Chapter 011: Nothing is more delicious than dumplings
The eldest brother and the mother didn't know that when the two of them went out to play, the dog was very embarrassed in front of them, spit the candy on the ground, stepped on it, and said it with disdain. "Zhao Erya, Zhao Xiaosan'er, you don't have to eat the things I ate and threw on the ground. Phew, what kind of play, a foreigner, still in our village, can't even afford a piece of candy, and he's a fart. ”
Every time, when he was despised by the children of the village, he wondered if one day they would be able to proudly show the sugar in front of these people, telling them that they would not be able to reach the rest of the food. However, this day...... How long.
But today is different, my sister-in-law took them to eat sugar and bought so much grain.
And this is just a few animal skins in exchange.
"Alright, take all these candy cubes. Isn't it just a few pieces of candy, look at your stingy Bala and you are about to cry, our little third child is a person with big ambitions, and I won't be like this in the future. ”
Xiao San'er's dark eyes flashed with tears, and he nodded with a smirk.
"Sister-in-law, I know, in the future, we will have a temperance."
Li Hongmei was stunned. The word "festival" is a sentence that she once taught San'er after she came to this family. I never thought that now I was picked up and used by this kid.
"Okay, Xiao San'er also knows how to do it. Yes, our Zhao family just has to be disciplined. Let's go, let's go home, my sister-in-law will make something to eat for you tonight. ”
This sister-in-law has the strength, but it's really not good to cook or something.
As for the mother-in-law, her eyes are half blind, an old man with glaucoma, do you still expect her to make delicious food?
If she can wash the vegetables, she will be Amitabha.
The family excitedly walked home.
When passing through the part of the road in the village, many people were surprised when they saw the grain that Er Ya'er was carrying.
"Sister-in-law, I have candy too."
Xiao San'er was very nervous, and deliberately sucked the candy in his mouth as loud as a mountain.
Li Hongmei was like a proud rooster, raising her head and chest, "Isn't it just a piece of sugar, sister-in-law will buy it for you next time." "That voice was so loud that it soured the ears of many people.
A group of villagers listened to this and looked at these people, and they were all blinded. That woman who walks like a rooster is Zhao Dashan's newly bought daughter-in-law? So awesome? So awesome! Really cow!
The dogs in the village, listening to San'er's words, their teeth were sore.
Damn, he really wants to eat candy, doesn't he? In fact, he hadn't eaten candy in a long time.
was sent home by the envious eyes of a village, and the sister-in-law was as proud as if she had won the battle.
Before she got home, she saw the woman standing under the big tree in front of the door from a distance, and Li Hongmei's footsteps couldn't help but slow down.
Erya and Xiao San'er also slowed down.
Immediately, San'er strode towards Zhao's mother with a bag of food.
"Mother, mother, my sister-in-law bought me candy to eat, and there is a lot of food, just like when my brother went to the market, I got a lot more. Oh, there are still some uses, this piece, mother, you eat. ”
Mother Zhao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, with a happy smile on her face, leaned over, and talked about the sugar cubes that San'er carefully fed to her mouth. "Mother, isn't it particularly sweet?"
"Well, it's sweet, your sister-in-law is really capable. San'er, remember, this is the candy that my sister-in-law gave you. ”
"Well, I remember." San'er nodded vigorously and stuffed the candy into Zhao's mother's hand again.
"No, my mother's teeth are not good, just taste the sweetness. These, for our three sons and sisters-in-law to eat. ”
"Hee-hee, okay, I'll listen to what you said."
Looking at this warm scene, Li Hongmei's nose turned pantothenic again.
That woman was her mother-in-law, and although she couldn't see it, she had the most tender eyes in the world. That lively, filial and lovely child is her brother-in-law. Although stubborn, he knows how to be filial. The beautiful girl of Hercules next to her is her sister-in-law Li Hongmei. Not to mention the beauty of the person, the strength is also great.
Suddenly, I felt that such a home was really ...... It's really good.
"Mother, we're back!"
Naturally, Li Hongmei also shouted with Erya and Xiao San'er.
Mother Zhao was very happy, laughing, and raised her hand in the air, as if she wanted to catch her. "Okay, just come back. Let's go, go into the house, it's been hard today, eat early and rest in a while. ”
Li Hongmei took a few steps forward and held her arm affectionately, and the remnant sun reflected on the two of them, dragging out a long shadow. Intimacy, harmony.
"Mother, I'm not tired today, everything, it's all carried back by Erya'er, she's really amazing. A man carried 200 catties of grain and ran back on the ground. I carried a small pocket, and I couldn't stop catching her up. Mother, why do you think our second girl is so powerful? Did she follow our father? ”
Mother Zhao smiled and patted her hand, turning her head sideways, "She, it's with her father." Not only her, but also the boss followed her father. How you feel now, my mother can understand best. When I married my child's father, he could lift a pig with one hand. Oh mom, you don't know, I didn't dare to squeak when I looked scared for a long time. Afterwards, he suspected that he was a strong ghost. That's it, I've been laughed at by the child's father for a while. Hehe......"
