Husband and Father Youwei

Chapter 35 Celebration

Maintaining a good mood along the way, I soon arrived at Zhuxi Village without knowing it.After entering the village, Tu Xinmei went back to Zhao's house first.

The newborn Shuang Zhuang Zhuang is only a few months old and has not been weaned yet, and is weak and prone to illness due to premature birth.She went to help Tu Lin move this time, and she left for more than two hours. Although she only fed once before she left, but now that she is back, she has to go back and have a look before she can feel at ease.

Tu Lin and the others drove directly to Ruan's house, and met two young people in the village who were about the same age as Ruan Tang. One was Qiu Cheng and the other was Li Li.The two of them looked very familiar with Ruan Tang. It was only after Ruan Tang introduced them to Tu Lin that they had been friends with Ruan Tang for the past two days, and they had a very good relationship.

When Qiu Cheng and Li Li heard that Ruan Tang had moved back to Zhuxi Village, they were very happy, and followed Tu Lin and the others to Ruan's house to help move things.

Tu Lin wanted to make friends with the villagers, and he was Ruan Tang's friend, so he naturally had nothing to be unhappy about.The gate of the Ruan family was very wide and there was no threshold, so the cart was pulled in directly, and then several people started unloading things from the cart.

With the help of two more people, the unloading was soon finished. Zhao Changping went to return the two borrowed cars, while Tu Lin and Ruan Tang began to arrange the things. Food was put into the wing room, pots and pans were put into the kitchen, Clothes and bedding were put into the bedrooms, and the animals were driven to the pens in the backyard.Qiu Cheng and Li Li didn't leave either, and continued to help Ruan Tang and the others.

Tu Lin had been to Ruan's house before, and knew that Ruan's house was not much different from ordinary small farmyards. There were three main rooms and two side rooms on the left and right, but because it was close to the back mountain, in order to prevent wild animals on the mountain After ruining things, a stone wall nearly two meters high was built to enclose the front yard and the entire backyard.

As for Tu Lin in the backyard, this is the first time I have seen it, and it is indeed as Ruan Tang said, the area is not small. Except for the space occupied by the latrines and livestock pens, the remaining open space is enough for Tu Lin to dig two charcoal kilns. Can leave a lot of places to grow some vegetables or something.

The Ruan family's Ruan hall has been cleaned once before, so the house and the front yard don't need to be cleaned anymore, but the back yard needs to be tidied up.The pens need to be repaired and strengthened, the vegetable field has not been plowed for a long time, and it is full of weeds, and the charcoal kiln that Tulin needs to dig, because the charcoal will be sent again in three days, so there is no delay.

Fortunately, with the help of Qiu Cheng and Li Li, plus Tu Lin and Zhao Changping who returned the car, the four young and strong men who are used to farm work are also proficient in doing it.

A few men did these rough jobs in the backyard, and Tu Xinmei, who came back after watching the children, helped Ruan Tang clean up the front yard and house. When the cleaning was almost done, Tu Xinmei went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.Today is also the joy of Tu Lin's housewarming, so Tu Xinmei wants to cook a good meal, and the family will have a good meal to celebrate together, while Ruan Tang is helping Tu Xinmei,

An hour passed quickly after being busy, and before Tu Xinmei's dinner was cooked in the kitchen, Tu Lin and the others had already cleaned up the backyard.

The vegetable fields have been plowed, and seasonal vegetables have been planted. Two charcoal kilns have also been built. We only need to wait for the firewood to be made before we can start burning.It's just that it's getting late at this time, and everyone is inevitably tired after working for a long time, so they rest for the time being, everything will be discussed tomorrow.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Qiu Cheng and Li Li planned to go back, but they helped a lot. Although Tu Lin and Ruan Tang thanked them, they couldn't just let people leave like this, so they kept them busy. eat.But the two said that there are still people waiting at home, and they will live in the same village in the future, and sometimes get together, so Tu Lin and Ruan Tang don't have to be so polite.

Seeing that the two insisted on leaving, Tu Lin and Ruan Tang couldn't force them to stay. In the end, Tu Xinmei brought out two bowls of cooked braised pork from the kitchen and stuffed them with them, and asked them to take them home to eat.

