Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 10896

Erni stood on tiptoe and couldn't help but pull open a corner of the bundle. When she saw the colorful dolls inside, Erni jumped up with excitement.

This scene fell in everyone's eyes and they all laughed.

Mrs. Yu Zhong touched Er Ni's hair that was yellow due to malnutrition, and her face was moved: "This is too expensive..."

The eyes of the villagers who were watching were all bright at this time. They sighed and sighed that the Yu Zhong family was about to change their fortunes. If they met such a rich, generous, and loyal nobleman, their lives would be easier in the future. Got it!

Even more tempting and annoying.

Because Yang Huazhong and his family braved the severe cold and heavy snow to enter the village that day. Some of them lived on the roadside at the entrance of the village, but they actually saw Yang Huazhong and his family.

But because they were strangers and they were too lazy to mind their own business, they took a quick look and closed the doors and windows without wanting to pay any attention to them.

I even joked with my family, saying that it was so cold that I was covered with a tattered quilt on the kang at home, and I felt inexplicably comfortable when I saw people rushing outside. The tattered quilt suddenly made me feel warmer than usual!

It turns out that happiness comes from comparison!

But now, they are very upset. If they had not been selfish and warm-hearted at that time, and entertained Yang Huazhong and his family, then all the things in the yard would have been sent to their own yard.

Hey, happiness comes from contrast, and so does pain!

There were far more than one or two villagers who had this idea. Suddenly, the sky above the small courtyard of Yu Zhong's house was enveloped in a strong feeling of envy and jealousy...

After the last thing was moved, Wang Liang called Yu Zhong and his wife into the main room alone and took out several red envelopes.

"This is the New Year's money given to several children by my uncle and aunt. I tell you to accept it!"

This time, Yu Zhong and his wife looked at each other, and then they reached out their hands to push the red envelope back almost at the same time. They said in unison: "This is really not possible, you absolutely can't have it!"

Wang Liang said with a smile: "My task is to bring the things. I don't care about the other things. I can't take them back."

"If I take it back, my uncle, aunt, and Mrs. Luo will definitely not be happy, and they will blame me for not doing things well."

"Maybe you'll have to send me back one more time. Uncle Yu Zhong, aunt, just think you're showing sympathy for me and accept it!"

Yu Zhong and his wife really had no choice but to accept it.

Next, Mrs. Yu Zhong rushed into the kitchen to get food for Wang Liang and the others.

Yu Zhong used all his housekeeping skills, and even mobilized several children and the neighbors who were watching. They hugged their arms, legs, and closed the door. This really left Wang Liang and the others at a loss. .

There was no choice. In the end, Wang Liang could only discuss with Yu Zhong: "Uncle Yu Zhong, your good intentions are good. You don't want us to go back on an empty stomach."

"But every household is busy during this twelfth lunar month, including ours. We still want to get home before dark. It's difficult to walk at night."

Yu Zhong nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, don't cook, I'll tell your aunt to make it simple, just put some food in your stomach and you can go on the road!"

"By the way, I'll also feed your horses some fodder and water so that they can take a breather."

Wang Liang and the others all cherish horses because they are their strength and old companions.

After hearing this, several people discussed it with their eyes and decided to follow Yu Zhong's arrangement and stay to rest their stomachs before going on the road.

Yu Zhong immediately happily invited them to sit at the table in the main room, and started walking with hot tea, melon seeds, and shredded tobacco...

In the kitchen, Mrs. Yu Zhong was extremely busy. Fortunately, Dani was helping to fill the firewood, so she didn't have to be distracted.

Erni also helped with other small tasks. The small kitchen was smoky, and after a while, the fragrance overflowed.

The things that Mrs. Yu Zhong used to greet Wang Liang and the others were not taken from the things sent by Yang Huazhong and the others, but she used her own things to entertain them.

Just in the past two days, they went to a nearby market town and bought twenty kilograms of pork and two fish.

These things were almost taken away by several creditors before.

Now, Mrs. Yu Zhong cut two kilograms of pork belly and cut it into thin slices. Put rapeseed oil and garlic, ginger and chili sauce in the pot. First stir-fry until the aroma is fragrant, then add the pork belly and start to stir-fry to get the fat. Then add soy sauce, vinegar, salt, water, etc., and after boiling, add the gnocchi inside.

Cover the pot and simmer until it boils, then pour in a large bowl of egg liquid, cover the pot and continue simmering. When it comes out of the pot, sprinkle a handful of green chopped green onions and use a large open bowl to hold the noodles.

"Ernie, call your dad to serve the noodles."

"Mom, I'm hungry."

"You're not hungry. When the guests finish eating, Mom will prepare something delicious for you."

"Okay!"

Erni shook her two braids and ran to call Yu Zhong.

Soon Yu Zhong arrived, placing five bowls of noodles neatly on a wooden tray.

"Hey, there are four brothers. How did you make five bowls?" Yu Zhong wondered.

The mother-in-law smiled softly: "There is another bowl for you. You can eat it with the guests."

This is also a part of the host's hospitality, allowing the host to eat together, so that some more reserved guests will not be unable to let go, and will eat more bites under the guidance of the host.

Yu Zhong smiled and said: "Daughter-in-law, you are starting to be tough now, okay, I will accompany you!"

Yu Zhong took the tray and left.

Several children, except Dani, all rushed to the pot and stood on tiptoes to look at the contents of the pot.

The youngest one curled up his mouth and almost cried, "It's gone, the pot is gone..."

Mrs. Yu Zhong covered the child's mouth and said, "When the guests leave, I will give you a meal. You have to be good."

The child held back his tears again.

Mrs. Yu Zhong watched Er Ni and the others go to the door of the hall and quickly pulled them back.

"Just stay in the kitchen and don't leave."

My own children know very well that these little guys are really hungry for meat slices and gnocchi, and they only want to eat this kind of good food during the holidays.

Meat costs money, and noodles are even more expensive. Apart from mud and tree roots, what else are you stuffing into your mouth these days free of charge?

In the main room, Wang Liang and the others ate very quickly, and they were probably really hungry. They were all exhausted in less than a bowl of tea.

Then with a swipe of his lips, he thanked Yu Zhong and his wife, took the empty carriage, and embarked on the return journey without delay.

Yu Zhong followed behind and asked them to take nothing back to Yang Huazhong and others.

With pearls and jade in front, nothing will look good.

So Yu Zhong just asked Wang Liang and others to send a message back to Yang Huazhong and others, asking them to come to his house for a meal when they returned to the capital in the first month.

Wang Liang and the others promised to take the message with them, and gradually walked away on the official road...

When Yu Zhong returned home to a group of curious inquiries and envious gazes from the villagers, he found that several children each had a small bowl on the table in the main room. Each small bowl was filled with sliced ​​meat and noodles, and they were eating and drinking. , all with faces full of intoxication and satisfaction.

The mother-in-law was packing things nearby. When she saw Yu Zhong coming back, she said, "I knew you were pretending to be my companion. A bowl of food is not less than two yuan."

Yu Zhong said: "I can't eat it."

The mother-in-law pouted, who are you kidding? How can I not eat such good food? Isn't it just deliberately reserved for a few little guys to eat?
