Chapter 253: The Beginning of Busyness
When Han Li was busy filtering the wine at home, the Yun family sisters were already sitting on the kang of Hao Hongmin's house, and the four of them were chatting happily at this time, but they didn't expect Wu Lili and Jinmen Meng Zaihong to come.
"Sister Hongmin and Sister Xiuying, we are here, let's continue to play cards today, the two comrades are also here."
Wu Lili had stubbornly followed Han Li when she got married last time, and the Yun family sisters were not easy to show their faces to others now, so they responded with a smile.
"We haven't been here for long."
For this somewhat embarrassing situation in front of them, Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying, as the hosts, were also very helpless, and they stood with the Yun family sisters when the two sides clashed.
But Wu Lili has been sticking to this side since then, they can't offend each other to death because of other people's affairs, but if it weren't for the situation like today, if it weren't for the fact that Mao Dong had already experienced it now, not to mention that Meng Zaihong, a new intellectual, came over today, the two of them could only do their best to be polite, as for Wu Lili in the future, if they still fought against Han Li and them, the two of them were not stupid, and naturally knew that their butts should sit over there.
"Lili, Zaihong, you two hurry up and sit on the kang, it's cold down there."
"What are you talking about?"
"Hehe, it's nothing but some trivial things in life, and the recent pregnancy of a widow in Xiaohe Village."
"That's the incident, I was also surprised when I heard Sister Xiuying say it yesterday, I didn't expect that something would often happen in Xiaohe Village."
The arrival of the two of them made the atmosphere in the room drop directly, and even the topic of conversation was much stiffer.
Wu Lili didn't seem to notice it at all, and took the initiative to take over the topic of the sisters several times.
Although Yun Jingjing felt a little helpless, Wu Lili had given a salute when Han Li got married, and now it was a bit inappropriate for someone to drop her sleeves and leave as soon as she came.
After everyone chatted awkwardly for a while, the Yun family sisters looked at each other and said that they still had something to do at home and left.
Hao Hongmin sent them to the door of the house and was stopped by the sisters, but as soon as they walked out of the street, Yun Yingying muttered.
"What does that Wu Lili mean? Knowing that we didn't want to see her, she continued to talk about us every time. ”
"Does it matter what Wu Lili means? She doesn't come to provoke our love, anyway, we just have it in our hearts. ”
"That's right, but I still don't like her like that."
"The snow seems to be getting heavier and heavier, so let's hurry home."
As soon as the two sisters returned home, they smelled a strong aroma of fruit wine, and Yun Yingying sniffed hard.
"Brother Li, this taste.."
When Han Li saw Yun Yingying's appearance, he immediately said in a very smug tone.
"Yes, it's all made from grapes that I have carefully selected."
"It smells really good, Brother Li, you go and take a break, let's do this."
"Okay, then I'll go and see how the mutton is thawed."
Next, the two sisters took over the errand of filtering wine, and Han Li went directly to the health room to process the mutton.
He Mi is also doing the work of thawing mutton at home, but her spirit has not been very concentrated today.
Although Qi Zhaodi didn't know what was going on, she pulled He Mi to the kang and made the mutton outside.
.
Wu Lili also knew that tomorrow would be the winter solstice at Hao Hongmin's house at this time, so she thought about her current family background and planned to treat herself with a good meal tomorrow.
Meng Zaihong didn't speak when she heard the news, because several women from the Educated Youth Institute had already said this when they were chatting on the kang, and at first everyone planned to make a dumpling meal for the festival, but there was a disagreement on the final distribution of materials, so in the end they had to give up.
However, it was a pure coincidence that Meng Zaihong came to Hao Hongmin's house with Wu Lili today, and she came here for other things. That was during this time, she heard that Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying were both southerners and liked to eat fish, so she planned to call the two of them to go winter fishing together.
Meng Zaihong has lived on the side of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal since he was a child, not only was he the champion in the swimming activities held in Tianjin for two consecutive years to commemorate the commander's swimming in the Yangtze River, but he was also a good hand at catching fish and shrimp at home, let alone winter fishing.
In Meng Zaihong's mind, the two southern girls should not be much worse than their own water sex and fishing skills, which is one of the reasons why she looked for Hao Hongmin.
The other is that after catching the fish, it is more convenient to handle or eat it at Hao Hongmin's house, and after the two sides have a good relationship, she can also put the pickled and dried fish in their house.
Originally, it was more appropriate for Meng Zaihong to find Zhang Shulan and Hou Yuhua who came together, but after she didn't agree to buy the Yun sisters' house together, the two sides were a little unhappy, and the two people basically hadn't had much contact after they moved out, so she put this idea on Hao Hongmin and them.
