"Okay!" Kou Xi pushed Huo An away, and pretended to be uncomfortable and straightened his hair and lowered his head: "I'm going to start getting busy!"

Looking at Kou Xi's escape, Huo An frowned in confusion. Kou Xi deliberately stayed next door for a long time, picking and choosing, cutting the things he needed, and then putting them in a basin and returning to his house.

When he walked to the door, Kou Xi saw that the bathtub had been moved under the window, and it was still covered with a plastic sheet and covered with a quilt. After entering the corridor, the water on the floor was wiped clean, Kou Xi put down the basin and walked into the house, and saw that Huo An had already taken out the quilt and rested.

Relieved, she closed the door and went back to the stove to fry something.

Fry the sweet potato pieces first, then fry the shrimp slices, radish tofu meatballs, and finally fry the hairtail fish in the pot. Kou Xire was covered in sweat, and pushed open the door to let the room breathe.

Huo Tianyi ran back and forth several times, and ate enough fried sweet potatoes, shrimp chips, and meatballs.

Over there, Gao Liman sent the mutton that was melted through, and looked at his son's oily little appearance with a smile: "You are really a naughty bag, you are all full!"

She craned her neck curiously to look in, and asked curiously, "What is the eldest brother doing?"

"Didn't you hear the snoring inside!" Kou Xi laughed, "How tired are you, and you still want to help me work." ”

"What can a man do in the kitchen!" Gao Liman immediately waved his hand in agreement: "Tianyi's father is too, he has to help me work." I hated him for being clumsy and drove him out to play mahjong. ”

"Sister-in-law!" Gao Liman patted Huo Tianyi on the head and asked him to take a small bowl of sweet potatoes, meatballs, and shrimp chips to send to his daughter.

Seeing her son leave the house, she couldn't help but lower her voice: "Tomorrow, when the eldest sister comes back, how much money are you going to give the child?"

Kou Xi cut the leg of mutton quite neatly with his knife, and said disappreciably: "How much money can I give, the same as your family Tianyi, five yuan per person!"

"Oh, give so much, I still think about what it means to give two dollars!" Gao Liman bit his lip and looked like he was in pain.

"You don't have to compare with us, how much money you give is a mind. Besides, if you give two dollars, people will return you with two dollars. New Year's money is a lottery, don't you want to think that our family doesn't have children, this money is given away for nothing!"

Gao Liman muttered, "Otherwise, I'll tell my eldest sister that none of us will give this money." It's not interesting to give it back and forth!" After speaking, he added: "In previous years, we didn't have this habit!"

Kou Xi raised his face and smiled, "Ouch, really." That's really my mistake, our family didn't like this. You mean, I don't have to give them to Tianyi. In the future, we will not engage in this feudal superstitious activity. Okay, I'll do it with everyone!"

You don't have to look at Gao Liman's face to know that she is annoyed at this time. Kou Xi said again: "If you want to say that, I can understand. You said that I had to swish to give New Year's money just now, and the second sister and the two didn't know what to think. Both of us have jobs, and it's not easy for the second sister and the two of us!"

"What's not easy!" Gao Liman was not angry: "I see that people are doing better than us." If you don't have a good time, your mother's family will give you relief, and if you don't listen to it, your dad is nosy. Didn't it cost money in this life? Didn't our father give me money? That day, the second sister went to the hospital for an examination and came back, saying that she lacked nutrition, and you said that the big fat didn't need money. Our mother also bought a bag of milk powder, saying that it would supplement nutrition. I didn't see that the eggs at home were not allowed to eat, so I saved them for her. I didn't do this when I gave birth, I was really unconscious. ”

Gao Liman's complaints, Kou Xi has not listened to them in the past two days, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not easy to get along with, and there must be a lot of contradictions when there is an aunt who goes home to give birth.

"It's not easy for her!" Kou Xi whispered to Gao Liman: "Song Jiangang's family is poor, and the two of them don't have much land, and they don't have any savings all year round. The firstborn gave birth to a son, but it was a girl. I hope this baby is a son, and I won't need the help of the family in the future!"

"It's so hypocritical to her, it's difficult!" Gao Liman pouted: "It's not that I speak badly, people sometimes don't take themselves too seriously." If you take yourself too seriously, God won't take you seriously!"

Kou Xi refused to go along and say bad things about others, she was a person who came over and knew that it only took a bag of cigarettes to reach the ears of the person concerned. Be a listener at most, but not a participant.

Chop the leg of lamb into pieces, finely chop the sauerkraut, and soak in soft vermicelli. Pour cold water over the leg of lamb and boil the blood foam. Skim out the blood foam with a colander and throw it away, serve the lamb out, and pour the broth over it.

Pour oil into the pan and stir-fry garlic cloves, ginger slices, and dried chili peppers, and then add the lamb leg after stir-frying until fragrant. After the aroma is fragrant, take out the leg of lamb and put it in a clean casserole, and then pour the broth into the pot.

Place the casserole on the stove and simmer slowly until it is boiling. Kou Xi evenly sprinkled the chopped sauerkraut into the casserole. The pot was brushed here, and the cleaned carp was put into the pot.

He instructed Gao Liman: "You have to watch this casserole carefully, don't burn the pot dry." When the water is low, pour some soup from this basin and wait until the fish is cooked before putting the vermicelli into the casserole. Stir the casserole constantly with a spoon to heat it evenly. ”

Gao Liman didn't understand what it meant to be evenly heated, but he felt that Kou Xi liked to pretend to be too much and always liked to say something he couldn't understand.

In the room, Huo An was lying on the kang and heard Kou Xi's words, and felt that she had been married for most of the past six months. The words have some literary meanings, and the content of the letters is also rich. It seems that people will still change with the environment, and Kou Xi has changed a lot in the past six months.

Huo An is also relieved that Kou Xi is no longer as simple and innocent as before. No longer be cautiously manipulated like a quail, and will not participate in the activities of women's heads of families to pull their wives short.

Kou Xi returned to the kitchen next door and made a braised pork rib first. While waiting, I mixed a cold dish. In another pot, the blood sausage is cooked, cut and plated. Here the braised pork ribs are ready, put them out and set aside and cover with a lid. I have to prepare to make chicken stewed mushrooms, and then make a fat sausage, stir-fry the belly shreds, and pull out the sweet potato, as for whether to make a sweet and sour hairtail fish, it depends on the time.

Goliman walked in with a plate of carp and removed the panels from the kitchen. Li Cuilian led Zhang Yao and Gao Liman to start making dumplings in the house, Li Cuilian rolled out the skin, Zhang Yao wrapped leeks and eggs, and Gao Liman made celery and pork dumplings.

At this time, Huo An also woke up, closed the door in the room and opened the outside door. Let the smell in the kitchen evacuate, lest Kou Xi come back at night and have to sweep it again.

"Horu, come over and help!" Huo An beckoned to Horu: "Finish it early!"

Li Cuilian couldn't see her son working, so she hurriedly shouted: "What kind of work do men do, it's all the old lady's business! Go and go, you go and watch TV!"

After speaking, he yelled at Kou Xi, who was stir-frying in the kitchen behind the house: "Kou Xi, you can fry a spring roll for the children again." ”

Kou Xi agreed, Huo An frowned and was unhappy: "So many dishes are not enough to eat?" Kou Xi has already made sweet potatoes and shrimp chips. ”

"Oh, it's the New Year. It doesn't cost her anything to fry a spring roll, it's very simple!" Li Cuilian disagreed: "You don't have to feel sorry for your daughter-in-law, she can do it!"
