Chapter Twenty-Four: The Bad News Makes the Family Angry
One of the bold strong men, usually responsible for protecting the military advisor, knows very well the military advisor's set of crepe.
"Strategist, we usually train very hard, our stomachs are very easy to get hungry, and if we grab slowly, we are all eaten by others, so we can only lick the plate."
Mr. Gongsun glared at Niu Dazhuang, "Just a dozen of us!" ”
"Huh!" Niu Dazhuang just rolled his eyes, and quickly took the last half of the bowl of millet porridge left in the porcelain basin and poured it directly into the bowl, "That's because you are too slow!" ”
Mr. Gongsun was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "Come out with you, I haven't eaten a full meal!" ”
Li Xiaoyue saw these people arguing and funny, and covered her mouth and smiled.
"Mr. Gongsun, if you don't have enough to eat, I'll send you some more!"
If it was before, Mr. Gongsun didn't have such thick skin, but the leek box was delicious, and he was very hungry, he felt that his skin was not so important.
"Mrs. Li, I don't eat much, just give me another leek box!"
"Then wait a minute!" Li Xiaoyue said with a smile, thinking that these people are quite interesting and not terrible.
Li Changfu took a bowl of millet porridge and two leek boxes and sent them out.
This time, Mr. Gongsun held a bowl in one hand and two leek boxes in the other, and did not dare to put the food on the table for fear of being snatched away.
Li Laohan took his son and grandson to have breakfast at his daughter's house, and instantly fell in love with the leek box.
"Xiaoyue, go back and tell your sister-in-law how to do it, in the future, our family will often eat this thing called a leek box!"
"I just sent some to my sister-in-law, and I've already said how to do it!" Li Xiaoyue replied, "The leeks in the vegetable garden grow very well, not only can you wrap leek boxes, but also buns, dumplings, frying pot stickers, ......"
Li Laohan blinked, "I know buns, what are dumplings and potstickers?" ”
Li Xiaoyue was stunned again, even her well-informed father didn't know about dumplings and potstickers, and others didn't know about it.
"I heard from the people of Fanbang over there, and I'll try to do it tomorrow."
Li Laohan laughed, "Okay, my Xiaoyue is smart, and I guarantee that I can make delicious food." ”
Being praised, praised, and loved by the old father all the time, Li Xiaoyue smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth.
The leek box was praised by everyone, which made Li Xiaoyue's idea of developing more delicacies stronger and stronger.
After eating the leek box, Li Xiaoyue gave everyone two mint leaves.
Mr. Gongsun was slightly stunned, "Mrs. Li, what is this?" ”
Li Xiaoyue replied: "Leeks are delicious, but the taste is heavy, and it is inevitable that they will leave a taste in the mouth. Mint leaves, crisp and refreshing, chew two slices to clear the smell. ”
"Thank you." Hearing this, Mr. Gongsun was a particular person, so he quickly took the mint leaves, put them in his mouth, and chewed them slowly.
Mr. Gongsun couldn't help but look at Li Xiaoyue again, and had to admit that although this Li Niangzi lives in the countryside, it can be seen from these details that she is a particular person.
Mr. Gongsun distributed the mint leaves to the others, and the ruffians led by Niu Dazhuang squeezed their eyebrows, "Strategist, we don't need it." Men, you have to be manly, otherwise how can you be a stinky man? ”
Mr. Gongsun couldn't cry or laugh, his face was hot, these unsophisticated reckless men are really ashamed, shame on them!
"Don't mind Mrs. Li, they're just a bunch of rough guys. At noon, I have to trouble Mrs. Li. ”
Li Xiaoyue chuckled, "Yes, farmhouse rice, I will try to make it delicious." ”
"Mrs. Li's ingenuity is admirable." Mr. Gongsun wrapped the remaining mint leaves in a handkerchief and put them on his body, "Farewell." ”
"Goodbye." Li Xiaoyue waved her hand, thinking that this somewhat hypocritical Mr. Gongsun was quite interesting.
The son of the blacksmith Wang sent Li Laohan a specially customized tool for making honeycomb coal last night.
Li Laohan took his four sons, eight grandsons, and three brothers, Li Changfu, and began to make honeycomb coal.
Li Xiaoyue wanted to help, but was driven away by Li Laohan, "There are so many men, you don't have to do these heavy jobs." So many people, go to cook. ”
Seeing that Li Laohan is working in full swing with so many people, the division of labor and cooperation, and the efficiency has been greatly improved, Li Xiaoyue is indeed not needed.
Li Xiaoyue walked around the vegetable garden, smelled the smell of toon, followed the smell to find it, found more than a dozen toons, picked them, and prepared to make toon mixed with tofu.
When she got home, Li Xiaoyue remembered that although there are soybeans now, there is no tofu.
Just when Li Xiaoyue was thinking about what to eat at noon, a woman wearing sauce-red clothes, holding a handkerchief in her hand, and sitting on a donkey quietly approached Lihua Village.
The eyebrows are raised, the eyes are not big, the cheekbones are a little high, the lips are thin, the chin is pointed, and there is a mole with a hair on it!
This person is the Wang matchmaker who has a bad reputation nearby, and the stupid son of the Zhao family killed the first few wives, all of which were Zhang Luo.
Now come to Lihua Village and come over to urge marriage for the irritable and murderous stupid son of the Zhao family.
Liu Changan was grazing cattle nearby, and after seeing Mrs. Wang's matchmaker, his face changed greatly, and he instantly understood what was going on, and drove the cattle back to the village.
"Mother, it's not good." Liu Changan ran out of breath, he was already in poor health, he was afraid and tired, his face was pale at this time, and he almost couldn't get up and smoke it in one breath.
Li Xiaoyue hurriedly came out of the house, Li Laohan and the others stopped working, and looked at Li Changan one after another.
"Chang'an, don't worry, speak slowly." Li Xiaoyue stretched out her hand and gently gave Liu Changan a smooth breath.
Liu Changan took a few deep breaths, and then said intermittently: "Wang ...... Mrs. Wang is here, and she will be in the village immediately, she must have come to urge the Zhao family to get married! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
The bowl in Liu Changhuan's hand fell to the ground, and with a "snap", it fell to pieces.
Li Xiaoyue turned her head and looked at her eldest daughter Liu Changhuan, who was pale and trembling with fright, and ran over quickly, "Changhuan, don't be afraid." ”
Liu Changhuan is very gentle, has a gentle personality, always has a shallow smile at the corner of his mouth, and always takes care of everyone in the family silently.
Especially Li Xiaoyue, since she crossed over, her face and feet were all washed by Liu Changhuan, and her clothes were also washed by this eldest daughter.
Li Xiaoyue hugged Liu Changhuan and stroked Liu Changhuan's back, "Changhuan is not afraid, my mother is here." Today, Mrs. Wang is here, and I will refuse this family business. ”
"We now have thirty taels of silver from Mr. Gongsun, I'll borrow some more, let's return the bride price to the Zhao family, and my mother won't let you marry into the Zhao family."
When Liu Changhuan heard his mother's words, he cried.
She hated her father very much in her heart, ostensibly for the bride price, but in fact, Liu Yunde deliberately agreed to marry the landlord Zhao when he drank in order to retaliate against his grandfather for not giving him the silver imperial examination.
Who doesn't know that the big fool of the Zhao family is a bad breed who killed more than one wife?
My mother cried and made trouble at the time, but she didn't make trouble with her father, so she still made a family decision.
Li Laohan scolded: "That bastard Liu Yunde is a scourge. As soon as he left, Chang Huan was going to be killed by him. Xiaoyue, you have to insist on quitting your family, I support you. ”
