Chapter 23
Zhang Guizhi is smart and works very well. Soon after, she came over with a bowl of fragrant hand-rolled noodles.
Annie took a look and found that the flour of this era may not have been deeply processed, and even the fine noodles are not as white as the flour of later generations.
Although it looks a little yellow, the wheat is full of fragrance.
Even though there is not too much oil, there are no side dishes such as meat and eggs, and only some green vegetables cut into thin strips, it still smells very fragrant.
Suck ~
Annie was a little embarrassed. Drooling was definitely not her original wish. This was the instinctive reaction of this body.
"Baoer, eat it while it's hot." Aunt Wan looked kind and looked like a look. The rich fragrance of noodles only penetrated into his nose, and he couldn't help but let out water in his mouth. However, Aunt Wan tried hard to endure it.
It is autumn now, and there is finally some production in the field. Although it is not as good as the past years, it is much better than the previous two years.
At least, the villagers feel that the natural disaster has passed and a good harvest will surely be achieved next year.
This year, there is a harvest, but the shadow brought to everyone in the past few years is too great. People are afraid of hunger and have extraordinary persistence in eating.
It would be nice to eat coarse grains half full, and they would never dare to think about fine grains. Even if there were some fine grains at home, they would find a way to replace them with coarse grains.
Aunt Wan remembers that the last time she ate fine grains was four or five years ago.
"Mom, you eat."
Aunt Wan was thinking, and Annie picked up a chopstick and fed it to her mouth.
"Mom doesn't like noodles, Baoer, please eat it." Aunt Wan swallowed her saliva so much that she was greedy, but she still looked disgusted.
"I don't eat it, but I don't eat it." Annie doesn't believe in "not eating". People who have experienced natural disasters and have been hungry will never be picky about food.
Annie insisted on feeding the noodles to Aunt Wan's mouth. Seeing that his daughter was like this, Aunt Wan had to open her mouth.
Anne quickly stuffed the noodles into her mouth.
Once you have a mouthful of wheat, the wheat aroma is rich; if you take a bite, the noodles will be chewy.
Aunt Wan felt that this was the best noodles she had ever eaten in her life. As she chewed, her eyes became wet: "It's still my Baoer's filial piety, and she thought of me when she ate the noodles. It's not like your unscrupulous brothers--"
Zhang Guizhi felt a little unhappy. Her man was filial enough, but she still asked her mother-in-law to scold her all day long.
Annie was not An Baoni. She keenly noticed the subtle changes in Zhang Guizhi's expression and hurriedly said, "Mom, my four brothers and sister-in-law are also filial, and they are good to me. This noodles was given by my elder brother, the noodles were made by my second sister-in-law, and the firewood for cooking noodles was picked up by my third sister-in-law and a few nieces. And my fourth brother gave me four apples."
Annie praised all four brothers and sisters-in-law, and then said proudly: "It's not that I boasted, there is no such harmonious family as ours in Anjiabao."
Zhang Guizhi was a little surprised. When did this sister-in-law become so sensible? She didn't fan the flames like she did in the past, and she learned to put out the fires on her own initiative?
Aunt Wan did not doubt Annie. In her eyes, her Baoer was a well-behaved and sensible child.
In the past, Baoer quarreled with others and it was all the fault of others. This "other" also included everyone in Anjia except for their mother and daughter.
The daughter suddenly helped her son and daughter-in-law speak, and Aunt Wan also had speculations.
After sending Zhang Guizhi, Aunt Wan leaned into Annie's ear and whispered, "Baoer, are you scared today? Don't be afraid, my mother is not dead yet, it's not the turn of others to make decisions in this family, you don't have to whisper to those ungrateful wolves."
Annie held the chopsticks and acted to feed Aunt Wan another bite, but Aunt Wan avoided it.
Annie knew that her mother loved her and had a delicious food at home. She would give her food if she didn't eat it. It was already the limit to just eat it. If you just had a bite of noodles, my mother would never eat it.
Understanding this, Annie felt warm. Thinking of Aunt Wan’s miserable experience in the plot, Annie secretly made up her mind that she would protect the old man and never let those bad people hurt her!
