Chapter XXIII

drove away Wang Dayu, and Meng Chuntao talked about inviting the village chief and his wife in the evening.

Meng Guoqiang has no opinion, he and Meng Guochuan are cousins, and having a few meals is not a big deal, and it can also bring each other closer.

"You've been busy all day, so you don't know how to rest more, so you know to take care of yourself."

Meng Guoqiang simply feels sorry for his granddaughter, not to mention the busy business back and forth every day, but also takes care of the housework, and sits and eats in different ways every day.

Thinking of eating, Meng Guoqiang swallowed his saliva unhappily.

I don't know who Meng Chuntao learned from, the same dish is so delicious in Meng Chuntao's hands.

Thinking of Meng Chuntao's cooking, Meng Guoqiang remembered an interesting story.

I don't know who this girl learned from, so she scooped half a spoonful of oil directly with a big spoon when cooking, and his distressed face turned white at that time.

According to Meng Guoqiang's usage, he can use half a spoonful of oil for at least about a month.

As a result, he was beaten by Meng Chuntao, oh no, it was a dish for Huo Huo, you can imagine how painful his heart was at that time.

They all came from difficult times, and they are all used to saving.

At first glance, looking at Meng Chuntao's posture of putting oil, salt and seasonings, Meng Guoqiang had the idea of grabbing the spoon and cooking by himself.

Finally, it was the aroma of the dish that made Meng Guoqiang stop.

Not to mention, if you put enough oil, even if you stir-fry cabbage, it is delicious.

Fortunately, although Meng Chuntao uses oil and seasonings well, she will make up for it every time she runs out.

Meng Chuntao is also often brainwashed by Meng Guoqiang, making money just to live a good life, just to not have to worry about calculating how to use oil and salt when stir-frying.

How to come how to be happy, buy if you don't have enough.

Over time, Meng Guoqiang also saw it and didn't care about it.

Now even if Meng Guoqiang is asked to fry a dish, he is willing to put oil.

Meng Guoqiang thought as he added a fire to the stove, and Meng Chuntao was cooking vegetables.

Not long after, Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law came to the door.

They didn't come empty-handed, with snacks and tea.

"This tea is all made by my daughter-in-law, don't dislike it."

Meng Chuntao was frying vegetables, the heat was soaring, her brain was also sweating, and when she heard Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law's words, she couldn't help but be taken aback: "Auntie, you are so skillful, you can actually make your own tea!" ”

From this remark, the words of praise fell on Li Shunyue as if he didn't want money, but his hand didn't stop stir-frying.

Li Shunyue is Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law, a very shy person, who was praised by Meng Chuntao for blushing.

What I thought in my heart was, no wonder my father-in-law and mother-in-law praised Meng Chuntao at home, just this mouth was very pleasing.

Last time, they didn't come back until the next day when they went back to their parents' house, so they didn't catch up with Meng Chuntao's invitation to dinner.

But after eating, my parents-in-law often praised Meng Chuntao at home.

Li Shunyue also wanted to get to know this person well, but she didn't go home every day, and she didn't have much chance to meet him.

I don't want to have a chance today.

Li Shunyue secretly looked at Meng Chuntao, but at the age of seventeen, her face was bright, and her smile was full of flavor.

"Little Peach, don't tease your aunt, she has thin skin, but she still has a good heart." Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law said a very fair word, neither elevating nor belittling, very real words.

However, when she looked at Li Shunyue, Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law also had a satisfied look on her face.

The two sides exchanged a few words, Li Shunyue neatly rolled up her sleeves and joined the ranks of stir-frying, and Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law became a food taster.

Although he invited someone to eat temporarily, the dishes prepared by Meng Chuntao were also sumptuous.

She also bought some meat and ribs in the provincial capital, but the portion was still sufficient.

There are also ready-made fish at home, and picking vegetables in the vegetable garden is enough to make a table of dishes.

As for the meat, she made back to the pot meat and tamales, and the pork ribs became sweet and sour.

The fish is a sea bass without any spines, steamed directly, and the fish belly is stuffed with lean meat before steaming, and when the fish and meat are cooked, they can be contaminated with an umami taste.

It also roasts fried meat with beans, fried vegetables, steamed eggplant, and steamed eggs.

Meng Chuntao's dishes are very weighty, and all the dishes are fried in oil, and the aroma is tangy.

Just standing here and smelling the fragrance can swallow a pound of saliva.

All the dishes were fried, and Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law also tasted a mouthful of oil.

"Little Peach, I really didn't say it, your dish is too delicious! The disadvantage is that it consumes too much oil! It's just delicious! ”

Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law couldn't help but sigh, she wanted to say it last time, but the relationship at that time was not as good as it is today.

She was afraid that if she said it rashly, it would make people unhappy, and besides, it was reasonable to use more oil during the festival that day.

But I didn't expect that tonight's cooking will still be like this, not a year or a festival, if it goes on like this, how will this day be lived.

Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law is willing to say this, that is really taking Meng Chuntao as a family.

If you weren't a family, who would worry about it for you?

Meng Chuntao ironed in her heart, and looked at Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law's eyes more affectionately: "Grandma Meng, it's not easy to invite you to dinner, I must say hello." It's all a family, and we don't care about this! I can let you eat and drink well. ”

Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law shook her head with a smile, and remembered Wang Dayu's owe money again.

After the college entrance examination is over, she has to ask Wang Dayu to pay back the money.

If she doesn't pay it back, she will let the old man go to him!

Having made up her mind in her heart, Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law had a bright smile on her face.

After a while, Meng Guochuan came with his son and grandson.

The two sides greeted each other, and Meng Chuntao invited someone to take a seat.

Meng Guochuan and Meng Guoqiang sat together, with their backs to the earthen wall. Meng Guochuan's sons Meng Dashan and Li Shunyue sat on Meng Guochuan's left side, with their backs against the cupboard. Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law and grandson Dazhu sat on Meng Guoqiang's right hand, and Meng Chuntao consciously sat below and poured them wine by the way.

Although Meng Chuntao doesn't drink, she is also very good at making an atmosphere, and the atmosphere at the dinner table is very good.

Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, after the wine and food were full, while everyone was still in spirit, Meng Chuntao took out five yuan from his pocket and respectfully handed it to Meng Guochuan.

As soon as he saw the money, Meng Guochuan immediately glared, and he wanted to shirk and refuse to ask for it.

Meng Dashan saw the money, but his eyes were dripping, and there was a little more smile on his face.

"Grandpa Meng, let me finish my words first, and then you decide whether you want this money or not!" Meng Chuntao didn't withdraw his hand, and opened his mouth firmly.

"Dad, just listen to why Xiao Tao wants to give you money." Meng Dashan said with a smile.

"My little peach is still measured in her work, you can listen to the reason first." Meng Guoqiang also followed to dissuade him, but he muttered in his heart, not knowing what Meng Chuntao wanted to do.

But no matter what Meng Chuntao does, he supports it.

She must have a reason to do this!

Meng Guoqiang thought.

Under the persuasion of several people, Meng Guochuan pondered for a moment, and the wine was a little sober, "Then tell me, why do you want to give me money?" Let me say okay first, cadres are not allowed to accept bribes, don't try to corrupt me, I am ideologically conscious! Meng Guochuan opened his mouth with righteous words.
