Ji Yuguang knew from the description that the Cao family was not suitable for being an in-laws, this family was the best, and I didn't know how much trouble there would be in the future.

But where can emotional matters be cleared?

Hu Liang and Cao Yunyunlang have a mistress, if they really beat the mandarin duck because of these fifteen or two sticks, not to mention the rumors in the face of rumors, Cao Yunyun is very likely to be as Widow Xie said, it is Hu Liang, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out of this relationship easily.

"Aunt Xie, it's better to listen to Brother Liangzi's opinion, in the final analysis, it is his life's event, and no one should take this idea for him. If Brother Liangzi has to marry, you are not allowed to stop it, and you may have to complain in the future. ”

Widow Xie thought that this was indeed the case, so she nodded.

"You're right, I'll ask him tomorrow. Actually, I didn't ask anything, didn't you see it, and when I left, the muddy boy's eyes were almost sticking to others...... The daughter of the Cao family was also sad when she cried. Alas! I can't blame her for this, it's just that her father, mother, brother and sister-in-law are not a thing! ”

Ji Yu suddenly remembered and asked, "What kind of person is the girl of the Cao family?" Does her father know that her father wants so many dowries? ”

It's not her villain's heart, but growing up in such a family environment, it's really hard for people not to be affected.

"I've met a few times, but I haven't talked about it in detail, but I look very shy and quiet, and I work neatly. It's not like she's a person all the way, and she shouldn't know about the gift money. Never mind! For the sake of the daughter-in-law, if the good son wants to marry, fifteen taels will be fifteen taels! ”

Widow Xie said as she spoke, but she made up her mind.

The old man said that there are three generations of virtuous daughters-in-law in the family. Anyway, the daughter of the Cao family married into the door, and she would have less contact with the Cao family in the future.

Ji Yu didn't say anything, as long as Cao Yunyun has a good character, can stand up, doesn't listen to her mother's pruning, and is willing to work together with Hu Liang to live, it won't be a big problem.

Early the next morning, Widow Xie called Hu Liang to her house, and the mother and son didn't know what they said, but when they came out anyway, Hu Liang finally had a smiling face.

After breakfast, the two took a mule cart to Caojia Village.

This time I came back before noon.

Widow Xie lifted the curtain and entered the east house, and went directly to the kang.

Ji Yu asked, and sure enough, she didn't even eat lunch.

"The Cao family is happy to stay guests, how can I eat! Now I don't have an appetite for the delicacies of the mountains and the sea. ”

Widow Xie pounded her heart, she was really uncomfortable.

Fifteen taels of gift money, plus the money for buying things yesterday, the thirty-five taels that I just got in my hand, suddenly went to seventeen taels, how can I not feel distressed?

Ji Yu felt that something was wrong, so she leaned on the kang and leaned towards her face, and sure enough, she saw that she was wiping her tears.

"Aunt Xie......"

Widow Xie didn't want to show her weak side in front of the juniors, so she turned her face away, and when she calmed down and spoke, her voice was still a little unclear.

"I'm just uncomfortable...... You don't know, I've been hungry and panicked all these years, and I haven't slept a single night, so I'm afraid that I won't be able to earn enough to eat...... It's easy to make so much money, and I'm finally more steady, and this time it's ......"

Ji Yu can understand her mentality.

There is no support, no sense of security, and it is all on your own gritted teeth. To her, the silver was the hope, and when half of the hope was removed at once, she panicked again.

Hu Liang stood outside the door for a while, then lifted the curtain and came in, walked to the kang and lowered his head.

"Mother, don't worry...... I will earn this money again after spending it, and I will definitely earn it well in the future, so that you will not live without money again. ”

"How can I not be in a hurry?" Widow Xie wiped her face dry, sat up with a bone, and could no longer see anything unusual.

"You tell me how can I not be in a hurry? Is his Cao family a rich man? Fifteen taels of silver is not enough, and it is necessary to build a new house...... Hu Liang, you should talk about it......" Widow Xie beat the kang a few times, and was speechless in anger.

Building a new home? It turns out that there is this one.

Ji Yu looked at Hu Liang, didn't he know that the remaining money was not enough to build a new house?

Hu Liang obviously understood Ji Yu's unspoken question, and hurriedly said: "I didn't agree, they said that the new house still needs to be built, and it is okay to slow down......"

