Chapter 262: Heart Knot
Seeing that the hour was not early, Shen Nan and Liulang and the three of them collected the fishing rod.
Several people returned with wooden barrels loaded with them.
At the door of Shen's house, Shen Nan caught some fish from his bucket and put them into Liulang's bucket.
Most of the fish they caught were crucian carp and a few bream.
Qiduo hurriedly excused himself and was glared back by him.
She had no choice but to take it.
When passing by the Tan family's compound, Qiduo took all the fish sent by Shen Nan to the Zhao family, and Changsheng caught a lot, enough for the family to eat.
Seeing Qiduo sending the fish over, Zhao naturally showed a smile on his face, "Yo, what about the fish, you can keep it for yourself to eat." ”
Old Man Tan loves fish very much, and when he saw the fish, he also stroked the short beard under his chin and smiled, "Yes, seven girls, you don't need to send it to us, there is still pork sent yesterday." ”
And his smile has another meaning, but Qiduo doesn't know what to do.
Zhao quietly kicked Old Man Tan under the table, worried that Qiduo would really take the fish back.
How could Qiduo be the kind of person she thought, if she was reluctant, she wouldn't send the fish over, and responded with a smile, "Grandma, pork belongs to pork, this is fish, I know that Grandpa's favorite food is fish." I took it to my grandmother to try it, and stewed some fish soup to drink, which was very nourishing. ”
These words made Old Man Tan feel very comfortable when he heard this, and the smile on his face was even stronger, "Hehe, it's hard for the seventh girl to remember what grandpa likes to eat, but these fish were bought for a lot of money, right?" ”
"What does grandma like to eat, how dare we forget, these fish are caught." Qiduo responded respectfully, and said that Shen Nan called Liulang to fish.
"Ha Lu Ha. Rokuro also went fishing? Can he catch one? Old Man Tan laughed loudly. Asked with interest.
To Rokuro. He's really fond of it now.
"Poof." Qiduo also smiled, "Grandpa, Liulang is still young, it's not easy to hold the fishing rod steady, where can I catch it." These fish were given by Brother Nan, and a few were caught by Changsheng, and the two of them had good skills. ”
Old Man Tan smiled and said yes.
Zhao said, "Rokuro is too young. The next time there is such a thing, you have to tell Changsheng to watch carefully, the river is not as good as the shore, but there is no mistake. ”
"Mmmm, grandma, you have to remind us, we will talk to Changsheng." This word of concern made Qiduo feel warm.
When it comes to immortality, Old Man Tan can't help but say a few words about longevity, saying that this child looks good, has diligent hands and feet, knows the difference between respect and inferiority, and so on.
"That's right. Grandpa, the fourth uncle and the third brother can have a message back? Qiduo remembered this.
It's been a few days since the two of them left. I don't know if I got to Yicheng Mansion or not, and whether everything went smoothly on the road.
At the beginning, he told Tan Debao that he was good, and when he arrived at Yicheng Mansion, he immediately sent the news back.
Now I haven't received the letter, I don't know if they haven't arrived in Yicheng Mansion or some other reason.
Qiduo and their family were a little worried.
Old Man Tan shook his head, "Not yet, I've been thinking about this for the past two days, I don't know if they were delayed on the road, it stands to reason that they should have arrived a long time ago." ”
Seeing that he was also worried, Qiduo comforted him in turn, "Maybe the fourth uncle hasn't arrived yet, or the letter sent back is too slow on the road and hasn't reached us yet." ”
Old Man Tan nodded and said that there was also such a possibility.
Seeing that the matter was finished, Qiduo got up and went home first.
Looking at the fish swimming with their tails in the bucket, Old Man Tan said to Zhao, "Old woman, I'm not wrong, the boss's family is all filial, as long as there are any good things, they will not forget us." Therefore, in the future, you must be sincere to their family, and no more incidents will occur, otherwise I will not be the first to spare you. ”
Liulang and Shen Nan were fishing by the river, and he had long known about it.
It wasn't what he saw himself, but when he came back from Patriarch Tan's house earlier, he met a big man in the village on the way.
The big man smiled and said to him that he had fish to eat at noon.
He asked what was the matter, and the big man said, "Your little grandson and Changsheng have caught a lot of fish in the river, and you will definitely not be missing." ”
This happened to be heard by the Zhao family, and after the big man left, she said to Old Man Tan that the fish caught by Liulang and Changsheng would not necessarily be given to them.
But Old Man Tan said that he should send it.
So the two went back to the main room and waited, and when they saw Qiduo carrying a bucket into the yard, Old Man Tan smiled proudly at Zhao.
He laughed, of course, not because there were fish to eat, but because of the seven flowers of their filial piety!
Qiduo didn't know that the two of them thought like this, otherwise they would have sighed and be difficult!
After these things, and a lot of benefits from the Qiduo family, the Zhao family finally understands a lot now, and they don't hate and hate Qiduo and their family as much as before.
She had no objection to Old Man Tan's words.
But with her hedgehog-like temperament, it is impossible not to refute a few words, "Dead old man, you know all day and night about nonsense, I haven't done anything to live with their family recently, the Kang family came over, and I also politely entertained me, for what, I admit that it is the main thing to have a good relationship with the Kang family, but if I do this, don't I also earn face for the eldest family?"
and the last time Erxia set up a marriage, I didn't help inside and out, but I didn't touch the old family with a needle. Later, the leftovers, the boss said they would give them to me, I thought about it, but I just kept a little of it, and let him share the rest with some of the main families in the village. ”
In the countryside, the people who hold the wedding banquet will have a lot of uneaten meat dishes left after the finale.
