"Aunt Yuan, Aunt Yuan, are you at home?"

"Here, Wu Wen's family, come in, the door is not closed." An old lady in her sixties walked out, talking as she walked.

"This little chick is really the same every day, this time there are twenty-six, all, one is not less."

Hearing this, Wen Yan, who walked into the courtyard, immediately answered and said, "Aunt Yuan, you are really powerful. Auntie, this is the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, my sister-in-law Guo Xiaoxiao, I want to find my aunt to exchange a few chicks. ”

"Oh? The Xiao family? The Xiao family who just moved in? ”

"Yes. Hello Aunt Yuan, I'm Guo Xiaoxiao, I want to exchange a few chickens with my aunt. ”

Aunt Yuan turned her head to look at it, looked at it carefully, and then said loudly: "There are chicken cubs, but the time is too short, and it will take a while." You need a few, I'll keep them for you. ”

"Six, I'm in trouble with Aunt Yuan. It's just that I just got married, and I don't have much money in the family, so I exchange the fabric with you, can I do it? ”

When he said this, Guo Xiaoxiao's expression was very serious.

For the old lady in front of her, Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel a trace of respect in her heart.

She was curious, but she trusted her instincts more, this old lady was not ordinary.

"Fabric? Cheng, when the chickens are older, I'll send them to you. ”

"Don't bother Auntie, I'll do it once."

"Okay, I'll let you know when the time comes." With that, he waved his hand, and walked into the house with his little feet again.

Seeing this, Wen Yan smiled, walked out of the courtyard with Guo Xiaoxiao, and explained in a low voice: "Sister, Aunt Yuan is actually very good, don't mind." ”

"Sister-in-law, how could it be. How long has Aunt Yuan been in our village? ”

Wen Yan glanced back at the courtyard of the Yuan family again, shook her head and said, "I don't know." Some people say it's been thirty or forty years, some people say it's been fifty years, and I'm afraid only Aunt Yuan knows how many years. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao nodded, took back the gaze that fell on the courtyard of the Yuan family, and couldn't help muttering in his heart.

This old lady, you have to pay attention to yourself.

It seems that the people in this village need to be familiar with it themselves...

When she got home, Guo Xiaoxiao looked at the two little girls, and then took out the wooden basin with the fish in the stove, and killed the fish with her hands and feet.

Xiao Ziqing said with great discernment: "Stepmother, I'll go catch pickles and make fish to eat in a while." ”

Xiao Si nodded his little head, opened his eyes wide and said, "Well, there are also mushrooms, and the fish made by my mother is delicious." ”

Hearing this, Guo Xiaoxiao stopped what she was doing, turned her head to look at the busy sisters and smiled: "Xiaosi is really a snack." ”

"Mother, the fourth brother is not, the second brother is a snack."

Looking at the little girl's serious appearance, Guo Xiaoxiao and Xiao Ziqing both laughed.

"Okay, okay, our little four is not a snack, hurry up and take out the pickles and mushrooms with your third sister, and my mother will make fish for you to eat in a while."

"Uh-huh."

"Little four, you said that the second brother is a snack, aren't you afraid that the second brother will find out and beat you?"

"Third sister, the second brother won't beat the fourth, the second brother hurts the fourth."

As soon as she finished speaking, the little girl was picked up, and a voice came from above her head.

"Yes, the second brother won't beat the fourth. The second brother took Xiaosi to catch pickles and get mushrooms, okay? ”

Hearing the voice, the little girl immediately reached out to cover her mouth, and after a second of pause, she hugged Xiao Ziqing's neck and said, "Ah! Second brother, you're back. What about the big brother? ”

"I only remember my eldest brother now, oh, the fungus is here, let your second brother help your stepmother cook."

Guo Xiaoxiao, who had already dealt with the fish, was also a lot happier when he saw this scene.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard the voice of the iron egg.

"Aunt Xiaoxiao, my mother asked me to send you some vegetables, and my mother also said that I will send you in a few days." As he spoke, he put the basket at the gate of the courtyard and ran away as soon as he smoked.

Looking at the basket at the gate of the courtyard, and then at the iron egg that ran away, Guo Xiaoxiao smiled and shook his head, "Ziyang, bring the basket to the stove room, and send a bowl of fish to your Aunt Wen'er's house in a while." ”

"Okay."

in the stove room.

Guo Xiaoxiao poured some oil on the fish, then put the ginger and shallots into the pot, and then put the whole fish in, and the sound sounded one after another.

Suddenly, the smell of fish with the fragrance of green onions wafted in the stove room, which made the four little Meng swallow saliva.

The fish was turned over and fried for a while, then a scoop of water was added to the pot, green onions, garlic and a little sauce, then mushrooms were added, a little salt was sprinkled, and a gentle push was given.

In the next second, I picked up the noodles that had been awakened on the side, kneaded them into cakes, and pasted them close to the soup in the pot.

After a while, the cake was ready and the fish was cooked.

"Ziyang, Ziqing, you send the fish to your Aunt Wen'er's house and the village chief's grandfather's house, go and come back quickly."

"Okay."

After the brothers went out with a basket, Guo Xiaoxiao put the fish in the pot in the pot, put the cakes into the basket, and then fried a cabbage, and then gave up.

After a while, Xiao Ziqing walked in with a basket, "Stepmother, Grandma Qin gave some cabbage and capers. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ziyang grinned and said, "Aunt Wen also wants to bring me vegetables, I didn't ask for it, I ran away after giving the basket to Bai Yan." Hey..."

"Well, hurry up and wash your hands, and sit down to eat."

"Uh-huh."

The family here eats a happy and refreshing meal.

At the village chief's house, the family looked at the whole fish in the big bowl, the saliva secretion in their mouths was vigorous, and the three children looked at Qin Yulan with blank eyes, which was simply unrecognizable.

Wu Tangzhi looked at the three grandchildren, and then looked at the three sons, "Sit down, I have something to say to you after dinner." ”

"Hey."

After a gust of wind and clouds, there was not even a drop of soup left in the bowl of fish, and it was directly pulled clean by Wu Tangzhi's second son with a bun.

Hall.

"Dad, what's the matter?"

"That's it, Dad, what's the matter, just say, we'll all listen."

Wu Tangzhi swept them one by one, and then said: "The daughter-in-law of the Xiao family wants to rent out the two acres of land in the family today, and the rent is thirty percent of the harvest. Although it is not a major drought now, because various places have been more or less affected, tax revenues have also been reduced a lot. ”

"Your mother and I think we can rent it, now I will ask you to see what you think."

Wu Nianwen, the boss of the Wu family, immediately said loudly: "Dad, what do you have in mind, rent, of course rent." ”

"Yes, Daddy. Now that we rent it, we can still plant a crop. ”

"Dad, rent. Our family is a strong laborer, and it is only two acres of land, which is not a problem. ”

Seeing that the three sons all said that they would rent it, Wu Tangzhi glanced at his daughter-in-law, Qin Yulan understood, and fell on the two daughters-in-law, "The eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, what do you think?" ”

"If there were two more acres of land, there would be more things than they are now, and you can talk about it."

The second daughter-in-law, Chen Lianhua, looked at her sister-in-law silently, snorted coldly in her heart, and then said, "Mother, my daughter-in-law thinks it's good to rent it." ”

"The daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, the daughter-in-law has seen it, it is a cool one, but after all, she is a young lady of the official family, where do you know how to farm. She said that renting 30% of the harvest every year is a good thing for us, so let's not miss it. ”
