The second is to ask for pink.

*******

Hearing Lian Ye'er say that the Zhou family asked the He family to follow the Gu family, Lian Man'er couldn't help blinking.

"Your grandmother let your second aunt grind again, because of what?" Zhang heard it next to him and asked.

Coming back from Taicang, the Zhou family was concentrating on the Gu family, and the grinding was only one of the Gu family, although he was also not allowed to go out, but in other aspects, the He family's life was not too easy, of course, this is comparatively.

Let the He family grind together, doesn't that reduce the pressure on the Gu family? Why did Zhou do this?

"Why is this necessary? As far as my second aunt is concerned, my grandmother can pick out a lot of mistakes about her. Lian Ye'er said, "In the past two days, my grandmother has started scolding her again. Yesterday it was my second aunt's turn to cook, the pot water was not poured, so I cooked cabbage soup directly, my milk took a bite, and said that it was the smell of the pot water, and my second aunt was scolded, and then, let her and my eldest aunt grind the noodles together. ”

"She didn't do this once or twice." Zhang said, "It turns out that when we lived together, every time it was her turn to cook, I had to look at it, and I couldn't see it, she always had something wrong." It's lazy, and if you can save trouble, you can save trouble. …… His grandmother also knows her temper, didn't she watch it before, why didn't she watch it this time? ”

"He Lao's sixth daughter-in-law helps her second aunt cook together." Zhao said, "Then it's also an outsider, and it's not good for her milk to keep an eye on it." Zhao said.

Lian Man'er couldn't help but laugh.

"Our grandmother doesn't look down on the people of the old He family." Lian Ye'er said.

"These are the people who can't be coaxed by his milk." Zhang thought about it and said.

He Lao's sixth daughter-in-law took her daughter, and she ate at the same table with the Zhou family. The two boys of the He family ate at the same table as the old man Lian.

Lian's old house, now at the dinner table is still the rationing system. As before, the meals were all cooked. He Lao's sixth daughter-in-law is in her prime. Two boys and a girl eat a lot. There was not much food in the upper room. And Zhou's has always been very close to what to eat, and it is impossible for any of her daughters-in-law and granddaughters to eat more, and Zhou can't wait for them to eat a mouthful of food.

Now there are a few more outsiders. and have similar conduct to He's, can Zhou be happy, can he treat them?

However, people are left behind even by the old man, and the Zhou family can't be pushed out, so they can only be angry with the He family.

"My temper has become bigger and bigger day by day in the past few days, and she scolds people at every turn. At the dinner table, he smashed chopsticks and scolded. Lian Ye'er said again.

"What about the old He family? Have you ever missed a meal? Lian Man'er asked.

"How should people eat or how to eat. The family and the second aunt are really a family. Lian Ye'er said.

Zhou's temper. Dealing with a timid person like Zhao, and dealing with a thin-skinned person like Zhang, it is easy to catch, but when dealing with cheeky and hob meat, the effect is not very good. People don't care what you scold. should eat, drink, and not take away her heart at all, and in the end, Zhou can only be angry with herself.

Fortunately, Zhou can still instruct his daughter-in-law and granddaughters to work and carry out corporal punishment, otherwise he will hold his breath and don't know what will happen.

"Wait, in two days. It's time for our grandma to quarrel with our grandfather. Lian Man'er thought about it and said.

What can be done to punish the He family, the He family will definitely not leave the Lian family because of this.

"What's the pain? For the sake of those few people, the house is restless. Zhang said.

"Who knows that." Lian Man'er sighed.

I am afraid that this matter will not be as Mr. Lian wishes, and it will really bring a good reputation to the Lian family. And Lian Man'er thought about it. I think that maybe in the end, it is the Gu clan who can really benefit from it.

The Zhou family paid more and more attention to the He family and the He family, so the Gu family would not be idle. I believe that with Gu's shrewdness, he will not only seize this opportunity, but also create opportunities for himself. In the end, the Gu family turned over and climbed onto the head of the He family, from the lowest level of the Lian family to the penultimate layer, and even Man'er would not find it strange.

…………

In the middle of winter, Lian Man'er's family picked the coldest day and began to pack dumplings again. There are several more people in the family to eat, and this time there are more than three times more dumplings than in previous years. Fortunately, there are also many people to pack the dumplings, in addition to Zhang's, Lian Zhi'er, Lian Man'er's mother and daughter, plus Han Zhong's daughter-in-law and Xiaoxi, Wu Wang's family also brought Wu Jiayu to help, as well as Zhao's family, Lian Ye'er, Zhang's also invited Chunzhu's daughter-in-law, Chunni, Chunyan's two sisters, Wu Yuchang's daughter-in-law and Erya to help.

The women are responsible for making the dumplings in the house, lighting the fire outside, steaming the dumplings, and sending the dumplings outside to be quick-frozen, all of which are done by the long-term workers of Lian Shouxin.

This dumpling lasted for two days in a row, and Lian Man'er's family served lunch, dinner, and supper at night. The meals aren't varied, but they're affordable and hearty. These people invited are either relatives or very good friends. This kind of is not a matter of hiring, it is considered that the villagers help each other, it is a matter of affection, and the meal is prepared according to the standard of hospitality.

