Xu Huan nodded, seeing that Li Jing didn't mean to let her in, she said knowingly: "Got it, I'll go back first." ”

"Wait!" Li Jing went out and took the door behind her, took out ten yuan for her, and said a few words to her before letting her go.

Seeing Xu Huan riding away, she turned around and entered the house, and there was an elegant man sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a newspaper and reading it.

Thinking of Xiang Yang's stubborn temper, Li Jing felt that Xu Huan had little hope of impressing him, but when he thought that he married a widow and went home, he was known by the people of the Lin family, and he didn't know how to laugh at himself, and he was bored again.

****

When Li Xiangyang was about to arrive at the door, he saw Lao Li standing at the door looking at the laneway, and said with a smile: "Old man, you are waiting for me!" ”

"What are you waiting for? You're not three years old! Lao Li waited for him to arrive, and sighed: "Your sister brought a girl to see me today, I think that girl is good, better than the ones you have seen before." ”

Li Xiangyang's face sank suddenly, pushed the bicycle into the yard, put the car away, turned his head to look at Lao Li and said: "Dad, I declare again, I already have a girlfriend, whether you agree or not, I will only ask Lin Lan to be my wife." ”

He felt that the women who came together with Li Jing were not fuel-efficient lamps, and even if Lin Lan rejected him in the future, he would not start a family with the woman introduced by Li Jing.

Lao Li looked at him seriously, knowing that it was useless to say more, so he blew his beard and glared at him: "You can ask for whatever you like, it's about Lao Tzu's!" With that, he went straight to the room and closed the door with a bang.

Li Xiangyang glanced at the closed door, shook his head, put the money bag into the room, and went out to the stove room.

Lao Li sat in the room for a while, came out to see him cooking in the stove room, walked to the door of the stove room and looked at him and said, "You really don't regret it?" ”

Li Xiangyang stood up, walked to the door and looked at him, and said solemnly: "Dad, I'm already in my twenties, not seventeen or eighteen years old, I act impulsively when my head is hot, I've been thinking about it for a long time, I know what I'm doing." ”

Lao Li looked at him for a while, walked to the stove and sat down, lowered his head and thought for a while: "You let me think about it for a few days." ”

He knows his son's temperament, but he can let him relent, agree to him marrying a widow with a child, he is really unwilling, and wait a few more days to see if the girl named Xu Huan can make him change his mind.

Lin Lan sent Li Xiangyang away and went to the backyard, where she saw Xiaodouzi squatting in front of a hen holding a nest, staring at her with big eyes: "Son, what are you doing here?" ”

Xiaodouzi pointed to the chickens in the chicken coop: "The grandmother said that they will not leave the chicken coop, and they are going to hatch the chicks." ”

Lin Lan saw the hen's nervous look: "Are there eggs in the chicken nest?" ”

Xiaodouzi looked up at her: "There are two." ”

Lin Lan couldn't laugh or cry: "You put it on it?" ”

"Hmmm! I just put two under its belly and wanted it to try. Xiaodouzi stood up and pulled Lin Lan, "Mom, will it hatch chicks?" ”

Lin Lan didn't know how to explain to him what a fertilized egg was, so she thought for a while and said, "Mom heard from my grandmother that the eggs that hatch chicks are different from ordinary ones, and you have to pick an egg with a small black spot in the egg for the chicken to hatch in order to hatch the chicks." ”

Little Bean's eyes widened: "That's the case! Then I'll take them out and see if there are any small black spots? ”

"Son, forget it this year, it's cold, and the hatched chicks are not easy to feed, so let your aunt stick a chicken feather into its nose, and it won't hold the nest."

Xiaodouzi looked at Lin Lan and thought for a while, and nodded: "Okay!" Wait until it is warm before letting it hatch the chicks. ”

"That's good!" Lin Lan rubbed his head, lifted the hen out of the coop, and found a chicken feather to carry the chicken to the back door.

She grabbed the chicken's neck, Lin Yuezhen inserted the chicken feathers into the chicken's nose horizontally, and the mother and son put the hen back into the bamboo forest and watched it flutter and run.

Before eating, Wang Zhixue came with a fish basket and said to Xiaodouzi with a smile: "Come and see, my eldest cousin has caught a lot of loaches!" ”

"I'll see!" Xiaodouzi looked into the fish basket and saw that there was half a basket of loaches inside, "That's a lot!" Cousin, where did you catch it? ”

Wang Zhixue said with a smile: "Someone else caught it, I bought a basket for three yuan, poured half of it and fried it for you to eat." ”

Lin Lan glanced at it and saw that they were all adults with thick thumbs: "You guys pick all the big ones here and send them here!" Otherwise, it would be difficult to find such a large and well-proportioned loach. ”

Wang Zhixue scratched his hair, "It's easy to find, there are many in the winter paddy fields." As he spoke, he poured the loaches into the bucket, "Uncle, you've killed them all, you can wash them." ”

"Okay, thank you, Zhixue." Lin Lan said and remembered Yang Lirong's matter, "Your mother has already given up the tofu stall to your aunt?" ”

Wang Zhixue nodded: "Hmm! At home, I am building a stove for roasting dried tofu, and tomorrow I will start roasting dried tofu. In the afternoon, my aunt came to my house and asked where the beans came from, but my mother didn't tell her the truth, but only asked someone to collect them. ”

He remembered that his mother said that his aunt was too good, and if she asked her to ask her grandfather to help buy beans, after a long time, no matter how close her relatives were, they would become enemies.

Lin Lan thought about it and understood Yang Liqun's concerns, and said: "I know, you talk to your aunt, and the provincial one is leaking." ”

"Hmm!" Wang Zhixue should get off and leave with the fish basket.

Xiaodouzi looked at the loaches in the bucket: "Mom, will you fry it now?" ”

"Good! You go to the grandmother's house, call Dandan and the grandmother over, and we will take half of it for frying and half for braising it. ”

"Hmmm! I'll go right away. Before Xiaodouzi finished speaking, he ran out, and Wangcai also ran behind.

Lin Lan cleaned the loach, cut off the head of the loach with Lin Yuezhen, cleaned it inside and out, and boiled hot water to scald the loach.

Divide the loach into two portions, one with green onion, ginger, pepper and salt, mix well and marinate.

Lin Yuezhen took some pickled ginger, pickled peppers, and carrots from the pickle jar and chopped them.

The loaches are fried in oil and put on a plate,

Leave the bottom oil in the pot, pour in the pickled ginger, pickled radish, garlic cloves, pickled pepper, stir-fry until fragrant, add bean paste, fry the red oil, add water to boil, pour in the loach and burn for a while, add sugar, a little white wine and simmer for a while.

After cooking, the loaches are served on a plate. Boil the soup over high heat, pour in sesame oil and pepper oil, add thin root and boil, add coriander and green onion leaves and stir-fry, shovel it up and pour it on the loach.

"It smells so good! I smell the watercress fish. Dandan and Douzi ran in.

Lin Lan looked back at the two of them with a smile: "Auntie's roasted loach is fragrant with fish!" What about the wife? ”
