A peasant girl through the ages

Chapter 235
For the family banquet, Li Haichao drew up a menu for Xinyu to cook. Seeing the dishes, Xinyu was a little worried: "Grandpa Hai, can this work?"

Li Haichao waved his hand: "Just do as I said, they will suffer less here, but this should not be forgotten. When they came, they remembered everything. Maybe they still like it. Those who came over in that year, don’t forget the hard days after eating rice for a few days.”

Xinyu smiled bitterly: "Grandpa Hai, do you often make this meal for them? I suspect that these people don't usually come here because they are afraid of eating this kind of meal."

Li Haichao smiled: "You child—"

Whether it is true or not, Li Haichao did not explain, he is somewhat displeased with the clothes and manners of children nowadays, what a waste, what can not be eaten, have forgotten the time when we could not even eat cornbread?

Xinyu pondered for a while, and went to the kitchen to prepare together with the servants. The meals must be arranged according to the old man's arrangement, but she tried her best to find a balance in taste. They all said that it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but it is difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. I also know that the food in my hometown is indeed much worse than here, but she also understands Li Haichao's intentions.

Under the management of Xinyu and the servants, the Northeast local dishes are made to taste like Chinese New Year.

When the adults in the family came over one after another, Xinyu finally saw these mysterious people. Li Wencan and his wife were dressed in plain clothes compared to here.

The couple are very nice. Seeing Xinyu and Sun Dakui, they were very enthusiastic. They finally came from their hometown. Do you think they can be unhappy, especially since they are old acquaintances.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Wen Can, how are you doing, do you miss me?"

Li Wencan held Sun Dakui in his arms and beat him hard twice: "You are really good, just leave us here and leave us alone, tell me honestly, what's going on at home, and don't let us contact you, is there nothing wrong at home? "

Sun Dakui shook his head with a smile, and pulled Xinyu back: "The family is doing well, come on, let me introduce you officially, this is Lin Xinyu, Uncle Hai told you that you have all met our Xinyu.

Xinyu, this is your uncle Li Wencan, this is your aunt Li Wenhua, your aunt is the adopted daughter of your grandpa Hai, but after being spotted by a wolf like your uncle, she became your aunt, originally you Should be called aunt. "

Li Wenhua punched Sun Dakui with a fist: "You guy, how many years have passed, and your virtues haven't changed, so why are you talking nonsense in front of children.

Xinyu, right? I heard your Grandpa Hai mentioned you on the phone. We wanted to come back to see you before. Your Grandpa Hai said that you have important things to do, let us wait, hehe, finally see you this time Now that you are a real person, you say that your child is so tall, but you are envious of your dead aunt. "

Li Wenhua's first impression of Xinyu was that he was a hearty person, a bit like her second aunt Wang Chunxing next door.

"Auntie, Uncle, hello—"

Li Wencan asked: "Girl, why don't you call uncle or aunt? Why did you change this position for me? I am the head of the household."

Xinyu explained with a smile: "Uncle, no matter how good you are outside, you have to obey my aunt's orders when you get home, so at home, aunt is the number one."

This sentence made Li Wenhua elated: "Look, we still have winks. How is this girl so long? Why is she so beautiful? I just want to have a girl like you. What a pity, your uncle and aunt The appearance is not good, the children in the family are not as good as one—"

Li Wencan gave his daughter-in-law a blank look: "Nonsense, our children can still grow up to be handy, why are they ugly, there is no such thing as an ugly girl in this world."

Xinyu stretched out her thumb: "Uncle, it's your opinion. There really is no ugly girl. As long as you put in the effort and time, ugly girls can become beautiful."

Li Weican smiled: "I love to hear that. Did you hear that? Don't talk about my daughter's face all day long. Just use your brain well. We don't rely on our faces for food."

Li Wenhua shook his head helplessly: "Xinyu, look, your uncle just protects the calf, and he doesn't like to listen to his daughter."

Sun Dakui spoke from the side: "It's right if you don't like to hear it. My daughter comes to our house. It makes us feel bad. Who cares if we don't love it? I love my daughter. Brother Wen Can, the two of us are on the same team." of."

Li Wenhua waved his hand: "I don't want to talk about this with you, you two can drink a pot of wine.

Dad, what do you want to eat today, I will always make it for you. "

Li Haichao said with a smile: "No, I let Xinyu prepare it, you just wait to eat. Tell you, don't expect too much, I only have simple food here."

Li Wenhua said with a smile: "That's right, how to eat, our ancestors have been eating it for many years, don't they live well? Look at those rich people who eat bird's nest, shark's fin and abalone every day. The more the body eats, the weaker they will be, and they will be tired and sweaty when they walk, or our eating method is healthy, this person should eat whole grains, which is good for the body."

Xinyu gave Li Wenhua a thumbs up again: "Auntie, your point of view is absolutely right. You should eat like this. If you want to live longer, you have to eat it with whole grains. The more primitive the taste, the better for your health."

Li Wenhua sat down with Xinyu: "Is life hard in my hometown?"

Xinyu shook her head: "It's not that hard, but this year's life should not be easy, and you've heard about the situation—"

Li Wenhua sighed: "Your uncle and I both know about it, don't worry about it, let's figure out a solution together."

The children of the family came over one after another, and brought gifts to Xinyu, and Xinyu was called out by his brother, sister and sister-in-law.

"Hey, where's your man? Why didn't he come?"

Seeing the eldest daughter coming alone, Lin Wenhua's expression darkened immediately, and Xinyu realized that something was wrong, Li Xiaoping's expression was not right.

"Miss Xiaoping, come here."

With so many people here, Xinyu didn't want to make a big fuss, so she dragged Li Wenhua and Li Xiaoping to the second floor.

Li Wenhua hadn't figured out what Xinyu was going to do, but when he got upstairs, Xinyu asked directly: "Miss Xiaoping, tell me, who did it to you?"

Li Wenhua took a closer look. Although the daughter had makeup on her face, the redness and swelling on her face could be seen if she observed carefully.

Li Wenhua blamed himself for being careless while being distressed, why didn't he see the strangeness on the child's face?
"Xiaoping, tell mom, did your man do it?"

When her own mother asked, Li Xiaoping threw herself into Li Wenhua's arms and began to cry: "Mom, I can't go on with this day, they are too bullying, I thought that children from poor families would be able to take charge of the family early, who would have thought of them My family is different from ours. It’s okay for them to be poor. They don’t think about earning more money every day, but think about how to find what they want from me every day.

I've had enough, really, I can't live a day, they took all my things, and this time it's even worse, the whole family moved to our house, that's what you bought for me The house, that's my dowry, I don't want to live with those bastards, I don't agree, my mother and sisters are standing by, and my man will beat me—"