Don't underestimate these leftover meat dishes, generally only those who are particularly close to the host's family, or who have helped the host's family a lot, the host's family will send some dishes over.
And the people who receive the dishes are happy, and it is rare to see meat all year round, how can they not be happy to see these meat dishes.
However, in modern times, people's living standards have improved, and there is meat to eat every day, and people are not much interested in these dishes.
"Well, you've done a pretty good job lately. Something like that. Old Man Tan affirmed what the Zhao family had done recently.
Zhao snorted. "That's it."
Old Man Tan took a few deep puffs of dry tobacco. looked up at Zhao, "Old woman, all these years have passed, and there are some things you should let go." Compared with other daughters-in-law, the eldest daughter-in-law is capable, but she doesn't have too many eyes, which is very rare. ”
Zhao sighed lightly and waved his hand. "There are some things that I have my own measure, and I don't need you to say more. I'll go and ask the third daughter-in-law to kill two fish, and burn them for you to drink at noon. ”
She got up, took the barrel, and went out of the main room.
Old Man Tan looked at his wife's back and sighed heavily, alas, when will I be able to let go of what happened back then!
He continued to smoke.
When the seven sisters and brothers returned home, the Xu family was very happy to see that they had caught these fish. smiled and praised Changsheng.
Of course, don't forget to praise two sentences of Rokuro.
"Duo, pick a few big ones. Send it to your grandmother, it's so fresh, let them taste it too. Xu looked at the fish and said to Qiduo.
"Mother, I've already sent it over." Qiduo smiled and said about sending the fish.
"Hehe, that's good." Xu was very pleased to stroke Qiduo's hair.
Changsheng carried the wooden bucket containing the fish to the kitchen.
Qiduo also followed to the kitchen, and Erxia and Liuju were preparing lunch.
When they saw her enter, the two sisters asked the fish how to do it.
Seven flowers let them make their own decisions, anyway, they eat at home, and they don't need to pay attention to anything.
The fish is fresh, and it will not taste bad no matter how you do it.
Erxia and Liuju decided to braise two at noon, stew two more at night, and then use fish soup to make noodles, which must be fresh.
Qiduo has no opinion, while she is helping to choose vegetables, she asks about Erlang, "Eldest sister and second sister, every time the second brother comes back to our house to get bean sprouts, did he go into the house where the bean sprouts were made?" Or did he ask you how the sprouts are made? ”
"Ah, Duo, why are you asking about this?" Liuju asked curiously.
Seven told the story of the rotten bean sprouts in the four jujube barrels.
"What? They are too hateful, they even learn from our family to send bean sprouts, too much, and they won't let the second brother get the bean sprouts next time. Liuju said angrily.
"Second sister, don't be angry, the third uncle and their family want to learn how to make bean sprouts, this is their freedom, we don't have the right to scold and interfere with others. Maybe it's not just their family that's learning now, but others are also learning. Qiduo smiled and comforted.
"Hmph, but the bean sprouts were made by our family first, so they can't follow behind." Liuju puffed out his cheeks, a little rude.
Erxia just groaned and didn't speak for the time being.
Qiduo smiled and persuaded her, taking her own learning to cook various dishes as an example, saying that many dishes are made by others first, according to her words, these dishes can't be made by yourself?
"yes, Ju, don't be angry just yet. Duo is right, we can't control what others want to do.
We just want to find out now whether the third uncle's bean sprouts came up with it on their own, or whether the second brother deliberately came to our house to take a peek. Erxia opened her mouth to persuade Liuju.
Liuju nodded, "I know." ”
But I felt a little sad in my heart, as if someone had stolen my own things.
Erxia and Liuju echoed the situation every time Erlang came to the house.
I don't usually think there's anything, but now that I think about it, he really has some problems.
Like the house where bean sprouts are produced, except for a few people in Qiduo's family, no one else is allowed to enter, but Erlang ran in several times.
This had never happened to Saburo before.
Erlang once deliberately marveled at the six oranges, saying that it was really amazing, mung beans and soybeans could grow such delicious buds, and I don't know how to do it.
However, Liuju was not fooled and didn't say anything.
"Now it seems that Erlang and they don't know the key steps of sending bean sprouts, from now on, we will send the bean sprouts to the front yard, and Erlang is not allowed to enter our yard again, and the house where the bean sprouts are usually sent must be locked. They want to steal from school, and we don't let him succeed. Qiduo said.
If Erlang and they did it above board, she wouldn't say anything, maybe she would tell them the method, and she didn't expect to make a fortune from bean sprouts anyway.
But if he does these small actions now, then I'm sorry!
Erxia and Liuju naturally agreed.
They also told Tan Dejin and his wife that everyone has united the front, and the method of making bean sprouts will definitely be hidden without leakage.
In the next few days, Erlang was as uncomfortable as a kitten, and he wanted to go to Qiduo's house to take a closer look, but now that the bean sprouts were delivered to the front yard, he had no reason to go again.
He had to endure it for the time being, waiting for the opportunity to go over and take a peek.
Time is in a hurry, and soon it will be the day for Wen Xiuyi to compete with Shen Nan. (To be continued......)
