The Zhao family ended up like this, and the Wang family was naturally happy. Wang Zhuangzhi went straight to the butcher shop to buy ten catties of pork belly, and also went to the wine shop to make two catties of high quality wine, and go to the grain store to buy peanuts and melon seeds.
The owner who had just bought two red fish paid a deposit of 50 Wen, but Wang Zhuangzhi did not interfere, and Erya kept the money.
Erya, who had money, ran to the jewelry store excitedly. There were all sorts of headbands and hairpins, but none of them helped him choose. His father and younger brother were both men, so he didn't buy them.
Anyway, I'll come deliver the fish tomorrow, and her sister's face is fine. Let her mother and sister come together to choose jewelry.
...
It was already past noon when the carriage came home, Liu Zhihua looked at the big and small bags in the carriage, and felt that the homeowner was spending too much money.
"Isn't there meat in the house? One pork belly is worth three catties of bone and meat, and you don't want to weigh them separately." Liu Zhihua chattered dissatisfiedly.
With a smile on his face, Wang Zhuangzhi directly pulled the woman aside and said something in a low voice.
Liu Zhihua was dumbfounded for a moment, then grabbed the head's hand and asked excitedly: "Creally?"
Wang Zhuangzhi nodded with a smile, "That's right. It is difficult to return the money if you lose the item, but now it is involved in an official case. Selling official salt without permission is a crime. This time the Zhao family can't forget it, neither can we." You don't have to live in fear anymore."
"Ups! Time to buy some meat to celebrate..."
Liu Zhihua stuffed his heart into his stomach now, and happily ran straight into the pot to light the stove, preparing to boil the soft, glutinous boiled pork.
Jiaojiao saw that Mother was going to light a fire for cooking, and asked confusedly, "Mother, didn't you just have lunch?"
Xiao Li also ran over and said, "Mother, we ate dumplings and bakpaos in the city, and we're not hungry yet."
Liu Zhihua said as he cut the meat: "Mother is cooking dinner. If you want to eat soft and sticky boiled pork, you must marinate and boil it first. I guess it'll take a couple of hours. It will be dark when the stew is finished. Some corn tortillas, a pot of egg flower soup, and pickled spicy sour cabbage are delicious, so you can eat as much as you want."
After listening to what mother said, Xiao Li and Jiaojiao gulped. Boiled pork made by the mother is very fragrant. A large piece of sugar-colored fried meat is very clear, soft and glutinous. One bite of meat was cornbread and spicy cabbage, not to mention how delicious it was. Then drinking a bowl of warm egg drop soup, just thinking about it makes me hungry.
At this time, Erya came out of the house, the cotton skirt she was wearing was replaced by a rough linen dress, and a piece of cloth was tied on her head.
"Sister, why are you dressed like this?" Xiao Li pointed to the clothes and said.
Erya walked over with her sleeves rolled up, and replied: "Foolish base, don't you see mom cutting meat, the order is boiled meat."
In the past, my family did not eat much meat all year round. When I went to town to buy a small piece of meat, I had to marinate it a few times and eat it a few times. Only when I boiled boiled pork during the Lunar New Year would my mother cut the meat directly. So today I have to make boiled pork.
After she finished speaking, Erya happily shouted into the kitchen, "Mother, I will help boil some water."
Liu Zhihua, who was cutting meat in the kitchen, heard him, and shouted, "It's not busy, it's still morning, you can play with your sisters, mother can do it alone."
Erya looked into the backyard, there was nothing to do there after freshening up, and there was no need to go to the pond, it would be more pleasant to see mom cutting and cooking meat.
Erya hugged the little girl and kissed her, then told Xiaoli: "Xiaoli, my sister is going to help mom, so we can eat boiled pork early, you and Jiaojiao go to play, you and Jiaojiao go play, remember to protect my sister, let's crash."
Jiaojiao hugged her sister and said in a candle-like voice, "Sister, Jiaojiao also wants to help."
Xiao Li raised his hand excitedly, "Sister, I want to help bring firewood."
The four of them were cooking inside the house, while Wang Zhuangzhi was outside to clean the carriage and feed the horses.
The car that was just bought was a treasure. Every time I return from a trip, I have to clean the inside and outside of the carriage and bathe the horse. After all these days, the carriage was still as new, and the horses were no worse than those kept by a professional groom.
...
at the same time,
Xiaoshu Village.
Outside the old manor house belonging to the Wang family, a carriage slowly stopped.
"Miss Wang, we've arrived."
The carriage driver jumped out of the carriage, lowered a wooden box and placed it on the ground, then lifted the curtain.
Yingniang, who was wearing an apricot-colored brocade robe, stepped on a wooden box to get out of the carriage. His face looked happy at first, but when he saw the residence in front of him, he was stunned.
"Mom, my legs are numb, please help me."
Yinniang regained his senses and turned to help his daughter down.
Wang Liu'er in a pink skirt had a black face as her feet touched the ground, and the shoes she had just bought were covered in dust, so she did not dare to get angry because her mother was by her side.
He raised his eyes and looked around, looking at the countryside, he only covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, the disgust in his eyes was obvious.
"Mother, why does Third Uncle and his family live here? It's even more dilapidated than grandma's house."
After hearing his daughter's words, Yingniang saw a simple fence, a hollow courtyard of land, and four yellow mud houses. He saw his roof patched with straw, and there were circles of water stains on the outside of the wall. The cracked wooden door began to collapse...
Will third brother and Zhihua stay here?
My mother-in-law's house is a large courtyard with three entrances. Naturally, this village is not as grand as the courtyard in Ancheng, but a hundred times better than the courtyard in front of me.
The two cannot be compared at all.
The coachman saw the two of them staring at the courtyard, so he kindly reminded: "Miss Wang, this house is full of dust, the owner must have moved on."
Wang Liuer heard that he took the opportunity to persuade his mother and said: "Mother, third uncle and three aunts should not stay here, why don't we go to the city first, why don't we go to the city first, didn't we meet with third uncle and three aunts in town last time? Saying that I will pass here in the last two days, I will go to the city to prepare some toiletries for him first, so that I will not panic when I come."
Hearing his daughter's words, Yingniang sighed and said, "We've arrived at our doorstep, so let's find someone to find out where your second uncle and aunt are now. It's not easy for us to come back. After this time, we don't know when the next time." back."
Wang Liu'er pursed her lips, "Mother, Wan'er is an honored guest, so there is no delay."
Yinniang glanced at her daughter, and words of reprimand stopped on her lips. Seeing this, the driver smiled and said while winking, "Miss Wang, please go and pee."
The coachman left, Yingniang looked at her daughter seriously, and said in a low voice: "Miss Sun has just invited you to have tea at home twice, she said, the eldest son of the Sun family doesn't even know who you are, even if you are on good terms with Sun Wan'er, there is a servant by his side to serve him, so you don't need, an outsider, to do so."
If she had not been brought up since she was a child, she would have doubted whether this was Yingniang's daughter, and her temperament was nothing like hers. She had invited her husband to teach her for two years, and she could read and write. How could he be so stupid? .
