Chapter 160 Greedy and causing trouble

The weather is getting colder, and the marriage of Mr. Xu is basically arranged. Mrs. Xu is not at home every day and doesn't know what she is doing outside.

Old Xu walked around the new house with his hands behind his back that day. When he came back, some eyebrows were not eyebrows, and his eyes were not eyes.

"Didn't I ask you to buy everything that should be done in the new house? I just took a look. Why is it still the same as last month?" Old man Xu shouted at Mrs. Xu.

"What are you shouting!" Mrs. Xu came out of the kitchen and said, "It's going to be the Spring Festival. Everything is sold very expensive. After the fifth day of the lunar new year, the price will definitely fall. It's not the same to buy it at that time. You can buy a few more things."

When old man Xu heard this, he felt reasonable, but he still said with some dissatisfaction, "So you haven't been at home every day recently, and you can't see anyone until you don't eat. You are busy. Are you the county magistrate?"

"There is no work at home now. I go everywhere to talk to the old sisters. What's wrong, no?" Mrs. Xu was guilty, but her voice was high and she pretended to be very righteous.

"Oi, okay, do whatever you like to do." In the twelfth lunar month, old man Xu didn't want to quarrel with her. He knocked on cigarette bags and went into the house to rub the tobacco leaves.

Mrs Xu was relieved. She turned around and saw Xu Lingzi looking at herself at the door of the stove. She stared and scolded, "Why don't you cook quickly? Just like you, when you go out, you won't let your mother-in-law scold you to death!"

When Xu Lingzi saw her saying this, her cheeks turned red with anger, took off her apron and fell on the wooden pier, and turned back to the house.

Old Mrs. Xu jumped angrily in the yard and scolded, "Little girl, how dare you throw something and stare at me? I peed and pulled you so big, just gave birth to such an enemy as you and made you angry with me?"

Xu Lingzi sat in the room and listened to Mrs. Xu scolding outside. She was angry and aggrieved, and couldn't help blushing her eyes.

Xu Laosi was coming back from the outside. Before he walked to the door, he heard the scolding. He quickly walked into the yard and pulled Mrs. Xu and said, "Mom, what are you doing? Lingzi is still an unfable girl. You are scolding her here as a mother. Do you want to be a human being? How can you say kiss in the future?"

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she stopped, picked up her apron, shook it, and went back to the kitchen to cook angrily.

Xu Laosi got into the room and saw that Xu Lingzi was wiping tears in the inner room. He quickly went over and said, "Don't cry. Let's go to the third brother's house for dinner."

"What are you doing at the third brother's house? His family has several mouths waiting for dinner. It's tight enough." Xu Lingzi wiped her tears and saw Xu Laosi's snow. She grabbed the broom to help him beat him.

Then he lowered his head and saw that his leggings and cotton shoes were also covered with snow. He squatted down and touched it, and it was already frozen. He was so angry that he fell off his broom and pulled his back and said, "Where is it going on a snowy day? Are cotton trousers and shoes soaked? I don't know if it's cold? Why don't you take it off quickly and put it on the warm!"

"Go to the third brother's house and talk about it!" Xu Laoshi pulled the cotton-padded clothes and forced Xu Lingzi to put them on. Then he took her out of the door and shouted at the kitchen, "Mom, Lingzi and I will go to the third brother's house for dinner. You can eat by yourselves!"

When Mrs. Xu followed the sound, the two had already left, and they were even more angry. They said, "Go to his house to eat something and nibble on the nest!"

Xu Lingzi was pulled all the way by Xu Laosi and walked with a deep and shallow foot.

"Today, the third brother and I went up the mountain and set up a rabbit. The third brother also touched a nest of rabbits. The male rabbit hurt his leg and couldn't feed it. The third brother said that he slaughtered meat tonight, and the little rabbit let apricots to play."

While talking, two people arrived and entered the room to see Ye busy working in the kitchen.

"Lao Si, hurry into the room and go to the warm kang with your brother. On such a cold day, you two are really good."

While Ye said and cleaning up the rabbit, Xu Lingzi quickly rolled up her sleeves to help.

"Don't touch your hands." Ye pushed her away with his elbow, "It made her bloody."

"Sister, come in and see the rabbit!" Taoer leaned out from behind the curtain of the west room and reached out to greet Xu Lingzi.

"Go into the house and play with them!" Ye also chased her into the house.

Xu Xinger came out of the room with a bowl. She just fed the two small ones with rice paste. Today, Xu Laosan came back more than usual. The adult's meal time could be pushed back, but the two small ones couldn't stand hunger, so they fed them first.

"Auntie, you go in and help the child, and I'll help my mother." Xu Xinger put down the bowl and chopsticks, pushed Xu Lingzi into the room, turned around and asked Ye, "Mom, how are you going to make rabbit meat?"

