Chapter 426 Tofu and Apricot Blossom

Author: Zhuli Qingcha

Huang Yulian thought deeply about it, and after thinking about it for a while, she became distracted when doing business.

Lin Liqing looked at the sky and saw that it was getting late. The couple had to rush back to the city. When Yan Jianjun heard that they were leaving, he immediately said, "I'll take you back on a tricycle."

"No! Just Jianguo ride a bike and take Liqing back. We'll ride a car back in the evening." Huang Yulian didn't give Yan Jianjun a chance to sneak away at all.

Yan Jianjun suddenly felt like he was mourning for his heir, and he was listless. Huang Yulian didn't care, but if he neglected the guests, Huang Yulian would definitely hurt him. As a result, the couple had many quarrels throughout the day, and the business was not as good as usual.

Huang Yulian held her breath and went to open the store the next day without speaking to Yan Jianjun, let alone calling him.

Yan Jianjun was so happy that he continued to go down to the village to make tea. However, Huang Yulian did not come back when it got dark. He waited for a long time, and only Yan Mingqiang and Yan Qiaoqiao came back. He hurriedly asked: "Where is your mother?"

Yan Qiaoqiao replied: "Mom said she will stay in the hotel and never come back, leaving dad to live on his own. Dad, is the food ready? We are hungry."

Yan Jianjun's heart suddenly went cold. He thought that Huang Yulian was just getting into a temper with him, as usual, but he didn't expect it to be serious this time. He hurriedly pushed his bicycle and went out in a panic.

Before leaving, he told his brothers and sisters: "I just cooked the porridge, not the dishes. You just deal with it as you please. I'll persuade your mother to come back first."

Yan Mingqiang quickly stopped him, "Dad! It's already dark, and you can't see the way out clearly at this time. If you have to go out, I'll go with you and bring the flashlight."

Yan Jianjun waved his hand, "You can watch your sister at home. I'll leave first."

Yan Jianjun almost rode his bike based on feeling. He didn't dare to speed up until there were street lights at the intersection. By the time he arrived in town, it was almost eight o'clock.

There is no night market or anything like that at the moment. When it gets dark, there are almost no people on the streets, whether in rural areas or in towns. Only restaurants and some roadside stalls have been confiscated.

He bought some fried rice cakes on the roadside and sent them to the clothing store, but they were rejected. Since the store was closed, he couldn't see what was going on inside, so he could only knock on the door repeatedly, "Yulian, Yulian, you

Open the door, I'll take you home."

Huang Yulian, who was laying the floor in the store, ignored Yan Jianjun at all, turned over and closed her eyes.

Yan Jianjun knocked for a long time and called in all the people living nearby. As a result, Huang Yulian refused to open the door. He was so anxious that his eyes were red and he choked up: "Yulian, I know I was wrong. I will help you from tomorrow on."

You look after the store, don’t be lazy anymore, just open the door.”

A grown man came over late at night to admit his mistake and begged in a low voice. Everyone else felt soft-hearted and followed suit.

There was so much noise outside, how could Huang Yulian in the store not hear it? She was really annoyed, so she opened the door and rushed over, roaring like a Hedong lion, "What's the fuss about? Now that I know it was wrong, why did I go there earlier! Not yet."

Get out of here, you will be embarrassed!"

Yan Jianjun immediately put away his tears and slipped in through the crack in the door.

Grandma Wu, who lived in the alley behind, saw that everything was okay, so she smiled and said: "Okay, okay, the couple had a fight at the end of the bed and at the end of the bed. As long as it's okay, everyone should leave!"

Huang Yulian heard the commotion just now clearly, and knew that Aunt Wu was really worried about the two of them breaking up, so she never dared to go back. She felt sorry, and quickly opened the door and called out to Aunt Wu, "Aunt Wu, it's all my fault.

Don't worry, it will affect everyone's rest at night. These are the fried rice cakes he just bought. You can take some back to eat."

