Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Secret of Xiao Heping
The Xiao family has a total of seventeen people, Xiao Heping is not there, but as a great contributor to fighting wild boars, Song Enli must have a share, which can be divided into eleven catties and three in total, and the old butcher has made it up.
Wild boar meat is much harder than domestic pork, most of it is lean meat, not very oily, but the taste is more delicious than domestic pork.
Like all women who can live, Wang Xiuying pickled all the lean meat and hung it on the beams of the house to eat it slowly, and boiled all the fat into oil.
He wrapped a large pot of dumplings with oil residue and cabbage, and boiled the pig's large intestine and pig's blood tofu to stew sauerkraut potatoes, and the barrel bone was also boiled into soup with white radish according to Song Enli's words, and then mixed with wild vegetables, and the whole family had a beautiful meal.
Beauty is beauty, but Wang Xiuying's heart has been up and down.
This eldest girl has only been in their house for a few days, and she fell into the river and encountered a wild boar, she is really afraid of something more or someone else will tell her something, if that is the case, their fourth child will be completely ruined!
After lunch, Song Enli divided the canned fruit, walnut crisp and candy into five equal portions, the three brothers of the Xiao family, Wang Xiuying and her family, and gave Xiao Jianjun's five girls a can of malt cream.
When the little girl was born, the famine was the most serious, the foundation was not laid, and she couldn't cry until now, and the small ball with yellow muscles was really pitiful.
After waiting for the division, she secretly stuffed her share to Xiao Xiaoshuan, this child is sensible, but he has been protecting her by the river in the afternoon, as for herself, only a jar of malt milk essence is locked in the cabinet.
She didn't care about anything else, it was that this malt milk essence was almost withdrawn from the market later, she had never seen it when she heard that it was all the rage, and she wanted to save some for herself.
Xiao Xiaoshuan was excited and told her a secret that was not a secret.
He heard his mother say that it was because Liu Fenfang was telling people bad things about his fourth uncle everywhere, so that his fourth uncle couldn't talk about his daughter-in-law.
Song Enli could guess that Liu Fenfang's purpose in doing this was nothing more than to make Xiao Heping's reputation bad, so that he could only marry her, otherwise what could she do with Xiao Heping's conditions?
However, she was still very curious about what Liu Fenfang said about Xiao Heping, so she couldn't get a wife, so she asked Xiao Xiaoshui, "What's wrong with your fourth uncle?" ”
Xiao Xiaozhuan shook his head, "I don't know, adults always say secretly, it's not good anyway." ”
Not good?
Song Enli couldn't help but think about it.
What's bad?
Probably not that......
She couldn't help but think of the daughters-in-law and aunts who pointed and talked openly and secretly several times, and even Aunt Xiao occasionally talked about Xiao Heping, but she always avoided the important and trivialized, and felt more and more that he was the obstacle.
But whether this is the truth or not, she is very angry, how to say that Xiao Heping is her savior! How can people be bullied so much!
And inexplicably, she still has some sympathy for this man who doesn't like to talk, how pitiful, she has been living under other people's tongues, how many blows do she have to suffer one after another to become so silent......
So, a poor man sneezed twice in succession in the office of the provincial army that day, which made Xiao Sun very nervous.
What to do, their iron man chief has a cold!
In the blink of an eye, half of the spring ploughing has passed, and the originally withered yellow fields are gradually showing full of vitality, and Song Enli is almost familiar with this small village.
In fact, the folk customs of the Qingshan Brigade are quite simple, except for Zhao Chunlan and Widow Liu, most of the members are more honest and responsible, and they can usually say hello when they walk on the road, especially the wild boar she called makes the big guy have a little oil star in their stomachs, and they are even more polite to her.
One afternoon, she and Xiao Xiaozhuan carried a rattan basket up the mountain to pick wild vegetables as usual, and caught a pheasant, which was one of the last releases, and the other one was gone, and it was estimated that people were caught, and they "touched" more than a dozen wild eggs and some miscellaneous bird eggs.
When passing by the field on her way home, Wang Xiuying stopped Xiao Xiaoshui, touched two cents and asked him to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy salt, and asked Song Enli to hurry home and collect the clothes first, it is estimated that it will rain later.
Spring ploughing was busy, Song Enli couldn't wait to help the family do something, and immediately acted separately with Xiao Xiaoshui.
As soon as she entered the hospital, she felt that something was not quite right, and slapped her head!
The gate of the courtyard was open, and the door of her house was open!
The adults are still working in the fields, the children haven't returned, there is no one at home, and even if there are people, they won't go to her house!
Song Enli put down the rattan basket in his hand, picked up the broom from the corner of the wall, and tiptoed over, and the angle of inclination was just right to see the tall army-green figure standing there motionless in the half-open door, with a tough and neat side face.
Xiao Heping!
Wait a minute......
What's he doing?
Song Enli's gaze focused accurately from Xiao Heping's body to his raised right hand, and he was carrying a black bud. Silk Wen. Chest!
