When he saw the whole stewed big fish on the table, Jin Xi was slightly surprised in his heart, stretched out his chopsticks and grabbed a piece, which was delicious and smooth in his mouth, and the delicate and fragrant taste made people nostalgic, and he unconsciously sandwiched several pieces and ate them into his mouth.

"The fish was just caught today, it is very fresh, Xi'er likes to eat more, and then taste this shrimp, the meat is very elastic, and the taste is not worse than that of big fish." At the dinner table, Zhao frequently served vegetables to his youngest son, and the plates in front of Jin Xi quickly piled up.

Jin Xi did not shirk his mother's short temperament, and happily ate the dishes sandwiched by the Zhao family, and then said unhurriedly: "It is rare to see such a big fish in the river water in the village, and these shrimps are big one by one, and the price of selling them in the market is definitely not cheap. ”

"Silly boy, what do you say about hard work or not, you are the most promising in the family, and you will be content with the fragrant girl you eat." Zhao wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes excitedly, the youngest son has a high talent for reading since he was a child, and he was admitted to Xiucai at a young age, earning enough face for the old couple, and now she is walking in the village, who is not polite to call Xiucai aunt.

The most gratifying thing for Zhao is that among the five sons, the youngest son is always the most filial one, the first four eldest ones are married and have children, and after the separation, they each live a small life of their wives and children.

Especially the boss who has no conscience, went out to study for several years and didn't return, and didn't even ask someone to take a message home, I don't know if he really married another bride outside, causing her to be dumbfounded in front of her eldest granddaughter today, which will make her chest feel uncomfortable.

Jin Feng, who was eating fish and meat next to him, couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw his mother's appearance, or the fifth child's face was big, but a simple sentence made his mother cry, and his father was also excited and his old face was red, and he drank sorghum wine vigorously.

"Little brother eat more, the fish is very fragrant, this fish is big, there are almost no fine spines, you don't have to worry about eating, you spend your brain studying in the county, eat more good things to make up for it, and your father and mother can rest assured."

The mother didn't want to fight the old face, and the fish and shrimp snatched back from the sister-in-law's house were just to let the younger brother eat something good.

In fact, since the younger brother won the show, the life of the Jin family is much better than in the past, and all the fields in the family are hung in the name of the younger brother, and there is no need to pay taxes, which alone saves a lot of chewing.

Many people in Luhe Village also entrust the land to the name of the younger brother, and give the Jin family a certain amount of money as remuneration every year according to the rules.

Coupled with the silver sent by several elder brothers every year, as well as the pension money for his father, Jin Feng's abacus Balabala calculated, and he knew that there was no shortage of silver in the Jin Xi examiner's family.

But even so, my mother still went to the big house from time to time to search for a pass, either to ask for silver, or to take things, the eldest brother was not at home, and the silver in the big house could be saved and not paid, but who let the sister-in-law give birth to a capable girl.

It is not a secret in the village that Jin Yingle picked Ganoderma lucidum grass on Cuiyan Mountain, but at first they were all kept in the dark, until the big house built a blue brick and tile house to live in, and the Lingzhi grass was sold for a hundred taels of silver. For this matter, my mother was completely worried about the big house.

At that time, I went to my sister-in-law's house to ask for the silver for selling medicinal materials, but who knew that Shen would only cry and wipe his tears.

The mother does not believe in evil, and takes her to turn all the houses inside and out, in addition to finding some needles and threads, and newly bought materials for making clothes, that is, the kitchen is full of rice, and a few laying hens fed in the chicken coop.

Since the silver is gone, it's good to take some things back, the Zhao family was about to turn over the objects, but all the ones that were eaten were rolled back to the Jin family's courtyard, didn't the Shen family give birth to a capable daughter, since she didn't want to take the initiative to honor her grandmother, she took it herself. Since then, the Dafang family has never had a stable life, and from time to time they have to beware of the Zhao family coming to grab things.

Yingle also thought that if she hadn't built a blue brick house at that time, she wouldn't have had these troubles later, but she soon overturned her assumptions.

Compared with the thatched houses in the past, which were leaky, rainy, and snowy, it was more comfortable to live in a blue brick house, and she understood the truth that wealth was not exposed, but she didn't want her younger brothers and sisters to suffer with her.

"Sister, the fried crab is so delicious, will we eat this tomorrow?" Baotai drank the kelp soup with a small mouth, and forgot the trouble of not eating the big fish for a while.

Ying Xiao is happily eating steamed sea urchin, this round ball full of thorns like a hedgehog tastes so good after steaming, I don't know if my sister will do it tomorrow.

Seeing that his younger brothers and sisters were all looking at him, Yingle smiled and said: "It's not good to eat too many crabs, if you like your sister to make it for you next time you go home, the taste of the sea urchin will change after a long time, you must eat it while it is fresh, and tomorrow my sister will go into the mountain and catch a few and come back to steam them for you." ”

"Le'er, it's useless to be a mother, it's so hard for you to be alone." Shen put down the chopsticks after eating, the eldest daughter is capable, top-notch, if there is no birthmark on her face, she must be a good girl who is vying for marriage.

There was a knock on the door, and it didn't take long for Yinwen to come in and come back, and the fifth uncle Jin Xi came over with a gift, "The fifth brother is here, please come in." ”

Shen personally greeted him as he spoke, and Yingle ordered Yinwen to clean up the dining table, make tea and send it to the guests.

"Le'er, Xiao'er, Tai'er, come and see your fifth uncle." Behind Shen, a handsome man in a long robe walked in slowly, and the three of them hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects according to their mother's instructions.

Pulling up the three children, Jin Xi handed over the paper bag in his hand and said with a smile: "This is the pastry that the fifth uncle brought back from the county seat, do you like it or not?" ”

"Thank you, Uncle Five." The youngest Bao Tai happily took the pastry and unwrapped the oil paper outside, the sweet smell of the pastry came to his nose, and the little guy excitedly pulled the two sisters to eat the pastry together.

"Fifth brother, sit down and talk, it's time for dinner, if not, the sister-in-law will tell the maid to make some and send it, everything is ready-made." Facing the thoughtful and enthusiastic sister-in-law, Jin Xi felt guilty, the eldest brother never returned, no one knew what the situation was, but it was a difficult life for the sister-in-law to live alone with three children.

"Sister-in-law, sit down, I only came over after dinner, I asked from the third sister about the things during the day, my mother has been afraid of hard times in this life, so I love to search for things so much, as a junior Jin Xi can't say that my mother is not, please take care of my sister-in-law more."

The elegant man got up and shook it to the end, his mother was for him to study, so he developed a problem of loving to take advantage, regardless of his mother's fault, he had to make up for his mother's mistakes in private.