Grandma Wu said she didn't want anything, "You can keep it for yourself. I've finished dinner and am going to bed."

Huang Yulian didn't dare to let Grandma Wu walk back in the dark, so she quickly called Yan Jianjun to use a flashlight and sent Grandma Wu back together.

When it gets dark, the alley looks like it's been stained with thick ink. You can't see your fingers, and it's eerily quiet. Grandma Wu's house is in the back of the alley, and she lives alone. That's why Huang Yulian is so worried.

The two sent Grandma Wu into the house and found that the place where Grandma Wu lived was very small. It was probably a house that separated the inside and the outside. They had people eating outside and sleeping inside, giving them a clear view.

Grandma Wu knew that Huang Yulian and his wife were curious, so she explained: "My house is an old house, and it is the same as the one next door. After my parents-in-law passed away, I divided this room. When the children get married, they will build their own house and will not live here."

"Do they live far away?"

Because Grandma Wu's situation was very similar to Liu Cuifeng's, Yan Jianjun was also a little more interested in her.

Grandma Wu laughed and said: "Not far away, at the other end of the street, my son and daughter-in-law also set up stalls in the market, one sells vegetables and the other sells meat. The meat and vegetables I usually eat are sent by them.

But they are quite busy, and they always come and leave. I am old and my eyesight is blurry, so I can’t help them. I can only help by taking care of myself.”

Grandma Wu talked a lot again, maybe because no one usually talked to her, but when two people came rarely, she talked a lot.

Huang Yulian took the opportunity to ask about Tofu Xinghua, "Auntie, do you know the mother and daughter who sell tofu in the vegetable market?"

Grandma Wu was a little surprised, "You are asking about Xinghua and her daughter Xiaowei, right?"

Huang Yulian nodded vigorously.

Grandma Wu was happy, "Then you have asked the right person. When I go to the vegetable market, I will buy nothing but tofu. Everyone likes tofu made from apricot blossoms."

Huang Yulian frowned, "Is it really that good? Then how could the tofu I bought her at the beginning of the year be bad? It tastes so good."

"Ah? That's impossible! Xinghua is not that kind of person." Naturally, Granny Wu would not think that Huang Yulian had slandered Xinghua, but began to think about the reason. After thinking for a while, she patted her thigh and asked, "What do you mean?

Isn’t the beginning of the year not long after the Chinese New Year?”

Huang Yulian nodded.

Grandma Wu sighed, "What a sin! I'll explain to her that Xinghua's life was not good. She lost a man at a young age, so she gave birth to a daughter, Xiaowei. They were the mother and daughter doing all the dirty work in her husband's house."

made.

The Cai family has been making tofu for generations, and it is quite famous there, so all the brothers can make tofu, and even their married wives follow suit. Xinghua's life is difficult after the man is gone, and she has to help make tofu in the middle of the night.

, but none of the money earned belongs to her.

Just like this, her mother-in-law still said that the mother and daughter were living a free life. Xinghua had to beg her mother-in-law's family to come forward. After some hard work, her mother-in-law's family allowed her to set up a stall by herself, but the price was to help her man's brother make tofu. Tell me, she

Just one person, how can he be so busy?

Fortunately, she is also someone who can endure hardships, so she should grit her teeth and hold on, and then she saved some money. At the end of last year, her mother-in-law said that she had seen a marriage for Xiaowei and asked Xiaowei to get married. Xinghua asked someone to inquire about it, then

The family was really not that good. The man broke his shoes with the widow and his reputation was ruined. Her mother-in-law was just interested in the betrothal gift they gave her.

Xinghua resisted for the first time and ended up having a falling out. Mother and daughter were kicked out, but they still had to live, right? So that period was difficult. Her regular customers all knew about her situation, so they told her that the weather was cold.

It doesn't matter if you can't sell out the tofu, you can sell it to everyone at a cheaper price.
