I eat melons and watch dramas in the chronicles

Chapter 16
The neigh- bors' whispers, the tinkling of pots and pans, the smoke curling from the roof, and the mist drifting on the top of the mountain in the distance, Liu Yuan shook his head and laughed secretly. If his man was still there, he should have already Get up and get busy in the yard!
Walking to the pressurized well, Liu Yuan picked up her toothbrush and prepared to brush her teeth and wash her teeth. The pressurized well in her house was different from other homes. When the house was built, Li Guodong specially built a cement pool beside the pressurized well for the convenience of his wife and daughter. Vegetable laundry washing water.

After washing, thinking that my daughter had suffered in the past two days, I went to the kitchen to roll out noodles, thinly sliced ​​white noodles, sprinkled with green onion and cucumber shreds, and a poached egg on top. It is very appetizing.

After Li Lin got up and washed up, looking at the two bowls of noodles and two small dishes of pickled vegetables on the dining table, she couldn't help taking a deep breath, and smiled at Liu Yuan: "Mom's cooking skills are getting better and better, Just looking at it makes me want to eat it!"

"There is nothing bad about something made from white noodles and eggs." Looking at her daughter's greedy look, Liu Yuan couldn't help laughing. It would be nice to be able to fill her stomach now. Such white noodles are not available in ordinary families. There is no shortage of eggs, but generally they are reluctant to eat them, and they keep them and send them to the supply and marketing agency to exchange for small things such as needles, threads, brains, and matches.

Like their family, they seldom save eggs and send them to the supply and marketing cooperative. Before that, the man in the family was capable. After the man disappeared, Li Lin went to work in the supply and marketing cooperative. The family has always been good. Liu Yuan came to the village when he was a teenager. , she didn't suffer too much grievance, of course it can't be like the days when she was a young lady from a wealthy family.

But because the parents-in-law are kind, the husband loves her, and the daughter is well-behaved. Apart from basic necessities, food, housing and transportation are no better than before, but life is just as difficult for everyone now. Liu Yuan's life is not generally comfortable, otherwise he will not be 40 years old, see It's about 30 years old when I get up.

The skin is fair, there is no vicissitudes on the face, the fine lines at the corners of the eyes are laugh lines, and the eyes are still as pure and clear as a little girl who has never experienced the world. I have to say that Liu Yuan can be in the current state because of her man The reason why the girl is protecting her.

When Li Guodong was still there, for his wife, he held it in his mouth for fear of melting, and held it in his hands for fear of falling. Later, Li Lin watched his mother grieve because of his father's death. For the sake of her mother, Li Lin insisted on setting up a family and supporting her mother again.

There is no woman in the village who doesn't envy Liu Yuan. There are not many women in the village who have good relations with Liu Yuan. Although there are reasons for her slow personality and dislike of excitement, most of them are because of envy and jealousy.

During the slack season, the women in the village walk around the streets chattering, comparing this and that, but no one can compare to Liu Yuan, so naturally they will not befriend her. After all these years in the village, Liu Yuan and them have lost face Love it!

The mother and daughter finished their breakfast quickly, and started tidying up quickly. Li Lin is engaged today. Their rules here are that they have to have lunch at the woman's house on the day of the engagement. Feng Yingjie has no relatives here, at most there will be two Three educated youth friends make up the number.

On Li Lin's side, there are too many people to invite, and the third aunt and the third uncle are the ones who decide, and they are not free now, so just invite a few elders from the clan, and invite all the clansmen together after they get married after the autumn harvest. Lin thought it was troublesome, Liu Yuan felt that Auntie San was the best at such things, so she listened to Auntie San, so there were not many people to invite today, and there would not be more than ten people in total.

The stove of Li Lin's family, because the mother and daughter are both diligent and clean, although their stove is not bright and clean, it is clean and tidy, and it does not look messy and dirty like other people's stoves.

As soon as the cleaning was almost done, the third aunt led people to the door, and the others still had to go to work, and they came to eat after work. The three aunts, the second grandmother, Feng Yingjie, and her husband came to the door. Feng Yingjie lived with two educated youths, a man and a woman, in the educated youth compound.

Li Lin was stunned for a moment when she saw the people coming, and then she quickly came back to her senses. Seeing her mother greet them warmly, Li Lin walked to the stove, opened the lid of the pot, and put the fermented eggs made by her mother into a bowl. , an egg in a bowl, half a bowl of rum.

The second grandma took the bowl, looked at the fermented eggs exuding the aroma of wine, couldn't help but chuckled and said, "This fermented egg is still delicious made by Guodong's family, and no one else can make this taste!"

"Second aunt, eat more if you like it. I made a lot of it in the pot." Liu Yuan took a sip of sweet wine with a bowl in his hand, and said lightly that Liu Yuan learned the craft of brewing sweet wine from Grandma Li Lin. When Yuan followed to the countryside, his health was particularly bad.

One was that she was frightened at a young age, and the other was that she was abandoned by her father and depressed. Grandma Li took great pains to take care of Liu Yuan’s health. Grandma Li is one of the few foods that she can choose to nourish her body.

Second Mistress smiled and said: "That's enough, you really learned the essence of your mother in this craft."

"Second aunt, my mother raised me as a daughter, and she taught me all the crafts. If the second aunt is greedy, she can tell me and I will make it for you." Liu Yuan is not being polite, these Their family has been getting along well with the second grandmother's family all the time, just like the third aunt's family.

It's just that the second grandmother is old and an elder. The relationship between Liu Yuan and the third auntie is very good, but Liu Yuan has never been stingy in doing things. The second grandma's family and the third aunt's family are treated as usual!

Second Mistress looked at Li Lin, who was sitting beside her with a bowl of sweet wine, and sighed to herself, "Didn't your mother raise you like a daughter? Compared with Guodong, your mother loves you more. When you married Guodong back then, you were as old as girl Lin now."

"Back then we persuaded your mother to let you and Guodong get married early, but your mother disagreed, saying that being a girl and enjoying a day of happiness would make it not so easy to get married and become a wife, but she didn't think about it, you married Guodong What's the difference between being a girl at home and being a girl at home!" The second grandma still hummed angrily when she thought of the past, her old concubine was very stubborn, and it hurt Liu Yuan, the daughter-in-law, to the bone!
Hearing this, Liu Yuan smiled and said, "That's right, Guodong and I have conflicts, both my mother and my father are against me!"

"Jing nonsense, when did Guodong have a conflict with you? He couldn't help you from childhood to adulthood. In a blink of an eye, so many years have passed, and our girl Lin has grown into a big girl!" Second Mistress laughed and scolded With a sound from Liu Yuan, he looked at Li Lin in a blink of an eye and couldn't help but sighed softly.

My old sister-in-law left a little early. It would be great if I could watch her beloved granddaughter get engaged and get married. This girl Lin will also grow up. She has the advantage of picking her parents. She is a well-known beauty at a young age. Embryo, it's just that no one thought that it would be cheaper for Feng Yingjie, a foreigner!
