good old days

Chapter 243 Another Year

Most of the people in this big house were surnamed Jiang, and it seemed lively when you talked to each other, but most of them were at odds with each other, ten people had twenty hearts.

As a person who is about to get married, Jiang Xinyu is the first to be interrogated by the widow Wang who threatened to leave half a pig for her in the house.

Hearing that even the "tea money" was given twenty, Ma Meili was so envious and jealous!When Pandi of her family got married, the son-in-law's family gave a total of ten yuan.

Jiang Baoqin is also quite sour. Jiang Xinyu's future mother-in-law wants to leave half a pig for Jiang Xinyu, and her mother-in-law, whom she has never met, has prepared nothing for her. She is a stepmother, but she doesn't want any face. She doesn't care about her stepson. ask.

"Sister-in-law, we're going to have a drink right away. How much dowry is Chen Yi's family planning to give? Have you discussed it?"

After saying that, the old man Jiang looked over with piercing eyes, "Xinyu is a good-looking girl, 200 yuan is not too much, and [-] yuan is too low!"

Jiang Xinyu has both the feeling that she is only worth 200 yuan, and the sigh that "the old man really knows how to talk like a lion"!

Is she worth two hundred?Ah bah, this is not a question of whether it is worth it or not.

This year, 200 yuan is already a huge sum of money!Now the wages are usually two, thirty, or forty yuan, and 200 yuan is the income of a worker for nearly ten months, and he has to eat or drink!
Does the old man think highly of her?

Chen Xiuyun glanced at the old man Jiang, and said speechlessly: "You are ashamed to open your mouth. Her family can give you as much as you want. Chen Yi's child is good. I will recognize the son-in-law as much as you give. It's not like selling a girl. How can I ask for it."

Whether the money is more or less, she is ready for her daughter to take it back.

The old man Jiang smacked his lips, thinking that Chen Xiuyun was stupid for not taking such a good opportunity to ask for money.But he can't be Chen Xiuyun's master now, it's a pity, but he didn't continue.

After talking about Jiang Xinyu, the old man Jiang looked at Jiang Yuzhu again, "Yuzhu, I have been in the county for so long, and I have no match? If you can't find it, I will introduce it to you, and I will definitely give it to you..."

"cough cough"

Chen Xiuyun pulled her face and coughed several times, and looked at old man Jiang in warning.

Old man Jiang reluctantly shut up.

The eldest daughter-in-law bought him a pack of cigarettes this year, so he can no longer offend others.

Jiang Xinyu looked at the aggrieved look of the old man, and found it very amusing.Mrs. Li is not here, her mother is now a person who speaks a lot in Jiang's house, and the old man is talking based on her face.

Talk about this, talk about that, more than half an hour passed, Chen Xiuyun got up: "I have to go back to cook, we won't eat here tonight, and bring the children to visit the New Year after dinner."

Ma Meili enthusiastically sent the people to the door, and watched them walk away before returning.

Jiang Xinyu looked back, and really felt that Second Aunt was a good and bad person, not bad, but sometimes too fussy, and she was quite cute when she didn't care.

After the fish scales were cut, Chen Xiuyun scratched the fish with a knife, rubbed salt on it and marinated it first.

Xiao Chuan, who came back from playing wildly with the cannon, washed his hands and then washed the cabbage.

"Mom, can't we make dumplings with white radish today? I've had enough cabbage."

Jiang Yuzhu also nodded quickly. She had eaten enough cabbage.

Xiao Chuan hurriedly said, "I, I, I, I haven't eaten enough cabbage dumplings."

The cabbage and meat dumplings are so delicious, he can never get enough of them, his mouth is watering just thinking about them.

Jiang Yuzhu deliberately said: "Then you can just eat pure cabbage dumplings today, we will eat radish meat."

Xiao Chuan's smile froze on his face, with that expression on the verge of crying, Jiang Xinyu laughed out loud.

At the strong request of the two daughters, Chen Xiuyun chopped white radish meat for dumpling fillings.

Every household has saved for the whole year, so there is no need to save for the few days during the Chinese New Year.

At noon, I extravagantly cooked a big black fish with sugar braised in soy sauce, and fried a plate of eggs. After all, I made a dish of fried cabbage with meat, seaweed, vermicelli and carrot salad, served with white flour steamed buns and deep-fried dough sticks with red dates sandwiched between them. Candy cake, a few people ate a belly ball at noon.Today Xiao Hei also mixed corn grits with broth.

After the meal, Chen Xiuyun made some good noodles and asked the two daughters to make dumplings, while she prepared the rest herself.

Jiang Yuzhu chopped the dough and rolled it into skins, and Jiang Xinyu wrapped the dumplings with slow hands.

She can make pastries, but her hands are still a little raw when making dumplings. In order to make the dumplings look good, she pinches them very slowly, and each dumpling has a thick area with several overlapping layers.

When she was earnestly making the dumplings, Chen Yi came with a bowl of sugar-oiled fruits. The fruits were still steaming, and it looked like they had just come out of the pan.

"What is this?"

The outside is burnt brown and decorated with sesame seeds, the size is one bite, and it smells sweet.

"My mother just fried it. It's called Tangyouguo. Let me bring it to you for a taste."

Jiang Xinyu opened her mouth and said ah, "I'm out of hands, feed me."

Jiang Yuzhu, who was on the side, admired the little girl's demeanor, "Why don't you let him chew it and then feed you?"

Jiang Xinyu quit, and laughed and cursed: "You are so disgusting."

Jiang Yuzhu also smiled: "No matter how disgusting you are, get the hell out of here."

Chen Yi shook his shoulders and smiled cryptically, and decided to stuff Jiang Xinyu's mouth with food.

When Jiang Xinyu was about to reply, a delicious sugary fruit was stuffed into her mouth.

She chewed it, and the warm sweetness exploded in her mouth. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sweet but not greasy. Compared with the sweet sugar cake, the sweetness was much milder and the taste was superb.

"It's delicious, you all have to try it."

Xiao Chuan was drooling long ago.

Chen Yi looked down at the dumplings she made, and smiled instantly.Both of them make the same dumplings, a small part of the folded part is obviously thicker than the other places, the thickness of his mother's dumplings is even, and it looks good, but he can't look down on his clumsy craftsmanship.

Chen Xiuyun greeted him to eat melon seeds and peanut candies, he deliberately grabbed a handful, and talked for a while before leaving.

Chen Xiuyun said: "Two days before the eighth day of the eighth day, you pack up all your things, and take all the things that should be brought to Chen Yi's house in advance, so as to save you from being in a hurry when the time comes."

Jiang Xinyu swallowed the food in her mouth, and said dissatisfiedly: "How can I hear the feeling that you want to kick me out now."

Chen Xiuyun deliberately said: "The water poured out by the married daughter, you have to pour this basin of water in the morning and in the evening. Hurry up and pour it out, so as not to annoy me."

Jiang Xinyu couldn't believe it, "Aren't I the little padded jacket you love the most? That's how you treat your little padded jacket!"

Jiang Yuzhu got goosebumps all over her body, and said a little irritablely: "You talk to me normally, no one in our family is Chen Yi, who can bear you like this?"

Jiang Xinyu groaned and expressed dissatisfaction, what is this like?What happened to Chen Yi, obviously he enjoyed being with her, okay?

Also, her second sister is really not in a good mood recently, without Zhou Qi's letter, she has become a irascible sister!
