Chapter 78: Su Mu gives a gift
Xiangling took out the mountain red that Lin Yue had forced into her from the basket, picked one up and took a bite, and suddenly her little face wrinkled together, this taste, as Lin Yue said, fell out of her teeth in one bite.
Xiangling went into the house and took out the sugar, put it in the clay pot, put water again, threw the washed mountain red in it, and boiled it over a small fire.
It was almost boiled, poured into a small basin, Jiang Shi tasted a small bite, felt that the sweet and sour was quite delicious, filled a small bowl and said: "What I said just now seems to be a little heavy, I'll take some to coax you Aunt He." ”
Good guy, just after coming back for a while, the Jiang family ran back to the He family, no wonder the villagers spread that the Jiang family and the He family are like a person, and no wonder Qin Keer has a sense of crisis, the key is that Xiangling's "family and friend group" is too huge, and even the He family is rushing to develop her into a daughter-in-law.
Xiao Xianglian was already suffocated at home every day, and when she heard that Jiang was leaving, she chased her out with her little short legs, and He happily took Xiao Xianglian and took the newly out of the pot of red cans in the mountains to coax He.
...
Jiang took the mountain red cans made by Xiangling and returned to He's house again, but He was still stunned in the yard, like a clay sculpture.
Jiang handed the red canned food in the mountains to He and said, "Chunmei, what I just said is serious, don't take it to heart." How can mother and son have an overnight feud? This is delicious made by Xiangling, sweet and sour, you send it to He Fang and He Hua'er. ”
He Shi didn't get angry, but he felt that it was not a taste of sourness in his heart, and finally sighed: "Although what you said is not good to hear, I can't find a reason to refute you, maybe being a mother is biased." ”
He didn't think much about it anymore, moved his nose, smelled the red cans in the mountains, and said with a melancholy face: "Xiangling, this girl is so good, it's a pity ......."
Jiang knew that He was going to talk about the topic of "daughter-in-law" again, so he hurriedly shook his head and said: "You can stop, if you really like our family Xiangling, I, the mother, will give in and divide half of your daughter, right?" ”
He's eyes lit up and he smiled: "This is what you said, you are not allowed to go back!" ”
When He said this, Jiang basically confirmed that He had given up the idea of forcing He Fang to marry Xiangling, and he did not have a knot because he couldn't get married, so Jiang got up happily and said goodbye, remembering Xiangling's words last night, and said to He: "Xiangling's right eyelid has been jumping for the past two days, I'm afraid that something bad will happen, so don't go out alone recently from your family." ”
He Shi was surprised with an "oh": "If you don't say it, He Hua really plans to go to her aunt's house to play in the past two days, this kind of thing would rather be believed than not believed, and the whole family will go together after the autumn harvest." ”
He was a small trumpet, and after a while, he told the news to a few good women, and they all confined their daughters at home and didn't let them go out.
...
Xiangling touched the watercress dried in the basket and found that it was dry, so she put the dried peppers on the cutting board and chopped them, chopped them into minced pieces, and then began to chop the wild garlic.
Just as he was chopping happily, a carriage galloped outside the door, someone got out of the car, and Tuk Tuk knocked on the courtyard door.
Xiangling went to open the door and found that it was Su Xiaoman and her brother Su Mu standing outside the door.
Xiangling said happily: "The kang is ready?" How did you deliver it yourself? ”
Su Xiaoman said with a smile: "You are the first customer of our sheep felt, my brother is itchy and embarrassed to come, I, who is a sister, had to take the initiative to bring him." ”
Xiangling wanted to let the brother and sister into the house, and thought that there was only one room in her house, Chu Xia's legs and feet were not dexterous, and she said abruptly: "I'm sorry, there is only one room in the house, it's really a little squeezed, I chopped the pepper with my hands, went into the house to wash the handles, let's take the things to the new house to try the size." ”
Xiangling went into the house to wash her hands, and when she came out, she found Su Mu supporting Su Xiaoman in a panic, Su Xiaoman raised her head and burst into tears.
Frightened, Xiangling hurriedly supported Su Xiaoman, and said hurriedly: "What's wrong with you?" ”
Su Xiaoman said with a look of annoyance: "I just wanted to see what you were doing with so many chili peppers, but I didn't expect spicy eyes." ”
The water basin was still on the kang in the house, Xiangling was busy pulling Su Xiaoman into the house, and was just about to pick up the water in the basin to clean, when she suddenly remembered that this basin of water had just washed her hands, and her own hands were chopped with a lot of chili peppers and garlic, and washing her eyes with this water would only be more spicy.
