Chapter 287: You make a fire and I'll stir-fry
"Mother, do you think Sister Xiaotuan will like me?" Jiang Xiaolan is already ten years old, and she has a capable mother who understands more than the girl next to her.
Dong Xiufang touched her head, looked at the big courtyard not far away, and said with a smile: "Xiaolan is so well-behaved and sensible, how can your sister Xiaotuan not like you, she has taken care of your little sister's prickly head, and she will definitely take care of you." ”
Jiang Xiaolan nodded, she also wanted to follow her to the capital, but unfortunately she was a step late, and when she arrived here, her grandmother had already taken Sister Xiaoyu away.
"Mother, I'm still a little worried, Sister Xiaotuan is so capable, and she didn't seem to like me very much before." Jiang Xiaolan Road.
"Oh, it was all a long time ago, you didn't bully her, your little sister Yu didn't give her a stumbling block, didn't she take people to the capital like this, she didn't worry about it, you are obedient, can she take you there? Remember what my mother told you, you must be sensible, but you can't learn from your little sister Yu, follow your little sister to the capital to see the world, and you can marry a good family in the future, don't have to suffer, your father and mother and your brother, but they are counting on you. ”
Dong Xiufang had already planned to send her daughter to the capital, this is only the first step, what she wants is for the whole family to rely on her daughter to soar, and it turns out that this one-third of an acre of land in the countryside is born.
Jiang Xiaolan nodded and gently patted the iron ring on the door, "Sister Xiaotuan, are you at home?" It's me. ”
I haven't seen it for a few years, Jiang Xiaotuan really didn't hear this voice at first glance, so he came out of the house to take a look, "Who?" ”
"It's me, Lan." Jiang Xiaolan was cowardly with a little generosity, Dong Xiufang on the side was quite satisfied with her daughter's performance, the girl's family is like this, shyness and timidity are the most likeable.
Jiang Xiaotuan frowned, and did not go forward, but said through the gate: "Is there something wrong?" ”
Jiang Xiaolan heard that her tone was very cold, and she looked back at Dong Xiufang at a loss, Dong Xiufang's face changed slightly, but when she spoke, she had a smile on her face, "Xiaotuan, I'm the third aunt, I heard that you are back, this is not Xiaolan said that she misses you, so she has to pull me up to see you." ”
Jiang Xiaotuan couldn't know much about this scheming third aunt, the weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, she must not be well-intentioned, she was ready to set off, so she didn't want to delay more in these things, "Worry about it, I'm fine." ”
She still didn't mean to open the door, Dong Xiufang's face was a little unbearable, how could anyone let the guests be outside the door?
"Xiaotuan, you open the door, the third aunt also wants to see you, I went to the capital, I must be more handsome, I was in a hurry when I came back last time, and I didn't say a few words to you." Dong Xiufang deliberately shouted in a loud voice, in order to let the neighbors hear, she thought that Jiang Xiaotuan had to open the door under pressure.
It's a pity that Jiang Xiaotuan doesn't eat this set at all, and if she doesn't open the door, she will be talked about a few words at most, saying that she is indifferent, but those who know her definitely know her character, as for those who don't know her, they can think whatever they want.
"Xiaotuan, my aunt knows that you are a good boy, but outsiders don't necessarily know, if they see us talking through the door, they think that you have an opinion on us and don't want to deal with us." Dong Xiufang said.
"It's not that they think so, it's that I really don't want to deal with you, I have already severed the father-daughter relationship with Jiang Shixian, strictly speaking, I have nothing to do with the Jiang family, since there is no relationship, we are not relatives, and there is no need to meet." Jiang Xiaotuan said lightly: "I don't have much here, so please go back." ”
Jiang Xiaolan came with confidence under the encouragement of her mother, not to mention the face, she didn't even enter the door, the little girl was also arrogant, and immediately pulled down her face, her eyes were red, and tears fell from her eyes.
Dong Xiufang was distressed, but she still glared at her, dissatisfied with her like this, she would definitely not be able to go well when she went to the capital in the future, who did she cry to?
"Xiaotuan, look at what you said, your father doesn't recognize you, it's his business, the third aunt doesn't treat you as an outsider, no matter how you and the Jiang family are, the third aunt wants to see you."
Jiang Xiaotuan shook his head, quite helpless, this person really can't get in, but the more she entangles, it means that she has a purpose, and this door can't be opened easily.
"I don't have to, if you want, stay outside." Jiang Xiaotuan said coldly, and directly turned his head and entered the house.
Ling Mubai heard the conversation clearly, and was very disgusted by the stalking of the two girls outside the door, and pulled Jiang Xiaotuan to sit beside him, "If you don't want to see them, you won't see them, if they don't leave, I'll ask someone to throw them out." ”
Jiang Xiaotuan shook his head, "Use a knife to kill chickens, don't worry about them, the two of them are more squeamish than the other, it's windy outside, and they will leave in a short time." ”
Jiang Xiaotuan really understands the two of them, at first Dong Xiufang still wanted to boil it, and when Jiang Xiaotuan's heart softened, they could meet each other, although they were not thinly dressed, but they couldn't stand the wind.
