Chapter 62: Sister-in-law, Big Brother Beat You?
In fact, Ye Yuan is very good-looking, but he is tall, he has been a soldier, and now he is a hunter, carrying a bow on his back every day, carrying a firewood knife, and a black face, so it is strange that others are not afraid of him.
For example, Ye He is a little afraid of her eldest brother, as long as Ye Yuan tells her anything on weekdays, she will go immediately, and every time she looks at Ye Yuan, every time she says hello, she runs away, and in front of Ye Yuan, she always lowers her head, as if she is very afraid.
It's just that Liu Man'er knows that in fact, others are good.
"But the more fierce you are, the better, others are afraid of you, so I like you, so you will like me more." Liu Man'er said a little selfishly.
"What kind of logic are you?" Ye Yuan asked with his head sideways.
"Didn't you say that a priest dies for a confidant? I know you're an incomparable treasure, but I don't want others to know so they don't covet you and come with me to rob you. Can you understand my thoughts? Liu Man'er Rory said a lot.
"You're selfish." Ye Yuan commented.
"Yes, I'm just selfish, you didn't know it the first day, I'm still jealous." Liu Man'er looked not ashamed, but proud.
"Yes, but I like you like that." Ye Yuan said while splashing water in the basin to wash clothes, but the sound of the water could not cover his voice at all, and when Liu Man'er heard it, she walked to his back, put her arms around his neck, and then kissed him lightly on the cheek.
Ye Yuan suddenly turned red from the root of his ears to his cheeks, "You woman, this is daytime." ”
"I didn't do anything to you." Liu Man'er let out a breath of heat in his ear, feeling Ye Yuan's body stiffen, she laughed proudly, she knew that he was a two-faced person, serious during the day, and not serious at night.
Ye He, who went to the kitchen to get food for Ye Tianchen, saw her brother and sister-in-law's intimate appearance, and hurriedly hid her body next to the pillar in the corridor, and waited until Liu Man'er continued to tease Ye Tianchen before she came over with her things.
In this world, there is really one thing and one thing, and I am a little afraid of my eldest brother, but my sister-in-law is not afraid, and the relationship between the two seems to be very good.
A few days ago, when she went out to play, others asked her: "Hey, does your eldest brother beat your sister-in-law every day at home?" ”
She felt a little inexplicable, so she said, "No." ”
"Then why is your sister-in-law so obedient now? Don't come out to play at home every day? And run up the hill with your big brother? But there are snakes and insects on the mountain, and she is not afraid? ”
"I don't know." Ye He shook his head at that time.
However, she felt that her sister-in-law had changed quite a lot, and she was also afraid that her eldest brother would beat her sister-in-law, otherwise how could her sister-in-law become so polite?
So she leaned against the wall last night and listened carefully, and sure enough, she seemed to hear her sister-in-law screaming, and she screamed for half the night, as if begging for mercy, and said something I didn't dare to say, but the eldest brother didn't seem to stop, she wanted to save her sister-in-law, but she didn't have the courage.
I secretly told my mother this morning, and my mother also said that she didn't care, and asked her not to eavesdrop, why is this? I don't understand.
But she thought that her eldest brother was secretly beating her at night, but why, they seemed to have a good relationship during the day?
I couldn't figure it out, but I couldn't help it, so when Liu Man'er hugged Ye Tianchen, who was about to fall asleep, back to the room, Ye He finally couldn't help but ask: "Sister-in-law, did the eldest brother beat you?" ”
"No?" Liu Man'er shook her head, a little puzzled: "Why did you suddenly ask like this?" ”
"Sister-in-law, you have changed a lot recently, and others say that you were subdued by your eldest brother." Ye He whispered.
"yes, I was subdued by him." Liu Man'er took the opportunity to admit it.
When Ye He heard Liu Man'er say this, his heart suddenly became nervous, he had long heard that a woman who married would be beaten by a man, and a man in the village would beat his wife, so he would definitely be beaten when he grew up and married.
Thinking of this, Ye He was worried about her future, so that she was very nervous on the day she got married in the future, and she held Liu Man'er's hand and refused to marry.
"Sister-in-law, you are so pitiful." Ye He was a little sad, "Big brother has so much strength, it must have hurt when he hit you." ”
"It hurts." Liu Man'er nodded, still how did this little girl suddenly think of this.
"No wonder you called for most of the night last night, where did the eldest brother beat you, I'll rub it for you?"
As soon as Ye He said this, Liu Man'er's face instantly turned red to black, from black to red.
The sound insulation of this ancient house was so poor, she remembered that she didn't call it much.
I really don't want to live, but fortunately, this little girl doesn't understand anything.
"Thank you, Xiaohe, but don't worry, my sister-in-law doesn't hurt now." Liu Man'er sneered and put Ye Tianchen in her arms into the cradle.
Liu Man'er wanted to go out to settle accounts with Ye Yuan, but she thought that Ye Yuan had just washed her clothes and said that she had something to do and went out, so Liu Man'er could only stomp her feet on the spot, and then helplessly went to cook.
Although she rarely cooks, cooking is not difficult for her, so let Ye He help light the fire, and she herself washes rice and pours it into the pot.
Wait until the rice boils, then take out the rice, and the remaining rice soup can be used as porridge.
