Chapter 16 Who are you

In the stove, the burning wood was crackling, and the laughter of several children echoed in the kitchen. Zhou's face was also peaceful. Now she really believes what Xue'er said, and her family's life will be smoother. It would be better if Xue'er's father could come back, the family lived a prosperous life.

Hongxue opened the pot and saw that the fish soup had turned milky white, so she put some salt into it.After stirring evenly, cover the pot again so that the fire can be turned off.

Hongxue chatted with everyone for a while, and saw that the fire on the stove was almost used up, and it would be more fragrant if there were some chopped shallots sprinkled on it, but the onions at home were used up yesterday, so it was hard to go to Fang's house to get them again, so they put Just a moment.

But that's it, the milky white soup with the fresh straw mushroom fragrance, the fragrance is enough to make people mouth watering.

"Here we come, dinner is ready!" Following Hongxue's yell, several children gathered around and poked their heads to look into the pot.

There are a lot of fish meat, white and tender, with milky white soup, it is very delicious at first glance.

Hongxue scooped up a big bowl of fish for each of the siblings, and let them drink soup after they finished eating the fish.He brought another bowl to Mrs. Zhou.

Seeing the children eating happily, Zhou's eyes were filled with relief, but he didn't move his chopsticks.

"Mother, don't worry about eating. There's enough fish. I've already left a bowl for Aunt Sun and the others." Hongxue knew what she was thinking when she saw Zhou's expression, and all her thoughts were written on her face. !

"Hey, mother knows that Xue'er is the most sensible..."

It's just that before Mrs. Zhou finished speaking, she heard a woman yelling outside the courtyard: "Girl Xue, what good things did you make at home, so delicious?"

Hongxue frowned and looked at Mrs. Zhou, only to see Mrs. Zhou looking at her worriedly, "You know it yourself."

At the moment, I was in a daze: how would I know?But she didn't ask that because it was unnecessary.

A woman with freckles broke into the kitchen, stretched her neck to look into the pot, but was blocked by Hongxue.

"Excuse me, who are you? Why did you break into other people's house without permission?" Hongxue asked in a cold voice.His mind was also churning rapidly, trying to find out the information of the woman in front of him, but he felt very familiar and couldn't piece it together. He only remembered that the original owner seemed to be quite afraid of her.

When Gao Mushi heard that Hongxue asked who he was, surprise flashed across his freckled face, and then he said to Hongxue with contempt: "What did you say that you didn't know me? Could it be that you are afraid that I will rob you?" Is your family not good enough to eat? Or is it that you were beaten into a fool by Jiang’s family, and you don’t even know me?”

Hongxue rolled her eyes secretly: You won't steal food from my house?Then what are you doing in other people's kitchens?
Before she could speak, Mrs. Zhou said coldly, "Ms. Zhiping, what are you doing at my house?"

Zhiping Niang?Could it be that this woman is Gao Zhiping's Niangmu clan? No wonder the original owner was so afraid of her in his memory, it turned out that he was afraid of being bullied!

But now Hongxue is not in a good mood to pay attention to her, brothers and sisters are still drinking fish soup, don't be disturbed by this woman.At the moment, he said coldly: "Does what we eat have anything to do with you?"

"How could it be irrelevant, I smell delicious!" Mrs. Mu continued to look at it with a greedy face.

Are you still eating? Are you here to grab food?She's so greedy, who would believe it!But I don't blame her, anyone told Hongxue before to send whatever delicious food she had to Gao's family, so I don't know how many beatings she has endured, and she still refuses to change, not to mention that Mrs. Mu came to ask for it in person.

"If it smells good, Aunt Mu, just take a few more sips, and get out as soon as you smell it." Hongxue said bluntly.

"Hey... I said, how do you talk to the elders, girl?" As he said, he pouted with some dissatisfaction, "I said, girl Xue, if you have good things, you can't eat them all by yourself. You should give them to your uncle, aunt, and sister Zhen." Let's go?" Gao Yuanzhen is the youngest daughter of the Mu family.

Hongxue sneered in her heart, she didn't know where Mu's got such a thick skin, and went to other people's house to ask for food.

"Aunt Mu, have you finished talking? Get out of here quickly." Hongxue felt impatient, and if she continued to linger like this, the soup would be cold.

"Okay, okay, remember it for me, there will be times when you regret it!" Seeing that it was not cheap, Mrs. Mu walked towards the outside very reluctantly.While walking and cursing.

After driving away Mrs. Mu, Hongxue felt that the room suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were on her.

"Xue'er, you kicked Zhipingniang out just like that..." Mrs. Zhou said in surprise.It's not that she's afraid of the Mu family, it's just that her daughter likes his son, so she offended her like this, and it's hard for her daughter to explain in front of Gao Zhiping.

"What else?" Hongxue said mockingly, "Do you treat her to fish soup? Or, as she said, send the fish soup that was originally left at Aunt Sun's house to their house?"

"But Gao Zhiping..."

"Mother, I was wrong before. The only good thing the old lady of the Jiang family did this time was to wake me up." Hongxue looked at Mrs. Zhou seriously, and assured her, "Hongxue with Gao Zhiping at the center died. From now on, only Hongxue who is working hard for her own life will live, I have so many younger siblings, and a mother who loves me, how can there be such a man who does nothing for nothing."

"Bah, bah, bah..." Mrs. Zhou bawled several times, and said angrily: "You are my daughter, you are my daughter. Now that you have figured it out, I am relieved. It's not mother who said, that kid Apart from knowing a few words, you don’t know anything else, and if you really marry in the future, but if you want to be their family’s cow or horse, Mother would have disapproved of it a long time ago.”

The current Zhou family has a deep prejudice against scholars. At the beginning, she herself married Jiang Zaian, who could only study, but what kind of life did she live in Jiang's house? Now that her husband is gone, her in-laws still want to sell her She is afraid that her daughter will go down the same path in the future.

"Okay mother, I got it, you can eat it quickly, I'll send the fish soup to Aunt Sun's house, it won't taste good if it gets cold." Hongxue didn't want to continue this topic anymore, scooped a bowlful from the pot Seeing that there was still a bowl of fish soup left, I also filled it out and asked Hongshuang to deliver it to Grandma Fang's house. They usually take good care of themselves.

Zhou listened to her daughter's arrangement with a smile, and didn't stop her: Hongxue has really changed now. Could it be that she has really experienced life and death to become so thorough?Thinking of this, she felt sore again.

The fish soup that Hongxue sent to the Sun family this time was well received by the entire Sun family. Taking advantage of her unpreparedness, she also gave Sun Ruhe, who had been paralyzed on the bed for many years, the pulse, and found that he just broke his leg that year. Failure to treat in time resulted in such serious consequences today.

I made up my mind to go to the town tomorrow to get some medicine for him to recuperate his body, and when his physical strength improved, he would use the bone-setting technique passed down by his previous family to set his bones.

I believe that standing up again is only a matter of time.
