When Wen Wan yawned and got up, the futon next to her was already empty. She dressed, neatly coiled her hair around the hairpin, and pushed open the papier-mâché window to let in the bright sunshine. It was another sunny day with a gentle breeze, and she stretched.

Biting off a willow branch dipped in green salt, brushing her teeth and washing, she rolled up her sleeves to reveal her white and delicate arms and began to work: laundry, sweeping the floor, drying bedding, wiping the table...... Soon, the small farmhouse courtyard became neat and bright in her busy figure.

After finishing the housework, I saw that there were still two barrel bones in the kitchen that I bought back from the last time I went to town. Wen Wan took it out again and cleaned it, sat on the chair and prepared to chop it little by little and boil the bone broth to drink.

The courtyard door was opened with a "squeak", and it was Lin Yuan who came back with dew all over his body. He held two dusty steamed buns in his hand and handed them to Wen Wan, and smiled at her excitedly, "On the way back, I met Grandma Li, I heard that you were very happy, I am very happy, Fei Sai gave me two gray-faced steamed buns!" ”

When Wen Wan took it, he took the machete at her feet and chopped the bones quickly and steadily. She picked up a steamed bun and took two bites, and then sent the other one to Lin Yuan's mouth, staring at him with deer-like eyes. Lin Yuan knew that he couldn't resist her, so he had to open his mouth and swallow it in two bites. After a busy morning, he was hungry!

"I went to the village chief to say hello, and after a while, I will build a house for our family when I have all the manpower!" Lin Yuan said coldly.

Wen Wan bit the steamed bun and looked at him blankly, obviously the house was about to be opened, how could he build the house?

Lin Yuan looked at her stupid appearance, but he still couldn't help but reach out and pinch, "Since you know how to build a house, you have to build a room and come out to see it decently, don't you say?" ”

Wen Wan nodded blankly, her brain was still a little dizzy, "Where's the silver?" ”

"I owe it first, and then I will pay them at the end of the year. There is Achuan Zhang Luo, so you don't have to bother. Lin Yuan's old god was there, and his face looked energetic and radiant because of his livelihood.

Build a house....... It's okay, otherwise they won't be able to survive the freeze with the current thatched hut that leaks wind and rain.

When the bones were all chopped and Wen Wan began to blanch the bones under the water, Lin Yuan went to the field barefoot with the hoe again. Wen Wan and the others walked away, went to pick up some green onions and ginger planted behind the house, and put them in a clay pot with the scooped bones and began to simmer.

At this time, the pigs were fed by hard work of every household, the oil was meaty and fragrant, and simple cooking could cook a good taste. Wait for the milky white soup to open the lid of the pot, and then you can put the salt and radish down to taste. Another bone, Wen Wan chose braised braised bones. Sweet and sour is not good, sugar and vinegar here are expensive and cannot be bought, and women are afraid of being scolded by their in-laws and men.

Put hot oil in the pot, add green onions, ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, add the washed pork ribs and fry until golden brown and slightly charred, heat the water and submerge the ribs to give some bay leaves. Then give some Huadiao for hospitality, soy sauce, and secretly put some brown sugar bought for yourself to replenish your body, simmer on low heat for half an hour, add more firewood to turn to high heat to collect the juice.

I don't know if it's north and south, and rice and noodles are all eaten here. The rice is generally aged rice from previous years, and there are all kinds of noodles. The staple of this meal is to paste some mixed noodles and cakes into the pot, next to the pork ribs, which can not only get the soup but also absorb the aroma, as well as the aroma of the mixed noodles themselves. Lin Yuan's body is like this, ten cakes and one pot of soup is no problem.

Speak of the devil. Like a cat smelling fishy, as soon as the cake was steamed, Lin Yuan returned with a hoe. In the courtyard, I hurriedly washed my muddy hands, and hurried into the kitchen in three steps and two steps.

"What's good? So fragrant! He stretched out the ribs and drilled into the pot, quickly passed through the fierce white steam with one hand, pinched a piece of braised pork ribs, blew two breaths, and sent it to his mouth.

Wen Wan saw that he was so hot that he grinned, and he was reluctant to vomit when he was running around the house, so he swallowed it with a red face for a long time and couldn't help but chuckle. He took out a small bowl and picked up a few ribs and a cake for him to eat slowly, while he took a cloth towel to serve the pork rib soup stewed on the stove on the other side.

