The reason why Tang Zangyue dared to take the meat in the space was because he got in touch with Fifteen last night.
After communicating with each other, I found out that the group of "yamen servants" whose martial arts skills are not as good as Yixiantian, because they are concerned about the Xiao family's anti-reconnaissance capabilities and are afraid of being discovered, they dare not go deep into Jiuli Village and only dare to inquire nearby. The town also has connections with the yamen.
Send someone to watch secretly.
As for the villagers in Jiuli Village, who has nothing to do but comes to the end of the village at noon to smell the delicious meal in front of Tang's house?
The eyeliners were afraid of being discovered by the Xiao family, who deliberately suffered a misfortune, so they operated with such caution. But they didn't expect that their behavior had already been watched thoroughly by the front line.
Huangque knew this, and the Xiao family was now located at the end of the village. Even if they ate meat, the aroma of the meat would not reach the villagers, so they decided to let go of the meat in the space to feed the sons and daughters of the family.
Tang Zangyue glanced at the oil jar and said: "Last time, the pork belly didn't produce much oil. I'll bring back some fat meat tomorrow and refining it."
Sister Ling, who was still playing in the yard, wiped the flakes on the corner of her mouth with her sleeves, smashed her lips, and said: "Grandma, yesterday's oil residue was so good."
How delicious is it? It's crispy on the outside, and there's no meaty smell inside. It feels like you're chewing a squishy pear when you chew it. Add a little salt to it, and it's a real treat.
Even though Tang Zangyue’s cooking skills were average.
Tang Zangyue looked at this pretty girl, pinched her round face that had lost weight during the exile, and said, "It's delicious? It's delicious. I'll eat more next time."
"Grandma, you are so kind."
"That is, who is better if I am not good?"
Aunt Liu: "..." Why is the old lady still chatting with a child?
This tone sounds childish...
Aunt Liu shook off the bold thoughts in her mind and began to immerse herself in cooking.
Just right, braised pork ribs with soybean paste.
When Xiao Zhonglu and others came back, they saw a large bowl of meat and vegetables on the table. They looked like wild wolves who had not eaten meat for several years, their eyes glowing green.
Xiao Zhonglu: "Grandma, what day is it today? Are you eating meat again?"
Xiao Zhonglu tried to pick it up with his bare hands, but Tang Zangyue knocked him down with the head of his chopsticks.
Tang Zangyue didn't even blink, and said, "You've never tasted good food, have you? Look at your second brother, learn from how your second brother can keep his composure!"
Xiao Zhonglu touched the back of his hand. It didn't hurt, but he pretended that the pain was unbearable, and said: "How can it be compared with before? There is no oil in my belly, and it is really difficult to work. I know that grandma loves us!"
Xiao Zhongli looked at the bowl of plump meat with a frown on his face, which was two completely different extremes from Xiao Zhonglu's reaction.
He looked at Tang Zangyue, and after the latter nodded slightly, he felt relieved and sat down next to Tang Zangyue, next to Xiao Yuechun. He was the first to give Xiao Yuechun a piece of braised pork ribs, while the latter immersed himself in cooking the rice first.
He buried his face in the bottom of the bowl, not daring to take a breath.
Tang Zangyue was eating, and when she saw it, she suddenly said: "Is Yuechun girl getting haircut soon? It's time to talk to others, is there a young man you like?"
Others: "..." They vaguely heard teasing sounds from the old lady's mouth.
Has the old lady ever been so naughty before?
If you are not sure, listen more, take another look, and secretly observe the two parties involved.
Not only Xiao Yuechun looked reserved, but even Xiao Zhongli, who was more stable than his peers, also looked shy.
Tang Zangyue understood, "It seems that I have someone I like."
"Old Madam!" Xiao Yuechun put down the bowl and chopsticks and jumped.
After yelling, he realized that everyone at the table was staring at him.
Xiao Yuechun's head buzzed for a moment, and he ran out of the courtyard without even thinking about his job.
Seeing that Xiao Zhongli was about to pursue him, Tang Zangyue said, "Come back!"
Xiao Zhongli finally raised one foot and stopped it in mid-air.
Tang Zangyue turned around and ordered: "Sister Liu, go get a small basin."
After a while, Aunt Liu brought a big basin.
Tang Zangyue met Aunt Liu's gaze, and the latter hesitated and said: "There is no small basin at home."
Tang Zangyue didn't say anything else, and immersed herself in picking out the ribs and potatoes from the braised pork ribs. Finally, she took away at least half of the vinegared cabbage.
