Lin Xiaoxi smiled and nodded at her: "Sister-in-law, let's make meat dumplings tonight, would you like to help?"
"I know. I'll go right away." Bai Jinfeng agreed casually and followed Lin Xiaoxi to the north room.
"Hey, you're finally here. We've been waiting for your table." Liang Lanlan stood up and greeted, "Come on, let's divide the work and get started!"
Xue smiled sweetly and stroked her belly: "Baby, we are enjoying the good life with your Seventh Aunt today. We can eat meat dumplings!"

Ning Jia and An Ye came back from outside carrying a basket of wood, pushed open the door and placed it in front of the entrance.
"I wonder if Li Yao can come back tonight?"
An Ye: "If you can't go back, just sleep in my room for the night. Leave the firewood here for now."
"Hey, Tuo. Anyway, I don't want to stay alone in an empty room."
"Let's go, let's make braised pork tonight. It will make that old lady Xu so delicious!" said An Ye.
"My dear, are we going to have a hard time?"
These days, they have been eating either chicken or meat, and the things they brought back from their mother's home are being consumed rapidly.
If we don’t save money, we will probably run out of ammunition and food.
"Aren't those foods meant to fill our stomachs? We have to eat sooner or later! After we finish eating today, shall we go to the town tomorrow to have a look?"
There are so many things to buy that I have to go to town to buy them all.
"Okay, what you said makes sense, let's get started!"
That night, the Li family's yard was filled with the fragrant and sweet smell of meat, which attracted several children in the yard to sniff hard.
Aunt Niu was lying on the wall, leaning her head to look into the yard.
She didn't see anyone, but was overwhelmed by the smell of meat, which attracted her so much that she couldn't walk.
"Hey, this Li family is really delicious. They stew meat every day. Life is unbearable..."
Niu Qiushi was chopping firewood in the yard. When he saw his mother climbing the wall, he couldn't help but remind her, "Mom, be careful. If you fall and get hurt, it will be troublesome."
"It smells so good! Qiushi, can you come up and smell it too?"
Niu Qiushi grinned and said, "What are you smelling? We have meat at home, too! Mom, if you really want to eat some, just take out our meat and stew it tonight."
"How can that be? We're saving this meat for entertaining guests! Accountant Liu's wife said her sister's little daughter is pretty good, so she's saving this meat to introduce you to a girl!"
"Forget it, Mom. Don't waste your energy. It's actually quite hard for me to live with you." Niu Qiushi said helplessly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You have to get married. Our Lao Niu family is counting on you to carry on the incense! Come on, come on, it's getting late. We should also cook."
The Li family and the Niu family are separated by a courtyard wall, so the conversation on one side can be heard clearly on this side.
Ning Jia and An Ye listened with a smile, and discussed the Niu family's affairs while eating.
"I've met this young man Niu Qiushi twice. He's quite strong and not ugly. How come he's still single?" Ning Jiatu asked curiously.
An Ye laughed twice: "You don't work every day, so you naturally don't know. The old Niu family used to be very prosperous, but since Aunt Niu came into the family, members of the Niu family have died one after another. Some died of illness, and some died suddenly. They all said that Aunt Niu was so unlucky that she killed these people."
"I see."
"Of course! Who would dare to marry her? They're afraid of being cursed to death!"
Ning Jia burst out laughing: "No wonder Aunt Niu gets anxious when she hears about her son being single! If it were me, I'd be anxious too."
"Why are you in such a hurry?" The door opened and Bai Jinfeng came in from outside.
"Sister-in-law, you're here! Please sit down and have some braised pork!" An Ye stood up and greeted her warmly.
Bai Jinfeng was flattered.
Normally, An Ye always had a cold face and rarely smiled. But when she walked in today, she was a little overwhelmed by the other party's enthusiasm.
"No, no, we'll have meat dumplings for dinner." Bai Jinfeng said.
"Try a piece, come on!" An Ye fed the dumpling to her mouth.
