The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

Chapter 152
Twelfth lunar month, one of the busiest months of the year.

Uncle Zhongqin's mansion is going to give New Year's gifts to people, and this year there are several gentlemen and classmates of Yuan Wenjie and Yuan Wenwu.

In addition to Cai Jijiu, there are six great Confucian scholars. Except for the prince Taifu who taught the prince alone the study of emperors, the rest of the great Confucian scholars are all full of economics.

The gentlemen Xia Hongdi chose for his sons were all erudite, noble, dignified, and well-known.

The master of martial arts is even more proficient in riding and shooting, and his inner martial arts are superb, which is the most heart-warming thing for a young man like Qin Ke.

In this dynasty, the husband's status can be equal to that of parents, Cuihua and Heiwa dare not be sloppy.

This year's Lamei is also one of the annual gifts to be given to gentlemen. The sincere couple will give some local specialties.

The colorful and egg noodles made by the noodle shop, some cured meat (bacon, sausage, cured pork ribs), and dried chili were also sent to the family. A bamboo basket, a pair of live geese, and two slaughtered and skinned goats, At the same time, some different eating methods of goose and goat are also attached.

From Cai Jijiu to the six Confucian scholars, Cuihua's annual ceremony is the same.

This kind of New Year's gift can surprise the gentlemen's family members. Which one of them doesn't collect all kinds of famous paintings and ancient books, or various medicinal materials and supplements, and the worst is delicacies!Such a simple New Year ceremony is really ingenious.

However, the women in the family are rare, especially these recipes, which are much more varied than what they have eaten before. If they can be cooked well, they may become the main dish of the family banquet.

Mrs. Zhongqin also said that this recipe is unique, which is much more valuable than those ancient calligraphy and paintings!What a family of honest people!
If there were some wives who were in charge of the family before, and they cared about the name of Cuihua's jealous wife, now they all praise them after seeing these annual gifts, and their nature is sincere.

Isn't it honesty? They are from the countryside. If you want to give people concubines, how many rural men can take concubines?
In addition to gifts, the Zhongqinbo Mansion also received many annual gifts.

Among them, the Fan family from Shudi came here early, and heard the gift-giving woman say that Mr. Fan wanted to match Hu Erniu, but Cuihua was speechless.

"Mrs. Yuan, the lady my Patriarch wants to tell Mr. Hu is really a rare person!"

"What kind of rare method?"

"The fifth lady of our Fan family is the eldest daughter of Sanye Fan who lives next door to our Fan family. She is the fifth in the family and is 25 years old this year.

The ex-husband’s family is from the Zeng family in the Shu region, which can be regarded as the same family as our Fan family, and is stronger than the Fan family.

The poor fifth lady, got engaged at the age of 13 and married at the age of 15, but just one month before the marriage, the seventh master of the Zeng family died on the way back to Shu.

The hateful Zeng family wanted our fifth wife to marry them and keep their sons as widows!

The Zeng family didn't agree with our Fan family's pleading back then, Wu Niangzi couldn't bear the entire Fan family's enmity with the Zeng family, so she nodded and agreed to go to the Zeng family to become a widow.

However, this Zeng's house is not easy to get out of!That Qiye's mother, that old lady is so vicious, not only did she not let our fifth lady go back to her mother's house, but every year our family visits fifth lady during festivals, and the Zeng family will guard the whole time.

How could we know that this vicious old woman made our fifth lady eat vegetarian food every day, copied scriptures for her son, and tortured this flowery woman until she was as if withered.

My Patriarch heard about this incident last year, so he took Wu Niangzi back to Fan's house forcefully, and gave her a year of nursing care. However, this old woman is still in Chengdu Mansion, ruining our Fifth Mistress's reputation everywhere. Determined to marry Wu Niangzi far away.

