Chapter 7 Pork ribs
"Yo, didn't my family An Yi tell your family?" When Zhao Xia heard this, she immediately quickly took off her apron, greeted her while tidying up a big wave, and asked affectionately, "This kid!" How many times have you said it, you have to talk to the adults when you invite your classmates to come to your home, otherwise it won't make you anxious? ”
Ning Yue'e said: "Cough, it's none of An Yi's business, it's all my family's bastard thing, An Yi said to invite her, and she actually came!" The mouth of the beautiful head is so greedy, in the future, people will run after giving a cake, and they will lose the dead! ”
"Well, it's good to say that about my daughter." Zhao Xia disapprovingly let her go to the hall and said, "It's just right that you're here, let's eat something here." An Yi didn't say hello in advance, and made sweet and sour pork ribs and a little side dish in the evening, but we grew up together, and I don't think you care. ”
"......" Ning Guang in the room felt as if he had heard Ning Yue'e swallowing saliva.
Although there is often meat on the Ning family's dining table, it is all Ning Zong's alone.
Occasionally, Mrs. Chu and Ning Fulin would clip a pair of chopsticks.
Like Ning Yue'e and Ning Guangmiao's National Day, let alone eating it in your mouth, if you look at it more, you will be scolded by Mrs. Chu's bloody dog.
"Still can't." However, after Ning Yue'e was silent for a short time, she still refused, and she didn't even move her feet, "I'll call Ning Guang to go back and cook...... This thing is getting more and more unlearned, knowing that a large family is waiting for her to cook, and they have to come to your house to disturb, I really don't know what kind of sin I have done, so I gave birth to such an uninteresting beautiful head! ”
Her attitude was very resolute, Zhao Xia refused to accept repeated invitations, and Zhao Fuliang couldn't help his daughter, and finally Zhao Fuliang had to come in and say to his granddaughter: "An Yi, Xiaoguang's Mu Yan wants her to go back to cook, why don't you invite Xiaoguang to be a guest next time?" ”
Shen Anyi was very reluctant: "Our family is ready, why do you want to let Xiaoguang go?" Isn't it okay for her to cook by herself? My mother cooked my family's dinner. ”
"Alas, she has to work, how can she go home to cold the pot and cold stove?" Zhao Fuliang said, "Where does the beautiful head family in our village have such a blessing as you? I'm in the third grade, how can anyone not cook. ”
Shen Anyi said: "They are all girls, what is the blessing or not, grandpa, you are superstitious." ”
Zhao Fuliang was about to speak, but Ning Yue'e outside shouted again: "Xiaoguang!" Little light! What happened to you? Don't hurry up and go back! You want to starve us to death! ”
Ning Guang didn't want to go out from the bottom of her heart, she wasn't afraid of cooking, she was afraid that she would usher in a storm after she went back, but Zhao Fuliang's attitude was very resolute, and she persuaded Shen Anyi to let her go, she really didn't have the face to continue to stay in this situation, and got up in a panic: "Just come!" ”
"Wait!" Shen Anyi thought about it, grabbed her, and didn't let her go through the door, but entered the kitchen next to it, this kitchen is snow-white and clean, the walls are covered with tiles, and a small coal stove is placed next to the earthen stove that every household has, and there is a pot on the coal stove.
Shen Anyi opened the cupboard and took the dishes and chopsticks, opened the lid of the pot, the sweet and sour fragrance filled the room, and Ning Guang suddenly sped up the speed of swallowing saliva.
"Come, eat and go." Shen Anyi filled a bowl full of pork ribs and handed it to her, and whispered, "My mother is outside, you can eat with confidence, don't be afraid!" ”
Ning Guang was very afraid, but his eyes were glued to the ribs, and he couldn't take them off.
After hesitating for a moment, listening to Ning Yue'e's increasingly irritable scolding, even Zhao Xia couldn't stand it and shouted into the house: "An Yi, your Aunt Ning really has something to find Xiaoguang, or ...... Let Xiaoguang go back to cook first, and come over to play with you later? ”
Shen Anyi frowned: "Wait!" ”
Zhao Xia was really fond of this daughter, and when she heard this, she immediately said to Ning Yue'e: "Alas, my little ancestor! Yue'e, look at my face, don't worry about her child, wait a little longer, it's so late anyway. ”
In the kitchen, Ning Guang took a deep breath, and finally turned his gaze away with difficulty, and whispered, "Thank you." Then he ran out as fast as he could.
"Huh?" Shen Anyi was stunned and subconsciously caught up.