As soon as the lid of the pot was lifted, the thick scent of bones came to the surface. The milky white soup inside absorbs the sweetness of the radish, and the oil flowers are floating in the oil, which looks very attractive. Lin Yuan ate the bowl and looked at the pot, swallowing his saliva so greedily.

Wen Wan glanced at him, squeezed him away, and took another crockpot and divided most of it for him, "Go and send it to the old house, the children can grow up after eating." Come back quickly, I'll wait for you to eat! ”

Originally, there wasn't much soup, and adding him to a big man was not enough!

Lin Yuan smiled, "You have a lot of care, why don't I know how to eat bones and grow taller?" ”

After speaking, in the end, he took the clay pot and went happily with the last piece of pork ribs in his mouth, and his mother-in-law was filial and courteous, and his face was bright.

When I arrived at the old house, just in time for the meal, a room of large and small people was "purring" with white porridge. Lin Liu was frowning at the white porridge, and saw the little uncle enter the door with a clay pot, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the clay pot and put it on the table.

"Dad, Wanniang stewed bone broth for me to send, saying that it was for your second elder to make up for it." Lin Yuan stood at the table and asked for credit.

"Well, your daughter-in-law is a good one. Have you eaten it? Eat some? Father Lin was talking to his son, but the crockpot was uncovered, and the rich fragrance wafted all over the room, and even he couldn't help but sniffle.

"I've eaten, and I'll go back." Lin Yuan sat down slightly and told his father about preparing to build a house.

The two children in the big house had already cheered, and they stirred up the crockpot with chopsticks. Waiting for Lin Liu to help scoop the bones into their bowls, he hurriedly grabbed the bones and gnawed them. The delicious bone marrow sucks out and slides into the throat, and the stewed soft meat can be eaten with a gentle sip, and the milky white but sweet and delicious soup is so delicious that you can swallow your tongue.

"Delicious, delicious! The soup cooked by my aunt tastes better than that cooked by my mother! The two children screamed without eyes, which made Lin Liu's appetite fall off.

"Well, the sixth daughter-in-law's craftsmanship is good." Lin Yuan's mother couldn't help but praise after tasting it, and Lin Liu's face turned even darker.

"Brother and sister can run the house and cook, you are blessed" Boss Lin couldn't help but envy while drinking the soup, alas, it is strange to say that people are more popular than dead people, his daughter-in-law and sixth daughter-in-law are simply one in the sky and one in the ground.

Lin Liu finally couldn't help but throw chopsticks, "Eat, eat, eat!" Hungry ghosts reincarnated, you? If you don't have a conscience, you'll get rid of all this idea! ”

The obvious finger Sang scolding Huai and the broken bowl that fell under the table made the second elder frown and look at Da'er, is this going to be troublesome again?

"Just say a few words!" Boss Lin wants to calm things down.

Unexpectedly, the mother-in-law didn't give face, so she pulled her sleeves from his hand and crossed her waist and scolded loudly, "They are all daughters-in-law, she is pregnant, she eats and drinks and waits; When I'm pregnant, I have to work in the fields, nesting cabbage! They are all relatives and children, and the big ones have to get up early and be greedy to feed the family, and the small ones can not pay a penny and stick it upside down! ”

Tears rolled down her eyes, "It's okay now, the eldest family is still patched, and the children are subsidized enough to build a house, and they are not afraid of people poking the backbone of the old Lin family when it spreads!" Is it a loss? ”

These two old immortals looked at their big house and the family were fools! Without their subsidy, can the poor ghost of the sixth child build a house?

The sharp words were like knives, cutting at the second elder's heart one by one, making Lin Yuan and his mother lower her head and wipe her tears silently.

Lin Yuan looked at his eldest brother with a disappointed face, "Big brother, you think so too?" ”

Boss Lin just didn't speak, obviously his mother-in-law's words spoke to his heart, making him irrefutable.

Lin Yuan's eyes were red, and he had mixed tastes.

