Then wash the winter melon sacs you took out, add some minced garlic, sesame oil, vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, and a little salt, and mix it together until it is smooth and refreshing.
A bowl of pheasant stewed with wild mushrooms, a large bowl of spicy diced rabbit, a plate of fried birds, a bowl of braised winter melon slices, and a bowl of cold winter melon capsules.
In addition to Zhang Yang and Zhang Lihua, the people from the Zhang family were old Deng and Miao, as well as Zhang Zaohua and Shi Dan'er. Zhang Laodou didn't come, and Zhang Hugua also went to town and didn't come back.
Including Mr. Yuan from Song Qiu, and Aling, there were eight people in total and a child over one year old who couldn't eat much. Each of them had a bowl of dry rice on the table, and they ate so comfortably.
Everyone wished Song Qiu a happy birthday one by one, with Song Qiu taking the lead, and by the way, he also wished Zhang Lihua a happy birthday in advance.
All the dishes in the bowls were eaten cleanly, and there was nothing left.
There was laughter and laughter in the Song family kitchen and the fragrance was rich. In the upper room of the Zhang family next door, Zhang Laodou looked at the dough with only a little bit of oil in front of him and sighed softly.
When Zhang Hugua came home carrying a jar of wine and humming a little tune, the Song family had already finished their lunch. Old Yuan was busy preparing the land, while Song Qiu and others continued to skewer peppers.
Zhang Hugua called old Deng in the vegetable garden, mother, and went straight to the back room.
Zhang Laodou was lying on the bed. When he saw his youngest son coming back, he couldn't help but ask, "Have you met your elder brother? How busy is he with his studies recently?"
He has been lying down for so many days and has not come back to see him.
Zhang Hugua put the wine in his hand in front of Zhang Laodou, "I see, I see, my eldest brother has been busy recently. He said that we will participate in the poetry gathering organized by Ge Fuzi during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and we are working hard to compose poems. Otherwise, by that time
If you can't do it, won't you embarrass Song'er?"
"He didn't have time to come back to see you, dad, so he asked me to bring it for you. He will come back after he has been busy for a while. Look, dad, this is the wine that my eldest brother specifically paid me to bring back for you, dad. It's
Dad, your favorite drink!"
Zhang Hugua tried his best to say nice things to Zhang Gugua, but in reality, Zhang Gugua was not busy with his studies. It was just that he took him to the theater today to listen to a play. He was in the theater at that time, so he benefited from it.
Is there anyone who can help big brother?
When Zhang Laodou heard this and looked at the wine, his dissatisfaction immediately disappeared, "You want to participate in the poetry meeting organized by your in-laws? That is a big event, and you should really take it seriously."
At the moment, the Zhang family has just made an engagement with the Ge family, setting the wedding date. They haven't officially entered the house yet. Here, Mr. Zhang has already called himself his in-laws.
Seeing that his father's anger had subsided, Zhang Hugua happily completed his eldest brother's errands. Then he remembered what his eldest nephew had said, and his eyes turned cold.
"Dad, Zhang Yang is back again. Look at him day by day. He leaves whenever he wants and comes back whenever he wants. He really takes himself seriously! But what do you think of us?"
"I've heard people say it, and some people saw it with their own eyes. Zhang Yang was taking people to eat at Jingweizhai! He ordered a table full of dishes, and he looked so proud.
Where is Jingweizhai? A table of dishes costs five taels of silver. Dad, tell me, where did Zhang Yang get all this money?"
"I heard that he has been working as a gangster in the town for the past few years, but no one knows what he is doing. What if he commits murder and arson behind our backs? Don't implicate us then. If this person commits a crime,
That would be a disaster for the whole family.”
"I told you, dad, you don't care about him. This guy needs to be disciplined. How can he be so cool? If you don't, dad, you might as well separate him and set up his own business. He has no home anyway, so don't drag us down!"
Zhang Laodou was confused when he heard this. He was now annoyed with Zhang Yang. He wanted to get rid of it but couldn't get rid of it. It made him unable to sleep well every night.
