178 Grandmother-in-law
Except for Gao Wenlin, who felt that Mr. Jia was not well-intentioned, the Gao family didn't think much about it, Gao Zhao asked Jia Xibei, and listened to her swear, so they thought that Mr. Jia was a comic, and no one knew what the comic would think and do, and it would not be surprising to do anything.
The next day, the Jiang family discussed with Gao Cui what to eat, saying that he was here to eat a big pot of vegetables, but it couldn't all be done by the countrymen, and it could be seen that Mrs. Jia was a rich and noble person, and it would be embarrassing if she thought the food was rough.
Gao Zhao remembered the steamed dishes made by her grandmother in her previous life, and her grandmother said that when she was young, the village held banquets, all of which were steamed vegetables, eight large bowls, with meatballs, one bowl of meat, similar to a lion's head, with buckle meat, vermicelli below, fried rice cakes, sugar on top, and vegetables, a total of eight, steamed in a pot together, and served hot out of the pot.
"Old Madam Jia, she hasn't eaten anything delicious, and she must not have eaten this. Why don't we just do this, and then think about what else can be made into steamed dishes, put them together and steam them, and also make up eight dishes and put them in a big bowl. ”
Gao Cui patted his thigh and said: "Yes, there are still dried beans at home, the braised pork and dried beans are stewed, and then steamed in the pot, it is absolutely soft, and older people must love to eat it." ”
"Soak the beans at this time, soak the beans softly, steam them with rice, and they are also steamed soft, and the older ones must love to eat them."
As soon as the aunt and nephew said that they should set the dishes, Jiang thought that these could be on the table?
Gao Zhao explained: "The rich and noble people from Beijing have never eaten anything delicious, so maybe it is rare for us to make it." ”
"Yes, that is, let us cook the dishes in the big restaurant, we won't, is it possible to make it outside? At that time, what should people say, saying that they would come to your house to eat, but they bought it outside to send it away, which is not good. ”
The Jiang family had never been in contact with the rich and noble, and she didn't have any ideas, so she let them go.
Mrs. Jia came before the meal, and Jia Xibei and Wu Changliang followed.
Jiang was surprised, Mrs. Jia explained: "I don't worry about my grandson, it's not good to be stuffy in the house, I have to come out to meet people, so I brought him today, just call you Shiniang, he is still young, Mrs. Gao treats him as a son, he came back to your house and made a fool, he is shy and embarrassed, let me say what is so embarrassing, like a family, let him follow me to serve me, Mrs. Gao don't care, my two families should be a good family, no one is polite." ”
Everyone said so, and the Jiang family can't say that I have an eldest daughter at home, it is inconvenient for him to come, and his family is not a big family, and his daughter is not the kind of lady who does not go out of the door, so she had to smile and said: "Don't dare to be it, I'm afraid that the old lady will not be used to coming to our small family." ”
"I'm not afraid to tell you, I used to feed sheep when I was a child. The situation at home is not good, there is no sleeping mattress, the day is just cold, spread hay, when it is cold, the kang is burned, reluctant to use firewood, the kang is cold before dawn, the days at that time are bitter, and now it is by relying on the children and grandchildren to fight for energy, in order to enjoy some blessings. ”
Jiang asked tentatively, "Mr. Jia is teaching in Beijing?" ”
"He, he was obedient when he was a child, but he became more and more crooked when he got old, but fortunately, he studied well since he was a child, mixed rice in Beijing, and the help of his family, which is not too embarrassing."
Mrs. Jia didn't tell the truth anyway, it was so ambiguous, Jiang heard the old man say that Mr. Jia was probably Professor Jia of Guozijian, and he made a mistake, and he came to Wucheng County to teach, and he was right to listen to what the old lady said.
"When my two sons came back, they all said that Mr. Jia was good at teaching, and maybe he would be able to return to Beijing after a while."
"I'm going back to Beijing, how can I stay here all the time." Old Madam Jia followed Jiang's words.
Jia Xibei and Wu Changliang were both standing behind the old lady, Jia Xibei was anxious to find Gao Zhao, and Wu Changliang was very interesting to listen to his grandmother's nonsense.
At this time, Gao Zhao came out of the kitchen, and it was Chunzhu who told her that there was a visitor at home, and she was helping her aunt in the kitchen with Xianglan.
When she entered the house, Wu Changliang also came, she was stunned, the foreign man entered the inner house?
"Grandma is here." Gao Zhao stepped forward and saluted.
"Oh, it's Sister Zhao, Grandma just wanted to ask where you went, Xibei urged me to come early in the morning, to play with Sister Zhao, it's really closer than the two sisters, it looks like a family, this is fate, when she returned to Beijing in the Mid-Autumn Festival, she told me Sister Zhao'er this Sister Zhao'er, I was curious, what kind of little lady can hook her soul away, I came to see it yesterday, really, look at it, like a virgin in the sky."
This exaggerated praise, the Jiang family was embarrassed, "Zhao'er is a leather monkey, Jia Niangzi is good, she looks good, her temperament is good, my eldest sister has said that whoever marries her in the future will be blessed, and later met the son of the Wang family, it is really a good match." ”
"In Beijing, she generally doesn't associate with anyone, and there are few people who can get into her eyes, and she is also spoiled by her father, so she comes with your sister Zhao, it's really fate."
Someone praised himself, the joy in his eyes was heartfelt, Gao Zhao naturally blossomed in his heart, and felt that Mrs. Jia had a really good eye, and she could see my advantages at a glance, how cute I am.
"Grandma, Sister Jia is not arrogant, although she is squeamish, but she has a good heart, she is just unfamiliar with people who love to talk, in fact, if you are familiar with her, you will know that she is a good person."
Gao Zhao also hurriedly praised Jia Xibei, when the old man was naturally willing to listen to others say that his family was good, Jia Xibei heard Gao Zhao say that she was squeamish, so he glared at her, Gao Zhao saw it, and said to Mrs. Jia with a smile: "Although I am younger than Sister Jia, I let her, Sister Jia is a guest from Beijing, naturally I want to let the guest." ”
Mrs. Jia naturally saw Jia Xibei's glaring, but she also knew that the two girls were funny, seeing that Gao Zhao was so good at talking, she remembered her grandson's mouth like a gourd with a sawed mouth, and she liked this Gao family lady even more, and looked at her grandson's expressionless face, as if she looked at the Gao family's eldest lady.
Mrs. Jia pretended to be casual and said: "Oh, it's not interesting for your little lady to accompany my old woman, Xibei, you and Sister Zhao go out to play, by the way, your grandfather said that there is a malt candy made on West Street that is the same as the one in my hometown, you buy some for your great-aunt and come back to taste, tsk, I haven't eaten it for decades." ”
Jia Xibei happily responded, Gao Zhao also bowed and retired, who knew that Mrs. Jia said again: "Xunsheng, you accompany your niece, the two little ladies are not safe on the road, call Wang Xiaoer together, go quickly, don't say it's not greedy, and drool when you say it." ”
Gao Zhao, who was about to walk out of the door, heard Mrs. Jia say this, and wanted to look back, but felt impolite, it was just these four people who went out, how could it be awkward, but the old man spoke, it was not easy to refuse, forget it, just go together, anyway, it is also dumb.