Xiao Erya and San'er listened to the conversation between the two, carried things, and returned home together in the afterglow of the sunset. On the branches, the birds are chirping, and in the fields, the fragrance of flowers is charming.
After arriving home, Li Hongmei washed her hands diligently and made noodles, and on this day, she promised Erya'er to cook a good meal.
If you want to say that this is food, in fact, Li Hongmei doesn't know what to do.
But she knows one thing, it's not as delicious as dumplings.
Looking at the extent to which this family cooks and cooks and eats when cooked, Li Hongmei believes that dumplings for a while may make them like them.
"Sister-in-law, you're making noodles and kneading them, what are you going to do? When our father was still alive, we also bought this kind of fine noodles, and mixed them to make some pimple soup, which felt quite delicious. Sister-in-law, you won't do this kind of food, will you? ”
After Xiao Erniu'er came back, she just took a short break and followed San'er to watch her cook.
Although Mother Zhao couldn't see it, she also sat happily on the side, listening to these little words and doing things.
"Noodle soup, it's delicious, but today my sister-in-law plans to make dumplings for you to eat. Didn't my sister-in-law promise you, when you come back, you will make delicious food, just right, I bought noodles today, let's make dumplings. ”
As she spoke, Li Hongmei began to knead the dough.
The second girl saw that she was struggling to knead, so she took the initiative to roll up her sleeves and stepped forward.
"Sister-in-law, let's do this kind of hard work."
Li Hongmei was quite embarrassed, "This, let's do it myself, I said that I came to make food." How bad it would be for you to help knead the dough again. ”
Zhao Mule answered happily, "Nan, you just let Erya reconcile." This child is also not a small child, and she will have to find her in-laws in the future, if you don't let her learn to do some stove work, she will marry in the future, and she may not suffer a loss. ”
The second girl sighed, "Mother, people don't marry, I said I won't marry." I'll guard you and my brother for the rest of my life. And my sister-in-law, hee-hee. ”
After speaking, she hung her head shyly and took the initiative to snatch the dough from Li Hongmei's hand.
"Sister-in-law, you say how to rub it, I will do it. It's not very skillful, but it's a hard job, and I'm definitely not a problem. ”
Seeing that she kneaded the noodles like mud, Li Hongmei no longer stopped her.
"Okay, you knead it, you stop when I tell you to stop, I'll chop the meat now." By the way, San'er, do we have leeks or cabbage at home? ”
"Ahh Leeks, this is there, how much does my sister-in-law want, I'll cut it. Xiao San'er was staring at him, and when he heard that he wanted leeks, although he didn't know what was going on, he was still very active in his work.
"Then, you just go and cut so much." Li Hongmei made a casual gesture, and Xiao San'er had to go to cut vegetables happily.
Mother Zhao took the initiative to come to the stove, "I'll burn the fire, don't look at my eyes are not too good, but this fire can still burn." ”
Mother Zhao's eyes are not completely invisible, she is her eyes, blurry.
It's not too clear to see anything. In modern times, this eye disease is still easy to treat. However, in this ancient period, it is said that if you don't have a few tens or hundreds of taels of silver, it is estimated that it will not be cured.
"Mother, one day, when we have money, we will also cure your eyes. When the time comes, you will be able to see the outside world normally. ”
Li Hongmei chose garlic and wild chives. The chives were picked casually on the way back from the chives.
These things have not been developed so far. There are no ready-made chives at home, so Li Hongmei thought about replacing them with this thing.
Mother Zhao smiled indifferently, "No need, my mother can do things for you like this." I heard that it costs money to treat eyes, and when the child's father was alive, he also said that he would save money for me to see my eyes, but unfortunately, that happened later. How can you say that a person with so much strength was bitten by a wild beast? At that time, I heard that the knife was still stuck in his back. If it weren't for that knife, I guess I wouldn't have been gnawed by the beast. ”
"You say, when our father died, there was still a knife wound?" Li Hongmei's movements stopped, and she intuitively felt that something seemed to be wrong.
"yes, I heard that there were several knife wounds, and I don't know how I got them. Alas, if you want to say that it is the enemy, this is not very possible. After all, our old man is gone. ”
Li Hongmei was silent, this kind of thing is hard to say.
To assert that it was a vendetta or murder without basis only adds to the old man's heart.
After a while, San'er cut the leeks back.
"Sister-in-law, is this rubbed ready?"
The second girl put the dough on the tips of her fingers and whirled. Looking at this little leather monkey, Li Hongmeile.
"Alright, alright, almost. I'll teach you how to make dumplings in a while, and I can tell you, these dumplings are so delicious that your tongue has to swallow them. ”
"Really?"
Several people watched with amazement, and Zhao's mother smiled and lit the fire.
In my heart, I secretly sighed: This daughter-in-law seems to be able to keep it. It's good to see her integrate into this family so quickly.
The meat filling was taken over by Xiao Erya again. This girl picked up the knife and smashed it with a bang, and there was a loud sound. The frightened Li Hongmei hurriedly stopped, "I said Er Niu'er, although this vegetable mound is also thick, we can't stand your way of chopping." We're eating minced meat, let's not eat that vegetable dregs, you light, light, listen to my instructions, lighter......"
