Chapter 258: What Went Wrong
"It's delicious, it's delicious. Please search (book lover) to see the most complete! The fastest update" Xu Miao kept nodding and saying, Xu Zhenghai was very happy when he heard it, and sat on the chair without politeness, and said:
"It's delicious, I'm not boasting, your third aunt makes good things, especially this croquette."
Xu Miao smiled and nodded, thinking that when she first came here, the old mansion asked her to be in charge of croquettes in order to welcome her grandson-in-law Ding Yunhe. Two years have passed, and the days have passed quickly.
Shiro came in after beating the pulp, Xu Miao hurriedly greeted him and said, "Sanbo has sent meatballs, you take the bowl to the kitchen to find your sister Ya, and ask her to pour out the bowl for Sanbo." ”
"Oh, got it." Shiro walked over to serve the bowl, saluted Xu Zhenghai, turned around and went out.
Today, Shiro is wearing a new dress made by Xu Ya a while ago, a royal blue gold thread embroidered dress, and the same white belt made by Dongmei at the waist. In addition, Shiro has been studying for another year, and his temperament is obviously different from before, looking at that outfit, I don't know, I think it's the young master of whose family.
Xu Zhenghai looked at Shiro's back, sighed softly, and said:
"This child is in your charge, this personality and temperament have changed a lot, I still remember that year, he fought with Sister Chi, it seems to be yesterday."
At the mention of his beloved daughter, Xu Zhenghai couldn't help but sigh heavily. Xu Miao was loading his purse, and seeing him like this, he hurriedly reached out and patted the back of his hand, saying:
"Uncle San, don't be like this. Didn't Mr. Wu show the third aunt a few years ago, saying that she was almost well, and she would drink some decoction medicine in the spring, and you could start to have children. ”
Xu Zhenghai listened, nodded with relief, clenched Xu Miao's hand with his backhand, and said gratefully:
"Girl, if it weren't for your help, my family would definitely not have a good time."
For more than half a year, Xu Zhenghai has been working in the workshop every day, and he has indeed made a lot of money. The food eaten at home does not cost money, the vegetables are all grown in their own yard, and the tofu is taken from the tofu factory, and there is no need to give money, and the salary is basically saved.
If it weren't for the spring to build a house, the ten taels of silver owed would have been repaid long ago. I saved ten taels of silver in half a year, which I couldn't even think of before I changed it. Xu Miao chuckled and shook his head at the third uncle, withdrew his hand, and after packing the lotus, he said:
"How can I help anything, it's just that you and the third aunt will meet. I can see clearly in the summer, where have you two eaten stir-fried vegetables, a pot of lettuce, a handful of shallots, a bowl of sauce, and just ate a meal. ”
"Yes, if it weren't for you, a girl, who felt sorry for the third uncle and secretly sent a strip of meat over, the third uncle wouldn't know when he would be able to eat meat." Xu Zhenghai said jokingly, and Xu Miao also felt funny when he heard it.
When Xu Zhenghai helped her fight with the shopkeeper of the town, she brought a pork belly over, and it has been more than half a year since this incident, and the two of them are still mentioning it, which is really ...... It's not the same as before.
Shiro came in from outside, and with a large pointed bowl in his hand, he placed it on the table, and said:
"Third uncle, this is the fried cake fried by Sister Bud and Sister Dongmei, bring some back for you and the third aunt, let you taste it."
"Oh, yes, it's good, the third uncle loves to eat the fried cakes served by my Shiro." Xu Zhenghai said, reached out and touched Shiro's cheek, turned his head to look at Xu Miao, and said, "This kid has grown a lot, and I think that Xiao Wu has also grown a lot." ”
"It's not, we often get together on weekdays, and I can't see them grow, but I can see it in this dress, and it's obviously so short." Xu Miao said as she gestured with her hands.
When Xiao Wu heard the praise of him, his face was also beautiful, and he took the couplet written by San Lang and the four blessing characters, rolled it up after drying, and tied it with white thread. walked over and handed it to Xu Zhenghai and said:
"Uncle San, take it back and paste it, give it to you first."
"You're welcome, then." Xu Zhenghai accepted it with a smile, picked up the bowl again, and said to Xu Miao, "The third uncle will go back first, the first day of the first year of tomorrow'er, what your third uncle means is to let you all go over there to eat." ”
"As for Quandong, they will also go over to eat when the time comes, the house can be opened, and there is still a place in the west courtyard. Miao'er, don't refuse, okay? Otherwise, the third uncle will go back, and the matter will not be done, and your third uncle should not let the third uncle eat. ”
Half-joking, half-serious.
Jiro and Saburo in the room all laughed. Xu Miao also pursed her lips and smiled, nodded, and said:
"The third uncle's cooking is so delicious, we naturally want to go over to eat, don't worry, third uncle, we will go over after breakfast tomorrow."
"Hey, that's good, the third uncle will go first." Xu Zhenghai got the reply and went out happily, and Shiro followed sensibly and sent him out.
Erlang put the couplet written by his younger brother on the table next to him, and then said, "The third uncle is different from before, and now he is willing to chatter." ”
Xu Miao and the others were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then they all nodded in agreement. In the old mansion before, the most nonexistent person was Xu Zhenghai, he was present at what the family said, but he never spoke.
