Chapter 138: I don't listen to persuasion
Huo Xinyu's request was immediately rejected by Huo Jiaojiao, and when she saw Huo Jiaojiao, she finally remembered something.
"By the way, I forgot to ask Gao Liman what he sent our dad when you interrupted just now. As he spoke, he was about to go out, looking for Huo Lu and his family to ask.
Kou Xi grabbed her: "People are willing to give whatever they want, even if they don't send it, what does it have to do with us!"
"Then it doesn't matter!" Huo Jiaojiao was not afraid that these words would pass from Huo Xinyu's mouth, and she wished that Huo Xinyu would be a little horn to convey her meaning.
"They are all sons and daughters, daughters and daughters-in-law can do it, and sons should do it too. Our dad has done so much to them throughout the year, helping to feed the children and provide food and drink, and his tired hair is gray. It doesn't matter what you do!" Huo Jiao said coquettishly: "I have to ask, what did they buy!"
"It's none of your business to buy a mountain of gold and silver!" Kou Xi grabbed her stubbornly: "Let's buy it because we want to honor the elderly, and it's people's intention to buy it, and if people don't buy it, our father will see it." Don't you know if he counts in his heart?"
Huo Jiaojiao had a dark face: "If you buy it, you will take the liberty of asking, as if we look down on people." If you don't buy it, you ask people to go out and buy something, and it's not the old man's money. The wool is out of the sheep, what are you doing in that form!"
Huo Jiaojiao said dejectedly: "Yes, you are right, the wool comes out of the sheep." It's all the same thing, no matter what!"
She raised her hand, sat down on the sofa and said to Kou Xi, "When are you going to perm my hair?"
Kou Xi said with a smile: "Of course, it's when you're about to go to bed after eating at night, and I'll get it for you when you're done washing your hair and half dry." ”
Huo Jiaojiao seemed to think of something, and slapped her thigh: "I found that you are quite decent now, and you are very comforting when you talk in one set!"
"You're not the same as you used to be, and you can take what you say to heart. It's not like a cannonball, it's ignited. I know it's time to think about it!" the two looked at each other and smiled, feeling that the two of them had stepped into a step after the experience of this day.
Huo Xinyu looked at these two people and didn't know when they became so good, and his heart was a little sour. I couldn't help but interject: "Sister-in-law, when can I put on makeup?"
"When you don't study, you can do whatever you want, no one cares about you!" Huo Jiaojiao raised her hand, she didn't like this little sister very much. In the past, when there was only one daughter in the family, she worked and cooked every day and watched Huo An. He was in charge of the family at a young age, and he worked until he got married.
Huo Xinyu is simply blessed many times more than her, she eats well and wears well, and her father is used to being spoiled by her mother. Huo Jiaojiao felt aggrieved when she looked at Huo Xinyu, and she never had a good attitude towards her.
"Woo~" Huo Xinyu pouted coquettishly, turned around and went out.
"I can't get used to this virtue, and it's 'woo' or 'hum' all the time, who will show it to you. I'm not an old man, I'm not used to stinky problems!" Huo Jiaojiao's eyes were about to turn to the sky, and she didn't want to see Huo Xinyu outside of her words.
Kou Xi pursed her lips and didn't gnaw, she didn't get involved in the matter between the two sisters. To put it bluntly, it was the past of the previous generation. As long as Huo Jiaojiao is in her parents' house for a day, she just needs to watch this hot woman and not cause trouble. As for whether to throw face at anyone, she didn't dare to mix too much, lest she feel that her elbow was another trouble.
In the evening, Gao Liman cooked and made a large table of dishes. Huo Jiaojiao frowned when she saw this: "It's only my birthday tomorrow, so I'll do so much today!"
"The eldest sister is home, she must have some hard dishes!" Gao Liman said with a smile, and specially asked Qian Dun'er: "There is orange juice at home, do you want a bottle?"
Tangerine juice is a common drink at wedding receptions, and there are several petals of oranges in the glass bottle. The taste is generally made by blending flavors and pigments, but it is also a good thing in this era.
Kou Xi took a closer look and found that there was nothing good about this so-called table of dishes. At home, the water tofu was mixed with shallots, the dried tofu was mixed with vermicelli cabbage, the fungus was fried with cabbage, the braised tofu was fried with green onions, the radish was fried with a tofu bubble, a duck was stewed, and a fish was fried, and a plate of eggs were fried.
"It's a tofu meeting!" Kou Xi couldn't help but say, "It's all tofu, my mother!"
"Hahaha, tofu has a meeting!" Huo Tianyi laughed on the side, thinking that what Kou Xi said was very interesting.
"But no, you're not the same, potato stew and frozen tofu, it's just right!" Huo Lu also teased his wife, and Gao Li was so angry that he couldn't wait to reach out and twist it on his arm.
Said stupidly: "There are only these things at home, and it is easy to make them." Besides, my craftsmanship is not good, and I can't cook other dishes!"
Kou Xi didn't mean anything else, and said with a smile: "It's okay, just have something to eat, I don't mean anything else." ”
said that he sandwiched a chopsticks of braised dried tofu: "You haven't eaten it yet, our dad's current signboard." It is the first place to sell out in every market, and it is very delicious. ”
Huo Tianyi was like a little trumpet, and added: "It was the eldest lady who soaked it in broth!"
"Oh, you can now. I have to take you with me when I go out to catch up with the market in the future, and you must have bought it from the old people in that small mouth!" Huo Lu couldn't help but praise his son: "My son is really good now!"
Although Kou Xi had advised Huo Jiaojiao before, don't be too concerned with Huo Lu Gaoliman. But this person's character is not cultivated in a day or two, how can Huo Jiaojiao hold back and not ask.
While chewing tofu, she asked Huo Lu, "Tomorrow is our father's birthday, what do you buy for it?"
Kou Xi's eating movement froze for a moment, and then lowered his head to eat.
"I've bought ribs, let's stew ribs tomorrow!" Horu replied loudly.
As soon as Huo Jiaojiao saw him talking like this, she knew that Huo Lu was empty-hearted, and she must have not prepared anything for the old man.
couldn't help but raise her face and ask Li Cuilian: "Have you eaten the whole pork ribs prepared for the New Year?"
Li Cuilian said without blushing and without a heartbeat: "It's not that I haven't eaten everything, it's all spring, and I can't freeze at all." It's broken when you leave it outside!"
In the winter in Tohoku, food to be frozen is left outside the house. Or in an unheated barn, or in a large water tank in the yard. A large refrigerator with a natural temperature of minus twenty or thirty degrees.
It's the fifth month of the lunar calendar, and the spring flowers have already bloomed. It is impossible for anyone's frozen goods to stay and eat now, Huo Jiaojiao's question is nonsense.
However, Huo Jiaojiao has not been a fool in the past ten years, and she is already a martial arts master under the mixed doubles of her mother-in-law's family.
Then she sneered: "Zhang Yao's confinement is very good, isn't she ten pounds and twenty pounds fat?"
It means that the New Year's goods bought for her mother's family were all eaten by Zhang Yao during confinement. That's why I couldn't stay on May Day for the old man's birthday.
