Chapter 161: A Sudden Aroma
There is not much wasteland in Sweetwater Village, and the two pieces with good locations were selected by Jiang Zhimiao, and the rest are either too remote or the terrain is not good.
The piece of land chosen by Jiang Xingsuo's family happened to be near Jiang Zhimiao's house.
I didn't hear Fang Huaihua say it before, but I didn't think there was anything, but now I know that everyone goes there to eat, and vaguely, it seems that I can hear the conversation of the big guys drinking wine and eating meat.
Yu Shui has been busy in the kitchen, but he didn't notice anything different outside, and now that the food is served, he finds that no one has come, he is puzzled, depressed, and deeply upset for Jiang Zhimiao.
Five taels of silver is not something that anyone can do, and it is not something that anyone can eat.
Looking at the few people at the table, Yu Shui frowned, and spat at the laughter from Jiang Xingsuo's house, "I don't know the goods!" ”
There were not many people coming, so there were naturally many vacant seats on the table, and seeing that there was a seat, Jiang Zhimiao pulled his family into the seat together.
Originally, she thought that there were a lot of people coming this time, so she specially prepared an extra table for the table, but it backfired, and there were many more, so Jiang Zhimiao also went to the table with the guests.
Speaking of the dishes on the table next to the dishes are quite common, that is, the beef pot is very rare, the cattle of this era are all ploughing cattle, generally speaking, if you do not die of disease or old age, you can't slaughter at will, if there are arbitrary people, once found, there are also people who kill their heads and go to prison.
Before, she just mentioned it, saying that it would be good to have a beef pot, but Yu Shui said that his father-in-law's family happened to have a cow that was about to die, and he was about to slaughter it and sell it.
Jiang Zhimiao originally didn't have much hope, after all, the status of the cow in this dynasty is equivalent to the giant panda, who knew that things were so coincidental, the Yu Shui family had it, thinking that she hadn't opened the beef meat for a long time, so she asked him to buy twenty catties of beef back.
A beef pot with green vegetables and bean sprouts, and dense sweat appeared on the foreheads of everyone who ate it.
"Hiss, obediently, this pot tastes too good, fortunately I didn't go to Da Jiang's house to eat, if I know that there is a beef pot but I can't eat it in my mouth, I won't regret dying."
"Harm, who said it wasn't, fortunately you told me earlier that her family bought tofu and a lot of hard vegetables, otherwise, I wouldn't have to be moved by that Jiang Xingsuo like others, Huaihua, it's good to have you."
Fang Huaihua and Yang Shumei were sweating profusely, their mouths were hissing, and they kept fishing vegetables from the pot all the time, and from Jiang Zhimiao's point of view, the chopsticks were all in their hands.
Seeing them eating happily, Jiang Zhimiao's heart was also comfortable, but their appearance of grabbing vegetables and grabbing red ears still made her feel a little funny.
At the same time, Jiang Xingsuo's family.
The Lin family looked at Jiang Xingsuo and the Zhao family unwillingly greeting the guests back and forth, and the intestines in his heart were about to repent.
Braised pork, sticky bean buns, stewed goose in an iron pot, stewed mushrooms with chicken, looking at the dazzling dishes on the table, Lin's heart was not only joyful, but dripping blood.
She, the housewife of the second room, is not as important in the hearts of the old couple of the Jiang family as Jiang Xingsuo, who pretends to be crazy and sells heavily, which really makes her hopeless.
A main room is not as good as a concubine's room, and she doesn't know who to talk about the pain with, so she can only grit her teeth and swallow it in her stomach, and she is very aggrieved.
Originally, she was very sad, and she was borrowed fifty taels of silver by Grandmother Jiang, but she was unwilling, but she still had a virtuous and virtuous appearance on her face.
Looking at the mouths of the four-room husband and wife eating with oil, and they didn't know what it looked like, Lin's heart gave birth to a deep sense of powerlessness.
Seeing the resentment in his wife's eyes, Jiang Xingshuo's heart was also uncomfortable, he originally said that it was good, and if he divided the family, he would live his own life, but his old lady was unclear, so he had to let his family pay fifty taels of silver to subsidize the four rooms.
If he didn't want to borrow it, he couldn't do it, but she suppressed it with filial piety, and in the end he could only borrow the fifty taels of silver aggrievedly and watch it go down the drain.
Counting the silver borrowed from the other rooms, the fourth room now has one hundred and fifty taels of silver in their hands, and speaking of which, this banquet was still done with their own money.
Jiang Xingsuo also pretended to be generous, squandered it at will, didn't mention a word, and took all the credit to himself, and Jiang Xingshuo's heart was very uncomfortable.
Jiang Xingsuo, as the host, took two sips of wine, and was standing in the middle of the courtyard with a red stomach on his face, holding a cup and smiling and shouting: "Today, I Jiang someone is happy to move, everyone will eat with an open stomach, eat and drink and be full, don't save me money, eat and drink well is the best congratulations to me Jiang someone." ”
As soon as he heard this, a trace of disgust flashed on Jiang Xingshuo's face, he turned his head and muttered through gritted teeth: "I don't know what to say." ”
I still wanted to say a few more words to him, after all, this time his family suffered a loss, and the fifty taels of silver must have been lost, and it was strange that his moral character was going to come back, and he didn't have hope, so he wanted to vent his depression on his lips.
Unbeknownst to him, before he could say a few words, the crowd suddenly stirred, and everyone fidgeted, looking left and right, and smelled the unknown fragrance in the distance.
"Fragrant, so fragrant, what kind of dish is this, it's so fragrant, my saliva is about to flow out."
Listening to the sound of the snort, the person who had just said the incense snorted his saliva, looked into the distance stupidly, and involuntarily walked towards the birthplace of the fragrance.
"Obediently, it's true, this thing is so fragrant, it really hooked out all the roundworms in my stomach, looking at this direction, it seems, it seems to be from Xiao Jiang's family."
"I also remembered when you said this, it's not Xiao Jiang's family over there, it must be some fashionable dishes made by her family, I knew it earlier, I would have gone to her house to eat, maybe I could get a few more bites of dishes that I haven't eaten to appetize."
Listening to their discussions, Jiang Xingsuo's face was pulled at once, and he looked at the place where the fragrance came from.
In order to suppress Jiang Zhimiao, he almost invited all the people in the village to his house for a banquet, originally to give her a dismount and let her know how powerful the Jiang family is, but no one went to her house to eat the banquet and let her show off once, which really made him very aggrieved.
The fragrance became more and more intense, and the people in the courtyard were uneven, and the still lively banquet was messed up by this sudden aroma, and Jiang Xingsuo's heart became more and more aggrieved.
"It's so fragrant, I really can't help it, Brother Jiang, brother, I'll go first, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
The sound of a chair grinding against the ground came, and there was a chatter in the courtyard, and many people were thinking of leaving the table. (End of chapter)
