Chapter 73

The old age is so scary that no one can stand it.After leaving the warehouse, there were more than a dozen people who looked like guards standing outside, confirming the identity of Mr. Ji.

Seeing his brother and sister-in-law come out of the Wujia warehouse safe and sound, Liu Lang put his heart in his stomach.

Just now the young master of the Wu family came with a young master, and the young master's attendants quickly surrounded the warehouse to prevent anyone from entering.He was terrified at the time, but fortunately, the brother and sister-in-law walked out unscathed.

Su Jin first separated the two bamboo hats and asked the two brothers to wear them. She also held up an oil-paper umbrella and sat on the bullock cart.

"Sister-in-law, where are we going now?"

"Go buy meat!"

"Okay! Sister-in-law, sit down with my brother!"

Liulang drove the ox cart to the meat stand. "Not to mention, this bamboo hat is just fine, it's much cooler this time."

However, Su Jin felt that Gu Chen's cold hand was holding her hand tightly, and refused to let go.

"Da Lang?"

"Daughter-in-law!" Gu Chen's heart was already turning a thousand times.The breath emanating from that person just now can make people suffocate.But he was powerless to protect his daughter-in-law, he could only let his little daughter-in-law face it by herself.

"It's okay Dalang, that nobleman is not a bad person, as long as we treat each other with courtesy, he will not make things difficult for us."

Even though Su Jin said that, she couldn't help feeling terrified in her heart. After all, there is a word in this world called "imperial power is supreme" and another word is "do whatever you want!"

"But…!"

"Okay, let's not talk about it. The big deal is that the nobleman is here. Let's cook him a meal. Besides, he may not come."

"What?"

"Isn't there a saying? You forget things too much."

After hearing his wife's cold joke, Gu Chen felt a little better.

Three people arrived at the market, it was already afternoon, and there were not many people in the market.When I arrived at the meat stall and bought five catties of pork belly, I wanted to rush back.Passing by a donkey cart, Su Jin's eyes lit up when he smelled the fishy smell on the cart and saw the things on the donkey cart.

"Uncle, how much is the fish per catty?"

The uncle who sells fish looks at the last few swallow fish left. "Girl, I sell all these fish for five renminbi a catty, that's all. If you buy them all, we will count you four renminbi."

Su Jin pointed to the pile next to it and asked, "What about this one? How much money?"

"No one buys this sea worm at all. It is salvaged from the sea with the fish, and generally no one picks it casually. They are picked and thrown aside when selling fish. When they go back, they are fed to chickens and ducks. .Girl, what do you want it for?"

"Master, do you sell this?"

"Sell, girl, if you buy it, you can give me ten pennies for this pile."

Su Jin saw that this pile weighed about 20 kilograms. "Okay, you always help me move to the bullock cart."

The uncle who sells fish helped Su Jin put the so-called sea worms into the basket on the bullock cart.Su Jin paid ten cents, and the fish seller left cheerfully.

Smelling the fishy smell of the sea next to him, Liu Lang covered his nose. "Sister-in-law, why are you buying these sea worms? They're creepy."

Seeing that the bullock cart has left the market, it is on the road back to Xialiu Village.Su Jin looked at the hairtails, which were all three fingers wide, and said mysteriously: "This is not a sea worm at all, this is hairtail. It's delicious, let's make hairtail tonight."

"Really?" "Of course it is."

He got the answer from his sister-in-law that he could have delicious food in the evening. Although he was a little dubious, Liu Lang didn't dislike it.

Gu Chen looked at his daughter-in-law, as if he had taken advantage of it, and his mood improved a lot.

Facing the setting sun, the three of them sat on the bullock cart and drove home unsteadily.Most of the fields on both sides of the road are wheat.Looking at the golden wheat fields, Su Jin remembered the beautiful song "The Wind Blows the Wheat Waves."

Unfortunately, she couldn't remember the lyrics, otherwise she would have to sing a few lines, even if it scared the wolf away.

The journey was uneventful, and finally arrived home, looking at Mianmian and Dafu who were pouting at the gate of the courtyard.

"Mianmian, what's wrong?"

"The little girl and Bai Xiuzhu came back. You just went to the town, and they were sent back by your cousin. When you came back, you complained to your grandma, crying and howling, saying that the Bai family abused their mothers. We don't know if they abused them, but The two of them have really lost weight, that's a fact."

After speaking, Mianmian realized belatedly, the oiled paper umbrella in Su Jin's hand.

"Sister-in-law, your umbrella is so beautiful! How much did you pay for it?"

Su Jin gestured with a finger, "It's so expensive!" "It's okay! If Mianmian likes it, next time I go to town, my sister-in-law will buy one for you too."

"Really?" "Of course it is true!" "Sister-in-law, you are so kind. Mianmian's eyes lit up and went out again."

"I still don't want to buy it. If my cousin sees it, I have to trick my grandma to ask for it. If I don't give it, I have to mess with my mother."

Thinking of those wretched girls, Su Jin was not happy! "Okay, let's not talk about them."

Liulang, who helped move the hairtail into the kitchen, was about to drive the ox cart back to the compound.

"Liulang, wait!" Su Jin picked out a few hairtails and asked Liulang to take them to the courtyard for everyone to taste.

Mianmian brought Dafu over, looked at the long thing full of fishy smell in a wooden basin, and couldn't help but ask. "Sister-in-law, what is this?"

"This is hairtail!" "Hairtail?" "Yes!" Dafu also shouted "Fish, fish".

Su Jin let them play by themselves, got the scissors by herself, and started to clean up the hairtail.Gu Chen also sat aside and watched.

Su Jin divided the tidied hairtail into two basins, put the wide part in one basin, and put the narrow tail part in another basin.

Only after picking up a few fish did Liulang come over dejectedly carrying the hairtail.Seeing my brother and sister-in-law faltering and saying: "My sister-in-law and my second aunt said that if you don't give good things, you won't be able to give away such crap. They don't want it, for fear of being poisoned to death."

Su Jin was annoyed, because she was still complaining that she didn't give them the bracelets.It's good to be afraid of dying from medicine, I can save things in the future.

"Don't care about them, let's eat by ourselves at night." Xin said: Wait, I won't kill you all.

For dinner, Su Jin cooked sorghum rice, prepared to eat water rice, afraid that Gu Chen's stomach and intestines were weak, so he left a large bowl of rice porridge for him.

Start to burn the pot again and fry the hairtail.When the oil is hot, add the hairtail wrapped in flour. After a while, the smell of fried fish comes out.

A gust of wind blows, let me go!God is here to help.There is dinner in the compound!A small wind blew by, bringing a strong fragrance.This smell is different from the smell of meat.But it is more attractive than the meaty fragrance.

People who smell the fragrance can't help swallowing. "What? It's so fragrant!" Gu Jiaxing asked.

"It must be a small courtyard, so why do you cook delicious food. You don't know how to be filial to the elderly if you are not filial, always eating alone." Da Wan's mouth smeared the young couple.
