Chapter Forty-Three: Born with Eight Characters Incompatible
"Ahem!" Shang Yi coughed lightly, and a pair of good-looking peach blossom eyes looked directly at Su Xiaoluo, the distinguished guest is here, do you only add vegetables to Zixu?
Su Xiaoluo has already bent down to load the rice seedlings, she has to throw another basket of rice seedlings before going home, otherwise there are too many Tinker Bells left, when will the two of them finish?
There is a group of *** onlookers, and if you are another little girl, you will definitely be shy, I'm afraid where to put your hands and feet.
Tinker Bell and Little Goo Dong ran to the pool on the other side with baskets on their shoulders and threw seedlings, and Su Xiaoluo worked like no one else, checking where there were big gaps as they worked, and they had to fill them.
"Call the Su family to lead the way, and let's go to the wild soybean field to have a look." Shang Yi saw Su Xiaoluo's input, looked at it for a while and turned to leave.
Su Xiaoluo threw a basket of rice seedlings and told Tinker Bell and Xiao Gudong to go home first. The smell of food was already coming from the kitchen, Su Xiaoluo looked through the window, there were many bags on the board, there were many bags by the stove, and there were more than 20 catties of meat on the cupboard.
Now that the weather is hot, the meat can't be stored for too long, and even if there is a cellar, it won't taste fresh the next day. Su Xiaoluo rolled up his sleeves, washed his hands, and cut the meat into square pieces of about a catty.
Start another stove, light the fire brush pot and put the cleaned meat in, add all kinds of seasonings, because the color of Qifengguo's soy sauce is light, Su Xiaoluo found a quick and clean muslin cloth to wrap some tea leaves and tie it tightly, grabbed some cane sugar cubes and put them in, and covered the pot.
Su Qin's family asked for some small fish from the river from a neighbor's house, and Su Xiaoluo and Sister-in-law Jiang cleaned up the fish together, simmered it and fried it halfway through the pot, and stewed half of it.
Su Chang'an and his brothers came back with Shang Yi, and it was only at this time that the brothers knew that it was Shang Yi and his men who were going to live next door.
"It's time to eat, Master Ji asked Brother Zixu and Brother Shaoqing to take your food back to the yard to eat!" Su Xiaoluo didn't want to listen to Shang Yi nitpicking in her own home, she knew that her cooking skills were not comparable to the master, but it wouldn't be as bad as he said!
"I haven't seen Grandma Su for a long time, say hello to the old man, since they have all entered this hospital, let's eat together! Why bother to bother with it! Shang Yi put on an empathetic look, and Su Xiaoluo's teeth itched when he saw it.
If he stays to eat, he and his grandmother will have to avoid it, and his father and second uncle are not familiar with him, so everyone is awkward. Originally, the family could have a reunion dinner, but because of his joining, the plan was disrupted.
Hearing that the handsome boy came last time, Su Qin's family got up to greet him: "The folk woman has seen the son." ”
"Milk, this is Lord Ji!" Su Xiaoluo whispered.
Zixu and Shaoqing lowered their heads and snickered, Miss Su, our master has never said that his surname is Ji, why do you recognize his surname Ji!
"Official? Should we kowtow? Su Qin's granddaughter was called, his son and his little grandson, and he was ready to officially meet "Master Ji".
Don't kowtow! Su Xiaoluo's eyes rolled and he interrupted: "Master Ji and my father must be tired and hungry, let's eat first!" ”
Shang Yi was not polite, and when Su Qin's family sat down, he also sat down: "Su Xiaoluo, didn't you say to open the meal?" What about rice? ”
"Come now!" Su Xiaoluo turned around and went out, walked to the door and glared back at Shang Yi, even if you are an official, you must have the consciousness of being a guest! He is not his maid, how can he be embarrassed to speak!
During the meal, there was a table for men, Su Xiaoluo and her grandmother took Fusheng to another room to eat, and Shang Yi asked Zixu to set a table for the three of them.
After eating for a while, Shang Yi made a comment: "The braised meat is good, it is definitely not Su Xiaoluo's craftsmanship, the small fish is also quite delicious, I should reward your cook." ”
"Master Ji, are you sure that the small fish and braised pork are well done?"
Shang Yi nodded, Su Xiaoluo wanted to call Sister-in-law Ma in, but after thinking about it, forget it, for the sake of Shang Yi is Ji Hua's relative, save him some face.
"Sister, I want to pee!" Fusheng was full of food and drink and jumped off the stool.
"You go by yourself, it's so old and noisy, your sister is very tired after a day's work." Su Changgeng taught his son a lesson.
"Then I'll go out by myself, sister, I'll sleep with you tonight!" Fusheng didn't forget to ask when he went out, and he could see the red fox when he lived with his sister.
"Sister-in-law Jiang, you take Fusheng out, have you eaten with Tinker Bell and Xiao Gudong, these two girls have been tired for a day, and I don't know if I will be able to raise my arms tomorrow." Su Xiaoluo felt distressed when he thought of the two maids.
"Su Xiaoluo, have you ever read a book? The names given to the maids by others are very elegant, are you afraid that others will not know that there are two noisy maids around you? It's also jingling, coo, why don't you name them Xili! ”
"You don't know how to choose a name? Tinker Bell and Little Coodong are good, huh? What's so bad about being catchy. ”
"You listen to the names of my subordinates, Zixu, Shaoqing, Mu Feng, Jinchen, and then listen to your names, the gap is too big, right?"
"According to what you mean, girls all over the world should be called Ruhua and Qinqing, right? As long as I want to do this kind of thing, the two of them have no opinion, what do you care? ”
The Su family and Shaoqing moved their eyes back and forth between Su Xiaoluo and Shang Yi, and finally came to a conclusion that the two people who were arguing in front of them must be incompatible. The last time they met, they quarreled, and today they quarrel over trivial things, and they are not like this when they face others!
There was a sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and the door of the hall was called from outside: "We have a guest!" Isn't this the same son from last time? Are you here to see my mother-in-law or Xiaoluo! Zhang Xingye glanced at Su Xiaoluo, could it be that she really had that blessing to be taken by this son! This is something to ask about, because she's here tonight with a mission.
"This official is here to inspect agricultural affairs, and he temporarily lives next door to the Su family." Shang Yi's attitude took a 180-degree turn, putting away the critical expression just now, and his face was dignified and detached.
"It's good that you're not here for this girl, mother-in-law, eldest brother, I came to propose marriage on behalf of my sister-in-law today, and my nephew took a fancy to our family, and was willing to pay a dowry of ten taels of silver to marry her." Zhang Xingye is a big mouth, she can't hide things, and she doesn't care if there are outsiders in the house, so she said the purpose of her coming in one breath.
It's not bad to marry a daughter-in-law in the countryside and give a dowry of three or five taels, ten taels of silver is definitely a huge amount of money, Zhang Xingye in order to break his son's thoughts, in order to get the two taels of silver promised by his sister-in-law, he personally came to Su Xiaoluo to propose marriage.
"Second aunt, please go back and tell the other party, I have something to do now, I haven't thought about getting married, and I have no plans to marry in three years." Su Xiaoluo refused very simply, and did not give others a chance to speak.
A little girl heard that someone came to the door to propose marriage, but she was not shy to avoid it, but she refused to do it herself...... It's the first time Shang Yi has encountered it.