It's useless to shout, Jiang Xiaotuan is determined not to open the door, and Dong Xiufang also knows that if she continues to shout, it will be them who are embarrassed.
After a long time, the two of them couldn't stand it, Jiang Xiaolan's eyes turned even redder, and she choked up and said: "Mother, let's go back, I don't want to go to the capital, she doesn't want to see us so much, she won't care about me if I go, if she bullies me at that time, what can I do?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Dong Xiufang wiped her eyes away with a handkerchief, she still kept an eye on it, thinking that the wall had ears, "Your little sister is not that kind of person, how can she bully you, you are her cousin, it's too late for her to hurt you." ”
Dong Xiufang squeezed her eyebrows for a while, and finally let her daughter understand her intentions, but Jiang Xiaolan pouted and craned her neck to express disbelief.
Good things have been said, and waiting, it will be almost an hour, the door is still closed, Dong Xiufang has already felt the wind penetrating her clothes, and Jiang Xiaolan is even more trembling.
"Mother, I'm cold, I want to eat."
Dong Xiufang was also a little hungry, she looked at the closed iron door, and said, "Let's go, let's go see your grandmother." ”
When Jiang Xiaolan got up, her feet were numb, and she couldn't walk after a while.
Inside the house, Ling Mubai heard the footsteps of the two leaving, and said lightly, "Let's go." ”
Jiang Xiaotuan looked at the sun in the west, "It's quite persevering, it seems that what I want to do this time is not small." ”
"They want you to bring that Xiaolan to the capital."
Jiang Xiaotuan glanced at him, and Ling Mubai hurriedly explained, "They just said at the door, I heard it. ”
He pointed to his ears, "Those who practice martial arts naturally have better hearing. ”
Jiang Xiaotuan smiled, looking at him like that, he didn't blame him, "What kind of dream are they doing, they all want to go to the capital, heh." ”
"They are not the only people who want to go to the capital, many people want to go to the capital, after all, at the feet of the Son of Heaven." Ling Mubai said.
Jiang Xiaotuan looked at him and blinked, "I don't really want to, I was just forced to go to the capital at first, but then I stayed for the sake of the future of my younger brothers and sisters, but if I really choose it, I think the country life is not bad." ”
Ling Mubai laughed at first, but after she finished speaking, she didn't mention herself a word, and she was a little dissatisfied, "What about me?" ”
"You?"
Ling Mubai nodded, "Are you staying in the capital all for your family?" Where have you placed me? ”
Although he is in a high position, he is jealous, and he is still like a child, Jiang Xiaotuan held back a smile, "We have a one-year appointment." ”
"I remember, I don't need you to remind me all the time."
Jiang Xiaotuan, where did she remind him all the time, Tonggong said this once, but he was unhappy, she didn't say it in the future, "If I still choose to stay in the capital after a year, then it's for you." ”
It's not just the capital, she chose not to return to modern times, and it's only because of him, after all, she has fulfilled her responsibilities to her mother and younger siblings, and she can also protect them from worrying about the future.
Ling Mubai pulled her over, didn't say anything in his mouth, but thought in his heart, this is almost the same, but why is it so long in a year?
After tasting the intimacy, both of them blushed, Jiang Xiaotuan seized the opportunity and bounced up from his lap, "That, dinner...... What are you going to eat for dinner, I ...... I'll do it. ”
Ling Mubai felt that she was not a big tiger, she didn't need to be so afraid, but if she avoided it a moment later, he really didn't know how far he would indulge.
"I like everything you do."
This sudden love word made Jiang Xiaotuan's cheeks burn even hotter, "That'...... Then I'll do whatever I want, eat whatever I have at home, and I'm going to leave anyway. ”
After being away for so long, she really didn't worry about her mother and younger siblings, it wasn't like she was in the countryside, it was the capital, it was changing rapidly, and no one knew what would happen.
Probably nervous, when Jiang Xiaotuan went out, she almost tripped over the threshold, she covered her cheeks in embarrassment, it was really embarrassing.
However, she thought that she could finally stay away from him and calm herself, but the man followed again, "I'll help you." ”
"You? Help me? What will you do? Jiang Xiaotuan really doubted his ability, his good-looking hands, holding a sword, holding a pen, she believed it, holding a kitchen knife? Unrealistic, right?
Washing vegetables? Can he wash it clean?
Ling Mubai was humble, "I don't know anything, but you can teach me, it shouldn't be difficult to make a fire." ”
When he was in the wild, he also lit a fire, but when he was stuck to the stove, he didn't know if there was a difference.
Since the man was so studious, Jiang Xiaotuan didn't want to discourage his enthusiasm, so he agreed, but this was just a fire ...... It's really not very good.
Rao is Jiang Xiaotuan's cooking skills are very high, and two of the three dishes are pasted, looking at the black and swarthy dishes, Jiang Xiaotuan stalled his hands, "What you just said, you like everything I cooked, so ...... You've got to eat it all. ”