Thinking of the task, Annie finished the noodles in a few bites and whispered, "Mom, I'm not afraid of what happened today, I'm just a little sad. Actually, I don't really want to eat apples, but I just can't stand the appearance of my fourth sister-in-law's showing off her power due to her pregnancy."
Since you can't reconcile with Li Fang, let's just fight!
Aunt Wan was a little surprised. Li Fang pretended to be quiet and sensible all day long. In fact, Aunt Wan knew exactly what kind of person she was.
Not to mention anything else, just the incident of her instigating An Guo to force her family to go to the Li family to propose marriage was enough to let Aunt Wan see her character clearly.
What surprised Mrs. Wan was that her own Baoer could even detect something wrong with Li Fang.
You know, except for her, Zhang Guizhi, the entire Wan family, understands it in his heart. Fang Xiu'e and An Guoliang brothers all think that Li Fang is a sensible and virtuous person.
Annie saw Aunt Wan’s doubts, raised her chin and said proudly: “I am my mother’s daughter, so I am naturally as smart as my mother. I used to be unwilling to bother her, so I let her pretend. But now, she is actually competing with me in everything. If I can still tolerate it, then I will not be worthy of being my mother’s daughter.”
Annie was not worried that Aunt Wan would doubt her, and she would not have the guilt of being a stern player. Because she knew that in this world, she was An Baoni.
It can be said that Ann Baoni is Anne of the parallel world. They are originally one person.
"Oh, my Baoer, I know that Baoer is the most like me." She is as smart as her silly sons, who are fooled by her daughter-in-law one by one.
"Mom, at noon, I was lying on the kang, my stomach was rumbling, but my brother and the others were having dinner in the main hall. None of them brought me the meal like my mother," Annie said aggrievedly, "My second sister-in-law also gave her two sons the white flour pancake that my mother left for me-"
"What a good Zhang Guizhi, I knew she was not honest and dared to steal my Baoer's meal." Aunt Wan almost jumped up in anger, but she took the opportunity to get off the edge of the kang and turned around and rushed out.
Annie grabbed her and said, "Mom, don't be angry first. Although I was angry with my second sister-in-law doing this, I can understand that her two children are sons, and I am just a money-losing guy!"
"What kind of money-lossing guy? You are my mother's heart and the treasure of An's family!" Aunt Wan was really angry this time. Before she could dislike the girls and movies in her family were money-lossing guys, her daughter-in-law had disliked her baby first.
Aunt Wan was sure that several daughters-in-law kept carrying her and said something about losing money in front of Baoer, otherwise Baoer would not have blurted out such a word.
"Mom, with you here, everyone in the family dares not bully me, but you have seen what happened today. You have only been out for a long time, and they—" Annie said, judging at Aunt Wan's face.
Sure enough, Aunt Wan's face instantly became ugly after hearing this.
After a while, Aunt Wan gritted her teeth and said, "Baoer, don't worry, my mother will teach you a few brothers well in the future so that they dare not be bad to you."
Aunt Wan is quite confident in the sons she gave birth to. As long as she suppresses them, they will never dare to rebel.
She is in her fifties and can live for more than ten years no matter how hard she is. By then, Baoer had already found her husband's house, and it doesn't matter if her brothers and sisters-in-law have any opinions.
"Mom, you are forced to treat me well, so why don't they really feel sorry for me."
Annie shook her head and said her thoughts: "Actually, my brothers are pretty good to me, mainly a few sisters-in-law. As long as they think I am a money-losing guy and should not be loved by the whole family, they will always have opinions about me. They dare not in front of you, but as long as you are not in front of you, they will be the first to jump out and make me angry!"
When Aunt Wan heard what her daughter said, she became more and more proud: It’s not that she is her own daughter, but her mind is very useful. She is only twelve or thirteen years old, and she understands all the truth.
Aunt Wan also realized that her daughter probably had a solution, so she continued: "Baoer, what should I do according to your opinion?"
"Mom, Da Ni, Er Ni and the others are still young. It's too early to go to the field to work. Let them go to school with me!"
The An family already has signs of "favoring boys over girls". Annie feels that she must strangle this problem to death in the bud!
But Aunt Wan misunderstood, she thought a little thoughtful: "Do you want to pull the third family to suppress the second family?"
Anne:...
