Chapter 353: Flying Dragon Sect Follow-up Monthly Pass)(1/2)
That night, after finishing the dishes that needed to be prepared in advance, everyone gathered together and made dumplings made of pork dregs.
It uses pork dregs and a local green vegetable called watercress. Mixed together, it has the meaty flavor of pork and the refreshing taste of green vegetables.
At first, the Fang family brothers and Jiayin were doing it, Fang Zhixin, Fang Zhigang and Fang Zhiqiang were rolling the dough, and the rest were doing the wrapping.
Second Aunt Liu, Liu Yuer, and Yang Huiyun watched for a while, and couldn't help but help. They slowly found the trick, and it turned out to be no worse than Jiayin and the others.
The three Liu brothers originally wanted to help, but there were already enough people and the tables were all crowded so they didn't need to help.
Later, Liu Dazhuang and Liu Erzhuang took him to the mountain to chop firewood. There will be a lot of firewood for tomorrow, so prepare more to be prepared.
When they came back from chopping firewood, the dumplings were being put into the pot. Two large pots were cooked in total. Everyone ate a lot, including several women who ate two bowls.
It was the first time for the Liu family and Yang Huiyun to eat it. It was very novel and the taste was really good. They couldn't help but eat more.
When Liu Erzhuang's family came home, they all walked with their bellies in their hands, burping as they walked.
After a good sleep, everyone got up early the next morning and started working.
Originally, for banquets here, people who are good at cooking in the village would be invited to cook, and then some leftover meat and vegetables would be fine.
However, they didn't invite many people, only five tables in total, and the Fang brothers' craftsmanship tasted much better than the people in the village who specialized in making banquets. The Fang brothers were willing to do it, so they didn't invite anyone else.
First, Fang Zhiyuan and the others really like to make it, and secondly, this way they can add some things to it. Some of the seasonings they bought yesterday were not all available, and they are not available here at all.
Although they said they followed the customs here, after knowing that most of the dishes cooked here were soups and soups stewed in large pots, the brothers decided to cook them themselves.
They don't want to waste ingredients, they also want to leave a good impression here and make Liu Yu'er look good.
After a while, the women and children of A Yuan's family arrived with tables, chairs, benches, bowls and chopsticks. The children put down their things and went outside to play with the three Liu brothers and Pang Pang outside the yard.
Ayuan's wife and eldest daughter came to help. The men would come later. If they came early, they would make trouble or sit in the yard and chat.
Women who come early can also help wash the dishes, wash the dishes and wipe the tables, chairs and benches.
A Yuan's wife looked to be in her thirties or forties, dark and thin, and very talkative. She soon became familiar with Jiayin and the others.
Her eldest daughter looks nothing like her. She is much whiter and plumper than her, but her personality is exactly the same.
Following her mother, she kept praising Jiayin and the three girls for their good looks.
Especially Jiayin, although she doesn't look very old, she can already tell how beautiful she will be in a few years.
The couple spoke with words of praise, but they were speechless in their hearts. This little girl was born into an ordinary family. If she had been born into a rich family, she would have been forced to enter the palace and become a queen.
The facial features are so exquisite, and they look better and better the more you look at them.
When you first see her, you may just think that this little girl is cute and cute, with fair and flawless skin. But if you look closely at her facial features, you will find that she is simply impeccable.
This means that he is still young. If he were a little older, there might not be peace on the road, and the young masters of the princes and nobles would inevitably not covet him when they meet him.
They didn't know that Jiayin had used her spiritual consciousness to protect herself. Most people would only think that her facial features were exquisite when they saw her, but they wouldn't have that particularly stunning feeling.
But as a dragon, she likes beautiful things and won't go out of her way to look ugly, so she can only use her spiritual consciousness to cover it up to make people ignore her appearance.
Along the way, when walking with the Fang brothers, people would not notice her at a glance, but would subconsciously ignore her.
Only people with some Taoist practices and wisdom like Feng Taoist or Tianzun Guanzhu will be attracted to her at a glance. The main reason is that the golden light of her merits cannot be covered up in the eyes of people with discerning eyes. It is not because
her appearance.
While they were chatting and laughing, Aunt Liu's son Ahua also came over with her two sisters-in-law. Her parents and brothers would sit at home for a while and then come over when the banquet was about to begin.
When the two sisters-in-law entered the house and saw several little girls, their eyes lit up. Liu Yuer and the others were familiar with each other, but they had not seen each other for more than a year.
Unexpectedly, I haven’t seen this child look more juicy in more than a year.
Liu Yu'er actually traveled with Jiayin and the others in the past few months. She ate well and had no worries on the road. In addition, Jiayin would occasionally mix some spiritual water into her meals.
Not only Liu Yu'er, Yang Huiyun has also been raised to become more hydrated, her skin is white and rosy, and she looks blessed.
Yang Huiyun herself is not bad looking. She looked a little frail before, but now she is still a little thin, and her face is rosy and she looks even more beautiful.
Ah Hua's two sisters-in-law helped wash the pots and dishes while also joining in their chat.
Hearing that Yang Huiyun was Fang Zhiqiang's future wife, they regretfully gave up their thoughts. Yes, they were attracted to Yang Huiyun.
The sons in their family are older than the Liu brothers. One is 17 and the other is 16. They are about the same age as Yang Huiyun. If the other party is not married, it doesn't matter if they are orphans.
Daughters-in-law who are good-looking and seem to be hardworking at work are very popular.
As for the good news, again, I'm still young, and I don't look like I can marry here.
Being able to be taken out by my brothers to travel together, I know that my family is very worried. I will definitely marry near my home in the future, how can I marry thousands of miles away.
However, their goals soon changed. The eldest daughter of the A-Yuan family looked pretty good too. She was round and round, and she looked like she would be pregnant, and she also had a happy look on her face.
