Chapter 31: The Quail
In about an hour, a few men finally repaired the chicken pen, enlarged it again, and separated the chickens from the quail in the middle.
"Mother, you see that there are so many quail eggs, can I cook a few at night to replenish Xiaobao's body."
Coming out of the chicken pen, Li Yumei immediately started the idea of quail eggs, Zhang didn't know what she thought, and her face immediately turned cold: "This quail egg was discovered by Shu'er, and Shu'er didn't say anything yet, you started to worry about it?" ”
"Mother, what you said, didn't I ask, besides, there are so many quails, don't you worry that there will be no quail eggs in the future?"
Li Yumei smiled awkwardly, in a flattering tone, Zhang didn't answer her words, but turned his head to look at Ye Shu'er and asked, "Shu'er, do you want to eat quail eggs?" Mother will do it for you at night. ”
"Mother, Xiaobao is small, let's give Xiaobao something to eat."
Ye Shu'er thought about it and said, and cast a kind look at Li Yumei as she spoke, who expected that Li Yumei didn't appreciate it at all, she just felt that she was still showing off.
"There are so many quail eggs, Xiaobao will eat a few at most, and he can't finish it."
"Mother, I want to eat quail eggs too."
Zhang Shi was kind to Ye Shu'er, and Xue Zhi'an immediately said when he heard it.
"Okay, then I'll add a dish tonight."
After Zhang finished speaking, he took the quail eggs to the kitchen, and in order to celebrate, he specially caught two quails and killed them.
Li Yumei gave Zhang's hand on the side, although her face was very calm, but the vinegar jar in her heart had already turned over the river and the sea, why did Ye Shuer and Xue Zhi'an want to eat dumplings and quail eggs, and their own Xiaobao wanted to eat differently?
Her little treasure is the only male in the Xue family!
"Mother, I heard that our family caught a nest of quails, where is it?"
The women of the Xue family were huddled in the kitchen to cook, and as soon as Xue Lao and Xue Lao Er came back from the field in the evening, they ran to the kitchen, and they didn't even have time to put down their hoes.
"Shhhh
When Zhang heard Xue Laoer's voice, he immediately glared at him, the house is not soundproof, and she still specially instructed her not to say it outside, so as not to stumble behind the red-eyed people in the village.
"It's so nice to blame me, mother."
Xue Lao Er listened to Zhang's words, and his face immediately smiled.
"Okay, okay, hurry up and wash your hands and face, and I'll be ready to eat later."
"Okay, I'll go see the quail."
Xue Lao Er left the kitchen as he spoke.
In the evening, the family was happy, although Li Yumei was a little unhappy when she cooked, but there was not much to say about the quail meat in her mouth.
"Mother, this quail is so delicious, it's just too small."
Xue Lao Er took a bite of food into his mouth, and said vaguely while eating.
"It's good to have you eat, but you don't like this, our biggest hero Shu'er hasn't said anything yet, don't you still share the same amount?"
Zhang's angrily glanced at Xue Lao'er, if it weren't for Ye Shu'er's insistence on sharing the two quails, she would have prepared Ye Shu'er and Xue Zhi'an to have one each.
"Did you hear that, but you have to thank the lady, if it weren't for the fourth daughter-in-law, we wouldn't be able to eat this quail and quail eggs."
Li Yumei's anger in her heart had disappeared a lot, but when Zhang said this, she began to be yin and yang again, and Ye Shuer almost choked to death when she heard it.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Ye Shu'er's little face was flushed, and she ran to the side embarrassedly, for fear that saliva would spray into the food.
"Daughter-in-law, are you alright, drink saliva quickly."
Seeing this, Xue Zhi'an hurriedly handed Ye Shu'er a glass of water, and only then did he recover.
"If you don't speak, no one will treat you like a dumb person."
Zhang glared at Li Yumei fiercely, turned his head and gently patted Ye Shu'er's back and asked, "Shu'er, how do you feel, are you better?" ”
"Mother, I'm fine, I'm much better."
Ye Shuer wiped her mouth, a little embarrassed, how to say it in public is still a little unpopular.
"Don't take the words of the second daughter-in-law to heart, my mother will make quail for you tomorrow, just you and Zhi'an eat, I see who dares to gossip."
When the Zhang family said this, he glanced coldly at the dining table, and when the people of the Xue family heard that no one dared to say anything, they all ate with their heads bored.
"Mother, no, there are not many quails, they will be eaten quickly, and the nephews and nieces also have long bodies, so give them food."
Ye Shu'er calmed down for a moment, and then said to Zhang.
"It's still Shu'er sensible, it's okay, go back and pick up some quail eggs and hatch the little quails, eat one or two more that won't get in the way."
Zhang smiled and took Ye Shu'er's hand and sat back on the table, Xue Zhi'an immediately clapped his hands and said happily: "Great, there will be quails to eat tomorrow." ”
When Li Yumei heard this, her face sank again, and she quietly lifted Xue Er's second child with her foot.
"Daughter-in-law, what are you kicking me for?"
Xue Lao Er glanced at Li Yumei with some displeasure.
"Whoever kicked you, you came here yourself."
Li Yumei's face was embarrassed, and she glared at Xue Lao Er angrily.
"Okay, okay, you're all full, right, don't you stop eating."
Zhang glared at the two of them, and then the two ate quietly and didn't make a sound.
The next day, Ye Shu'er woke up early and called Xue Zhi'an up.
"Daughter-in-law, I haven't woken up yet, and I want to sleep a little longer."
"No, I said I would go to Zhao Xiaoni's house today, did you forget how you promised your mother yesterday?"
Ye Shu'er dragged Xue Zhi'an up, got dressed and washed.
"Knock knock!"
The two were cleaning up in the room, and suddenly there was a knock on the door outside, and then Zhang's voice came in: "Shu'er, are you up, my mother is in?" ”
"Mother, it's up."
Ye Shu'er hurriedly went to invite the Zhang family into the house, and the moment she opened the door, a cold wind blew in, and she immediately shivered.
"Mother, Zhi'an will wash up immediately, don't worry."
Ye Shuer thought that the Zhang family was in a hurry, so she came to urge the two to go out.
"Don't worry, don't worry, my mother came here to tell you, or I won't go to Zhao Xiaoni's house today, and call the second child to say it later, it's too windy outside, it's snowing, and the road is not easy to walk, don't fall on you and Zhi'an anymore."
Zhang sighed, after all, Xue Zhi'an's matter was very anxious, but in this bad weather, she didn't dare to go out rashly.
"Mother, if we wait for a while, maybe the sky will be clear, and it's not too late to see it then, so don't let the second brother suffer and run away."
Ye Shuer knew Zhang's mood at the moment, so she comforted and said.
"Okay, then listen to you, I'll go make breakfast, and you can sleep for a while."
After Zhang finished speaking, he left the room between the two, and Xue Zhian climbed back into bed directly when he saw this.
"Daughter-in-law, my mother said let's sleep a little longer, I'm so sleepy, I'm going to sleep."
Xue Zhi'an said that he got into the quilt directly with his clothes, where could Ye Shu'er still sleep, and shook her head helplessly to fold the quilt for Xue Zhi'an, and then went to the kitchen.
