Ouyang Si's subconscious actions were naturally the first to scare Zeng Hua, followed by Zeng Rong, and then his three elders.

Originally, this meal was considered by the three elders, and Zeng Rong planned to eat it himself, not letting Ah Chun and a few others prepare vegetables on the side, for fear of scaring them.

But it was the first time for a countryman to go to the city to eat at a living person's house, and although there was a table full of chickens, ducks and fish, the three elders were embarrassed to use chopsticks.

In this way, Zeng Rongcai called Ah Chun and a few more to help a few elders distribute the vegetables, and the vegetables were put into their bowls, and they had to eat them.

Reasoning, Ouyang Si's chicken wings should be let and the two elders should be allowed, but he put the chicken wings into Zeng Hua's bowl, not to mention that Zeng Hua had Ziluo next to him to help Bu Cai, his behavior alone was enough to attract the attention of the three elders.

It's not that I'm dissatisfied, it's more about a little bit of loss and a little bit of relief, the loss is because my children have forgotten them for a long time outside, thinking not about them but about others; I am relieved because I can see that my children are very familiar with this family, and they are indeed like family.

"It's our fault, a few of them just came, and they don't know the rules of our hometown, and the second brother is really right, and he doesn't take the initiative." Zeng Rong hurriedly got up, took the chopsticks from Ah Chun's hand, first picked out the two chicken legs for the two old men, and then picked out the other chicken wings for Ou Mu.

The three elders were still about to excuse themselves, but Ouyang Si stopped them, "Grandparents, Auntie, you can eat, Ah Rong, their lives are better, these are commonplace, and they are not short of this bite." ”

"What the second brother said is not right, what is 'Ah Rong and their lives are better', it should be that all of us are having a better time, we have survived, second brother, you are also going to become an official family, and we are all better." Chen said with a smile.

"Anyway, thank you a lot." Ou Mu said with red eyes.

On this trip back to his hometown, his son told her that her son could go to high school and what Tanhualang was, thanks to what Lord Xu and the second prince introduced to him by Ah Rong.

Also, the son returned to his hometown this time, it is reported that he also borrowed the light of Lord Xu and the second prince, and the local officials all came to visit with generous gifts, although the son did not accept those generous gifts, but this glory was really passed on, and even the family members who had not moved for many years came to the door one by one, and took the initiative to say that they wanted the clan to pay for them to repair the ancestral house.

In fact, as early as when Ouyang was thinking about taking Xiucai, the clansmen had mentioned this matter, and took the initiative to return the land that had occupied them before. After the move, they proposed to re-allocate a piece of land to build a new house for them, saying that the old house was too cramped and was rejected by their mother and son.

This time when they returned to their hometowns, the clansmen came to the door with gongs and drums, first saying that they would enclose land to build a new house, and then said that they would repair the ancestral hall and family tree, and also said that they would ask the clan to pool money to invite the villagers to eat a day's flowing water banquet, so that it would be lively and lively.

In short, their mother and son survived.

Not only that, but the son said that all his expenses on this trip back to his hometown were made up by the family. Also, the house in the capital is also worth four or five thousand taels of silver, and if they rely on themselves, they won't be able to live in the Year of the Monkey.

After all, my son said that being an official is very different from being an official, most of the officials under the emperor's eyes are relatively honest, if it weren't for the previous solid family background, it would be difficult to buy the next property by being an official.

Now that it's okay, with the help of this family, her son's future will not be bad, and if she can marry a good daughter-in-law again, her life will really be complete.

"The aunt came again, and they all said that they were a family, and they mentioned the word of thanks. Come, drink the soup, this is the spring bamboo shoots and bacon from our hometown, see if the taste is okay? Zeng Rong picked up the other party's bowl and scooped a bowl of soup for her.

Over there, Zeng Hua also recovered from the initial fright, picked up a piece of fish belly meat for one of the two elders, and took the initiative to explain: "Grandpa, grandma, this fish grows in the northern river, you taste it, is it a little different from my hometown?" ”

"Okay, okay, girl, you can eat by yourself, we have enough in the bowl." After my grandmother finished speaking, she picked up the fish and tasted it, tasted it carefully for a while, and praised: "This fish is really tender, and this craft is really good." ”

Ouyang Si laughed when he heard this, "Grandma, you are bold to tell the truth, is it not as sweet as the fish and meat in your hometown?" ”

The main reason is that they have discussed this issue many times, and the conclusion is that the water in the south is sweet, so the fish raised also has a hint of sweetness, and not only that, but the vegetables and meat here also taste a little bit.

"Stinky boy, you can." The old man glared at his grandson.

"Nothing else, I just think this green vegetable is really not as delicious as my hometown." Chan said.

On this topic, the atmosphere at the dining table became lively, the countrymen have never had any rules for eating without words, Zeng Rong didn't intend to restrain them at the beginning, so when she saw that a few elders were relaxed, she also returned the chopsticks in her hand to Ah Chun.

After finishing the meal, Zeng Rong accompanied the three elders to sit in the hall and drink tea, Ouyang Si opened a piece of luggage, which contained things brought by his hometown, and one of the packages was brought by Zeng Rong's father.

Ouyang Si told Zeng Chengchun that Zeng Rong was going to get married, but he didn't say who he was marrying, only that the other party was a good family and his family background was very good, and he also said that Zeng Guixiang was going to take the Xiucai exam this year, and said that Zeng Fuxiang opened a small shop by himself, Ah Hua was studying with the granddaughters of the Xu family, Ah Nian was three years old and was a boy.

Originally, according to Zeng Chengchun's meaning, he wanted to take his wife and children to Beijing to join here, but no one in the village dared to open the way, saying that someone had let them go, and they were not allowed to leave the town for a single step.

Therefore, Zeng Chengchun had to ask Ouyang Si to bring some dry goods here, two packs of dried bamboo shoots and dried fish, plus a congratulatory gift for Zeng Rong, a thin silver hairpin.

"Ah Rong, your father also asked me to give you a message, saying that it was his fault for the previous things and that he didn't treat you well, but he is your father after all, and now please take them in to enjoy the happiness for the sake of him being old and unable to do farm work." Ouyang Si said.

Zeng Rong sneered when he heard this: "Don't worry. I remember. ”

The reason why she took Tian Shuilan's matter back was that Ouyang Si had not come back yet, and she was afraid of causing him trouble; The second is that she doesn't want to make any unpleasant rumors before getting married.

"Okay, look at these again, these are the dry goods that my grandparents and my mother prepared for you." Ouyang Si opened another package, which contained all kinds of dried vegetables, dried beans, dried plum vegetables, dried bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and a large bag of dried fish, five or six pieces of bacon, a ham, and a jar of sauerkraut.

"This sauerkraut is what Ah Hua wants to eat, right?" Chen smiled when he saw these things.

Who knew that it was okay not to say this, but Zeng Hua couldn't control it again.
