Chapter 80: Pearl's Request

"Woo woo, second aunt. Woo woo, second aunt. Zhu'er stood at the door with tears on her face and red and swollen eyes, holding Huan'er in her arms.

Everyone was eating, Dong Xiaoman saw that the two children were all bitter and hurriedly put down their chopsticks and stepped forward to take the ring: "What's wrong, but your mother beat you?" ”

Bao'er pouted and clenched her little fists angrily and said, "My mother is so unreasonable, it's just unreasonable." ”

"Nonsense, don't say that your parents are not." Dong Xiaoman feigned anger and beckoned the two children in: "But it's time to eat?" ”

Bao'er sat on the chair and shook her head, "My mother said that she wouldn't let the two of us eat, and she beat my sister." ”

Dong Xiaoman put the child in the stroller, Huan'er was a little older than Jue'er, and the two children were lying on the bed and playing with each other. Dong Xiaogang handed the chopsticks to the two children and asked jokingly, "What trouble did you two get into again?" ”

Bao'er took a large piece of sauce pork belly with chopsticks, and said while chewing angrily: "When I was eating, I said that our family's food was not even comparable to the donkey of the second aunt's family, and my mother was unhappy." ”

As he spoke, he chewed and swallowed it a few times, and then pointed at Zhu'er with his small chin and said, "My mother was not happy, and she hit my sister's head with chopsticks and cursed." I couldn't get angry and said a few words for my sister, and my mother kicked the two of us off the table and didn't let us eat. ”

Xiaohu frowned: "I see that there seems to be a red mark on Zhu'er's face, isn't it beaten?" ”

Zhu'er held her tears and pulled the porridge silently. Bao'er said, "It's my fault, I told my sister, 'Let's go to the second aunt's house and not come back'." When my mother heard this, she rushed out and beat my sister, saying that my sister had taught me badly. ”

After speaking, he muttered: "When I was naughty, my mother beat my sister." Said that my sister didn't teach me well. I don't know what Lu Dao is for, second aunt, wasn't my sister born to my mother? Didn't Aunt Liu just come? ”

Seeing that Bao'er couldn't understand and was aggrieved, Dong Xiaoman didn't know how to explain to him. just smiled dryly: "Your mother is too tired." He has to take care of his family and the work in the fields. You have to think more about her, if you like the second aunt, play here more, and don't hurt your mother's heart by saying anything else. ”

As he spoke, he put a chopstick dish for Zhu'er and put it in the bowl: "You are also a big girl." Later, the second aunt will teach you more when she is free, and when you get home, you will show your mother your craftsmanship, and your mother will praise you. ”

Zhu'er ate the food silently, looking at her sullen appearance, Dong Xiaoman knew that this child was afraid that he had already had a knot in his heart.

Xiaogang Xiaohu went out to work, and Dong Xiaoman asked Bao'er to push the crib around the yard. Then she started to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and Zhu'er was already in the kitchen with her arms rolled up and her sleeves ready to work.

"I'll teach you how to cook from today, you're also a ten-year-old girl, and it's a test to get married in the future." Dong Xiaoman looked at the sensible Zhu'er. Stretched out her hand and pulled her hair: "My daughter's family must also be able to dress up, and the second aunt will teach you how to draw eyebrows and makeup." You shouldn't be bad at the work of a female worker, the second aunt's craftsmanship in this area is really ugly, but I can't hand it over to you. ”

Zhu'er blushed and didn't make a sound, but lowered her head for a while before she raised her head and said, "Second aunt, is it possible that I won't be beaten and scolded when I get married?" ”

Dong Xiaoman was stunned for a moment and said gently: "No one can see you clearly for no reason." I can't beat and scold you for no reason. You have to be able to do it yourself, and you have to fight for your own happiness. ”

"Second aunt, teach me, I don't want to be bullied by my in-laws when I get married in the future. My mother doesn't care about me, and my mother-in-law won't give me the decision if she bullies me in the future. But I know that you are powerful, and people as powerful as the second uncle listen to you. My mother, although my mother is more powerful, but my father still accepted a concubine. ”

Zhu'er twisted and pinched the corners of her clothes, and looked at Dong Xiaoman pitifully with a frown: "My mother doesn't know anything, she can only scold." But you can do anything. I can see it clearly. I want to be like my second aunt, I don't want to be like my mother. ”

Dong Xiaoman didn't expect that the little child actually had his own values, so he nodded his little nose and said, "What's the difference between me and your mother, where am I as good as you say." What do children know? ”

Zhu'er turned around to brush the dishes with her mouth in her mouth, and said while brushing the dishes: "Although I don't understand anything. But I can see it. There are so many aunts in the village, which one doesn't listen to the mother-in-law at home? Which one didn't do something wrong and was beaten by the man in the family? Which one is not willing to bully people and love to chew the root of the tongue? But the second aunt is different, my grandmother always says that the second uncle was hooked by you and didn't listen to ***. My mother said that the daughter-in-law in the village belonged to the second aunt and had never been beaten by a man, and said that the second uncle was eager to raise you. Aunt Liu said, the second uncle's money must have been given to you, you should be this family. ”

Without waiting for Zhu'er to finish speaking, Dong Xiaoman interrupted: "So you want to learn from me?" Be an unfilial daughter-in-law in your grandmother's mouth? ”

Zhu'er shook her head: "I don't think the second aunt is unfilial, I think the second aunt is very good." You are very good to us, grandma doesn't like anyone, grandma only likes her brother. ”

