Chapter Twenty-Seven: Lanhua's Mother's Cooking
Ma Qionghua said: "Eldest sister, this is not a problem, I have an electric car for your mother, how good it is for your mother to drive an electric car to work every day." My electric car is a four-wheeled electric car, not a two-wheeled electric car, it is safe and fast for the elderly, not afraid of wind and rain, especially winter is coming, your mother rides a bicycle in the wind and snow, it is not easy for your mother to provide for you, who makes us sisters, Lanhua, you are welcome, so decided. ”
At this time, Lanhua's mother brought the dishes, a plate of scrambled eggs with green onions, a plate of fried shredded potatoes, a plate of vinegared cabbage, and a plate of peanuts. The four of them sat down at the round table and began to eat.
Liu Shan peanuts are in the rich man's home, it can be said that he is the second generation of the rich, what a good dish, I have never eaten a famous dish, Ma Qionghua is also a family condition, she can eat whatever she wants, the two of them have no appetite at all when they look at the four dishes on the table, but when they think about the situation of Lanhua's family, they can't eat big fish and meat every day.
Lanhua and Zhang's mother both let Liu Shanhua and Ma Qionghua eat, and Zhang's mother also said: "You came in too much hurry, Lanhua said that you came back tomorrow, there is no refrigerator at home, and the vegetable market is also closed at this time, so I made four kinds of ready-made dishes at home, and you two girls will eat some." ”
Lanhua also said: "Second sister, third sister, you are used to eating big fish and meat every day, and it is delicious to taste the vinegared cabbage made by my mother." ”
Liu Shanhua couldn't put a piece of cabbage in her mouth, the sour, spicy and slightly sweet taste, it was too refreshing, so she quickly sandwiched another piece and put it in her mouth and ate it in a big gulp, and after eating, she poked Ma Qionghua with her hand and said: "Third sister, eat this vinegared cabbage, it's so delicious, it's better than what the chef in the restaurant makes." ”
Ma Qionghua looked at Liu Shanhua with suspicion, and then used chopsticks to clip a small piece of vinegared cabbage, put it in her mouth and gently took a small bite, just in her mouth, the sour, hot and slightly sweet fragrance immediately aroused Ma Qionghua's appetite, and then she sandwiched a large piece of cabbage, while eating, she said: "Lanhua, the vinegared cabbage made by your mother is so delicious, better than the Dongpo elbow I eat, come and change a big bowl of rice for me, I want to eat enough." ”
Zhang's mother smiled and said: "The two children love to eat, don't worry, there is still it in the pot, eat slowly, eat slowly, don't choke." ”
Liu Shanhua took another bite of shredded potatoes, nodded and said: "Auntie, your skills are not good cooks, your vinegared cabbage is first-class, this fried potato shredded is golden and bright in color, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, very delicious." ”
Ma Qionghua also took a big bite of fried shredded potatoes, and then raised two big female fingers and said, "Auntie, your shredded potatoes are a must, not only do they look good, but they also taste like they can't leave." ”
The two of them ate scrambled eggs and peanuts with green onions, the taste was delicious, the saltiness was moderate, the two people had a big appetite, and they were happier than eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, the chopsticks moved quickly on the plate, and they didn't raise their heads to eat, and the two girls ate Lan Hua and Lan Hua's mother were stunned, and they had to keep persuading their sisters to eat slowly.