Mrs. Uncle, it’s really not my compliment. The fifth wife of our family is not only outstanding in appearance, but also has a good heart. She also told our patriarch that if she remarries, she doesn’t want to be a wealthy family, nor is she afraid of being a stepmother. , I only want to find a mother-in-law who is easy to get along with and a family with a simple family.

The head of the family also put a lot of thought into it, and finally heard about Hu Erye's first daughter-in-law, so he had the cheek to say kiss. "

Cuihua listened and thought, this Fan family voted for the king of Shu early on, maybe there is no reason why they were angry with the Zeng family back then, and wanted to find a backer for themselves.

But the Fan family really got tough, it should be Mr. Fan who became the head of the family and bought shares in the ceramic tile workshop in Shudi, which can be regarded as holding the emperor's thigh firmly.

Although taking home the widowed granddaughter at this moment has been wasted for nearly ten years, compared to other high-ranking families who pay attention to reputation and ignore their daughter's life, Mr. Fan's somewhat impulsive approach moved Cuihua.

However, this person who has been trained for nearly ten years doesn't know what his mind is like now.

"Mommy, from what you said, what happened to Fifth Lady is really embarrassing. I don't know what Fifth Lady is doing now after returning home?"

"If you don't talk about my wife, how can we praise our fifth lady too much? After our fifth lady returned home, the family invited a doctor to recuperate her body. No matter how bitter the medicine, no matter how tasteless the meal, the fifth lady smiled Eat and drink!
I also teach the younger sisters in the family to read and write every day, and our head of the family praises the small regular script with hairpin flowers.

Not only that, but she can also cook good vegetarian food. Few people are as filial as her. Our patriarch is such a good eater, but the doctor doesn’t let him eat more meat. Meat-flavored vegetarian dishes are praised by everyone in the house. "

In this way, I am still a positive person in life, so what bad thoughts can I have for someone who likes to cook?
Cuihua nodded, "Nurse, why don't you stay overnight at our house, I have to talk to my mother about this matter first."

"Hey, in front of the old lady, please say a few good words for our fifth lady, the old lady kowtows to you!"

Cuihua hurriedly winked at Mother Chun, she was unwilling to be bowed down by such an elderly person.

In the Hu family, Cuihua planned to give the New Year's gift in person, and packed two large carts full of New Year's goods for her mother.

Now Hu Yiniu and Hu Erniu are resting at home, and Hu Erniu rides as a horse for their two daughters every day, and the yard is full of laughter.

When the most promising aunt in the family returned to her natal home, Zhao Sanniang welcomed her warmly and let Cuihua into the main room.

After exchanging pleasantries, Cuihua pulled Mrs. Zhang and Hu Erniu aside: "Mother, second brother, I have something to say!"

When Cuihua talked about Mr. Fan's matchmaking, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but smile from ear to ear, and asked incredulously:

"Girl, that's the Fan family in Chengdu, can you marry into our Hu family?"

Hu Erniu was also worried: "Sister, didn't you say that Qi Dafei is not even me!"

"Hey, the second brother is still having sex with my sister? What happened to our Hu family, you really think of yourself as a villager in Dali Village?

How many villagers can earn hundreds of taels of silver a year?How many villagers have Mrs. Uncle's own sister? "

Hu Erniu was very awkward: "Didn't that person come to your house?"

"Then what's the matter? My brother and parents can still get me a little bit of glory? Then, isn't my daughter raising for nothing?"

"How can I count the glory?" Mrs. Zhang scolded, she would be envied to death by the old villagers.

Hu Erniu grabbed the corner of his clothes, blushing: "I, I don't know how to get along with other ladies! Do you have anything to say to me?"

"You talk to my old lady well, why don't you have anything to say? You are dumb!" Mrs. Zhang couldn't see Hu Erniu's cowardice, and she was so angry that she wanted to do it.