When cooking, Liu Man'er began to prepare vegetables again, and now there are water spinach and leeks in the ground to eat, and the water spinach leaves are selected separately, and the water spinach stalks are cut from the middle, washed and cut into small pieces.
Then cut some leftover rabbit meat prepared yesterday, and then cut the leeks into sections, intending to fry a scrambled egg with leeks.
Soon, the rice was cooked, Liu Man'er found a large porcelain basin and put them separately, then washed the pot and began to stir-fry, stir-fry meat dishes, and then stir-fry vegetarian dishes. Liu Man'er is a person who is willing to put oil, and this uses an iron pot to cook the fire, and when the dish is cooked, it is immediately fragrant.
"It smells so good." Ye He couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"You burn the fire well, and you'll be indispensable later." Liu Man'er smiled slightly, and finally felt good, and made another fried rice ball.
It is very simple to chop the meat, put salt, and rice together, knead it into a ball, wrap the adjusted egg flour on the outside, and fry it in the oil, and the egg flour on the outside will puff up in an instant, and when it is fried until golden brown, the meat rice balls inside will be cooked.
"Sister-in-law, you're amazing." Ye He praised.
"Of course." Liu Man'er is not the kind of humble person, she instructed Ye Hedao: "Put out the fire and go and ask your mother to come back for dinner." ”
As she spoke, she walked out with her meal.
Today seems to be the first time she has come to Ye's house to cook, I hope it can be recognized by everyone.
Set up the chairs for eating, sit on the chairs and wait for the others to go home, and didn't wait long, Ye He just walked to the gate when he saw Fang himself coming back, Fang walked in the door, Ye Yuan also followed, but behind him there were two young men leading horses.
Okay, Liu Man'er had sharp eyes, and immediately recognized that these two people were Zhongli and Li Han yesterday, and they said that they were going to take the road back to Yanwang's Mansion, but they didn't expect to really come over.
"Mother, you're back." Liu Man'er first said hello to the Fang clan, and then continued to walk forward.
"Okay, this is my home." Ye Yuan invited these two people into the courtyard, and Liu Man'er just went out to greet them.
"Ye Yuan, didn't you just say that you had something to do outside? It turned out to be to receive these two distinguished guests from afar. Liu Man'er said with a smile.
"I just happened to meet them on the road, so I invited them to come to my house for dinner." Ye Yuan replied.
Fang's clan, who had just walked in the door, heard the voice behind him, so he also turned back, "Ah, Yuan'er, there are friends coming, please invite them in." ”
As soon as the Fang family saw this Zhongli and Li Han, he didn't ask where they came from, he just invited the two of them to go to the house, "You haven't eaten yet, come in and sit." ”
Saying that, Fang Shi rummaged in the house again, and saw that Liu Man'er had cooked, she nodded again and again, and asked again, "Man'er, are you cooking enough food today?" ”
"Enough." Liu Man'er replied: "I originally even cooked tonight's dinner together. ”
"That's good, isn't this dish a little enough?" Fang's family was a little anxious, it was rare to have a guest at home.
"You eat with them first, and I'll fry a peanut." Liu Man'er signaled that Fang's family didn't need to worry, she said hello to Ye He, asked Ye He to come over to help peel peanuts, and then made a fire by herself, fried a piece of egg cake, and made egg custard for one night.
Finally, the peanuts are peeled, salted and fried, and they are all served on the table, which can be regarded as a few dishes.
"My sister-in-law is really capable." Li Han praised.
Liu Man'er shook her head and smiled at them, although her tone was not very good to them yesterday, but it was outside, and Liu Man'er was still very friendly to the guests who came to her house.
"Let's eat together." Zhongli also beckoned Ye Yuan to sit down.
"Eat, I'll get you wine." Liu Man'er stood up as she spoke, and instructed Ye He to go to the chief's house to buy wine.
Yes, in the village, although the chief's family is not the richest, their things are the most complete, and there are always some villagers who need something urgently, so they often go to the chief's house to borrow or buy at this time.
Including when there is a shortage of money, I often take eggs to the chief's house for a few dollars, and some people come to the house to buy eggs with money, in short, the long house here is equivalent to a grocery store, and it is a transfer station for bartering.
But in fact, there are no grocery stores in this poor village, because even if there are grocery stores, no one goes back to buy things on weekdays, and if they need a lot of things, they go to the town.
Anyway, Liu Man'er thinks that the chief in this village is quite good, because most of them have the same surname, and they are more or less related, but there will be no bullying of those chiefs.
After a while, Ye He bought the wine, Liu Man'er stood aside and poured it for them, when it was Ye Yuan's turn, she hesitated, but still poured him half a bowl.
Because she didn't know if Ye Yuan drank or not, it stands to reason that people who were soldiers should be able to drink, but after he went home, it seemed that he had never drank.
I heard that people who drink alcohol like to pour a glass of wine and chant every time they eat, but Ye Yuan has never drunk it, is it because of this family that he has saved money on wine?
Liu Man'er stood aside, saw Ye Yuan touching the bowl with them, and then drank it all.
This momentum looks arrogant, but every time she pours wine, Liu Man'er still only pours him half a cup, she is a little afraid that he will get drunk.
"Hey, sister-in-law, you're not right, you pour us full every time, and pour half a cup for Brother Ye, why is this?" Li Han noticed Liu Man'er's movements, and shouted.
Liu Man'er smiled slightly, "This is our custom here. ”
Li Han was speechless for a moment.