Shanhua ate almost, then remembered a serious matter, put down the chopsticks and said: "Auntie, we have discussed with Lanhua to rent a house near the school, and our 5 sisters study together, so that we can not only help each other and improve learning, but also reduce the time to go to and from school, especially our Lanhua eldest sister walks to school every day, not only hard but also very dangerous, it is about to be winter, it is still dark early, Sister Lanhua is so beautiful, what if a beautiful girl walks on the street and encounters bad people?" I don't know, Auntie, have you thought about this? ”
Zhang's mother sighed and said after listening to Shanhua: "Shanhua, I haven't thought about this matter, but you don't know the situation of my family, since Lanhua saved an old lady in the rain and was blackmailed, my house has been lost, we have no way to move to such a remote place, because the house here is cheap, Lanhua in order to save the money to take the bus to walk to school every day, if you can really find a house near the school to live, Lanhua to go to school is much more convenient, My current salary is 3,500 yuan a month, excluding rent and daily expenses, I can't afford to rent a house near the school, where the housing prices will be very high, even if I share a house, I think the conditions of my house are difficult to afford. Your sisters' family is much better than Lanhua's, you can share a house together, Lanhua can walk to school by herself first. ”
Ma Qionghua was also full at this time, wiped her mouth and said: "It's delicious, it's too enjoyable, it's more fragrant than big fish and meat, Auntie, I listened to the two of you, you are also worried about Sister Lanhua, and you are willing to let Lanhua live near the school, but the economic conditions do not allow it, you don't have to think about this, Lanhua is our sworn sister, we swore on the day of our worship, we share blessings and difficulties." The conditions of several of our homes are okay, and we will pay for renting a house, as long as you agree. ”
Liu Shanhua also said: "The third sister is right, we are sisters who are closer than sisters, Lanhua's business is our business, find a house near the school and get the rent money, Auntie, you don't have to worry about it, everything will be handled by me, I will be able to find a good house in the next few days, and then Auntie, you and Sister Lanhua will pack up the things at home in the past two days and move over together, Auntie, you can still work in your factory, we saw your bicycle when we came in, it was too shabby, you can sell scrap, I have a four-wheeled electric car newly bought for you to use, you go to work and get off work to drive an electric car is fast and convenient, mainly not afraid of wind and rain, winter heavy snow. When you live with us, you take care of Lanhuawai, you have time to cook a delicious meal for us, your cooking skills are amazing, I can't eat enough, I look forward to the days when we live together, eat the meals you make for us every day, well, it's so fragrant, vegetarian dishes are more appetizing than meat dishes, it's really amazing. ”
Lanhua's mother shook her head after hearing this, and said: "Coral and Qionghua, you are all good children, you are still students and you don't earn any money, after all, I am an adult, and I still work to earn money, how can I let the children bear the rent and living expenses." For the sake of Lanhua's personal safety, I agree to move to a new house, and I will give you 2,000 yuan every month, which is regarded as rent and daily needs. ”
Ma Qionghua said: "Auntie, you see that you are outside, what are you doing so clearly, we and Lanhua are sworn sisters, you are also our elders, the conditions of your family are not as good as our families, you don't need to take the money, according to what the second sister said, you have time to cook us some dinner and supper, Lanhua is the best student in our class, our learning is not as good as her, we still need the help of Lanhua's eldest sister to study together, Auntie, you and Lanhua have skills, we pay for it, isn't it okay." ”
Lanhua knew the temper of her sisters, so she said to her mother: "Mom, these sisters of mine are good, hot-hearted, and helpful, Mom, if you come back at night and we are hungry, you can cook us something delicious, and I am responsible for helping my sisters study and let them all be admitted to college." ”
Lanhua's mother stopped talking after listening to Lanhua's words, and said after a while: "Okay, your sincerity touched me, and I don't object, I agree with your suggestion, what you want to eat, as long as Auntie can do it, I will make it for you every day to ensure your nutrition." ”
Shanhua listened to Lanhua's mother agree, and said happily: "Auntie, you are right to do this, I am so happy today, do you have any wine at home, let's celebrate and have a drink." ”
Lan Hua spread her hands and said helplessly: "Second sister, my mother and I don't drink, so there is no alcohol at home, otherwise, when we move to a new house, we will celebrate and drink a few more glasses." ”
Ma Qionghua also said: "Second sister, you just listen to the eldest sister, we use water as wine to toast to our new home!" ”
