Chapter 112: Sweeter than Strawberries
Ruan Ling didn't believe it, so she gave Fang Qin a look, Fang Qin took a chopstick and fried meat with chili peppers, and ate it: "It's not very spicy, it can only be regarded as slightly spicy." ”
Ruan Cheng said in a rough voice: "This is what Xu Hui said, our family loves spicy food, and you are not used to eating too spicy, so you used the chili sauce specially pickled for you at home to stir-fry." In normal times, we would have eaten much spicier. ”
Ruan Ling's face was not good, and she knew that she was at a loss, so she said forcefully: "It's still sister-in-law who is careful and thoughtful." ”
"Hurry up and eat, it's all here, you're not hungry, the children are still hungry." Grandma Ruan spoke.
The two brothers Ruan Duo and Ruan Cheng were drinking wine and chatting, Qin Zhen and Xu Hui were also harmonious, and Grandma Ruan greeted Ruan Siyao and Fang Min, but it made Ruan Ling and his wife embarrassed.
After eating, Grandma Ruan was going to take Ruan Siyao and Fang Min to the small courtyard at the door to bask in the sun, Ruan Duo and Ruan Cheng drank wine, were a little drunk, and were arranged to go upstairs to take a nap, Ruan Ling and his wife used the excuse to go to the vegetable garden to pick some vegetables and eat at night, and the dishes and chopsticks on the table were naturally handed over to Qin Zhen and Xu Hui.
There are only two concubines left in the house, and the two of them don't have any scruples to talk.
"Qin Zhen, what does the third child think? Why did you agree to let Fang Min go to the law firm, that girl is a kindergarten teacher, what can she do when she comes to you? ”
"Who knows, people are stuffed over, and they always have to arrange a job for her." Speaking of this, Qin Zhen was a little unhappy.
"Well, who told you to be in the city?" Xu Hui knew the troubles in Qin Hao's heart, and comforted: "Fortunately, Fang Min is still obedient, she is not like her mother, she shouldn't stab you when she arrives in the city." ”
"That's why I agreed, and if it were like her mother, I wouldn't have agreed." Qin Zhen sighed, "I just don't want her to live in our house, it's not because of Fang Min, if Ruan Ling lives with her, I can't stand it." ”
"Hey, don't say it, if you really let Fang Min live in your house, Ruan Ling is really likely to follow. You have to be resolute in this matter, and if you really let her live in your house, you may not be able to create some moths. ”
"This matter is for sure, Ruan Ling's character, which of us doesn't understand. I'd rather rent a house for Fang Min than let her live in my house. ”
"But I heard that their family seems to have bought a house in the city, of course, I'm not entirely sure about this, if it's true, I shouldn't be able to live in your house. There is no reason to live in someone else's house if you don't live in your own home. ”
Qin Zhen breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good to have a house in the city, it saves us a lot of trouble." ”
Xu Hui reminded again: "But you still have to take it easy, I heard that the company where Ruan Ling works seems to be going to lay off employees, and if she is really laid off when she is really laid off, she may have to find your family." ”
"But Ruan Ling is so old, do you want to work as a cleaner in a law firm, she is such a good-looking person, she shouldn't be."
"Have you forgotten your dessert shop? If you have to go to the store to help you, you're going to be annoyed. ”
"No, it still depends on the rhythm of our family!"
"I'm not sure, even to give you a wake-up call, she won't necessarily be fired."
"Everyone is a family, eldest brother and sister-in-law, you don't take advantage of my family, she, who is the second sister, knows how to calculate brothers all year round, and she is not ashamed."
"Hmph, almost a month ago, she was looking for a job for her concubine, saying that she was going to work in our factory, and she didn't need to find any powerful positions, just be a clerk." Xu Hui put on gloves and prepared to wash the dishes, "It's not that I said, her concubine went to junior high school, and she has to work as a clerk in our factory." Although we are a factory, there are many college students in the factory. ”
"She's really good, she knows how to use her mother's things to subsidize her mother-in-law's family, and she doesn't see her buy anything for her mother, so she knows that she will come back to suck blood."
"But no, you don't know, I made my mother so angry last time."
There is a small wooden house in the courtyard, and there is a whole wall of floor-to-ceiling windows facing the sun on the south side of the house, which was specially built by Ruan Cheng for his daughter Ruan Siyu. In winter, it is not too comfortable to bask in the sun in the cabin.
"It's going to snow in the next two days, and it will definitely be very comfortable to bask in the sun and drink tea in this house at that time." Grandma Ruan sat in the rocking chair and squinted comfortably.
Ruan Siyao moved a small bench and sat next to Grandma Ruan, lying on Grandma Ruan's lap, "Then I don't think I can see it, I'm going to leave in two days." Grandma, did you mean it, you just said it to make me envious. ”
"yes, I forgot about it. Your grandmother should be in her twenties by now, so you have to bring a little thinner clothes there, because the place is really warm enough. ”
"Grandma, is Yaoyao going to her grandmother's house for the New Year?" Fang Min interjected.
"yes, I haven't been back for years, and it's time to go back." Grandma Ruan replied with a smile, "Good granddaughter, when the time comes, come back and bring something for grandma, I will love to eat your grandmother's bean curd, it is delicious." ”
"Okay, my grandmother is very good at doing this, and I'll carry a big jar for you when the time comes." Speaking of his grandmother, Ruan Siyao was very proud.