Xiangling hurriedly said to Chu Xia: "Brother, hand me the clay pot." ”
Yu Xia hurriedly handed the clay pot at hand to Xiangling, and looked curiously at this rich girl, but "tears".
Xiangling took the clay pot and said to Su Xiaoman: "I touched the chili pepper with my hand, I will pour water for you, and you rinse your eyes with your hand." ”
Su Xiaoman nodded, put her hand on the top of the basin, poured water from Xiangling, she washed her eyes with water with both hands, her eyes were finally much more comfortable, she felt that someone in front of her handed her a towel, and she reached out dimly to take it and wiped the water on her face.
Trying to open his eyes, a man wearing only a middle coat on his upper body and a quilt on his lower body suddenly came into view, so frightened that Su Xiaoman hurriedly turned around, his face crimson.
Xiangling hurriedly explained: "It's a matter of urgency, Miss Su doesn't mind, this is my brother, recuperate on the kang, it's fine for a hundred days." ”
"Full 100 days?" Su Xiaoman was amused by Xiangling's words, and thought that recuperating from illness was not giving birth to a child, and it was "a hundred days"? Feeling that it was really inappropriate for him to laugh, he shook his little face and said, "It's okay, I am the daughter of the Shangjia family, and I won't be as childish as the official lady." ”
It's not a little childish, and it's really inappropriate to look at it again, Su Xiaoman stepped out of the room, Xiangling smiled: "Miss Su, put down my brother's towel." ”
Su Xiaoman's little face turned red as a shrimp, handed it back to Chu Xia in a panic, and fled from the house in a panic.
.
The little second brother who drove the car helped Xiangling move things into the new house, and diligently helped hang the curtain and spread the kang quilt, which was just right.
Don't look at it as just a small decoration, but the house immediately adds a lot of color, and it looks very homely.
The little second brother finally opened a huge burden.
Inside are two sets of brand-new cotton mattresses, the quilt is very festive, one quilt is a red-bottomed mandarin duck silk surface, and the other quilt is a green-bottomed mandarin duck silk surface, just a pair.
Xiangling knew that this was one of the dowries for the marriage of a daughter with a good family background, two or four sets of luggage.
Su Xiaoman smiled: "Haven't you always wanted to make new quilts with new cotton?" My family's new cotton arrived, and I made you two new sets of ready-made bedding. ”
Xiangling happily touched the quilt, it was really soft, Xiangling decided, whether Jiang agreed or not, she would move over today and sleep comfortably.
Xiangling said with a smile: "Miss Su is too thoughtful, lest I run again, how much is the total, I will go home and get the silver for you." ”
Su Xiaoman waved his hand and said, "No, no, this is what I gave you, congratulations on the housewarming." ”
Xiangling frowned, looked at Su Xiaoman and said, "Miss Su, we are just two sides, this gift is too expensive, right?" I'm a person who doesn't like to turn the back corner, and I like to open the skylight and say bright things. ”
Su Xiaoman opened her mouth to say something but didn't say it, and looked at her brother Su Mu embarrassedly.
Su Mu's face was also embarrassed, he didn't expect Xiangling to get straight to the point.
Su Mu had no choice but to bite the bullet and say to Xiangling: "Since Miss Chu wants to make her words clear, I will tell the truth,"
"Yesterday, I heard that Xiaomei and Miss Chu were rescued by Yang Preparatory in Xiangjia Buzhuang. Now the military camp is looking for a cloth village to cooperate in making winter clothes, and I want Miss Chu to help introduce Yang to organize. ”
Xiangling was stunned, but she didn't expect the other party to let her beg Yang Qingyue, she and Yang Qingyue seemed to have only met a few times, and every time they met, they didn't seem to be very friendly.
Xiangling shook her head decisively and said: "I'm sorry, you may have misunderstood the relationship between me and Yang Preparation, I and him, just like me and you, although we know each other, we are not familiar with each other." ”
Xiangling's pun showed her and Yang Qingyue, and also showed her relationship with the Su family, and the faces of the Su family brothers and sisters suddenly turned red into pig liver.
Xiangling refolded the quilt and wanted to return it to the Su family.
Su Xiaoman hurriedly pressed Xiangling's hand, and said with a look of shame: "Xiangling, you saved me in Xiangjia Cloth Village, and helped me come up with ideas and deal with bad dyed cloth, you can receive this gift." ”
Afraid that Xiangling would return the quilt, Su Xiaoman hurriedly pulled Su Mu and ran out, and when Xiangling chased him out, the person was gone.
This gift can't be returned, and this favor can only be repaid in other ways.
