Chapter 272: Encouragement
Cucumbers were also planted in the yard next door, but because of the qi, they didn't grow very well.
But even if it's like this, it's really edible.
No, after Dongfang Yanhe left the kitchen, he picked two fresh cucumbers that were not too big and came back, and then he went to the back of the kitchen and grabbed a large handful of bean sprouts.
After getting back all the things that his daughter-in-law wanted, he saw that his daughter-in-law was mixing the batter, so he asked: "Daughter-in-law, I got all the things back, what do I have to do left?" ”
"Wash all the bean sprouts, don't blanch them. Wash the cucumbers and cut them into shreds, the thin kind. That's fine, right? ”
Let this guy chop wood, that's absolutely no problem.
But Ye Chuliang had never let him do shredding or anything like that, she was really worried that this guy would cut out shredded cucumbers the size of French fries.
Seeing that his daughter-in-law looked down on his strength, Dongfang Yanhe snorted, "Daughter-in-law, you can't help but look down on me too much!"
Isn't it just to cut a cucumber shredded, what's so difficult about this!? You just wait, I'll cut it out for you in a while, and I won't miss it......"
That's right, but after half a quarter of an hour, the batter has been adjusted, and Ye Chuliang saw that the cucumbers he cut out were very thick, so he took the knife in his hand funny.
"That's a real fail, like you!" She complained, "Well, I'll show you what a shredded ...... is."
As he spoke, the knife in Ye Chuliang's hand clicked.
It's just a while, and Dongfang Yan and those cucumber strips that don't meet the standards have turned into cucumber shreds.
Looking at the cucumber shreds cut out by his daughter-in-law, Dongfang Yanhe looked at his cucumber strips again, and then touched his nose, "It has to be so thin......
"Naturally, the finer the better!" Ye Chuliang said, "But the master, you can cut it like this the first time, it's really good."
You see, this cucumber shreds are actually quite simple. Cut the slices diagonally first, and then cut the slices into thin strips along the line, and you're done. ”
While she was demonstrating, Dongfang Yanhe watched for a moment.
When she had finished cutting one, he volunteered to cut the rest.
Ye Chuliang didn't stop him, let alone feel that he was in the way, on the contrary, she handed him the knife in her hand with confidence, and she prepared the plate of steamed dough.
Seeing that his daughter-in-law was so relieved, Dongfang Yanhe was a little surprised, "Daughter-in-law, aren't you afraid that I will mess up again?" ”
If she messes up the conversation again, then she has to come over and help her rework, which will delay the time even more.
Ye Chuliang, who was looking for a plate in front of the cupboard, laughed lowly when he heard this, "No, you are so smart in charge, you must be able to learn such a simple thing."
Even if you can't learn it all at once, it doesn't matter if you slow it down. Anyway, I believe you, you're sure you'll be able to cut the rest of the cucumbers......"
In fact, Dongfang Yanhe's work in the kitchen is really not as clever as when he went up the mountain to hunt.
Just when Ye Chuliang said those words, the cucumbers he cut out were still very thick.
It's just that after hearing the words of his daughter-in-law, he subconsciously slowed down his movements, and even slowly cut the cucumbers that were not up to standard.
When he cut the cucumber seriously, Ye Chuliang glanced at him without a trace.
Seeing him seriously rework, the corners of his mouth slowly rose.
Yes, men don't pay as much attention to the kitchen as women do, but that doesn't mean they can't do it well!
If you keep hitting them and don't give them a chance, then who can do it well?
Even women, if they are constantly beaten, they will lose confidence......
In the 21st century, there are often men who need to be praised, and the more he is praised, the more energetic he will be!
This is not nonsense, but there is some truth to it.
Dongfang Yanhe is the kind of man who praises and does better.
A few nice words will not be missing a piece of meat, but it can make the relationship between husband and wife more harmonious, so why not?
Dongfang Yanhe didn't know what his daughter-in-law was thinking in her head, but he really tried his best to do his best in this work.
……
In the hall.
Liu Ye saw that his second brother and sister-in-law had gone to the kitchen, and An Tong and An Ping were sent to the door by Cheng Youyun to guard them, so they were a little cramped.
She knows the heart of her second sister-in-law, but she is a girl who has just reached the end of the day, and she is somewhat embarrassed.
"You're scared to be alone with me?" Cheng Youyun saw her holding the cup tightly, so he laughed, "You don't have to be afraid, the more you are afraid, the more I will be afraid." ”
"You're scared too!?"
