Chapter 245 Liu Lao Yao

Looking at this scene, Zhou Zhi knew that the third sister must have made it clear to her family that her relationship with Liu Dachuan had stabilized to the point of being inseparable.

Maybe if I come back this time, it won't be as simple as giving the elders a look, but it will be a big deal.

The third sister said simply: "Dad, this is Liu Dachuan, who I told you before. This is Teacher Deng, an authoritative expert on Jiachuan hydropower system, who has given me and Dachuan a lot of guidance."

"Welcome." The fifth uncle shook hands first and said, "Teacher Yuan, I know you. I have heard from Third Sister many times that you help him with difficult problems and encourage her to get a diploma."

"I told Sanmei to invite you to come home and have a meal no matter what, but Sanmei said that you are very busy."

"We have a chance today! We'll have to have a good drink later!"

After talking to Deng Li for a few words, the fifth uncle looked at Liu Dachuan: "Dachuan, right? Welcome."

He said he was welcoming, but he didn't extend his hand.

Zhou Zhi put the two bottles of wine he was carrying into Liu Dachuan's hands: "Brother Dachuan, I helped you carry it all the way. You won't let me come when you finish the job, right?"

"This..." Liu Dachuan finally realized that this was the first time that his father-in-law didn't have time to prepare a gift.

The third sister was quite clever. She probably took Zhou Zhi's things as a favor without any pressure. She took the two bottles of wine and said, "Dad, Dachuan bought this for you."

"Yeah." The fifth uncle became happy now: "Let's go and talk in the main room."

On the new house foundation in winter, the main hall is still the same, with a barn surrounded by mats on both sides, filled with millet, large radishes in the lower half of the room under the shrine, and sweet potatoes on the other side of the foot of the house.

"Fifth uncle, this is Wang Laoyao, a relative from Baimi Township; this is my classmate Wei Fei, who came with us this time." After sitting down, Zhou Zhi supplemented the people he brought with him.

"Why didn't your classmate named Yang come?" The fifth uncle was concerned about Yang Helai: "How is the radish harvest this year?"

"It's good. They also have night-tide soil over there, so I think it can work. This year's harvest is really good!"

The radishes for the new house were grown from a board of radish seedlings that my aunt bought at the market one year ago. For some unknown reason, the radishes she bought that year grew big, juicy and sweet, which was a rare good quality.

.

So the fifth aunt saved the seeds and planted these radishes every year. The quality has not deteriorated over the years, and the radishes grown by people around her are not as good as this.

Zhou Zhi also asked for seeds from his fifth aunt last year, and gave them to Yang He, asking him to take them home and plant them too. This year's harvest was quite good, and Zhou Zhi no longer has to travel so far to pull radishes.

"Is it reliable for you to ask Zifeng to do that?" Uncle Wu asked another question: "Where did you get all the money to burn?"

"Ah, yes, there is such a thing." Zhou Zhi nodded: "Isn't my godfather from the cultural center? He asked me to help collect some things for the museum, and it's not all paid for by me. Where's Brother Zifeng?"

"Let's light the fire in the kitchen. The things are there too. If you don't like sitting there, go to the kitchen to find him." The fifth uncle said, "Teacher Deng and I will have a good chat."

"How about Dachuan, you can also go and help."

"Hey!" Liu Dachuan stood up obediently: "Well, Uncle Su, Teacher Deng, Ziyuan, you guys talk, and I and I will go help."

"Let's go, too, to see what good stuff there is." Wei Fei and Wang Lao also stood up.

Several people came to the kitchen together, where the fifth aunt was busy working.

"Fifth aunt, this is Third Sister's colleague, Liu Dachuan, let's see if we can help."

"No, no, I'm a guest here, how can I let you do it?" The fifth aunt was busy ordering bean curd: "I know you are coming, bean curd and cabbage moss are enough!"

Zhou Zhi looked up at the sausages and bacon on the beam: "We have killed two pigs this year, and the old bacon and sausages haven't been eaten yet?"

"That's right!" Aunt Five said with a smile, "But the bacon sausages after the Mid-Autumn Festival are the best. New bacon doesn't have this fragrance. It has already been steamed in the pot, and you can taste it in a while."

After saying that, he winked at Zhou Zhi.

Zhou Zhi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of the story about her grandma's dream of hanging bacon and sausages all over her balcony.

I just looked at the bacon sausage that had been smoked for a year and was greedy. I really didn't cooperate with my fifth aunt and my prospective son-in-law to show off the family's generosity, so my fifth aunt did the splits!

Now all I can do is continue to cooperate: "Ah, that's right... yes! It does smell good! It's smoked on the stove all year round and you don't get sick of it, so you have to have... Oops, it's seventy or eighty pounds, right?"

"It's not just the elbow, what's the look in your eyes!" When the fifth aunt saw Zhou Zhi finally coming, she smiled happily: "That's a hundred pounds!"

"I'll have to pack some for Teacher Deng to take home later." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I was just saying that I couldn't find anything to give as a gift, but this is just right, don't you think so, Brother Dachuan?"

"Yes." Liu Dachuan then took the opportunity to speak: "Hello, aunt."

"Hey, okay!" The fifth aunt's attitude towards Liu Dachuan was completely different from that of the fifth uncle. It is probably because the third sister had poured a lot of confusion into her before: "Dachuan, just treat her as if you were at your own home. You're welcome.

I'm really busy here, so it's the same as letting my elbow take you around."

The tone of his voice was also specially emphasized to include the words "take you around", just as he was coming to see the family property.

"Okay, let's just go around." Zhou Zhi had no choice but to continue to cooperate with his fifth aunt, who had a deep misunderstanding: "Where is my second brother?"

"We've been catching fish in Datian Bay." Aunt Five said, "The busier we are, the more trouble we're getting. The fish collectors will be here soon."

"Are you interested in all the fish in Datian Bay?" Zhou Zhi said he didn't understand: "The biggest fish is just over a pound, right?"

"I took over the one that sells bottom brackets. The Miao family over there loves this."

"Yes, they are going to make sour fish." Zhou Zhi nodded: "Then let's go there and have a look."

"Ah, you won't help?" Liu Dachuan is an honest boy: "Ziyuan asked us to help."

One sentence adds a lot of points, there is a lot of information here.

First, the third sister asked him to help. Actually, she just asked him to accompany her father-in-law. Unexpectedly, Brother Dachuan took it seriously, which shows that he is quite sincere. Second, the third sister's words are powerful in Liu Dachuan's place;

Third, the boys who don't care about helping in the kitchen when they first come to the house are the same as the boys who dare to show off their cooking skills when girls from the city bring them into their homes. They are all treasures.

Sure enough, the fifth aunt laughed: "No, no, you go ahead, there are too many people here to move around."

"I'll help light the fire, Auntie." Liu Dachuan was sincere and not stupid. He had deeply felt the care from his fifth aunt and decided to seize this trump card: "It's quite tiring for you to light the fire and cook all by yourself."

"That's okay. I heard that the Okawa family also comes from the countryside?"

"Yes, our family is from Baixiangwan." Liu Dachuan had already sat down in front of the stove door, gathering firewood, preparing the bean curd, adding water, and lighting the fire: "It's not far from here. Maybe my aunt knows him.

, my father Liu Xingcai is a carpenter."

"The son of Carpenter Liu in Baixiangwan!" The fifth aunt was happy: "I told you earlier, we know each other! Who is the richest person in the family?"

"There are two sisters up there."

"Youngest Liu!"
