When Xiao Meiniang heard Xue Yaya say "pieces after piece", she deliberately glanced at her little granddaughter. She always felt that there was a suspicious reflective liquid at the corner of her granddaughter's mouth!

she:……

Then I looked at my wife, who was diligently washing onions, ginger, garlic and the... wild garlic she brought back?

She was convinced! There was a reason why the old man liked Yaya, he was just as greedy! Speaking of greed, Xiao Meiniang turned to look at Xue Xiaoxiao. Why didn't this girl say anything until now?

Xuelier was the one who finally did the fish slicing. Although he was tall and strong, he was quite deft, and he sliced ​​the fish in no time. Xiao Meiniang couldn't hold back the eagerness of the people, so she heated up the pheasant oil in a pan, fried the garlic, chili and other spices, and poured half of the chicken soup into the pan. Although Bai Xiuying didn't need to breastfeed now, in order to nourish the family, Xiao Meiniang would add a meat dish or cook pheasant soup every few days.

Xue Qianyan was choked and coughed a little. Bai Xiuying quickly carried him to the yard. Others were also choked out. At this moment, the smell in the kitchen was light. Everyone quickly went into the house. Xue Qianyan grabbed Xue Lier's legs and insisted that he hold her to watch how grandma cooked the fish. Xue Lier picked her up directly. He was also curious! Xue Shanhong was ordered by Xiao Meiniang to chop the fish meat that was specially left just now, the one with the least bones.

More water was added to the soup, and then wild garlic and other ingredients were put in. Xiao Meiniang thought for a while, and poured half a bowl of vinegar into it. Xue Li'er frowned, and Xue Yunyun and Xue Xiaoxiao had the same expression - it's so sour!

After the fish fillets were put into the pot and boiled for a while, Xiao Meiniang also added Chinese cabbage leaves to the pot, and then used a large porcelain bowl directly after the fish was out of the pot.

"I should have put some pancakes on it!"

Xue Xiaoxiao didn't say anything when she saw the fish, but now she shouted, "Paste now!"

Xiao Meiniang pinched her chin with amusement. Fearing that the child couldn't eat spicy food, she added some flour, sesame oil and salt to the minced fish. Bai Xiuying washed the spinach and mixed cornmeal. The spinach fish ball soup and corn cakes were served. The family washed their hands and sat down. Xiao Meiniang told everyone to eat first. Xue Yaya put down her chopsticks and followed her out.

She stopped for a while, leaning against the wall, and marinated the remaining fish with coarse salt and put it in a basin.

"Grandma, there are still some fish at the back, should we pickle them all?"

Xiao Meiniang looked at her little granddaughter who had followed her and asked in surprise, "Anything else?"

Xue Yaya nodded: "Of course there is! Grandma, let's go in and eat!"

Why not let her father do the rest of the work!

Xiao Meiniang felt warm in her heart. When she entered the house, she found that no one had started eating. When she sat down, Xue Shanhong said, "Eat!"

The fish soup lacked spices. Xue Xiaoxiao originally thought that the half bowl of vinegar would make it very sour, but Xue Qianyan kept saying "so cuddly".

She couldn't help but move her chopsticks, and then she continued to eat even though the spiciness made her cry. Xue Yaya was small but had a big appetite, so she ate the cabbage with corn cakes dipped in fish soup. Xiao Meiniang picked up a fish ball for her, and she raised her mouth, like a little swallow crying for food, and opened her mouth directly to Xiao Meiniang, "Ah". Xiao Meiniang retracted her chopsticks, picked up half of the ball, blew it, and fed it to her mouth. She couldn't help but kiss her on the face.

Xue Yaya looked at her grandmother in bewilderment and said affirmatively: "Grandma, eat dumplings with fish soup! It's delicious!"

As he spoke, he nodded. Xue Xiaoxiao quickly picked up a dumpling and dipped it in the fish soup. She ate it and nodded: "Delicious!"