Wen Wan didn't see Lin Yuan go home for a long time, and when she came to the old house, she saw such a scene of messy cups and plates, and the two children in the big room shrank in the corner tremblingly. The rest of the people let Lin Liu scream and scold, and their heads were lowered like quails. Only Lin Yuan clenched his fists, his eyes were red, and he was angry.

Wen Wan sighed, I have never seen a mother-in-law who can't tolerate a daughter-in-law, and I have never seen a mother-in-law who was scolded by her daughter-in-law! How many times has this been going on?

She pinched her arm and squeezed out two tears, and did not enter the house, but spread her sleeves at the door of the old house and began to howl, "I can't live!" This is to force people to death! ”

As soon as she opened her mouth, her tone was graceful and delicate, not like a shrew scolding the street, but like a danjiao singing. The neighbors who were resting at home at noon were attracted by her crying, and they all served bowls and hoes, and gathered around to watch the excitement.

"Oh my God! How can there be such a vicious sister-in-law, this is to force us to death! Folks, let's judge! She cried so much that her heart and intestines were broken, and the spearhead was pointed at Lin Liu. Everyone in the old house was also stunned, and they were stunned with their chins open.

"At the time of the separation, because I had to serve my in-laws, the house was given to the old family, the grain was given to the old family, and the silver was also given to the old family. We only have one acre of thin fields, and a few bags of rice and grain have to be said by her that our family has received subsidies from the second elder, and our family Ayuan is lenient and enduring. She choked up with grievances, causing her mother-in-law to shed tears in the house.

God knows, the two of them didn't ask for a penny! I haven't made up a penny for children! They have been poor all their lives, but they treat their children and grandchildren the same as at the tip of their hearts!

"We can not care about these, I only bought a round of flesh and bones to replenish my body when I had a body, and I was reluctant to eat and stew it and sent it to the old house, but I was also knocked over by others to find a reason for it, and I actually said that I ate too well! people! I'm not afraid of retribution, so I pulled out my tongue! She explained the matter clearly with a crying voice, so that the villagers couldn't help but point fingers.

Lin Yuan wanted to come over to help her, but she suddenly stared at her and stood beside her in a daze. Lin Liu was so angry that he rushed out of the house with a red face and teeth and claws, and was about to tear the slut's sharp mouth, but Lin Yuan tripped over his outstretched foot and fell hard.

Seeing this, Wen Wan spread out on the ground to protect her stomach and cried, "Sister-in-law, spare me!" Please be merciful and stop scolding at your in-laws! They really didn't favor us! Please, don't hurt my child! Oh my God, open your eyes and see, and chop those unfilial beasts to death! ”

The accusations forced Lin Liu's to not move, and the people in the village pitied Lin Yuan and his wife even more, alas, this eldest daughter-in-law is fierce and fierce They know it, how can they be so arrogant?

"Everyone knows that all the money we built is borrowed money. But you don't know, all the money earned by our in-laws is in the hands of my sister-in-law! No matter how difficult it is for the two of us, the eldest brother and sister-in-law don't even borrow one! Even her mother-in-law secretly gave us an egg, and she had to scold the chicken and the dog for a long time! Folks, whose rules are these? ”

They knew that everyone who took over Lin Yuan's work was paid off on credit at the end of the year. This stabbed the hornet's nest, and the villagers have already whispered and scolded "unfilial piety", "incorruptible and shameful" and "pork is not as good", and the filial piety is even more spit on Lin Liu's family, only to hide the face of the two people in the big house and drill straight into the room.

Lin Yuan had never seen such a graceful girl, although it was spicy, it was very relieving! He pulled her up with a red face, and bowed his hand to the villagers, "Let the uncles and aunts laugh, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and they are all scattered!" ”

After speaking, he lowered his head and pulled Wen Wan to walk home quickly, without saying a word all the way.

Wen Wan was a little apprehensive when she saw him like this: "Are you angry?" ”

He lowered his head and his eyes were slightly red, "He wasn't like this before, he never let me when I was a child, and I was close to everything delicious." ”

He really couldn't figure it out, how did the honest big brother become like this? It's just a matter of making a fuss with my daughter-in-law, and I can't figure it out myself!

Of course, she knew who he was talking about, and she took his hand, "Because he has grown up, married a wife and had children, and he has his own small family, he has to think about his wife and children first." ”
