Ugly peasant girl in space

Chapter 235 The Second Uncle's Family (1)
After the marriage recognition ceremony was over, the new daughter-in-law Fu Caiyun couldn't take time off and helped her aunt Liu to tidy up the kitchen. Qingli took stock of the bowls and chopsticks, and took her second cousin Mo Zihua to deliver them from door to door.

"Brother Huazi, you will be the next one to get married."

Qingli looked at her second cousin, Mo Zihua, who was about the same age as her eldest brother. He looked flexible and hardworking. Whoever married a man from their Mo family would be blessed.

"Zigui must have reached his age."

"My parents let my eldest brother be admitted to the scholar and are considering marriage."

Qingli had a premonition that her eldest brother would definitely not get married so early, thinking of him being with a village girl, she felt awkward no matter how she thought about it, and her temperament was completely out of the ordinary.

"I still need to find someone who is educated and reasonable."

Mo Zihua agreed, and he also felt that he might not be able to find a suitable girl in eight villages.He and Qingli had the same idea.

The two chatted and went door to door to deliver bowls and chopsticks. Those who borrowed bowls and chopsticks were given a pack of pastries as a gift, which made many villagers give them thumbs up. The Mo family is very kind.

Qingli found that she and her second cousin, Mo Zihua, also had a lot of common topics. He could also give a lot of opinions about the restaurant, and the last time I ate a barbecue, he was interested in cumin, and recently went to the town to buy it. He has been asking about this condiment all the time, and he is really careful to think of it in advance when he will run out of it no matter how much he buys.

It's just that to buy such cumin, I still have to find the shopkeeper of the seasoning shop last time. He can come in, which means that there is a channel. At least in other places, cumin is recognized as a seasoning.

In the twelfth lunar month, it was really cold day by day. The rivers in the village were frozen with thick ice. People who did not have wells usually filled big basins with snow and put them in the stove. After the snow melted, they boiled hot water for drinking. .

Thanks to the lack of pollution in this era, the snow is also clean. It is recorded in the travel notes that there are some ladies from rich families in the north who specially collect the falling snow on the branches of plum blossoms to make tea. It is said that there is a faint plum blossom in the tea leaves. The aroma is really very particular.

On the main road of Mojia Village, you can often see plum blossoms in full bloom, but they are all white. After being crushed by the snow, you can’t see anything, and there is no such beauty as described in the book.Qingli also went to collect those Luoxue to make tea, and was ridiculed by the third brother Mo Zisong for a long time because of this, saying that she was hypocritical and poor.

The fact is that everything in the travel notes is deceptive, there is no fragrance of plum blossoms, but the snow on the branches is cleaner than the snow on the ground.

Although the weather is cold, it still cannot match the joyful atmosphere of the New Year. Every household, no matter how good or bad the conditions are, hangs red lanterns at the door. Especially at night, those red candlelights reflect the white snow in the mountain village, bringing people It is not cold, but a kind of warmth.

In the past two days, my aunt often came and went from home, and there was no work in winter. There was a hardworking daughter-in-law, Fu Caiyun. After the pig was slaughtered, she had nothing to do every day, so she came to do some needlework with her mother Liu.

Yesterday my little sister Mo Guilan was picked up by her uncle who just came back from working in the town, and she paid for it for a long time, and her father didn't look good on him. According to the rules, a married girl can't spend the New Year at her mother's house, unless Being divorced or divorced, my sister-in-law's mother-in-law is stingy and mean, but my sister-in-law is good, simple and honest, and kind. It's all caused by partial parents. If he doesn't pay attention at home, my sister-in-law will also be unlucky.

Mother Liu also prepared a lot of food for my sister, bean sprouts, sausages, bacon, frozen fish, and a few packets of frozen tofu from Qinglifa. Little, let the little uncle feel even more ashamed.

Today is the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month, and it is also the last day of the market in the town. After today, all the shops are officially closed, and they will not open until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The family has made preparations early for the market, and parents must Go to the town, first send Er Ni to the courtyard of the town, let her stay there for the New Year, and distribute red envelopes to Zhang Bo, Zhang Danian and the others. The cloth and cotton have already been given to everyone, and the new clothes for the New Year should be bought early it is done.

Qingli received another gift from Zhao Wanchun yesterday, she, second sister Qing Qiang and cousin Mo Qingju all had gifts, but this time it was different, what was given to cousin Mo Qingju was an embroidered picture of peonies blooming The second sister, Qing Qiang, got a pair of twisted silk silver bracelets, exquisite workmanship, and gave her a small box of food, all cakes made by the magistrate's cook.Because she gave something again, Niang Liu was still very embarrassed because she returned the gift. In the end, Qingli put the woven magpie climbing net into it, and gave some local products of her own, all kinds of mountain products, which were not worth much, just Just a thought.

Just after breakfast, Fushun drove over to pick him up in a carriage. It was Chinese New Year, and no one at home was going out, so he was told to come on the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, and his mother, Mrs. Liu, wanted to bring gifts and go back to her natal home to have a look.Today, father and mother are also going to make the final purchase, and spend the money they earned from selling things in the town. Qingli asked mother to buy some big bones and ribs with meat. There are pork belly in the house. There are not many of them, and now sauerkraut is gone After marinating, stew some big bones, add frozen tofu, put a kang table on the pit in cold weather, and drink some hot sauerkraut soup, this is Qingli's long-cherished wish.

Not long after the parents left, there was another noise in the yard. The second sister Qing Qiang looked at Qing Li who was lying motionless on the kang, shook her head, and got off the ground by herself.

"Uncle, why are you here?"

"Haha, this is not here to give money!"

Uncle Liu Guangren rubbed his hands, and was led by the second sister Qing Qiang to the main room. When Qingli heard that his uncle was coming, Qing Li hurriedly got off the ground to make tea, and also brought out some homemade spicy peanuts, rice sticks and other snacks entertain.

"It's really cold today, my jaw is freezing."

The uncle held the hot teacup in his hands, and he took it easy, the wind was like a knife scratching his face, making his face a little stiff, and he couldn't move his mouth when he was speaking.

"Uncle, when you come here, are all the goods sold out?"

There will be no market from tomorrow, and all the people in the village will officially have cat winter. Even the salesmen will not come to the village to shout in such a cold day. People who have been busy for a year should have a good rest during the Chinese New Year. The family gets together and enjoys a family relationship.

"No, thanks to you and Shanzi this time, all the goods are sold out, and the stock that was originally accumulated in the previous year has also been sold out!"

Liu Guangren was very happy. It is not easy to be a salesman. If the goods you buy are not good, you will throw them in your hands if you can’t sell them. The second time, because his stuff was fresh, he didn’t give any money when he bought it from Qingli and Mo Zishan, so he had more cost to buy it, and the style was novel, which meant auspiciousness, and the best sellers in Fengyang City , All were sold out yesterday. In order to save money for a day's accommodation, he drove all night, and then arrived at Mojia Village, already shivering with cold.
