Chapter Forty-Eight: Familiarity

Wang Xiao saw that everyone was very excited, and said with a smile:

"It seems that our pigsty and chickens and ducks will be built quickly, and we will start in the afternoon, and the adobe will be almost done."

"Okay, I'm almost done with my work, and I can type out the window and door frames in the afternoon."

When Wang Jing talks about his "professionalism" now, he seems quite confident.

"Yes, you can't do it without a door, you just knock out the door and window frames, I'll go to grandpa and let them help."

Wang Xiao offered to trouble his grandfather this time, and Liu Wan was very comforted when he listened.

In this kind of primitive rural life, it is impossible to rely on one's own family to do everything alone, everyone has to help each other.

Wang Xiao has always been a little reserved in the past, and people are not very open, but now his performance is completely different.

Liu Wan felt that Wang Xiao had seen the world because of it.

Also, for the little people in a village, being able to do business with the housekeeper of the county order and walking around in front of the county order's house is an opportunity for Wang Xiao to soar in knowledge and vision.

With such an experience, the spirit of the whole person is different.

With pigs and chickens and ducks, everyone is energetic and energetic.

Liu Wan asked Wang Xiao to take out the mung bean cake given by Steward Liu and share it with everyone, just one piece per person.

It was the first time for the children to eat such delicate pastries, and their eyes were sewn with happiness.

Liu Wan tasted it, and felt that it was not enough for ears and ears, sweet and sweet, and she didn't want to eat it, so she let Wang Li and Wang Lian eat half of it.

Wang Xiao said that this was the pastry of the county commander's family, and everyone else was stunned.

Wu Hui saw that Xianggong was able to know the people of the county order's family, and was given pastries, and couldn't help but look at Xianggong with admiration.

After eating the pastries, she had to work in the afternoon, and Liu Wan took the opportunity to say that if she did a big job, she would have to eat well and be full, so in the afternoon she would make back to the pot and let Xiaohui cook rice.

Liu Wan bought 5 catties of pork belly and 20 catties of brown rice this time.

Now that the weather is still cold, although the pork belly can be saved, it will spoil for a maximum of three days, and it will spoil no matter how long it takes.

So Liu Wan first steamed the pork belly in the pot, let it cool, and then cut about two catties of meat, ready to fry the meat back in the pot.

The remaining three catties of meat were put into an earthen bowl and put into a cupboard with a door, for fear of being plagued by rats.

Liu Wan washed the ten catties of bones bought back for 10 yuan, blanched them, put them in a pot to boil the soup, boiled them over high heat first, and then boiled them slowly over low heat, and in less than two quarters of an hour, the fragrance of meat and bones wafted out.

Seeing that her mother-in-law was so sophisticated in cooking, and her face was beautiful, Wu Hui was heartbroken as usual.

After making friends with Wang Xiao, Wu Hui felt that sooner or later she would have to complete the separation of the family, otherwise it would be too outrageous to follow her mother-in-law now.

There are also two uncles in the family who have to say goodbye immediately, and there are two underage children, how much does it cost to raise these two children as long as they are adults?

Wang Yi and Wang Jing have not yet married a daughter-in-law, and now the bride price for marrying a daughter-in-law is rising, and I heard that it will cost at least 20 taels of silver to succeed...... Two people are not allowed 40 taels of silver?

The Wang family's house is not enough to live in now, there are only 4 rooms, Liu Wan lives in one by herself, the couple lives in one, Wang Jing and Wang Yi live in one, and the two small ones live in one, so there is no extra vacancy.

If you marry a daughter-in-law, Wang Jing and Wang Yi will need at least one room each, where is there enough to live? I will definitely have to build a new house again.

When she thought of these bottomless expenses, Wu Hui felt that her head was big.

Although my mother-in-law has been kind to them recently, she only knows how to cook food all day long.

In Wu Hui's view, Liu Wan's actions are undoubtedly to curry favor.

It is estimated that Wang Dazhi is gone, so he must change his attitude and give his children some sweetness to have a backer.

The father-in-law is gone, if Liu Wan no longer gathers the hearts of her children, who will she rely on in the future?

A widow, in the village, if the sons leave her alone, will end up with no one to rely on, and she will be left alone.

Wu Hui doesn't look old, but she grew up in the countryside since she was a child, and she has seen a lot of this kind of thing, so she doesn't know how far she has thought about it.

As soon as she heard that her mother-in-law was going to make meat in the pot, Wu Hui felt uncomfortable, and always felt as if she was eating her meat.

Liu Wan also felt that Wu Hui was a little strange recently, always absent-minded, and even burned a stove that almost led the firewood by the stove.

This state is quite familiar to Liu Wan.

In the past, her subordinates found a home, had no intention of staying, and chose the opportunity to resign, which is the state.

No, you have to bang and bang.

Although I don't know what Wu Hui is thinking in her heart, it is always something that is not good for the family.

Liu Wan is still able to understand Wu Hui's current state.

Wu Hui is pregnant, and her psychology and physiology will undergo drastic changes, and she may make unexpected moves due to the influence of hormones.

Wu Hui's current state has such signs.

When she is free, she has to have a good relationship with Wu Hui and make friends.

Liu Wan found that once she wanted to make a new delicacy, the system's gourmet task would be triggered, and this time the system's task was naturally to make a pot of fragrant back to the pot.

Having tasted the joy of learning to cook, Liu Wan now accepts the task without hesitation every time.

You can not only learn the skills of cooking, but also earn a survival point, why not?

Without everyone noticing, Liu Wan had already learned the good art of stir-frying the meat in the free practice space.

Liu Wan's knife skills are particularly perfect now, and the meat is cut into slices with an average of two millimeters, and if someone takes a ruler to measure, they will be surprised to find that each slice of meat is the same thickness.

After blanching, the pork belly slices are thinly sliced, and the slices appear crystal clear, and they look very attractive before they are fried.

The children only saw her kitchen knife flying, a "do-do" sound on the board, and in the blink of an eye, the pork belly had been cut.

"Mother, you are really good at cutting meat, better than the chef in the restaurant."

Wang Jing walked by casually and couldn't help but boast.

"Ha, I'll tell you a story about an oil seller."

Liu Wan also took the opportunity to educate.

So she told the children the story of the oil seller that everyone is familiar with in modern society.

"What? Can the oil seller pour the oil into the gourd without staining the copper coin? ”

Wang Jing listened and expressed disbelief.

"It's right if you don't believe it, and the onlookers also asked the oil seller, why can he achieve such a state?

The oil seller said: There is no other, but his hands are familiar. ”

Liu Wan's words fell on Wang Jing's ears, but when she heard it, she seemed to be awakened by something, and her brain exploded instantly.

No other, but familiar hands!

Wang Jing unconsciously read this sentence, as if he had realized something.

Liu Wan grinned, knowing that this kid was perceptive.

She said that this story was to take the opportunity to beat him, and that he could not fall behind in learning the carpenter's trade, and that he could not give up on himself because Carpenter Wang did not accept him as an apprentice.

Sure enough, Wang Jing was greatly touched.
