024 Dredging relationships
"I'll just tell you how you stinky boy are willing to come back from the city."
"Mother, you have wronged me, I worked very hard in the city, my husband praised me, and said that I will definitely go to high school next year!"
Watching the mother and son walk into the house, Qu Xiaoqi's heart warmed, and she just hoped that her child could enjoy her care in the future.
"Mother, are they?" A little boy about thirteen years old was stunned when he saw Qu Xiaoqi and Ah Qing, these two people were unfamiliar faces to him.
"This is Qu Xiaoqi and her husband Jun Aqing, you have to call your sister and brother-in-law. Xiaoqi, this is the leather boy in my family, his name is Zhang Jiayong, you can just call him a dog. ”
Referring to his own life, Zhang Jiayong shouted dissatisfiedly: "Mother! ”
"Your name is Dogdan, my husband's name is Ergouzi, you are not much worse."
"It's easy to live with a cheap name, look at who in the village doesn't have a nickname?" Aunt Caifeng glared at her precious son, and then continued to entertain Qu Xiaoqi.
Qu Xiaoqi is a little hungry now, and the wild boar meat on the way back is a little greasy, and his mind has been on the green cucumbers in the garden.
After getting the permission of Aunt Caifeng, she went straight to the vegetable garden, and after picking two cucumbers, she realized that the food she made in the kitchen in this dress would make people have a bad stomach.
"Auntie, you don't have old clothes, so borrow me and Ah Qing first? I really can't ask for this dress. ”
"I'll look for it."
Soon, Aunt Caifeng took out two sets of linen clothes, which looked very new.
"This is the clothes I and my family used to wear for farm work, and we didn't wear it long before we changed careers." At the mention of this dress, Aunt Caifeng seemed to think of the past, and her face showed a happy look.
Aunt Caifeng's family Qu Xiaoqi is the most envious, there is nothing vigorous, plain is true.
His eyes involuntarily looked at Ah Qing, but he caught a glimpse of Ah Qing looking at him, with a gentle look in his eyes.
Qu Xiaoqi hurriedly put his eyes back on his clothes, hurriedly thanked him, and then picked up his clothes and drilled into the other room where no one was.
"This sister is so strange." Zhang Jiayong was confused by Qu Xiaoqi's actions, and then said to Ah Qing: "I'll take you to change your clothes." ”
After changing her clothes, Qu Xiaoqi felt like she had come to life, and she could throw that set of clothes as far as she could.
Before going to cook, Qu Xiaoqi also asked Zhang Jiayong to help Ah Qing recognize a few words, so that a little boy could enlighten Ah Qing, which also saved her a lot of effort.
Zhang Jiayong had a bitter face, and under the stern gaze of his mother, he resigned himself to taking Ah Qing to the study, why did he still read those books during his rest time?
Qu Xiaoqi is going to make a cucumber, but fortunately, Aunt Caifeng's onions, ginger and garlic are very complete.
It's a pity that there is no vinegar here, otherwise she could have made other cold dishes, as well as sweet and sour pork ribs that she has been hungry for a long time.
Tomatoes, shredded radish, meatball soup with sugar and egg custard.
Qu Xiaoqi's knife work is not good, and the shredded radish is still cut by Aunt Caifeng.
As soon as a few dishes were served, Zhang Jiayong came out of the study with a sniff.
"The meal is not good yet, you wait first."
"Good!" Zhang Jiayong can eat a few meals of rice and white flour steamed buns every time he comes back, so he is not surprised by this, but he just looks at the dishes he has never seen on the table and drools.
"Look at your worthless look." Aunt Caifeng patted Zhang Jiayong on the back of the head, Zhang Jiayong jumped up all of a sudden, and shouted: "Is it your own son, what if you break it and are not smart?" ”
"You kid, I haven't been pumped by my mother's feather duster for a few days, and your skin is itchy, isn't it?"
Zhang Jiayong was clever and clever, ran behind Qu Xiaoqi, and said: "If you don't help me stop this tiger, I won't teach your husband to read." ”
"Tiger? You call you a mother-in-law? ”
Looking at Aunt Caifeng's angry appearance, Qu Xiaoqi couldn't help but laugh, and opened his mouth to change the topic, "When will Uncle Zhang come back for dinner?" ”
"Don't wait for him, we'll finish eating in a while, I'll go to the city and bring him some."
"Auntie, do you toss so much every day?" Qu Xiaoqi was surprised, although the city is not far from the village, it is also very frustrating to send food back and forth every day.
"No, I brought him food, didn't I want him to taste your craft? He still can't forget the last meal he had at your place. Aunt Caifeng was a little embarrassed to say this, but it made Zhang Jiayong anxious, "Mother, when is the meal?" I'm going to starve to death! ”
"Stinky boy! Like your dad! Why is the mouth so greedy? ”
The meal was cooked quickly, and it was cooked with the egg custard, and Qu Xiaoqi used up almost all the eggs that Aunt Caifeng had saved in the past few days.
Although Aunt Caifeng didn't show a painful expression, Qu Xiaoqi herself was a little unhappy, thinking that she would go back and get more rice later.
I'll have a meal here in the evening, and I'll go to the city tomorrow to buy some dishes and chopsticks.
