The mothers-in-law who were assigned to the Huansha Pavilion didn't have much awe for the Zhang sisters, but they all knew that the Zhang sisters had just arrived, and it was inevitable that they would take care of them, so they didn't dare to make trouble at this time, even if they had countless bad ideas. Later, the Zhang sisters came, and at a young age, they actually knew that they were enweighed, and they even pressed the thoughts in their hearts.

Now not only Jia Jiu is here, but even Jia Yuanchun has come, and he has come here in person, all of them are in good spirits, and they dare not slack off in the slightest. Don't talk about others, just say Jia Jiu, because the slaves he was sold were not one or two, it is said that the master loves this daughter very much, and offended this young lady's slave, but a large family, a large family to sell out, and even relatives to sell out. offended this person, and the whole family waited to hang him.

As for the eldest girl, she said that she was from the second master's side, but she was raised by the old lady, she was a celebrity in front of the old lady, and she had a younger brother who was raised in front of the old lady. People say that dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and the sons of mice can make holes, and it is impossible for a person with such a powerful second wife to raise a useless daughter.

Looking at these minions, Jia Jiu didn't say much, but just said to Zhang Qian: "Can you use these girls and mothers-in-law easily?" If it doesn't go well, you tell me, I'll exchange it with you, and if there are those who are disobedient and want to find fault and plot to pinch you, you also tell me that I went back to my father and sold them. ”

Zhang Qian hurriedly said, "Let my aunt worry." They didn't do anything, they didn't have to change. ”

Zhang Qing also said: "Auntie, as the saying goes, you will see people's hearts over time. We've only been here for two days. Even if they have any plans, they won't make a fuss right now. ”

Jia Jiu said: "Yes." That's it. If any of them does evil in the future? Let you be wronged. You are not allowed to see outside, and you dare not come to sue me. ”

Zhang Qing smiled: "My nephew has written it down." If you are wronged in the future. I must be the first to talk to my aunt. Aunt although relieved. ”

Jia Jiu smiled and stopped talking. Here Zhang Qian asked people to move bamboo tables and chairs, invited Jia Yuanchun, Jia Jiu, and Xue Baochai to sit down, and asked the little girls to serve tea fruits, but Zhang Qing confessed and arranged for those mothers-in-law to boil water and kill chickens in the past.

Zhang Qian said: "When we were in the south, we liked to kill chickens at home the most, especially the blood tofu made of chicken blood, whether it was tofu soup or cold salad. It's all extremely delicious, but I don't know if my aunts are used to eating it. ”

Xue Baochai covered his mouth with a fan, frowned, and said, "Chicken blood? Sounds weird. ”

Jia Jiu said: "Fishy or not is secondary, I just need to taste good." ”

Zhang Qian smiled: "If you add ginger, it won't be fishy." This is a famous snack in our south, divided into two types: duck blood tofu and chicken blood tofu, which aunts must try. ”

As he was talking, he heard the clucking of the hen, and saw a woman holding the wings of the chicken in her left hand and pinching the back of the chicken's neck with her fingers. With a knife in his right hand, he slashed at the chicken's neck, and the chicken's blood gushed out and fell into the hot boiling water that had been mixed with salt water below.

The other mother-in-law looked up and was startled when she saw the girls all looking at this side. Fei also came over and pulled the mother-in-law who killed the chicken, and said, "I'm going to die, don't you look at who is here." It's bloody. What should I do if I scare the girl? ”

The woman was also startled, but stayed there with the chicken. A pair of eyes stole to look this way. Apparently he knew he had done something stupid.

Jia Jiu looked at where Jia Yuanchun and Xue Baochai were stupid, and said, "Big sister." Sister Bao, it looks like we're sitting in something wrong. Why don't we go fishing to the east? ”

Zhang Qian reacted and quickly apologized.

Jia Yuanchun and Xue Baochai were originally a little uncomfortable, and when they heard Zhang Qian's apology, they both said, "Don't get in the way." It's because we're too curious. You don't have to care so much. ”

Zhang Qian hurriedly asked someone to set up a pergola, spread out a bamboo mat, fetch fishing rods and bait, and asked someone to move the tables and chairs to the east, before inviting Jia Jiu, Jia Yuanchun, and Xue Baochai to sit down.

Xue Baochai calmed down, and then said: "Second sister, I looked stupid just now, but the second sister's face did not change." The courage of the second sister is really admirable. ”

Jia Jiu said with a smile: "Sister Bao praised it falsely, where did I come from to be so bold." It turned out that I was also very scared, but during the Dragon Boat Festival, I was the only girl in our family, and I had to prepare so many things alone. If I patronize and be afraid, I am afraid that Cong'er will be the first to cry and protest, and it is impossible to prepare for the completion of the matter on time. So, I just keep my head down and get busy, and when things are done, I won't be afraid to see these things again. ”

Jia Yuanchun said: "I see. People say that the daughter-in-law of Dongfu Rong is capable, and I don't think so. His body is also delicate, and every time after worshipping his ancestors, he always has to lie in the house for a few days, and he has to take care of his sister-in-law. If he is allowed to move places with his sister, he will have to deal with all the things alone, and he will have to take care of Cong'er, a leather boy. I'm afraid that it won't take two days for him to lie down. ”

