After gossiping with Gui Qiu, Gui Chongyang did not go back to the house, but went to the kitchen with Gui Qiu.

The person in charge of the kitchen is not Gui's second grandmother, nor is it Yang's, but Zhou Dingxiang, who came to Gui's house for the first time.

Originally, there was no reason for guests to help with the work when they first came to the door, but who asked Zhou Dingxiang to come to the Gui family today in the name of "helping the cook"?

The kung fu on this stove can't be faked at all, Yang was originally in charge, looking at Zhou Dingxiang's nimble hands and feet, and good knife skills, he was embarrassed to let her give up his hand again, so he gave up the position of the master.

Mei Shi and Mei Duo were helping in the kitchen, and both of them had already heard Gui Chongyang talk about the Zhou family, and they were very attentive to Zhou Lilac between their words.

Yang is here, but he didn't expect this place at all. It's really the condition of the Gui family, and the country girls dislike it, let alone think about the girls in the town. Her value for Zhou Dingxiang is the respect of a half-learned chef for Zhou Dingxiang's family skills.

Zhou Lilac is generous, and she is not afraid of the scrutiny of several women.

In the countryside, the upper seat is eight plates and eight bowls, the middle seat is six plates and six bowls, and the lower seat is four plates and four bowls. The Gui family was just about to get up, and they didn't swagger, but prepared six dishes and six bowls in the middle seat.

two plates of cold vegetables, cold radish skin and mustard; Four dishes of stir-fried, stir-fried rape, fried shredded eggplant, fried pork shredded lentils, toon stall eggs; Four bowls of small stews, stewed radish in broth, tofu boiled in shrimp skin, stewed chicken offal, stewed black fish, and two bowls of stewed chicken with mushrooms and Sixi meatballs.

It's almost noon, and the stew is all alive, and only a few small stir-fries are left ready to be cooked.

Yang looked at the sky outside, and said to Gui Qiu: "Go outside and take a look, why hasn't your eldest brother come back yet......"

Gui Qiu muttered: "It's not uncommon for my aunt to walk around with her mother's family, why do you want to get up?" ”

Yang hammered him: "Shut up, how about the elders, where are you paying attention to the juniors, don't let your grandmother hear!" ”

Gui Qiu rolled his eyes, pulled Gui Chongyang, who watched Zhou Lilac cooking with relish, and said, "It's really at home, what's there to pick up?" With the aunt here, the Geng family will come to blame! ”

Gui Chongyang is not very old, but he grew up reading the books of Confucius and Mencius, and he disapproves of Aunt Gui's behavior of alienating her parents. However, he has another advantage, that is, he can "compare his heart with his heart" and consider things from the perspective of others, rather than blindly condemning.

"Aunt Lobby was only a teenager at the time, and she was abandoned because of her family, and she couldn't think about it for a while. Relatives and flesh and blood, there are always important people who take a step back first. The fifth uncle did the right thing, the Gui family should take the initiative, the second grandfather and the second grandmother didn't say anything, but they were all looking forward to it. Gui Chongyang said.

Gui Qiu pouted: "I'm afraid they're going to be disappointed." Auntie's temper, you'll know it when you see it later, she is used to being a nonsense. You said that the Geng family sells meat, naturally looking forward to having long-term customers, the master's restaurant has a good business, and it uses more than ten catties of pork and twenty catties of pigs to go into the water every day, which is not a small customer. But since I went to learn to cook and let my aunt know, I made a fuss so that the Geng family stopped delivering the goods, and the master could only go to another family to deliver meat. I'm afraid that it has something to do with me, what do you mean by making a fuss? Could it be that I know his family, and I can still borrow money from my door? ”

is inseparable, Gui Qiu is good to say that Aunt Gui is not, but Gui Chongyang is not easy to say, but he knows in his heart that he is poor.

The two slipped out of the door, and Gui Qiu said disgusted words, but there was already a bit of anticipation in his expression.

At this time, I saw a figure walking alone in the distance, but it was Gui Chun who was walking alone.

Gui Chun's forehead was sweaty, his steps were hurried, and he was carrying a red and white hind leg meat in his hand, as well as two large pieces of pork liver.

Gui Qiu's face drooped suddenly: "The Geng family still refuses to come?" ”

Gui Chun wiped a handful of sweat and said, "There is a staff member in the town who has a birthday today, and he has ordered five pigs from his uncle's family, and he is busy over there." ”

Gui Qiu pursed his lips and didn't speak, this pig killing work is done by strong labor, the old uncle and grandmother of the Geng family are over sixty years old, and they still have to work? Even if the Geng family is busy, isn't there still Aunt Gui's female dependent.

It's just an excuse.

Gui Chun took the pork and pork liver to the kitchen, because the twelve dishes were not less, but there was no need to add anything, but in the hot summer, the pork and pork liver were easy to spoil, so they were rolled with salt and hung into the well.