"Is that slow? You don't understand what Mrs. Cao said? If the house is built next spring and there will be no delay in getting married, that is forcing us not to build it, and if you don't build it, you won't be able to marry someone's expensive daughter! ”

Widow Xie pointed at him and panted angrily: "Let me tell you Hu Liang, if it weren't for the gift money that they only mentioned, then the daughter of the Cao family would be a fairy, and if you don't marry her, you can't live, and I can't agree!" ”

Widow Xie originally planned to renovate the old house in the spring, give the east house to the young couple, Dacheng still lived in the west house, and then built two adobe houses in the backyard, and she moved over with the old lady, the younger sister and Xiao An Xiaohua.

Ten taels of silver is enough.

How could I think that the Cao family has such a big face, it has to be a new house and a new courtyard!

The nest can't be fed, it is obvious that Hu Liang likes his daughters, and he pinched them!

Hu Liang's head drooped lower and lower.

He didn't want to embarrass his mother, and he couldn't let go of Cao Yunyun, so he really didn't know what to do.

Ji Yu broke the deadlock between the mother and son: "Aunt Xie, we will build a new house if they want it, anyway, if it is built, it will be lived in by their own family, and if the money is not enough, I still have ......."

Without waiting for her to finish speaking, the widow waved her hand: "This is his daughter-in-law, let him figure it out by himself." If the silver has the face for others to give, then the daughter-in-law can't have the face to ask for it! ”

Hu Liang hurriedly said embarrassedly: "I, I'll find a way to ......"

Widow Xie immediately wanted to ask: It's up to you? What can you think of?

But remembering what Ji Yu said, she couldn't keep hitting the child, so she swallowed the words back.

Ji Yu came out of the East House, Dacheng and Xiao Mei cautiously came over and asked, "Sister Xiaoyu, didn't you say that you wanted to make Hu spicy soup for us, do you still want to do it?" ”

They also saw that their mother was in a bad mood and was afraid that they would not be able to eat the spicy soup.

"Do, people are iron and rice is steel, how can you not eat rice?"

Ji Yu rolled up her sleeves and entered the stove room.

The spicy soup she remembers must have shredded kelp, daylily, peanuts, gluten, fungus, and finally be sprinkled with a handful of chopped green onions.

It is best to use beef bone broth as the base, but the conditions do not allow it, and the pork leg bones are also okay.

Soak the big stick bones for enough time, change the water several times in the middle to ensure that there is no trace of blood, and then go down to the pot of cold water, and at the same time put in a large piece of meat that has been washed in advance, after boiling for an hour, take out the meat and let it cool and slice for later use, and the bones continue to boil for two hours for later use.

From the time Widow Xie and Hu Liang left, she took a few children and began to work on them, and this step had been done before they returned.

Hu Dacheng re-ignited the fire, Dabao burned the pot, and Hu Ximei helped wash the vegetables.

Ji Yu poured the bone broth into the new pot and threw a few sun-dried red peppers into it. Cut the tofu into cubes, shred the skin of the tofu, shred the kelp, and put it in with the cut meat and cook it until it breaks.

After the pot is boiling, stir well with half a bowl of cold water and freshly ground mung bean flour to serve as water starch and pour it into the pot. The soup suddenly thickened, and the surface was filled with charming little bubbles and a gurgling sound.

Finally, add salt, put an appropriate amount of pepper and peppercorns, and sprinkle a small handful of chopped green onions, and a pot of spicy and spicy spicy soup is ready.

The fly in the ointment is that there is no soy sauce to color, and there is no vinegar to enhance the flavor, so it can only be regarded as a castrated version of Hu spicy soup.

Even so, it's okay to see.

Widow Xie was dragged up by Ji Yu and pressed to sit down on the stool, so that everyone could try her new skills.

Widow Xie had no appetite, and she didn't want to spoil Ji Yu's mind, so she barely tasted it.

This taste didn't stop, one bowl quickly ran out, and the second bowl was gone.

Several children also ate a sweat, and finally the bottom of the pot was shaved dry and quiet.

Eating this in winter, his stomach was warm, and his whole body was comfortable, Hu Liang ate five bowls in a row, and he was still unsatisfied.

An idea occurred to him.

"Xiaoyu, how about you say that we will go to the town to set up a stall and sell this spicy soup?"
