farm daughter-in-law

Chapter 59

Uncle He went back first in the bullock cart, and He Sheng stayed behind to help harvest the dates. With his participation, Zhang Xihua and He Yuanyuan only needed to squat on the ground to pick up the fallen dates, so the remaining jujube tree would soon be gone. tidy up.

He Yuanyuan stared at her brother eagerly, with the intention of staring at a flower on him, but unfortunately He Sheng didn't bring out the candy figurine she wanted to eat, she pursed her mouth, and stared at her brother very aggrieved.

When he returned home, He Yuanyuan faced He Sheng with an angry attitude. What was my sister-in-law thinking, because she didn't say it, and Zhang Xihua didn't know what was going on. She just wondered why my sister-in-law was suddenly upset.

He Zeng first handed over the money he got today to his mother for safekeeping. There was only such a son by his side, and he had just got married. Shi feels that it is more at ease to control the money by himself.

The mother and son talked for a while in the room, He Zeng thought for a moment, and decided to count out a hundred coins from his purse as before, handed it to his son, and said, "Take it and spend it yourself."

When He Sheng hardly used money on weekdays, but every time the family made money, He Zeng would give his son and daughter a small sum of money for them to use freely.

This is also to train the children's ability to handle money. According to He Zeng's usual observations, all the money of his eldest son is locked in the wooden box in his room. Except for the cost of buying cheap paper and pens, he hardly spends much.As for the little girl Yuanyuan, all the money was used to buy needles and threads, hair ropes and flowers, and odd snacks, etc. It is estimated that there are not many pennies left.

In the entire rural area of ​​Daliang Town, it is rare to see a woman as shrewd as He Zeng's. Because of her shrewdness, the family lives well, and the family members get along harmoniously and warmly all the time.

As for why He Zeng had some troubles when choosing his daughter-in-law, He Zeng rubbed the space between his eyebrows. She didn't know that Xiangqin's heart was so big. With a sigh, He Zeng didn't want to think about it any more.After hesitating for a moment, he took another hundred Wen from his purse and said to his son, "Give it to your daughter-in-law."

When He Zeng gave the money, he thought more deeply.Daughter-in-law is always the one who wants to live with her son for the rest of her life, if she is not treated better, if she is like those mother-in-laws in other families who always treat her daughter-in-law as a thief, every penny can't wait to be deducted into her own hands, there is no need to separate mother-in-law and daughter-in-law She said that she may also instigate her son to be divorced from her, and the young couple is more likely to try to hide private money, and even make the house unsafe.

He Sheng was slightly stunned, and after regaining consciousness, he quickly took the money from his mother for his wife, and after talking for a while, He Zeng sent his son to wash up.

When Zhang Xihua got home, she first took back the dustpan that was drying on the roof in the morning. Those small fish and shrimp were already very dry. After the moisture was reduced, there was only about a rice bowl left. Eat it three times, add some ingredients such as onion, ginger and garlic, it is also a delicious meaty dish.

Of course, she doesn't plan to get it to eat today, the grass carp that father-in-law caught yesterday hasn't been cooked yet, Zhang Xihua plans to make a dish with all her heart.

The staple food here is mostly cornmeal, sweet potato rice, etc., which are tasteless or sweet, and must be suppressed with pickles, so the taste of the people is generally biased. Every household has to grow soybeans to make soy sauce at home. Zhang Xihua poured soy sauce out to burn grass carp , add ginger slices, garlic cloves, and dried chili to taste.

When the smell came up, it immediately floated out from the stove and reverberated around He's house.He Yuanyuan immediately groped into the kitchen, and happily said: "Sister-in-law... when will the cooking be done? My belly is going to be flattened by hunger."

Zhang Xihua turned back with a smile and said: "Hurry up, go pick up the bowls and chopsticks and go to the main room."

He Yuanyuan happily picked up the bowls and chopsticks of the five people, poured water into the water tank and rinsed them for a while, before the dishes were served, the bowls and chopsticks were neatly placed on the dining table.

He Sheng washed and changed his clothes, then walked silently into the main room, sat down and waited for dinner, met He Yuanyuan's brother and sister, He Yuanyuan pouted dissatisfiedly and said: "Brother, didn't you buy anything back today?" ?”

He Sheng asked suspiciously, "Didn't the things I bought be put into the kitchen together?"

He Yuanyuan was surprised: "What? What did you buy?" Without waiting for He Sheng to answer, he hurried into the kitchen and asked anxiously, "Sister-in-law, did my brother buy a bag and come home?"

Zhang Xihua couldn't move away, she casually pointed to the bamboo basket beside her and said, "Put it there, I haven't had time to see what it is."

These things were all placed at home by Uncle He along with the ox cart, and they were all household items that He Zeng asked his son to buy.

With anticipation in mind, He Yuanyuan finally found the carefully wrapped deep-fried glutinous rice cake from among two jars of salt and a pack of brown sugar.He Yuanyuan immediately smiled happily and said, "Oh, brother, it's true, you didn't even tell me in advance."
