Most of the people in this big room are people named Jiang. They talk to each other and it seems quite lively, but most of them are at odds with each other. Ten people have twenty different ideas.
As Jiang Xinyu was about to get married, and Widow Wang threatened to leave half a pig for her, she was also the subject of intense questioning in the room.
Hearing that she was even given twenty yuan for "tea money", Ma Meili felt envious and jealous in her heart! When her family wanted to marry Pandi, her son-in-law's family gave her a total of ten yuan.
Jiang Baoqin was also very upset. Jiang Xinyu's future mother-in-law wanted to leave half a pig for Jiang Xinyu, but her mother-in-law, whom she had never met before, did not prepare anything for her. She was obviously a stepmother, but she had no face at all and ignored her stepson.
ask.
"Sister-in-law, the banquet will be held soon. How much do the Chen Yi family plan to give as a gift? Have you discussed it yet?"
After saying this, Old Man Jiang looked over with bright eyes, "Xinyu is a good-looking girl. Two hundred yuan is not too much, but two hundred yuan is too low!"
Jiang Xinyu lamented that she was only worth two hundred yuan, but also lamented that "the old man really knows how to speak like a lion"!
Is she worth two hundred? Ah, this is not a question of whether it is worth it or not.
Two hundred yuan is already a huge sum of money these days! Nowadays, wages are generally around 2, 30, or 40 yuan. Two hundred yuan is a worker’s income in the past ten months, and he doesn’t have to eat or drink!
Does the old man think too highly of her?
Chen Xiuyun glanced at Old Man Jiang and said speechlessly: "You have the nerve to open your mouth. Her family can give her any amount. Chen Yi is a good boy. I will recognize this son-in-law no matter how much he gives. It's not like he's selling his daughter, so how can he ask for it?"
Regardless of whether the money was large or small, she was ready to let her daughter take it back.
Old Man Jiang smacked his lips, thinking that Chen Xiuyun was stupid for not seizing such a good opportunity to ask for money. However, he couldn't be Chen Xiuyun's boss now, which was a pity, so he didn't continue talking.
After talking about Jiang Xinyu, Old Jiang looked at Jiang Yuzhu again, "Yuzhu, you've been in the county for so long and you still don't have a partner? If you can't find one, I'll introduce it to you and I'll definitely find it for you..."
"Cough cough cough"
Chen Xiuyun coughed several times with a pulled face and looked at Old Man Jiang warningly.
Old Man Jiang reluctantly closed his mouth.
The eldest daughter-in-law even bought him a pack of cigarettes this year. He can't offend anyone again.
Jiang Xinyu looked at the old man's aggrieved look and found it very amusing. Mrs. Li was not here, and her mother was now a person with some weight in the Jiang family. The old man even looked at her face before speaking.
After talking about this and that, more than half an hour passed. Chen Xiuyun stood up and said, "I have to go back to cook. We won't eat here tonight. After dinner, we will bring the children to pay New Year greetings."
Ma Meili enthusiastically sent the people to the door and watched them walk away before returning.
Jiang Xinyu looked back and really felt that her second aunt was sometimes good and bad. It wasn't that she was bad, but she was too careless sometimes. When she didn't care, she was quite cute.
After the fish scales were cut, Chen Xiuyun made cuts on the fish, then spread salt on it and marinated it first.
Xiaochuan, who came back from having fun with his cannon, washed his hands and washed the cabbage.
"Mom, can't you make dumplings with white radish today? I've eaten enough cabbage."
Jiang Yuzhu also nodded quickly. She had eaten enough cabbage.
Xiaochuan hurriedly said: "I, I, I didn't eat enough cabbage dumplings."
The cabbage and meat dumplings are so delicious, he can never get enough of them and his mouth is watering just thinking about them.
Jiang Yuzhu said deliberately: "Then you can just eat pure cabbage dumplings today, we will eat radish meat."
Xiaochuan's smile froze on his face, with an expression that made him want to cry. Jiang Xinyu laughed out loud.
At the strong request of her two daughters, Chen Xiuyun chopped white radish meat into dumpling fillings.
Every household has saved for the whole year, so there is no need to save during the New Year.
At noon, I extravagantly braised a big black fish with sugar and fried a plate of eggs. After all, the washed cabbage was stir-fried with meat, and a cold dish of kelp, vermicelli and carrots was made, and it was served with white steamed buns and fried dough sticks stuffed with red dates.
Sugar cake, several people had a full belly for lunch. Today Xiao Hei also
Mixed with corn grits rice with broth.
After dinner, Chen Xiuyun made some noodles and asked her two girls to make dumplings, while she prepared the others.
Jiang Yuzhu chopped the dough and rolled it into dough. Jiang Xinyu wrapped the dumplings quickly.
She can make pastries, but her hands are still a bit raw when making dumplings. In order to make the dumplings look good, she pinches them very slowly, and each dumpling has a thick area with several overlapping layers.
While she was carefully wrapping the dumplings, Chen Yi came with a bowl of sugar-oiled fruit. The fruit was still steaming, and it looked like it had just come out of the pot.
"What is this?"
The outside is burnt brown and decorated with sesame seeds. It is bite-sized and smells sweet.
"My mother just fried it, called Tangyouguozi, and asked me to bring it to you to try."
Jiang Xinyu opened her mouth and said, "I have no hands, please feed me."
Jiang Yuzhu on the side admired the little sister's nonchalant attitude, "Why don't you let him chew it and then feed it to you?"
Jiang Xinyu quit and scolded with a smile: "You are so disgusting."
Jiang Yuzhu also laughed: "If you are so disgusting, get out of here."
Chen Yi shook his shoulders and smiled vaguely, and decided to stuff Jiang Xinyu's mouth with food.
When Jiang Xinyu was about to reply, a fragrant sugary fruit was stuffed into her mouth.
She chewed it, and the warm sweetness exploded in her mouth. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sweet but not greasy. Compared with the sweet candy cake, this sweetness was much milder and tasted great.
"It's delicious, you all should try it."
Xiaochuan has already been drooling with greed.
Chen Yi looked down at the dumplings she had made and immediately smiled. They both made the same dumplings. There was a small piece in the folded area that was obviously thicker than the rest. The thickness of the dumplings he made was even and it looked good, but look at it.
Not as good as his clumsy craftsmanship.
Chen Xiuyun invited him to eat melon seeds and peanut candies. He grabbed a small handful of them and talked for a while before leaving.
Chen Xiuyun said: "Two days before the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, you should pack up all your things. Take everything that should be brought to Chen Yi's house in advance, so as not to be in a hurry."
Jiang Xinyu swallowed the food in her mouth and said dissatisfiedly: "I can tell that you want to kick me out now."
Chen Xiuyun said deliberately: "The water that your married daughter throws out will be spilled by you morning and night. Just throw it out quickly and you won't annoy me."
Jiang Xinyu couldn't believe it, "Am I not the little cotton-padded jacket that you love the most? This is how you treat your little cotton-padded jacket!"
Jiang Yuzhu had goosebumps all over her body, and said a little irritably: "Speak normally to me, no one in our family is Chen Yi, who can bear this?"
Jiang Xinyu grunted and expressed her dissatisfaction. What is this like? What happened to Chen Yi? He obviously enjoyed being with her, okay?.net
Also, her second sister is really not in a good mood lately. Without Zhou Qi’s letter, she has become a grumpy sister!
