Chapter Seventy-Eight: River Prawns
"No thanks." Looking at Sister Yuan'er's well-behaved little appearance, Mei Niang smiled, "This is the red dates that were newly picked from the trees in my yard, but they are sweet, you can taste them." ”
After Mei Niang finished speaking, Sister Yuan pinched a red date with her little hand and sent it to her mouth to take a bite, after eating, she only felt that it was crispy and sweet.
"How? Is it delicious? Seeing that Sister Yuan finished eating, Mei Niang asked with a smile.
"It's delicious." Sister Yuan nodded her little head, took a red date and handed it to Gu Jiujiu, "Sister, you can eat one too, it's so sweet." ”
Gu Jiujiu took the red dates from Sister Yuan'er's hand and ate them, and beckoned Mei Niang to sit in the house with a smile.
Walking to the hall, after Mei Niang sat down, she gave the basket in her hand to Gu Jiujiu, "Xiao Jiu, these are fresh river shrimp, my man only caught them in the river yesterday, you can keep them, fry them at night, cook soup and eat them." ”
Gu Jiujiu looked at the vegetable basket in front of him, and saw that in addition to the small river shrimp in the basket, there were also a lot of big red dates.
The village where Mei Niang married has many rivers, and there are several big rivers in front of their homes, and there are a lot of fish and shrimp in the river. In a few moments, you'll be caught with a basket full.
Take it back and eat it, and you can also get it fishy.
Every time Mei Niang goes back to her parents' house, in addition to bringing some river shrimp to her family, she always sends some to Gu Jiujiu's family.
Yan washed the dishes and chopsticks and came out of the stove room, and when he saw Mei Niang coming, he hurriedly made coarse tea and took some of the remaining dried meat from the house for her to eat.
Mei Niang had never eaten dried meat, looking at the pieces of dried meat in the porcelain plate, she couldn't help but look at Gu Jiujiu and said, "Xiao Jiu, what is this?" ”
"Preserved meat." Gu Jiujiu smiled, "It's delicious, Mei Niang, can you try it?" ”
Mei Niang glanced at Gu Jiujiu, then tentatively took one and tasted it, "Xiao Jiu, this jerky is delicious." ”
"If you like, I'll have some more, and when you go back, I'll wrap it in oiled paper for you to take back, how about it?" Gu Jiujiu saw that Mei Niang liked to eat this dried meat, so he decided to give her the rest of the dried meat.
"No, I'll just taste it." Mei Niang was a little embarrassed to shirk, she knew that the price of this dried meat was definitely not cheap.
"Mei Niang, Xiao Jiu gives it to you, you can accept it!" Yan looked at Mei Niang and said with a smile: "You took so many river shrimp and jujubes for us, we accepted them all, we gave you dried meat, you should also accept ours, do you say no?" ”
"This, ······?" Seeing Yan say this, Mei Niang hesitated for a moment and stopped refusing.
Gu Jiujiu accompanied Mei Niang to talk for a while, knowing that Mei Niang came back from her husband's house this time because her sister-in-law was about to give birth, she came back to take a look, and by the way, she brought some small cloth shirts and shoes for her sister-in-law.
Mei Niang had to rush back to her husband's house today, she didn't dare to delay more, and after drinking half a cup of tea, she said goodbye to Gu Jiujiu and prepared to leave.
Seeing that Mei Niang was leaving, Gu Jiujiu wrapped the rest of the dried meat and asked her to take it back to eat.
Mei Niang took the dried meat, thanked her, and then walked out of the courtyard.