Zhang's daughters-in-law sat at one table to make dumplings, and Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er sat at another table. The daughters-in-law were chatting about the daughters-in-law at the table, and several girls were even more chattering, with their hands and mouths non-stop.

"The second aunt looked at my mother and I coming here to pack dumplings, and heard that we ate well, but my eyes were red. I also went up to the room and told our grandfather and grandmother that they would also come to help pack the dumplings. Lian Ye'er was talking to Lian Man'er about the old mansion, "She can't cut shredded sauerkraut, she will pack this glutton." He Lao's sixth daughter-in-law, and even Ya'er will also. What do you say, the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt have no relatives in their eyes, and would rather invite outsiders and give good meals to outsiders cheaper, rather than help their own families. ”

"Hmph," Lian Man'er snorted, "Nonsense." In this house, which one is an outsider, any one is closer than her to us. Besides, she is good at making dumplings, but who dares to eat the dumplings she packs? ”

The little girls at the table all giggled.

Ho's burial and leth, that is well-known.

"It's not that I don't take care of her, but I also have trouble. Bao This meal is good, and she has to have the ability to eat it herself. Lian Man'er said again.

"Man'er, this girl, can speak." At the other table, Wu Wang whispered to Zhang.

Zhang smiled and glanced at Lian Man'er's table.

"My four children, Wulang and Zhi'er have one temperament, Man'er and Xiaoqi are the other, and I don't know who to follow." The words are neither praise nor depreciation, but the joy and complacency in the tone cannot be hidden.

"What did you say?" On this table, Lian Man'er asked Lian Ye'er while quickly kneading a dumpling, and then pasting a piece of soaked corn husk, placing it on the curtain drawer upright.

"Milk let the second aunt be honest, don't think about eating with a mouth, or eat others." As if remembering the situation when Zhou scolded He, Lian Ye'er grinned.

Lian Man'er smiled slightly, Zhou's this is probably scolding He Lao's sixth daughter-in-law.

"When will you be in the room, did you say it?" Lian Man'er asked Lian Ye'er again.

"I didn't say it, I guess it's only been a few days, but that side hasn't been ground out yet." Lian Ye'er said, "Milk scolds at the door every day." ”

This time, the yellow rice noodles and sorghum rice noodles were not sent to the mill for grinding, because in addition to Gu's family, there was also He's who pushed the grinder.

"The two children of the old He family, are they still stealing your firewood?" Lian Man'er asked Lian Ye'er.

"Steal, why don't you steal. I don't think the firewood left in my house is enough to burn. Lian Ye'er frowned.

"What didn't the third uncle say?" Lian Man'er asked again.

"My dad told those two boys, and those two boys didn't say anything to their faces, and they still stole it after that." Lian Ye'er said.

"Just like their father." Chunni picked up the conversation and said, "My father and my mother said that if they can't be provoked, they have to hide." They not only stole your firewood, but also ours. ”

"And stole our eggs." Chunyan said.

"Our street is full of old neighborhoods, and we haven't lost anything in the past few years." At the table over there, Chunzhu's daughter-in-law said, "As soon as they came, we started to lose things." That day, our Chunyan and her father grabbed the hand of the eldest son of the He family, and the eldest son howled dryly, saying that he had no father, and he was going to freeze to death or something. caught the thief, our Chunyan and her father's temper, we want to beat him, so young, if you don't learn well, won't you be like his father in the future, and it will become even more of a scourge? ”

"But he's howling, hey. Besides, they are now left by the uncle of that courtyard, and our Chunyan father reprimanded him and didn't beat him. ”

"It's not that I said, there are many children who have no father, no mother, and have a hard life, and I haven't seen anyone steal it." Wu Yuchang's daughter-in-law said, "The second aunt's husband is too soft-hearted, and this other person's child is not easy to manage." ”

Lian Man'er listened to these words, and an embarrassed expression appeared on her face. Even the old man took in the orphans and widows of the He family, he should have a good heart, shouldn't he receive a piece of praise, but this result, why does it seem to be the opposite?!

……

After two days of work, more than a dozen large tanks of dumplings were packed, and even on the breakfast table of Man'er's house, there was more glutinous dumplings. Now that her family's life is good, after eating dumplings, Zhang's will specially prepare a bowl of sugar. For the children of the villagers, eating the dumplings dipped in sugar is the supreme delicacy.

However, Lian Man'er is dispensable to white sugar, and in her, the bean paste filling in the dumpling is sweet enough. With delicious side dishes, eating sweet and fragrant dumplings, and drinking a sip of bone broth, it is a perfect breakfast.

After wrapping the dumplings, Lian Shouxin took the beans again, and went to the tofu factory to exchange for fifty plates of tofu and came back. The tofu is cut into pieces with a tofu knife and frozen outside the house overnight to become a sturdy frozen tofu. Pieces of land are stored in large vats and stored outside the house.

This is the prelude to the purchase of New Year's goods.