However, when she arrived at the hall, she was stopped by Zhao Fuliang, and took all the dishes and chopsticks: "Let your mother tell her to tell her to come over after cooking...... Obedient and obedient. ”
Outside, Ning Yue'e had quickly left with Ning Guang, Zhao Xia sent them to the door, closed the courtyard door and came back, seeing her daughter sitting in the hall with an unhappy face, Zhao Fuliang and the old couple carefully persuaded beside her, and went up and touched her head: "After all, it is Ning Yue'e's daughter, if she wants to call back, we can't force us to stay." Besides, if you left someone behind today, can she still live here for the rest of her life? When I went back, I was beaten even harder. I've already told Ning Yue'e that I'll come over to play with you when she finishes cooking, and eat first, huh? ”
Shen Anyi asked, "Will she be beaten when she cooks?" ”
"No, how do you cook when you make a fuss?" Zhao Xia sneered, I don't know if she thought of when she was her daughter, and said sarcastically, "This kind of rural place is feudal and backward, and I never treat my daughter as a person." Fortunately, you are just temporarily settled here, otherwise my mother will really feel distressed to death! ”
Zhao Fuliang and his wife couldn't hold back a little when they heard this, and said, "Don't talk nonsense! People have a hard time, why did you have a bad time before? The above three brothers, don't worry about the heavy work, just wash and scrub at home, there is no one more comfortable than you in the upper and lower villages! ”
"It's like you didn't want me to marry the cripple of the mountain and change my eldest brother's relatives." Zhao Xia immediately glanced sideways and said coldly, "I can tell you that An Yi was offered by you to help take care of her, and I will also give enough living expenses, don't let her live my life after I leave!" I don't want her to do anything at home, as long as she concentrates on practicing the piano and reading, if she does a little bit here...... In the future, if you don't have my daughter, I won't have an Abamyan like you! ”
Zhao Fuliang felt that he couldn't hold it on his face, and sank his face: "Everyone can do it with beautiful heads, why can't you do it with beautiful heads?" We can't afford to raise ...... so expensive."
"Oh, Xiaoxia, don't listen to your uncle." Before she finished speaking, she was kicked by her wife, and Kong Huamei laughed and coaxed her daughter, "He is a knife mouth tofu heart!" You don't want to think about it, An Yi is our own granddaughter and your parents-in-law's sweetheart, how can we treat her badly? ”
Isn't it just for a little beauty!
In exchange for Zhao Xia to continue to help her mother's family, what can't she do?
Zhao Fuliang is used to being the master of the house, and it is difficult to accept his daughter's cold face, and Kong Huamei doesn't care if she is low and small all her life.
As long as it is good for her sons and grandchildren, she is willing to be a cow and a horse.
Seeing that Zhao Xia seemed to be a little angry, she hurriedly went to pull Shen Anyi, who was confused by the sudden quarrel, "Don't say anything, let's eat, let's see that our An Yi is hungry, right?" ”
"Obediently, you go wash your hands, let's have dinner." When it came to her daughter, Zhao Xia really became kind and pleasant, and Wen Yan advised, "Remember to eat more vegetables later." ”
Kong Huamei went to the kitchen to help serve the dishes, took the ribs that Shen Anyi had just served into it, poured them into the plate, looked back at her granddaughter and washed her hands by the well in the patio, and whispered: "An Yi is too bad to live, just invite Xiaoguang next door to eat, Xiaoguang and her mother are all here to shout, and they have to hold such a big bowl of pork ribs for her!" Fortunately, Xiaoguang didn't ask for it a little cheeky, otherwise ......"
"How else?" Zhao Xia said angrily, "Can you die poor if you give Xiaoguang a bowl of pork ribs?" ”
“…… Before, you didn't let your nephews come over for dinner. Kong Huamei frowned, "That Xiaoguang, don't be stupid to her!" You don't know how Mrs. Chu and Yue'e arranged you behind your back! ”
Zhao Xia had a calm face: "You are embarrassed to mention your grandsons!" It's the same as the reincarnation of a starving ghost! I bought beef to replenish An Yi's body, but what happened? You call them over, and when An Yi comes back from washing her hands, then a large pot of beef has bottomed out! I've worked hard to cook for my daughter, and I've become a nephew?! ”
"Let me tell you, the living expenses I give you are enough for you to let An Yi eat and drink spicy food every day, if you call your grandchildren over while I am gone, and my daughter will not eat well, I promise that they will rot in the countryside for the rest of their lives, and they will not be able to get out of the country for eight lifetimes!"
Kong Huamei was flushed by her.
Zhao Xia said again that Mrs. Chu and Ning Yue'e: "What do I care about what they say behind their backs?" In front of me, does Mrs. Chu dare to please me? The more they say that I am jealous of me, the more I like them, and I have to flatter my face to death! ”
"......" Kong Huamei picked up the ribs and went out.
Zhao Fuliang's family didn't know about these turmoil and Ning Guang.
