Leaving Xu Jiashu and Man Yuan to eat at home, Song Hongguo cooked a few more dishes, such as oily salted duck eggs, cold yuba and fungus, scrambled eggs with Chinese toon, and stewed loach with tofu. The main dish was naturally spicy crayfish. It was served on an old-fashioned enamel tea tray. When it was brought out, it was bright red and fragrant.

A few people sat on the stone table under the persimmon tree to eat. Before eating, Man Yuan and Ling Zhi had already sent a bowl to Zhao Baoqing and Zhao Yulian respectively. When Man Yuan was delivering the food, he was almost caught by his own father. He refused to let go, saying that it was not appropriate to eat at other people's homes, but in fact he seriously suspected that his father was jealous.

Huh, do you think he can't see it?His father's mouth watered when he smelled the scent of crayfish, and he wished he could eat it all by himself. But with so many people in the family, if you divide it into a circle, it would be good if you could only eat two or three in your mouth. How could he compare to him? Open it to eat?

Not to mention, in addition to crayfish, there are other delicious foods. He remembers it very clearly. Ever since he ate at his cousin's house, his father has been particularly thinking about his cousin's cooking skills. He thought about it repeatedly after returning home. , describing to him how fragrant and delicious each dish was, he was so greedy that he cried. Now it was finally his turn. After he finished eating and went back, he must tell his father carefully.

While eating happily, he told Song Hongguo.

Song Hongguo was amused by his idea, "You are really your father's eldest son!"

Man Yuan proudly patted his chest and said, "That must be the case. My father said there is an idiom called, by the way, looking at plum blossoms to quench thirst. It doesn't matter if you can't eat it in your mouth. Just listen to it and just enjoy it. Hehe, wait. Go back and let my father look at the plum blossoms to quench his thirst. Who told me to be filial?"

Song Hongguo almost choked with laughter.

Xu Jiashu was overjoyed. After he was overjoyed, he sucked his finger that was stained with crayfish soup and sighed, "I didn't expect this crayfish to be so delicious. It used to be used to feed chickens, but it was such a waste. Don't mention it. If you think about it later when you are hungry, you may not be sure that plum blossoms can actually quench your thirst."

Ling Yuan didn't know the allusion of looking at plum blossoms to quench thirst. When he heard this, he asked Song Hongguo.

Song Hongguo told him the origin and origin of this allusion, and also extended other short stories about the hero.

Several people listened with great interest.

The Zhao family was also eating with gusto. A large bowl of crayfish was placed on the main table. No one was optimistic about this thing at first, but they couldn't resist the smell, so they started to look forward to it, especially when Zhao Zhenhua saw it. The look in his eyes was as eager as that of a hungry wolf, and even more eager to move.

Zhao Baoqing shared two of them. The moment he took it into his mouth, he was conquered. In the end, not only the shrimp meat and the soup on his hands, but also the shrimp shells were chewed and eaten.

The adults were still not satisfied, and the children shouted that they wanted to eat more, but the bottom of the bowl was already empty. Zhao Baoqing told his sons, "Bring a net with you when you have time in the evening, and go look for it by the reed pond. There should be a lot of them." , you can eat as much as you want when you get it back."

Zhao Zhenhua didn't want to offend his father, but he couldn't help but tell the truth, "Dad, it's not like we haven't eaten it before. It has an earthy smell and is not as delicious as the wild vegetables in the field. Who is rare? Now the whole family is grabbing it It’s because of my cousin’s craftsmanship..."

Before he could finish speaking, someone rushed over to him and said, "Then let my cousin help me do it. I'm not an outsider..."

That tone of matter-of-factness belonged to his second sister-in-law. Zhao Zhenhua glanced at his second brother first. His second brother pretended not to hear and sneered in his heart.Then he looked at his second sister-in-law, Huang Juan, and said, "Since you are not an outsider, why not just tell your cousin and ask her to teach the second sister-in-law the recipe? This way, the second sister-in-law will have more things to do, and our family will be able to open up in the future." eat……"

Huang Juan's face froze, what's the use of learning that skill?Does she lack the formula?What she lacked was those oils and ingredients. Why was the crayfish that Song Hongguo sent so delicious? Naturally, she was willing to give it away. How could she not know? She just wanted to take advantage of it, and it was tacitly understood, but Zhao Zhenhua didn't. Long wink.

She said with a smile, "My cousin and I are not familiar with each other. It is better for the three younger siblings to do such a good thing. They are so close. My cousin definitely doesn't hide things and is willing to teach me anything, right?" , Third brother and sister? Your whole family is staying over there to eat now. Who in our family is so lucky?"

Listening to her strange remarks, Sun Shuhong was not used to her bad habits, and immediately said, "Second sister-in-law, what do you mean by this? Who am I offending by what I said to my cousin? As for Man Yuan, he is just talking to Ling Zhineng. How come we are talking about good fortune when we are having fun together? Besides, he is not at home to eat, so what he saves is the food rations for the whole family. Am I the only one who takes advantage? Besides, when did Hongguo send something, it was not for the whole family, it seems like that I have the same benefits as my cousin in private."

Huang Juan denied it, "You're wrong, I don't have the thoughts you mentioned..."

Sun Shuhong interrupted without giving any face, "Do you know in your heart that no one is a fool anyway?"

"I……"

"Okay!" Zhao Baoqing's wife put down the bowl unhappily, her voice was a little loud, and the room became quiet for a moment. She glanced at the faces of several daughters-in-law lukewarmly, not much in front of the children. What to say, just say, "When you're full, go find work, so you don't get into trouble when you're free."

The crowd dispersed.

Zhao Zhenhua walked at the end, seemingly unaffected by what he just said, and asked with a playful smile, "Dad, are you still going to catch crayfish?"

Zhao Baoqing glared at him angrily, "What the hell, get out of here!"

Zhao Zhenhua said, "But Shuhong promised my cousin that when I catch the lobsters for her to cook, the two families will split it half and half. Isn't it bad to break a promise?"

Seeing his deliberately embarrassed face, Zhao Baoqing became even more angry and couldn't help but kick him, "Just hold it in and get out of here!"

Only then did Zhao Zhenhua leave happily.

When there were only two people left in the hall, Zhao Baoqing's daughter-in-law sighed, "The second brother's family is becoming more and more unruly. He wants to take advantage of everyone. He is so short-sighted that it would be a joke if he told it. But the third family's family is more sensible." , can also be a good person, but her talk is getting worse and worse. The boss looks honest, does not help on both sides, and does not offend anyone, but she is the sister-in-law, how can she not worry at all and just watch the fun? …”

The three daughters-in-law scolded each other. After hearing this, Zhao Baoqing chuckled and said, "You are still too good-tempered. Try it with a powerful mother-in-law. You will rub them off so hard that they won't dare to think about anything."

"Hey, what are you doing to rub them against? They all came from being daughters-in-law, so why bother? Besides, it will also embarrass the sons." Zhao Baoqing's daughter-in-law saw it very clearly, "I'm not afraid that they won't get along, are I? , that’s all, I’m afraid there will be rifts between my sons..."

Hearing this, Zhao Baoqing fell silent for a moment and said after a while, "They will always separate their families in the future. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. We can't control that much."
