Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11621

Zhao Liuer's daughter, Da Niuniu, loves to eat eggplant the most, such as minced meat eggplant, mashed garlic eggplant, and fried eggplant with beans. Every year when this season comes, this girl relies on eggplant to go with rice.

For this reason, Zhao Liuer planted a lot of eggplants in the vegetable garden at home. However, it was not enough for the child to eat. The child wished to eat eggplants for three meals a day.

Not only does this child like to eat eggplant, Yang Yongzhi also likes it. They are truly father and daughter. Even their taste in food is exactly the same!

So at this time of year every year, even if Zhao Liuer grows a lot of eggplants, they are still not enough for the father and daughter to eat.

Look, Mrs. Liu sent so many large and tender green-skinned eggplants at once. Not only was Zhao Liuer filled with gratitude, but also Da Niuniu, who was combing her hair, had her eyes light up.

"Fourth Grandma is so nice. I like her."

The girl is about to be ten years old, which is the age when girls are very talkative. When Liu heard these sweet words, she immediately smiled.

"Oh my, it's really caring to raise a little girl. Look at her chatterbox. She makes me, the fourth grandmother, feel sweeter and choking than if I had drunk two bowls of honey water."

Fourth Grandma caressed her chest, and happiness was reflected in every fine line at the corners of her eyes.

"Fourth Grandma knows that you like to eat fried eggplant with long beans. Come, Fourth Grandma will grab you a handful of long beans and ask your mother to fry them for you. They are best eaten with rice when they are spicy!"

"Thank you, Fourth Grandma. You are the best grandma in the world!"

"Oh my, this little mouth is so sweet, I feel like I'm floating..."

Liu looked up and down at Big Niuniu, and in her mind compared her with Little Niuniu from Yang Yongqing's family next door.

When these two girls were young, the older girl was more introverted and didn't talk much, but when they grew up, she became more talkative.

The little girl from Yang Yongqing's family loved to talk when she was little, and she is still the same when she grows up.

But the way little Niuniu and big Niuniu speak is a little different. Big Niuniu is sweet-mouthed to everyone, especially outsiders. But in front of Yang Yongzhi and Zhao Liuer, she is still a little willful. Who's because they spoil her?

But little Niuniu's words are directed at Yang Yongqing. Outside, little Niuniu appears to be more quiet and reserved than big Niuniu.

I guess it has something to do with the way their mothers brought them up!

But when Da Niuniu's sweet words fell into Liu's ears, even though Liu knew they were childish and false flattery, as long as the words sounded nice, who cared how true or false they were? As long as she enjoyed them!

Although Liu felt so relaxed that her bones softened, Zhao Liu'er could not bear to listen any longer.

Just then, Da Niuniu's braids were combed, so Zhao Liuer stood up and poured tea for Liu.

Glancing at the eggplants and beans on the table, Zhao Liuer did not pour tea from the teapot, but replaced it with a clean tea bowl and grabbed the tea leaves from the jar to make tea for Liu.

"Aunt Si, come and have some tea."

"Hey, why don't you just pour me a bowl of tea from the teapot? Why bother with grabbing tea leaves?"

While Liu was saying words of refusal, she had already reached out to take the tea bowl.

The tea bowl was a little hot, so she held the bowl and sat down at the table, asking casually about rules that everyone knew, such as "Yongzhi went to the Taoist temple early in the morning," but her eyes swept over the cabinets where bottles and jars were placed, especially on those containers that might contain snacks, and she would linger for a moment, like an infrared scanner.

Zhao Liuer hadn't reacted yet, because her attention was still on the eggplants and beans on the table. She was thinking in her mind that she might as well just fry two eggplants for her daughter at noon.

The rest will have to be saved for Yang Yongzhi to eat when he comes back at night. By the way, my brother seems to be going to town tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to buy incense paper, candles and other things for the Taoist temple. I wonder if these eggplants and beans can be saved until the day after tomorrow? Then I can fry a bowl of it and ask my brother to take it to the town school for Honger?

"Cough cough..."

It was not until Mrs. Liu coughed twice that Zhao Liuer came back to her senses.

"Aunt Four, why don't you drink some tea? Moisten your throat." Zhao Liuer greeted her hurriedly.

Liu smiled and said, "I have a strange problem."

Zhao Liuer's expression tightened slightly, and her face showed a little more concern: "What's wrong with you?"

Liu said: "I have an empty stomach and don't have breakfast in the morning. If I drink too much tea, I will have heartburn and feel uncomfortable all day long!"

what?

Zhao Liuer rolled her eyes and quickly grasped the key point of Liu's words.

"That's easy. Just wait, Fourth Aunt." Zhao Liuer turned and walked to the cupboard, took down an iron can, grabbed a handful of black sesame peanut candy from it and placed it in front of Liu.

This handful was very solid, weighing about half a pound. They were snacks that Zhao Liuer's brother Zhao Damao brought back from the town for his niece.

The black sesame seeds are very fragrant, and the peanut crumbs are very crispy. The syrup made from this year's seasonal wheat is used as a binder. After being manually compressed and shaped, they are cut into thin square slices while still hot.

Each square piece is about half the size of a palm. When you are craving for food or hungry, eat two pieces and your mouth will be filled with fragrance and sweetness. It is so delicious.

Zhao Liuer usually was reluctant to share her gifts with others. Even when the two children from her younger brother-in-law Yang Yongqing's family, who lived next door to her, came to play, Zhao Liuer would not easily share them.

Big Girl is also very naughty. She usually hides in the house to eat.

But at this moment, Zhao Liuer took it out to entertain Liu.

When Liu saw the black sesame peanut candy in front of her, her saliva almost got out of control.

Liu didn't stay here for long. She put the black sesame peanut candy in her pocket and left.

She came to the backyard and saw Yang Huamei hanging clothes out to dry under the porch in the yard. It was drizzling today, so she had to hang clothes out under the porch.

The room was a little stuffy. Tan and Guihua were pacing back and forth on the corridor outside the east room door, each holding a baby. Especially Tan, who was humming some earthy tune with unrecognizable melody and lyrics in the dialect of Mianniu Mountain to coax the baby.

Seeing Liu coming back from outside with a basket of vegetables, Tan and Yang Huamei were a little surprised.

"Fourth sister-in-law, I thought you hadn't gotten up yet. Turns out you've already walked around the vegetable garden. You're so early!" Yang Huamei spread out a piece of clothing and greeted Liu with a smile.

After experiencing so many things and changes, Yang Huamei is no longer the same Mei'er as before.

If they had lived next door to the Liu family in the past, there would have been a huge quarrel.

And now, the two sides actually get along pretty well. Of course, this so-called pretty well is only limited to being polite to each other on the surface.

When we meet, we say hello and chat for a while.

The three kids cried and made noises at night, disturbing the sleep of Liu and her family across the street. The next day, Yang Huamei would apologize when she saw them, and then give Liu some snacks as compensation.
