Chapter 30: Son-in-law
When the Guo family heard the voice, they all went out to see.
Jiang Minghui hurriedly shouted: "Dagui, come and help!" ”
Guo Dagui ran down barehead and asked with a smile: "What good things?" ”
Daddy Wang smiled: "Why isn't it a good thing, a basket of charcoal!" ”
The voice was full of envy.
While talking, he had already teamed up with Jiang Minghui to carry the bamboo basket ashore.
The dumb has come downhill, squatting on the springboard to wash spinach.
Jiang Minghui couldn't wait to talk to him.
At this time, Guo Daquan also came, and he was very grateful to Father Wang for sending his sister-in-law to the door.
Father Wang hurriedly said that it should be, and only after a few words of greeting did he rocked the boat and left.
The Guo brothers lifted the basket of charcoal uphill and went home.
Jiang Minghui waited for the dumb to wash the dishes, and then he took Guo Jian and Guo Qiao back with her.
Seeing that he was dumb and looking at him, he should have wondered why he came so early, so he explained: "I bought charcoal, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to catch the boat if I left late, so I closed the door early." As he spoke, he patted the burden on his back and whispered, "I also bought you something good." ”
But he didn't say what it was.
A dumb gaze slipped across his face.
He smiled and said, "I'll show you when I go in." ”
After speaking, he asked her: "You pick spinach, why are you cooking today?" ”
Dumb nodded.
Guo Daquan's brothers had already arrived at the bottom of the corridor, put down the bamboo basket, and everyone else gathered around to watch, but Ruan and Guo Qin were missing.
Seeing Jiang Minghui and Qing Du coming, Wu smiled and complained: "This charcoal is so expensive, right?" Spend money! You can't make so much money in a day when you open a shop, so buy this. Go back and settle accounts for a month, and you don't have any money to make, depending on what you tell your family! ”
Guo Shouye asked: "Why did you come so early?" ”
Jiang Minghui said: "The door will close at noon today. ”
Guo Shouye said: "Isn't this nonsense! How can you just close your business casually? It doesn't matter if you come here, you have to wait until later, when there are fewer people on the street, and then close the shop. It's not that there is no boat back, there are several boats a day. What are you anxious about? ”
Jiang Minghui said embarrassedly: "There is charcoal today." Usually I take the last boat. ”
Wu Shi hurriedly persuaded: "It's all here, and what are you doing?" ”
Because he turned around and instructed Guo Daquan: "Daquan, go catch a chicken and kill it." ”
Jiang Minghui hurriedly stopped: "Don't catch chickens!" I bought the meat. ”
As he spoke, he followed everyone into the house, unburdened and put it on the table.
Opening the baggage, he first took out a single-handle iron pan that was only one lap larger than the plate and handed it to Qingdu, "This is the pot you want." Is it well done? ”
Qingmu took it and saw that it was exactly the style she wanted, so she nodded.
Jiang Minghui smiled, took out a coarse porcelain hand stove, and said to her softly: "I bought this for you to cover your hands." Lo and behold, there is a lid here, and the hot charcoal is placed in it, so that it can be kept from cold for a long time, and the charcoal ash is not spilled. I originally wanted to weave a cover for the outside, but I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to do it. I think it's better for you to make a cloth cover, which looks good on it, is not hot to hold, and is clean, and can be removed and washed, so I didn't do it. ”
Qingdue put down the pot, and took the small hand stove with a lid to watch.
Jiang Minghui saw that her eyes lit up a little, and he knew that she liked it, and he liked it. Then he took out a small packet of hemp candy and handed it to Guo Qiao, "Divide it with my brother." ”
Guo Qiao said happily: "Hey! Uncle Minghui. ”
Finally, Jiang Minghui took out a piece of pork wrapped in waste paper.
Wu has been watching, his eyes full of joy, but his mouth can't help complaining.
She was afraid that her son-in-law would spend too much money and would not be able to explain it to her family.
Guo Dagui smiled: "Oh, mother, don't say it." This is also Minghui's heart. Usually when he comes, we don't kill chickens. He bought meat for us to eat, and he should have it. He turned to Cai's again, "Sister-in-law, burn dried bamboo shoots with meat at night." ”
Jiang Minghui hurriedly said: "That's it." I didn't dare to come, because the chickens ran away when they saw me. ”
Everyone burst into laughter, and even Guo Shouye couldn't help laughing.
Seeing that Cai Shi took the meat and walked out, Qing Mu hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
She asked Guo Dayou to help make a wooden hammer two days ago, and then took it out, washed and wiped the meat dry, cut off the fatty meat, left only the lean meat, cut it into several strips, and put it on a stone slab, and let the third brother Guo Dagui smash it hard until it was smashed.
Everyone wondered why they were bothering.
Only Cai's thought that Qingdue must be making something fresh to eat, and let her do it, so that she can eat well without cooking. After thinking about it, he said to Guo Dagui: "Little sister is smashed, third uncle, you can smash it." The little sister must be delicious, otherwise she can ask the third uncle to smash meat and play on a cold day? ”
Everyone thinks about it, but it's not, and every time Qing Du makes new tricks, it's delicious.
Wu was busy and called his youngest son, "If you are expensive, you will listen to your sister, and you will smash it quickly." ”
Cai Shi said earnestly to Qing Du: "Little sister, sister-in-law will help you." Just say what you want your sister-in-law to do. ”
Dumb said: "Dig celery." ”
Cai's smile suddenly froze.
It turned out that this celery was not ordinary celery, but was planted in autumn, and after winter, it was completely buried with soil to protect even the top of the celery. Celery is protected by soil, so it does not freeze to death, and slowly fades green in the soil, becoming white and tender. Waiting for the cold winter wax moon to dig out, fried and eaten crispy and sweet.
