Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family

Wangjia Village is not a big village, with only about forty households in total.

The news that Zheng Xiaoman was so angry at Matchmaker Li that he vomited blood spread throughout the village that afternoon.

Matchmaker Li was actually still making up stories about Zheng Xiaoman in the village. It was obvious that she didn't know what unpleasant things Zheng Xiaoman said to make the other person so angry that he was vomiting blood.

This matchmaker Li is really good at confusing right and wrong. Good and bad are all determined by her nonsense words.

For a time, families with daughters in Wangjia Village all listed Matchmaker Li as someone they would refuse to have any contact with.

Even those who don't have a daughter would not be willing to invite such a matchmaker to find a marriage for their children.

With someone like her, it's unclear whether we're going to be friends or enemies.

Matchmaker Li's job was completely ruined in Wangjia Village.

When La Mei Niang returned home, she was also scolded by her husband. It turned out that after Wang Dehai left, he went to find Wang Wenchang and asked her to discipline her wife at home.

There were quite a few people gathered around at the time. Wang Wenchang's face turned red with embarrassment, and he was angry at his wife for always causing trouble for him.

La Mei Niang was beaten and didn't dare to go out for several days. The village suddenly became quiet.

On the afternoon of the day Zheng Xiaoman was released from lockdown, Zhao Laosan and his family came over with a basket of eggs.

Goudan came up to Zheng Xiaoman and said, "Sister Xiaoman, are you okay? Don't be afraid. It's okay. I will marry you when I grow up."

Zheng Xiaoman looked at him and rubbed his head with amusement, "Say goodbye, I don't need you to marry me. I heard that you also went to school, how have you been studying these two days?"

Goudan chuckled, "Sister Xiaoman, I've learned really well, the teacher even praised me."

"Oh, Goudan is so amazing, he was even praised by the Master."

Goudan scratched his head in embarrassment, "Sister Xiaoman, please don't call me Goudan anymore. The teacher said that we should call each other by our full names after we finish school."

"Famous name? You have a real name?" Zheng Xiaoman teased him, pretending to be surprised.

"Sister Xiaoman, of course I have a real name. How can there be someone called Goudan?" Goudan glared at her with dissatisfaction.

"Hahaha, okay, then what's your full name?" Zheng Xiaoman asked with a smile.

"My name is Zhao Shu, which means "tree" in Chinese. My father hoped that I would grow up to be as strong as a tree."

Zheng Xiaoman gave him a thumbs up and said, "Well, it's a good name, not bad. I hope you can be like a big tree, upright and strong in the future."

In the evening, Zhou Chunfeng invited her family to have dinner at her home, and they brought over a basket of eggs, which was a very valuable gift in those days.

Zhao Laosan couldn't refuse, so he agreed.

Zhou Chunfeng thought that the Yang family had brought a pheasant before, so she asked her eldest son to go over and invite the Yang family as well.

Li Cuixia had always wanted to spend more time with the Zheng family, so she agreed.

Now there were more people eating at home, and there were not enough tables and chairs at home, so Li Cuixia asked her husband and son to move all the tables and chairs over.

Zhou Chunfeng was thinking about what to make in the evening. "Xiaoman, I salted all the offal that you guys didn't bring back from town. Let's make some pig offal tonight.

Pork liver and heart are boiled, but pig intestines are fried.”

"Okay, mom, let me cook the offal. We have some dried loaches at home, and I'll stew the loaches with eggplant later."

"Okay, I'll go pick some more leeks from the field and make another plate of leek scrambled eggs. Also give me some of your shrimp paste and mushroom sauce, so that if the vegetables are not enough, I can still have some sauce."

Putting these together, there are four or five dishes.

Li Cuixia and Goudan's mother followed him to the kitchen, "Sister-in-law, is there anything I can help you with?"

Zhou Chunfeng waved her hands quickly, "No, no, you are the guests today, how can I ask you to help me?"

Li Cuixia smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, why are you being so polite to us? We don't need to be so particular.

Do you want to wash all these vegetables? I'll take them to the well and wash them."

Seeing her carrying the dishes out, Zhou Chunfeng stopped trying to stop her.

Goudan's mother stayed in the kitchen to help cut vegetables. She watched Zheng Xiaoman cutting and cooking vegetables skillfully. Her movements were more skillful than those of her, who had been cooking for decades.

It’s a pity that her son Goudan is too young, otherwise if she married a wife like Xiaoman, she could live out her retirement in peace.

After Li Cuixia finished washing the vegetables, she came in and went to Zheng Xiaoman to help her.

