Chapter 416： This mother is different!

Chapter 416: This mother is different!

After chatting and joking for a while, Li Zhensheng urged, "Mom, you and your sister-in-law should take Fu Niu'er home. I'm keeping an eye on you here. My brother-in-law and sister are also very tired recently. They have a rest these days and are thinking about new dishes."

“The guests who have reserved the table have no taboos, but they especially like to eat duck. Let me see if I can think of some different ways to eat it?”

"Duck?" Several ways of eating it quickly flashed through Tao Hongying's mind. They were just soup or stew, which was not really novel, so she frowned slightly.

Jiayin gave my mother a big kiss and blinked her big eyes hard to send a signal to her.

When it comes to eating ducks, Kyoto in the previous life was one of the best. There is no reason why he would not be popular in Kyoto when he got Tianwu.

So, I don’t need to worry about this matter, her almighty daughter has already sharpened her sword to attack the duck!

Tao Hongying saw that her daughter's eyes were about to blink and cramped, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, let your eyes rest quickly, mother knows."

After saying that, she explained a few more chores about the kitchen, then hugged her daughter and took her mother-in-law home.

The village chief, accompanied by Li Laoer, walked around the front hall and back kitchen twice, looking very satisfied.

On the carriage back, he discussed with Li Laoer, "When the boys in the village study for another two years, if they are not good at studying and don't want to go out to work, can we send them to work in Mr. Da's restaurant?"

“You don’t need to pay all the money, just come here to broaden your horizons, meet more people, and improve your skills.”

“Of course it’s done,” Li Laoer immediately agreed for his eldest brother, “Whoever you use as a clerk has to do the work, and our own children, who can write and do calculations, are much more reliable than outsiders.”

The village chief beamed when he heard this, "That's right, that's right. When I get back, I'll let the children study hard."

Chatting and laughing all the way, we soon arrived in the village.

I have to say that there is strength in numbers. It has only been a few days, but Li Yong’s new house is about to be built.

The villagers are willing to contribute their efforts, and Li Yong is also willing to spend money to provide two meals a day at noon and evening. Every meal is meat, and everyone who eats it feels distressed.

But Li Yong and Hui Niang said that if you don’t have enough to eat, you won’t have strength, so you must have meat!

Everyone had no choice but to eat every meal to their heart's content, and they didn't waste any energy on their work.

Everyone in the Li family was also worried. Mrs. Li didn't even enter the house. She carried her granddaughter on her back and went to the construction site to check on the progress. She also went to the Liu house to see the three little ones.

Tao Hongying also rolled up her sleeves and went to the village chief's house to help Huiniang cook.

Huiniang lost a lot of weight, lost the fatness she had during confinement, and became a lot darker, but her complexion was very good and her eyes were bright.

Obviously, she is full of hope for her new home and the days to come, and she doesn’t care how tired or hard it is!

In the evening, the Li family had to cook, but Madam Hui was the first to deliver the food. Uncle Zhao and other old men also ate at their house.

Everyone in the Li family worked hard all day without delay. They ate the ready-made meals and went to bed hastily.

Jiayin used the excuse that he missed his mother, so he held it close to her chest and went back to the wing together.

As a result, Tao Hongying turned around and washed her face, there was a pile of recipes on the kang, and a fat girl pointing her fingers, giggling and pretending to be well-behaved...

She still didn't understand something, so she held her daughter in her arms and kissed her again and again.

“My dear, blessed girl, I will do a good job in making private dishes, earn you a lot of money, and save a lot of dowry!”

Jiayin put her arms around her mother's neck, nuzzled it like a kitten, inhaled the faint scent of soap on her mother's body, and then yawned loudly.

Tao Hongying patted her daughter's back gently again and again. When she heard that her daughter was asleep, she put her on the soft mattress and carefully took off her clothes.

The fat girl, her arms and legs are like sacred festivals. Even if they are asleep, the small mouth still moves a few times from time to time. I don't know if she dreamed of what good things were.

It’s so cute, you can’t help but melt your heart just by looking at it.

Tao Hongying lowered her head and gently kissed her daughter’s little hand.

Sometimes, she herself can't believe that she can actually give birth to such a good child, filial, sensible, smart and cute, just like a little fairy dropped from the sky to the earth!

Others may be unhappy that their children are naughty, but she just wants her children to be naughty. Because this child is coquettish, gluttonous, and troublesome, she can make her feel that this is a real child and a piece of her heart.

“Go to sleep, my little girl.”

Tao Hongying pulled the small mattress her daughter was sleeping on to her side, and then put all the recipes on the table, ready to copy them again.

Although she would not show this recipe to anyone, she always wanted it just in case. She didn’t want her daughter to be in any danger.

Must make a new copy in her handwriting. Even if something happens, it will fall on her.

Just like that, she was copying while watching over the sleeping fat girl.

The light of the oil lamp cast her shadow on the window lattice, making her look unusually tall and solid...

It is another dusk. Compared with before, the evening wind is much cooler, and it is also sending a message to everyone.

That means winter is coming soon!

Every household has cut firewood and stored trivial supplies, just waiting for the first snow to arrive quietly.

In the Li family courtyard, the old lady took Grandma He and Shui Yun to lay out all the winter clothes.

Uncle Zhao and several other old men, family members, and even Li Yong, Huiniang, and Longfengtai had spread out a large kang.

These are the cotton-padded clothes of Jiaren and the other boys. They have been sent away, otherwise there would be a pile on the kang.

The old lady was holding a half-bald feather duster in her hand. After beating it one by one, she felt that her cotton clothes and pants were getting looser, so she stopped.

Jiayin had just changed into her washing coat and trousers, and now she was holding her feet and rolling around on the bed.

The old lady saw it funny and pretended to beat her with a feather duster. This caused the good news to come rolling in more and more, and she gave everyone a live show of "get out!"

Grandma He and Shuiyun laughed loudly. From time to time, they shook their cotton coats, lifted up their cotton trousers, and moved their hands to help Jiayin's "egg" to avoid grandma's feather duster, and continued to make trouble.

Just when they were laughing, Tao Hongying rushed into the house with a happy face and shouted, "Mom, it's roasted, the duck is roasted!"

Before the old lady could respond, the good news rushed straight into my mother’s arms. She shouted with a smile, “Mom, eat roast duck, Fu Niuer wants to eat roast duck!”

The old lady also laughed, "Come on, let's have a taste! This fragrance has been lingering all afternoon, let alone Fu Niuer, my saliva has become a river!"

Tao Hongying quickly hugged her daughter and led her mother-in-law out.

A new oven was built in the corner of the yard yesterday. Because I was short on time, I didn’t lay out the adobe bricks, so I just got the green bricks from Li Yong’s house.

Actually, it is not accurate to say that it is an oven. It should be said that it is a large stuffy pot with a bottom for burning charcoal and an opening at the top.

Three fat ducks just hung on the edge of the jar, their roasted skin brown and sizzling with oil.

The charcoal fire below has a little residual red color, and when it meets the dripping grease, it turns into blue smoke, curling up, and the aroma of meat becomes stronger.

Tao Hongying carefully hooked up a roast duck and said excitedly, "The duck was very burnt in the morning, so I removed most of the charcoal fire this time and kept it simmering for two hours."

As she spoke, she put the roast duck on the tray and carried it back to the main room.

Everyone gathered around, sniffing the increasingly rich aroma and swallowing secretly.

Tao Hongying endured the heat and first pulled off a duck leg and gave it to her mother-in-law.

The old lady smiled and only bit a little bit, and then gave it to her granddaughter as a show.