Not long after Qiu Cheng and Li Li left, dinner was ready, and Tu Lin lifted the table, put chairs and placed the dishes and chopsticks.After a while, the food was ready, and since they were all from their own family, there were not so many taboos, so everyone sat around the table.

Even for celebration, wine is indispensable. There are two altars of high-quality Jinhua wine, the color is as clear as amber, and the taste is sweet and mellow. Since the alcohol content is not high, it is suitable for both men and women.

It's just that this wine was not bought by Tu Lin, but a thank-you gift from Zhou Yan when he came to thank him a few days ago, and there were several jars.In addition to drinks, those thank you gifts included the Four Treasures of the Study, supplements and medicinal materials, silk and satin, and some special local products. As for gold and silver, there was nothing there, which was in line with the style of the Zhou family's scholarly and aristocratic family.

Tu Xinmei was still breastfeeding the child and could not drink, so she asked Zhao Changping to pour herself a bowl of tea, and then she picked up the tea bowl and said sincerely to Ruan Tang, "Ah Tang, thanks to you helping me take care of Tu Lin and Xiao An in the past few years , otherwise I don’t know what they will look like today, today I will replace wine with tea, thank you.” After finishing speaking, he brought a tea bowl to his lips.

"Sister, this is what I should do, you don't need to do this." Ruan Tang hurriedly tried to stop him, but he couldn't. Tu Xinmei has a very straightforward personality. Although she drank tea, she also looked a bit feminine. Rarely bold, she raised her head slightly, and drank the full bowl of tea in one gulp.

Ruan Tang couldn't stop him, and felt a little ashamed, so he raised the wine bowl in front of him and said to Tu Xinmei, "Sister, I should be the one to thank you. If you and Brother Zhao hadn't been generous enough to help me out of my predicament, Now I don't even know what situation I will fall into, so I should toast you and Brother Zhao." After speaking, Ruan Tang also raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp.

This drink can't be compared with tea. Although Jinhua alcohol has a low alcohol content, drinking a whole glass at once, even on an empty stomach, will make people feel a little uncomfortable.Sure enough, Ruan Tang frowned as soon as he finished drinking, but he didn't put down the wine bowl, but went to fetch the wine bottle and pour it again.

Seeing this, Tu Lin hurriedly snatched it down, and said, "Okay, okay, we are all one family, so thank you for whatever you say."

Zhao Changping also persuaded with a smile on the side: "Yes, Ah Lin is right, they are all a family, Ruan Tang, you really don't need to be so alien, besides, I also watched you grow up, your father also helped you It helped me a lot, what Amei and I did is nothing."

Tu Xinmei didn't expect that her thank you would cause Ruan Tang to bring up the past, and she couldn't help but feel annoyed, and hurriedly said: "Don't talk about it, let's eat vegetables. I made a lot of special dishes today. Ruan Tang Be sure to eat more and try my handicrafts." Then he picked up a chopstick for Ruan Tang.

Ruan Tang's uncomfortable energy had passed, and Tu Lin took away the wine glass and bottle, and he couldn't drink it even if he wanted to, so he didn't insist anymore, thanked Tu Xinmei with a smile, and took it away. He picked up his chopsticks and ate the dish Tu Xinmei had given him.

Seeing that Ruan Tang ate it, Tu Xinmei didn't eat it herself, so she smiled and said to Ruan Tang, "I heard that A Lin said that you like something lighter, so I made this vegetable dish, how about it?"

As mentioned earlier, Tu Lin's grandfather had good cooking skills, and he only had two children, Tu Lin's mother and sister-in-law, so he passed on the cooking skills to his two daughters.

As the daughter of Tu Mu, Tu Xinmei was naturally taught by Tu Mu.It's just that when Tu Xinmei was eight years old, Tu's mother passed away, and Tu Xinmei was taught the skill of cooking.

