The Li family did not affect the New Year's Festival of the two, and after burning incense, the two went to the nearby Lamerin.

Most of the yellow plum blossoms in the slope can smell the fragrance from a distance, Su Yan is still the first time to come here, and she is a little curious: "Why are there so many plum blossoms?" ”

Qin An took her hand and waited for her to stand firm before replying: "A few years ago, the village handed over money to plant it. ”

"If you can't sell any money, no one cares."

Hearing this, Su Yan pursed her lips and said incomprehensibly: "No one has been to the county magistrate for so many years?" ”

"No one goes, and the county seat can't get anywhere more than here."

Qin An shook his head, seeing that she liked plum blossoms, he raised his hand and folded a few and handed them to her.

Su Yan took it in her hand, sniffed it a few times, "Go home and put it in the earthen pot."

Then she thought of something, and said: "Fold a few more branches, go home and make pastries, it must be fragrant." ”

Hearing this, Qin An folded a large handful and held it in his hand, his eyes fell on the woman's face, and he pursed his lips, "Daughter-in-law, do you have no father?" ”

The daughter-in-law is very capable, so capable that sometimes she can see her own shadow.

Children who don't have a father can do anything.

Su Yan didn't expect him to say this suddenly, his expression was in a trance, and he quickly shook his head and said, "No, my father and mother died very early." ”

Qin An pursed his lips, he didn't know how his daughter-in-law lived a woman's life, it was definitely more difficult and tiring than him.

He said solemnly: "There will be me in the future." ”

Su Yan scratched his palm, and said with a nonchalant expression: "It's been nothing for a long time." ”

"Let's go, go home and make cakes, and we'll make more food in the evening."

"The first year of marriage."

"Xianggong, my feet are sore, you carry me."

The tall man immediately squatted on the ground, and she put her arms around his neck and leaned on his shoulder.

Qin An looked at her slightly sideways, smiled and said in a low voice, "Kiss me." ”

Su Yan approached him closely, and said with a smile: "Go around to the field and pull two radishes back." ”

……

The next day, Qin An went to the county town to run the village, and the owner of the money village made up a silver coin for them.

When I returned, it was already late at night.

Thinking that his daughter-in-law had already slept, he climbed into the courtyard wall, and after walking a few steps, he saw a fire in the hall.

The woman was sleepy and lying on the table, and the stove was burning with charcoal.

Rao is like this, and the night is also cold and stiff.

He strode in in distress and whispered, "Daughter-in-law? ”

As soon as the words fell, the woman raised her head, rubbed her eyes and said, "Climbed over the courtyard wall again?" Why don't you call me? ”

"Why don't you go into the house and sleep?"

Qin An was worried that her hands and feet were stiff, so he reached out to touch the back of her hand, and then squatted to take off her shoes, the soles of his feet were warm, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He said in a low voice, "Don't wait in the future, I know what I want to come back." After saying that, he bent down and picked her up into the house and lay down.

Su Yan didn't say anything, got up and went to the kitchen to bring out a bowl of hot rice, which was covered with smoked sausages and bacon, "If it's not enough, I'll cook dumplings for you to eat." ”

"I packed a hundred or so in the afternoon."

Qin An, who was in a hurry to go home, naturally didn't eat, and seeing that his daughter-in-law was worried about it, Rao is hands were stiff and too warm, so he took it and lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "You can eat some too." ”

"I ate, I ate when I was hungry just now, and the dishes were not washed." Su Yan motioned for him to eat quickly.

Qin An sat next to her, and after a while, he finished eating, he got up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, thought of something, and took out the silver money from his arms and gave it to her.

After that, I packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the kitchen, and at a glance I saw two large bowls of dough kneaded.

He pursed his lips, heard the footsteps behind him, tilted his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "I'll just go tomorrow." ”

"I don't want to estimate that the family is not at ease, the mutton bone soup has been stewed for more than an hour, and it will be enough to take it directly and continue to stew for half an hour."

When Su Yan said this, she took a bowl and scooped it out and handed it to him to drink, "The big bones of the black goat are more fragrant." ”

The two of them saw it when they went to the town to buy it a few days ago, so they bought the whole sheep skeleton.

Qin An took a big sip, "Well, there is a village that raises it, and I will buy one in a few days and come back." ”

"It's too much, and when the time comes, we'll see if there's anything for sale in the town."

"Okay, daughter-in-law, go sleep in the house, I'll be here in a moment."

"Okay."

Snow fell in the dark night......

Early in the morning, the road that was only shoveled yesterday has accumulated another layer, and the snowman at the gate of the courtyard is still standing round.

This will be a lantern, but still can't see the distance clearly, and the hazy snow and fog make the village quieter.

With a click, the lock of the gate fell, and in a few moments a carriage slowly left the village, leaving deep marks on the snowy road.

Occasionally, there were low voices of men and women on the road.

When the carriage entered the town, the sound of people busy could be heard, and it was so noisy that the whole town was lively.

"Hadron! There's a bad table here. ”

"Come on."

"I have a table at home, go to my house and carry it."

"I have it at home, too."

The uncle who greeted people at the door saw Su Yan and his family coming, and hurriedly said, "You guys are finally here, everyone is seated." After speaking, he was a little helpless.

His daughter-in-law went out and told people that she had invited the owner of the pimple shop to make food, and she came to guard it before dawn one by one, for fear that she would not be able to eat.

However, on weekdays, he is reluctant to eat pimple soup, and if he has to eat, he will naturally run fast.

"It's ready, and it's ready to eat in about a quarter of an hour."

After Su Yan finished speaking, she smiled and said, "Congratulations, uncle." ”

The uncle smiled and helped Qin An bring things into the kitchen, "The firewood has been raised, just cook it like this." ”

"Okay, set the bowl on the side." After Su Yan finished speaking, she began to wash her hands.

Many people came to the door curiously, "Brother Guo, your family has done a really good job this time." ”

The uncle's face was bright, and he smiled from ear to ear and said, "Just a son, naturally we have to do better." ”

"Sit down, you're full, eat well."

There are a lot of people in this family who help, and as soon as Su Yan cooks it, someone will help share it, and the last three hundred servings of dough are not enough.

It was impossible for the uncle to make people hungry, so he hurriedly went to buy a hundred catties of flour and came back, the mutton soup had been scooped up, and Su Yan had to use flour to make cakes.

This can also save the family some money, otherwise this breakfast will cost a few taels of silver.

When it was almost dawn when she was done, Su Yan was so tired that she was sweating profusely, but she didn't stay at other people's houses for long, "Uncle, you will be busy, don't count the silver money first, you are free in the afternoon, come to our shop." ”

The uncle nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, I will definitely marry you, you two have worked hard today." ”

"My relatives say your house tastes good."

After saying what he thought of, he quickly ran out and took most of the glutinous cakes to Qin An.

"Here, take it back and fry it and eat it."

Qin An didn't delay with him, and reached out to take it, "Thank you, then we'll go first." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand to pin the broken hair in the ear of the woman next to him.

Coming out of Guo's house, and almost around the corner, the tall rough man suddenly squatted on the ground, "Come up." ”

"I'm not tired."

"Why don't you get tired and move your feet?"

didn't wait for the woman to say anything, he directly picked her up, and said in a low and serious voice: "You have the strength to be honest, don't feel distressed." ”
