The growth of the eldest daughter-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 13 Family Meeting 2
Looking at the expressions of everyone in the Li family, Zhao Yunlan probably hadn't finished digesting the matter of borrowing money, and got up and said, "Mother, I'll go prepare dinner first, sir, look at Xiaobao."

Li Mingmei watched Zhao Yunlan go to the kitchen, and went to help in the kitchen after a while.Zhao Yunlan doesn't care what the Li family thinks now, she only thinks about eating chicken tonight.

Zhao Yunlan peeled out the uneaten winter bamboo shoots and washed the fungus. Seeing Li Mingmei come in, she asked her to wash some radishes. Then she went to the vegetable garden to chop a cabbage and pluck some garlic sprouts.

When Li Mingren comes back tonight, the whole family can eat some fine grains.Zhao Yunlan planned to steam a small pot of rice, and baked some pancakes with radish and flour.

The rice is steamed in the pot, and the dishes here are almost ready. Zhao Yunlan split the chicken in half to make the soup. Because the stove is not enough, Zhao Yunlan asked Li Mingmei to build a stove to make the soup. Wait until the soup is done. Yes, the fire in the stove can also give Wang hot medicine.

Zhao Yunlan put the shallots in and stewed them together with the chicken. There was still half a chicken here, and Zhao Yunlan didn't plan to keep it. It was butchered into small pieces and roasted together with the bamboo shoots and fungus.When the chicken soup was almost done, Zhao Yunlan asked Li Mingmei to throw in the radish pieces and stew them together.

Zhao Yunlan continued to cook, and left a small half of the pork belly and a small piece of lean meat before, and prepared to use them to fry garlic sprouts. Zhao Yunlan didn't put any oil, so she just put the fatty pork belly in the pot and boiled it for a while When the oil is out, put the lean meat in, and finally put the garlic sprouts.Zhao Yunlan once again lamented that without chili, the dishes lack soul.

Finally, Zhao Yunlan fried another cabbage, the oil was saved at home, Zhao Yunlan was very handy in cooking.Finally, after controlling the water with shredded radish cut by Li Mingmei, wrapped in flour, baked a pot of radish cake with mixed grains.Zhao Yunlan wanted the pancakes to taste better, but the oil wasn't enough.

The Li family has been slowly accepting the fact that the family borrowed money amidst the smell coming from the kitchen.The little ones couldn't wait to eat, and their stomachs rumbled several times.

Zhao Yunlan came out of the kitchen and called Li Mingren to help prepare the meal.

Zhao Yunlan just habitually believes that housework is shared by the whole family, and you can't stop doing housework just because you have a better career or are more liked by the elders.What's more, this family doesn't have the ability to provide for the master.

Li Mingren caught the bowl and chopsticks handed to him before he heard Zhao Yunlan's order.He went to set the bowl in a daze.Mrs. Wang watched from the side without making a sound. Old man Li wanted to speak, but was held back by Mrs. Wang.

Li Mingren didn't do much work at home before. The brothers and sisters of the Li family felt that something was beginning to change quietly, but they couldn't explain why. Li Mingmei only thought that his sister-in-law was so amazing.

When the dishes were served, the whole family smelled the aroma. Although there was rice in this meal, it was only enough for each person to share a bowl. Li's fine grains were basically enough for the whole family to eat for one meal a year, and the rest were eaten alone. Give it to the patient or leave it to Li Mingren and Xiaobao.

The most gratifying thing about this meal is not that you can eat fine grains, but that basically every dish is meat, even the fried cabbage is fried with lard.

This is the first time for Li Mingren to eat the food cooked by the current Zhao Yunlan, and he was amazed. He suddenly thought that he hadn't cared about his wife for a long time.Didn't know there was such a good craftsmanship.

Wang looked at Zhao Yunlan and said, "Mother Lan, do you have anything else to say, let's talk now."

Zhao Yunlan didn't want to talk about those serious things during the meal, so she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "Good luck, chicken dinner tonight, let's start."

Old man Li said: "Okay, good luck, good luck."

Everyone in the Li family didn't know why they suddenly said blessings, but everyone liked to hear good words, and it was indeed chicken tonight, and the family happily ate.Zhao Yunlan filled a bowl of chicken soup for Mr. Li's old man Xiaobao. Li Mingren didn't wait for Zhao Yunlan's chicken soup, and his loss flashed across his heart. The dishes tonight made Li's family unable to stop talking. Even Xiaobao Those who love to make trouble usually don't have time to make trouble, so they keep eating the chicken that Zhao Yunlan has torn.

Zhao Yunlan also drank the chicken soup contentedly, finally being able to eat decently here.The Li family was satisfied with this meal. The second child and the third child rushed to wash the dishes and tidy up. The fourth child Li Mingzhi said, "Sister-in-law, let's go to the mountain another day to see if we can meet pheasants."

Mrs. Wang was next to him, "You are so easy to meet when you are a dead pheasant. If you meet a live pheasant, you can't beat it. Let me tell you, don't take that porcelain job without that diamond."

The fourth child didn't dare to speak anymore, Zhao Yunlan said: "Mom, let's all listen to my next plan for this family."

