258. Chapter 258 Tian's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law
It was the next day that Liu Pinting met Sister-in-law Tian's mother-in-law.
The old man has been bedridden all year round. For the sake of her mother-in-law's health, Mrs. Tian would often carry the old man to the door to bask in the sun. When Liu Pinting got up in the morning, the old man was already sitting at the door. After a slight hesitation, she walked up with a smile.
He greeted me in front of me: "Good morning, Granny Tian."
"Are you the girl who Zhuangtou introduced to live in our house? You are really handsome, but the conditions at our house are simple, which makes the girl feel wronged." The old man smiled kindly, and his temper did not become withdrawn or angry due to being sick all the time.
I was irritable, and when I saw how polite Bingting was, I almost treated her like a distinguished guest.
Liu Biting said politely: "It was a little late when I came yesterday. I was afraid that it would disturb your rest, so I didn't go over to say hello to you. I also asked my mother-in-law for your forgiveness. Sister-in-law Tian should have told you that we, the master and the servant, will meet you."
I will continue to bother you for a few more days, I hope my mother-in-law won't find it troublesome."
Granny Tian hurriedly said: "As for the girl, as long as the girl doesn't mind being shabby, she can stay as long as she likes. My old lady welcomes her very much. It's just that our family is poor and there's nothing to say to her. I hope the girl won't dislike it."
"How could that happen?" Liu Pinting said with a smile.
Just as he was talking, he saw Mrs. Tian coming out of the kitchen with a pot of sweet potato soup and a plate of steamed buns with cornmeal in her hands. Ziyu and Laner were followed behind them, holding bowls and chopsticks in their hands. See you there.
She, Mrs. Tian who was walking in front, immediately greeted warmly: "Girl, are you awake? Just in time, come over for breakfast. The conditions at home are not good, there is nothing delicious, so I cooked some soup with sweet potatoes and steamed some corn buns.
, you must not dislike it." After saying that, he filled a bowl of sweet potato soup, took another cornmeal steamed bun, and walked to Granny Tian to feed her.
"Let's eat with the guests first. I'm not hungry." Seeing this, Granny Tian quickly signaled to Sister Tian to put the corn buns back and just drink some sweet potato soup.
Liu Pinting had her own dowry village in her name. She had helped Prince Heng's Mansion take care of several villages in the countryside before. She knew that ordinary farmers only received a small portion of food every year, not to mention just a little sweet potato soup.
A corn bun can feed a family for several days in the countryside, especially corn buns, a type of pasta that is rare for a family to eat. She immediately said: "Grandma Tian, you don't have to be polite to us. We had dinner last night."
We are all very full, and we are not very hungry yet. However, this sweet potato soup looks very appetizing. I have never had it before. Lan'er, please serve me a bowl and I will try it.
"
"Okay." Lan'er responded, then picked up a spoon to serve the soup and said, "Miss, I haven't eaten it before. I don't know, but these sweet potatoes are very sweet. They are soft and waxy, and they are extremely delicious."
It's not that Liu Pinting has never eaten sweet potatoes, it's just that she has never seen sweet potatoes boiled and eaten like this. Regardless of her previous life or after time travel, she still likes the taste of roasted sweet potatoes.
Hearing this, Grandma Tian hurriedly stopped her and said, "How can that be done? The girl is from a good family. Sweet potato soup is usually fed to pigs in wealthy families. The girl is accustomed to drinking it, but she still eats it.
Order the corn buns!”
Liu Pinting could feel the old man's sincerity and said with a smile: "Grandma Tian, you're really welcome. This sweet potato soup looks delicious when I look at it. It smells delicious too. I'm really craving for it.
You can't stop me from trying it. I've eaten corn buns before at home, but they're nothing new, so I'll leave them to Erniu and Huzi."
