hunting and farming husband

Chapter 21 Sitting in rows and eating meat

"Uncle Dongdong, hug me."

Seeing the timidity of strangers, Ye Rendong was instantly healed by Yuan Xiao's cuteness, and took the little doll as if bewitched.

The child is soft, with just the right amount of baby fat on his face, and a scent of milk.

The four eyes met, and the two pairs of round eyes were full of curiosity and joy.

"Go in, don't block the door." Tan Chunliu stepped forward and called for someone to come in.

Cheng Lijun sat down with Cheng Langyu.

Ye Rendong was held back by Zhong Lingxiu.

Zhong Lingxiu, like her own cub, likes cute ones like Ye Rendong.

He raised his eyebrows in a heroic spirit, and said excitedly: "It's so beautiful, let's go, my sister-in-law will take you to eat pig's trotters."

Ye Liandong was dazed, unable to resist Zhong Lingxiu's strength, and was led into the kitchen filled with the smell of stewed pig's trotters.

Openly open a small stove.

In the yard

Four men, each occupying one side of the table.

One father, one son, two grandsons.

Cheng Langyu's eyes flicked to Limin's bowl of wolfberry and red date water, and he looked calmly at his grandfather, waiting for him to speak.

Cheng Lijun is gentle and gentle, looking back at his father with a smile.

Cheng Anming couldn't help curling his lips in disgust, his eldest son is really... not ashamed.

Cheng Zhongshu knocked his pipe down on the table, attracting their attention.

Then he said: "I went to the town this morning to ask. Now, if you want to build three main houses, you need 20 taels to 30 taels, and for four main houses, you need 25 taels to 40 taels."

The old man closed his eyes under the sunlight. "Both the firewood room and the kitchen, it depends on what you want."

Cheng Langyu thought for a while and said, "Three main rooms are fine."

If it is not enough in the future, expand it.

Cheng Zhongshu also felt that it was feasible. He just came back to live, so he shouldn't be too extravagant.

He continued: "The 20 taels, the construction period will take three months, and the materials are inferior. Grandpa thinks you don't need it."

"The medium one is 25 taels. The wood is made of fir, blue bricks and black tiles. It requires less labor and the construction period is two months."

"The best one is 30 taels. It is made by a master chef. The materials are actually the same, but more people are needed, and the construction period is only one month."

Cheng Langyu felt that the Chinese New Year would be over a month away, and he wanted to let Ye Liandong live in before that.

"That's 30 taels."

Cheng Lijun looked at his father's hesitating and hesitant expression, his fox eyes slightly rolled up, and he pouted his chin and said: "Brother, it's too far over there."

Cheng Anming nodded immediately.

It is a good thing for a nephew to stand up, but it is not easy for the family to take care of him in such a far away place.

Cheng Langyu shook his head: "I'm used to living there."

Cheng Lijun: "My brother has grown up and has his own ideas. Not bad, not bad."

Cheng Anming glanced at him.

I just helped to speak, but the next sentence changed.

Cheng Lijun smiled warmly.

Cheng Langyu knew that his eldest brother was speaking for his uncle, but he didn't take it seriously.Continued: "Grandfather, when can we start work?"

"What's the hurry!" Cheng Zhongshu raised his beard. "The follow-up has not been discussed yet."

"Does the furniture have to be custom-made?"

"Should I go to the town to order, or Carpenter Li?"

Cheng Lijun shook his head slowly like a lazy fox.

Young people, you can't be impatient.

kitchen

Ye Liandong was dragged by his sister-in-law who was half a head taller than him.He was pushed onto the bench like a chick, and sat in a row with Cheng Shao and Cheng Baoer who were huddled in the kitchen.

Yuanxiao Xiaotuanzi slid off his knees and rummaged by the woodpile, like little garlic planted sideways.

Ye Rendong pulled the child's clothes: "What are you looking for, I'll help you find it."

Yuanxiao's little short hand stretched hard, half squatted and moved back, dragging out a disc meadow.

Ye Liandong's almond eyes slightly opened, watching seriously.

The face of the Yuanxiao steamed stuffed bun was flushed red, and grass clippings stood on the bun.

He braced his knees, panting a few times.Put the meadow next to Honeysuckle, and sit back together with the cushion.

"Be careful!" Ye Liandong lowered his body to protect him.

Zhong Lingxiu smiled brightly at her foolishness. "It's okay, it's okay, the child is skinny."

She moved swiftly, scooped up the meat and handed it to them in a few strokes.

Touching their heads one by one, she smiled brightly.

Very nice.

Ye Liandong was hit on the head, he was stunned, staring at Zhong Lingxiu fixedly.

"Sister-in-law..."

Zhong Lingxiu obviously regarded him and Xiaowa as a group, but he is an adult, how could he mix with the dolls and make a fuss?

And the elders are still there.

Elder Du Jinhe: "Brother Dong, eat more, gain weight, and be as healthy as our Lingxiu."

Elder Tan Chunliu: "Brother Dong, I don't have enough milk for you."

Zhong Lingxiu winked at him: "Eat quickly."

In the end, unable to withstand the encouragement of the three adults and three children, Ye Rendong gnawed on the pig's feet with a shameful face.

Zhong Lingxiu grasped the shovel with joy.

"That's good."

The guys in the kitchen had just finished eating, and the guys outside also discussed it.

Zhong Lingxiu glanced at the yard, then bowed her head to her Prime Minister.

Warm and moist, like the drizzle in early spring, Zhong Lingxiu almost wanted to pounce on someone and roll around in her arms.

Regretfully looking at the sky, Zhong Lingxiu turned around and brought the food to the table.

A large pot of steaming stewed pig's trotters, a plate of sour radishes cut into flower knives, sausages of uniform thickness, and a plate of fried dried shepherd's purse were served on the table.