The second and third child came over after cleaning up the kitchen, and Li Mingren also sat next to Xiaobao with his arms in his arms. During the meal, the father and son got a lot closer, and Li Mingren also helped to feed Xiaobao chicken soup during the meal.

Li Mingmei was also sitting next to Mrs. Wang. Zhao Yunlan saw that everyone was together and began to say: "First of all, the land is the foundation of a family, so we can no longer sell the land. Then the difficulty we face now is money. Xianggong is studying, mother." Drinking medicine, the family needs to live. So I decided to borrow a sum of money. At first, my mother said to give my husband [-] yuan, but the family currently has [-] yuan, so we will borrow [-] yuan. The thousand or two hundred yuan is still the same, what about borrowing money? Let’s go to the village head. The eldest grandson of the village head’s family is studying and understands the difficulty of being a scholar. Moreover, the village head is in charge of everything in the village. He is also a fair person, so he The best people to borrow money from.”

Wang Shi didn't speak, it should be tacit agreement from his expression.

"Second brother is also old enough to start a family. We will do this in the second half of the year. Second brother, sister-in-law here assures you and parents that there will be enough money to talk about marriage in the second half of the year. These two things are this year. The bulk of the money is spent, and the next thing is that the mother needs to drink medicine. This is a necessary expense, so this money should be reserved. At least three months, and then in case there is a headache at home, this is a hundred yuan, which is about About 250 texts.

Let's talk about how to pay off the borrowed money and save the bride price for the second brother.Xianggong will take the exam soon, so Xianggong is preparing for the exam. There is still some time before the spring harvest. During this period of time, there is little work at home. The second and third brothers will go to the town to do odd jobs, and the fourth brother will help with field work at home. I have almost recuperated now, and I can do the work in the field. In the future, my little sister will help out more at home with housework, and I will do less work in the field. Everyone in our family is also watching. I can live a relaxed life, so my words may be disrespectful to my parents. My mother’s task is to take good care of my body, so that everyone can have less worry when working, and my husband can concentrate on his studies.At this age, Dad can't let go of work. For the sake of the whole family, I hope that Dad can do his own handicrafts when he is not busy. We will take some bamboo baskets to the town to see the situation next time when we go to the market. "

Li Mingren was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhao Yunlan say that no one in this family could live an easy life. these arrangements.

Zhao Yunlan also realized that she talked too much, the Li family was almost used to this kind of Zhao Yunlan, but it was the first time Li Mingren met, Zhao Yunlan decided it was time to turn over the old score and sell it badly.

"I fell down last month and fell into a coma for a while. At that time, I thought I was dead. The past three years from my birth to my marriage kept flashing in my head. Looking at the muddle I had before, especially when I came to our Old Li's house, didn't help my mother, didn't take good care of my husband and Xiaobao, and woke me up immediately. I tried my best to wake myself up, my brain was about to explode, and I didn't know which god saved me in the end I woke up after I was killed. Later, during the period of cultivation, I kept thinking. I wanted to follow in the footsteps of my husband and start to change. I followed my younger brothers and sisters to learn how to read, and gradually learned more. I can understand some annotations in Xianggong’s book, and I feel that my brain is getting clearer, and I can understand the truth of many things.”

The fourth son, Li Mingzhi, hurriedly said, "Yes, brother, sister-in-law is very serious about reading and writing, and she is more diligent than when I was studying."

Li Mingren was ashamed after hearing Zhao Yunlan's words. As a husband, his wife was sick and injured and couldn't take care of her. All his doubts about Zhao Yunlan disappeared immediately.Zhao Yunlan looked at Li Mingren lowered her head, thinking that this cheap husband could still be saved, and she could feel ashamed.

"So, now our family is working together to create a better life for the Li family. As the daughter-in-law of Li's parents, and the sister-in-law of all the brothers and sisters, I will take the first step and set an example."

The eye sockets of the old couple in the Li family were slightly red, and the younger ones were also trembling with encouragement. Li Mingren once again felt that his heart had been pierced, as if something was about to break open.Li Mingmei held Wang's hand tightly.Only Xiaobao was dancing in Zhao Yunlan's arms. Looking at Xiaobao, Zhao Yunlan suddenly thought, "Master, Xiaobao is not yet famous, so I will leave this task to you." Li Mingren nodded in agreement.

Zhao Yunlan greeted everyone to go back to the room to rest, carried Xiao Bao back to the room, Li Mingren followed silently, when Zhao Yunlan returned to the room and turned to close the door, she bumped into Li Mingren, Li Mingren staggered back, Li Mingren has been studying hard for many years and has never done any heavy work. The conditions of Li's family are not too good. When he is studying outside, he eats more economically. He looks like a frail scholar.

On the other hand, Zhao Yunlan's base is already strong, and after giving birth to Xiaobao, it has soared all the way. Although it has been reduced a lot during this period, it is not one or two points worse than Li Mingren.Zhao Yunlan realized that she wanted to share the bed with Li Mingren, and she felt awkward all of a sudden. Li Mingren stepped in after standing still. The two seemed to be back on their wedding night, embarrassed and cramped, but this time Zhao Yunlan was less shy and shy.
