The north and south rooms of Qin Huairu's house are connected, separated only by a low wall of more than one meter high.
Although the door to the inner room is at the far west, except for the cupboard to the east when you enter, you can see everything else clearly, except for the door.
How dare Mr. Jia Zhang dare to trust her daughter-in-law to meet alone with a young man?
She kept looking inside the house, watching the tall man outside the window walk away, but her daughter-in-law was still standing at the door.
"Damn it, why don't you come in?"
Qin Huairu came to her senses, turned around and shouted to the back, "I'm thinking about what we should eat tonight? Let's use this broth to stew some cabbage?"
As she spoke, she walked to the back room squatting over the pot. Most of the pot of soup contained a few pieces of pork offal and some lean minced meat.
Jia Zhang took a closer look and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "There is still a lot of meat. If you go to the butcher shop to buy it, these pig offal will cost more than 40 cents a pound. Now it must be more than a pound, right? Master, he
Is your eldest nephew a nice person?"
Qin Huairu rolled her eyes, not bad? It’s not bad!
With that unabashed look in his eyes, he wished he could eat her without even spitting out a bone. He raised his hateful thick eyebrows, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
This is not the countryside, otherwise she might not be able to come out with her legs straight after entering the corn field.
"Yes, they are okay, mainly because the aunt is kind. What do you want to eat tonight?"
Jia Zhang hesitated slightly, "How about stewing some cabbage? I originally wanted to stir-fry it today, but with the meat, the spinach is not as fragrant as the cabbage. We can all get some oil and water from the stew."
"Okay, I understand." After saying that, Qin Huairu twisted her waist and walked outside, ready to start cooking.
The birth was healthy, and she was almost fully recovered within a few days. She was ready to find some easier odd jobs in a few days.
Over there, Yi Chuanzong had already arrived at the back room in the backyard. This was a house at the back of the courtyard. The house was directly behind the deaf old lady, and it also faced north and south.
Except for the inverted house in the southernmost part of the three courtyards, the other twelve households all have doors facing south.
When Yi Chuanzong came to the door, he saw a thin aunt in the woodshed next to her lighting the stove.
She is the thinnest aunt except for the first aunt. It may be because she only gave birth to two children, so she has not gained weight, or it may be because her family is too poor.
"Aunt Wang."
The middle-aged woman in the woodshed paused and turned around quickly, "Zhuanzong, why did you think of coming to the back here?"
Yi Chuanzong smiled and said: "Auntie asked me to bring you some braised vegetables, throw them in and order some cabbage and spinach. You don't have to cook carefully tonight."
Before Aunt Wang could speak, the door to the room opened, and a long-faced man holding on to the door frame staggered and jumped forward.
"Zhuanzong, Lao Yi just sent some meat a few days ago, and you also sent some bones. You haven't finished eating them yet. Why are you here to send something again?"
Yi Chuanzong said carelessly: "Hey! Uncle Ma, it's okay, isn't it just a little bone? I can't eat a wild boar, and I can't even spend a few cents to buy it. This is the pig offal cooked that day, and then put it in
I'm afraid it's going to go bad one day, that would be so distressing, we can't waste food."
Uncle Ma nodded, then turned around and said, "Fuck you, come on, come in and sit down?"
Yi Chuanzong shook his head, "No need, Uncle Ma. I'm in a hurry, and my aunt has already prepared the meal. She's waiting for me to eat over there." Gu Hao
He poured out all the stewed food in the basin, waved his hands to the two boys who were looking outside, then turned and left.
Back at the Zhongyuan uncle's house, Yi Chuanzong began to devour the food.
"Why are you eating in such a hurry?" asked the eldest mother.
Yi Chuanzong continued to cook quickly, nodded to his aunt, and finally said: "Aunt, I'm going to the second uncle's house."
After saying that, he hurriedly rushed out carrying a piece of pork head and two bottles of wine.
The eldest mother frowned and asked, "What's wrong with this child?"
The uncle raised his eyelids and took a sip of the Dixifeng wine he just bought. After a moment of reflection, he guessed: "It's Guangtian and Guangfu who provoked him. Look at it when no one in Chuanzong has provoked him."
If you are honest, you can kill a wild boar, but you are not a loser. It’s a good thing that you didn’t do it on the spot.”
The eldest mother sat upright for two seconds and commented: "Old Liu, the eldest son of the family, looks pretty good, but the other two boys are not good at raising him."
The elder nodded, "Old Liu has a bad temper, and he is indeed a bit cruel, especially to those two boys. He is really capable of punishing him. But his family is like that, and he was beaten a lot when he was young.
."
Over there, Yi Chuanzong had already arrived at the second uncle's house. He smelled the slight fragrance in front of the door. He guessed that the second uncle's house should be stir-fried cabbage today.
Nowadays, most of the three meals are eaten at home. The four adults in the third uncle’s family can only eat two kilograms of meat a month, and they can’t eat it a few times. He must be popular if he comes with meat, so he knocks on the door several times.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
There was a small game inside, and finally after receiving the order from the second uncle, Liu Guangfu shouted at the top of his lungs, "Who is it?"
Yi Chuanzong cleared his throat, "Is the second uncle at home? I'm Chuanzong!"
The second uncle was so angry that Liu Guangfu could only stand up and open the door. He just got beaten today, how could he be disobedient?
Even after opening the door, his legs couldn't move, and he swallowed hard, all his eyes focused on that piece of pig head meat.
The furnishings in the second uncle's home are similar to those of the deaf old lady. There is also an Eight Immortals table against the wall, with a Taijun chair on each side, but there is no table on it.
There is also an Eight Immortals table not far from the entrance, which is used for eating and drinking tea. At this time, Liu Guangqi, Liu Guangtian, Second Aunt and Liu Guangfu were eating around this place.
The second uncle was sitting next to the Eight Immortals table against the wall. In addition to the cabbage, there was a small stack of dozens of peanuts on the table. He was also surprised to see Yi Chuanzong holding pig head meat and two hundred white wine in each hand.
"Chuanzong, what are you doing?"
Yi Chuanzong smiled slightly, "Didn't we make some stew a few days ago? The day before yesterday, I invited Director Wang to come for dinner. I originally called you and the third uncle, but when I called you that day, you were not at home. Yesterday, I accompanied Brother Zhuzhu.
I came back late from shopping outside, so instead of bringing you something to try, I want to have a drink with you on the way."
"Oh, I went out for a drink that day. Come on, come on, sit here." After the second uncle said this, he pointed to another Taijun chair by the wall.
This man came over with wine and food, including meat. There was no reason to rush out. The second uncle also had a smile on his face.
Yi Chuanzong smiled at the second aunt and Liu Guangqi at the table in front of him. Without even looking at the two brothers Liu Guangtian, who had their heads lowered, he walked towards the Eight Immortals table inside, and exclaimed while he was still halfway there.
: "Hey, second uncle, you are so awesome! Peanuts! Rare! I earned it this time!"
There has been a famine for the past three years. It is difficult for the people above to eat peanuts. For the people below, every household has two taels of peanuts and melon seeds with the skin on during the Spring Festival.
Although it takes a month for peanuts to come out at this time, it is really not easy to eat them!
