The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

The latest website: Zhulan knew who Li's voice was, nodded and said, "This time I went to Beijing to take the exam. Whether I can stay in the capital in the future depends on the results of the master's spring festival. I can't say for sure about the future situation. "

Li's second aunt asked, "Isn't Chunwei next year, why are you leaving this year?"

She really didn't understand what Chunwei was, but only after listening to the head of the family, her elder brother's in-laws had become magistrates.

Zhulan explained: "There is a house in the capital. We can go to the head of the house in advance so that we can prepare for the spring, so as not to rush to the road next year and get sick and miss the spring."

Li's third aunt caught the point, "Is there a house in the capital?"

My darling, how much is a house in the capital worth? I was annoyed that my mother-in-law was partial to the big room, and such a good marriage was given to the big room. Now that I am better, I not only have to rely on the big room to talk good things, but also to please my niece. I feel uncomfortable thinking about it.

Li Xu's heart was pounding, her daughter's luck was so great, she might not have an official father-in-law in the future, alas, thinking that the Li family also has an official in-law!

Zhulan smiled, the men of the Li family are straight-minded, and the daughters-in-law are shrewd. Zhulan doesn't hate Li's aunts. There are many small calculations, but they don't step on the bottom line. Zhulan admires them even more. The deceased old Mrs. Li must have spent a lot of effort to find a suitable daughter-in-law for her son. It is not easy for the old lady.

Li also remembered that there was no food at home, and came from the kitchen, "A few aunts are here too!"

Li's third aunt saw that her niece's clothes were sore again, and she also wore such good clothes for cooking, and then looked at the pearl hairpin on her head, oh yo, her heart was sour, and she had to smile on her face , "Yeah, look, I also brought a lot of dishes!"

Li was thinking about going home to pick vegetables, "Thanks to a few aunts, I was just about to tell my mother that I was going home to pick vegetables!"

Zhulan smiled and said to Mrs. Li, "I'll all stay here for dinner today. You can measure the food."

Mrs. Li sighed, there are quite a lot of people in the four rooms of the Li family, "Mother, do you bring the children to eat too?"

She didn't see the Li family's children, they should all stay at home.

Zhulan's generosity is not only because she came to congratulate her, but also because the Li family has been taking care of the house for the past six months. She glanced all the way, there is no grass in the yard, and there is no dust on the tables and chairs. It can be seen that Li's family is very sincere .

In the future, even fewer of their family will come back. The Zhou family will have to rely on the Li family to take care of the house and the land. In addition, the wild things sent by the Li family's several houses have really helped Zhou when the city of Pingzhou was closed. The family is quite busy, so this meal must be eaten.

When the city was closed, meat was the most scarce. The Zhou family sent wild things to Xu Jinshi's family, Wu family, and Zhao Bo, which brought a lot of favors to the Zhou family!

Zhulan smiled, "All come to eat."

Li Xu hurriedly said: "This is impossible, we are embarrassed enough to stay."

She knows how many children there are in the Li family's several rooms. If she comes to the Li family's house, she can sit down at five or six tables. Wouldn't it be a small eight tables to sit down for this meal!

They originally came to see, but they didn't expect to stay for dinner.

Zhulan pressed Li Xushi's hand, "I'm happy to eat today, and it's lively and lively together. My mother doesn't need to say anything. I'll listen to me today."

After speaking, Zhulan said to Mrs Li: "It's not dark now, you and the boss said to buy some chickens and come back to kill."

Back from Pingzhou, Zhulan bought 20 kilograms of sauce meat and ten roasted chickens. I was going to give half of them to the eldest daughter's family. Come on, I ate all of them today. Bought in the county.

Zhulan also brought back a lot of food. It seems that dinner will be gone today. Oil, salt, sauce and vinegar are also brought back from Pingzhou. It is estimated that the meal will also be gone. All to be reset.

Li responded, "Mother, I went out with the vegetables."

"Go."

Li's strength was great, and he went out with three baskets without much effort.

While walking, Mrs. Li was weighing the dishes in her heart. The three aunts brought a full range of dishes, not only those grown in the yard, but also mushrooms and fungus. It was not difficult to make eight tables of dishes at night, and there were three ready-made dishes. , is actually quite easy.

A table of eight dishes, sauced pork, roasted chicken, sauced pig trotters, chicken stewed with mushrooms, fried cabbage with fungus, scrambled eggs with peppers, and stewed potatoes with beans.

Mrs. Li carried the vegetable basket to the kitchen and came to Mrs. Zhao's side, "Brother and sister, mother asked me to buy chickens. I'm thinking about buying some eggs. Give me some money!"

Mrs. Zhao was brushing the dishes, put down the bowl in her hand, wiped her hands and untied the purse beside her, "How many chickens and eggs do you want to buy, sister-in-law?"

Mr. Li counted with his fat hands, "To make eight tables of dishes, it's enough to buy six chickens, stewed mushrooms, and a hundred eggs, and I will cook eggs for the children for breakfast tomorrow!"

Looking for something, he took out a tael of silver and said, "Sister-in-law, look at Zhoujia Village, which is not far away. The butcher's house should still have meat, and our family has a carriage. Let eldest brother go to Zhoujia Village to buy it and pick up the eldest sister's family."

Li took the money, "It's still as thoughtful as you think, okay, I'll talk to your elder brother."

Mr. Dong interjected, "Sister-in-law, when you cook eight tables of dishes in the evening, do you want to cook the staple food first? What is the staple food sister-in-law going to do?"

Mr. Li was thinking about the steamed buns with mixed noodles. He didn't bring much cornmeal. In Pingzhou, the cornmeal was either boiled porridge or pasted with cakes to change the taste. Most of them ate steamed buns and rice with white noodles. The food went straight up.

Mr. Li coughed, "Steamed steamed buns, we didn't bring enough noodles back, just let your eldest brother go to Zhoujiacun to exchange some."

Mrs. Dong didn't speak anymore. Sister-in-law was confused, but she knew the most about the kitchen.

A few sisters-in-law of the Li family believed that the sister-in-law did not brag. The sister-in-law really said what she said. She was happy and envious at the same time!

Zhulan chatted with Li Xu for a while~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Mrs. Lizheng from Lijia Village came and brought some vegetables and eggs, knowing that the Zhulan family was worried that there would be no vegetables to eat.

It's not that Zhulan forgot the vegetable garden in the house. She didn't entrust it to the Li family, and she also had her own scruples. The Zhou family had already helped the Li family a lot, and the vegetable garden was forgotten, so Zhulan was always empty.

By the way, there are also several dogs that I bought at the beginning, which are still kept in the house. The Zhou family left food for a few dogs. The Li family took good care of the dogs. The big dogs are still very energetic. As for the thin ones. It was unavoidable. The Zhulan family often had bones to eat when the dog was there. When the Zhulan family left, where the Li family had bones for the dog, they could only eat the leftover food.

When the Zhulan family came back, the happiest thing was the big dogs!

Half an hour later, Xuemei came with her child, and Zhulan learned that Boss Zhou went to Zhoujia Village to buy chickens and picked up Xuemei's family.

Zhulan didn't pay attention to Xuemei's stomach when she came back last time, but this time Xuemei was wearing thick clothes. Zhulan looked at Xuemei's belly, "Why is your belly so big?"
