Chapter 34 The benefits of hugging your thighs

Old Mrs. Li said quickly when she saw it.

"Jiahuan, I will follow your fourth aunt to help tomorrow night. And Yuru, you will go too. They have paid so much, so we should do more work."

Jia Huan nodded repeatedly, and Zhao Yuru also responded, "Okay, mom, don't worry, we won't be lazy."

“Mom! I want to go too, I can also help Hongying cook!”

Wu Cuihua finished the rice in the bowl in a few mouthfuls, and hurriedly approached Mrs. Li, shouting that she wanted to come with her.

It was a wedding banquet, and we were entertaining distinguished guests, so there must be a lot of delicious food.

When the time comes to sit in the kitchen, you can eat as much as you want.

Besides, there are three daughters-in-law in the family, and two of them have gone to the Kong family. She is not willing to be left to work at home by herself.

How could Mrs. Li not see through her inner thoughts? She refused with a cold face.

"No, you don't do any work in the kitchen on weekdays. What are you going to do? Are you eating for free? Just stay at home and let me know that you are following me secretly, which will embarrass you and break your legs!"

Wu Cuihua's face looked like a frost-beaten eggplant after being scolded. She still wanted to make trouble, but Li Laoer had already stared at her.

“Mom is right, just work at home honestly.”

“Yes, Second Sister-in-law, I haven’t turned over the sauce cubes that were dried at home yesterday. You will be at home the day after tomorrow to look at them and turn them over.”

Zhao Yuru was soft-hearted and didn't want Wu Cuihua to make the house quiet, so she quickly arranged the easiest job for her.

It's a pity that Wu Cuihua doesn't appreciate it and thinks everyone is bullying her.

Her face turned red with anger, she grabbed a big white pear from the basket on the kang, turned around and ran away without a trace.

Jiayin was lying next to the basket and was almost hit by the basket. She was so angry that she waved her fists wildly. This second aunt is really disgusting!

Mrs. Li quickly picked up her granddaughter and checked her carefully before feeling relieved.

Li Laoer also felt that his bad mother-in-law was too embarrassed, and he couldn't let her be upset anymore because of the anger in his stomach, so he could only bow his head and eat.

That night, after washing up, he returned to the south room with a dark face.

Wu Cuihua got into bed early, and when she heard Li Laoer's movement, she turned around and looked at him.

"Second brother, look at the fourth brother and his wife. They are both hunting and making banquets. Jian Tian'er is doing a good job in front of my mother. They are squeezing us and the third house to death. You should think of a way! Didn’t you say you want to go to the city to find an errand? Go quickly?”

Wu Cuihua saw that Li Laoer was silent, so she thought he had listened and continued to encourage her.

"If you can make money in the city, we can straighten our backs at home and avoid looking at their faces..."

"Okay, go to sleep. Shut your stinky mouth from now on. If you make me angry again, I won't care about you."

Li Laoer was impatient, scolded him, turned around and fell asleep.

Wu Cuihua was so angry that she groaned, but she really didn't dare to offend him. After a while, she actually fell asleep and snored.

In the dark night, Li Laoer's eyes were very bright. He really wanted to go to the city to find a job.

But in order to support my son’s education and to honor my mother, it’s not because of what Wu Cuihua said.

The three brothers are equal in honor and disgrace, and there is no need to look down upon them at all.



After lunch on the second day, Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru finished almost all the work at home and set off.

Mrs. Li wanted to stay at Kong's house that night, so she wanted to keep her granddaughter at home. After all, it was inconvenient to do anything outside.

But Jiayin didn't want to, it was her first time seeing a wedding, how could she miss the excitement.

So she tugged on her mother's skirt and refused to let go.

Mrs. Li loved her as much as her heart, so of course she was reluctant to let her go. In the end, she had no choice but to let her follow her. Then he picked up another Li Laosi and followed him to continue seeing his daughter...

Jiayin grinned at Mrs. Li, tried her best to wave her little hands goodbye, and giggled excitedly.

Then he lay on his father's back, obediently and like an honest child, which made Mrs. Li dumbfounded.

Sometimes, she really felt that this little granddaughter was so smart that she didn't look like a child at all.

But she only thought about this secretly to herself and could not tell anyone.

Don’t worry about your granddaughter, she is a fool and a child of the Li family.

What’s more, he’s too smart, which is a good thing!

Yes, great thing!

Not to mention that Mrs. Li was doing some psychological construction for herself, she only said that Tao Hongying and other four children, including a large family and a small family, came to the Kong family again.

Mrs. Kong was very happy when she saw this. The salary of two taels of silver and four people coming to work was a great deal.

Tao Hongying took stock of the ingredients and seasonings and immediately started washing and preparing vegetables.

In addition, we have to start heating up the pot, because the Kong family will entertain relatives and friends who have arrived in advance tonight, so they have to prepare two tables first.

Mrs. Kong sent her three women and two maids to help. The five of them were not lazy, and there was no quarrel when they worked together.

After a busy afternoon, at dusk, relatives and friends of the Kong family got a taste of Tao Hongying's craftsmanship in advance.

Tao Hongying put the pig's head and knuckles that needed to be cooked overnight into the pot, pressed the firewood, took a hasty meal, and then went to rest.

The Kong family prepared a side room for the Li family, with a large fire bed, big enough to sleep the whole family.

This is the sister-in-law's brother-in-law's nephew's. It was a bit embarrassing, but Jiayin later helped solve the problem.

The little fat girl slept in the middle, with Tao Hongying and Li Yuru on the left, and Li Laosi and Jia Huan on the right. The boundaries were clear and extremely harmonious.

At night, Mr. Li got up and went to the stove to add firewood twice.

At dawn, Tao Hongying and others also got up.

Jiayin was still sleeping, so Li Laosi watched over his daughter while catching up on her sleep.

When the Kong family got up, Tao Hongying and others had been busy in the kitchen for a long time.

The wontons stuffed with pork and green onions and the soup made from pork bones were very delicious, and the Kong family was even more satisfied with them.

Jiayin woke up from peeing, and when she didn't see her mother, she cried out a few times. Li Laosi hurriedly peed his daughter, and then took her to find her daughter-in-law to breastfeed.

It happened that Mrs. Kong was talking in the kitchen, and when she saw Jiayin, she was white and fat, and her big eyes followed everyone's figures.

She doesn’t cry or make trouble, and she is very happy in red clothes.

She thought that her son would get married, and it would be good to have such a granddaughter for her first child, so she liked the good news even more.

Not only did he take the initiative to hug me for a while, but he also gave me a purse containing two small silver peanuts.

Jiayin, a little money-lover, was of course happy. She danced with joy and tried her best to kiss Mrs. Kong’s face a lot.

Mrs. Kong couldn't stop laughing, and then ordered her mother-in-law to find a lot of clothes and bedding from her daughter's childhood, as well as a newly sewn cloth tiger.

Tao Hongying couldn't refuse, but seeing her daughter's eyes shining, she had no choice but to accept the offer, and even more carefully prepared a banquet for the Kong family.

The Kong family is generous and has all the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar available, and they are not stingy about limiting the dosage. It is a rare opportunity for Tao Hongying to show off her skills.

Stir-fry, stir-fry, stew when it’s time to braise, and deep-fry when it’s time to fry.

The aroma quickly filled the entire kitchen and spread far outside the door, making the guests who came to the banquet secretly salivate.