Xue Qianyan imitated her third sister, while Xue Duoduo took half a dumpling and dipped it in the fish soup, then said to Xue Yaya across the table:

"Sister, come, ah!"

Xue Yaya opened her mouth reflexively, and the result was that the whole family, including Xue Qianyan, followed suit and fed her half a fish ball each. She ate most of a pancake and drank half a bowl of spinach soup. When Xue Shanhong wanted to feed her more, Xue Yaya shook her head, oh, she was too full!

Xue Shanhong helped Xue Yaya rub her belly, Bai Xiuying washed the dishes, and Xiao Meiniang poured hot water for the children to wash. Xue Duoduo said:

"Where did the fish come from?"

She had been busy practicing calligraphy with her sister this afternoon, and hadn't noticed Xue Shanhong coming back to ask for the needle. Xue Shanhong didn't say anything, so Xue Yaya said, "My grandfather caught it!"

She turned around and said to Xue Shanhong: "My Lord, we need good hooks and lines, and we need to find some fish roasting."

Xue Shanhong thought of the fish in the small pond and sighed, "This is too expensive."

Xue Yaya looked at the old man's sad face - she had forgotten that old people are very careful in their lives, and using a needle as a fishhook is probably already the limit.

Xue Xiaoxiao asked: "How do you eat that small fish?"

Xue Yunyun and the others diverted their attention, and Xiao Meiniang said, "It's fine to braise or make soup!"

She couldn't help but say, "Carp soup can increase milk production."

Xue Yaya said: "Grandma Zhang's aunt gave birth to a baby!"

I heard there is not much milk!

Xue Shanhong looked at his clever but dull little granddaughter, then looked at Xiao Meiniang, and suddenly said, "Let's ask her family if they want us to go fishing later."

Xue Yaya raised her eyes and looked at him: "My Lord, you are so smart!"

This was what her mother usually said to praise them, it was exaggerated and conspicuous. But she used it to praise her grandfather, which was so out of place that Pianxue Shanhong laughed out loud.

When Xuelier went up the mountain, Xueshanhong urged him, and the two went directly to the county town at noon. Xiao Meiniang pickled the fish and hung it under the eaves, while Xue Yaya and her sister learned to read while basking in the sun. In less than half an hour, she fell asleep on Bai Xiuying's legs.

"Yaya, why did you go to bed so early today?"

"I guess I slept too late last night." Xiao Meiniang also took out the thread and cloth. She was in a hurry to make linings for her granddaughters. Xue Yunyun was already twelve years old, so she had to start making small clothes.

Bai Xiuying was busy making shoes. Xuelier's shoes were worn out from running in and out of the mountains. She had no time or energy to do these things when she was busy in the spring. When Xue Yaya woke up from her nap, Xueshanhong and Xuelier just came back from the county. Xiao Meiniang was busy making hot noodle soup for them, which was made of corn flour and wheat flour.

Of course, they prefer to eat rice, but after the rice is harvested, they have to pay the public tax, and the price of rice is high, so how can they bear to eat it themselves? Eating it two or three times a month is really a well-off family in the village.

Xue Yaya kicked and stomped, ignoring her brothers and sisters who were sitting around her grandfather, and ran to open the backpack. When she saw two fish hooks inside, her eyes lit up. She went to the kitchen compartment and took out the narrow basket. When Xue Shanhong put down his bowl and chopsticks, Xue Yaya said, "Grandpa, let's go to the river!"

Looking at his granddaughter with bright eyes, Xue Shanhong nodded and pushed Xue Yaya away in a wheelbarrow with a small bench on it. The children were so excited that they couldn't calm down. Xiao Meiniang said to Xue Lier who was in a daze, "Take the children to find your father and Xiao Xiao."

Conveniently, she even went out to take out Xue Yaya's blanket: "I saw Yaya give it to her. It's so cold by the river!"

"What about my father?"

"Just freeze!"
