Chapter 450
In the afternoon, Mrs. Lin not only bought pig’s trotters, but also bought some milk. She said that there are dairy farms around the capital, and the milk here is cheap and fresh. She looked good and bought them together. .

Li Mei'er used to use goat's milk to make dim sum, but now she was very happy to see the milk, so she made Shuangpi Nai and Jiang Zhuang Nai for the family's afternoon snacks.

Li Meier has always been good at making desserts, so she sat down with Mrs. Li, Mrs. Jiang, and the two younger ones to eat desserts. Jiang Shanqing and Li Yan didn't like sweets very much, so they didn't call them.

Mrs. Li naturally ate with her two eldest grandsons first, and gave each of Brother Kang and Jian a small bowl of hot Shuangpi Nai.

Brother Jian is more than two years old now, and it is the time to eat food. Except when he is sleeping, he basically never stops talking all day long. This worries Jiang, and he is really afraid that he will make his second son a chubby boy.

Li Meier gave another big bowl to Mrs. Li, and urged, "Grandmother, don't patronize them, you can eat too."

"I eat a lot of lunch, so I'm not that hungry." Although Mrs. Li said so, she still enjoyed the filial piety of her granddaughter, took the spoon, and said while eating, "Don't dare to eat this good thing all the time. Hey, there are eggs and sugar in it, hey, it's been a good life for the past few years, if you don't eat this bowl, you won't feel so bad."

While chattering, the old man said again, "It's just that there are less honey beans, just put more honey beans."

Li Meier said, "You still eat honey, you just need to be more careful with your teeth. I see many people who are only 45 years old, just eat too much sweet, and their front teeth start to shake. When going out to talk and laugh, they have to cover their mouths with a handkerchief. Afraid of being ugly."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Li had something to say, and said very proudly, "Our family's teeth are hereditary, and my mouth is still good. My eyesight is not too bad, and I can still do needlework when the sun is good." Speaking of this, he scooped up a spoon of Shuangpi Nai and asked Jiang, "Is your ancestor's teeth okay?"

Mrs. Jiang was a little depressed, thinking why her mother-in-law couldn't make it through, and said, "I heard that my grandmother still hasn't lost one of her eighty top teeth." Very good.

Mrs. Li nodded reassuringly, and said to Li Meier, "I can rest assured, but your grandmother's teeth are not very good. When your mother first married into our family, your grandmother's molars were not good, and she often had toothaches. You Uncle often goes to Ping'an Hall to get painkillers for your grandmother to eat."

Mrs. Jiang felt a toothache when she heard this. Li Meier felt that she should help her mother talk, so she narrowly said to Mrs. Li, "That's when my grandmother just found out that my mother has a tricky mother-in-law. Hurry up!"

Mrs. Li scolded with a smile, "Damn girl, talk nonsense! We used to have eight neighbors, who didn't know that I treated your mother like my own daughter." She didn't forget to ask Mrs. Jiang, "Isn't it?"

Jiang was amused, "Yes." It's true that one thing is one thing, and her daughter is helping her "revenge".

After talking for a while, after eating snacks, Li Meier went to pick up the pig's trotters for dinner. She didn't know if she could have her menstrual period if she ate the pig's trotters.

In the evening, the men also ate together. Looking at the many dishes of pig's trotters on the table, Li Yan asked with a smile, "Why do you suddenly think of buying pig's trotters?"

Jiang Shi glanced at her daughter, smiled and said nothing.

Li Mei'er naturally wouldn't expose her faults, so she kept her head silent, and in the end it was Li's old lady who said, "I think Brother Kang wants to eat, so I asked Ah Lin to buy some."

Brother Kang had already gnawed on a pig's trotter until his mouth was full of oil, and he still had the mind to speak, so he just nodded his head and said "hmm" a few times as he agreed.

Li Yan also smiled and didn't say anything, and scooped up a bowl of pig's trotter and soybean soup. His daughter's cooking is really good, and she knows it's delicious just by smelling it.

Jiang Shanqing seemed to know something, he gave Li Meier a meaningful look, and thoughtfully put several pieces of pig's trotters in her bowl, causing Li Meier to glare.

The next day, Brother Zhang's official school was on vacation, so he came over and explained that he would take his cousin to the city for a stroll, so as not to be bored at home when he came to the capital.

Li Mei'er wanted to go, but Jiang Shi was a little worried, after all, she was not familiar with the place here.

Jiang Shanqing said from the side, "Auntie, let me go with Mei Meier."

Jiang quickly said, "You still have to study."

Jiang Shanqing smiled, "I've been studying for all these years, but it's not at this moment. I also want to visit the capital, but I always feel bored at home."

Brother Kang, Brother Jun also wants to follow, but Brother Kang still has to study. He will go to the government school exam on the [-]th day of the first lunar month next year. If he passes the exam, he can go to the government school to study.Brother Jian was because it was too cold outside, he was young, Jiang Shi was afraid that he would go out and freeze, so he didn't allow him to go with him.

Li Mei'er promised to bring them back delicious food, and since there were still cousins ​​playing together at home, they stopped making trouble.

Brother Zhang said first, "Let's go out for breakfast tomorrow morning, and go to the VIP building. Oh, it's famous there. It is said that the ancestors of the VIP building were the imperial chefs of the previous dynasty. Their family knows the lost craftsmanship of the previous dynasty. All the dignitaries in the village like to eat in the VIP building, I have eaten there with my father a few times, and the taste is really good."

Li Meier laughed straight when she heard it, "It's really so delicious?"

Brother Zhang said, "That's not true. Their family's Bazhen steamed buns are the most famous. They will be lined up to buy them tomorrow. If you go late, they will be gone. There are also wontons, mutton soup, white rice porridge, and side dishes with sauce. good."

"I told you so, I'm going to taste it." Li Meier has always been very interested in food, and she also wants to try the craftsmanship of the best restaurant in the capital, and learn from it. Her culinary skills have gone to the next level.

On the second day, Li Meier deliberately changed into a teenager's attire, Jiang asked Shuxiang to follow her, Li Meier said, "Let Shuxiang stay at home, sister Chuan'er is just pregnant, let him spend more time with sister Chuan'er."

When Chuaner arrived in the capital, she was diagnosed as pregnant. Because the journey was tiring, the fetal image was not very stable. These days, she was lying in bed to recuperate. Because her first child was a daughter, she still had high hopes for this child. The big one is looking forward to giving Shuxiang a big fat boy.

"That's fine, I'll let Ah Lu go with you." Jiang Shi thought for a while and then said, Ah Lu is Jiang Shanqing's servant and book boy.

Mrs. Jiang took out the money again and gave it to her daughter, saying, "It's rare to come to the capital. I don't care to go out in such a cold day. You are in good spirits and are not afraid of the cold. It's okay to go out for a stroll, but it's just early in the afternoon. Come back, don't make me worry about it."

Li Meier took the money and said, "Mother, don't worry, if the Bazhen steamed stuffed bun in the VIP building is really delicious, I'll bring some back, and our family can try it."

Mrs. Li was listening, and immediately told her, "Come back earlier. If the buns are expensive, you can bring a few less, and each person can taste it."

Li Meier held back her laughter, and replied, "I know."