Others: ┭┮﹏┭┮Meat.
They feel bitter in their hearts, but they dare not say it.
Tang Zangyue handed it to Xiao Zhongli, and placed three bowls of brown rice on the big basin. She said in a leisurely manner: "While you are eating, please advise, don't starve yourself. Grandma will talk to you two alone in the evening."
"I know, I know." Xiao Zhongli stammered.
He was afraid of falling into a joke, so he ran away as fast as Xiao Yuechun.
Xiao Yuechun didn't dare to run too far. She just poked ant holes in the corner of the wall at the edge of the courtyard. She seemed to have noticed something. When she looked up, Xiao Zhongli was holding a big basin and handed it to her.
"Grandma asked us to chat while eating, so as not to starve ourselves."
"……oh."
Xiao Yuechun was indeed hungry. When she ran out, she realized that she was out of her mind. Now she took the basin without any courtesy and started to cook.
The basin of meat and vegetables was placed in the middle between the feet of the two of them. They held the rice bowl in their hands. After taking two mouthfuls of rice, they started to eat vegetables.
For a while, the two of them just focused on cooking and didn't speak.
Finally, it was Xiao Yuechun who broke the silence. What he said was not about serious matters. Instead, he said: "I don't have enough rice."
Xiao Zhongli glanced at the small half left in his second rice bowl and most of the pot of meat and vegetables, and Xiao Yuechun's hands were so clean that there wasn't even a grain of rice in the bowl. He stood up and said, "I usually scoop out the second bowl by myself.
Rice, maybe grandma didn’t notice that your appetite is as big as mine. I’ll go get you another bowl.”
Xiao Yuechun handed over the clean small bowl and said softly, "Okay."
Xiao Zhongli asked tentatively: "How about I take the time to tell my grandmother that my eldest brother and I have a big appetite, and we need to change the bowls we use to eat in the future to larger ones?"
Xiao Yuechun thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
When Xiao Zhongli came back, he couldn't hide the smile on his face, "I told my grandmother about changing to a larger bowl, and she agreed."
Xiao Yuechun also smiled.
After solving the problem of food and clothing, Xiao Yuechun couldn't laugh anymore.
She usually talks the least, but when it comes to important matters, of the two of them, she always brings up the business first. Except for the Xiao family matters, after all, she is only half of the Xiao family.
She poked the bottom of the bowl, which was clean again, with her chopsticks, and said: "Brother Li, I know you value friendship. Because of the care I gave you when you were a child, you want to repay your kindness, but repaying your kindness through marriage... the price is too heavy.
Forget it. If you meet someone you like in the future, you will be in a dilemma."
"How do you know that I only married you to repay a favor?"
Xiao Yuechun raised her eyes and met his burning black eyes and handsome face, and was speechless for a moment.
He probably doesn't know how outstanding and impressive he is.
When he was in the village, many farm girls caught a glimpse of his handsome appearance. If he hadn't been so unpopular with the Qian family, those young girls would have given him tokens for a romantic encounter.
Later, his identity was revealed.
Knowing that he was the direct grandson of the General's Mansion, many young girls regretted that they had not cared about him and was not valued by the Qian family, and the elders who had prevented their daughters from approaching him also regretted it.
Only she, because she had protected him as a child and depended on him for life, jumped over the dragon gate and entered the general's mansion.
When I went to the General's Mansion, I also went with the fifth girl, who was of the same generation as him and was raised as an adopted granddaughter.
Because of this honor, she heard a lot of gossip behind her back.
There are people inside and outside the house, all saying that she is delusional.
"Although the Second Young Master is not valued by my own mother, the person in charge of the General's Mansion is the old lady! The Old Madam raised the Second Young Master under her knees, which is beyond our reach. It is because of our flattery! Some people were born as slaves and their appearance is not satisfactory.
, His skin is also dark, how can he be worthy of the second young master who is extremely handsome? Don’t you have any self-awareness? The second young master was oppressed by the Qian family in the past, and there was nothing he could do about it. From now on, he will marry a daughter from a well-matched family.
If I were someone, I should take advantage of the general's palace to recognize this kindness and find an honest family to marry. Don't lose my wife and lose the army when the time comes."
At that time, she realized the gap between herself and Brother Li.
Brother Li is a dragon and a phoenix among people, and she is like a phoenix, but the friendship between them in childhood will maintain their relationship.
She is self-aware and does not dare to climb high.
