Chapter 148: It doesn't hurt to know early
The voice was so loud that Su Man couldn't pretend that he hadn't heard anything, so he stopped and turned his head to look at Zhou's mother.
Mother Zhou also smiled helplessly, and stretched out her hand to invite Su Man back: "It's better to wait in the tearoom for a while." ”
Su Man bowed his head and followed Zhou's mother into the tearoom lightly.
There were still those little girls in the tea room, and when they saw Su Man coming in, they all immediately stood up and bowed.
Mother Zhou waved her hand and ordered, "You guys go out first, I'll talk to the girl." ”
The little girls hurriedly responded, bowed down and retreated in turn.
Su Man casually sat on the small pestle on the side, thought about it, and then asked in a low voice, "Mom, but what did the third uncle do to make grandmother angry?" ”
Mother Zhou originally thought that these three masters were the elders of the eldest girl after all, and it must be inappropriate for her to tell Su Man about the matter so arbitrarily, so she smiled and replied: "This master's matter, how can I know about it as a servant woman, the girl and rest assured, the old slave will go back to the old lady in a while." ”
Su Man understood Zhou's mother's thoughts, so he didn't ask any more, and held the teacup and drank the tea slowly.
After about two quarters of an hour, a little girl poked her head in, and said softly, "Mother, the old lady called you." ”
Zhou's mother hurriedly stood up and confessed her guilt to Su Man, and then quickly retreated.
Mother Zhou walked for a while, and the little girl poked her head in again, saluted Su Man with a smile, and said, "Girl, old lady, please come over and talk." ”
Su Man responded, stood up, and slowly walked out of the tea room.
When Su Man lifted the curtain and went in, Mrs. Su was leaning on the big kang near the window, her eyes half-closed. Her brows furrowed slightly, and her face was very ugly.
Su Man stepped forward lightly and called in a low voice, "Grandmother? ”
Old Madam Su slowly opened her eyes when she heard the sound, and the look on her face was much soothed.
She reached out and stroked the hair on Su Man's sideburns, and asked softly, "I heard the girl say that you have been busy in the big kitchen all afternoon today, but what good things have you made?" ”
Su Man saw that although Mrs. Su was smiling on her face, she couldn't hide her tiredness, so she felt a little distressed. She took off her shoes and climbed to the side of Mrs. Su to sit down, and then beckoned to the little girl holding the tray on the side, and said with a smile: "I see that this day is getting hotter and hotter, although mung bean soup is boiled in the big kitchen every day, but this soup is too much to drink, and I don't feel that it tastes good, so ah, my granddaughter changed this mung bean method, can you taste it?" ”
Old Madam Su was laughed at Su Man's playful tone: "Yo, I thought you were just a master who could eat, but now you have learned to do it, it's really not easy." ”
As she spoke, her eyes looked to the tray that the little girl was carrying.
On the tray are two small transparent glass bowls with a creamy yellow paste.
Seeing this, Old Madam Su couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked, "What is this?" ”
Su Man picked up a small bowl, carefully scooped a spoonful with a spoon, sent it to Mrs. Su's mouth, and said with a smile: "Don't look at it as unsightly, it tastes very good." ”
Mrs. Su originally didn't like this kind of slimy thing, but when she thought that this was what her granddaughter had worked hard to do for herself, she opened her mouth and took the spoon in her mouth.
I thought that this small bowl of paste would be slimy, but I didn't expect it to be a rustling taste when I entered my mouth, and there was no soft and sticky feeling at all.
The aroma of milk is slowly brought out between chewing, and the cold taste makes people feel cool.
Old Madam Su swallowed the smoothie, and then the ink artist Su Man's hair laughed in a low voice: "Yes, we have really grown up, and this mung bean paste is really delicious." ”
Su Man also smiled when he heard this, squinted his eyes and said, "That's not it, my granddaughter didn't do anything else this afternoon, so she stood on the edge of the bucket and peeled the mung beans." ”
As she spoke, she stretched out her white and tender palm and spread it in front of Mrs. Su's eyes, and said coquettishly: "Grandmother, look, my hands have been soaked in water all afternoon, and they are all wrinkled." ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Su smiled and held Su Man's little hand, patted it lightly, turned her head to Mother Zhou on the side and said, "Go and bring my jar of newly made preserved fruits and treat our girl." ”
Mother Zhou immediately responded with a smile and retreated.
Sure enough, it was right to leave the eldest girl, and the old lady was really in a much better mood at this time.
Su Man also smiled and nestled into Mrs. Su's arms, and laughed softly: "Then the granddaughter will thank her grandmother." ”
Mrs. Su nodded Su Man's forehead half helplessly and half spoiledly, and said with a smile: "The girl of the other family, you have a flower, the beauty of the hairpin is not good, you are good, but you like all kinds of food, but it is easy to feed." ”
Su Man straightened up unconvinced, crossed his waist and said: "Grandmother's words are wrong, no matter how good this flower is, it is also something outside the body, and this food is eaten in the stomach before it is properly your own thing." ”
Mrs. Su laughed out loud at her crooked reasoning, and after a while, she stretched out her finger and pointed to the small bowl of mung bean paste and said, "This thing is really delicious, did you give it to your mother?" ”
"It's been sent, it's been sent, it's all sent." Su Man nested back again, "Don't worry, not only my mother, but also the second and third aunts, I asked the girl to send a copy over." ”
Mrs. Su nodded with satisfaction, but she didn't know what she remembered, her face sank, and she sighed.
"If everyone in the family is as worry-free as ours, then my wife really has nothing else to ask for."
Su Man knew that Old Madam Su was thinking of Fang Cai again, she raised her head, looked at Old Madam Su's face, and asked cautiously, "Grandmother, what did the third uncle do to make you unhappy?" ”
Old Madam Su knew that when she lost her temper just now, Su Man was standing in the courtyard, so she didn't hide it at this time, she only nodded dejectedly, and sighed: "Your third uncle, I thought he was a young man, and I didn't expect him to shine on the lintel, so he liked to do business, so he let him go, but how could he have thought that he would ...... Alas! ”
Su Man was a little confused when he heard it, but he didn't dare to ask, he only stared back at Old Madam Su, but he didn't know how to persuade for a while.
Old Madam Su lowered her eyes and looked at Su Man, her eyes were kind and gentle: "I originally thought, you are still young, these things are not easy for you to know, but now that you are also a married person, there is no harm in knowing these things early." ”