"What to do? Just stew it and eat it. What else can you do? Ye's cooking skills are not bad, but the limitations are still relatively large.

Xu Xinger didn't ask at all. When she cleaned up the rabbit, she directly took off the rabbit and took off eight pieces first.

Separate the head, legs, ribs and other places, shave off the meat on the chest, throw the head, neck, sternum and other places into the pot to cook soup, cut the ribs and prepare for braised with the legs for a while, leave a part of the breast meat, chop it to add supplementary food for the two small pieces, and leave the rest of the meat for stir-fry.

After the soup in the pot boils, put in the cut cabbage and frozen tofu, and slowly grumble over low heat.

Pour a little oil into the pot, scoop a spoonful of sugar, and slowly melt the heat until the color of the sugar gets darker. When it begins to bubble, pour in the cut ribs and legs, quickly stir-fry until the color of the rabbit meat in the pot is even, and then pour soy sauce and a little wine to stir-fry. Season, add hot water that has not passed rabbit meat, and stew it slowly.

After freeing up the time, Xu Xinger went to the warehouse to get potatoes and green onions, pinched a handful of green garlic in the earth basket in the house, and said regretfully, "If I had known that there were rabbits to eat, I should have soaked some mushrooms in advance."

Ye Shi got up and said, "I'll pick some tender buds. It's the same as soaking in hot water."

"Mom, then grab the sweet potato powder in."

Xu Xinger washed the potatoes, green onions and green garlic, peeled them, cut them into sections, and rolled away several times on the side of the rabbit cabbage frozen tofu soup.

She picked up a piece of frozen tofu, blew it for a long time, and bit it down. The core of the frozen tofu was also hot. The fragrant soup gushed into her mouth from the honeycomb eyes of the frozen tofu, mixed with the fragrance of tofu, which made her stick out her tongue and swallow it half a piece.

Xu Laoshi shouted in the room: "Sister-in-law, I can smell the fragrance!"

Xu Xinger first filled a basin of soup, added some salt and brought it into the room. She greeted Xu Laosan and Xu Laosi, "Dad, fourth uncle, you should drink a bowl of soup to warm up first."

Go back to the stove, take out everything in the pot, put the basin on the stove, and borrow some heat, so that it won't cool down soon.

Scooped water to clean the pot, added two pieces of firewood, and the fire soon flourished.

There is not much oil at home, so there is no way to fry the rabbit meat first. Xu Xinger threw the fat part into the pot first, forced the oil out, then threw the green onion, ginger and garlic into the pot, poured the green onion and the rest of the rabbit meat into the pot, and quickly stir-fryed it. At this time, Ye also served the soaked mushrooms and sweet potato powder. Come on.

When the rabbit meat is half cooked, pour mushrooms, sweet potato powder and potatoes into the pot together, stir-fry for a while, scoop two spoons of rabbit broth, cover the pot and simmer.

The soup in the other stove has almost been collected. Xu Xinger dipped it in a spoon and tasted the saltiness. She added a little salt and stir-fried it. She turned the fire slightly and let Yeshi watch the soup.

"The soup doesn't need to be too dry, and the braised soup mixed rice is also delicious." Xu Xinger turned over the other pot and poked the potatoes with a shovel. The core inside was still hard. She pressed the fire slightly and added two spoonfuls of soup to continue to stew.

The braised rabbit meat was soon out of the pot. Ye went into the house to clean up the table and brought in the vegetables and corn cakes.

Xu Laosi took a deep breath and said, "Sister-in-law, your craftsmanship is really getting better and better."

"Then you praised the wrong person. Today's dishes are all made by apricots. I was going to cut the rabbit into the pot and throw it into a big pot." Ye smiled brightly and was much happier to hear others praise his daughter than to praise himself.

"Oh, Xing'er's craft is good!" Xu Laoshi picked up a chopsticks of braised rabbit meat, which was so hot that he scratched his ears and cheeks.

"Fourth brother, why are you in a hurry? No one robs you, and there are children here. What do you look like!" Xu Lingzi washed Taoer's hand and hugged her to the kang and glanced at Xu Laosi.

"Try it, it's really delicious." Xu Laosi picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put it into the bowl in front of Xu Lingzi, and picked a piece of meat clip on his hind legs for Taoer. "There is only one bone in this place. It's easy to eat. Be careful not to burn it."

Xu Lingzi helped Taoer blow the meat colder and put it back in her bowl. Then she picked herself up and blew it. She couldn't help but be a little surprised and said, "Don't mention, Xing'er's dish is really delicious. I don't think it's worse than Master Liu."

Master Liu is the only master in the village. Anyone in the village who has a wedding will ask him to cook.

