take a wife to support the family

Chapter 135 Vegetable Tofu Soup

Let's say that the old man Song went to the Liu family to discuss the dowry field. The Liu family wanted [-] acres of good paddy fields.

The Liu family was not very satisfied, and was a little shaken about the marriage.

The old man Song felt that the Liu family was too greedy, the [-] mu of land was much more than what their family allocated to the second child, and Xiuxiu was a girl, but she couldn't pass on the old Song family's lineage. what?

The Liu family firmly insisted that Liu Rulong of his family was going to be a scholar. In the future, Song Xiuxiu would be a lady of talent. Since she was a lady of talent, why shouldn't the dowry field also be a lady of talent?
The two families debated for a whole day, and finally agreed to accompany them to send fifteen acres of paddy fields and ten acres of dry land. The old man Song was parched and hadn't had a sip of water yet, so he walked home full of anger.

Before I got home, I heard this quarrel: the second child wants to drag the third child to justice, and the old woman is clamoring for the second child to divorce his wife-where is this all?
The old man Song was full of anger and confused, he went up and yelled at everyone, even Song Xiuxiu who was pretending to be wronged in the room: "You are a dead person, such a big thing happened at home, I don't know how to come out." Squeak?"

Song Xiuxiu said stubbornly: "My mother won't ask me to take care of it!"

The old man Song looked around, and all the neighbors seemed to be watching the show, so they cursed and drove his family into the door, closed the door and asked, "What's the matter?"

Niu still wanted to speak first, but old man Song said impatiently, "Ask Xiuxiu to speak!"

Song Xiuxiu was still a little afraid of her father, so she mumbled about the matter and added some thoughts of her own, but not too much.

The old man Song was old and smart, and he knew what was going on after listening to it, so he went to the back of the room to get a piece of firewood thick as an arm, and hit Song Haojie hard on his back and legs!

Song Haojie screamed and screamed, jumping and rolling like a shrimp, but he asked Song Haonian to be tied up, and he couldn't hide easily, and it was very miserable.

Niu Shi and Song Xiuxiu were stunned by Old Man Song's cruelty first, Niu Shi quickly rushed forward to protect Song Haojie, but was kicked away by Old Man Song, and still hit him head-on and face-to-face.

Song Xiuxiu just hid aside and trembled, not even daring to help Niu Shi.

Song Haojie’s screams, Niu’s cries, Song Haonian’s and Dong’s voices of dissuasion spread far away, and the crowd outside who were about to disperse became more and more excited, stretching their necks one by one, wanting to hear Listen to what's going on inside.

After a while, the screaming became weaker and finally disappeared. Everyone looked at each other and said, "Could it be that the third son of the Song family was beaten to death? I don't know who did it, tsk tsk!"

In the room, Song Haojie suffered thirty or forty blows, and was already passed out from the pain. His face was sallow, and there were deep and shallow bloodstains on his back and trouser legs.

Lily couldn't bear to see it, and turned her head: In the past, I didn't teach me when I made a small mistake, and I let him take advantage of it for myself. Now that I make a big mistake, it's too late to punish him.

Song Haojie has been ruined in this life.

Niu hugged Song Haojie and cried "son" and "meat". Song Haojie was her favorite, with three sons and one daughter, and none of them made her feel more distressed than him.

Now that the youngest son is almost beaten to death by the old man, Niu almost wants to fight the old man with all his heart.But in an instant, she remembered the beatings she suffered when she was young, and she couldn't help but flinch, holding Song Haojie and crying more and more miserably.

Faced with this situation, Song Haonian didn't feel complacent at all, so he persuaded his father first: "Father, calm down, even if you destroy the third child, you won't be able to make up for it, let's think about how to apologize to Mr. Chen's family." .”

He also persuaded his mother, "It's cold on the ground, I'll ask a doctor to show the third brother, you just fainted a few days ago, don't get dizzy again."

It was fine if he didn’t say anything, but when he said it, it would add fuel to the flames. Niu jumped up and pointed at him and yelled: “It’s not that you are a filthy bastard who wants to kill the third child. He can do this? How can I keep you?” Such a thing, I should have drowned you alive in the toilet back then!"

Niu's cruelty, Song Haonian, had learned a long time ago, he listened to her cursing with a sullen face, and said, "I'll send the third child to his bed."

Niu and his entourage scolded, and held Song Haojie's hand to cry, finally told Song Haonian to send her beloved young son back to the bed in the house, and told him to lie on the bed so as not to damage the wound.

Dong Shi and Song Xiuxiu came to their senses, and hurriedly went up to greet their relatives and express their concern, lest Niu Shi would think of causing trouble for them.

Song Haonian went out to invite a doctor, and he was worried about leaving Lily at home—in his opinion, it was a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. His wife was a delicate person, and she refused to be wronged easily. When the hatchbacks meet together, Lily might suffer.

In the end, he brought Lily out and saw that her face was a little tired, so he whispered to her: "I told you to rest at home, why come out again?"

Lily said: "You didn't even eat a hot meal when you came back, so make a fuss first, you don't feel bad, I do."

Song Haonian just smiled: "It's enough to have you loving me."

Lily glanced at him, and said angrily, "Go and invite the doctor, and go home when you arrive. I'll cook for you."

