Chapter 483: The mother-in-law opposed
He Wei's family returned to Wenxin Garden, and it was almost half past ten.
Mother He took out a big bag of wild vegetables from the refrigerator two days ago that she had gone back to Hejiabu to sweep the grave, and said to her daughter who followed up to help: "Let's make it simple at noon and eat dumplings." Mom wrapped a lot of shepherd's cabbage dumplings the day before yesterday and frozen, you sorted out these wild vegetables, then shoeed a few bamboo shoots, mixed a few cold vegetables with dumplings to eat. ”
Speaking of this, he paused, looked at the living room, and asked his daughter not very surely: "The wild vegetables on the table at noon, do you think Ah Qing will mind?" I knew that when I came back from Hejiabu yesterday, I should have gone to the supermarket first, but the meat was not as fresh as it was killed, so I didn't go to ......"
He Wei was sorting Ma Lantou in front of the sink, and when she heard this, she said with a smile: "No, when he was hospitalized, he asked me what the wild vegetables looked like, and he took him to dig ...... when I was free."
Suddenly, my parents didn't know about her falling in love with Major General He, so they hurriedly stopped and said that he would take the lead. Opened the topic casually: "By the way, Mom, you and Dad went to Hejiabu, Uncle Niang, they didn't embarrass you, right?" ”
"What else can I do? No matter how ugly the words are, they have scolded us, and there are many lice that do not itch and debts do not worry, so she will scold them. He Mu pursed her lips and snorted. In fact, not only is it a bad scolding, this trip back to Hejiabu may be bloody. If it weren't for the police station, she called to inform the eldest concubine to go over, and the eldest concubine still held a kitchen knife to block the door and scolded, insisting that the two of them would give an explanation, and if they didn't give it, they wouldn't let them go home. He Mu was really laughed at. Parlance? He Meiqin did such a pickled thing, and in turn she had to give her own explanation? What the hell is this!
But these bad things, Mother He didn't plan to tell her daughter. lest she worry in Kyoto, she only picked some inconsequential things and nagged: "Your grandmother has also changed her methods to persuade her several times, and your father and I have all said that we can't control it." Laugh at. It's really easy for our family to bully. This time, he didn't say anything high, picked it up and put it down gently, it was time for He Meiqin to be taught a lesson. According to me, what kind of lawsuit is withdrawn, the court will decide what it is, see if she dares to mess around like this in the future, what virtue! ……”
He Wei knew her mother's typical knife mouth and tofu heart. really let her watch He Meiqin go to prison, even if she shouted "You should suffer and be taught a lesson". I must be upset in my heart.
Her father and uncle are brothers in the end, breaking bones and tendons, and can't write two words with one stroke. He Meiqin's performance was certainly disappointing, but it was the first offense. It has not reached the point of killing people and setting fires, and the torment of these days in the detention center, if she is willing to repent, it will be enough for her to learn a lesson. and if they refuse to repent. Even if you sit in prison. It is still a scourge to come out. The headache is the uncle and uncle, who are crooked when they are young, and when they grow up, they want to break the word "difficult"!
So she comforted her mother: "Mom, you can't be angry about Sister Meiqin, if you are too angry, you can't get along with your body?" Our family can do what we want to do. As for the future, how is Sister Meiqin, don't you have an uncle to worry about? It's enough for you to worry about me and my brother. ”
Mother He was so happy to be coaxed by her daughter: "No! I can't worry about the affairs of your brothers and sisters, how can I have that foreign time to care whether He Meiqin is a rotten rafter or a pillar. ”
Between words. With a knife in his hand, he quickly chopped half of the bamboo shoots into dices.
He Wei sorted out Ma Lan's head. Put the water in the basket a few times.
According to her mother, there had just been a shower when she dug up, and the leaves were very clean, and they were dug in the mountains, so there was no pollution.
The washed Ma Lantou was handed over to her mother to blanch, and she continued to bury her head in the grass seeds.
The scientific name of grass seed south is milk vetch, and the roots, whole herbs and seeds can be used in medicine, which has the effects of dispelling wind and brightening eyes, strengthening the spleen and invigorating qi, detoxifying and relieving pain. Therefore, after the spring thunder every year, especially during the period before and after the Qingming Festival, the grass seed south and the purser and the horse head, and are known as the "most down-to-earth" three types of wild vegetables in the Qing City, enter the kitchens of thousands of households with a low-key attitude.
The same goes for the He family. During this time, Mother He would pull Father He up the mountain and down to dig wild vegetables. In the early years, I mainly went to save expenses, but now that the living conditions are better, I want to be fresh, and there is the habit of accumulating over the years. Every Qingming, if you don't eat wild vegetables for a few days, you will be exhausted.
Several mountains near Qing City were almost run by Hemu, which one has the most tender shepherd's cabbage, which one has more malan heads, and which one has wild mountain shoots...... When I go out for a day, I often come back with large bags and small bags, mud and dew. If you can't finish it that day, you will use a plastic bag to tie the mouth of the bag tightly and put it in the refrigerator to refrigerate, and it will still be tender and dripping after a few days.
