C169

Aunt Xiao is the chef of the dishes tonight. Seeing that they praised her for her good cooking skills, she could not help laughing and greeting her with more enthusiasm:

"then you should eat more. If you have any suggestions on the dishes, you can just put forward them, so that my cooking skills will be better and better."

"Oh, I can't see that Aunt Xiao is quite demanding of herself." There are village folk music.

"You'll laugh at my old lady. I'm idle at home every day. That's what I'm after." Aunt Xiao's modesty made people look more.

Several villagers are eating vegetables, drinking rice wine, chatting, occasionally looking at Aunt Xiao's spirit. It's really good. Maybe the living conditions at home are better, and the red light is full of purpose. It's much younger than before.

495. Cooking is learned

"aunt Xiao, it's not my nonsense. You've been getting younger and younger in the past two years. It's a good maintenance." It was Wang Daogu who said this.

The Xiao family used to be so poor that sometimes they begged for help to borrow some rice and some baskets of sesame seeds.

Aunt Xiao is a woman. She lost her husband early. It's not easy to bring up her two children by herself.

"This rice can talk. I'm over forty years old. Ha ha." Aunt Xiao was so happy that she couldn't take care of the food.

Liu Shan, however, began to smile with profound meaning and said: "Yiming, sister-in-law, I don't mean you. You two love each other like honey all day. It's time to think about Aunt Xiao.

She has worked hard all her life for you two brothers. Now that you two brothers have their own families and children, it's time to consider the happiness of your mother. "

The village head took a few mouthfuls of food, pondered for a moment, and agreed: "Liu Shan's words are true. Aunt Xiao, our village is not an ancient village, but also very open-minded. Don't you want to find an old wife? After all, the two children are old, and only a wife can accompany them to old age. "

This full moon wine has become aunt Xiao's home court. She blushes with shame. "Why do you always make fun of my old lady? I'm so old. I'm not ashamed to say that."

Aunt Xiao didn't expect that these people were so direct that she was in a trance.

The memory of Xianggong died more than ten years, even his voice and appearance has been blurred, these years, although she worked hard, but never thought of second marriage.

When I was young, I was afraid that the new mother-in-law would be bad for the two children. Now that I am old, I don't think about it. That would be very funny.

Aware of aunt Xiao's embarrassment, Luo Manman immediately points to Li Xin and says:

"Li Xin, there is not enough soup on the table. Go to the kitchen and serve another bowl of chicken soup. You can also serve some cold dishes."

The village head looks at Luo Manman with a smile but no words. The child is really a smart daughter-in-law.

However, Luo Manman is concerned about it. If the villagers didn't mention it at night, she would have neglected it.

If there is a suitable person, of course, she supports her mother-in-law. If necessary, she will help to find a candidate.

Looking at the village head as if he had a way, maybe he could help introduce him. Thinking of this, Luo Manman took the initiative to serve a bowl of soup for several villagers and said:

"come and drink the chicken soup to raise your stomach. Aunt Xiao stewed the old hen all afternoon and put a lot of herbs in it, which has the effect of nourishing the body."

"Yes, aunt Xiao will keep fit. Come on, let's have a good meal after the chicken soup." Several villagers have a big appetite and begin to sweep the table of food.

And Luo Manman also generously explained to them how to match these dishes for nutrition and how to cook them for better taste.

Her eloquence was excellent, her voice was clear, her movements were easy, and she won their praise.

"Xiao's daughter-in-law really has a certain research on food, which is very reasonable and admirable." The village head boasted.

"I only know how to match dishes. Aunt Xiao and Li Xin are the best in the kitchen, ha ha." Luo Man chuckles.

"Xiao's daughter-in-law said well. We should pay attention to the balance of food when we cook. I remember my mother-in-law cooked kelp and pig blood soup last time. I had a stomachache all day." Wang Daogu also has deep experience.

"I didn't expect there was so much knowledge in cooking. We've got a lot of experience."

"Xiao's daughter-in-law really knows a lot. Where do you think this knowledge comes from?" The village head asked curiously.

"From the book, ha ha." Luo Manman is a bit embarrassed. It's too much publicity and easy to show her feet. As a modern man, many of them are common sense.

"That's good. I can't see that Xiao's daughter-in-law can still read. Unlike us, we don't know a basket of words when we are old."

Some villagers lament that sometimes the vegetables he grows at home are sold in the town because he is illiterate.

"Literacy is something every villager should know. Xiao's, I'm planning to build a school in the village this year? Many villages with good conditions have been built long ago. Our village can't be left behind and let the children suffer great losses in the future. "

As soon as the village head proposed, everyone immediately agreed."Ah, it's a good thing to build a school. After that, my Yadan won't have to go all the way to the school in the town every day." Liu Shan looks happy.

"This is good. I believe no one will object to it. The village head needs our help at that time. Just say so." Wang Daogu rubbed his hands and said excitedly.