Yang sighed and sent Gui Qiu away: "Go tell your milk and ask if you can set up a table." ”

Gui Qiu answered and went out.

Gui Chun saw that Zhou Lilac was there, he was a little restrained, drank a bowl of cold water, looked at Mei Duo twice and went out.

Gui Chongyang also followed Gui Chun out, and saw a naïve young man coming over, who was the one who opened the door for Zhong Xiaoyan before. He was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and he was none other than Yang Wu, the nephew of the Yang family and the cousin of the Gui Chun brothers.

The Yang family also lost two people in the "Difficulty of Nine Dings", and they were the Yang family's maiden father and brother. The Gui and Yang families are not only the second room, but the deceased Grandma Gui is also the daughter of the Yang family and the aunt of the Yang family.

It is no wonder that after the accident, the Yang family was kind, at that time, the adult male of the Gui family was only left with the crippled second grandfather of Gui, both rooms were women and children, both the old aunt and grandmother of the Yang family, and the younger aunt and grandmother of the Yang family, and the youngest Gui Chun brother was the nephew of the Yang family, and the Yang family was the eldest brother of the Yang family, Yang Jinzhu, the most generous and honest person, not only did not alienate the Gui family, but tried his best to help where he could, and would rather be rejected by the people in the village and still walk around with "Xigui".

The Yang Wu in front of him is Yang Jinzhu's youngest son, three years younger than Gui Qiu, one year older than Gui Chongyang, and thirteen this year.

"Big cousin, are you at the table?" Yang Wudao.

"It should be almost, wait a little longer." Gui Chun Road.

Gui Chongyang had a very good impression of the generous Yang family, took out a few red dates that Zhou Lilac grabbed for him, and handed them to Yang Wu: "Cousin eats dates." ”

Yang Wu looked at the red dates and swallowed his saliva, but he didn't push back, smiled and stretched out his hand to take it, but only took one: "I'll taste it, and my eldest cousin and cousin will eat it too." ”

Gui Chongyang nodded, stuffed a date into Gui Chun's mouth, and ate one himself.

Gui Qiu picked up the curtain from the main room and said, "Milk is called to serve the food, the eldest brother and Wuzi will send the two tables in the east house, and I will send the table in the west room." ”

The East House is a male guest, and the West House is a female guest.

As for Gui Chongyang, he did not arrange for him to serve the food, not because he was young and lacking strength, but because he was dressed in filial piety to avoid it.

Although it is a back-up seat, it is also a red seat, not only those who keep filial piety like Chongyang must be avoided, widows like Yang and nominally widows like Mei must be avoided.

Gui Chun and Yang Wu responded, turned around and went back to the kitchen.

The tray for the table is borrowed in advance, and four plates or four bowls can be placed on it at a time, so that three dishes can be served on one table.

The three young men were quick with their hands and feet, and they served the food one by one.

Gui Chongyang was not idle, and set up a table in the east wing of the Yang family with Mei Duo, because it was for his own family, so he did not leave the last two main dishes.

When Gui Chun and them went up to the last trip, Gui Er's grandmother followed and invited Zhou Dingxiang to the main room for dinner.

Zhou Dingxiang is a foreigner, and it is the first time to come to the door, so it is naturally not easy to treat slowly.

Zhou Dingxiang said bluntly: "Grandma, I'm shy and scared, and I want to stay here and eat with Sister Mei." ”

Gui Qiu happened to hear it next to him and rolled his eyes.

With such a loud voice, when she came in, she "grabbed the main house" in the kitchen, and the person who let everyone give her a hand was embarrassed to say that she was "shy and afraid of life"?

Gui's second grandmother felt that what the little girl said was right, a teenage girl, wasn't it when she was shy and didn't like to see outsiders, so she instructed Yang: "Let Zhou Yatou be tired, and stew a bowl of sugar water for the girl." ”

Yang nodded and said, "I stewed red date soup and it was surging in the well." ”

Second Grandma Gui nodded, said another word to Mei's, and then turned around and went back to accompany the guest.

Everyone in the kitchen went to the east chamber, and as soon as they sat down, Gui Qiu and Yang Wu also came over. Gui Chun is not there, so he should have been left on the table to accompany the guests.

Yang took a small bowl and sent it to Yang Wu: "Wu boy is tired, eat quickly." ”

In a small bowl, there is a fragrant chicken thigh.

Yang Wu looked at the chicken leg and swallowed saliva, but he still endured and pushed it to Gui Chongyang: "My cousin is small, this is for my cousin." ”

Gui Chongyang pushed it back again, didn't say anything about vegetarianism, pointed to the fried rape in front of him, and said, "I have a bad stomach these days, and I can't eat oil." ”

Yang Wu looked at a few elders, and when he saw that no one spoke, he believed it, looked at the chicken legs in the bowl, and smiled happily.

Gui Chongyang watched with envy, this is a real child, is he already old?
