Throughout the whole morning, the eldest aunt and Sun Yanyan failed to please each other. Even if they tried to restrain themselves, their faces were still dark and unflattering.
The aunt and grandma were sitting there choosing vegetables. They were picking through a large pot of delicate purple milkvetch. The mother and daughter had something to talk about:
"It's twenty yuan a pound. We can eat well today."
"That's right, it's twenty! I'd say you should sell it. Mom, don't you have lettuce in your garden? It's the same thing if you just pull a few of them back."
"Yes, I think so too. Lettuce is so cheap. One is stewed and the other stir-fried. It's not cold either."
"Alas, Tantan is just like my brother, honest, and doesn't know how to do business!"
"That's right, Sancheng has been honest since childhood."
Wu Lan was waving a spatula in the kitchen, feeling happy just listening to them chatting.
She thought to herself, let's leave Song Sancheng's dishonesty aside for now, their Tantan family is really good at doing business.
Looking at the depressed faces of my sister-in-law and her daughter-in-law, I felt more and more comfortable.
At this moment, Qiaoqiao's voice came from far away from the door:
"Mom, Uncle Zhang taught me how to compost today."
"Yeah?"
Ulan also raised his voice and responded: "Then you have to study hard, our garden will depend on you from now on!"
Qiao Qiao rushed into the yard very proudly: "I will definitely study hard, I am very busy with tasks now!"
Then he saw the people in the yard again, so he smiled even more happily:
"Auntie, I didn't finish the snow cake you gave me last time, so I gave half of it to Dabai."
I turned around and saw the aunt and annoying sister-in-law from the hardware store, so I snorted and pretended not to see them.
Mao Li and Sun Yanyan were even more angry: "Tsk, how did you teach this child? He doesn't know how to say hello to anyone."
Qiao Qiao hummed: "Because I'm stupid."
"Pfft!"
Song Tan couldn't hold it back and laughed directly.
She also quickly responded: "That's right, eldest aunt, you look at your age, why do you care about children?"
When you say this, the effect of "having a big holiday" and "still being a child" is simply superimposed!
The eldest aunt turned blue from holding back again. When she saw Uncle Song walking in from outside, she also snorted coldly:
"You guys are really working hard. You didn't come back until the meal was almost ready."
Uncle Song didn't know why, and now he was puzzled and said: "My younger brothers and sisters cook, you go home and eat the ready-made food, what are you in a hurry for?"
Mao Li:......
If she hadn't lived a long time, she would really want to tear her up and go back to the city right now.
But sitting there was really frustrating, seeing all the old men sitting there smoking cigarettes, drinking ordinary big leaf tea on the mountain, and chatting, I felt very uncomfortable.
What about them? Things haven't gone smoothly all morning.
So he said unwillingly:
"Tan Tan, you are going to buy a car when you go home. This investment is not small, right? It will take a while to earn money by selling vegetables."
"I heard from your mother how many dogs you bought? Why don't you ask your sister-in-law? She has many connections and can give you a lot cheaper."
"Yes!" The sister-in-law responded quickly: "I just heard from my aunt that I bought it for three thousand yuan. Oh my, I must say it is expensive!"
It just so happened that the person in charge of cultivating the land was left to eat for the first time today. At this moment, he walked in from outside the yard and subconsciously said:
"That's not expensive! I've heard about it on the street. The dog you bought was a dog that had eaten a tiger - oh, that's a big mistake."
What the hell, a dog that has eaten a tiger?!
Then you are not allowed to eat people!
The uncle and aunt also looked over in shock, not to mention the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Song Tan, on the other hand, neither condoned nor denied. He only answered another question: "Fortunately, I didn't spend any money. My friend couldn't afford it and gave it to me."
Ouch, what kind of dog is it that has eaten a tiger?
Sun Yanyan and Mao Lijie stopped talking about dogs or not. Just kidding, even if I gave her 30,000 yuan, she couldn't get a dog that had eaten a tiger!
After thinking about it, the eldest aunt simply stopped talking about the topic. Taking advantage of the crowd, she directly said to Wang Lifen:
"Mom, what other vegetables do you have in your garden? Vegetables are very expensive in the city now. I'll dig some before I leave."
Coincidentally, there is actually a piece of the vegetable garden in front of Wang Lifen's house.
In this season, what can we have? Isn’t it just cabbage, garlic sprouts and lettuce?
The rest are small cabbage seedlings raised for Song Tan. They haven't grown yet and can't be eaten at all.
Song Youde and Wang Lifen are now eating with Song Tan and his family. There is a lot of fish, meat and vegetables. Who still remembers those lettuces?
So Wang Lifen was quite generous:
"Go and pull them all. You can finish them all."
Mao Li almost laughed out loud - milkvetch costs twenty yuan a pound, but how much is lettuce worth?
At this moment, he looked at Song Tan again: "Tandan, the milkvetch you made last time was quite delicious. Where does it grow? I'll dig some more - you won't be reluctant to part with it, right?"
Song Tan almost laughed out loud.
My eldest aunt is so funny. She asks questions openly when she wants to dig deeper. She has to beat around the bush all morning and get very angry before she gets to the point.
She also sighed regretfully: "Oh! Auntie, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Just last night, all those fields were plowed. I will plant rice in two days."
She pointed to the pot and said, "Didn't you just say it was gone? This is what's left."
Mao Li stopped breathing in an instant - you just said it was gone, she thought that this thing was everywhere in the fields, how could it really be gone?!
They came back today, but they plowed yesterday. Isn't this something that even God can't deal with?
The aunt also looked regretful: "Don't you make money from this? Why did it get turned over?"
Song Tan sighed: "I can't help it, aunt. Nowadays, people are very picky. After eating it for so long, I should be tired of it long ago."
The crowd suddenly stopped buying groceries: ...We are not tired of it.
This is true.
Auntie thought about it regretfully, and then looked at Mao Li without noticing anything:
"Sister-in-law, if you have nothing to do now, go ahead and grab all the lettuce and garlic sprouts from my mother's house. Then give me half of them."
What could Maoli say?
She is still a daughter, so how can the old lady not share the things that belong to her own land?
We just finished choosing the dishes, why do we have to let them do the work again?
But when he looked again, everyone in the yard was looking at him, and the uncle still felt that his face was dull.
"There is a vegetable market right in front of our house. Why do you have to use my mother's vegetables? Is it easy for the old couple to grow something?"
It's so embarrassing, it seems like he can't get enough to eat in the city.
But now that the words have been said, is it possible that you can still say no? Wouldn’t that be even more embarrassing?
The eldest aunt continued to have a black face.
In fact, Song Tan didn't give any spiritual energy to the lettuce in grandma's field. They could only rub it next to the cabbage seedlings.
But even if you try it, the taste should be very good. Aunt Song Tan is not happy that it is so cheap.
So she clapped her hands and said, "Oh."
"Auntie, the land I grow is not as delicious as what I grow. There are two old locust trees in the back hill of my house that are opening their buds. Don't take the lettuce. After dinner, I will ask Qiao Qiao to go to the back hill to give it to you.
Sophora japonica flower."
The eyes of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were taking the basket from the car were bright.
