After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Chapter 29 Different?

Su Xiaomu followed Chen back home with a dazed expression, and before she had time to sit down when she entered the room, Chen started to lose her temper at home.

"Aren't you happy to go back to your mother's house?"

Yin Shi followed Su Xiaomu into the kitchen to help, and even closed the kitchen door on purpose.

Su Xiaomu took out the eggs from the kitchen cabinet.

According to her instructions, Yin washed the surface of the eggs one by one.

"Tell your sister-in-law, is your second sister-in-law quarreling with her family?"

"That's not true. I ran into Aunt Zhao's family on the way. She spoke harshly, saying that my husband couldn't pass the Juren exam, and it would be a waste of family money to give him education."

Su Xiaomu actually wanted to ask about that girl from the Zhao family, but she was too embarrassed to gossip about Gu Jingcheng's confidante, so she could only insinuate and see what Yin had to say.

Sure enough, when Aunt Zhao was mentioned, Yin's eyes flashed with disgust.

Then he said with a clear face: "I'm clear now, your second sister-in-law and her are old rivals, and every time the two of them quarrel, she will lose her temper when she comes back. The family has long been used to it."

Yin Shi washed the eggs and put them into the pot to cook. She covered the pot, turned her back and looked at Su Xiaomu who had been silent all this time, and said, "Did your second sister-in-law tell you that the girl from the Zhao family almost died?" married into our family."

"It's... I said it."

Su Xiaomu had an embarrassing look on his face, but he kept saying in his heart: Gossip!I want to hear gossip!

Gu Jingcheng, he looks like a scholar all day long. Although he is really good-looking and has the capital of being cultured and noble, Su Xiaomu's eyes are itchy and he can't see it.

The story of a well-known scholar in the village and his confidante, how could Su Xiaomu feel like he was reading a storybook?Yin continued to talk.

"The reason why the Zhao family girl didn't marry into our family is because her mother thinks our family is poor and looks down on our family.

He also said that a scholar should not be ambiguous in marrying a daughter-in-law, why should he give a bride price of five taels of silver, do you think your mother will agree? "

Yin Shi probably thought of some not so good memory, her expression changed slightly, and she became more disgusted with that Aunt Zhao.

"Although there is a scholar in the family, the land tax can be exempted, but why does the third uncle not need to spend money to study in the city? They are obviously picking on our family."

"At that time, your second sister-in-law was not in good health, and she had an emergency in the middle of the night and had to take a bullock cart to see a doctor.

That Aunt Zhao took your second sister-in-law from going to the doctor because of the failed marriage, and almost made her not recover from that time. No, the two of them had a big feud. "

When Yin talked about other people's gossip, she seemed much more excited than usual: "But you don't have to worry, the mother came to find Aunt Zhao herself, and even scolded her daughter for a big fight. It’s breaking away from his family.”

"So this is ah."

Su Xiaomu's face was suddenly enlightened, but in her heart she felt that the gossip was not hot enough, and she was planning to make up her own brains. The eggs were cooked and she had to make marinade.

The leftover spices and tea leaves are mixed together, and salt is added to the sauce, all mixed in a bowl and stirred.

After the eggs came out of the pan, the cold water cooled them down. Su Xiaomu used the back of a knife to smash the surface of the eggshells, and then put them into a clay pot, poured a ladle of water, mixed in the spices and cooked.

After about half an hour, the fire was turned off, and it was simmered for another hour. Su Xiaomu took a few marinated tea eggs and cut them open. After a while, the whole kitchen was filled with the smell of eggs and marinade.

Tell her to salivate continuously from her mouth.

This is simply the smell carved into DNA.

No one in this world can refuse the delicacy of tea eggs.

"Sister-in-law try one first?"

Su Xiaomu fed a piece to Yin Shi enthusiastically, and after seeing her clapping her hands, she couldn't wait to eat a piece by herself.

Then he took it to find Mrs. Li.

"Mother, these are tea eggs, which taste much better than eating white water eggs."

Su Xiaomu handed the eggs to Li Shi with a smile on her face. Seeing that she had cut two eggs at once, she felt a little pity, but seeing the two daughter-in-laws staring at her expectantly, she couldn't say much.

In addition, the taste of this egg was really delicious, she couldn't help but took it and tasted it, and after she understood the taste, Li's face was full of disbelief.

"Is this made of tea?"

She held the egg back and forth and couldn't believe it. There were so many cracks on the egg white, were the tea leaves cracked?
"It is boiled with tea leaves, but there are other things in it. If your mother thinks it is delicious, my daughter-in-law will cook it for you every day."

Su Xiaomu graciously stuffed another piece of egg to Li Shi: "There are still many in the kitchen."

"Mother doesn't like to eat, you take it to Jingcheng and the others."

This time Li's face was always kind, and he spoke very gently to Su Xiaomu.

"You are good at crafting, you can do what you like, but we still say that everything should be followed by Jingcheng."

She still knows how many eggs there are in the house, and this old woman eats them all. What do Jingcheng and the others eat?
"I kept it for my husband and the others. My sister-in-law took half of it to my father. My husband is filial. In the morning, he told me that although he was busy studying, he knew that his mother and father were good to him, and his sister-in-law and brothers also took care of him." , he knows it all."

Su Xiaomu spoke well for Gu Jingcheng.

Sure enough, Mrs. Li was happier after hearing this, and asked her to bring eggs to Gu Jingcheng and the others, while she went into the house to talk to Mr. Gu.

Su Xiaomu went to look for Mrs. Chen with the remaining eggs.

As for the one just now, she actually liked Chen's temperament a little bit.

"Second sister-in-law also try it, it tastes much better than white water eggs."

Su Xiaomu looked at Chen Shi with a smile on his face, and took out the tea eggs to Chen Shi like offering a treasure.

"Second sister-in-law's family has so many chickens, don't look down on them."

"My parents are not willing to take out such a precious thing and eat it casually. Thanks to Xiaomu, my mother has been very generous these days and she is willing to give us eggs."

Mrs. Chen thought that Su Xiaomu was going to pass her over to deliver the eggs, but she didn't expect that she would come here to give her a copy.

The yin and yang words in my stomach were all stuffed up and I didn't say it, I took a piece and ate it, let alone, this egg is really delicious like this.

Taking advantage of Su Xiaomu, Chen's attitude became softer than before.

She took Su Xiaomu's arm and acted like a good sister: "You must help me remember what we said about the veil earlier."

"Don't worry about Pazi, sister-in-law. I will go to the city tomorrow to help you with the matter, and I will bring you back the money."

She upholds her usual standard of being kind to others. In this family, she can have a good relationship with as many people as possible.

The two gossiped about their daily life, and a few children also came forward to join in the fun.

Su Xiaomu distributed some eggs to them alone, and asked Gu Ruotong about the handkerchief embroidery by the way.

She was also curious, Gu Ruonan was not too young, why didn't she learn a craft from Chen Shi.

Don't supplement the family with embroidered handkerchiefs. Anyway, in this society, men who farm and women weave, those who can embroider are better than those who can't, so it's easier to marry, right?
She gently lowered her head to talk to the children, and from time to time wiped the egg foam from the corners of their mouths with a handkerchief.

When Gu Jingcheng came in with a hoe on his shoulder, what he saw was this room full of warmth.

He was slightly taken aback.
