Hongdou couldn't hide his surprise on his face and invited Meng Da in.

However, considering that it was already night at this time, it was inevitable that he would let the Xie family gossip when he went in as a big man.

Meng Da opened the door wide, and when he stepped on the threshold of the gate, he was reluctant to continue to walk inside.

"The Lu family does have a daughter who has just returned home in recent days, named Lu Moyu, in her twenties, and it seems that she is already reconsidering her marriage."

General Meng inquired about the news and told Hongdou everything, and he inquired about it quite smoothly, and the Lu family didn't hide it at all.

"I happen to know a brother who has built a stove for his master at the Lu family in the past two days.

The people are all talking about it, and it seems that except for the old lady of the Lu family, everyone else is not happy with this aunt and grandmother returning home. ”

Hongdou combined with the news he heard, most of the people who the uncle of the Sun family wanted to marry were the Mo Yu girl of the Lu family.

As for why he is in such a hurry to get married, it is natural that Lu Moyu's life at home is not easy.

Even in the later generations, there is a domineering daughter-in-law who does not allow the daughter of her in-laws to stay at home for a long time, let alone here.

"Thank you, Brother Meng, you really helped me a lot." Red Bean smiled and thanked him.

Meng Da felt that it was all a trivial matter, and he didn't take it to heart, and after telling Hongdou the address of the Lu family, he was about to leave.

"Brother Meng, wait, this is the reward."

Seeing that Meng Da was in a hurry to leave, Hongdou quickly took out a piece of silver from his body and handed it over, but Meng Da shook his head and refused.

"The sister of the Xie family is so polite, do you think that I, Meng Da, are not worthy of intercourse with you?"

This is a bit serious, and Hongdou repeatedly said that it was not. It's too late for her to thank her, how can she have such an idea?

"Then why are you so polite to do a favor between brothers, sisters and friends? Looks raw and gone. ”

After Meng Da finished speaking, he didn't give Hongdou a chance to refuse, and walked away.

But one yard is one yard, Meng Da and they helped run as soon as they came back, if she really didn't give anything, she couldn't help it.

"Brother Meng, you wait, wait." Hongdou walked out of the yard, chased after two steps, and stopped Meng Da.

"Since you don't give money, you must bring some food back, lest you go back and do it alone."

Meng Da opened his mouth and wanted to refuse, but Hongdou also didn't give him a second chance to refuse.

"You said that it's common for brothers and sisters to help each other, so it's also common for brothers and sisters to give each other some food, right?"

"I just made some lo-mei and adjusted the taste. You take it back and try it with the other two big brothers. ”

As soon as he spoke, Hongdou turned around and entered the yard, quickly went to the kitchen to wrap some lo-mei in the pot, and packed some cakes by the way.

Meng Da originally wanted to leave directly, but when he was just standing at the gate, he smelled the aroma wafting in the courtyard, and he kept holding back and was embarrassed to ask.

Now the sister of the Xie family took the initiative to mention that he was really reluctant to give up.

It's really fragrant!

"Brother Meng, take it quickly, the time for the marinade is not enough, but you can eat it.

There are also some cakes, go back to your three brothers to have a meal, and you don't have to fire alone. ”

Even if you cook by yourself, most of the skills are not very good.

Red Beans really guessed right.

At most, the three of Meng Da can barbecue some meat in the wild to eat, and they don't know how to cook, so they just buy some food to pad their stomachs on weekdays.

It's been a long time since they've had a home-cooked meal. So these red beans are given by Meng Da very much:

"Thank you to the sister of the Xie family, my saliva has come out, and I can't be wrong."

After Meng Da finished speaking, he said goodbye again, he wanted to go back as soon as possible to share the delicious food with Meng Er and Meng San.

Seeing him walk away, Hongdou re-entered the courtyard and closed the gate.

"Meng Da is gone?" Mrs. Xie stood at the door of the kitchen and said casually:

"Come in and take a look, it's good in the pot, these two gluttonous cats don't want to leave while guarding the stove."

Xiao Ya and Brother Tuan sat on the side of the fire, staring at the cauldron with their eyes on the gurgling cauldron, and kept swallowing saliva in their mouths.

Red Bean looked amused: "Wait another quarter of an hour and it will be almost." ”

A quarter of an hour was soon there, and the red beans opened the lid, and a domineering aroma spread in an instant, spreading from the kitchen to the yard and beyond.