Cuihua didn't expect her second brother to feel inferior. She wanted to make a joke, but she rolled her eyes:
"How about this, second brother, there are still twenty days before Chinese New Year, do you want to go to Chengdu Mansion? Let's see each other and see this fifth lady! Let others see you, you are both married twice, we Don't engage in blind marriages and dumb marriages!"

"I think what your sister said is right, second child, just like this, my mother will replace all the new clothes I made for you this year, and you will go back to Chengdu Mansion together with the mother-in-law who gave the New Year's gift to the Fan family. We are in love, we will go back to Sichuan next year and marry you a daughter-in-law!"

As long as there is a daughter-in-law to marry, Zhang feels that it is nothing to go back to her hometown. Now they don't have to go back on their legs, and they have a carriage to sit in. She has a very strong body!

Hu Erniu can have any opinions, besides, no one listens to his opinions, his mother has already rushed to pack his luggage for him.

"Sister, you can really do it!" The mother and daughter didn't give him a chance to refute.

"If you don't marry a daughter-in-law for a day, I will worry about your sister for a day, and marry my sister-in-law to me, and I will feel at ease!"

"." A bachelor has no human rights!

Mrs. Zhang packed two large bags of luggage for Hu Erniu in a quarter of an hour, then drove Hu Erniu out of the house, and sent him and Cuihua back to Bo's residence.

Heiwa was also overjoyed when he heard that his second uncle was going to go on a blind date in Chengdu Mansion. He even joked:

"The daughter of the Fan family is famous for being virtuous and virtuous, second brother, you have earned it!"

It made Hu Erniu feel even less confident: "Then, can he see me?"

"Second brother, what misunderstanding do you have about your own qualifications? You, handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, is the kind of body your mother-in-law likes the most. You earn nearly a thousand taels a year, and you still work for His Majesty, which is more than that. how many people?

The most important thing is that the father-in-law of the Hu family is strong and strong, and the mother-in-law loves the daughter-in-law. This is a good husband's family that can't be found with a lantern! "

"Our family, really, really is so nice!"

"Not so good, but so good!"

Hu Erniu grinned, and then he became happy. Hey, in the capital, he told his brother-in-law and sister that he was afraid that someone would accidentally make a fairy dance. He could hide ten feet away when he saw a woman.

This Fan family, speaking of it, can be regarded as a friendly family, and it would not have cheated him. Thinking about it this way, he has become more at ease, and even asked Heiwa how to please his future father-in-law Yunyun.

Heiwa's brother-in-law is still very good. Not only did he offer advice, but he also gave his second uncle a bunch of outfits. If the weather is cold enough, the leather cloak and leather boots he gave will come in handy.

On the second day, Hu Erniu took on a completely new look, and brought a carload of New Year gifts prepared by Cuihua to the Fan family, and returned to Chengdu Mansion for a blind date with the mother-in-law who came with Fan Mansion.

With such a big battle, the people in the house know everything they should know. Last night, Hu Erniu and Xiao Chuan lived in the front yard together, and the father and son talked at night.

After Xiao Chuan heard the news that his father might marry a wife, although he smiled reluctantly, he claimed that he had grown up and hoped that his father would also have a good belonging.

The next day, after seeing off the group, several children got together and whispered.

"Mother, can the second uncle marry the second aunt?" Xiaoer told God that he was not blind, and Xiao Liu was worried about his second uncle.

"What do you think?"

"Yes!" The answer was so reluctant.

"Xiao Liu doesn't like your second uncle? What's wrong with your second uncle?"

"Second uncle is so old, aren't the groomsmen all young brothers?"

"Ahem. Son, the groom has an elder brother, an uncle, an uncle and a grandpa!"

Xiao Liu's eyes widened, what mother said was so complicated, the kid couldn't figure it out!
Xiao Wu looked at Xiao Liu with disdain: "The bride married by brother is called bride, and the one married by uncle is called wife! The one married by uncle is called wife!"

Cuihua: Xiao Wu, you are truly a genius!Your old lady, I am speechless!
