Chapter 72. Wishful thinking
readx;
Seeing that the fat woman seemed to be afraid of herself, Daddy Liuda used her hand to support the gold-embroidered staff hat, shook the silver-threaded staff shirt, and said according to the joke in the play: 'Who is standing next?' But my younger brother and sister of the Liu family? β
Fat woman: '......' said in her heart, my mother, I can't see it so close? This old thing either has a sick eye, or it is deliberately putting on a show. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
But on the surface, the fat woman looked at the maids standing solemnly on both sides, and then looked at the old man Liu who was sitting in front of her, and had to squeeze out a flattering smile, and said: "Oh, big brother, your eyes are really good, who would I be if it weren't for your brother and sister?" Hehehe! β
The old man Liu Da was relieved, to be honest, he was ready just now, quietly pulled the hem of the placket, and was ready to jump off the chair and escape when the other party was mad, the destination was to hide behind his son, but at a glance the fat woman was so obedient, the old man knew it in his heart, stroked his increasingly flowing goatee and said: 'Oh, it turned out to be really a brother and sister, I didn't expect you to come over on the first day of the new year, but it surprised me a little! β
'What is there to be surprised, what is there to be surprised?' Aren't we all family? Besides, on the first day of the new year, I came to pay my brother's New Year's greetings, which is also a natural thing! You say, don't you, Liu Neng? When the fat woman saw her man pestle like a piece of wood, she couldn't help but hate her teeth, and said in her heart, why are you a big old man so useless, just let me talk to this girl, but you won't let a fart go!
Liu Neng didn't expect her mother-in-law to ask herself, and she couldn't help but be a little stunned, where did the fat mother-in-law ask her opinion before, whether she was talking or doing things, what should she say now?
So he pondered for a moment and said, 'What's that?' It's not the first day of the Lunar New Year, so the two of us brought some eggs and came to ...... Come and see you! It's all under the head of the family, it's not big, but it's delicious! β
Liu Neng won't play any tricks. Something to say, and then said: "Originally, I wanted to bring a big basket, but my mother-in-law gave up...... Reluctant; It's good, it's just six eggs, it's a bit embarrassing, big brother, you just take it! β
Liu Neng's words provoked Xiaocui, Xiaohong and others next to him to cover their mouths and laugh. The fat woman was even more embarrassed, scolding the man in her heart, why don't you open the pot, why are you talking about this!
So he hurriedly replied: 'Oh, what is this talking about!' The third child is stupid and can't speak. Where is it that I can't bear those few eggs, I think, we don't lack this here, if you want to send it, send it better! Don't want the kind that has a round head and a pointed end, don't want the skin that is too thick, and don't want the color that is not very good; So I picked six of them. Six signs are good, six six great shuns, six animals are prosperous! Isn't that reasonable?! β
Not to mention. Although this fat woman is bitter and mean, her mouth is very capable of living in vain, she said so. It seems like that's what it means.
Daddy Liuda didn't miss her eggs, so he smiled and said, "It's good if people come, and send things!" The third child, wait for the dumplings to be boiled, I will let people cook a few dishes, and you will drink two cups with me! β
Don't wait for the man to speak. The fat woman hurriedly said: 'That relationship is good! We arrived early today, and we haven't been able to make a fire to cook yet. It just so happens that you two are sitting together and chatting! β
β¦β¦
Here, Liu Wenyang saw that his father and third uncle had a deep brotherly relationship. I arranged for my subordinates to take care of everything, prepared breakfast, and started the meal early.
The fat lady over there pretended to reach out to help, and followed the cook to the kitchen, and when she went to the place, her heart was sour, you see, this kitchen is more spacious than my house, this iron pot is rounder and bigger than my water tank, and the ground is more flat than the bed board I sleep on......
The fat lady went into the kitchen to touch this and look at that, but felt that the pots and pans in it were a hundred times better than her own.
Her eyes lit up, and thousands of thoughts turned in her heart, and she said straight that the old man Liu's ancestral tomb was smoking, and she would enjoy such wealth; But immediately the fat woman thought that her man was a brother to Old Man Liu, even if the ancestral tomb was smoking, her man should be a little light, but now...... All the good things are taken up by this head of the house, and I don't have a fart on my side.
The loss and unwillingness full of stomach made the fat woman's heart feel as uncomfortable as a pinprick, she forced a smile and asked the cook Mother Sun: "How much reward can you get for working here for a month?" β
The cook is also an honest person, usually very comfortable with pots and pans, and even more realistic to people, and said with a smile: "Master Liu is a kind person, and promised me two taels of silver a month!" β
'What? Two taels of silver?! The fat woman's mouth opened wide.
"Yes, two taels a month, and some red envelopes during the New Year's holidays, like this morning I got a big red envelope with the usual money, and Xiaocui and Xiaohong also got five hundred yuan!" The old man is really a good person, and the young master is also good-hearted, and it cost no less than five hundred taels to open that porridge field! The cook lady was very generous and gave the money donated by Wu Fang and Zhang to Young Master Liu.
When I heard this, the fat woman's ears were different, and she said secretly, 'My mother! This old man Liu is really rich and expensive! β
Five hundred taels, even if you and the man work hard, you won't be able to save so much money in this life!
When the cook saw the fat woman's eyes straightened and a strange sound of 'uh-uh' came out of her throat, she thought something had happened to her, and hurriedly said, 'Auntie, what's wrong with you?' Don't scare me! Oh, no, I'm going to call the master! β
The fat woman's soul returned to its place, grabbed her with one hand, and said, 'Don't, don't go!' I just had a stomachache just now, and I was holding back my strength and letting out a stuffy fart! Okay now, hehe, you don't have to worry about me! β
When the cook saw her like this, she breathed a sigh of relief, although she didn't know how close this fat woman and the old man were, but she was a subordinate, and she still had to do her duty, so as not to offend people.
