Chapter 91 Uncle Shao was choked and had nothing to say
It would be better if they didn't come. Qiao Xuan rested for a while and then went into the kitchen to busy herself.
Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao happily helped.
Mrs. Xu was at home today. She was very happy to see Qiao Xuan buying snacks for her two children. She wanted to come in to help, but Qiao Xuan persuaded her to leave.
At dinner time, there were pan-fried lamb chops, pork trotter and radish stew, pan-fried sweet and sour pork trotter, stir-fried yam slices, stir-fried lettuce, and cold spinach, which were all mouth-watering when served on the table.
The barbecued pork is also ready, but has been put away in the kitchen and will be eaten tomorrow night.
At dinner, when Uncle Shao saw the table full of meat, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and gasp.
Before he could say anything, Qiao Xuan smiled very considerately and said, "Don't worry, Dad. I didn't use the public treasury's money to buy these things. I used my dowry to buy them. My husband has worked hard in his studies, and my eldest brother, his wife, and my third brother have been exhausted recently. They deserve to eat something good!"
Uncle Shao was suddenly choked and had nothing to say.
He still owed his daughter-in-law two taels of silver, so he couldn't even ask for half of it to be given to the second and third wives to satisfy their cravings.
Uncle Shao said "Oh", but couldn't help but said: "There are so many, I'm afraid we can't finish them all."
If there is not enough food, you can send some to the second and third rooms. My nephews, nieces, and grandchildren will also feel sorry for them.
Shao Sanlang curled his lips and said, "We are all adults in this family, we can finish it! Don't worry, Dad, this smells really delicious, if there is any left, I will buy it all, hehe!"
Qiao Xuan covered her mouth and giggled.
Uncle Shao saw that Qiao Xuan didn't understand what he meant and didn't take the initiative to say anything. He felt annoyed and glared at Shao Sanlang and scolded him: "Eat, eat, eat! You're about to get married, and all you do is eat all day long!"
Fang secretly rolled her eyes: "Everyone sit down and eat!"
Uncle Shao remained silent.
The lamb chops are crispy and tender. The pig's trotters are stewed very well, soft, sour and sweet when you bite them. The stewed soup is a perfect blend of the aroma of meat and onion, which is fragrant and delicious.
The two stir-fried side dishes and the cold spinach salad are refreshing and appetizing.
The whole family was very satisfied and ate so much that not even the juice of the sweet and sour pig's trotter was left.
Shao Sanlang mixed the soup with rice and ate it sweetly, and said happily to Uncle Shao: "Dad, you see, I said I could finish it!"
Uncle Shao: "Even if there is food, it can't stop you from talking!"
Qiao Xuan couldn't help laughing.
When they returned to their bedroom at night, Shao Yunduan said to Qiao Xuan, "By the way, there will be a dragon boat race in the county town during the Dragon Boat Festival. The three teachers at the academy asked us to go. Do you want to go and see it?"
Qiao Xuan's eyes lit up: "Is it fun?"
Shao Yunduan felt inexplicably happy, knowing that she would be interested, so he nodded: "Not bad, it will be very lively then."
"Okay!" Qiao Xuan smiled: "I'll go too!"
She had never seen such a scene before and really wanted to go and see the excitement.
It's also a good opportunity to observe the local customs and culture.
Shao Yunduan smiled: "If that's the case, then it's settled."
"Um!"
The next day, Qiao Xuan remembered a patch of wild watermelon seedlings she had found somewhere in Wangqing Mountain.
He couldn't help but slap his forehead: How could I forget such an important thing? Just when he had some free time, he called Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao to go get the melon seedlings and plant them in the garden.
That's a lot of land. We can plant more than one acre of it when we get it back. With the blessing of supernatural powers, it will surely grow well - no, it's an excellent growth.
The watermelons produced will definitely be numerous, big, round and sweet.