"Well, our Xiao family naturally give full support, and the cost of running the school is very high."

Xiao Yiming is also a little excited. Since the head of the village has taken the initiative, he will not steal the limelight. He and his daughter-in-law are in the process of planning this matter, and it is most appropriate for the head of the village to put forward it.

"Well, you have made a great contribution to the village. I thank the Xiao family for the children and the villagers." When the village head saw that his proposal was approved by the public, he took a sip of rice wine excitedly.

He has been thinking about this idea for several months, but no one else can do it alone.

The cost of running a school is at least 100 Liang, because if we want to build a school district, we have to buy desks and chairs, and we have to invite teachers. Which one is free?

He originally wanted to ask the Xiao family to help, but naiyu's amount was too large to ask. Unexpectedly, the Xiao family agreed so naturally.

"Village head, how much does it cost to run a school?" Xiao Yiming asked.

"It's about one hundred taels to build a school house. Plus the desks, chairs, doors and windows, we have to invite teachers to build a school. It's estimated that one hundred and fifty taels is enough."

"It's a large sum of money, but the school's tables and chairs can be made by several carpenters themselves. I'm not busy these days, and I can also help to order some tables and chairs."

Xiao Yiming's biggest regret is that he has no chance to study hard in his life. He just follows his daughter-in-law and Li in charge of affairs and knows a few words.

"Village head, Yiming, have you all forgotten? The Xiao family can give us eighty liang of silver, and we can collect the rest. " Luo Man Man is playing with the small hand of the small Ruirui meat whirring, proposing a way.

"Yes, the proposal of Xiao's daughter-in-law is good. Last time there was an old sick mother in our village, she collected the medicine money only a few days by means of fund-raising?

There are so many people who have great strength. All the children in our village have to go to school. Can they not pay for it? " Wang Daogu just finished clapping the table.

See Liu Shan excited clap thigh: "yes, the family more children to donate out, after all, children are to go to school."

"OK, that's settled. I'll arrange it tomorrow. Xiao family, you have made a lot of contributions to the village. I thank you for the villagers.

I have to report this to the town to record the merits of your Xiao family. " The head of the village was beaming with joy.

"Thank you, village head." Xiao Yiming was surprised and said that there are many advantages in recording merits and virtues.

In the future, if Xiao Ruirui goes to school to get an official title in the imperial examination, this is a bonus. It's very useful.

What's more, if the Xiao family has committed anything, they will be given a lighter punishment if they have a record of merits and virtues. In short, the more merits and virtues, the better.

After dinner for nearly an hour, the villagers talked about many topics. When the banquet was over and the Xiao family cleaned up the dishes, it was late at night.

The Xiao family, who have been tired all day, are going to go back to their bedroom to have a rest.

Leng Yunfei went back to the house early. Looking at Xiao Yiming's busy going in and out with a wooden basin, he asked, "Yiming, let's have a rest early. We'll clean up the mess in the house tomorrow."

The elder brother-in-law seldom treats him kindly. With a smile on his face, he is somewhat unnatural: "OK, I'll go to bed now. How many days will the elder brother-in-law stay at home? I want my mother to buy more vegetables? "

Seeing that Xiao Yiming was so attentive, he couldn't bear to be disappointed: "the Yamen is not busy these days. I'll stay at home for a few more days, and then take my sister to visit my aunt's house."

"OK, my daughter-in-law and I will be ready then." Xiao Yiming responded.

"Well, let's have a rest early." With that, Leng Yunfei passes by the door of Xiao Yiming's bedroom and takes a look at Luo Manman lying in the pit. He pushes open the door of his bedroom and goes in to lie in the pit to have a rest.

When Xiao Yiming returns to his room, he looks at Luo Manman just feeding her. He puts the sleeping little ruiruirui in the cradle and lies down in the pit for a while.

"Daughter in law, are you tired?" Xiao Yiming takes off his clothes and climbs to the pit. Looking at Luo Man Man's face, he asks.

Luo Man man didn't know the meaning of his words, and didn't see the wolf light flashing under his eyes. He said casually, "it's OK."

What's she tired of? She's the least busy at home.

As soon as he heard his daughter-in-law say this, Xiao Yiming immediately released the flame in his heart. He kisses the delicate lips, unties her clothes with three or two skillful hands, and begins to be busy.

Xiao Yiming is not good at this kind of thing now. He has been patient for several months, and finally he can't wait until Luo Manman comes out of the month.

"Yiming, don't make trouble. Go to bed early. The child just fell asleep. Don't disturb him."

Luo Man man looked at the baby sleeping sweetly in the cradle. In the air, the room was filled with milk fragrance, which was very warm.

"Daughter in law, I protest. Since you have little Ruirui, you obviously don't love me before." Xiao Yiming is busy complaining.
