Chapter 48: Sister Qiaoyun
Since the accident, Qiaolian slept so sweetly for the first time, and when she woke up the next day, it was dawn outside.
The sisters chatted for a long time last night, and Qiaojuan got up late for the first time, the sisters looked at each other and smiled, and hurriedly put on their clothes and went to the ground to make a fire to cook.
Zhang's breakfast is simple, bud rice flour cakes, small rice porridge, and then take some pickles from the tank and cut them, which is very easy.
Both sisters were very good workers, and it didn't take long for them to be ready.
It happened that the four children also woke up, and hurriedly dressed the children, so that they all went out to relieve their hands and come back to wash their hands and eat.
After breakfast, Qiaojuan sent her eldest son Fenglin and led Jiakang Jiayuan out to play.
Don't look at the ice and snow outside, but the little babies are not afraid of the cold at all, and they are very happy to have snowball fights and build snowmen outside.
Jiakang Jiayuan looks good, wears new clothes, and Qiaolian cleans up the children, which is particularly rare, and there are several children who come over to play together without much effort.
In less than a day, the two children have a lot of friends, there are more children, and the fun is even crazier, Qiaolian doesn't care, just let the children play.
Many people in the village knew that the maiden sister of the Zhang family's daughter-in-law was here, and those who had good faith came to take a look.
"Oh, you two sisters look alike, they're both so handsome. You see, if you don't know this, you must think it's a couple. Someone saw Qiaolian's appearance and exclaimed.
Qiaolian and Qiaojuan are only two years apart, and the two look alike, and their size is almost the same, so why don't they look like twins when they stand together?
It is precisely because of this that the relationship between the sisters has been good since childhood, but the little sister Qiaoyun is a little worse than their age, and the relationship is much weaker.
"By the way, eldest sister, I forgot to ask, what about our little sister Qiaoyun? Why didn't you see her yesterday? Qiao Lian suddenly remembered that Qiao Yun was missing in the Chen family yesterday, where did the little sister go?
"Qiaoyun? got married, our mother chose a family affair and married to Linjiang. Before you came, our little sister got married. ”
Speaking of the little sister, Qiaojuan's face is a little not very good-looking.
"Isn't my little sister only fifteen? Why did you get married? Are we willing to do it? The old lady doesn't stay around for a few more years?
The family doesn't say that they can't eat or drink like before, so why bother to let my little sister marry so early? Who did you marry? What do you do at home? ”
When Qiao Lian heard the news of her little sister's marriage, she couldn't help but sigh.
I always thought that my mother felt sorry for my little sister, and I thought that my mother could be different from my little sister, but the result was still the same, and I got married at the age of fifteen.
"It is said that he is a cadre of some factory, and a wife died in front of him, leaving two children."
As soon as she said this, Qiaojuan was angry, their mother never thought about her daughter, and her daughter was a cash cow in her eyes, as long as she could exchange money.
"What? Our little sister married to fill the house? That man died with his wife and two children, so he shouldn't be too young, right?
Why can our mother bear it? How much dowry is given at the other end? "Apart from this reason, Qiao Lian really can't find any other reason.
"Yes, the dowry was a lot, ninety dollars for the money alone, and a pair of silver bracelets, two clothes and four pieces of fabric.
Except for the two clothes, the rest of our mother didn't take it away from my little sister, it was similar to us at that time, and the whole child was a girl. Qiaojuan said angrily.
"That person is twenty-eight years old, thirteen years older than Xiaomei, and is about to catch up with Xiaomei's father, why do you say our mother is so ruthless? Why didn't she think about her daughter? ”
Qiao Lian also sighed when she heard this, their mother, she is really greedy for money, her daughter is a cash cow in her eyes, as long as she can get money, she doesn't care who the other party is.
A fifteen-year-old girl, married to a twenty-eight-year-old man, is going to be a stepmother when she enters the door, and the little sister is so simple, she doesn't know how to live this day.
"If you can get that money, the man's family should be good, and the little sister will not suffer hardship.
Alas, we can only think like this now, waiting for time, the eldest sister accompanied me to see the little sister, I haven't seen it for all these years, I think it's panicked. ”
Qiaolian's relationship with her little sister is not deep, but after all, they are sisters, and they haven't seen each other for several years.
"Cheng, wait for the New Year, let your brother-in-law catch the car, let's go over and have a look. To be honest, I'm also worried, I don't know how my little sister is doing over there?
Not a few years ago, your brother-in-law was too busy, and he could make a lot of money harvesting in winter, so he couldn't ask for leave anymore. ”
Qiaojuan looked up at the sky outside and put away the needle and thread in her hand.
"It's not early, you have to prepare for cooking, your brother-in-law has to come back for dinner in the evening, he has made a lot of efforts in the mountains this day, and this meal must be eaten well in the evening."
As she spoke, Qiao Juan put her things on the ground, "Let's stew sauerkraut tonight."
A few days ago, there were a lot of big bones in the pig, and the big bones were boiled in soup and stewed with sauerkraut, which tasted good and the oil and water were enough, and your brother-in-law was tired from work, and he couldn't have no oil and water in his stomach. ”
Qiaojuan is a good person at life, and she has already calculated what to eat at night. "Sticking cakes and stewing sauerkraut, it's enough to eat."
Big bones stewed with sauerkraut, that is a rare good meal, Qiaolian naturally has nothing else to say.
My sister's family is doing well, and it is by no means a swollen face and a fat person, so Qiaolian is relieved. Anyway, as long as you don't make dumplings and big fish and meat every day, if that's the case, you really can't live.
"Okay, listen to my sister, then I'll help my sister light the fire, let's do it together."
Qiaolian also went to the ground, washed her hands and worked with Qiaojuan to take out a few sauerkraut from the sauerkraut jar, and after cleaning it, she began to cut the sauerkraut.
"Okay, this knife is good, the sauerkraut is cut so finely, I don't have the patience to bother, I can't cut it so finely.
You cut the sauerkraut, I'll go and stew the bones, and the pot will stick to the cake later. ”
Qiaojuan glanced at the sauerkraut cut by her sister, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up, her sister is really a pair of scissors on the kang and a shovel on the pot, no, anything.
While talking, the two sisters divided the labor, one cut the sauerkraut and the other stewed the bones, waiting for the big bones in the pot to stew out the fragrance, and Qiaolian's four or five cabbages were also cut out.
Northerners cook in winter, they love to cook more, and if they can't eat one meal, they can keep the next meal hot and hot, which saves trouble. Qiaojuan stewed a lot of big bones, and there was less waste of sauerkraut.
Qiaolian washed the sauerkraut and was about to put it in the pot when she heard someone talking outside, "Big sister, what are you going to eat tonight?" Smell the fragrance from afar?
Our mother is worried about the second sister, isn't this? Let's come over to find the second sister to chat. As soon as I heard this voice, I knew that it was Chen Minsheng's daughter-in-law, Wang.
As soon as Qiao Lian heard the movement, her face was difficult to look at.
If you don't come early or late, you just catch up with the food here and it's about to be ready, where is this to find her to chat, this is obviously to rub the rice.
