Farmer's Ruyi Manor

Chapter 53 Digging Water Chestnuts

An Eight Immortals table can only seat 8 people, Xiaocao's family has 6 people, and Xiaohua's family has 4 people.So Mrs. Ruan and Jing Niang sat together, Jing Niang hugged the small pillars, and the six of Xiao Cao's family just made the table, and Xiao Hua chose to eat standing up.

Aunt Wang asked Xiaocao to stand and Xiaohua to sit.Xiao Hua smiled and said it was okay, she likes to eat standing up, let Xiao Cao sit.Wang Mei thought for a while that she was old, so she had to let the young one sit while she stood.In the end, I couldn't twist Xiaohua, so I had to sit and eat.In Xiaohua's heart, these are guests, how can they let the guests eat standing up.As for the mother, she has to feed her younger brother. Grandma's eyesight is not good, so it is best for her to eat standing up.

"Chang Gui, thank you very much today, and there is nothing to entertain at home, I hope you don't dislike it." When everyone had just scooped up the rice, Granny Ruan spoke.

"Auntie, you are still polite to me. If you are polite to me again, I will be angry. Look at how good your food is. I am a little embarrassed. It is so rich. Even if it is Chinese New Year, there are not so many dishes. These The dish smells delicious." The honest Wang Changgui was a little embarrassed, and wiped his face.

"Auntie, don't be polite to us as the head of the family. We are all neighbors and neighbors. It is right to help." Aunt Wang said.

Looking at the sincere faces of Wang Changgui's family, Mrs. Ruan and Jing Niang couldn't help but feel grateful. "Well, my aunt won't be polite to you anymore, let's stop talking so much, let's have dinner, and let everyone eat freely."

The little ones were waiting for this sentence, it was so delicious, their stomachs were already growling with hunger. "It's delicious, it's really delicious." Wang Ronghua yelled that it was delicious, and he gasped when he was overwhelmed by the heat, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Xiaocao was so focused on eating that her head was almost buried in the bowl, she didn't say anything, for fear that she would be slow to eat and would not be able to eat.Wang Mei may be older, and she is embarrassed to eat so eagerly, but it can be seen from the expression that she is still very satisfied with the food, and her mouth has not stopped.

"Mother, this is so delicious, you can make it for me later." Wang Rongcheng, the youngest son of the Wang family, yelled for his mother to make it for him as he ate.It was so enjoyable, I have never eaten such a delicious dish.

"Auntie, it's delicious. I didn't expect your food to be so delicious. It seems that I really made money today." Wang Changgui did not forget to praise while eating.

As for Xiaohua herself, she eats big mouthfuls, she really misses it too much, in this age when there is nothing to eat, who cares if she is picky or not, some food is good.

"Sister, it seems that I have to learn from you. It's really delicious. You have to teach me." Aunt Wang also felt delicious, so she couldn't help eating a few more mouthfuls. many.

"That's for sure, definitely teach." Jing Niang also thinks it's delicious, but she's not used to spicy food, so while eating, her face is flushed by the spicy food.

Mrs. Ruan is old, and her taste is a bit stronger than that of Jing Niang, so she eats these dishes more pleasantly and refreshingly.Mentally sighed, delicious, it seems that this is taught by Xiaohua.Thinking of this, I can't help but add another point to my liking for my granddaughter.

After eating, everyone nodded in satisfaction. Now the older ones chatted again, and the younger ones sat there with their stomachs propped up, unable to speak, while Xiao Hua was cleaning up the table and the kitchen.

Seeing that Xiaohua was busy, Xiaocao also walked into the kitchen to help: "Xiaohua, today's meal is really delicious, hehehe, let's go fishing together some other day."

As soon as Xiaocao finished eating, she was thinking about her next meal.

After seeing off Aunt Wang's family, Xiaohua's family sat in the yard and chatted.

"Mother, Xiao Hua taught me to cook today's food. I didn't expect it to be so delicious. It would be even better if there were less spicy peppers." Jing Niang is still thinking about it now.

"Sister...it's delicious..." Xiao Zhuzi admires her sister even more. He has never eaten such delicious food. Although he is still young, he always tries to give it not spicy when eating, or Jingniang specially chooses it. passed.But the little guy still tasted something delicious that he had never tasted before.

"Hehehe, Xiao Zhuzi is good, my sister will make more delicious food for Xiao Zhuzi in the future, okay?" Xiaohua has already started to tremble at this moment.

"Yes, our little flower is capable, and it's all a gift from God." Madam Ruan sighed, but she still didn't forget to thank God, because after all, all these things were bestowed on Xiaohua by the gods, and it was also a favor for their family.

Xiaohua looked up at the roof, "Mother, now that the roof is finished, I am no longer afraid of rain, no matter what, it will be much better than before, isn't it? layer."

"Yeah, I was thinking about going to Zhang Butcher's house in the next village to buy some meat for cooking for dinner tonight. Thanks to Uncle Wang and the others, the family doesn't have much money for him, so I should treat him to a meal. I wanted to buy some meat. Fortunately, the fish you got was fresh and delicious, and it was no worse than meat, which also saved money for meat. Now the family is asking for money everywhere, and there is not much left, so Dozens of big money. Looking at the weather, I guess it may rain again in the next few days. When I have time tomorrow, I will dig out the yard, and when the rain is over, I will plant the vegetable seeds, so that we can also have There is no need to eat other people’s vegetables or pick wild vegetables every day.”

After listening to Jing Niang's words, the old lady Ruan also said: "Yes, in the past, we were so poor that we didn't even have any vegetable seeds, and no one in the village was willing to associate with us. Only Changgui's family. But their Life is not easy, and there are not enough vegetable seeds. In previous years, we also picked wild vegetables, and the days became more and more difficult. Now the family is better, but there are too many places to spend money in the future. The small pillars are getting bigger and bigger. When I grow up, I have to save money for Xiao Zhuzi to study, and then I will save Xiao Hua for your dowry, hey..."

"Mother, grandma, let's not talk so much about being unhappy, believe me, the days to come will get better and better." Xiao Hua couldn't bear this dull atmosphere.

"Yeah, believe me, isn't this better than before?" Jing Niang sighed.She felt that she was useless, so she put all the pressure on her daughter, and let her worry about it.

"By the way, grandma. I found something good by the river today. Wait a minute. I'll get it." After speaking, she ran into the room and took her little basket.

"Mother, grandma, look, what is this?" This guy, when he was about to take it out, was mysterious, and he smiled when he was done.

"Um, what is this, I really don't know, mother, do you know?" Jing Niang looked at it, expressing that she really didn't understand and had never seen it.

Now that the sun was setting, Granny Ruan's eyesight was not good, so she took a water chestnut to her eyes, touched it carefully with her hand, and shook her head, expressing that she was not clear.

Xiaohua looked at Jingniang and Mrs. Ruan, and knew that maybe the people here really didn't know about water chestnuts.She has been to the market twice and has never seen it.Maybe the people here regard water chestnuts as weeds, and they don't know that there is something underneath.