"You said he went to Jingweizhai to eat?" Where did this kid get his money?
In these years, this kid has often been homeless. He only knows that he works as a gangster in the town. He doesn't know what he does. But can he afford to eat Jingweizhai when he is idle and idle?
Zhang Laodou was also confused.
You can go to Jingweizhai and spend a few taels of silver casually, but how much money do you still have in your hands?
When I think about this kid having money to use for himself and not wanting to take it home, I really can't control it.
That money should have been his, but he raised a brat and yet he dared to be unfilial!
Then I thought, could he be committing murder and arson behind the scenes? How else would he have this money?
Zhang Laodou thought further. His eldest grandson would be an official in the future, and he had a cousin who committed murder and set fire. This reputation was not good.
Also, if the eldest grandson becomes an official and this kid takes advantage of his power to do something with the eldest grandson's name, won't that affect the eldest grandson's official reputation?
Give him the good grandson of Zhangjia Guangzong Yaozu, and he will not allow anyone to get involved!
Just branch out?
Zhang Laodou clenched his back teeth, he was not willing to separate people, and he had to die in the Zhang family.
Want to take the surname Li and start your own business?
Don’t even think about it!
He will have to give his surname Zhang for the rest of his life, and when he dies, his memorial tablet will have to be engraved with Zhang Yang instead of Li Yang!
He wanted Li Dachui to never have any incense and inheritance! Only then could he relieve his resentment.
Zhang Laodou's eyes turned cold, and the murderous intention in his heart became even more obvious.
He looked at the younger son in front of him. The eldest son and the third son were not around. This younger son had listened to him the most since he was a child. Some things were the most in line with his wishes.
He is not in good health, and there are some things that he cannot do himself, so he can only leave them to others.
Zhang Lao Dou's eyes were unpredictable, "Fourth brother, come here and listen to what dad is telling you."
After a moment, Zhang Hugua stepped back with a look of surprise on his face, "Dad, are you really going to do this?"
Murder... is illegal!
"What? You don't listen to dad?" Zhang Laodou said in a tone of voice.
Zhang Hugua shook his head hurriedly, "Listen! Why don't you listen!"
Then he thought that he was not his nephew anyway. He would have to rely on Song'er in the future, and if he didn't rely on him, a little gangster would only cause trouble for the family. It didn't matter if he died!
Finally, he said with a certain expression: "Dad, don't worry, just leave it to me. I'll go to the Ping An Market later!"
"The mice are making a lot of noise at home. Remember to tell the woman who sells mouse medicine that you need to get enough medicine, otherwise the poison of the mice will not kill you and it will be annoying." Zhang Laodou said quietly.
There was a stench coming from the toilet in the Song family's backyard. Aling covered his nose, pulled up his pants and walked out of the toilet.
Separated by a fence, you can just see the back room window of the Zhang family's upper room in the backyard next door.
Aling moved his eyes and ears, his eyes seemed a little confused and a little surprised.
Then he walked back to the front.
"Ah Ling, what took you so long? I thought you fell into a trap!" Zhang Lihua, who was stringing peppers, saw Ah Ling coming out, shook her hand, and joked with her with a smile.
After spending so many days together, she even boxed with A Ling every morning, and they had become very familiar with each other. Now she was used to having A Ling as a family member.
While Aling responded to her, he caught a glimpse of Zhang Hugua leaving the upper room and hurried outside.
She couldn't help but smile and said: "Lihua, your fourth uncle is very busy every day. I think he is rarely at home."
Old Mrs. Deng and Mrs. Miao were in the vegetable garden nearby. Zhang Lihua didn't want to say bad things about her fourth uncle, so she just smiled and got over it.
Zhang Yang, on the other hand, was not afraid of anyone. He answered, "It's quite busy. Being the microphone is also quite hard!"
Ah Ling was stunned when he heard this, and glanced at Zhang Yang suspiciously, wondering if this man had a good ear.
