66. The idea of surging
Guo honestly smiled and said: "You are willing to work hard to help my old Guo family build a workshop, how can you not let you eat and drink well!" ”
Seeing that Guo Laoshi didn't seem to be pretending to be modern, Mr. Leader had a little more affection for the Guo family, and opened his voice and said: "We people were invited by Uncle Guo with money, and building a workshop is a matter of internal affairs, and Uncle Guo is actually too polite." ”
Guo Laoshi waved his hand, pointed to the braised pork on the dinner table and said: "It takes hard work to build a house, it's impossible to have a little oil and water, you just let go of your belly and eat, there is another one at home." ”
Guo Lin on the side took advantage of the situation to take over the conversation and said jokingly: "The pigs at the mercy of the family have been killed, if the gentlemen don't eat it, the meat will stink in a few days." ”
Everyone didn't know what they heard, so after questioning, they realized that in order to summon them, the Guo family really killed the pigs that they had raised for more than half a year!
At the end of the day, the ten people's sentiments were complicated, and they didn't know whether to say that the Guo family was stupid or that the Guo family was kind.
Although they looked at Li Zhuang's decency before, the wages decided were far lower than those of others, at this moment, they didn't look at Li Zhuang's decency, but looked at the Guo family's heart, so they thought about advocating that the workshop be built well, otherwise they would be sorry for the pig that was eaten into the stomach.
Not to mention the inner thoughts of Mr. Ziren, under the enthusiastic call of Guo Laoshi's father and son, the first meal was particularly comfortable, and when they continued to do unfinished business in the next day, Mr. Ziren's attitude towards Guo Laoshi's father and son was much closer.
The next day, as soon as the rooster crowed three times, Guo Mianmian got up. She put on her jacket, put on her shoes, covered Kunkun with a quilt, and then arrived at the kitchen, where she saw that her mother and two sisters-in-law had already started to make breakfast.
"Mianmian, quickly take out the cauliflower and drain it, and fry it with small peppers with porridge later." The three mother-in-law and daughter-in-law kneaded the dough, one washed the vegetables, and one chopped the stuffing, and it was impossible to get started.
"Well, I'll go." Guo Mianmian answered, then ran to the pickle jar in the corner, found the one containing the white cauliflower, and casually opened the sealed lid and sniffed it.
There is no rancid taste, only a strong fresh aroma after pickling, Guo Mianmian washed his hands and scooped a bowl full of cauliflower with a spoon.
Cauliflower is a kind of soft vegetable that will bloom small white flowers, and its taste is the most special, and it is not delicious at all when it is fresh. Therefore, before eating, it is necessary to chop and salt it for a while, and then press and rub it vigorously with your hands until the green color is almost black, and then put it in the jar and seal it.
During this period, it is impossible to open it to let the air get in, otherwise there will be a rancid smell, even if it is not rancid, it will be a big buckle. Maybe after seven or eight days, you can open the lid and stir-fry with chili pepper or garlic sprouts, etc., and it will become an excellent meal, and it is very good with porridge and rice.
The Guo family's vegetable garden planted a small piece of white cauliflower as usual, and only after cutting four or five stubbles did seven or eight jars be pickled. If the seal is sealed, the taste will not change, and even if it is put in the hot weather of the next year, it can generally be eaten.
After scooping up the cauliflower, Guo Mianmian began to wash the rice and boil the porridge.
Mr. Summoning and the workers had an easy breakfast, and the vegetable buns and porridge were the best. It is more laborious to make steamed buns, and it is necessary to chop the stuffing and wrap the noodles.
It will be much easier to make steamed buns, steamed buns are not hungry without oil and salt, and if you want to be hungry, you can only fry a few dishes, which is not easier than making steamed buns, so you can directly make steamed buns. If the workers eat a few steamed buns and drink a bowl of thick porridge, they will not go hungry before they have eaten.
The eastern sky was covered with a touch of fish white, the Guo family's steamed buns were fragrant, and the porridge in the pot had been boiled. The craftsmen and gentlemen who had rested for the night arrived at Guo's house one after another, and several villagers who helped from their homes also came over for breakfast.
Generally, the helpers hired in the village are not paid, and in the future, when they build their own houses or other major events, the Guo family will also give them assistance without charge, which is a fair labor exchange. The assisted family prepares three meals a day so that they don't go hungry to work.
The meal was about to start, and the Mu family didn't have the Zheng family kid who promised to come to help yesterday, so he couldn't help but run out of the eldest son who ran out of the candle: "Old man, it's all at this point, are you sure that the Zheng family kid will come to help?" ”
When Guo Shu heard this, he remembered that another person didn't come, he scratched his head and said: "Brother Zheng doesn't seem to be a talker, he will definitely come, but I don't know when he will come, and I forgot to tell him yesterday." ”
After hearing this, Mu couldn't help but slap his eldest son, and said: "You don't say a word about such an important matter, if people don't know that it's late, and we have eaten up this meal again, do you say it's embarrassing?" ”
Guo Shu covered his head and whispered: "Mother, you can eat everything at this time, is it inconvenient for you to leave a little food alone?" ”
Mu Shi looked at the people who were still waiting in the hall and nodded. It can only be like this, it is impossible to let everyone do this, who knows if the Zheng family kid suddenly has something to do.
The conversation between the mother and son reached Guo Mianmian's ears, and Guo Mianmian involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief. What she said was suave, but in fact, she was whispered in her ears by her family every day, where did she really not have a little pressure?