The color, fragrance and taste are complete, and the combination of meat and vegetables can't be richer.

The old lady stood at the door and yelled: "Dinner is ready!"

Cheng Zhongshu got up on his old legs, and led a group of men into the main room.

And a few half-fed ones were rushed to the table again, and a new round of "crusade" began.

Ye Rendong sat beside Cheng Langyu.Beside him are Zhong Lingxiu and Cheng Lijun.

Ye Liandong was somewhat familiar with this sister-in-law, and he was relieved to be caught between the husband-in-law and the sister-in-law.But that bowl has a lot of meat, and he can't eat much now.

Ye Liandong was worried that it would be impolite to leave the table early, so he took small bites.

Cheng Langyu saw that he was eating slowly like counting rice, and touched Ye Liandong's stomach.

"ate too much?"

His voice was not deliberately lowered, which attracted everyone's attention.

Like a frightened rabbit, Ye Liandong buried her head in the bowl: "No."

Cheng Langyu pinched his slender neck and lifted his head up. "Fu Lang eat more."

Seeing their affection, Zhong Lingxiu quietly reached out to the next door with her hand under the table, and patted Cheng Lijun's belly like a sea otter.

It made the man show his face at him.

Zhong Lingxiu was in a great mood to serve her husband some food.

As a weak teacher, her husband's physique is not as good as hers.

"Eat more pork leg meat to strengthen your feet." Otherwise, she would be reluctant to let him walk every time she went to town.If it wasn't for the husband's refusal, she could just carry him away.

Cheng Lijun accepted his wife's feeding, his fox eyes half-closed comfortably.

For a meal, several elders ate their own food, and did not look at the two young couples at all.

Panic!

Just Cheng Limin is stupid, take a look, and eat something.Turning grief and anger into appetite, I ate three bowls.

Extremely envious!

After the meal, the five-year-old Cheng Shao sat by the table in an orderly manner.When everyone got off the table, he tiptoed to collect the bowls.

Tan Chunliu was surprised: "Want to wash the dishes again?"

Behind Cheng Shao's little hand, he peeked at Tan Chunliu: "Grandma, let me wash."

The sun had already shone into the main room, and it was orange-yellow. The thigh-high child turned his back to the light, and his face was hidden in the darkness.

Looking lonely and timid.

Tan Chunliu thought of his two parents who didn't care about anything, and said, "You are still young, and it's not too late to wash when you grow up."

She figured it out last night, the child is not to blame.These two virtues are not bad and can be taught well.

Besides, the old lady was not in the mood to let the child who had just reached the height of the table clean up the dishes.

Cheng Baoer wrung her fingers, took her sister back a step, and did not delay the adult's work.

Cheng Baoer grabbed Cheng Shao's trouser legs, the grape beads were clear.

"Brother, I want to go home."

Children are afraid of strangers. Although the ancestral house is full of Cheng Baoer's closest relatives, she is only two years old.

Cheng Shao also wanted to go home.

No matter how old he is, he is still a five-year-old child.However, Grandma told him last night that Grandma took her brother out...

Cheng Bao'er pursed her mouth and immediately filled her eyes with tears.

Cheng Shao squeezed his younger sister's hand, hid in the shadows and said, "Grandma, isn't Grandma coming back yet?"

When Tan Chunliu heard this, he immediately thought of Du Qiuhong, and his face was a little ugly.

It's best not to come back even if you kill him!

Cheng Shao keenly felt Tan Chunliu's emotions, shrinking his neck, his fingertips turned white.

"Grandma, I'm not looking for Grandma anymore, don't be angry." A shadow on the ground trembled and disappeared completely in the light.

Seeing that the child was frightened, Tan Chunliu closed her eyes tightly.

For such a small child, his mother is not a thing, and it will be difficult to live in the future.

The old lady was in a daze, feeling a little weak facing the door.She said: "Grandma also said last night that your grandma made a mistake and ran away with your brother."

"If you want to follow your mother, I will send you there."

Tan Chunliu had a simpler idea than Cheng Zhongshu. If they wanted to follow Du Qiuhong, they should take someone to see it.

Cheng Shao's eyes were slightly red, and he squeezed his younger sister's hand tightly: "No, I won't go to find A Niang."

Cheng Bao'er is still young and doesn't know how to read facial expressions.When she heard that she was looking for someone, she said happily, "I'm looking for my mother, my brother is looking for me!"

Zhong Lingxiu looked for the sound.The little girl was bored all day yesterday, this was the first time she was so lively after arriving at the ancestral house, and her pigtails flew up.

Seeing these two children, Ye Liandong felt mixed feelings in his heart.

Ah Yu's mother...

Zhong Lingxiu touched the heads of the two children distressedly. They are so small, what do they know.

She said: "Grandma, send it over and let them have a look. If you want to stay or go back, it's up to them."

"If you are worried, at worst, take a look quietly when you go to the street."

Ye Rendong didn't know what to say when he thought of the news that Du Qiuhong was beaten.

Children just don't want to die until they reach the Yellow River, so maybe you will know when you take them to see them.At least, he used to be like this.

It just so happened that Cheng Langyu and his grandfather were going to the town to pay the deposit in the afternoon, and they happened to take someone there with them.

Seeing that Grandma really nodded, Cheng Shao's thin face couldn't hide his uneasiness.

He knew that the aunts and grandfathers in the family didn't like A Niang, nor did they like A Daddy.But he is still young, without a mother, he is afraid that he will be like Miki in the village.

The family doesn't care, they are dressed in rags, and they can only beg for food from each family every day.

Cheng Shao pulled his younger sister, and in a daze swept across the adults' legs.

He suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Linic, like grabbing driftwood in the water.With a crying voice, he said: "Sister-in-law..."