Zheng Xiaoman first cooks the pork liver, then heats oil in another pot, then throws the chopped green onions into the pot and stir-frys.

Then add water and put the dried loach and eggplant into the pot.

The aroma of food soon wafted out of the pot. Li Cuixia sniffed and asked, "Xiao Man, what are you cooking? Why does it smell so good?"

She didn't recognize that what Zheng Xiaoman put in was dried loach.

"Aunt, I made loach stewed with eggplant."

"Loach? The black loach in our river?"

"Yes, my loaches were marinated with seasonings and then dried. You can just cook them when you want to eat them."

Li Cuixia has eaten loach, which is not tasty.

But she had never eaten dried loach before, and the smell in the pot was quite fragrant.

After the pork liver is cooked, Zheng Xiaoman cleans the pot and continues to stir-fry the pork intestines.

Li Cuixia watched these things that they never ate turned into delicious dishes in Zheng Xiaoman's hands.

She couldn't help but taste a piece. She felt that what she had eaten before might have been fake. The taste was nothing like the other.

Finally, Goudan’s mother also came over to watch together. The aroma of the food made her drool.

After Zheng Xiaoman finished cooking his own dish, Zhou Chunfeng took over and started frying leeks and eggs.

The four dishes were ready quickly. The staple food was the steamed buns made from acorn flour and white flour that the family had made earlier. They just had to be heated up.

Li Cuixia and Goudan's mother helped put the food on the table. There were two tables in the room, one for the men and one for the women.

After everyone sat down, Zheng Dashan said, "There is nothing prepared today. It's all homely food. Don't be disgusted."

Zhao Laosan smelled the fragrance on the table and waved his hand, saying, "Brother Zheng, please don't be polite. I smell that the food in your house is much better than that in mine."

Yang Changqing also smiled and said, "That's right, I think it smells so good just by smelling it."

"Haha, that's good, everyone start eating."

As soon as Zheng Dashan finished speaking, Zhao Laosan couldn't wait to pick up a piece of pig intestines with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

"Wow, smells good. This large intestine smells really good."

After that, he tried other dishes, and after one taste, there was only one word that came to his mind: delicious.

Two words: delicious.

The female guests also started eating. The first dish Li Cuixia ate was the dried loach stewed with eggplant.

After taking a bite, she fell in love with the taste. The loach did not have any earthy smell at all, but was instead particularly fresh.

For a moment, the only sound in the room was the sound of chewing, and no one spoke.

After a long while, everyone slowed down their eating pace.

The more Li Cuixia looked at Zheng Xiaoman, the more she liked him. "Xiaoman, how do you make this dish? I've also made loach at home, and the taste is unbearable."

Goudan's mother was also very curious, so Zheng Xiaoman told them how to deal with loaches.

"Oh, it turns out that the loach needs to be raised for two days before it can spit out all the mud. No wonder it tastes so bad.

It is said that Xiaoman is a very smart girl. I think few people can match her cooking skills."

Li Cuixia also praised, "That's right. If Xiaoman hadn't said it, we wouldn't have thought that this loach could do this. This child, the more I see him, the more I like him. It would be great if this child was ours."

Yang Shuhuai on the other side was choked by his mother's words. He covered his lips and coughed twice.

Zheng Xiaoman turned around and gave him a strange look, then stood up and poured him a bowl of water, "Brother Shuhuai, drink some water."

Yang Shuhuai nodded and thanked him. Li Cuixia looked at her son and Xiaoman with eyes that were so bright that it was frightening.

Yang Shuhuai couldn't help but glare at his mother. This is someone else's family, don't go too far.

Li Cuixia was not afraid of him and even rolled her eyes at her son.

Yang Shuhuai was so angry that he was afraid that his mother would say something earth-shattering again.

Zhou Chunfeng was also paying attention to her daughter and Yang Shuhuai. Li Cuixia had been praising her daughter just now, so even if she was slow, she reacted.

The Yang family really likes their Xiaoman.

Zhou Chunfeng looked at Yang Shuhuai, who was standing in the elegant manner, and her heart was filled with satisfaction.

After pouring the water, Zheng Xiaoman came back to continue eating. She was a little puzzled when she saw her mother's smiling face.

What is this saying? Her mother is so happy?

This time even Goudan's mother noticed something. No wonder Sister Yang spoke so strongly for Xiaoman before. It turned out that she had fallen in love with the girl.

During this meal, only the children were concentrating on eating, while the adults were all thinking about their own things.
