Zhou Yun was at home, watching the Fu family go out with the wild boar, and then watching them come back with so many old hens.
Moreover, the voices of Aunt Li and the other people were not suppressed, and everyone in the whole yard could hear them clearly.
She naturally heard it, and said sourly while knitting her sweater: "So many old hens, can she eat them all?"
When she heard that the old hen was exchanged for wild boar meat, Mrs. Cai felt very sad:
"I knew this was not a joke. Wild boar is pure meat. How much is left after removing the hair from these chickens? This really doesn't treat meat as meat!"
Mrs. Cai was not a picky person. In her opinion, the Fu family's decision to replace wild boar with old hens was simply like taking off pants to fart, which was a waste of time.
And I suffered a loss!
As for stewing old hen soup during confinement, it was not something she considered at all.
After being a daughter-in-law for many years, she finally became a mother-in-law. She was also a daughter-in-law to me, so why isn't she so hypocritical?
These days, just having meat to eat is considered a blessing. Many women don’t even think about eating meat after giving birth, and they even count on drinking brown sugar water and eggs!
Are you so particular that you must drink old hen soup?
Zhou Yun snorted, "The one your family is holding is a golden egg. Just keep an eye on her. Otherwise, she will become a disaster sooner or later."
Not to mention the Stone Mill Brigade, even in the city there is no one who dotes on his daughter-in-law so much.
Speaking of this, Mrs. Cai rolled her eyes and said, "What golden eggs? She's obviously going to give birth to a girl! She's not afraid of losing her luck if she gives birth to a girl and eats chicken."
Zhou Yun strongly agreed with this point. She didn't know what she was thinking about, but her eyes rolled.
I couldn't help but lower my voice and said, "Mom, do you think the Fu family can't tell that she is pregnant with a girl?"
It's not that Zhou Yun thinks too much. Fu Jingchen is the only son. How can the Fu family not miss a son?
"You really have this ability." Mrs. Cai's eyes flashed.
Zhou Yun's eyes flashed with a hint of happiness. "If that's the case, she can just wait."
It is indeed good now, but if a daughter is really born, it will be a problem whether there will be any brown sugar water eggs, let alone these old hens.
It's not like she hasn't seen mothers-in-law punish their daughters-in-law like this before.
Just wait.
There were many educated youths like Zhou Yun and her mother-in-law who secretly grumbled about the fact that the Fu family had exchanged wild boar meat for so many old hens.
But the Fu family was not affected at all.
The whole family is busy with the chicken coop.
Fu's mother and Aunt Li discussed and decided to make a bamboo fence and temporarily raise the chickens behind the house.
Although Fu Wang is a talented person, he knows nothing about fence making.
Thanks to Aunt Li's skill in bamboo weaving, she sat in the yard and talked with the Fu family while teaching them how to weave, and she really taught them how to weave.
I edited it for the whole afternoon and finished it when Jiang Yuman came back from class.
Fu Jingchen helped to build the fence behind the house, and then caught the chickens in the compartment.
Seeing this, Aunt Li said to Mother Fu, "Sister, this is not the way to keep the chickens. There should be a layer of netting around them, otherwise they will fly out."
Although chickens cannot fly like birds, they can flap their wings and fly up. If you don't hang a net on the top of the net, you can catch chickens everywhere once they fly up.
Fu's mother was troubled. "There is no internet at home."
"What's this? I have some at home. I'll get it for you." Aunt Li said and left in a hurry.
I waited for her to come up with the net and helped her to set up the net before leaving.
While they were busy, Jiang Yuman was cooking in the kitchen.
She heated up the leftovers from lunch and didn't make any other staple food. She kneaded the dough and planned to make braised noodles.
Dice the prepared vegetables and stir-fry them in a pan. After serving, add eggs and stir-fry them, following the same steps as before.
Next, fry the tomatoes to extract the juice, add water and start kneading the noodles.
The braised noodles were hot right out of the pot and extremely delicious. The leftovers from lunch were also placed in the bowls, which looked quite rich.
When the food was served, Fu Haitang ate without even raising his head.
Fu Wangxiao and his friends had been busy all afternoon and were indeed hungry, so they ate with relish as well.
We will have time to talk only after we finish our meal.
Fu Wang first looked at Fu Jingchen, "I will notify you this afternoon not to pay the public grain. I will go tomorrow, and you will go then."
Because the carts were pushed, the people who went to deliver grain every year were the young and strong people in the village.
There were a limited number of carts, and they were usually used by different teams in turn. It happened that the team also went to deliver food this afternoon, so Yao Anguo was able to change the time.
Yao Zhenjiang came to inform him specially. Although Fu Jingchen just came this year, he also went with him.
"Yeah." Fu Jingchen agreed.
It was just a cart of food, which was really nothing to him.
Mother Fu looked at Jiang Yuman and said, "Manman, are you not going to class tomorrow?"
Jiang Yuman nodded. "Students have two days off, so it's just right for them to rest."
It was only after she became a teacher that she realized that it was not only the students who looked forward to the holidays, but also the teachers.
She has been looking forward to this for a long time.
"Then will you come with me to the commune tomorrow?" Mother Fu explained, "This time our whole family will go."
The public grain was also paid at the Hongqi Commune, and Fu Jingchen could come out and join them after paying the grain.
Jiang Yuman was indeed a little craving for the meat sandwich from the state-owned hotel, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
Fu Wangxiao and his wife, as well as Fu Haitang, were all busy at work before, so this time the whole family went to the commune and were able to buy some food.
Speaking of this, Jiang Yuman was still a little worried.
The peppers in her space are ripe.
If you don't pick two more, they might rot in the ground.
I have to find a suitable reason to bring it up recently...
She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't touch the half-remaining bowl of noodles.
"Why don't you eat anymore?" Fu Jingchen tilted his head and looked at his wife.
Of course Jiang Yuman couldn't tell the truth and was thinking of finding an excuse.
I haven’t figured it out yet.
Fu Jingchen took the bowl very naturally and ate all the noodles she had not finished.
After eating, he said, "I'll make you flower chicken tonight."
Jiang Yuman said this afternoon that she wanted to eat flower chicken, and he remembered it.
The Fu family members on the side were stunned.
Especially Fu Haitang, looking at Fu Jingchen like a stranger.
"Brother, are you still my brother? Where did your previous attention to detail go?" she couldn't help but ask.
Fu Jingchen raised his eyes slightly, "This is my daughter-in-law."
What he meant was that he had no principles when it came to his daughter-in-law.
Fu Haitang: “…….”
Mother Fu reacted with a smile in her eyes, and stood up and said, "Manman, you want to eat flower chicken, right? I'll go get you a fat one."
As she spoke, Fu's mother looked relieved.
Being able to eat is a blessing. She couldn't eat anything at this time before.
Hearing Jiang Yuman eating flower chicken, she was very happy. After she finished speaking, she didn't even wait for her to open her mouth and hurried to the back room.
Jiang Yuman didn't have time to stop.
As soon as the skin turned black, I ate the delicious chicken.
After eating, I washed up and went to bed, just like the other educated youths.
But at this time, the two wives of the Yao family were not in bed, but sitting in the main room wearing their coats.
After hearing that everything was quiet outside, Yao Simeng waved and led his brother and sister-in-law out the door.