Dong Xiaoman sighed: "Zhu'er, you are extreme." Do you want to learn from me, just how to stay away from your mother-in-law and concubine in the future? Zhu'er hurriedly put down the work in her hand, blinked her eyes and said, "I want to learn from my second aunt how to be a powerful person, and I won't be bullied no matter where I go in the future." It's just that someone is bullying, too, also,"

Looking at Zhu'er's stammering and blushing cheeks, Dong Xiaoman asked curiously, "What?" ”

Zhu'er closed her eyes and said, "You can also let your own man protect herself." After speaking, he opened his eyes and saw Dong Xiaoman's surprised gaze, and choked up: "My father and mother don't love me, I'm afraid that if I marry someone in the future, my mother-in-law won't hurt me and will bully me." I don't have a good mother like my second aunt, and Bao'er doesn't know if Lu Dao can be like Uncle Xiaogang, so I want to find one, find someone like my second uncle. I don't want to be scolded every day, woo woo, I don't want to. ”

Dong Xiaoman stepped forward to hug Zhu'er in distress, and said softly: "Okay, okay, the second aunt will teach you how to be a great girl, okay?" In the future, we will definitely be able to find a family that cherishes us, and then we will marry in style. ”

No matter how much Dong Xiaoman despises the Li family's patriarchy, at least she can see that she loves her daughter for the sake of her daughter's name. It's just that she has been affected by the water that her daughter is spilling, no matter what Li thinks, she should be a good elder for Zhu'er's sake to teach her what she knows.

Since she agreed to Zhu'er, she must first teach her what her contemporary daughter's family should know. The female worker herself said that it was not good at all, but fortunately, her cooking skills were good, and she was influenced by modern makeup in later generations, and the method of creating a little beauty was still good.

Zhu'er has long slender eyes, which are not big, but if you apply eye makeup, they will be very charming and seductive. The key to how many clothes are not is whether they fit well, and whether they can promote their strengths and avoid their weaknesses. Zhu'er's breasts have just begun to develop, but the nutrition must not be able to keep up, and it is basically average, but fortunately, the waist is thin and the legs are long.

At noon, while cooking, Dong Xiaoman slowly handed over how to cook. At this time, there are few types of vegetables, but if the dried vegetables can be made delicious, are you afraid that fresh vegetables will not be able to do well?

Only then did Zhu'er realize that cooking was also exquisite, just like a carrot. When to shred, when to dice, and when to cut into pieces, that is all particular.

Steamed fish, stewed fish, grilled fish, and stir-fried stewed vegetables are also different. Dong Xiaoman knows that Dao Zhuer helps the Li family work all the year round, although he is no stranger to the kitchen, but many habits are not good.

Over time, Zhu'er's cooking skills have grown greatly.

"Pearl, you're doing a good job right now. You see, this braised pork is not greasy, chewy, and the color is good, and you will have an appetite when you look at it. Xiaohu smiled and praised Zhu'er, and Xiaogang also said, "Sister, you have accepted a good apprentice." ”

Zhu'er lowered her head in shame and said embarrassedly: "The second aunt still teaches me well, and she is willing to give me materials." ”

Dong Xiaoman encouraged: "Aren't you sensible? If you make a dish three times, you can ** not leave ten, I think that if you follow a master, you may enter the palace as an imperial chef. ”

"I know that the family is very poor now, and the second aunt's family is not rich, all of them were called by Uncle Xiaogang from the mountains. I know that I have to cherish it, and I can't live up to my second aunt's wishes. "Who is willing to waste themselves? The first time I made the braised pork black and charred, and the second time I made it soft and rotten, this time I barely passed the test. This is also the second aunt, if it was her own mother, I am afraid that she would have beaten the burning stick a long time ago.

"I'll just say you're a big kid, so what's the point? If you do it well, they will eat it well, and if you don't do it well, they will eat it. You have saved me a lot of things by cooking, and the second aunt has to thank you. Dong Xiaoman comforted Zhu'er, and Bao'er on the side said with a smile: "Second aunt, you will make delicious meat dishes next time." Just let my sister make some snacks, don't let us try such a good meat. ”

Everyone laughed, and Zhu'er lowered her head embarrassedly. Xiaohu grinned and said, "But how did I find out that Zhu'er seems to have become beautiful?" ”

Zhu'er looked up suddenly and saw that it was Xiaohu praising herself, and she was blushing like something. Twisting the corners of his clothes, he was nervous, happy and embarrassed.

"Of course, our pearls are not ugly. Isn't it a beauty to dress up a little, don't you look much prettier? ”

Dong Xiaoman proudly praised his apprentice, and didn't notice Zhu'er's small movements at all. Zhu'er is now very clean with Dong Xiaoman, taking a bath at home for fear of being scolded, taking a bath at Dong's house, Dong Xiaoman doesn't care. Anyway, the two stupid boys in the family have the strength, so go chop wood and pick up trees.

I don't know when Lu Dao started to run around with those children outside, always around Dong Xiaoman, either cooking or watching the children. The little face is white and clean, and the hair is always combed in a different style. Dong Xiaoman also specially got her a Qi bangs, which looked small and very cute.

There is no embellishment of any jewelry, and the patches of the clothes are also cleverly sewn with graphics to show. For example, if the cuffs are broken, a circle of plum blossoms is embroidered.

Of course, the clean and gentle and virtuous appearance is much better than those girls who are crazy and dusty all day long. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )RQ