The dish is delicious, but it is rare to get.
The dug celery has a lot of mud and needs to be carefully washed with water.
In winter, the water is cold and biting, and you can imagine how painful this work is.
Cai's words were released, and he couldn't shirk and hide anymore.
Besides, her mother-in-law was in front of her, and she didn't dare.
If you don't go, do you instruct your sister-in-law to get it herself?
That mother-in-law had to scold her to death!
wanted to push it on Ruan's body, but Ruan had been weaving cloth in the house, and he didn't come out to join in the fun. Unlike her, she can't wait to run out when she hears the voice. She couldn't sit still, and would rather cook than sit in front of the loom for hours and do the same thing; Cooking rice can run around, much looser.
There was no way, so she had to find a basket and a hoe and go to the vegetable garden.
Here, the dumb was not idle, he cut the fat meat with his hands and put it in the pot to refine the oil.
On the other hand, he asked Wu to burn a wood stove and put it at the kitchen door; She mixed the flour with the eggs, sprinkled some shallots, moved a small bench and sat down in front of the stove, spreading the pancakes with the pan she had just bought.
It's also a delicate job that needs to be done unhurriedly.
The round cakes are each the size of a teacup.
The dumb spread out one after another, all stacked in bamboo plates.
Guo Qiao and Guo Jian squatted beside their sister-in-law, staring without blinking.
"Sister-in-law, I want to eat a piece."
Guo Jian saw that he didn't ask them to taste it as before, so he couldn't help but plead in a low voice, looking pitiful, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"It's not good yet." Dumb and dumb.
Guo Jian wondered, obviously it has been laid out, how can you say that it is not good?
"I want cabbage to eat." Dumb and dumb.
"I see." Guo Qiao suddenly said, "The dish hasn't been fried yet." ”
Qing dumbly glanced at her and nodded.
Guo Qiao was very proud, so he told Guo Jian according to his understanding: When the vegetables are fried, they are wrapped in the cakes that are spread like dumplings, and they are cooked and eaten in the pot.
"Oh, eat dumplings!" Guo Jian also understood.
Dumb is misunderstood, and he doesn't explain, anyway, he will know when he eats.
Outside, Guo Dagui waved a hammer to hammer meat, and the Guo brothers gathered around to watch the strangeness.
Jiang Minghui looked at it for a while and felt tasteless, and ran to the dumb side.
"Little sister." He called sweetly.
Qing Du glanced at him and continued to spread the cake.
Jiang Minghui squatted down beside her with a smile.
Watching her do anything made him feel like it.
She didn't speak, and he didn't feel bored.
"Pancakes?" He asked, looking at the stack of pancakes.
"You have to wrap the stuffing and cook it like dumplings." Guo Qiao answered for her sister-in-law, ran away while kicking off, and after a while, brought a small stool and put it behind Jiang Minghui's buttocks, "Uncle Minghui sit." ”
Jiang Minghui hurriedly took a step back, sat down, and boasted: "Qiao'er is really sensible." ”
Guo Qiao pursed his lips and smiled, squatted down and continued to stare at his sister-in-law's cake.
Jiang Minghui looked around and suddenly asked, "What about the diligent baby?" ”
Everyone is busy making food, and Guo Qin is not seen, which is too strange. In the past, he would have jumped up and down, more active than anyone else.
was dumb and silent, anyway, if she didn't say anything, someone would answer.
However, Guo Qiao secretly glanced at her, and pretended not to hear it, looking like a ghost.
Jiang Minghui didn't notice it, and asked Guo Jian again: "What about your brother?" ”
Guo Jian replied honestly: "Kneel." ”
Jiang Minghui was puzzled: "Kneeling? ”
Guo Jian said: "Well, kneel on the washboard." ”
Jiang Minghui smiled and said, "What good things did this monkey do?" ”
Qingdu, still didn't speak, and was bent on spreading the cake.
Guo Qiao couldn't hold it back, she thought that her brother had already said it anyway, not her first, so she said it crisply: "He scolded my sister-in-law!" The grandparents were angry, and the uncle punished him for kneeling, and he didn't give him food at noon. ”
Jiang Minghui asked in astonishment: "He scolded...... You? ”
The last word looked dumb and asked.
Guo Jian continued: "My brother scolded my sister-in-law for being a 'dumb person'. ”
At this time, Jiang Minghui was not only stunned, but also angry, and asked, "What is he doing to scold my sister-in-law?" ”
"He is dead! I haven't cleaned up his itchy skin these days! ”
Wu walked over and said with a calm face.
This matter starts with teaching his nephews and nieces to read and write.
Dumb can't teach students and is not a good teacher.
In her previous life, because she was born dumb, her parents worked hard to educate her, and it was impossible to follow the school's systematic curriculum, so she could only start from the surrounding environment and guide her to intuitively understand personnel.
Therefore, the education of Guo Qin and others began in this way.
Teach them to recognize their own names first, then their family names; Then the name of the village, market town, county, prefecture, and state in which it is located; Then there are the things around us: chickens, ducks, geese, cows, all kinds of vegetables, all kinds of crops, dishes and chopsticks used, clothes worn, tables and chairs to sit on, beds to sleep on, rowing boats, etc., so that the scope is gradually expanded, supplemented by simple poetry recitation.
Teach them to read first, then teach them to write.
With her unverbal nature, it was impossible for her to teach and explain in detail repeatedly, but she usually read it once, then write it to them, and then let them learn to copy it, and she went about her own business. When I have time, I'll come back and ask them what they've learned.
