Chapter 1: The Scarlet Wedding (1)
"I said, Lao Luotou, what else is there to consider about this matter? My son also invited you to burn the flowing water mat when he was a talent in high school! Now that he is married, we don't bother the two masters, or you are up!"
The middle-aged man who spoke was surnamed Feng, and his name was Feng Heizi. Since childhood, he has grown black and thin. When I was young, I was fine, but I looked spiritual, and when I was old, my face was full of furrows. When he laughed, he was squeezed like a cliff and rock formation in the mountain! The standard native who was shaving in the mud was wearing a fine cotton blue robe, and he was still careful to be hooked by his waist, which made people feel awkward no matter how they looked at it!
Lao Luotou is also in his forties, with a round, full, white and clean face, slightly shy stomach, and black hair combed to the slightest.
He pounded a ball of snow-white white fungus, and said without raising his head: "See." This is what the third aunt of the prefect's brother-in-law wants at the full moon banquet! I'm still barely worth it!
Feng Heizi hurriedly said: "Don't fight, don't fight! That little girl's full moon wine and my son are a few days apart!"
Lao Luo tilted his head and raised his eyes: "Lao Feng, you know my rules! It's only three in January! I will have two red things and one white thing next month." It's full!"
Feng Heizi was anxious: "Why is it full? I obviously inquired, you will have two errands next month!"
Although Lao Luotou is an outsider, no one dares to compete with him for his cooking skills! A man from the shovel head gang in the next village who is not long-sighted once came to him for a competition, but he was abused and ran away in embarrassment! But he is also a bad man, and he only takes on three jobs a month because of his good skills! It is strange to say that even the local tyrant squire and the lord in the yamen all give him three points of face!
Luo Jifu paused: "Originally, there were only two tables, who let the girl of the Lu family suddenly disappear?"
Feng Heizi's face brushed a board!
The girl of the Lu family was originally his son's daughter-in-law since he was a child!
He choked in his throat and choked Lao Luo: "That girl's life is thin and blessed!
Luo Jifu stared at him strangely: "I don't blame you!" He showed a look of reassurance, "Feng Heizi, although this is the unlucky girl of the Lu family! But the bones are not cold, and your son is in a hurry to marry Miss Zhang from the rice and grain store in the city! What does this make our villagers think?"
Feng Heizi Huo got up: "That's not to rejoice the old lady of the Zhang family! I said Lao Luotou, don't follow others to talk nonsense! Our family has to sit upright and have a clear conscience!" After speaking, he didn't care about the matter of inviting the cook, and turned around angrily and left!
Luo Jifu snorted lightly at his back!
"The villain has a will!"
He cleaned up the white fungus, and suddenly heard a rapid and terrible pig cry from the back kitchen, and his body shook and he raised his legs and ran to the pigsty in the backyard!
"Ah, my little ancestor!" Luo Jifu's eyes were full of pigs' hooves, and they were about to break through the pigsty like crazy! He slapped his thigh fiercely, "Luo Susu, you dead girl, what are you doing to your father's pigs? That's the Poria cocos carved pig that your father has carefully fed for more than half a year! If you scare them out, how can this pig eat?!"
A girl who was only eleven or twelve years old held a pig-killing knife in her hand, stepping on the big bluestone and sharpening the knife towards the fat pig. The eyes that were as bright as the water of the spring river were calm and calm at this time, and the killing intent was soaring: "Dad, let my daughter try the newly practiced blistering and ox fast knife technique!"
"Knife fart!" Luo Jifu took away his daughter's knife, "You, you, you! You said that you are a golden and noble lady, do this kind of pig-killing work, do you still want to get married?!"
Luo Susu rolled his eyes at the sky: "What gold is noble, I'm a country girl, and you're not afraid of flashing your waist when you talk a lot!"
"My daughter, it's Jin Gui!" Luo Jifu didn't allow his daughter to doubt, "Also, I said that you usually follow me to practice knife skills, and when you get married, I will take care of all your cooking skills and you will accept them as a dowry! But what are you fighting with these pigs? The masters I invited you have taught them all in vain, haven't they? Qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and tea, what have you learned so far?!"
"Qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine, tea, how can it be more affordable than oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, firewood, rice, and grain?" Luo Susu ran out of the knife, and rolled down his sleeves in frustration: "Dad! You said that I am a village girl, and I can learn those things? If I really learn well, Gu Zhaohui still dares to marry me?"
"Phew!" Luo Jifu's eyes were bulging, "Gu Zhaohui is my son-in-law in a hundred miles, no, I am one of the sons in a thousand miles!
"Daddy, Daddy!" Luo Susu sneered, "Aren't Lu Yinhua and Feng Jiabao also good friends with childhood sweethearts?"
Luo Jifu was stunned by his daughter for a moment: "How can you compare the Gu family boy with the Feng family treasure?
Luo Susu looked bored: "Okay, I'll go to the kitchen to carve radish!"
Luo Jifu pointed to the back of her head and his fingers trembled: "Embroider! Go to the embroidery room to embroider !!"
"Okay, I'll carve a hundred flowers on the radish for you!"
Luo Jifu didn't have any way to take his daughter, he was reluctant to scold and even more reluctant to beat, he only stomped his feet with hatred: "You are like this, how can I be worthy of the kid of the Gu family!"
Ten years ago, when he moved to Jiuhua Village with his daughter, who was still babbling and learning to speak, he was unfamiliar with the place, and his eyes were black! It was the village chief Gu Maosen's family who lent a helping hand! Help him find a job and help him take care of his daughter! So his daughter and the son of the Gu family grew up in a small courtyard! The relationship was deep and they were bored! Luo Jifu and Gu Maosen got married after drinking!
After all, Luo Susu has been a beauty since she was a child, and she has a father with excellent cooking skills and good character, so the Gu family didn't worry about her being crooked at all!
It's just that the face is not crooked, and this temperament is a bit - it's hard to explain.
Luo Jifu felt deeply guilty: why didn't he raise his daughter to be the ideal lady!
In the blink of an eye, most of the month passed, and Feng Jiabao, the talented son of the Feng family, got married, and the village was constantly blowing and playing early in the morning.
Feng Heizi has a son and a daughter, and his wife left early. It is not easy for him to confess to a show of talent by smashing pots and selling iron. It's just that his daughter Feng Xilian is a thirteen-year-old girl who hasn't smoked a strip yet, and she is as thin as a chicken.
The village chief looked at her pitifully, and in order to take care of his family, he often asked Zhaohui to send her some food. So at today's wedding banquet, as soon as Xilian saw Zhaohui, she happily pinched the new skirt and sat beside him.
Zhaohui is not very old, but he is tall and handsome, and his eyes are crooked when he laughs, and he is full of affinity. It's just that when he saw Xilian's flushed smile, thinking of Lu Yinhua, who died unexpectedly, he really couldn't laugh, so he just nodded and said, "Congratulations." ”
Feng Xilian pursed her lips and smiled timidly, like the most fragile spring of a branch: "Why didn't Su Su come with you?"
When Su Su was mentioned, Zhaohui's smile came as soon as he said: "She, practice swordsmanship at home!"
