Sun and the fifth aunt were talking about Chen Jinhong, the third sister-in-law.

Sun said: "This nephew and daughter-in-law, it only took ten days for them to go back to Lao Yang's house, and counting today, I will only meet her three times." ”

"In the past, I thought she was shy and shy, but now I see her helping us serve food and food, her hands and feet are really flexible, and people get along with harmony."

Hearing Sun's words, Bao Suyun also smiled and said: "Jin Hongren is really good, my Dabao and Mianmian went to their house in the front yard to play, and she also gave them snacks to eat." ”

"I went to the toilet in the backyard, and when I met us, we all said hello, quite a friendly person." She said.

Sun said: "If Jin Hong is good, then our sister-in-law can be regarded as a blessing." ”

Bao Suyun nodded: "Yes, our sister-in-law suffered in the first half of her life, and in the second half of her life, I hope that a few daughters-in-law can honor her well and let her enjoy a few years of happiness." ”

Sun said: "Not only the sister-in-law, but the eighth sister is also a good-tempered person, and she has always regarded losses as blessings. ”

"Jin Hong and her are concubines, both of them are good, they can get along better in the future, and everything will be prosperous in the family and talent!"

The two women were talking, and they seemed to have a good impression of the new member and good expectations.

Yang Ruoqing didn't interject, sat on the side and listened quietly.

For this third sister-in-law, it was the first time she had seen her today, and she was not familiar with it at all.

For people who are not familiar with her, she generally does not give random evaluations.

I sat with my mother and five aunts for a while, listening to them chatting and doing homely things, and before I knew it, the sun outside was in the west.

Bao Suyun stood up and said goodbye, and Sun stayed.

"You can eat at my place at night, save yourself from going back and burning, it's all ready-made meals at noon, and you can just throw some firewood into the stove later." Sun said.

Bao Suyun smiled and shook his head: "No need, the adults and children are well fed at noon, and when I go back at night, I will casually grab the rice and boil a little porridge to pass away, and it won't be troublesome." ”

"Okay, that's up to you." Sun said.

Sun and Yang Ruoqing sent Bao Suyun's mother and son out of the courtyard together, and the mother and daughter also turned around and went back to the courtyard.

"Baby still sleeping?" Sun asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "I don't know, according to her usual routine, it is estimated that it will take half an hour to wake up." ”

Sun nodded: "Okay, then I'll cook dinner later." The glutinous rice is almost soaked, so I'll go and grind the glutinous rice out of the pulp first. ”

Yang Ruoqing said: "Mother, I'll help you, let's grind together." ”

Tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival in early September, and one of the ingredients used to make chrysanthemum cake is glutinous rice.

"Mother, the molds I brought back to make chrysanthemum cakes, did you share them with the five aunts?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Sun said: "I sent it out this morning, they liked it so much when they saw the mold, and I praised you with this, saying that you still think about them when you have a heart." ”

Yang Ruoqing smiled: "It's just a little thing, it's nothing." ”

While laughing, the mother and daughter had come to the tofu room in the side yard, which was a special area for making tofu at home, and a stone mill was parked.

Yang Ruoqing pushed and grinded, and Sun scooped spoonfuls of glutinous rice with a long-handled spoon and dotted it into the grinding eye of the stone mill.

Then, with the help of the strong grinding pressure of the stone mill, the solid water glutinous rice is crushed, and the water is fused with the water to slowly flow out of the stone nest in a liquid form, and then drip into a wooden barrel placed at the bottom.

The mother and daughter are working and doing homework.

Sun said to Yang Ruoqing: "Your younger brother Da'an, after returning from Qing'an County, your father and I didn't dare to ask him about his grades, for fear of adding a burden to his heart." ”

"These days, there has been no news coming, I don't know how he did in the exam!" Sun said.

Hearing this, Yang Ruoqing's eyebrows moved.

Da'an is thirteen years old this year, and he has been in school for three years.

After this fall, Da'an and Dajie from his aunt's family went to take the hospital exam together.

Da'an and Dajie have already participated in the children's test before, and they are two standard children's students.

Now after taking the hospital exam, if they pass, they will be promoted to Xiucai.

Xiucai can also be called a student, which can be regarded as having the qualification to participate in the scientific examination, and it is also the first step in the Long March.

This is an important first step, but it is also difficult to take.

Brother Lobby studied for more than ten years before he finally got admitted to Xiucai.

And the late uncle Yang Hua'an, who was still a child for most of his life.

Of course, a scholar like Mu Zichuan may not have one out of 10,000 people.

"Since I came back, although I had the opportunity to be alone with Da'an, I didn't ask." Yang Ruoqing said while grinding.

"Ask him, he can't say anything,"

"Let's wait patiently for the results, according to the experience of the eldest brother who went to take the college examination in the past, the results should be only this month."

"When the results come out, we'll naturally know, don't ask." Yang Ruoqing said.

Sun nodded: "Okay, then don't ask." ”

"Qing'er, what if none of your two younger brothers are admitted to Xiucai this time?" Sun asked again.

Yang Ruoqing smiled, "Mother, you don't want this kind of mentality,"

"One time can't do it twice, two times it doesn't work three times, they are still young, and they are late in enlightenment, so I will take the test this year, purely as a test of the water."

Hearing Yang Ruoqing say this, Sun also felt that it made sense.

"Well, let's just test the waters, one year is not two years, two years is not three years, anyway, our family will do everything in their resources to provide him with education." Woman.

Yang Ruoqing nodded happily, yes, it is like this, cultivate to death.

Besides, Da'an's intelligence, she is still confident. What he needs is training, mental quality and performance when taking exams.

Time passed bit by bit, chatting, doing things, and before I knew it, the work was almost done, and the sky outside gradually darkened.

Sun went to the backyard to cook dinner, and Yang Ruoqing planned to go back and dress Luo Baobao.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I got out of the door of the utility room, I saw Tang Lingzi coming over with Luo Baobao in her arms.

Luo Baobao was neatly dressed, and he also wore a cute little octagonal hat on his head.

The hat covered all the broken bangs in front of the forehead, revealing a small round face, and a pair of eyes looked extraordinarily round and bright.

"Baby, are you awake? Did you sleep well? Do you want to be a mother? ”

Yang Ruoqing smiled and came to the side of the father and daughter, reached out and took Luo Baobao and held it in her arms and teased.

Sun also came over and teased Baobao Luo.

Sun also said to Luo Fengtang: "Tang Yanzi, I'm going to cook, and I'll talk to your uncle and aunt and your mother later, and come over to eat at night." ”