But it usually doesn't sit that long.
Needless to say, shepherd's cabbage is the best partner for dumplings, mugwort dumplings, and fried rice cakes. Dumplings and mugwort dumplings are made at one time, steamed and cooled and quick-frozen. If you want to eat it, take it out and take it hot, and it is still full of flavor. Then there is the famous fried rice cake with shepherd's cabbage, as soon as it comes out of the pot, the daughter's godmother's house, the son's master's house, and the fruit shop owner's house who often come and go, and occasionally send two plates to the old man and lady who have a good relationship upstairs and downstairs. The rest is your own, the amount is less, try it fresh, and the amount is too much.
Malan head is usually used to cook and eat. After blanching, cut into minced pieces, and mix with the same blanched bamboo shoots and dried tofu in a hot oil pan, it is a delicious and refreshing meal. Because of its heat-clearing and detoxifying, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects, Malantou is very popular with the locals. Even if I can't go to the suburbs to pick, I will buy two catties at the farmers' market to try it. The toothache is on fire, and eating some Malan head will be cured immediately without medicine.
I don't know how to eat grass seeds in the south, but He Mu likes to cook glutinous rice.
After sorting out the grass seeds after clean water, chop them into minced pieces, and cook salty glutinous rice with diced bacon and fresh bamboo shoots. It is delicious and not hot, clears heat and detoxifies.
But although it was just dumplings and wild vegetables, the mother and mother were busy for an hour from beginning to end.
Just after half past eleven o'clock, the fragrant glutinous rice was steamed, the mugwort dumplings filled with shredded meat with Qingming characteristics were out of the pot, the soup dumplings with shepherd's cabbage and mushrooms were also ready, and then five side dishes were served on the table in turn: cold salad malan head, vegetable braised bamboo shoots, tofu Songhua eggs, sharp pepper garlic black fungus, and He Mu made pickled pepper and phoenix feet in the refrigerator early in the morning.
"It's time to eat!" He Mu brought the dishes and chopsticks to the table and greeted the men in the living room who were very interested.
Father He was pulling He Qingdong to talk about tea. Although I don't pay attention to tobacco, alcohol and tea, who doesn't like good things? touched the door-to-door gifts brought by He Qingdong one by one. Happy and embarrassed, he said, "None of this is cheap, is it?" I think it's better to put it away, and wait for your uncle and aunt to come back and give them a drink. It's good for me to have big leaves to drink, such a tender bud tip. It's a waste to give me a drink. ”
He Qingdong was willing to bring it back, and while his mother-in-law was beckoning him to eat, he hurriedly said: "Uncle, you are too polite, this thing was originally for people to drink, and there is no waste of waste." You see that I came to your house to eat and live, and you refuse to accept such a small thing, so why am I embarrassed to stay? ”
"It's a little thing. You see you brought up so many ......," Father He rubbed his hands, and he was really embarrassed.
He Qingdong came this time, in addition to a set of change of clothes, a 32-inch large suitcase. It was full of cigarettes, wine, and tea robbed from Mr. He, as well as the skin care products that Zhou Yuele bought for He's mother's age, and a book of "The Complete Picture of Antiques of the Past Dynasty" that was auctioned at a high price and was ready to be given to his future brother-in-law, but I don't know if he appreciates his face.
He Wei was embarrassed when she saw him take his pajamas on the train, and originally thought that he was staying in Qingshi for a few more days. That's why I went out with such a big suitcase. Who knew that the change of clothes only occupied a small corner of Mimi, and the rest was a door-to-door gift for her family.
Someone smiled disapprerovingly, and while the future brother-in-law was washing outside, he quickly stole a kiss on her face.
So this matter, before arriving home, only He Wei knows.
He Mu didn't know how much the tobacco, wine and tea on the coffee table were worth, and when she heard He Qingdong say this, she hurriedly came over and persuaded: "Oh, what are you pushing around." Wash your hands and eat. Ah Qing, there is not much time at noon. I didn't go grocery shopping, they were all ready-made at home, and I had some simple food. In the afternoon, I asked someone to buy a home-raised chicken and stew chicken soup for you. There will be a turtle tomorrow, which Weiwei and her father have long said to people, and the skirt is the best to use to make up for the body. You hurt me to listen to Weiwei said to strengthen nutrition, still need to recuperate, after eating to the room to rest for a while, we will be cleaned up in the evening. ”
The earnest advice of the future mother-in-law made He Dashao flattered, and he hurriedly said: "Auntie, you work hard, I can eat anything, I am not a picky eater." ”
He Xidong grinded his teeth on the side, Huo Huo rolled his eyes. The heart said yes, oh, not picky eaters, the most beautiful sister in our family has been taken into your nest, and others are naturally not picky eaters......
