Chapter Twenty-Four: The Man in the Shadows, Revealing His Hidden Secrets

Ji Youyi sandwiched a piece of pork ribs into Aunt Wang's bowl, "Yes, it's all home-cooked side dishes, don't dislike it." ”

These talents, Aunt Wang also dislikes them.

"Such a delicate dish, just like the one made in that restaurant, how can you still dislike it." She amazed at the entrance of a piece of pork ribs, and her eyes lit up instantly, "Ah, this, why is it so delicious, how do you do it?" ”

Ji Youyi also learned after crossing that in ancient times, the meat dishes of the farmhouse were simple, and the steps to remove the smell of the tide were sometimes omitted.

There is only a little ginger shreds in the meat dishes, and the cooking wine is not put to remove the fish, and it tastes firewood and sour, and the taste is really bad.

She smiled lightly, "Auntie thinks it's delicious, so eat more, and the method is actually very simple, that is, the ingredients used should be sufficient." ”

A sentence of material is sufficient, and Aunt Wang knows that she is afraid that it will cost a lot.

"Youyi's cooking is delicious, but it's really better than the one made in the hotel." Aunt Wang praised and ate other dishes by the way.

Ji Youyi picked up the wine glass and poured a glass for Dr. Liu and Zhao Zhuang.

"I don't know how to drink, Brother Zhao, you can accompany my master to have a few drinks."

Zhao Zhuang didn't shirk either, "Okay, Doctor Liu, I'm really wiped out today, thanks to you, I can eat such a good wine and food, I toast you." ”

Dr. Liu was not polite, and drank it all after clinking glasses.

"Yes, yes, good daughter red."

He smacked his lips and smiled in satisfaction. Although this wine is not a grade compared to his previous wine, in this small village, this wine is considered a good wine, but it is still not as good as Ji Youyi's own wine.

"Youyi, when will the jars of wine you buried before be opened?" He looked forward to Ji Youyi's later wine and never forgot it.

Of course, Ji Youyi knew that his idea of playing those drinks was not a day or two, and it was time to count the days, and then she was still waiting to use these to change Dr. Liu's mind.

"It's just a few days, if it clears up during this time, you can unpack it."

"Well, that's good." As long as Dr. Liu has wine, he can forget any troubles for a while.

A few people ate and drank, talking and laughing, and it was raining lightly outside, and the house was happy and interesting.

After being full of wine and food, Aunt Wang helped Ji Youyi pack up her things together, and Zhao Zhuang and Dr. Liu talked in the room, watching the two children read and learn words by the way.

Brother Yuan was not so quiet, but seeing An An obediently sitting on the side and practicing calligraphy, he was also a lot more honest and took his endorsement seriously.

Aunt Wang smiled through the window and looked at the two people in the room, "Youyi, thanks to you, my brother Yuan can be so serious." ”

"Auntie, you are joking, it is Brother Yuan'er who is motivated by himself, otherwise no one will be able to control it." Ji Youyi said politely.

Aunt Wang saw the matter in her eyes, and suddenly thought of what Aunt Wugen said recently, and she was comforted, and the smile on her face became stronger: "I see that Brother Yuan is so well-behaved, if Da Zhuang marries a new daughter-in-law in the future, I think I should be able to get along well." ”

Ji Youyi listened to this and said, "Aunt Wugen came to tell me today, auntie, you have taken a fancy to a girl from the next village?" Said it was going to arrange a kiss? ”

"Yes, it's Lan Lan from the next village, that kid is good, strong, and willing to work hard, but the bride price is a little more. But as long as the person is good, as long as the big man likes it. ”

"Does Brother Zhao agree?"

"I haven't told him this yet, I'm going to discuss it with him when I go back today."

Aunt Wugen came to the house a few times, and everyone had already said the same, so she waited for Da Zhuang to nod her head, and then went to the next hire. Thinking that she was going to do a happy event, Aunt Wang couldn't close her mouth.

She looked at Ji Youyi, thinking that although Youyi had a child, she was also a capable child, and besides, Youyi's appearance was really beautiful in the village.

"Youyi, do you have any plans to get married? Auntie can help you find a good person. ”

Ji Youyi wrinkled her eyebrows and smiled awkwardly, "Auntie, An An is still young, I am alone with the child, and I don't want these things for the time being." ”

"Youyi, don't blame the eldest lady for being talkative, this woman is just looking for someone to rely on." Aunt Wang disagreed with Ji Youyi's idea, and persuaded: "You and An An, orphans and widows, you have to rely on men to do any heavy and dirty work at home, while you are young now, it is good to find someone as soon as possible." ”

"Let's talk about that."

Ji Youyi doesn't want to talk more about this topic, women in the new era are much more indifferent to things like getting married. After all, money can solve a lot of dirty work, and getting married may not be able to solve these things.

She hurriedly finished what she was doing, cleaned up the stove, and left the kitchen.

"Auntie, let's go into the house and drink some tea." She carried the teapot and beckoned Aunt Wang back to the house.

Aunt Wang also saw what she meant, so she didn't say much.

Dr. Liu saw that the hour was not early, it was raining, and the sky was getting dark quickly, so he got up and left.

"Youyi, I'll go back first."

Seeing this, Aunt Wang also pulled Zhao Zhuang to say goodbye to Brother Yuan, "Then we will go back too." Youyi, thank you today. ”

"Auntie, what are you talking about, it should be me thank Brother Zhao."

Ji Youyi got up, sent the people out of the small courtyard, and after watching them leave without a trace, she slowly walked back to the house, and suddenly, the feeling of being spied on appeared again.

She had a hair on her back, and an evil fire rose from her heart, and she turned around and shouted angrily, "Who, who's there!" ”

There was a sudden movement in the dark corner outside the hospital, Ji Youyi ignored it, chased out, and found no figure, only saw a few intermittent deep and shallow footprints left on the ground.

She followed the little traces and tried to chase down, but the footprints were soon gone, and there were several families around, and she couldn't knock on the door one by one, so she could only turn around and go home.

On the way home, she carefully observed the footprints, last time only left two footprints can not explain anything, this time there are whereabouts, can see a little doorway.

The footprints are deep and shallow, and there will be such traces, and the person who comes is likely to be lame, or the leg is injured and inconvenient.

"Could it be Uncle Zhao De?"

He came to see his house repair the roof?

Ji Youyi speculated, but she was not sure that Uncle Zhao De's house happened to be over there. But this thing doesn't make sense, after all, this snooping is not a day or two.

She went home with doubts, and An An sat in the courtyard waiting for her to come back.

At that time, he came out after hearing the roar, his mother had already run out, he did not choose to go out, but sat in the yard, he understood very well, he knew that he was a child, and he couldn't help when he went out, so he obediently looked after the house.

"An An, why are you sitting here?"

"Wait for my mother." After An An looked at her mother's body, she followed her previous appearance of comforting herself, and touched her head: "Mother is not afraid, An An protects you." ”

"People are small and ghosts are big." Ji Youyi smiled: "Okay, let An An protect me in the future." Let's go, let's go back to the house. ”
