Widow Li nodded with a smile, and said heartily, "After that, I will be a prodigal. I have eaten sister Chu's dishes, and then go back to eat what I made. The soup is always clear and watery, and I have no appetite."
Chu Rong, who wasted money, twitched her mouth and wanted to refute, but when she thought about it carefully, she seemed to be like what the two sisters-in-law said. You must know that salt is a precious thing, eighty yuan a catty, and cornmeal can be replaced by a family of four. Eat for ten days.
Thinking of this, Chu Rong didn't have the nerve to speak, and greeted the two sister-in-laws for dinner.
Two tables were set up in the courtyard, braised pork in brown sauce, boiled shrimp, plus a steamed saltwater fish, two pork knuckles, and four tough dishes that made more than a dozen craftsmen drool.
There are also four cold dishes, only one is considered a vegetarian dish, cold fungus, and the remaining three are all pig offals marinated by Chu Rong.
There is also a small pot of watermelon on each table, plus tomato and egg soup.
There are a total of ten dishes, which can be regarded as perfect.
On the kang in the house, several women and children gathered around the kang table. Widow Li stared and exclaimed, "I didn't pay attention to the fire just now, so I made these dishes, sister Chu, it's a lot of money, right?" .¡±
Not only Widow Li, but all three besides Chu Rongniang were shocked. Liu Guilan's family was better off, after all, Chu Rong would give her a copy of any good things from Chu Rong's side.
But Widow Li and the three mothers are different, especially Li Wei, who came to eat for the first time, was even more shocked.
After tasting every dish, he even praised Chu Rong without reservation, "Aunt Rong, your cooking skills are really good, and your cooking is much better than my mother's."
Li Zhong's mouth was full of oil, and he didn't look like a little schoolboy. Hearing his sister's words, he hurriedly nodded in support.
Chu Rong was so praised that she frowned, "Eat more if you like it. In fact, these dishes are just like Sister Li said. Add more seasonings, and stir-fry them will taste better."
Li Wei nodded again and again after hearing this, thinking that she would do the same for her mother-in-law, father-in-law and husband when she went back.
? Her in-law's life is relaxed, and her in-laws have a good temper. The kitchen is fully entrusted to her, unlike other families, where the daughter-in-law enters the kitchen as if to guard against thieves.
After a big meal at noon, the craftsmen received their wages, and Chu Rong carried a bag of vegetables by herself. The craftsmen left happily, and before leaving, they kept saying that they would build a house in the future. On call.
Several women helped Chu Rong clean up the dishes and left with the children.
Chu Rong coaxed the two little ones to sleep, and when she came out of the house, seeing Huang Shuhai sweeping the yard, she hurriedly stepped forward and said excitedly, "Don't mess with it, come with me to see the new house."
After finishing speaking, he pulled Huang Shuhai's sleeve and walked out of the courtyard.
Huang Shuhai had no choice but to throw down his broom and follow.
The new house was built according to Chu Rong's drawings. The difference from the tile-roofed houses in the village is that there is an extra row of upside-down seats at the gate. There are three rooms, which can be used as guest rooms and utility rooms.
There are three main rooms, facing south from north, and the extra side room on the west side was built into a kitchen, connecting the ground dragon of the whole house. The ear room on the east was planned by Chu Rong as a storage room.
There are three wing rooms in the east and west, and the two babies will be six years old after the new year, so they can live separately.
The standard four-in-one courtyard, but because of growing vegetables and raising chickens, there is a spacious backyard behind the main house, chicken coops, rabbit coops, and donkey sheds, all made of leftover green bricks.
"It's really good. I also paved the yard with blue bricks. When I have time, I built a small square flower bed in the middle and planted a banyan tree. It can enjoy the shade in summer."
The more she looked at it, the more satisfied Chu Rong's delicate cheeks flushed. She could be regarded as a family with a house and a car, and it was a courtyard house. A year ago, she would not have dared to think about both of them.
"By the way, you can find time to ask Uncle Lizheng if you can buy the small mountain bag behind our house." Suddenly thinking of something, Chu Rong hurriedly turned back to look for Huang Shuhai.
"Buy mountain buns?" Huang Shuhai was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Chu Rong in confusion and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Chu Rong's eyes flickered a little, and she explained dryly, "I see a lot of fish and shrimps in that creek. When we buy them, we can dig a fish pond and raise fish and shrimps. By the way, we can also raise ducks and so on. And the mountain is suitable for If you plant fruit trees, you can sell them for money when they grow fruit.¡±
After explaining these reasons, Chu Rong herself didn't believe it. She knew that the mountainous land was treated as wasteland, and no matter how cheap it was, it would cost two taels of silver per mu. Fortunately, the small hill was small enough, and it looked like it was only seventy or eighty mu.
There was nothing she could do. When harvesting watermelons two days ago, there were two more fields, which still needed to be planted with fruit, and the fish ponds on the farm were almost in trouble.If she didn't want to find a way to sell it, she was afraid that those fish and shrimp would become fine. But the biggest fish she saw definitely weighed more than five catties, and the shrimp was the size of a palm.
Huang Shuhai heard the words, his eyes darkened, and he nodded with his usual expression, "I'll go at night, and it shouldn't be difficult to buy the mountain bag." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
