Meng Zhen, Meng Qi and Su Shen are all keeping filial piety, and they can't eat roast chicken and braised pork, so Aunt Guo's jar of pickled cucumbers has become the only "dish" they can eat.

Steamed buns, baked cakes, vegetarian buns are sauced with cucumbers, and the three little ones are eating with relish, and even Hao Mengyun and Yan Zhenwu, who have meat to eat, have not less chopsticks on the plate with sauce cucumbers - this sauce cucumber is a must-have in summer.

After eating, Meng Zhen and the others sent the bedding they brought to the bedroom.

Meng Zhen and Meng Qi's were placed together in the main landlord's house of the Meng family, Su Shen's was placed in his own house next door to the Meng family, and then there were Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun's, Yan Zhenwu's moved to Su Shen's side, and Hao Mengyun's was put by Meng Zhen in the west house of his family's main house.

Hao Mengyun bought four of the kang cabinets, two for Meng Zhen - she is the "head of the two families", with the most things, and the remaining two, one for Meng Qi and one for Su Shen.

She only bought one of the kang table, because Su Shen couldn't cook, and she would definitely have to fire with Meng Zhen and Meng Qi in the future.

The five of them were divided into four groups and lay down on the bamboo mats and took a nap for about half an hour.

When the weather was no longer so hot, Meng Hao and Su Shen locked the courtyard door, took the ox cart in the village that Guo Yang helped them rent, and went to the town to buy cupboards, tofu and other things that were inconvenient to buy in the county seat.

Guo Yang is still as silent as ever, but he is very thoughtful and diligent in doing things, he not only helps Su Shen and Meng Zhen drive the ox cart, but also helps them move things.

Meng Hao's newly bought cupboard was the one he helped Meng Hao carry to the car, but it was Su Shen, a white-faced scholar, who had a very limited contribution.

After buying the cupboard, Meng Zhen went to buy some ingredients, some fabrics, and a few bags of snacks.

She bought things quickly, and it took less than an hour for the three of them to go back and forth to the town, of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that Yulin Village is next to Mujiaji Town.

Back in the village, Meng Hao asked Hao Mengyun to send Aunt Guo's house next door a two-pound pork belly and three feet of burlap bought in the town, and she herself went to Guo Lizheng's house with Su Shen.

The two gave Guo Lizheng a small jar of wine, a piece of pork belly, a bag of trough cakes, and a piece of muslin, which is an extremely rare and valuable gift in a place like Yulin Village.

Although Guo Lizheng had long known that the three new little dolls were rich, he didn't expect that Meng Zhen and Su Shen would actually give him such a generous gift.

You must know that Meng Zhen and they have the small officials and officials in the county government as backers, they just don't pull out a dime, and Guo Lizheng doesn't dare to embarrass them.

But it is precisely because of this that Meng Hao and Su Shen's behavior will show that they are extremely thoughtful and sensible, and it seems that they value and respect him for his integrity.

"Grandpa Lizheng, this is a little bit of caution on our part, please don't dislike it." Meng Hao's smile has always been very contagious, she took something from Su Shen's hand, and then handed it to Guo Lizheng's mother-in-law, Yang.

Yang was very happy, she refused a few times, and then took the things down and put them down.

Guo Lizheng's daughter-in-law Wu was ordered by her mother-in-law to make a bowl of brown sugar water for Meng Zhen and Su Shen.

In the countryside, there are very few times when tea is used to entertain guests, and being able to serve a bowl of sugar water is already to pay attention to the performance of guests.

Obviously, the generous gift sent by Meng Zhen and Su Shen greatly pleased Mrs. Lizheng.

After a few words of greeting with Guo Lizheng, Meng Zhen said the purpose of coming here this time with Su Shen, "... As you know, my parents and I, Ah Qi and Ah Shen, both died, and we were going to keep filial piety behind closed doors for our parents for the next two years, so although we moved to the village, it was not convenient for us to interact with many people in the village. In order to prevent any unnecessary misunderstandings, we also asked Grandpa Lizheng to help us say hello to the people in the village. ”

When Guo Lizheng heard this, he immediately realized that these children were planning to live by themselves behind closed doors, greet him, and also hope that he would restrain the people in the village and not run to the two of them to probe their brains because of curiosity.

This is a trivial matter, Guo Lizheng agreed without saying a word.

got what she wanted, and Meng Zhen soon returned to her home with Su Shen.

When she returned to her yard at the head of the village, the sun had just set halfway behind the western mountain.

Little Meng Qi was led by Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun, picking half-green and non-red sour apricots on the apricot tree in the yard to eat, and when he saw his sister, the little guy cheered and ran towards Meng Zhen with little short legs.

"Sister! Sister! ”

Meng Hao reached out and hugged his younger brother to prevent him from tripping to the ground in an agitation, "Is Ah Qi obedient?" Is it naughty? ”

Xiao Meng Qi's chubby little body stood like a blessed little poplar, "Ah Qi is very well-behaved and not naughty." ”

The milky children's voice seemed to naturally carry a bit of sweetness in the ears, and Meng Hao's mood suddenly became a little better.

She touched her brother's little head, "Then Sister will give you steamed egg custard and baked flatbread to eat tonight." ”

Meng Qi cheered, "I also want to eat stewed tofu, Sister loves to eat it." ”

The corners of Meng Zhen's lips curled slightly, "Then add another cabbage vermicelli to stew tofu." ”

While speaking, Meng Hao went to the stove room to fetch water and wash her hands.

Su Shen stood in the courtyard and hesitated for a moment, then quietly entered the stove room, "I'll help you." ”

Meng Zhen was surprised, "You? ”

Su Shen's face was slightly red, a little embarrassed and a little annoyed, "I'm so good-handed, I can't just beg for nothing all the time, right?" If I can learn to cook with you, why can't I learn to cook with you? ”

After a pause, Su Shen said again: "Not only cooking, but you can also teach me hunting, fishing, and identifying wild vegetables and fruits in the future, I want to learn all of these." ”

Meng Hao stroked her palms and smiled, "No problem, it's on me." ”

——It is rare to meet such a handsome young man who is not macho at all, and Meng Hao feels that it is necessary to lead him further and further on the right path.

The villain in his heart grinned and somersaulted, but Meng Zhen had a "relieved" old mother's face on her face.

She took a basin to Su Shen, and then began to teach him how to choose and wash vegetables seriously.

Su Shen is very smart, and his fingers are also quite dexterous, as soon as Meng Zhen said the steps and key points, Su Shen immediately groped for himself to choose the dish.

Yan Zhenwu, who originally planned to give Meng Zhen a shot, saw this and quietly left the door of the stove room.

With the great assistance of Su Shen, a good student, Meng Zhen, the head chef, quickly made a sumptuous dinner for the five of them.

The fragrant white rice and mung bean porridge, a stack of golden flatbread fried on both sides with green onion flowers and fried, a large bowl of egg custard steamed and tender and tender, which makes people want to eat at a glance, the white and tender old tofu stewed with cabbage and vermicelli, as well as the stewed pork with beans and braised carp specially prepared for Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun, as well as a cucumber, a garlic eggplant, a cold fungus, and a cold bitter endive.