Now that the person she doesn't want to see doesn't come, she feels much more relaxed, and she wishes that the other party can't come if she has something, otherwise the other party will know the psychology of her family, and she will be the one who is embarrassed.
, The facts proved that Guo Mianmian's fate was really not very good, so when the buns and porridge were swept away and only a few rice grains stuck to the bottom of the pot remained, the person she didn't want to see came.
At this time, the gentleman and the helpers who had finished eating had already gone to the construction site, Guo Laoshi Mu and others also took sacrifices to the god of the earth, and the children all ran to see the warmth, and only Guo Mianmian who was blocking the dishes and chopsticks and Guo Shu who had not finished eating were left at home.
"Brother Zheng, you're here, hurry up, come over for breakfast!" Guo Shu was the first to see Zheng Rin, his eyes lit up and he swallowed the last bite of the bun, hurriedly greeted him, and then shouted at Guo Mianmian: "Ye'er, didn't you deliberately leave the buns and porridge, hurry up and serve them to Brother Zheng." ”
Guo Shu didn't know how much ambiguity he had in the end about what he said to his sister.
Zheng Rin, who had already had breakfast at home and was about to excuse himself, subconsciously forgot the fact that he had eaten breakfast, and silently looked at the woman who was secretly glaring at his brother.
Guo Mianmian was simply crying stupidly by her own boss, was she inconvenient to listen to her mother's advice and left a few buns and a big bowl of porridge, how did it get into the boss's mouth, so she deliberately kept it for the surname Zheng? If you don't know, I'm afraid that I think she has something to do with the surname Zheng!
Thinking so in his heart, in front of others, Guo Mianmian can't say anything to correct it, otherwise he will be mistaken for a weak heart and a body.
Secretly glaring at the unaware boss, Guo Mianmian almost said sourly: "Yes, boss, I'll go now!" With that, she turned and went to the kitchen.
Looking at mm's back blankly, Guo Shu patted his head in annoyance, and said in hindsight: "It's over, I said the wrong thing again to make Ye'er unhappy, what's the matter?" ”
Zheng Rin's eyebrows moved slightly, and he asked casually: "Did Boss Guo say the wrong body?" ”
Guo Shu was about to answer, but the more he answered when he thought of this, the more chaotic he became, and the more angry his sister would become, so he turned his tongue around and said haha: "Anyway, I said the wrong thing, and I have to think about it before I say it in the future." ”
Not hearing the mystery he wanted to hear, Zheng Rin was a little disappointed, and then stood in Guo Shu's perspective to think about why the words he said made the woman angry.
After thinking about it, combined with the attitude that women don't dare to look at, an impossible motive rushed through Zheng Rin's brain: shame!
Could it be ...... Does she have intentions for herself? If it weren't for her brother's occasional revelation of her distress, how could she secretly glare at her brother without even looking at herself? It's humiliation, isn't it?
In the past, at the border pass, a woman took a fancy to his subordinate soldiers, and every time she saw it, was it inconvenient to look like this?
Thinking of this possibility, the corners of Zheng Rin's mouth occasionally curled, and when he realized that he was imagining his body, his smile suddenly froze on his face, feeling that he was too dirty, and sure enough, he measured his brother's suffering!
Raising his eyes and seeing Guo Mianmian coming out of the kitchen, Zheng Rin immediately broke off his rumbling train of thought, and sat at the dining table with a heavy expression at Guo Shu's invitation, and his deep eyes involuntarily stopped on the woman in front of him.
Guo Mianmian brought the buns, porridge and a small plate of cauliflower to Zheng Rin's eyes, and nodded slightly at him as a greeting, but he didn't want to be firmly intimidated by the other party's profound eyes, so he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Realizing that he was really stunned, Guo Mianmian, who had already passed the flowering period, deeply despised herself, and turned around and left with slightly hot cheeks.
Zheng Rin fell into silence with chopsticks in his hands, and suddenly remembered a passage he had heard from his subordinates' soldiers.
At that time, before the war started, the soldiers of his subordinates gathered together to chat, and one of the soldiers said that if you have any intentions for you, you just have to stare at her face without squinting.
If she has no intention of you, she will pretend that she has no hope of seeing you, and if she has intentions for you, she will run away with a red face and shyness.
Therefore, Shicai, she was embarrassed and ran away, this is shameful, right? She...... Do you really have intentions for yourself?
Thinking of this possibility, the corners of his mouth that had just been pressed down tended to rise again, looking at the fist-sized buns and a bowl full of porridge, Zheng Rin, who was not hungry, suddenly had a great appetite and picked up his chopsticks to eat.
Anyway, this is her affection for a piece, and it can't be wasted!
Seeing that he was eating, Guo Shu only thought that Zheng Rin was hungry, and persuaded him with good intentions: "Brother Zheng, you eat slowly, if it is not enough, I will make other delicious food, and I will definitely let you eat enough." ”
After listening to this, Zheng Rin confirmed the guess in his heart more and more, the curvature of the corners of his mouth became deeper and deeper, and finally he wiped out the buns and porridge in one go.
Guo Mianmian, who was washing in the kitchen, didn't know that the other party's brain had made up something great, and if he knew that he was stunned, he would stubbornly pit himself, and he was afraid that he would hit the wall depressed.
After Zheng Rin finished eating, he went to the construction site with Guo Shu.
At this time, the sacrifice to the earth god had been completed, and Mu Shi was the happiest when he saw Zheng Rin, and asked him with great concern if he had breakfast.
Knowing that he had already eaten it, Mu Shi asked again: "What kind of dishes do you like to eat?" There are many flavors that my family can make, and I can make them. ”