The white eyes were not rolled, and the back of the head was slapped by He Mu: "What are you doing stupidly?" If you don't take out the hot coconut water, where is your usual cleverness? He Qingdong said again: "Weiwei said that the doctor told you not to drink alcohol before the injury is healed, so I won't ask you to drink, but it's okay to drink some coconut water." ”
He Xidong's heart was sour. Mother, I'm your son! This man is here to recruit your son-in-law, and he has bad intentions! Ill-intentioned! Don't be fooled!
But then again, the door-to-door gift this guy prepared was really to his heart's content. Not to mention the expensive items sent to his parents, just the treasure album that was given to him, I can't stop looking at it.
is worthy of being a soldier, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent and winning all battles is the trick of learning fine! I know that his father is good at this, I know that his mother has become obsessed with maintenance in recent years, and I know that he likes antique treasure appreciation...... The clarion call for no war has not yet been officially sounded, and the internal forces have almost collapsed.
……
He Qingdong ate a wild vegetable banquet for the first time, and it was at his mother-in-law's house in the future, and his appetite was surprisingly good.
He Mu Sheng gave him 20 camellia dumplings with soup, pinched the grass seeds and glutinous rice balls for him; The fist-sized hemp heart stuffed Ai Qing dumplings and a half-adult palm-sized capsule-stuffed Ai Qing dumplings were also not left in the stomach, as well as fragrant and refreshing side dishes and a bottle of warm coconut milk, and He Wei couldn't help but worry about whether he would eat it.
Although He Mu was also quite surprised, but when she thought of He Qingdong's height and size, such a burly young man should not eat too much, and he was injured and just discharged from the hospital, shouldn't he eat more? So he got up and wanted to add another bowl of dumplings to him, but was stopped by He Wei: "Mom, don't add it to him, the grass seed rice balls are all glutinous rice, and the rice dumplings are also mixed with glutinous rice flour. What's more, his injuries are not complete, and he still eats less glutinous rice, which is easy to develop. ”
He Qingdong nodded kindly: "Weiwei is right, and I am indeed very full, I can't add more, Auntie, sit down and eat." ”
Mother He subconsciously returned to her seat, picked up a green ball and bit it, chewed a few bites, and came back to her senses: Why is the girl's words so weird? Without asking, she directly pulled herself and didn't let Tim, is she so familiar with Ah Qing?
After thinking about it like this, and then looking at the interaction between the girl at the dinner table and the eldest nephew of the He family, Mother He always felt that it was not only familiar, but also a little ...... What do you mean by that word? Intimacy? Intimacy?
Hiss - He Mu gasped, there was a rush to see the light of day, as if she had discovered some great secret......
In the second half of the meal, Mother He almost didn't know the taste, mechanically poked the chopsticks to eat the dumplings in the bowl, and saw that everyone had finished eating, she thought about it again and again, gritted her teeth, turned her head and called her daughter: "Weiwei, you come to the kitchen with your mother." ”
In fact, even if Mother He doesn't shout, He Wei will also go to the kitchen to help clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
It's just this shout, He Wei hasn't noticed anything yet, He Dashao, who is observant, knows in his heart, I'm afraid that my mother-in-law has seen what signs are, I thought about it, and decided to strike first, no matter what, I can't let Xiao Nizi be wronged, so I solemnly said to He's father and mother: "Uncle, auntie, I have something I want to discuss with you, why don't we go to the living room and sit down?" ”
While getting up, he squeezed the back of Xiao Nizi's hand soothingly, signaling her not to worry, everything is with him.
This scene happened to be seen by He Mu, and the shock in her heart was even worse. If it was just a guess just now, then now, she is nine percent sure: there is absolutely something between her daughter and the eldest nephew of the He family.
He Xidong was still gnawing on the phoenix claws in his mouth, and when he heard the words, he almost choked, and he confessed before he digested the rice? Can't wait?
Only Father He was still not in the situation, and happily followed He Qingdong to the living room: "Just say anything and be polite to us." ”
Mother He glared at her husband, her heart was in a mess, thinking about what she said for a while, if this was really the case, how would she react? Agree or disagree? Ah! What the same disagrees! The girl is only a few years old, so it's too early to think about this kind of thing. Also, didn't Ah Qing already have a partner? She remembered hearing him talk about it two or three years ago, and said that she was going to talk about marriage......
Thinking of this stubble, He Mu's face suddenly sank, and her eyes looking at He Qingdong were not so friendly. If you have a partner, you still come to provoke your own daughter, not to mention anything else, this attitude alone is not good! Absolutely not!
So, He Qingdong just groaned and began: "Uncle and aunt, Weiwei and I ......"
He Mu couldn't control her voice and shouted: "I am against it!" ”
Father He, who was taken aback: "......"
People haven't said anything yet, you oppose it, what are you opposed?
He Xidong: "......" poof! Mommy is mighty!
He Wei had just carried a stack of bowls to the sink when she heard the three words of her mother's octave, her hand shook and she knocked over a stack of bowls. (To be continued.) )
