Chapter 38 Labor Changes
Chrysanthemum thought about what she saw in her previous life, and said that she wanted to have a day of restlessness - a treat; If you want to be restless for a year - build a house; If you want to be restless for the rest of your life - marry a daughter-in-law!
Although the last sentence is a bit harsh, the first two sentences still make sense. Thanks to the fact that her family has recently started selling vegetables, and has bought a lot of guys, otherwise, I don't know what to use for these dishes tonight.
Yang walked in and asked, "Pig water in a casserole and eat it hot on the stove?" β
Chrysanthemum said: "Hey! It's a hassle-free! Otherwise, a bowl will be served, and a few chopsticks will be gone, and it will be served again; Fill a casserole first, and pour it directly into the casserole later. β
Yang Shi hurriedly asked Shi Niang to carry the stove, held the casserole by herself, and went to the hall together.
Chrysanthemum thought about it, and felt that these people were afraid that they were going to drink, so she picked up some of the pots and put them into a small and delicate bamboo basket, so that they could chew on the soup from the pig's water.
The hall began to eat in a noisy manner, and Chrysanthemum, Yang, and Shi Niang ate in the kitchen, and had kept some of the various dishes before.
Xiao Shi also ran into the kitchen, saying that it was too noisy in the hall and that he was going to eat here. Naturally, the dog came along.
Shi Niang smiled: "Eat well here!" There's a cauldron full of pigs in the water, and you can eat as you like. The province is robbed at the table with others, and it is annoying! β
The little stone and the dog were overjoyed, and they felt very sure when they looked at the steaming cauldron.
Chrysanthemum looked at their greed and smiled, "How big can you have?" I can't eat a little bit to be full, but I still like to protect food! You can't eat too much at night, and it's hard to sleep if you eat too much. You eat less stones, I'll let you take some away when you go back, and eat slowly tomorrow. β
Goudan asked timidly, "Sister Chrysanthemum, can I bring some back?" He still remembered the scene when Chrysanthemum was at the end of the village that day, so he still had some fear of her in his heart.
Chrysanthemum glanced at him, and when she saw his timid appearance, she was very unhappy, and secretly thought that I was so terrible? Think about your face, I'm afraid that the little baby can really cry when she sees it, so don't worry about him!
"Okay, I'll pretend to put you on too. Don't hold on, just eat your fill! β
"Whoa!" The dog nodded again and again!
Shi Niang and Yang couldn't help but smile when they looked at them.
After eating for a while, Yang got up and filled two bowls of pigs into the water, saying that they had probably eaten about the same amount in the hall, and that they would add some more.
The chrysanthemum was just finished eating, so he said, "I'll send it!" Mother, you eat. "She was going to see Mr. Aoki.
Yang saw that she was not afraid, so he handed it over to her and sent it.
It was already dark outside, and Chrysanthemum came to the hall and lit two oil lamps inside. In the dim light, the old table was full of people sitting on all sides, men chatting and laughing, eating and drinking, and the casserole on the stove was steaming, and puffs of green smoke swirled and circled, lining the reddened cheeks of the people.
Although Zheng Changhe did not serve the table, he leaned on Aoki's bed and looked at the lively scene in front of him with a smile!
Zhang Yang first saw the chrysanthemum: "Sister Chrysanthemum, have you eaten it?" β
The conversation and laughter stopped abruptly, and everyone turned back to look at the chrysanthemum.
Zhou Xiucai looked at the ugly girl standing in the candlelight, and said in his heart, this is Aoki's sister? I had heard that her face was hurt, and it was really ugly. It's a pity that a good girl, look at those eyes, they are as deep and clear as a lake!
Chrysanthemum's gaze slid past everyone's faces, fell on Zhou Xiucai's face, stared at it for a moment, immediately moved away, and said softly: "I'll add some dishes." Eat it, for there are many miles in the pot! β
As he spoke, he stepped forward and stood beside Aoki and handed him the bowl.
Aoki hurriedly took it and poured it into the casserole on the stove, and carefully looked at his sister's face, and saw that she had no fear of inferiority, so he relieved himself.
Zhao San laughed and said: "Chrysanthemum, you always burn these delicious foods, so that the third uncle wants to come to your house for dinner if he is fine, what should I do?" My stone always mutters when he eats at home, saying that his mother's cooking is not delicious, and it is not as delicious as Sister Chrysanthemum. was so angry that his mother said that she would sell him to Brother Changhe as a son, and in the future, she would eat the dishes cooked by Sister Chrysanthemum. He didn't dare to squeak. β
The crowd burst out laughing.
Qin Feng also smiled: "It's not! Don't say it's a small stone, it's me, I can't put it down after eating a dish made of chrysanthemums once. So, as soon as you call me today, I'll hurry here, for fear I'm going to run slowly. There are still medicinal herbs in the yard confiscated! β
Everyone couldn't laugh even more!
Li Changxing said with a smile: "Chrysanthemum, I don't care about anything else, if I get an old turtle or a turtle or a yellow eel or something, I'll bring it to your house to burn, and rub the rice by the way, okay?" β
Chrysanthemum thought to herself, that feeling is good, I can't ask for it!