Xu Miao packed her purse, stood up and came to San Lang's side, put her hand on Erlang's shoulder, and muttered:
"This is a family, although the two of them have suffered a loss, but in exchange for a good life in the future, it seems to be good."
"Hmm." Erlang nodded, and dragged the red paper out, so that San Lang could write the following words, "I saw Uncle Chunsheng a few days ago, and he was still talking to me, saying that the third uncle's personality has changed a lot, and if I see him, I can drag and nag for a while." ”
After Saburo finished writing the next couplet, he stopped writing and looked up, looked at Erlang, thought for a while, and said:
"Brother Erlang, what do you think about what the second uncle said?"
After San Lang said this, Erlang's face suddenly turned red. Xu Miao frowned slightly in confusion, turned his head to look at his younger brother, raised his eyebrows and did not speak. San Lang naturally understood what his sister meant, and looked at Erlang, who didn't speak, before he spoke:
"Sister, you don't know, on the day our family killed the pig, didn't you go to the second courtyard to cook or something, the second uncle dragged Brother Erlang to the side, which means to ask him, see how Sister Xu Fu is."
"Uh......" Xu Miao was speechless, turned his head to look at Erlang, and saw that he was blushing with his head down, and suddenly understood what was going on. Xu Fu of the second uncle's family is the same age as her, and after the age of seventeen, she should talk about marriage.
In addition to Erlang, the men of school age in the village are He Dazhuang's younger brother He Erzhuang, and the Shan family is reluctant to marry his daughter far away, so he has long let out his words to find a mother-in-law for his daughter in this village or a neighboring village.
Erlang is good-looking, and he is well-known in the village for being honest and capable of working. In addition, his parents are gone, and now he is working in a tofu factory, with good looks and income, very good conditions.
The only verbose, that is, this Shiro, was a child and didn't grow up, but now that people are studying, their personalities have changed. In the future, if you learn to understand it and take a fame or something, this is absolutely limitless.
With such a careful calculation, Erlang is a proper potential stock.
Xu Miao thought of this, gossiped and tugged on Erlang's sleeve, looked at him shyly, and said:
"Brother Erlang, you often go to the second uncle's house to help in the summer, are you ......?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Erlang blushed and spoke out to stop him. casually handed over a few couplets and happy words written by San Lang to Xiao Wu. The little guy went out to find Quandong and them, and went to the factory to post couplets.
Erlang looked at his smiling sister, frowned slightly, and continued, "I went over at that time, just to help." The tofu factory is closed every afternoon, and the children in their family are all working in the factory, and the second uncle is at home with Niuzi, and they have so much land, what kind of place does he come over. ”
"Okay, good, you help, you're ......"
"you, little bunny, don't think you're wearing a decent outfit, you're a young master. I'll tell you, you're the pug next to those five boys, you really take yourself seriously, and you're still preaching to me, I'll kill you bastard......"
Halfway through Xu Miao's words, he heard the shouting and scolding in the courtyard. The three brothers and sisters, you look at me, I look at you, they all put down their work and walked quickly to the door of the study. As soon as Saburo opened the door, all four of them were stunned.
Feng Er dragged Shiro crookedly, scolding and beating, Xu Ya and Dongmei came over when they heard the sound, and they both stepped forward to protect Shiro. Erlang also hurriedly walked over, rescued his younger brother, and protected himself behind him.
Xu Miao walked over with San Lang, hugged Shiro in his arms to check, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, his clothes were torn and a few buttons were broken, his hair was messed up, the little guy had been stubborn and didn't cry, and when he saw San Lang and Xu Miao, he cried aggrievedly.
"Grandpa, what are you doing here, why are you still playing Shiro?" Erlang was reluctant, and looked at Feng Ercrooked with a slightly sullen face.
Feng Erwei heard his grandson's accusation, rolled his eyes fiercely, and said:
"What's the matter, I'm my grandfather, why can't I beat him? As long as your father and mother are alive, I should fight and fight, you know? ”
"What did Shiro do wrong, you hit him?" Jiro asked unceremoniously.
Xu Miao watched from the side, nodding in her heart. Erlang has indeed changed a lot in the past six months, and it seems that the tofu workshop is quite exercised.
Feng Ercrook obviously didn't expect Erlang to talk back, his grandson, who has always been honest, except for not squeaking, is muttering, but now it is obviously different, the clothes and dresses are different.
They live in the courtyard of the second entrance, and they are with Xu Miao's cheap girl every day, this is ...... has that little girl to support her, so dare to ask such a question? Seeing that Feng Er didn't reply for a long time, Erlang frowned and continued to ask:
"Grandpa, what did Shiro do wrong, why did you beat him?"
"I'll just hit it, what's the matter? You're suing me? Feng Erwei gave full play to the specialty of his nickname, and directly ignored the three-point talk.
Shiro leaned on Xu Miao's arms and said, "Just now...... I sent my third uncle home. Then I saw that opposite the door of our house, there were some chrome curls (that is, garbage), and I came back and swept the broom, and my grandfather came over......"