"Eh, this relationship is good, then you can also bring some side dishes I made to your grandmother. Not to mention anything else, my pickled side dishes are still delicious. Grandma Ruan was very complacent, "I have pickled a lot this year, more than a dozen jars, enough to eat for a long time." ”
"Okay, grandma also loves to eat the small dishes you make, didn't she send them every year before, grandma would be very happy if she knew that you had pickles again."
"I really envy you, you can still go far away, I haven't been far away except for college." Fang Min was extremely envious.
"Cousin, I still envy you, my grandmother is very close to my home. Unlike me, it takes so long to see my grandmother. Ruan Siyao propped his chin and said very sincerely.
Fang Min thought for a moment, "Each has its own benefits, I just envy you for going far away." ”
Xu Hui and Qin Zhen cleaned up the kitchen, Xu Hui brought a plate of cherries and a plate of blueberries, and Qin Zhen came out with a pot of tea. "Mom, let's have some tea."
"Auntie, you've packed up, so when are we going out?" As soon as he saw Xu Hui, Ruan Siyao's eyes lit up.
"I'll go now, I'll just say that. These cherries and blueberries are washed, you take some, let's eat while walking. ”
"Okay, let's go."
Fang Min saw that the two of them were going out, and hurriedly asked, "Auntie, where are you going to take Yaoyao?" Can I go with you? ”
"We're going to pick strawberries in the greenhouse, and if you want to, you can go together." Xu Hui also took a few cherries.
Fang Min hesitated, he didn't really want to go to the greenhouse, there was mud everywhere, and his shoes would definitely get dirty. "I'm not going, I'd better stay here with my grandmother."
"Okay, then the two of us will go."
Xu Hui took Ruan Siyao out and turned around to the village field. The Ruan family's land was planted with only a little bit of grain, and the rest were planted with vegetables, and a small piece of greenhouse was left alone, and strawberries were planted in the greenhouse.
"The master we invited this time is an expert in the village, and although it is winter, the strawberries in the field grow quite well."
"Really? I'm looking forward to it, I've never picked strawberries myself. Ruan Siyao was eager to try.
"Originally, we didn't want to get it, but when we heard that someone in the village had done it, we spent some money and asked him to help us get a little bit of it. Anyway, you love to eat, and your sister loves to eat too, and it just so happens that the two of you sisters will buy a lot of them as soon as they arrive at the New Year, and they grow them yourself, which can be regarded as saving money. ”
"Haha, auntie, how much did you spend to hire someone to build a greenhouse?"
"I don't remember much, I guess I don't have much money. Anyway, it's just fun, how fun it is to pick strawberries in your own field! It's much more interesting not to have to go to the supermarket to buy it. ”
"It's quite interesting, isn't it popular now, and those farmhouses also have strawberry picking projects."
When they arrived at the greenhouse, Xu Hui opened the door on the greenhouse, and the two of them entered.
The temperature in the greenhouse is really different from the outside, the outside is so cold that people shiver, and the inside can be said to be warm like spring. The strawberries in the greenhouse grow vibrantly, with green leaves and bright red strawberries, which makes people feel comfortable to look at.
"There's a straw bench over there, you'd better take off your down jacket and put it on it, otherwise you'll get hot after a while." Xu Hui took off her thick coat as she spoke.
Ruan Siyao also took off the down jacket on his body, "It's so warm inside, even if you take off the down jacket outside, you don't feel cold." ”
"That's for sure, if it's still cold in there, the strawberries won't grow! Hurry up and pick it, pick a little more and bring it back to everyone to eat together. ”
Ruan Siyao took off the rubber band on his wrist, tied his hair up, took the basket and officially started picking strawberries.
Xu Hui is more skilled than Ruan Siyao, Ruan Siyao has only picked seven or eight times, and she has already picked a small half basket. "You can just pick the big and red ones, and you can't tell if it's sweet or not anyway."
"Auntie, take a picture of me, I want to post it on Moments."
"Okay, you give me your phone, I don't brag, my technology is quite good, I promise to take a beautiful picture of you." Xu Hui put down the basket in her hand with a proud face.
"I believe in your skills, after all, Sister Siyu is very particular, you must have been grinded."
"No, she can't wait for me to sign up for a photo training class."
Ruan Siyao happily walked around the strawberry field, and Xu Hui kept taking pictures around her, taking dozens of photos before stopping.
Xu Hui handed over the phone to Ruan Siyao: "Come, pick it well, pick out the one you like and send it to Moments, and the eldest aunt will be the first to give you a thumbs up." ”
Ruan Siyao clicked on the photo album, "Wow, auntie, you are so amazing, you take a good picture of me." It's a bit shameful to say that, but I think I'm the fairy herself in the photo. ”
"It's because we're so beautiful, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to take such beautiful pictures." Xu Hui touched Ruan Siyao's head and smiled dotingly.
"Hehe, auntie, you come and pick it for me, make up nine sheets, and send a nine-square grid."
Xu Hui moved quickly and picked the nine that suited her heart, "Just these nine, they look amazing." ”
Ruan Siyao sent a nine-square grid, with the above copy: The strawberries I picked myself, I am as sweet as the strawberries, and there is a series of hearts behind it.
Before it was sent out, the eldest aunt's praise arrived, "I'm moving fast enough, this is cultivated with your sister." ”
"Quick, invincible, fast, give the aunt a refill." Ruan Siyao crossed his thumb and index finger and made a heart-to-heart movement.
The circle of friends soon received a bunch of likes and comments, Ruan Siyao replied to the comments beautifully, replied to all the comments, and was about to quit the circle of friends, when he received Jian Yunxi's comment: Sweet strawberry girl, you are sweeter than strawberries.
