Chapter 20 Expressing Attitudes

"Xiao Yun, there is a guest at home at noon, you drive and your dad to buy some food and come back." Zhang Heng stood in the hall on the second floor and called Li Yun out.

Li Yun was even more confused, and only said vaguely: "Didn't you buy vegetables in the morning?" ”

"If you want to go, you will go, hurry." Li Yun was chatting with Ning Ye, and Ning Ye followed and said, "Aunt Zhang, what do you want to buy?" We bought quite a few dishes in the morning. ”

"Buy some crabs and lobsters and come back, you young people love to eat this." Zhang Heng said with a smile.

"Mom, where are there crabs around us? How far do you have to go? Li Yun pouted.

"Sure enough, I don't know, go, you follow Dad, take you to see the way, and you will know that you bought it next time." Li Guangming came down from the third floor and walked as he walked.

"Mom, make no mistake, my dad still knows how to buy groceries? The sun didn't hit the west either. Li Yun had a ghostly expression.

"You don't just buy vegetables, I also sell them. Like you, you know how to eat ready-made meals every day, hurry up. Li Guangming walked downstairs without stopping.

Banxia heard the movement and hurried into the car, Ning Ye watched the car drive out, and then talked to Zhang Heng: "Aunt Zhang, Uncle Li still sells vegetables?" ”

"How poor I was at that time, not only did I sell it, but I also planted it, and when I was in a natural disaster, I was looking for wild vegetables in the mountains every day." Zhang Heng nodded and smiled.

"It's true that your generation has suffered a lot." Ning Ye said with emotion.

"I'm okay, my brother is close to me for everything, even a bamboo chaff, he is close to me first, hey......" If everyone has a death hole, Zhang Heng's death hole was his brother Zhang Yuan in the past, and then Zhang Shuqiu.

Ning Ye thought for a while and asked, "You want to come at noon?" Is that the same Long Shanshan you said in the kitchen? ”

Zhang Heng was originally walking into the backyard, but when he heard Ning Ye say this, he paused, turned his head and said with a smile: "Xiao Ye, Auntie has something to say, I see that you are very interested in our family Xiaoqiu." ”

Ning Ye suddenly realized why Li Yun was so afraid of Zhang Heng, this look and aura, ordinary people must not break out in a cold sweat on their backs.

Ning Ye blinked, suddenly retracted his expression, and asked solemnly: "Yes, I have been looking for Xiaoqiu for many years, and this time, I will definitely not miss it again." I also hope to get the approval of you and Uncle Li. ”

Zhang Heng looked straight into Ning Ye's eyes, and Ning Ye didn't avoid it, just his eyes were firm and smiling. Zhang Heng was suddenly a little moved, and said straight to the point: "I have a lot of worries, after all, you have a special identity. Besides, Xiaoqiu has already suffered too much, and now we just want her to be happy and happy, and we don't want anything else...... But you are also in your thirties now, and you should know what you want and what you don't want. Moreover, people always have to look forward, and Xiaoqiu is the same......"

"Aunt Zhang, thank you for telling me bluntly, although marriage is a matter of two families, but I am in our family, and I can still make my own decisions about this matter. My parents have always respected you and Uncle Li very much. What's more, if you only talk about personal conditions, Xiaoqiu is no worse than me. Although I have been looking for Xiaoqiu for many years, if she is now married and has a happy life, I should naturally bless her. But now she has been single, and it is still a mystery why. Of course, this is also my chance, so no matter what, I will not give up easily. Ning Ye's words were clear, from the family to personal feelings, to his own determination, it was difficult for Zhang Heng not to appreciate such a son-in-law candidate.

Zhang Heng sighed and said: "Auntie wants to remind you, you are very persistent, this is a good thing, but this kind of thing, not persistence will necessarily have a good result, we Xiaoqiu's character I know, it is also very stubborn ......"

"Auntie, don't worry, as long as Xiaoqiu is willing to be with me, I will not fail her!" Ning Ye said this very solemnly.

Zhang Heng wanted to say something, thought about it and sighed, didn't say anything, turned around and went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, the second aunt put the vegetables that had just been picked up from the vegetable garden into the pool, Zhang Shuqiu picked up the machete and was about to chop the chicken, Yu Chuan was pickling fish, Qu Yingying was dipping rice noodles on the pork belly, and the four of them were talking and laughing, as if they had returned to their former peace.

A few people saw Zhang Heng walking in with a smile on his face, and said as he walked: "Xiaoqiu, your uncle is in a good mood today, he went out to buy crabs, and we will steam crabs at noon later." Eh, you put that chicken down, let me chop it, you chop a big piece and a small one, hurry up, wait for me to get an apron. ”

Zhang Shuqiu pursed his lips and said, "Anyway, it's all eaten when it's cooked." ”

"Aunt Zhang, let me do this kind of hard work." Ning Ye followed Zhang Heng into the kitchen and hurriedly said.