After eating and drinking, I saw that people outside were coming home one after another, or running to heaven and earth to deliver food.
It seemed that it should be time for them to eat at noon, Qu Xiaoqi got up and said, "I'll go to my uncle's house first and pay back the money I owed him before." ”
Aunt Caifeng frowned when she heard this, and asked, "Then do you still have silver on you that can be used?" If you can't do it, I'll get you some? ”
"No need, auntie, I earned some silver taels when I went out this time, it's enough."
Aunt Caifeng is still a little worried, "Why don't I go with you, Qu'an doesn't know how to make things difficult for you, she even went into your house to cut the quilt!" I'll go to the city in a moment and get you a dog back so that I can watch the yard at home. ”
Aunt Caifeng treats her really well, and there are really not many people who are willing to do this without relatives.
"Yes, Qing is here, my uncle is also here, and she can't make any waves."
Zhang Jiayong scolded his mother, and Aunt Caifeng realized that it was Qu Xiaoqi's family matter, and it was not good for her to get involved more.
As soon as Qu Xiaoqi and Aunt Caifeng walked out of the yard, they heard the old woman next door scolding at the person at the door, "I told you to stay away from my son!" What about spending time in the city? How can you compare to my son? ”
"This aunt, you have to find out, it's your son looking for me, not me looking for your son. In that case, I'm leaving, and I don't want to listen to you hurt others. ”
I didn't expect this person Qu Xiaoqi to be quite familiar, it was Qian Sanduo, who worked in the city before, and I don't know why he was dismissed.
"Is it really my son looking for you?" The old woman looked at Qian Sanduo suspiciously, and it didn't take long to hear footsteps from inside the house.
"Mother, what are you doing here? This eldest brother has someone he knows in the city, help me dredge up the relationship, don't you want your son to soar? ”
The old woman didn't know what Feihuang Tengda meant, and when she heard a new word coming out of her son's mouth, she was so happy that she couldn't do it, and her attitude towards Qian Sanduo was kinder.
"Yes, naturally, you are going to the city?"
"I'm going to meet the county lord with my eldest brother, you have to give me some copper money to dredge up, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be off the list again next year."
"Okay, hey, okay."
The old woman turned and went into the house, and soon took out a handful of copper coins. was counting, and was taken away by his own son.
Qu Xiaoqi shook her head when she saw it, it was really a wicked person who had his own wicked grinding, and she could believe this nonsense.
remembered that he passed by her house before and was scolded for no reason, Qu Xiaoqi had no sympathy, and it was better to think more about how to make money in the future.
As long as you make vinegar and soy sauce, then she will send it.
These and soybean oils all need to be fermented, and the steps are cumbersome, and she needs to study them little by little.
In fact, Qu Xiaoqi has a very flexible mind, and her previous academic performance was much better than that of liberal arts, and she was also lazy before.
At this point, if she doesn't make a name for herself, she will be sorry that God will give her another chance.
Even if she doesn't know how to heal and don't know how to kill, she can still make a fortune and have beautiful men.
Well, she already has a beautiful man, and this is a big step completed.
When I came to my uncle's house, sure enough, he was eating, just a simple boiled dish with rice bran.
Qu Xiaoqi's hands trembled a little, and the eldest aunt and Qu Rui sat on the side, doing nothing.
"You're going to do this for my uncle?" Qu Xiaoqi suppressed his anger and asked.
"Qu Xiaoqi! How daring! Dare to talk to your aunt like that! ”
Qu Xiaoqi now has the urge to slap the past, and I still remember that when I first walked through, the eldest aunt was still a little afraid of the uncle.
Uncle opened his mouth to explain: "Your aunt doesn't know how to cook. ”
"And she eats this too?"
Seeing the uncle nodded, Qu Xiaoqi's anger disappeared a lot, glanced at the eldest aunt, and said: "If you don't know how to do it, you can study, if you don't want to learn, let your daughter go to school, eat these things all day long, how can my uncle do farm work?" ”
"Qu Xiaoqi, you!" Qu Rui was reluctant on the spot, but she was frightened back by Qu Xiaoqi's gaze, she didn't have the identity of an elder to suppress Qu Xiaoqi.
"Uncle, I've come here to give you back the money. In the past two days, you have been busy with farming, and you have called Ah Qing to finish the farm work together. I'll bring you food at noon, and as for my aunt and cousin, let them learn how to cook on their own! ”
"Xiao Qi, this ......"
"You are my uncle, if my father is still alive, I don't want to see you like this. We are not afraid of poverty, we can't be spineless. ”
The uncle was red-eyed by Qu Xiaoqi's words, and said: "Actually, at the beginning, your aunt was a good person, but she was forced to be like this by her relatives. ”
Qu Xiaoqi sneered, took out four taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the uncle, and the aunt who saw the money didn't embarrass Qu Xiaoqi anymore, but she didn't have a smiling face.
Qu Xiaoqi thought that after that, let the uncle have less contact with the aunt's maiden family, maybe this pampered aunt can still raise her temperament back.
However, the family was ruined like this, Qu Xiaoqi could not let go of the perpetrator so easily, a pair of eyes stared at the eldest aunt tightly, and the eldest aunt was a little uncomfortable.