The cook has a good heart, but how did she know that the fat woman had already made wishful thinking, and when she got the news, she no longer pretended to help cook, and went out to find her own man.
β¦β¦
At the dinner table in the middle hall, the third uncle Liu Nengzheng and his father Liu Da served seven or eight side dishes together, drinking a little wine.
Although this side dish is small, it is very delicate, unlike the previous plate of 'dried tofu'. A plate of 'peanuts', vegetarian and no meat dishes. Now it's a combination of meat and vegetables, with the 'stir-fried chicken nuggets', 'roasted mushrooms', and 'vinegared fish'. and 'leek eggs', etc.
That little wine is no longer a pot of inferior rice wine on the street, but a first-class 'daughter red' in the town, holding a wine glass, even if you don't drink it, you can smell the intoxicating aroma of wine.
The third uncle Liu Neng was obviously happy, especially sitting with his brother Liu Da, watching the elder brother's family become so generous. The heart is more comfortable, so the wine is more comfortable.
Just as Liu Neng drank so red that his face was red, he used chopsticks to clip it a few times, and wanted to eat the greasy and fragrant chicken wings on the plate, but he saw his own woman standing by the door outside and probing his brain. A big ugly face squeezed at himself.
The third uncle Liu Neng was unhappy in his heart, and said in his heart, this mother-in-law is really, she finally ate a hot dish, but you are fooling around outside.
Ignoring her, Liu Neng still caught the chicken wings, gnawed until his mouth was greasy, and he burped until he was full. glanced back, but saw that the mother-in-law had not left yet, and was still there to give herself a look.
Daddy Lyuda saw his brother nibbling on chicken wings. While glancing towards the door, he also glanced at the door curiously, but saw that the fat woman was squeezing her eyes hard, so he said to Liu Neng: "Brother, it seems that my brother and sister have something to do with you, you go over." Let's drink this wine later. β
'This loser will look for me, find trouble!' Big brother, you, you. You wait first, I'll see. Liu Neng saw that the old brother spoke. Then he moved his ass and got up, wiped the grease on his mouth with his cuffs, and lifted the open belt of his trousers with his hand, and then reluctantly walked towards the door.
Seeing the man coming, the fat woman pulled him aside, looking sneaky.
Third Uncle Liu Neng said impatiently: 'You, what are you doing?' Don't you let me have a drink?! β
The fat woman twisted his arm hard and said, 'You dead ghost, is it so important to drink?' How many glances did I give you to come out?! Why, those horse urine soup haven't filled you yet?! β
Liu Neng's arm hurt when she was twisted by her mother-in-law, and she bared her teeth and grinned: "What nonsense are you talking about, what kind of horse urine soup?" That's a daughter red that money can't necessarily buy! β
'Bullshit! What kind of daughter is red and the man is red, I don't worry about this! The fat woman despises men's incompetence, and she doesn't care about anything else just by knowing how to fill horse urine.
"I'll tell you...... The fat woman lowered her voice and said, "I've inquired clearly, your brother's family is really rich now, and you can make dozens of taels a day just by looking at fortune telling!" Also, do you know how much the cook they hired for a month is? The fat woman pretended to raise her fingers mysteriously, "Two taels of silver!" A whole two! It's almost better than our half-year harvest! β
Liu Neng also took a breath, he only knew that his brother's family had made a fortune, but he didn't expect it to be so generous.
'You, you, what's the use of you envying this?' It's not our money! Liu Neng swallowed and foamed.
'How could it be useless?' You think, I'm also a woman, and I can also cook, isn't it just to boil a pot and add water to stir-fry a dish, what's so difficult?! So, why don't you just talk to your brother and get rid of the cook, and let me do all the work! β
The fat woman finally showed her fox tail, wanting to snatch the cook's job, build a base in the Liu family, and slowly take advantage of it in the future.
Although Liu Neng is straightforward, he also has a little heart, and his heart said, yes, his mother-in-law will also make a fire to make rice, who earns this money is not earned, it is better to let her do it, the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, and their own life can be a little better.
When the fat woman saw that the man was in a daze, she continued to instigate: "Also, you told your brother that our family lives in a small place, and it is uncomfortable to live in a house that is used as a kitchen and a thatched house...... This Liufu family has a big business and many houses, so I asked him if we could move over and take care of each other! β
'What do you say?' Moved over? Liu Neng didn't expect her mother-in-law's ambition to be so big, and she wanted to move in. How is this possible?! Even if Daddy Liuda agreed, his nephew would definitely not agree.
'You mother-in-law, why did you forget how you used to treat people?' I don't even want to give a bowl of rice, and if you eat half a tael of soybeans, you will be noisy and noisy! Now that I see that people are rich, I want to come over and take advantage, how can there be such a good thing in this world?! If you still want to grind sesame oil after pulling the pit and you'll want to think about it! β
Ignoring the man's sarcasm, the fat woman pouted and said, "What, don't you say it?" If you don't say it, I say! I don't believe that he is so ruthless and unrighteous that he doesn't even help his own brothers! β
Seeing that the mother-in-law was rushing forward with her neck in hand, Liu Neng grabbed her and said, "Stop, stop!" As soon as you open your mouth, you don't just mess things up! I'm going to talk about ----'
I didn't expect a man who couldn't beat a fart with three sticks to say this, and the fat woman was happy, so she said: 'Then you can say better, I will go home and treat you well!' After saying that, he used those sow eyes to fly a wink to the man.
Liu Neng trembled all over, and he was all a ghost. (To be continued)
