Chapter 156: The Big Eater Is Coming
Xiao Wuya didn't know how to use a spoon, waited for Lin Xiaoman to feed with her mouth open, and sucked a mouthful of custard into her stomach. Sometimes when she feeds slowly, the little guy will open her mouth and scream, and Lin Xiaoman will deliberately tease her, it's so interesting to see her screaming in a hurry.
After feeding the little five girls, the little guy fell asleep after a while, lying on Lin Xiaoman's shoulder and his little head little by little.
Lin Xiaoman sent her to the kang in the house, and let the four grandmothers sitting on the kang in the house watch it, so as not to let people steal it again.
It is not easy to lock the door when the country holds a banquet, and if you are afraid that the items in the house will be lost, you will invite a trustworthy old man to sit in the house, so that you are not afraid that someone will dare to make a bad idea.
The fourth grandmother looked at Xiao Wuya very rarely, "Oh, such a rare baby, why is the family willing to sell it?" What a sin. ”
"But no, my aunt was almost killed by them, that is, I thought my aunt didn't give birth to a son, wanted to marry someone else, and was reluctant to give my aunt's dowry, my heart was dark."
Lin Xiaoman was also helpless, since she can remember, her father and mother have been very good to her, and even later there were two tigers, and her father and mother were the same as before, even if the two tigers did not have, she had to have them, and she never liked it because she was a daughter.
"This man, he has to accept his fate, and he doesn't like the five daughters that God gave him, so he has to do it. Now, all of them are gone, and they are still in prison. I heard someone say before, Tian Tian's ex-mother-in-law is gone? ”
Lin Xiaoman nodded, "Well, it was said that I was beaten twice on the board, and no one gave me winter clothes in prison, and I got chilblains, and the people of the previous year were gone." ”
"Well deserved! Let her do the damage, this time put her life into it. ”
Lin Xiaoman didn't want to talk more about He Tiantian's family affairs, and asked the fourth grandmother, "How is the milk tea selling these days?" Would you like to add a few more flavors? ”
The fourth grandmother shook her head, "Don't use it first, there are red bean milk tea and sweet potato milk tea in the workshop right now, and they are selling so well, I have to stop the sour plum soup, and after a while, it will sell slowly, and it will not be too late to add more." By the way, Xiaoman, yesterday I heard that there was a health center in the city, which also sells milk tea that is similar to what we sell, and the taste of that house is more than ours, and the sweet potatoes in it are sweeter than our sweet potatoes, and they are more fragrant than the sweet potatoes we use. ”
Lin Xiaoman guessed who was robbing the milk tea business after a little pondering.
Now the sweet potatoes here have only been planted by Hedong Village and Lu Jin, the varieties are almost the same, and the taste is almost the same, if anyone can grow sweeter than the sweet potatoes grown by themselves, I am afraid that there is only Xu Yuanru's space.
There is a space where you can grow herbs to make nourishing creams, and the vegetables you want to grow will taste better.
But when she has more and more valuable medicinal herbs to grow, why does she grow sweet potatoes to steal the business of the people around her? What else could it be other than coming at her?
Lin Xiaoman regretted why he had to help her treat her injuries that day, and he should have pressed the dart into it again.
Lin Xiaoman originally set five tables, one table of Lu Jin and the county government, one table of Lin Erhu's former classmates, one table of Xu Qiuliang and his brothers, and two tables of acquaintances in the village.
As a result, before the feast was opened, the older women were all on the kang in the house, and the younger women and children were sitting or standing in the house. The courtyard and the courtyard were crowded with the men of the village, and at a cursory glance, there must have been more than a dozen tables.
No matter how many gifts you take to the door, you can't let the guests come and not be able to eat, right?
Lin Xiaoman calculated that the ingredients prepared were definitely not enough, so he went to Lin Dawu and asked him to help buy another pig in the village.
The vegetables in the field are ready-made, and I asked people to pick a few large baskets and ask the village aunts and sisters-in-law to help pick and wash the vegetables.
Fortunately, there are many people, and the vegetables are also picked and washed after the pigs are killed.
With the previous experience, Lin Xiaoman opened his mouth, except for a few pieces of pork left to cook, the rest of the pork bones and pork had already been cooked.
When Lu Jin brought people over, he could smell the smell of meat wafting from the yard from a distance, and Qingshu beside him said: "Miss Xiaoman is stewed meat, it is estimated that there are many people here, and it is too late to stir-fry." ”
Lu Jin lifted the gift prepared in his hand, and thought: It is a stew, and Xiaoman's stew is more fragrant than others' stew.
Just as he was about to step in, he saw a woman with a basin say to another woman with a bowl: "It's here today, I don't know that this family is having a treat today, is this hiding is afraid that we will come to eat big food?" ”
"That's it, it's also thanks to us that we got the letter and rushed over, and we worked for them for a long time, and we didn't call us to come when we were invited to dinner, the richer we were, the more picky we were."
"Alas, it doesn't matter, when the meeting starts, I'll rush inside, whatever he is, I'll put a pot back first."
"Yes, the countrymen eat like that, as soon as the table is served, grab it first, and if we don't grab it, we are also cheap."
Lu Jin frowned when he heard this, and looked at Peng Guancha who came with him, and Peng Guan hurriedly said: "It is an exile sent a while ago, one surnamed Zhao and the other surnamed Fang, and it was also a family of cultivation and reading in the past, who wants to ......" There is no need to say more.
Lu Jin is not a stingy person, and he didn't invite people in the village to eat meat once in the past, but he couldn't see that these people treated Lin Xiaoman as a wronged person, and they disliked the countrymen in every way, so he whispered a few words to Qingshu.
I don't know who shouted: "The county magistrate is here." ”
Everyone made way out, and everywhere they walked by, the people of Hedong Village greeted Lu Jin, and Lu Jin also responded one by one, without half a stand.
Lin Youwang and Lin Daqiang were chatting with people in the courtyard, and when they heard Lu Jin coming, they hurriedly greeted them, and then accompanied each other left and right.
Qingshu, who was one step behind, pulled Lalin Daqiang's sleeve and asked, "Uncle, where do you write the gift account?" ”
Lin Daqiang was stunned, in the past, whoever married a daughter-in-law and a girl in the village had the habit of keeping a ceremonial account, but today is to celebrate Lin Erhu's childhood, and the Xiaoman family really didn't think about it.
But since you are here to eat the banquet, you should really keep an account, even if it is a green onion or two heads of garlic, it will be good to return the gift in the future.
What's more, Qingshu must have prepared a gift when he asked this question.
So he said to Lin Dawu: "Go to Mr. Xu's house and ask, if someone can write, borrow one." ”
Lin Dawu promised to trot out, and soon followed by a teenager, Xu Qiuliang's little nephew.
After Lin Dawu brought people in, he went to move the table, and asked Lin Erhu for the four treasures of the study.
Lin Erhu was gossiping with his former classmates in the house, and when he heard that he was going to borrow the four treasures of the study, he knew that he had to write a gift account.
"Uncle, don't worry about it, my sister said that she would invite the people in the village to dinner to celebrate, and she won't accept gift money."
Lin Dawu shook his head, "It was Brother Qingshu who asked, it should be someone from the county government who wants to pay a salute." ”
Lin Erhu didn't say anything after thinking about it, anyway, it was a matter of etiquette and exchanges, and whoever had something to do in the future, he and his sister would also move around more.
But the county government came, and Lin Erhu guessed that Lu Jin had arrived, so he wanted to go out to say hello, and by the way, he brought these former classmates who were good friends with him to brush up on his sense of existence in front of the county magistrate.