Although she didn't learn all of Tu's mother's culinary skills, it has benefited Tu Xinmei a lot. She is much better than ordinary peasant women, and she is often invited by families who want to hold weddings, weddings, and full-moon birthday banquets to cook for her, earning a lot of money. Some money to supplement the family, such craftsmanship is naturally not bad,

Sure enough, Ruan Tang swallowed the food in his mouth, and said with a smile: "It's delicious, my sister's cooking is so good, I eat it, and it's no worse than the master chef in the county restaurant."

Ruan Tang liked it, and Tu Xinmei was naturally happy, so she held another chopstick for Ruan Tang, but she was a little ashamed to accept Ruan Tang's compliment, shaking her head and laughing: "It's fine if you like it, but I'm alone Country people, how can you compare with master masters in the city, don't talk about it, and let others hear me so they won't laugh at me."

"How could it be?" Ruan Tang smiled, but seeing Tu Xinmei looked very embarrassed, he didn't say anything more, but Tu Lin who was on the side said: "Sister is too modest, if you want me to say that Ruan Tang is right, sister is so Good craftsmanship, if you open a restaurant in the county, the business must be good. If someone really laughs at you, it must be because that person's cooking skills are not as good as yours, and they are jealous of you."

Tu Xinmei cooks, and Tu Lin naturally eats it. Although Tu Lin has eaten a lot of good things in the original world, he has to admit that Tu Xinmei's cooking is indeed good, so there are some praises Sincerely.

"Is it jealous or not? It's just a few home-cooked dishes. It's not that exaggerated. You are still jealous of me. You guys will talk nicely to coax me." Tu Xinmei was even more embarrassed by the words.

Although she did hear a lot of people other than Tu Lin praise her cooking skills, but she didn't take it too seriously, she always felt that it was just some common dishes in the countryside, and she would make a lot of them, so it was really nothing What, so when I heard what Tu Lin and Ruan Tang said at this time, I just thought they were trying to make her happy, and didn't take it too seriously.

Tu Lin also heard Tu Xinmei's indifference, he smiled, and just about to say something, he heard Zhao Changping on the other side ask him: "By the way, second brother, you have moved to Zhuxi Village now. But what are your plans? After all, the business of this charcoal will be better in winter, and it may not be easy to sell after winter. I think it will be safer to buy some fields."

After Zhao Changping finished speaking, Tu Lin's expression remained unchanged, but he paused before smiling and said, "Brother-in-law is right, I also plan to buy some land, but I don't have much money right now, so I plan to save up first. Right now it’s winter, don’t worry about farming, we’ll talk about it later.”

Tu Lin's reason was reasonable, Zhao Changping didn't think too much, nodded and said: "That's fine, even if you buy it now, you can only put it on hold, why don't you wait for another two months, when the weather gets colder, and when the year comes At that time, the land price was also the cheapest, so it was the most suitable to buy.”

"Brother-in-law is right, I think so too." Tu Lindao, after he finished speaking, he glanced at Ruan Tang without a trace, but saw that he was talking with Tu Xinmei, as if he hadn't heard the conversation between him and Zhao Changping, he couldn't help feeling slightly With a sigh, in another two months, I don't know if I can continue to stay in the Ruan family?

Thinking of this, Tu Lin couldn't help feeling a little melancholy. He picked up the wine bowl and drank the remaining wine in one gulp, and then took the wine bottle to pour it for himself again, but he didn't want to press his hand suddenly on the arm.

Tu Lin raised his head, met Ruan Tang's eyes, and saw Ruan Tang frowned slightly, and said to him, "Drink less, you won't be afraid of getting drunk." Then he took the wine bottle, not allowing Tu Lin to pour it again .

In fact, Tu Lin hadn't drunk much yet, but he felt as if he suddenly became a little drunk, so he let Ruan Tang move, and smiled obediently to Ruan Tang: "Okay, listen to you, I won't drink anymore." , and put the wine bowl aside.

When Ruan Tang saw Tu Lin's 'cute' appearance, he suddenly didn't know what to say, so he lowered his eyes and looked away.

Eating, drinking, talking, laughing, and laughing, the time passed unknowingly, and when everyone was gradually full, the sky had turned from bright to dark, and it was time to leave the banquet.After dinner, because it was getting late, Zhao Changping and Tu Xinmei couldn't stay longer, so Tu Lin and Ruan Tang sent them out together.