Zhang Heng took the apron, and when he heard Ning Ye say this, he only handed him the apron and said, "It's okay, then Xiao Ye will chop it." Ning Ye put on his apron and walked over, Zhang Shuqiu saw him walking towards the board, hurriedly flashed to the side, and went to the pool to help the second aunt wash the dishes.

The second aunt saw that Ning Ye was starting to chop the chicken, and said with a smile: "That Xiao Ye, right, you just help me chop the mutton by the way." ”

"Okay, second aunt, you bring the mutton, and if there is anything else to chop, give it to me." Ning Ye glanced at Zhang Shuqiu and replied with a smile.

The second aunt came over with the mutton, stood opposite the board, and looked at Ning Ye with a smile and said to Zhang Heng, who was helping Qu Yingying make rice noodles: "Ah Heng, look, usually I only say that our Xiaoyun is good-looking, and this Xiaoye is also a handsome guy, just put on this apron and stand in the kitchen, which is quite eye-catching." ”

Everyone in the room laughed when the second aunt said it, and Zhang Heng responded with a smile: "It's good-looking, Xiao Ye is much more stable than our Xiao Yun." ”

"Xiao Yun is not bad, to say, it is Xiaoshan, who is also such an adult, so thin that a gust of wind can blow it down, I don't know when I can eat a little fatter." The second aunt smiled and compared.

"When he gets married and has children, he will naturally be blessed, so let's hurry up and urge him to find a daughter-in-law." Yu Chuan joked beside him.

"Isn't this the reason, if I want me to say that Xiaoqiu, who is a sister, didn't take her head well, so Xiaoshan said every day that she was not in a hurry." The second aunt complained.

Ning Ye looked back at Zhang Shuqiu, only to see her suddenly stomp her foot and say, "Second aunt is really, Zhang Yunshan depends on me if he can't find a partner, he just wants to find a leader, that's also his brother, what does it have to do with me?" According to the second aunt's reasoning, it depends on me that you don't find a partner or get married all day long. ”

The second aunt looked at Zhang Shuqiu's pretending to be angry and said: "People all over the world don't look for a partner, they have nothing to do with me, just if you don't find a partner, it has something to do with me, if you don't look for it, don't you want me to talk about it?" I think you just don't read much, and I will recite it every day in the future, just like chanting the scriptures......"

A room full of people were busy with their own work, and they all smiled happily when they watched the second aunt take Zhang Shuqiu to tease the boring child.

Ning Ye felt that today was very good, Zhang Shuqiu's rare little daughter posture made him look ten out of ten. Thinking of the stolen kiss in the morning, my heart couldn't help but heat up again.

Zhang Heng smiled almost widely, and after finishing the rice noodles and meat on the plate, he raised his head and said, "Today, my second aunt and I are cooking, and you all go out to play after you finish what you are doing, so as not to take a vacation and not rest for a while." ”

Yu Chuan said with a smile: "A big family talks and laughs together, cooks and eats, how happy it is, and it's not tired, it's okay." ”

"How can any girl like to cook these days? If you don't have ready-made meals at home, I'm afraid you'll eat takeout. Zhang Heng said with a smile.

The atmosphere in the kitchen was harmonious, Zhang Yunshan came in with a basket of crabs and shouted: "The crabs are here, second aunt, let's light the firewood stove, so as to steam the crabs." ”

"Mom, how do you get this soft-shelled turtle? I'm not going to do it! Li Yun followed in and said.

"You put that turtle in the pool outside, and wait for me to get it." Li Guangming said.

"And shrimp, what do you do?" Banxia came in with another bag.

Zhang Heng smiled: "Steamed crab and spicy shrimp, okay?" ”

"Mom, that Banxia said that he was the best at making shrimp, so you can do it and let the half-chef show it." Li Yun raised his voice and shouted beside him.

"Alright, the girls are resting and let them show." Zhang Heng replied with a smile.

"There are still two catties of millet shrimp here, I'll fry some shrimp cakes later, Xiaoqiu likes to eat them." Li Guangming put the bag of millet shrimp on the board and said.

"Mom, don't you know, I've never seen it, my dad still has such a bandit side, he rushed directly to the kitchen of the old Li family, saw the two soft-shelled turtles and this little millet shrimp, without saying a word, found a bag to put on, and took the car up." Li Yun, Banxia and Zhang Yunshan, when they saw Lao Li shouting after Li Guangming, they were dumbfounded.

"I just said that I can't go if I don't go, Lao Li is still that virtuous, if there is anything good, take it and eat it yourself." Li Guangming slammed his mouth and said.

"Did you give the money?" Zhang Heng asked.

