Chapter 10896
Erni stood on tiptoe and couldn't help but pull open a corner of the bundle. When she saw the colorful dolls inside, Erni jumped up with excitement.
This scene fell into everyone’s eyes and they all laughed.
Ms. Yu Zhong touched Er Ni’s withered and yellow hair due to malnutrition, and her face was filled with emotion: “This is too expensive...”
The villagers who were watching were at this time. Everyone's eyes lit up, and they sighed that the Yu Zhong family was about to change their fortunes. If they met such a rich, generous, and friendly nobleman, life would be better in the future!
Even more tempting and annoying.
Because Yang Huazhong and his family braved the severe cold and heavy snow to enter the village that day, and some of them lived on the roadside at the entrance of the village, they actually saw Yang Huazhong and his family.
But because they were strangers and they were too lazy to mind their own business, they took a quick look and closed the doors and windows without wanting to pay attention.
I even joked with my family, saying that it was so cold that I was sleeping on the kang at home with a tattered quilt covering me, and looking at people rushing outside, I felt inexplicably comfortable, and the tattered quilt suddenly made me feel warmer than usual!
It turns out that happiness comes from comparison!
But now, they are very upset. If they had not been selfish and warm-hearted at that time, and entertained Yang Huazhong and his family, then all the things in the yard would have been sent to their own yard.
Hey, happiness comes from contrast, and so does pain!
There were far more than one or two villagers who had this idea. Suddenly, the sky above Yu Zhong’s small yard was enveloped in a strong feeling of envy and jealousy...
Waiting for the last thing After moving, Wang Liang called Yu Zhong and his wife into the main room alone and took out several red envelopes.
“This is the New Year’s money given to several children by my third uncle and my third aunt. I ask you two to accept it!”
This time, Yu Zhong and his wife looked at each other, and then they reached out their hands to push the red envelope back almost at the same time. They said in unison: "This is really not possible, and you absolutely cannot want it!"
Wang Liang said with a smile: "My task is to bring the things. I don't care about the other things. I can't take them back."
“If I take it back, my uncle, my aunt, and Mrs. Luo will definitely not be happy, and they will blame me for my incompetence.”
“Maybe they will send me back again. , Uncle Yu Zhong, Auntie, just take it as a sign of sympathy for me.”
Yu Zhong and his wife really had no choice but to accept it.
Next, Mrs. Yu Zhong rushed into the kitchen to get food for Wang Liang and the others.
Yu Zhong used all his housekeeping skills, and even mobilized several children and the neighbors who were watching. They hugged their arms, legs, and closed the door. This really made Wang Liang and the others were all at a loss.
No choice. In the end, Wang Liang could only discuss with Yu Zhong: "Uncle Yu Zhong, your good intentions are good. You don't want us to go back on an empty stomach."
"But every household is busy in this twelfth lunar month. , so is our family , I still want to get home before dark, it’s hard to walk at night.”
Yu Zhong nodded repeatedly: “Don’t worry, don’t cook, I’ll ask your aunt to make it simple, just put some food on your stomach.” Can hit the road! ”
"By the way, I will also feed your horses some fodder and water, and let them take a breather."
Wang Liang and the others all cherish their horses, because they are the strength of their feet and strength. Old man.
Hearing this, several people discussed it with their eyes and decided to follow Yu Zhong's arrangement and stay to rest their stomachs before going on the road.
Yu Zhong immediately happily invited them to sit at the table in the main room, with hot tea, melon seeds, and shredded tobacco...
In the kitchen, Mrs. Yu Zhong was very busy, Fortunately, Dani was helping to stuff the firewood, so she didn't have to be distracted.
Erni also helped with other small tasks. The small kitchen was smoky, and after a while, the fragrance overflowed.
The things Mrs. Yu Zhong used to greet Wang Liang and the others were not taken from the things sent by Yang Huazhong and the others, but used her own things to entertain them.
Just in the past two days, they went to a nearby market town and bought twenty kilograms of pork and two fish.
These things were almost taken away by several creditors before.
Now, Mrs. Yu Zhong cut two kilograms of pork belly and cut it into thin slices. Put rapeseed oil and garlic, ginger, and chili sauce in the pot. First, stir-fry until the fragrance becomes fragrant. Then, add the pork belly and begin to stir-fry to get the fat. Then add soy sauce, vinegar, salt, water, etc., and after boiling, add the gnocchi inside.
After the pot is covered and simmered, pour in a large bowl of egg liquid, cover the pot and continue simmering. When it comes out of the pot, sprinkle a handful of green chopped green onions and use a large open bowl. Pretend.
"Er Ni, call your dad to serve the noodles."
"Mom, I'm hungry."
"If you're not hungry, wait until the guests finish eating. Make delicious food for you.”
"Okay!"
Erni shook her two little braids and ran to call Yu Zhong.
Soon Yu Zhong arrived, placing five bowls of noodles neatly on a wooden tray.
"Hey, there are four brothers. How did you make five bowls?" Yu Zhong wondered.
The mother-in-law smiled gently: "There is another bowl for you. You can eat with the guests."
This is also a part of the host's hospitality, allowing the host to eat together, so that some more reserved guests will not be unable to let go, and will eat more bites under the guidance of the host.
Yu Zhong smiled and said, "Daughter-in-law, you are starting to be tough now, okay, I will accompany you!"
Yu Zhong walked away with the tray.
The children, except Dani, all rushed to the pot and stood on tiptoe to look at the contents of the pot.
The youngest one curled up his mouth and almost cried, "No more, the pot is gone..."
Mrs. Yu Zhong covered the child's mouth and said, "When the guests leave, I will give you a meal. You have to be good."
The child held back his tears again.
Mrs. Yu Zhong watched Er Ni and others go to the door of the hall and quickly pulled them back.
"Just stay in the kitchen and don't leave."
My children know very well that these little guys are really hungry for meat, noodles and gnocchi. This kind of good food can only be eaten during the New Year. I only want to eat it once during the holidays.
Meat costs money, and noodles are even more expensive. Apart from mud and tree roots, what else are you stuffing into your mouth these days free of charge?
In the main room, Wang Liang and the others ate very quickly. They were probably really hungry. In less than a bowl of tea, they were all gone.
Then with a swipe of his lips, he thanked Yu Zhong and his wife, took the empty carriage, and embarked on the return journey without further delay.
Yu Zhong followed behind and asked them to take nothing back to Yang Huazhong and others.
With pearls and jade in front, nothing will look good.
So Yu Zhong just asked Wang Liang and others to send a message back to Yang Huazhong and others, asking them to come to his house for a meal when they returned to the capital in the first month.
Wang Liang and the others promised to bring the words to them, and stepped on the official road and gradually went away...
When Yu Zhong returned home to a group of curious inquiries and envious gazes from the villagers. , I found that on the table in the main room, several children each had a small bowl, and each small bowl was filled with sliced meat and noodles. They were eating and drinking, with faces full of intoxication and satisfaction.
The mother-in-law was packing things nearby. When she saw Yu Zhong coming back, she said, "I knew you were pretending to be a companion. A bowl of food is not less than two yuan."
Yu Zhong Said: "I can't eat it."
The mother-in-law pouted, who are you kidding? How can I not eat such good food? Isn't it just deliberately reserved for a few little guys to eat?
