Chapter 54: Lin Ruochu's Hongmen Banquet
Lin Wanxi was a little surprised by Chen Guihua's appearance, "Chen Niang, it's so late, is there anything wrong?" ”
"Actually, it's not a big deal, Ruochu said, because she delayed your business, so she wants me to talk to you, so I want you to go over for a meal and apologize."
After Chen Guifang checked that Lin Wanxi had no problems, she breathed a sigh of relief and told the purpose of coming over this time.
"At the same time, Chen Niang hasn't seen you for a long time, I want to hear how your marriage is arranged, if you need Chen Niang and your Lin Dad, we are happy to help."
Lin Wanxi looked at Chen Guifang with tears in her heart, because she knew that Chen Niang had actually secretly prepared a dowry for her.
In fact, they have always regarded her as their own daughter, as long as Lin Ruochu has her, she will also have a share.
Thinking of this, she pursed her lips and nodded, "Okay, you wait for me." ”
She turned around and ran back to the Educated Youth Center, and took out all the daily necessities and pork she had prepared before, as well as soy sauce, oyster sauce, and soy sauce packed in bamboo tubes.
Then, holding a small package wrapped in flower cloth, he came to Chen Guifang.
"Chen Niang, let's go."
Chen Guifang looked at the small package in Lin Wanxi's arms, a little puzzled, and before she could figure it out, her feet began to move forward.
In desperation, she smiled and sighed, "You, are you going to bring something to the house again?" ”
"No, some of the spices I made myself." Lin Wanxi knew that Chen Guifang didn't like her to spend money indiscriminately, so she planned to return to the Lin family and take it out again.
Unexpectedly, Chen Guifang had already guessed the contents of the package, so she had to smile and be coquettish.
The dirt roads in the countryside have no street lights, only flickering fireflies and dim moonlight.
Fortunately, the moonlight is bright tonight, so that pedestrians on the trail can see the road under their feet.
Chen Guifang walked home with Lin Wanxi in her arms, always worried about going back.
Her wayward daughter would have made a big fuss if she saw the package in her arms.
In the past, every time she made a fuss, she would be forced to come up with more things to appease this girl's emotions.
Thinking of this, her face became even more uneasy, and she sighed unconsciously.
Lin Wanxi, who heard the sigh, turned her head curiously to look over, and after finding that Chen Guifang's face was haggard and sullen, she roughly guessed the reason for her uneasiness.
"Chen Niang, are you worried that Ruochu will embarrass me?"
"Yes, if this child is too difficult to discipline, I'm afraid that she will pester you after she knows that you have good things."
Chen Guifang is worried about this, in the past, as soon as there was something good, this dead girl would make a fuss at home.
I knew that she was embarrassed, so I took out all the good things, which made this dead girl stop making noise.
However, it's different now, I'm sorry to get married, and of course I have to keep the good things for myself and bring them into my in-law's house later.
After confirming her thoughts, Lin Wanxi smiled slightly, put her arms around Chen Guifang's shoulders, and comforted her.
"Chen Niang, don't worry, people will always grow up, maybe she will get better after getting married?"
This sentence made Chen Guifang fall into deep thought, and she agreed with Lin Haoxi's thoughts very much.
"You're right, you have to find her an in-law to discipline her well."
Lin smiled but didn't say anything when he looked at Chen Guifang, and rushed to Lin's house with her.
As a result, when he was about to reach the Lin family, he heard the voices of Lin Ruochu and Song Guochao.
At this time, Song Guochao was hiding in the backyard of the Lin family, explaining what Lin Ruochu was about to do.
"Remember, no matter what, let Lin Haoxi drink the water with ingredients, and if you mess it up, don't come to me."
"Guochao, what are you going to do after she faints?"
Song Guochao looked at Lin Ruochu, who was thin and sallow in face, glared at her with some annoyance, and retorted impatiently.
"You don't care about the rest of the matter."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and got into the grass without waiting for Lin Ruochu to reply.
Lin Ruochu, who stayed in place, lowered his head, held a packet of medicinal powder in his hand, pondered for a while, and turned back to the hall angrily.
At this time, Chen Guifang pulled Lin Yuxi back to Lin's house.
After Lin Yuxi entered the courtyard, he pretended to be curious and glanced at the house, and asked Chen Guifang with a smile.
"Chen Niang, where is Dad Lin?"
"He went to repair the dam, and he won't be back until two days."
In order to make the hall brighter, Chen Guifang did not walk towards the hall, but returned to the room.
Seeing this, Lin Haoxi hurriedly handed the package in his hand to Chen Guifang, "Chen Niang, you put this in the house." ”
When Chen Guifang, who heard the shout, turned around, she saw the package in Lin Xixi's hand and was a little embarrassed.
"Ruochu would be angry if he knew that I was secretly hiding these good things."
"If you don't hide it secretly, take all the good things away from her, what will you take out to give her a wedding when she gets married in the future?"
Lin Yixi knew that Chen Guifang would be afraid of Lin Ruochu, so he put the package in his hand and reminded her in a low voice.
Chen Guifang, who was holding the package, frowned slightly after listening to Lin Xixi's words, and looked at the figure projected on the window of the hall.
After a while, as if he had made a decision, he clenched his package and turned to enter the room.
After hiding the package, she walked out of the room, holding a candle in one hand and holding Lin Haoxi's hand in the other.
"Let's go, try the bacon made by Chen Niang."
Lin Haoxi nodded happily and followed Chen Guifang into the hall together.
After entering the hall, Chen Guifang placed the candles on the unpainted table, picked up a match and lit one of them.
At this moment, Lin Ruochu walked out of the back room of the hall and found Chen Guifang lighting candles.
There was also a large pile of new candles on the table, and she was instantly annoyed, and quickly stepped forward and snatched the candle from her hand.
"Isn't there already a candle lit in the house? Why do you have to take it out, are you sick? ”
In the face of Lin Ruochu's accusation, Chen Guifang was a little caught off guard, her face was embarrassed, and she hurriedly explained, "There are guests at home, and one candle is not enough." ”
"We are eating, why is one not enough? Do you want to make a hot pot with candles? Lin Ruochu didn't care what Chen Guifang said, he directly put the candle in his trouser pocket and sat on the bench angrily.
Chen Guifang didn't want Lin Ruochu to quarrel, so she had to sigh and swallow her grievances, lower her head and stop talking.
Lin Haoxi, who entered the hall, did not speak the whole time, but was analyzing the food on the table.
It was said that Lin Ruochu invited him to eat, and judging from the dishes on the table, there were fish and meat, which was more abundant than the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
Obviously, Chen Guifang was worried that she would not be able to eat enough, so she deliberately took out all the inventory at the bottom of the box at home and cooked it.
From the analysis of the dialogue between Song Guochao and Lin Ruochu, she didn't add extra things to the meal, as long as she didn't drink the water handed over by Lin Ruochu, she wouldn't fall into the trap.
Thinking of this, she squeezed out a smile and comforted Chen Guifang, "Chen Niang, it's better to make the room dark, so that I dare to eat meat." ”