As for Wu Lili, Meng Zaihong didn't think about it at all now, although she often came to chat with her, but the superiority that the other party showed from time to time made her very uncomfortable.
Meng Zaihong really regrets it now, why didn't she promise Hou Yuhua to buy the Yun sisters' house together?
I might be nervous for a long time, but at least I avoided the situation where I can't do anything I want to.
Meng Zaihong kept draining Wu Lili, and only then did she tell Hao Hongmin about her proposal.
Who knew that Hao Hongmei and Yang Xiuying hesitated after hearing it, and then Hao Hongmin told her what she thought.
"No matter how red it is, let's not talk about whether we can chisel the ice surface, the key is that there are often villagers and children playing on the river near Shanghe Village, if we chisel the ice and what happens, no one can afford it, if you want to fish in this season, you have to go far downstream, and our little girls in the wilderness have no safety guarantee at all."
Yang Xiuying also interjected at this time: "No matter how popular you are, you don't think that the surroundings are as safe as Shanghe Village, right?" Then do you think about why Xiaohe Village keeps having accidents, and is the widow's thing really voluntary? You know, sometimes it's not just wild animals that can harm people. ”
Meng Zaihong was obviously frightened by the words of the two of them, and she didn't know what to say to you for a while, but Hao Hongmin's voice turned around and said almost to herself.
"Xiuying, how about calling Han Li when we go winter fishing? Will he accompany us? ”
"Sister Hongmin, what is there to think about, Han Li will definitely agree, if he doesn't agree, I will go and talk to Sister Yun, then he will follow for the safety of his wife."
"Xiuying, I want to eat fish, let's find a way to go fishing when I'm gone."
*
Yun Jingjing made two kinds of hairtail fish tonight, braised and stewed, and also stewed some soaked mushrooms with a little pork.
When stewing mushrooms, a circle of small flower rolls with two mixtures of noodles is pasted around the iron pot, which is the method of sticking the cake and stewing vegetables under the cake after coming here.
She also replaced the brazier with fresh charcoal, and then boiled a pot of rice soup on it, so that the temperature in the room also went up, and everyone had soup to drink in the evening.
Han Li ate the hairtail fish that he had never forgotten, and the little flower roll absorbed the soup of the stew, and it was also very enjoyable to eat, in short, he was quite comfortable eating this meal.
After eating, Han Li dressed up and went out to walk the dog, and the two sisters began to prepare the dumpling filling for tomorrow at home.
However, the mutton and pork had already been chopped up by Han Li, and they only needed to add some necessary ingredients to it, such as green onions, minced ginger, and the like, and stir it evenly.
By the time Han Li came back from walking his dog, the two sisters had already finished it, and it was said that they should follow the previous process.
But Yun Yingying was worried about getting up early tomorrow to make dumplings, so that night, this situation caused Yun Jingjing to sleep alone with the quilt.
On the winter solstice the next day, Han Li had just helped the two sisters press the quilt and go out, and the two sisters opened their eyes almost at the same time.
Then a busy morning began, and the two sisters quickly cleaned up the room and began to meet with themselves.
Of course, Yun Jingjing didn't care about the shot of getting up early every day, and she looked like she was in a hurry.
This made Han Li feel a little nostalgic, but when he thought that he wouldn't have to hide it from tonight, his spirit immediately became excited, and even the spring breeze and rain he practiced today were extremely smooth.
Today's dumplings are not only filled with mutton according to the custom, but also with sauerkraut and pork filling that Han Li specially requested.
Since the two sisters had prepared earlier, Han Li's dumplings had been eaten early.
But he didn't plan to do anything today, just chatting with his wife and sister-in-law on the kang.
For example, let's talk about some old sayings in Sijiu City, or folk songs in the new province, and similar situations in various places.
However, their chat today was not so stable, first of all, Aunt Zhang brought a large lid of dumplings over.
He also said that he knew that Han Li had a lot of family, so he deliberately brought some more.
Originally, Aunt Zhang put down the dumplings and was about to leave, but when Han Li asked Yun Yingying to hold the other party to speak, Yun Jingjing hurriedly filled a pot of dumplings stuffed with sauerkraut and pork.
As a result, the three of them didn't say that it was still snowing, and they had a long time pulling in the yard.
This kind of tugging between women Han Li was not suitable for stepping forward, he just gave verbal support while smiling and watching from the sidelines.
Because the incident happened relatively suddenly, the two sisters did not wear gloves or scarves, and when they finally sent Aunt Zhang back to the house, the ears and hands of the two sisters were frozen red, and their clothes became crooked in the pulling just now.
Han Li hurriedly made two cups of hot tea for his wife and sister-in-law, but today's situation was not over here, when the two sisters had just recovered, He Mi's voice came from the courtyard.
