Chapter 36: Master, Meng Lang

On the topic of marriage, Zheng Xiaohua always has endless words.

From the widower Wang Laosan in the next village who married a widow, to Liu Yufeng in the village who married a scoundrel, etc., everything can be said by Zheng Xiaohua with a nose and eyes, and there will be a summary at the end.

Probably a woman must find a good man to marry in this life, it doesn't matter if she is tired or tired, the main thing is that men will hurt people.

Lin Xiaohe inevitably wanted to praise his father and make Zheng Xiaohua laugh.

There are many things that Lin Xiaohe has heard many times, but when Zheng Xiaohua is narrating, she always listens carefully on the side, expresses her opinions from time to time, and pretends to hear about it for the first time.

Zheng Xiaohua is actually a woman with a hard life, at least in Lin Xiaohe's opinion, many women in this era have a hard life.

Although the status of women is not as low as that of Cheng Zhu Lixue's poisonous period, it is not necessarily high.

There are no entertainment projects in the countryside, Zheng Xiaohua has never seen the world, so she can only tell Lin Xiaohe these things that are hearsay and have nothing to pass the time.

So Lin Xiaohe was also happy to accompany her.

In the previous life, she was busy with work and neglected her parents until she died and came to this world.

She didn't want to leave behind the regret of wanting to raise her son and not waiting for her relatives.

"Mother, there is a lot of meat sent by this cold che, do you think we can marinate it and make bacon? In this way, I am not afraid that it will spoil, and I can eat it for a long time. ”

"Bacon? What kind of approach is that? ”

Zheng Xiaohua was a little dazed, she knew the cured meat, but she had never heard of this smoked meat.

However, she now has an inexplicable trust in her daughter's cooking skills, and the previous pickled tuk xian, now looking back, can still recall the deliciousness that fills the taste buds.

The one from the Arita family next door can often eat meat, but after eating the dishes made by his daughter, he is also full of praise.

She believes that all this comes from the teachings of Grandpa Mountain God.

"Huh? Your Aunt Li said that each family has 20 catties of rice and 5 catties of pork. We have at least 50 catties of rice in our house, and I'm afraid there are 20 catties of pork, right? ”

Zheng Xiaohua found out that there seemed to be a lot more things in her house than Aunt Li said.

Lin Xiaohe understood what was going on, but she didn't explain, she smiled: "It may be that our family is the last one, it is estimated that it is the left, and his family is not short of this thing, and it will not look good to bring it back, so it was sent to our house in one go." ”

Zheng Xiaohua listened to this explanation and thought it was true: "Oh, then we have taken a big advantage." It's just that this kid is not easy, and we can't take other people's things for nothing, Hehe, what do you think we will take as a gift? ”

"A return gift? There's no need for that, is it? Lin Xiaohe didn't care, and responded casually.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Xiaohua became rare and serious: "He, this mother is going to talk about you." What others give us is originally love. Let's return the gift is also love. We can't control other people's homes, but my mother wants to tell you that this is the rule.

Otherwise, you will get used to reaching out and taking things given by others for granted, which is very wrong.

We are poor, but because of this, we must know the truth of being a human being. ”

Zheng Xiaohua has never read a book, but these words are extremely neat, which is not a big reason, but it is the wisdom of her life and her duty to be a person.

Lin Xiaohe rarely saw her so serious, and she was a little moved for a while.

She knew that Zheng Xiaohua was teaching her how to behave, although she might know a lot more than this village woman, but she still enjoyed the process.

Lin Xiaohe nodded seriously: "I'm sorry mother, I was wrong, I won't be in the future." As for the return gift, I'll think about it.

He is not short of money, no matter what he sends, I'm afraid he won't be able to look down on him.

When I catch up with tomorrow, I will go up to the mountains to pick some mountain goods as a return gift.

He may not have seen and eaten anything that is not uncommon to us. It's really not good, my daughter made him a table of dishes by herself, which is more or less a heart. ”

Hearing her daughter's apology, Zheng Xiaohua was a little embarrassed, she touched Lin Xiaohe's head lovingly, the injury on her head was not healed, and she looked distressed.

"He'er, don't blame your mother for being harsh. People live for a lifetime, and they have to have some persistence in their hearts. This is the duty of a person, and if a person loses his duty, he may do many wrong things. Mother doesn't want you to go crooked in the future. ”

Lin Xiaohe nodded solemnly: "I know Mother, I think what you said is very good, I remember." ”

Zheng Xiaohua is very pleased, her daughter is undoubtedly her pride, sensible and reasonable, and she has read books and has a lot of knowledge in her head.

She didn't know what she could teach her, but Zheng Xiaohua still hoped to be able to teach her daughter by herself.

Fortunately, her daughter is still willing to listen to herself, and this alone makes her very happy.

"The meat sent by Han Che is really good, fat and thin, it is the best pork belly, and it is just right to make braised pork."

Lin Xiaohe changed the topic, and sure enough, Zheng Xiaohua's attention was shifted to pork.

Looking at such a large piece of pork, even Zheng Xiaohua felt rare, even if it was the best time for their big house, they couldn't eat meat all at once.

Especially those fat meats, it makes people drool when they look at it.

In this era, there was no technology for vegetable oil extraction, and the oil was all animal fat. So oil is a very expensive thing.

Stir-frying with more oil is simply a luxury.

Therefore, people lack oil and water, and this fat meat is much more expensive than lean meat.

Fatty meat can be squeezed for oil, and lard residue is even more delicious.

"He'er, what are the braised pork you are talking about, is it delicious?"

Seeing Zheng Xiaohua's expectant eyes, Lin Xiaohe smiled: "That's natural, anyway, there is a lot of meat, today my father and Uncle Li went to promote crutches, and I just called Aunt Li and them when I turned around, I will make some and give everyone a taste." ”

Zheng Xiaohua nodded, very satisfied with her daughter's approach, her daughter is a person who knows gratitude.

"Okay, I'll go and greet your Aunt Li and ask her not to make lunch."

Lin Xiaohe answered, watched Zheng Xiaohua go out, and then got busy.

Compared with Lin Xiaohe's busyness, Han Che was sitting in the courtyard of the new house.

In just one morning, his name was already known to everyone, but Hanche was not happy.

He sat in his chair and looked up at the sky, his face gray and dusty.

Lin Zhong stood on the side, watching, hesitating whether to speak first, coming back from Lin Xiaohe's house, the uncle of his own family has always maintained the posture of looking up at the sky, and has not moved.

"Lin Zhong, do you think I did something wrong to make her unhappy?"

The voice was low and seemed to have lost all vitality.

Lin Zhongxia sighed, shook his head, and suddenly realized that Han Che couldn't see his movements, so he spoke: "Ye didn't do anything wrong, to be honest, Ye has done a very thoughtful job." I think the reason why Miss Xiaohe is angry is because Ye Meng Lang scared her. ”