Jia Jiu smiled: "How can this be compared? At least there are still clan affairs in the East Mansion. replaced me, and asked me to deal with those trivial things, and also be able to take care of the lonely and widowed old people in the clan, and to make everyone in the clan speechless. Otherwise, the old lady would not regard him as the first person among the great-granddaughters-in-law. However, his body is indeed not good enough, and it has been a year since he entered the door, and there has been no movement at all, so it is no wonder that Sister-in-law Zhen is a little anxious when she mentions it. ”

Jia Yuanchun said with a smile: "No, Brother Zhen is not young, and there is only one son under his knees, Rong'er, I don't know how anxious I am." By the way, second sister, I was at the old lady's place just now, and I heard that the eldest master was busy asking people to buy grapes, what is going on? ”

Jia Jiu saw that the little girl had finished the bait, flicked the fishing rod, and watched the hook fall into the water, but said, "It's not for the sake of worshipping ancestors." On the first day of the seventh month, the ancestors will be picked up, and then they will worship every day, until the ancestors are sent on the fifteenth, and the ritual in July is not over. Although Western wine is good, it is not home-made, and it is worse if it is directly used to worship ancestors. My father said that if we try it first, whether it succeeds or not, it is always a little bit of our mind to be our descendants, and if it really happens, there will be more things to get in hand with relatives in the future. Besides, grapes are loved by all ages in the family, and now that the grapes in the morning market have come up, it is not a bad thing to prepare more. By the way, Sister Bao, I remember that my sister's house is also a long house, right? How did my sister's family arrange this July festival? ”

Xue Baochai was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Although our family is a long house, my brother has not started a family and has not been crowned. According to the rules of our Xue family, the patriarch must be an adult who has been crowned and married, so before we entered Beijing, the position of patriarch had been handed over. It's not a clan branch, but even if you have a heart, you can only put two tables of wine. It is precisely because of this that my mother is so concerned about the Flower Festival, and wants to light an everlasting lamp for my ancestors and ancestors, so that we can be safe and successful. ”

Jia Jiu was taken aback and said, "But it's not mine, I shouldn't have mentioned this to my sister." ”

Xue Baochai shook his head and wanted to speak. I saw Zhang Qing coming over with two mothers-in-law with trays. Walking up to him, Tortoiseshell and Ruri hurriedly stepped forward to help. I saw that there was a sea bowl in each of the two trays, one was chicken blood soup, and the other was cold chicken blood tofu. There is also a mother-in-law in the back, carrying a food box with clean dishes and chopsticks inside. When I took it out, the bowl of chopsticks was still emitting white gas, obviously just scalded with boiling water.

Zhang Qian and Zhang Qing are two sisters, a spoonful of chicken blood soup, a spoonful of chicken blood tofu, the first bowl is dedicated to Jia Yuanchun, the second bowl is dedicated to Jia Jiu, and the third bowl is Xue Baochai's. The cold chicken blood tofu, Jia Yuanchun tasted it and didn't want it, but he still liked the chicken blood soup. As for Xue Baochai, he even told the two sisters: "I can't eat that much, just a little, I can taste it." ”

Only Jia Jiu had a good appetite, and he didn't care about the fishing rod, he sat at the table and started eating, and said: "I didn't pay attention to it before, it turns out that the taste of this chicken blood is so delicious, it's a pity." In the future, when I make chickens and ducks at home, I must keep this chicken blood and duck blood. I just don't know what the taste of this duck blood is, whether it is just as delicious. Big sister, Sister Bao, if you don't eat, I won't be polite to you. ”

Jia Yuanchun said: "It's okay, you are free." That's all I need for this bowl. ”

Xue Baochai saw that Jia Jiu was eating sweetly, and couldn't help but spoon the spoon again, and said: "I really envy the second sister, she has such a good appetite every day, but she has such a slender figure, which is really enviable." Although I like to eat this, I don't dare to eat more, for fear of gaining weight again. ”

Jia Jiu said: "Sister Bao, I don't think Aunt Xue looks fat, even my sister is just baby fat." Now it looks a little fleshy, and maybe it will fade one day in the future. Why should my sister care so much, living every day happily is the most important thing. ”

Xue Baochai said: "Second sister, you can't get fat by eating, I will get fat when I drink water." Every time I go out, what I am most afraid of is that someone will point fingers at me and say that I am a fat girl. ”

Jia Jiu smiled: "Sister Bao, I think you care too much about what you have and don't. If a person says right and wrong, it is right and wrong. The kind of people who orchestrate behind them are not good people in themselves, since they don't fit in with each other and go away, why care about them? There is a saying, the world slanders me, what do I bring? Let him follow him, and after ten years, you will see him. ”

Jia Yuanchun said: "Cousin, look at the second sister, who would have thought that he was a gourd with a sawed mouth before." Second sister, open your mouth and let me see how your teeth grow. ”

Who knows, Jia Jiu stopped suddenly, only to see him frowning and spitting the contents of his mouth into the small plate on the side. It's a front tooth!

PS: Grateful for the reward of the hunted heart. Before, the eldest aunt was bleeding like a river, and it was useless to lie down behind closed doors. Now make up for it. (To be continued......)