So he struck up a conversation with A-Yuan's wife. Not to mention, the conversation was quite speculative. A-Hua also saw some clues and praised her nephew a lot. She almost made a decision immediately.
Seeing that Sister Fangfang from Uncle Ayuan's family was a little shy, Liu Yu'er deliberately changed the subject and talked about what they had seen on the road.
Sure enough, the interest of several women was aroused. Even though Ahua had already listened to it once, she still listened with gusto and helped to add some from time to time. Liu Yu'er said it yesterday but forgot it today.
The women heard the exclamations again and again, and the courtyard suddenly became more lively.
The brothers of the Fang family listened secretly and laughed. Sure enough, there were three women in one play, so many women had several plays. It was really lively.
I don’t know how I was talking, but suddenly I mentioned the follow-up events of Feilong Sect, which happened after they left.
It wasn't that Liu Dazhuang and the others didn't want to talk about it before. The main reason was that it was not a good memory for Liu Yuer. She had finally forgotten it and didn't want to expose her scars.
But A Hua's two sisters-in-law and A Yuan's wife didn't think it was a scar. After all, Liu Yu'er was getting married soon, so it wouldn't have any impact.
Besides, that matter is not a secret, everyone in Yulong County here knows about it.
As soon as the topic was brought up, Liu Yu'er and the others looked confused, so they knew that this was something the family hadn't said, but since they had already started, they couldn't stop suddenly, as it was a taboo, and it didn't look good, so they just started talking.
.
"Just two days after you left, the Feilong Cult incident broke out, and many officers and soldiers came here to investigate the missing women.
There must be an explanation for those women who suddenly disappear and come back again. We are here too, specifically to ask about Yu'er. We only left when we found out that Yu'er had married far away.
I heard that I didn't find out anything from other families. Some families loved their daughters and didn't want to cause trouble, so they tried every means to hide it, and found a place farther away to marry their daughters.
But there were also those who didn't love their daughters very much and caused a lot of trouble.
Lin Sanniang, the daughter of the Lin family in the west of our village, was also rescued. The Lin family, her brother, sister-in-law, and even her nieces and nephews often used this incident to try to get rid of her.
Coupled with the gossip outside, Lin Sanniang couldn't stand it anymore, so she hanged herself at home.
It wasn't even in her own room, it was hanging from the beam of the main room! The next morning her family came together and saw someone hanging in the main room, and they were almost frightened to death.
The most bizarre thing is that since her death, things have always happened to their family. They would sprain their ankles while working at home, break their legs when going up the mountain to cut firewood, and even the youngest child would fall into a manhole and almost drown...
Now everyone is staying away from their home, saying that their daughter died unjustly, and this is retaliation against them.
The family wanted to invite Taoist priests to come and perform rituals to send away their daughter's wronged soul. However, when the Feilong Sect incident broke out, all the Taoist priests here disappeared and they couldn't be invited at all.
In the end, I didn't know where I invited a goddess who was said to be able to exorcise ghosts, and she sang and danced around the house.
I don’t know whether it was a coincidence or an evil spirit at work. On that windy day, a piece of broken tile fell from the roof and hit the goddess’s head directly, causing her head to bleed. She was so frightened that she rolled and crawled.
Just ran away.
After that, no one dared to interfere with that family's affairs, and they no longer dared to live in the house. They moved directly back to the dilapidated old house, and then it stopped.
That house has been empty until now. When we passed by it when we went to the fields, we didn’t dare to approach it, so we tried to walk around it as much as possible,” A Yuan’s wife said.
Jiayin curiously used her spiritual sense to explore the west end of the village, and immediately found the empty house. The yard was already overgrown with grass. Compared with other occupied houses, it was almost desolate.
Jiayin felt something looked familiar there, and when he looked again, wasn't it the courtyard at the entrance of one of the tunnels they discovered at that time!
Jiayin frowned, a daughter of this family was also taken away? I didn’t hear about it at the time!
When Liu Yuer's father was looking for his daughter, didn't he say that only Liu Yuer was missing in Yuquan Village a year ago? Wasn't that girl arrested together?
Jiayin was thinking this, and Liu Yu'er had already asked.
A Yuan's wife said: "Yu'er, you may not know that his daughter was not taken away, but sold by his family.
At that time, it was said that she was married to a village at the foot of Xuelong Mountain, and she had never returned to her parents' home since she got married.
It wasn't until the story about the Feilong Cult pretending to be a dragon god under the Snow Dragon Mountain came out that I realized that the wives and their own daughters who had been married in that village had been sent to other counties to do that kind of flesh and blood business."
Liu Yu'er frowned and said, "Then... what about those women? Are they all going to end up like this?"
"Why……"
A-Yuan's wife sighed and said: "Some families take her back if their parents' family is good, find a family from a relatively distant place, and marry her as a widow. There should be no problem in living a good life in the future.
Also, my mother-in-law's family thought it was embarrassing, and my husband's family was arrested by the government, so I had to find a way on my own.
There are those who are strong and are now self-sufficient in farming in the village at the foot of Xuelong Mountain, and those who cannot think of it have committed suicide.
I heard that more than a dozen people died! These women are also pitiful. They couldn't help themselves when they were in their parents' home, and they still couldn't help themselves when they arrived at their husband's home.
I was sold and finally rescued, but I still don’t have a place to stay..."
As he talked, the atmosphere in the courtyard became a little bad.
The Fang family brothers also heard this and couldn't help but fell into silence.
Seeing this, A Yuan's daughter-in-law clapped her thighs quickly, "Hey, what are you talking about on this happy day? Why am I talking about this? Yu'er, aunt didn't mean it. Don't think too much about it. Live your life well in the future. You are so lucky.
To be continued...