She was taken back by Ning Yue'e tremblingly, and as expected, Mrs. Chu and Ning Fulin were scolded, and ordered her to hand over the box given by Shen Anyi to Ning Zong immediately.
So Ning Yue'e said angrily: "Zhao Xia said that she would wait for her to come over and play with her beautiful head later." ”
Mrs. Chu, who had already picked up the mallet, groaned, but she didn't do anything, but said meanly: "Something that has no face and no skin, when I see that people have a lot of money, I salivate and stick it on it, and sure enough, the beautiful family is thin-eyed...... Wait a few years, hurry up and give her a look of others, otherwise when you see a man, you will run away, where will our family face go? ”
Ning Guang shivered into the kitchen, and his whole body was trembling when he filled the firewood.
One moment cold, sometimes hot, trance, even feel that everything in front of me is both familiar and unfamiliar.
She was doing things numbly and mechanically, and she didn't know how long it took, Ning Yue'e came in and scolded, saying that Zhao Xia personally came to pick her up to play with Shen Anyi.
"If they give you something to eat, don't forget to bring it back to Zongzong." Ning Yue'e scolded and led her out, thought about it and whispered, "Your beautiful head is so greedy, who will want you in the future?" Let Zongzong eat more, and you will have face when you have a future interest. ”
Ning Guang didn't say anything, but there was a gurgling sound in his stomach.
Only then did the mother and daughter remember that she hadn't eaten yet.
Ning Yue'e sneered: "I'll just say why didn't you eat dinner today?" I think about the bones of others! Like a dog, throw a bone and go up, born a slut. ”
Seeing that she was silent, her heart became more and more irritable, "Hurry up!" On a big night, I have to run to the courtyard for you, which is simply what I owe you in my previous life! ”
"Xiaoguang, it's so late, but I'm sorry for you." Compared with Ning Yue, Zhao Xia's attitude is actually more like Ning Guang's Mu Yan, but Ning Guang knows that this is all Zhao Xia's face for Shen Anyi's sake, no, even to see it for herself Mu Yan.
She wasn't very good at saying anything flattering, so she just shook her head when she heard it.
Zhao Xia really didn't care, led her into the courtyard of her mother's house, handed it to Shen Anyi, who was looking at the hall and wanted to wear it, and went upstairs: "Obediently, mom go and call your father, you play with Xiaoguang, if Xiaoguang wants to go back, let your grandfather send her, it's too late, don't go out for your child." ”
Shen Anyi was pulling Ning Guang towards the kitchen, but she didn't hear her words clearly, and said casually: "I know, Mom, go up." ”
"I left a ...... for you" She opened the cupboard excitedly, only to find that there was only a little sauce left in the original half bowl of pork ribs!
"Grandma, where are the ribs I kept?" Shen Anyi was stunned, and hurriedly asked Kong Huamei in the room.
Kong Huamei hurriedly came out and motioned to her to whisper: "Good girl, your mother went upstairs to call, don't quarrel with them, if you don't hear it clearly, you will have to talk for a while, but you can waste the phone bill!" ”
Chaoyang Village has two telephones so far, one in the village committee and the other upstairs.
Although it was quite showy when it was installed, for the old couple of Zhao Fuliang, who were used to frugality, it was really distressing to see the phone bill every month: even if it was Zhao Xia, it was distressing!
So Shen Anyi didn't doubt it at all, and immediately lowered her voice: "Grandma, where are the ribs?" When I was eating just now, I specially allocated it. ”
"Ahh Kong Huamei looked surprised, "I won't eat it, I just poured it to the chickens, ducks and geese in the backyard." ”
Shen Anyi let out an "ah", stomped her feet and complained: "I said at that time that I would leave it to Xiaoguang!" You still talk to your grandfather! Why did it fall out? ”
"Grandma is old!" Kong Huamei showed an embarrassed expression and rubbed her hands, "What I just said, I turned my head and forgot about it...... Why don't I boil an egg for Hikaru Ko? ”
Shen Anyi was about to agree, but Ning Guang lowered his eyes and whispered, "No need An Yi, I have eaten at home." ”
If you want to say that you can still be a little suspicious during the day at school, you still can't see it?
Shen Anyi...... The days you live with her are fundamentally different things.
Worlds apart.
So Shen Anyi would believe that Kong Huamei mistakenly poured the ribs she left for Ning Guang to the chickens, ducks and geese; Ningguang knew that in these years, not to mention most of the bowl of sweet and sour pork ribs, even if a little bit of meat foam fell to the ground, he would be reluctant to pick it up and stuff it in his mouth with dust...... Kong Huamei just didn't want to give her food.
The girl was in a trance for a moment: why is it that Shen Anyi, who is also a girl, is favored and has no worries about food and clothing, and can learn the piano, but she is a slave of the family all day long, and she is beaten and scolded at every turn???