"Her child's family can't compare with other masters." Xu Laosan said this, but the chopsticks have never stopped, and it is so beautiful to eat a mouthful of wine and meat.

Xu Xinger was still stir-frying outside. Seeing that the soup was almost over, she stirred up the fire, threw the green garlic into the pot, put down a spoonful of salt, grabbed the shovel and stir-fried it quickly a few times, and then put it in a large bowl.

She pressed the fire with ashes and put the kettle at the mouth of the stove pit, so that there would be hot water when she washed at night.

"The last dish." Xu Xinger brought the vegetables into the house and saw that more than half of the bowl of braised rabbit meat had gone down. She quickly said, "Come out and bring some for my milk!"

"You still need to think about it. It has been dialed out a long time ago." Ye took the dishes and put them on the table. When Xu Xinger took off her apron and swept the dust from her body with a broom, she was asked to eat on the kang.

Xu Laosi gave Xu Xinger a thumbs-up, with bones in his mouth, and said vaguely, "Xing'er, what this rabbit did today is really amazing."

Xu Lingzi was very happy with today's soup. She raised her hand and filled another bowl, turned her head and said with a smile to Xu Xinger, "Can you teach your sister-in-law how to make these dishes tomorrow?"

"Oc well, it's actually quite simple." Xu Xinger was a little embarrassed to be praised. In fact, these dishes are not a big dish, but people at this time didn't expect to do so.

Xu Laosan picked up the chopsticks to stir-fry rabbit meat and nodded, "Xing'er can go out to open a restaurant."

Ye slapped him anly and said anly, "Is there anyone who praises his daughter so much? I don't feel ashamed."

Tao'er waited for Xu Xing'er to sit down and quickly came to her with a bowl and said, "The eldest sister's cooking is delicious, which is better than what my mother cooks."

"You have no conscience. Don't eat your mother's cooking in the future." Ye pinched Taoer's face affectionately.

When Xu Xinger saw that the rice in the peach bowl had been half eaten, she filled her with two spoons of braised rabbit soup and mixed it with a spoon and said, "Eat quickly."

When peaches taste it, it is indeed much more delicious than white rice. After eating this bowl of rice, Xu Xinger insists on adding another bowl of rice.

At night, Xu Xinger was afraid that she would be full, so she was willing to add a bowl of bottom, mixed a spoonful of soup and said, "I'll eat the rest tomorrow, and I won't run away. I'll have a stomachache if I'm full at night."

Taoer stopped insisting. She obediently ate the rice in her bowl and ran to the West Room to see the rabbit.

After eating here, several adults sat and talked for a while, which was nothing more than some trivial things about Xu Laosi's marriage during the Spring Festival and the first month, and then Xu Laosi and Lingzi went back to the old house with the dishes prepared by Ye family in advance.

After arriving home, old man Xu and Mrs. Xu didn't know why they were angry again. They stayed alone, and no one paid attention to anyone.

"Mother, I put the rabbit meat made by the third brother's house in the cupboard. Remember to eat it when it's hot tomorrow afternoon."

"Where did the rabbit meat come from?" Mrs. Xu turned over and saw that Xu Laosi was blushing. Xu Lingzi's cheeks were also red and she snorted coldly, "I said I wouldn't eat at home. I went out to eat delicious food and left my parents at home to eat cakes."

"The rabbit came back from the mountain. It's past dinner time when you get home. You have already cooked. Besides, didn't you bring it back for you?" Xu Laosi was dizzy, muttered a few words, turned back to his room, took off his coat, fell on the bed and fell asleep.

Xu Lingzi didn't want to argue with Mrs. Xu. She took a basin of water and took it directly back to her room to wash and prepare for bed.

Mr. Xu's anger was nowhere to vent. Looking at the old man Xu couldn't wait to quarrel with him again.

"If you don't feel well, you can bring the food in and eat it. Don't pick your nose and eyes all day long. Who owes you?" Old man Xu looked at her and knew what she was thinking about. He was too lazy to argue with her. After saying that, he spread out the bedding and went into the quilt to sleep.

When Mrs. Xu was provoked by him, she really went down to the kang, put on a cotton-padded coat and went to the kitchen. She ate a bowl of fried rabbit meat and a bowl of braised rabbit meat with warm rabbit soup.

Although I felt a little stuffed, the dish was really delicious. Mrs. Xu happily picked her teeth and rubbed her stomach and went back to her room.

But who would have thought that something went wrong with this meal? It was okay in the first half of the night, but suddenly began to have a stomachache in the second half of the night, and the intestines were wringing painful.

She began to shrink in the quilt and secretly endured it. Later, she couldn't help it, so she screamed.

First woke up the old man Xu, and then tossed both Xu Laosi and Xu Lingzi.