Looking at the current chaos in the old Song's house, one knows that no one is in the mood to cook dinner, even if they are in the mood to cook, they will not be willing to give it to Song Haonian.My husband and son-in-law feel sorry for me, Song Haonian wants to eat, it is convenient for her to come by herself.

When such a big event happened, Song Haojie was almost beaten to death by the old man Song, Lily was only concerned about her husband not eating, Song Haonian wanted to laugh, and while there was no one around, he quickly touched her face, feeling smooth The tenderness makes his heart soften.

"Go back quickly, I will go home when I invite the doctor."

Song Haonian went to the pharmacy to invite a doctor, and when he told the situation, the doctor took the medicine for bruises and hurriedly followed to Lao Song's house. Sure enough, Lao Song's house was in chaos, but he didn't know how to take care of the injured.

The doctor saw that Song Haojie's legs were bloody and bloody, sticking to his trousers, and hurriedly told Niu to cut off his clothes and trousers with scissors: "It's going to fester."

Niu muttered in a low voice, "Can't you take it off? Half-new clothes are so expensive."

The doctor said: "Your son is more important than the clothes, so hurry up and cut them!" He really didn't know what the woman was thinking of writing.

At that moment, the doctor ordered people to boil hot water and scald the wine to dissolve the traumatic medicine. The room was chaotic, and no one greeted Song Haonian. He stood there for a while, seeing that the doctor was very good at treating Song Haojie, and Song Haojie couldn't die, so he turned around go home.

The smoke in the house had already risen, and there was a scent of celery, Lily scooped up warm water to send him to wash his face, Song Haonian touched the corner of his mouth with his hand, and suddenly took a "hissy" breath.

He asked Lily for a mirror: "Daughter-in-law, your mirror is here, let me see what's growing on my mouth."

Lily stepped forward and took a look: "Oh, what a bunch of bubbles!"

He hurriedly took the mirror and asked him to look at the light, only to see a string of burning blisters at the corner of his mouth, which was red and swollen, and he looked very pitiful.

Lily sighed: "Things are more troublesome, if you are in a hurry, be in a hurry, don't get angry."

Song Haonian wiped his face: "My heart is very dry."

Don't look at him saying that as long as Song Haojie is tied up to apologize, he will be forgiven. In fact, he has no idea how shopkeeper Liu will react, and he is using his own favor to keep Song Haojie.

If he followed his idea, his friendship with Chen Bin would be exhausted, Song Haojie would learn a lesson to save his life, but Niu Shi was blocking him, so why wouldn't he be in a hurry to get angry?

Lily said: "When the sky falls, people have to eat. Take a rest first, drink a couple of sips of water, and I'll make some soup."

She had thought that Song Haonian must be in a bad mood for the past two days. He didn't buy too much meat, so he went home and ordered winter plums to chop stuffing, made dozens of dumplings stuffed with celery and pork, served with crispy, sour kimchi, A bowl of dumpling soup is refreshing and easy to digest.

She didn't want Song Haonian to get angry, blisters would form at the corners of his mouth, and it would definitely hurt badly after eating, so she thought about making a light soup to make him feel better.

The dumplings have already been put into the pot, and they will be cooked in a short time. They are bulging and rolling in the boiling water one by one. Lily cut the tender tofu into small cubes, and blanch them in the water to remove the smell of beans.

Then put it into the pot and boil, chop a handful of small green vegetables into fine pieces, sprinkle them in and roll them twice until they are cooked, thicken with a spoonful of wet starch, and add some salt after removing from the heat.

Since she had sweet potatoes at home, Lily wanted to get some sweet potato vermicelli to eat, but she was always busy. Later, she opened a tofu shop, so she had to put it aside for the time being.

However, chopping the sweet potatoes and washing out the watery starch to increase the consistency of the soup is an easy way for her.

When the food was served, the dumplings were round and pleasing in appearance, and the meat stuffing and light green celery powder inside could be vaguely seen through the skin.Kimchi is bright in color, sour and fragrant.

The white tofu and green vegetables are pleasant to look at, just add a little salt, it is clear and light, and the taste is long.

The corners of Song Haonian's mouth was blistered, and it still hurt a little after eating dumplings, but after a few mouthfuls of soup, he felt much more comfortable, and his heart was not so hot, so he asked Lamei: "When your sister and I are away, are you okay?"

Lamei said: "Everything is fine in the store, and there are Sister Caifeng and Brother Xiaofu to help look after them, so don't worry!"

She reckoned that the affairs of Old Song's family were not over yet, and that her eldest sister and brother-in-law still had work to do, so she told them to relax, as she was watching over the house.

Lily smiled and said, "Our Lamei is also very capable now."

Lamei didn't believe it at first: "Where can I do it?" Then thinking about her timid appearance before, she couldn't help laughing, "I was like that before, thank you for being able to bear it."

She is still timid and shy now, but she can settle accounts, make tofu, and cook a few home-cooked dishes. She can also get two needles in piercing flowers. Not bad.

"Whoever you want to see, or who is pestering you, come and tell us if you want to, don't learn from Xiuxiu." Song Haonian warned his sister-in-law again and again, fearing that his sister-in-law would do something stupid too.

Lamei blushed: "How can I do that!" She didn't have the guts to flirt with other men in private.
