"Is life difficult in my uncle's family?" Qi Jiuli asked, "I saw that the jackets worn by the fifth and sixth cousins were not patched. ”

"That's it." Qi Shiyi said, "But compared to our family and the uncle's family, the uncle's family is still relatively better, after all, they don't have a scholar in their family, so they don't need to be restrained." ”

"But it's not much better, after all, the majority of the family's income is still in the field, and there are one or two pigs raised all year round, although the wages in the county town are more than those in the town and the landlord's family, but it is not very much."

"What's more, the work is not always your turn, and it is rare to have work." Qi Shiyi explained.

"The fifth cousin and the sixth cousin are twins, sixteen this year, and when it is time to marry a daughter-in-law, it is always more difficult to prepare two dowries."

"Fifth and sixth cousins are twins?" Qi Jiuli asked rhetorically, although they looked a little similar, they could be said to be twins, she really didn't expect it.

"Well, a baby came out." Qi Shiyi said, "Twins are also different, the fifth cousin and the sixth cousin are yes." ”

Qi Jiuli nodded, it seemed that they were fraternal twins.

"But you know at a young age that you are going to marry a daughter-in-law and give a dowry." Qi Jiuli said with a teasing face.

Qi Shiyi glanced at Qi Jiuli with disdain, "I'm smart, except for my brother, I'm the second smartest in the family." ”

"But the eldest sister is a little smarter than before now, barely ranked third." After Qi Shiyi finished speaking, he was like a victorious rooster, and he almost had a tail to.

"Qi Shiyi, what do you mean by this, I am the stupidest together." Qi Shixiang was washing her hair rope in the yard, and when she heard this, she turned around and glared at Qi Shiyi, and then the two chased and fought, and the yard was filled with laughter.

"We ate these four eggs in the evening and fried them with wild vegetables, and we haven't seen meat for a long time." Qi Jiuli looked at the four eggs in the basket and proposed, in modern times, eggs are not meaty, many people say that they are vegetarian dishes, but I didn't expect that now the whole family is counting on eggs to replenish their bodies.

"Well, listen to my sister." Qi Shixiang nodded and said, anyway, this egg is also from my uncle's family, and I really don't feel very distressed after eating it.

Qi Jiuli was in charge of the kitchen in the evening, she was really confident in her cooking skills, but she couldn't stand the shortage of spices.

After a lot of hard work, I dug up the lumpy lard with a spoon, fragrant the pot, beat the eggs directly, and turned it neatly after one side of the egg whites were cooked, and put it out for later use when the egg whites were cooked on both sides, and fried four in a row.

"Eldest sister, isn't it scrambled eggs with wild vegetables?" Qi Shiyi saw the confusion and asked, "Where are the wild vegetables?" ”

"It's coming soon." Qi Jiuli said with a smile,

The pot where the eggs are fried does not need to be washed, just put the chopped wild vegetables and stir-fry them over high heat, stir-fry them all the time, and after the wild vegetables are flattened, put an appropriate amount of salt and fry them well, so that Qi Shiyi removed the burning wood, changed it to low heat, put the four fried eggs in it, and buried them directly under the wild vegetables.

Qi Shixiang kneaded the cornmeal, Qi Jiuli divided it into small agents, kneaded it into a round ball and pressed it directly on the edge of the pot, pasted ten cornmeal tortillas the size of adult palms in a row, scooped some water, added it to the pot, and covered it and simmered.

When the water is almost dry, the tortillas are cooked.

"Wow, eldest sister, it tastes delicious and smells good." Qi Shiyi swallowed his saliva, staring directly at the wild vegetables in the pot that were glowing with oil and heat, and the slightly bulging cornmeal tortillas.

"Knock knock knock - nine miles, ten incense, eleven."

"Brother is back." Qi Shiyi hurriedly ran to open the door, "Brother, I ate well at night, there are cornmeal tortillas, fried eggs, and wild vegetables are also very fragrant......

When Qi Qizhu and Qi Shiyi washed their hands and entered the hall, there was already a large pot of wild vegetables on the table of the Eight Immortals, as well as half a basket of cornmeal tortillas.

"Well, the tortillas are extra soft today." Qi Qizhu took a bite and praised.

"The eldest sister's cooking skills have grown." Qi Shiyi echoed and admired, stretched out his chopsticks and sandwiched a large number of wild vegetables, feeling that he could eat the taste of eggs.

Qi Jiuli pulled out the fried eggs buried under the wild vegetables, one for each person, contaminated with the soup of the wild vegetables, the omelette was exceptionally tender, and the ten corn flour tortillas were also swept away, Qi Qizhu ate three, and the other seven Qi Jiuli and the three of them ate together.

After eating, Qi Qizhu took out a coarse cloth from the bookbag and opened it, and there were two pastries and two pieces of sugar inside.

This kind of sugar Qi Jiuli is the first time I have seen it, and it feels a little similar to the brown sugar cubes in my previous life, square, but it exudes the smell of maltose.

"Brother, where did you come from?" Qi Shixiang asked, she knew that her brother was reluctant to spend money, she used to copy books to earn money, so she would buy candy and come back for them to eat, and the silver money brother in the family never moved, even if his mother gave him five dollars before, he never spent a penny.

Qi Qizhu looked at Qi Jiuli, a little wanted to say something, he wanted to bring delicious food to eat with his family, but these things were ......

Qi Jiuli understood in seconds and affirmed, "Yu Haotian and Feng Yunxia's wedding cakes and sweets." ”

As soon as they heard that it was their wedding cakes and sweets, Qi Shixiang and Qi Shiyi looked away no matter how much they wanted to eat, "We don't want their things." ”

Qi Jiuli smiled, "Stupid, why don't you." ”

"Jiuli is really not sad?" Qi Qizhu saw that Qi Jiuli was not the slightest bit sad, so he was relieved, but he still asked cautiously.

"Brother, you're not sad, are you." Qi Jiuli actually admires Qi Qizhu, Yu Haotian is married to Qi Jiuli, but now Qi Jiuli has changed his core, he doesn't know Yu Haotian at all, and he doesn't have any feelings.

But Qi Qizhu is not, he is the one who has been married to Feng Yunxia, and he was really withdrawn and abandoned, but Qi Qizhu did not show a little sadness, and in turn he has been comforting himself and thinking about himself.

"Not long after I got married to Feng Yunxia, I have only seen her twice, and I don't remember what she looks like." Qi Qizhu said seriously.

Qi Jiuli was a little clear when he heard this, Qi Qizhu didn't like that Feng Yunxia, "Brother, since you don't like that Feng Yunxia, why did you marry her in the first place?" ”

Qi Qizhu didn't answer, "It's all in the past, there's nothing to say." ”

Qi Qizhu really didn't mind withdrawing from his family, the main reason for marrying Feng Yunxia was that his father and mother liked him, and the first time he saw Feng Yunxia, he thought she was a gentle girl, so he didn't think about it so much.

Qi Jiuli actually regretted it after asking, this is ancient times, it is the words of the matchmaker of her parents, not free love, she asked.

"I'm not sad, I don't like Yu Haotian." Qi Jiuli said, "Before, it should have been because he was the object of marriage, and he regarded him as a person who would live in the future, but in fact, he hadn't met him a few times, so he couldn't talk about whether he liked it or not." ”

"I don't remember it anymore, I can't even remember what he looked like." Qi Jiuli didn't care.
