satisfied with Gorou. Especially Qin Tongju and Mrs. Qin, their value and love for Wulang are almost undisguised.
Gorou is young and promising, and he acts modestly and steadily. is only these few points, and that is also the best candidate to be an uncle. What's more, he is still a handsome teenager, and his knowledge and knowledge are higher than those of his peers. Qin Tongju also once took the school Wulang's chapter, and after that, although he only said that Wulang was a manufacturable material, it seemed that he was very satisfied.
The two families were interested in each other, and the Zhang family also asked Gorou privately, and Gorou also nodded.
Lian Man'er then went to Qin's house, tested Qin Ruojuan around the corner, and learned that Qin Ruojuan also had a good impression of Wulang. At this time, the two families already knew some things, and Qin Ruojuan was able to express her good feelings, which means that she also liked Wulang and this marriage.
"Then I'll come to the door tomorrow and make this layer of window paper clear with Mrs. Qin, she nodded, and we'll ask the matchmaker to come over and make peace." After hearing the news that Lian Man'er brought back, Zhang said to Lian Shouxin.
"It's okay, it's best for you to be a mother, and you can say that there is a relief." Lian Shouxin nodded.
After the two agreed on this matter, they discussed who should be the matchmaker.
"What's the matter with the sixth master, the sixth master will definitely agree. The sixth master is the matchmaker, and Lord Qin also has face. One said.
"I'm thinking of Mr. Chu." The other said, "Lord Qin, don't look at him as an official, he is still a scholar in his bones." I think he attaches the most importance to scholars, not that he doesn't value the sixth master. ”
"If only Mr. Lu were here." The two of them said in unison.
While he was talking, Gorou came with a letter.
“…… It's Mr. Lu's letter, which has just arrived. Gorou placed the letter on the table and sat down on a chair under the kang.
Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi went to Westinghouse just now, and they also came back at this time.
"Mr. Lu has a letter?! Mr. Lu is all right, what is in the letter, and I don't know when Mr. Lu will be able to go back to our Liaodong Mansion to see. "Even keep your word.
Zhang, Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi also asked Wulang what Mr. Lu's letter was.
"Mr. Lu is all right, and I also ask my father and mother." Gorou only answered that, and said the rest.
Lian Man'er picked up the letter on the table, and saw that the envelope had been cut, and it was obvious that Gorou had already read the contents of the letter. Lian Man'er rolled her eyes, vaguely guessing something.
"Brother, then you read the faith and tell our father and mother." Lian Man'er deliberately took the letter and handed it to Gorou.
"Yes, yes." Even Shouxin and Zhang nodded their heads.
Gorou didn't answer the letter, just glanced at Lian Man'er. This glance made Lian Man'er even more sure that there must be something in Mr. Lu's letter. What will it be, let Gorou not say that.
"I'll see." Lian Man'er smiled, and while sitting down in the chair, she took out the letter and read it carefully.
Xiao Qi also came over to read the letter with Lian Man'er.
When the two siblings looked at the letter, they both showed surprised looks
"I didn't expect that." Lian Man'er sighed.
Gorou sat there, his face slightly red. Only Lian Shouxin and Zhang's were still in the dark, so they urged Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi to hurry up.
"What did Mr. Lu say in the letter, you children, why are you bullying your parents for not knowing how to read?"
Even Shouxin and Zhang recognized some words, but they didn't read Mr. Lu's letter. Because Mr. Lu's letter is also true, even if the two of them read all the words, they don't understand the meaning.
"Mother, Mr. Lu has a letter to be a matchmaker for my brother." Lian Man'er put down the letter and said.
