Liu Guoqiang watched not far away, listened to An Ning's words, and ran to An Ning's front in three steps and two steps, and asked her: "Sister-in-law, what are you buying so much meat for?" ”

"Go home and make dumplings." An Ning didn't explain much, but simply responded.

This sentence made Liu Guoqiang's heart almost bloom, but he didn't expect An Ning, who was a sister-in-law, to be quite generous. When he was in the bun shop just now, although the buns and wontons were full of meat and eggs, Liu Guoqiang always felt that he had not enjoyed eating, and his stomach was really unable to eat, otherwise he would continue to eat.

It's good now, An Ning bought meat, and when she went home, she could continue to eat dumplings with meat and eggs.

"Girl, you see, tall. Ten dollars, eight catties, three twos, three, three, I will weigh you to almost eight and a half pounds, no. "The meat is called," the boss said, handing over the meat.

An Ning smiled politely: "Thank you!" Master, see if you can help me divide the meat in half! ”

"Okay!" The boss said happily: "What is the division? ”

"Just half." An Ning said.

The boss raised the knife in his hand, and a piece of meat was divided into two halves, and then, at An Ning's signal, two pieces of brown paper were wrapped in two.

Liu Guoqiang watched from the sidelines, feeling a little unsure, and asked An Ning: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?" ”

"Look at my mom." An Ning doesn't hide it, anyway, as long as Liu Guoqiang follows, this matter can't be hidden. Besides, she is the daughter-in-law of the Liu family, but she is also the daughter of the An family, she can't forget her mother's family after marrying her mother-in-law's family, she is not the white-eyed wolf.

When Liu Guoqiang heard An Ning say this, he was unhappy in his heart, and originally pointed out that these more than eight catties of meat can be eaten with a full meal of dumplings when he goes home, but this point, there is not much left, I am afraid that this meat and egg dumplings are not enjoyable! But he didn't dare to say anything, just followed behind An Ning with a reluctant face.

On a fork in the road, An Ning handed one of the pieces of meat to Liu Guoqiang and asked him to take it home, and she and Liu Guodong wanted to go to their parents' house before it was dark.

Liu Guodong took An Ning and went straight to Anmao Village.

When I first arrived at the gate, I happened to meet An Jie coming out of the house. The stomach is only more than four months old, so I can't see it, but the way I walk is a little bulky.

"Sister!" An Ning saw An Jie, who was her blood relative here.

On the day An Jie came back, her mother kept telling her that the last time An Ning came back, she kept mentioning her affairs, and said that she was young at that time and was ignorant. Although An Jie doesn't like to talk much, she is a soft person, and when she heard her mother's words, she burst into tears, and there were sadness, grievances, and dissatisfaction in these tears.

For so many years, An Jie, who is an older sister, has been living in the shadow of tranquility, and the eccentricity of the family makes her feel that she is not like a blood relative in this family, but more like she was picked up.

She has been looking forward to the day when An Ning will be more sensible and can understand her heart as an older sister. But no matter how well she behaved, An Ning never seemed to appreciate it.

She is good to An Ning, whether it is due to the pressure of the family, or whether she is willing, but she is always good to An Ning, but she has never exchanged the slightest return for An Ning, every time she looks at this sister, her eyes are full of contempt and disdain.

An Jie never wanted to understand that the sisters of other families had fights and troubles, and the relationship was very good, but between them, how did they become like this?

After all, she didn't hear An Ning say this to her in person. But now, she saw with her own eyes that the sister who didn't want to see her in the first place, suddenly stood in front of her so kindly, and affectionately called herself "sister".

An Jie couldn't react for a while, her heart was mixed, and she couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was in her heart.

An Ning seemed to be a self-acquaintance, rushed to An Jie, took her arm, and said with a happy face: "Sister, are you leaving?" I've just arrived, so let's go later! I haven't seen each other for a long time. ”

An Jie came by herself, because she didn't marry too far, so she walked over to see her mother's family after work.

An Jie didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and she seemed to be a little uncomfortable with such a kind An Jie.

"Xiao Jie, since Ning Ning is back, you can stay for a while!" Bai Yunxia said to An Ning.

But before An Jie could respond, An Ning grabbed her arm and dragged her back home.

After entering the house, Liu Guodong took out the meat and put it on the table.

When An Jie left, the old lady didn't send it, saying that she was old and rested early. But when he saw that An Ning had returned, he came out of his room again.

Seeing what Liu Guodong put on the table, she smiled and said, "I told you, I'm here, what do you bring?" ”

"I didn't have anything good, so I went to the city today and cut some meat along the way." Liu Guodong explained.

As soon as Bai Yunxia opened it, there was such a big piece of pork belly, and she was really greedy! There is no meat seller in the village, and if anyone wants to eat meat, they will kill the old sow in their own family. But the villagers don't raise many livestock, in their eyes it costs too much food, the pigs eat a lot, and they have to take care of it, and they start to get sick if they don't eat well. At best, some people raise some chickens and eat less, so that they can satisfy their hunger when the family is hungry.

At this time, the meat was not cheap, Bai Yunxia was very distressed when she saw it, and said repeatedly: "My God, you are rich!" How much does it cost to buy such a large piece of meat! ”

"Mom, if you buy it, you will eat it, and you will chop it into stuffing later, and make dumplings with some meat and eggs, and bring it to my sister." An Ning reassured.

Where is Bai Yunxia willing to give up! I went to the kitchen and found a knife to make it two, handed the larger one to An Ning, and said, "You can take this piece back." We have leeks in our own fields, and we just wrap the leek meat. ”

"Oops!" An Ning said with some dissatisfaction: "There are also at home, so don't worry about it." Mom, you're tired today, hurry up and get busy with dumplings! I want to talk to my sister. ”

Bai Yunxia heard An Ning say this, so she didn't say anything, so she took the piece of meat to the kitchen. But after entering the kitchen, when she saw this meat, she was reluctant, such a large piece, weighing how to weigh it would have to be three or four pounds, and eating a meal of dumplings was really a little distressing.

Bai Yunxia simply wrapped the big piece of meat in brown paper, then tied it up with hemp rope, went to the well in the yard, screwed the rope up, and finally tied the meat to the top and tied it to the bottom of the well.