Liu Ye looked at him in surprise when he heard this, "You just don't ...... nonsense."
Who is he?
Since he was born, he doesn't know how many big worlds he has seen, how can he be afraid.
"Of course I'm afraid."
Cheng Youyun took out a hairpin inlaid with red beans from his arms, "Originally, this hairpin should have been given to you when you were ready."
But at that time, I was in Jiangnan, and I never had time to give it to you. Make it up now, hopefully it's not too late......"
Looking at the hairpin in his hand, Liu Ye was stunned, "You made it yourself?" ”
This hairpin is made of wood, and although there are some patterns carved on it, the patterns look like they were made by hand.
After all, even those hairpins outside that cost a few pennies a piece will not have such poor workmanship.
"Hmm." Seeing that she saw it, Cheng Youyun's ears were a little red.
He looked at her with good eyes and said, "The first time I did it, I didn't do it very well." But don't worry, I will practice well in the future and make it better for you. ”
"No need......" Willow Leaf shook her head.
No need!?
As soon as he heard these three words, Cheng Youyun's heart tightened in an instant, "Do you think it's not good-looking?" ”
He also knew that the hairpin he made was really not very good-looking, and he originally wanted to buy it at the beginning.
But he felt that after all, he didn't have the heart to do it himself, and after some hesitation, he finally decided to do it himself.
But now listening to her words, he also regretted it a little.
If he had bought it, she would have liked it even more......
Looking at his somewhat annoyed look, Liu Ye shook his head, "Who I don't like?" What I don't mean is that you don't want to make hairpins, at least for now, don't bother with this.
You're about to die, and as soon as this autumn comes, you'll have to take exams. There's not much time left, so I think it's better not to spend your time on that. ”
She took the hairpin and rubbed her hand back and forth, "Also, you don't have to do things like today in the future."
Hello was born at home and read books, don't run around. ”
"Are you afraid that I won't pass the test?" Seeing that she was worried, Cheng Youyun asked.
Liu Ye shook his head, "It's not that I'm afraid that you won't pass the exam, my second sister-in-law, you are very smart, and it won't be difficult for you to come to the end."
But I still hope that you can have a good life, I'm afraid that there will be something in case. I've promised you that you won't run, you don't have to come to the village. ”
Other scholars are afraid that they are all reading at home, so he will come to the village when he has the opportunity.
If this continues, even if Old Man Cheng agrees with the two of them, I am afraid that there will be opinions.
I promised you that I wouldn't run......
The words in front of Liu Ye, Cheng Youyun really didn't take it to heart.
But when she said this, he looked at her for a moment, until he saw that her face was red and her eyes were dodging, and he nodded solemnly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. After I went back today, I was born at home and read books. But if you have anything, you have to find someone to tell me, you can't hide it from me, you know? ”
He wasn't afraid of anything, he was afraid that she wouldn't tell him anything.
After all, at this time, there is a lot of urgency everywhere.
If their family runs out of food and vegetables, they can also help.
Knowing that he was worried about his family, Liu Ye smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, if there is any trouble in our family, even if you don't want to help, I will write to tell you that I want you to help." ”
Hearing her words, Cheng Youyun turned his head to look outside.
Seeing that An Tong and the two were talking outside, and did not look into the house, he quickly held Liu Ye's hand.
Before Liu Ye could react, he had already withdrawn his hand again, "You wait, my grandfather will come over to discuss the marriage with your brother and sister-in-law before the end."
When the exam is over, we will get married. ”
Get married after the exam!?
Liu Ye was directly dumbfounded when he heard this, "This, my second brother and sister-in-law know about this!?" ”
They have never talked to themselves about this, according to their second sister-in-law's temperament, if they have discussed and talked, they will definitely talk to themselves......
But she didn't mention a word!
Cheng Youyun was shocked when he saw her, so he laughed happily, "Not yet, but they will definitely agree, don't worry about this matter......"
"Who's in a hurry!?"
As soon as Liu Ye heard that, he glared at Cheng Youyun directly, "When did I get in a hurry!?" ”
"Okay, okay, you're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry to marry you." Cheng Youyun said, "I have already discussed this matter with my father and mother, because they are in the capital, so they can't get along when we get married."
But don't worry, with my grandfather in charge, nothing will happen.
When we get married, we'll go see my parents again......"
Cheng Youyun originally wanted to come up with all his plans, but he saw that Liu Ye was already a little confused, so he said.
"But you have to agree to that, and we'll do it again. If you don't agree, then the matter of going to see them should be delayed for a while, and it will not be tight.