"Given, why didn't you give it, only more than less, and gave two bottles of good wine before he plugged his mouth, otherwise he would have to come home with me." Li Guangming said while dealing with the turtle.

For a while, the kitchen was full of people, and it was very lively, Zhang Shuqiu, Yu Chuan and Qu Yingying were simply squeezed out of the kitchen. Yu Chuan saw that Li Guangming was killing the soft-shelled turtle with a knife in his hand, very neatly, and said to the two people next to him with a smile: "You know how Chen Jun killed the soft-shelled turtle." At that time, I didn't lose a child, he didn't know where to get a soft-shelled turtle, early in the morning with a chopstick to lead the soft-shelled turtle to stretch out its head, every time the soft-shelled turtle stretched out its head, it was a knife down, the soft-shelled turtle retracted its head again, and then he was also tired of standing, simply moved a stool to lead there, until the morning, I laughed so much that my stomach hurt. Later, it was mentioned that the vegetable market was brought up and the fish seller was asked to help kill him. ”

Qu Yingying and Zhang Shuqiu remembered the scene depicted by Yu Chuan, and couldn't help laughing, Qu Yingying said: "This seems to be what your old Chen did. ”

"He also knows how to use chopsticks to lead, you go and ask Li Yun if he knows." Zhang Shuqiu said with a smile.

"People won't know about asking for help, I turned around one hundred and eighty times next to him, and asked him to take it to the vegetable market, and he screwed it like that." Yu Chuan couldn't help but hate itchy.

"Alright, you're always eating in your stomach." Qu Yingying said angrily.

"Xiaoqiu, those flowers you bought are about to be planted, and they will all wilt later." The second aunt took out the two handfuls of flowers from the dining room.

Zhang Shuqiu stuck out his tongue, hurriedly went over to pick up the flowers, and went upstairs to find a few vases. Yu Chuan boiled a pot of white tea in the pavilion, and Qu Yingying had already pruned the flower briefly.

Zhang Shuqiu has always been hanging on Long Shanshan in his heart, and it is better to have something to do than to be idle.

Zhang Shuqiu slowly put the flowers into the bottle. On the tea table, a gray-green dendrobium was placed, two light pink peonies were inserted, and a green plant was used as a backdrop, which was very fresh. He put a handful of daisies into a large transparent vase and placed it in the dining room. The rest was put in place according to the color and size, and the water was put in the house......

Banxia looked at the three girls who were talking and laughing in the pavilion with flowers and tea, and couldn't help but have some hot eyes, and poked Li Yun and said, "Are your sister's two friends married?" ”

Li Yun squinted at Banxia and said with a smile: "You are thinking crookedly, you are not afraid that people will use you to practice speaking." ”

Banxia looked at Li Yun with an expression of "you treat me as stupid" and said, "Everyone is a translator, a professional translator, and they can use me to practice their mouths." ”

"Ah, you're smart now, but those two are married and have children, so you don't have a chance. My sister is left, why don't you have a PK with Lao Ning? "Li Yun is also watching the excitement, and it is not a big deal.

Before Banxia could react, he heard a voice in his ear: "What did you ask him to PK with me?" As soon as Ning Ye took off his apron and washed his hands, he heard Li Yun being out of tune there.

"Don't worry, don't worry, that kind of mother, I can't live it, I don't dare to PK with you, you better find abuse yourself." Banxia is not Li Yun's fool.

"Then I don't have a problem, you don't dare to be single, and the others are either famous or definitely don't look down on you." Li Yun said with a regretful face.

"How do you know people don't look down on me? You see, I'm a talent, I can cook and make money. Banxia retorted.

"Anyway, it's not suitable, if you really want to find someone like them, I suggest you might as well let them introduce you to one, in their company, female translators are not old and young." Li Yun pouted.

Banxia's eyes lit up and said, "This is a good idea, you can help me say it." ”

Li Yun spread out behind the chair and said, "It's not that I'm looking for my daughter-in-law, so I won't go." You don't have the face to be skinny anyway, go ask yourself. ”

Banxia only hated itchy, but he couldn't help it, he was hesitating to go over and ask, but he saw Ning Ye's calm face and went directly into the pavilion: "Ask for a cup of tea, I haven't bothered to drink saliva in the morning." ”

Yu Chuan hurriedly said politely: "Director Ning, what kind of tea do you drink?" ”

"You're making white tea, aren't you? That's it. Ning Ye glanced at Zhang Shuqiu, who was still fiddling with those flowers, since that in the morning, Zhang Shuqiu hadn't looked at him with his eyes, nor did he talk to him, he had nothing to say, pointed to the bellflowers that Zhang Shuqiu was fiddling with and said, "What kind of flowers is this?" It's a pretty good color. ”