She chuckled, "Okay! β
Laixi said to Chrysanthemum: "Sister Chrysanthemum! Here, sit down and eat some more! This pig's trotters and pig's tail taste very good, and Ming'er must be selling well! β
Zhang Yang chewed the pig's large intestine in his mouth, and wanted to speak for a long time, but after looking at the indifferent Zhou Fuzi, he endured the words, swallowed the large intestine in his mouth in three or two times, and touched his mouth clean, before he opened his mouth and asked Chrysanthemum: "Sister Chrysanthemum, why did you burn this stinky thing so fragrant?" The pig's trotters are also delicious! β
Chrysanthemum smiled: "It won't stink when you wash it!" β
At this time, Master Zhou twisted his beard and chuckled: "'The ancients said: you don't get tired of eating, you don't get tired of fine', your dish is cooked very finely, and it can be seen that you have put a lot of effort into it." The village is going to find me someone to cook and clean, and I will be happy if she has you as good as her. β
Chrysanthemum's heart moved, looked at him quietly, and said softly: "If the master doesn't dislike it, then I will cook and clean up for the master." I don't want to be paid, but the Master only needs to be free from my brother's bondage. β
Aoki exclaimed, "Chrysanthemum, where can you be busy?" What should I do when I turn around and get tired? He couldn't help but have red eyes - isn't this a sister taking care of herself?
Zheng Changhe also said distressedly: "It's still so far away from the village school, how can you run around every day?" Your brother's shackles don't cost much. When Dad's leg is healed, he can go to sell vegetables, and the family will be fine. β
Qin Feng looked at the skinny face under the light, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart, and then looked at the lake-like eyes, and felt more and more bottomless!
Zhang Huai came in from the chrysanthemum, and after glancing at her, he didn't dare to look at her again, but he always paid attention to her movements. Hearing her say this at this time, I felt a wave of jealousy in my heart for no reason - jealousy of Aoki!
Master Zhou also said regretfully: "I can't ask for it!" However, your family does live far away, and this back and forth will delay you a lot. β
Chrysanthemum smiled: "I don't have to go to the school to cook, just let my brother bring the food to the master every day, and bring the dishes and chopsticks back after school." Isn't it good that the place where the master lives doesn't even get smoke and fire? When I go there to cook, I cook at most one or two dishes for each meal, and I can't finish it even if I have more masters; I have a lot of family, so there must be more variety of dishes, and besides, my family has to cook vegetables to sell at the market every day, so that the master can taste all kinds of dishes. It's just laundry and cleaning, and it's good once every two or three days, so that it won't disturb the master's peace. β
Master Zhou smiled and nodded, and said appreciatively: "This idea is indeed good. It's up to your father and brother to agreeβI see that they love you very much! β
Chrysanthemum glanced at Aoki and said, "It's not that I'm doing any tiring work, I'm not the same as usual." Even if you get the clothes back, your mother can help wash them! β
Aoki saw that Chrysanthemum had made up his mind, and it was not easy to stop it, besides, this was working for the master, how could he resolutely say no!
Zhou Fuzi looked at the chrysanthemum, and saw that she spoke fluently, her expression was down-to-earth and generous, without the slightest embarrassment, and he was secretly surprised.
He smiled and asked, "You support your brother in studying like this, but you also want to study?" β
Chrysanthemum glanced at Aoki and smiled, "Brother has taught me!" β
Master Zhou suddenly became interested, and hurriedly said: "Oh, there is such a thing? No wonder Aoki is desperately asking questions in the school, it turns out that he has to be a master when he goes home! Then I will test you, and Zi said: 'Learn and learn from time to time, don't you also say?' Have friends come from afar, are you happy? People don't know and are not ashamed, aren't they also gentlemen? What do you mean? β
Chrysanthemum was stunned - this person is really a teaching idiot, why didn't he forget to inspect people's homework at the dinner table? But she is not his student, and besides, her ugly girl is famous enough, but she can't add the name of "talented girl", which is a big taboo!
So, she hurriedly bowed her head shyly, did not answer, and ran out in a hurry. provoked a burst of laughter in the back - this is what chrysanthemums should look like!
When the wine and food are full, the guests are gone, leaving behind the mess on the table, and the flickering lights together remind the hustle and bustle just now, and the air seems to be echoing with people's laughter, which does not make people feel that the feast is deserted!
Raiki and Aoki rolled up their sleeves and quickly cleaned up the mess.
The chrysanthemum was crooked beside Zheng Changhe, and he didn't bother to move at all. She was really tired today, and she had nothing to be polite with her brother and cousin, so she went with them.
Lai Xi looked at the chrysanthemum who was leaning against Zheng Changhe and said with a smile: "Sister Chrysanthemum, if you can't stand it, go to sleep." Cousin Aoki and I came to wash the dishes, you can rest assured, keep it clean. β
Zheng Changhe touched the head of the chrysanthemum with his hand, and said distressedly: "Flower, then you go to sleep first!" There's your mother on the stove looking at it! β
Chrysanthemum whispered sluggishly: "I won't sleep until I'm washed!" β
Zheng Changhe said: "Then go wash it!" β
Chrysanthemum thought to herself, isn't there someone in the kitchen! Let's take the basin to the room and wash it in the dark. She felt that she weighed a thousand pounds, so she couldn't care about it.
Fortunately, there is no need to boil the hot water.
Aoki and Yang also repeatedly destroyed her to wash and go to sleep, Aoki said: "You sleep first, I'll pour water later!" β
Chrysanthemum obediently responded, enjoyed her brother's love, and obediently went to sleep after washing. When tiredness accumulates to a certain extent, the body completely ignores the hardships of external conditions, whether it is in a hard bed or in a haystack, it can still fall asleep!
This is how Chrysanthemum fell into a dreamless sleep, so much so that the next morning, Yang and Laixi were gone, and she didn't wake up yet.