The red beans picked out the marinated meat, and Zhang consciously cut them piece by piece for his family to taste.

"Hmm~ Beans, this is even better than before, and it is definitely no worse than the chef in the restaurant."

Hearing Mrs. Xie's praise, the two little ones couldn't bear it, Xiaoya handed a piece to Zhang's and red beans one after another, and finally ate it with Brother Tuan.

Zhang: "The taste is indeed better than ever, delicious. ”

Xiaoya: Uh-huh.

Brother Tuan: "My sister's cooking is so delicious, I'm going to bring it to Grandpa Sun tomorrow." ”

Hongdou nodded his brother's nose with a smile: "Brother Tuan is so caring, I thought of it." ”

"But the weather is hot, and the overnight is not fresh, so I'll make a new one tomorrow morning, and we'll bring it to Grandpa Sun."

Brother Tuan nodded heavily, and saw that Sister Xiaoya had eaten several pieces one after another, for fear of being eaten up, so he immediately joined the food grabbing action.

Hongdou watched the two laugh and play, and it was fun.

Following.

The Xie family made the jelly they needed every day, and the restaurant still took the red beans to Xiaoya to deliver.

When I came back, I happened to meet Wu Liuzi and Wang Er Mazi.

The two of them looked sneaky, and Hongdou and Xiaoya were hurt when they saw it.

Wu Liuzi hid in an alley, waving at the two red beans, looking like he wanted to come out but was afraid of being discovered.

It's already dawn, and as long as they don't get too close, they'll be fine.

"I thought the two of them regarded life as dung and disdained to come to the door."

In the face of two people who sneak up on their house in the middle of the night, no one will have a good face.

She's just an ordinary person, and she can't do it to repay her grievances with virtue, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Wu Liuzi's posture today is extremely low, and the two of them saw several doctors yesterday, but no abnormalities were diagnosed.

Originally, I planned to go to the county town to have a look, but they had no money on them, and they were afraid that they would be poisoned before they could come back.

In the end, I had to accept my fate.

"Miss Xie, didn't you tell us to keep an eye on Shopkeeper Zhou's movements and backyard before? I'm going to report back to you as soon as I have news. ”

Wu Liuzi smiled flatteringly, not feeling ashamed at all.

Life is dragged in the hands of others, what face do you need? Anyway, you shouldn't eat or drink.

Hongdou didn't expect Shopkeeper Zhou to be restless again, "What kind of black thoughts does Shopkeeper Zhou want to have?" ”

The shopkeeper of the big restaurant had to make it difficult for them to be a vendor.

It's disgraceful.

Wu Liuzi was afraid of being discovered, so he took a closer look before and after, and confirmed that no one was following before continuing:

"Shopkeeper Zhou asked me to find a few more brothers, and I am bound to snatch your recipe."

After speaking, Wu Liuzi glanced at Hongdou cautiously, and saw that her expression was quite calm: "No matter in any way." ”

Hongdou and Xiaoya understood the meaning of the words, they didn't even want to leave them a way out.

"What about the backyard, what's the situation with the concubine of the shopkeeper Zhou."

This Wu Liuzi also knows about it: "That concubine is twenty years old, and in fact, she can be regarded as the coercion of the shopkeeper Zhou." ”

Hongdou didn't expect that Shopkeeper Zhou's concubine would be so young, and Shopkeeper Zhou could be her grandfather.

"How?"

Isn't Li Zheng in the town, and Shopkeeper Zhou is so arrogant?

"It seems that her family used to set up a stall to sell pastries, and one of the pastries and the girl were all taken by Shopkeeper Zhou."

"Shopkeeper Zhou pretended that the restaurant wanted to cooperate with them, and then slandered them for unclean pastries and killed customers."

Later, it was logical that the shopkeeper Zhou hinted that the girl used her own pastry recipe to make a deal with him, otherwise she would send her father and mother to see the official.

"The girl's family doesn't understand anything, in order to save her father, she naturally should do everything, but actually...

Wu Liuzi deliberately sold a pass and wanted to take Qiao. But he forgot that he was the underdog at the moment.

Xiaoya waved her fist at him, signaling him to beat him if he was restless.

"Don't dare, don't dare, hehe, actually, the dead guest was also found by the shopkeeper Zhou, and the most important thing is that the person didn't die at all."

"What? People didn't die? Red Bean exclaimed.