It was all thanks to Bai Jinfeng that she got the cotton clothes yesterday, otherwise, she really wouldn’t have been able to do it.
She is a loyal person. If someone helps her, she will naturally repay them enthusiastically.
The meat was already in front of her mouth, and Bai Jinfeng had no intention of refusing it, so she opened her mouth and ate it quickly.
The aroma of meat instantly exploded in my mouth, fragrant but not greasy, with a hint of sweetness, it was delicious.
"It smells so good..." Compared to this, the meat dumplings I had in the evening tasted a bit inferior.
"My sister-in-law has a business, and she wants to bring you along to make money together. After making money, you can eat meat anytime you want! Don't you want to do this business?" Ning Jia took the opportunity to say.
"Yes, yes! Of course I did! What business?"
When Ning Jia told her about the matter, Bai Jinfeng immediately agreed and promised not to tell anyone else.
"When does it open?"
"tomorrow!"
"Okay! I'm good at making baskets. When will the gloves come?"
"We'll be there the day after tomorrow. But... we'll probably have to wait a bit because there are so many things and they're too eye-catching... There are too many people living in our front yard, so it's inconvenient to do anything." Ning Jia said.
An Ye nodded: "It would be great if the backyard could be used."
"It should be soon." Ning Jia smiled, "I think Lin Zhiqing doesn't want to live in the backyard anymore. If everyone talks about the backyard more, she will definitely want to move to the front yard."
Bai Jinfeng immediately expressed her opinion: "Why don't you tell me? We will use the backyard sooner or later, so leave it to me. Just wait for the news."
"That's great." Ning Jia said happily, "Who knows, your Tongtong radio station might come in handy..."
"The radio station?" Bai Jinfeng was stunned for a moment, then she understood what she meant. "It must be useful."
The three of them reached an alliance in an instant.
"By the way, I was so busy chatting and laughing with you that I almost forgot the purpose of my coming here."
"Sister-in-law, what's the matter with you?"
Bai Jinfeng nodded and lowered her voice to say to Ning Jia, "You haven't returned to your room this afternoon, have you?"
"Um, what's the problem?"
"I saw Lin Xiaoxi move a table out of your room today, and stayed in your room for quite a while. Sister-in-law, please go back and check carefully to make sure nothing is missing." Bai Jinfeng told Ning Jia what she saw in the afternoon.
She was afraid that Lin Xiaoxi would steal Ning Jia's things.
Since Lin Xiaoxi seems to be very rich, but who would go into someone else's house to move things and stay there for such a long time?
This is a problem.
"Thank you for the reminder, sister-in-law. I really need to go take a look."
"Go ahead, but don't tell them I said that."
After Bai Jinfeng left, Ning Jia hurriedly ate two mouthfuls of rice and put down his chopsticks: "Ye Ye, you wash the dishes, I'll go back and take a look first."
An Ye: "Go quickly and take a closer look."
Ning Jia came out of An Ye's room and ran into Liang Lanlan and her family returning to their room.
Li Yuan was surprised when he saw Ning Jia coming out of An Ye's room. "Sister-in-law, when did you become so close to your fifth sister-in-law? Didn't you want to strangle each other to death as soon as you met?"
Ning Jia rolled her eyes and thought, what the hell is that to you!
He swallowed the words back and said, "There is nothing to share in this division. If I continue to fight with her, won't we starve to death? Life is hard now, let's just stop fighting and make do with each other! It won't be too late to break up when life gets better."
The implication is: The quarrel between our two families was all caused by the old lady, and it was caused by you just standing by and watching without helping.
Li Yuan chuckled twice: "It's quite nice, and harmony is better than anything else."
Ning Jia snorted and went to his room.
Liang Lanlan glared at her husband: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Look at her like that! Let's go back to the house!"
When Liang Nengneng saw Ning Jia enter the room, he covered his mouth with his hands and laughed softly.
Liang Lanlan turned around and saw that his shoulders were shaking with laughter: "What are you laughing at?"
Liang Nengneng pointed to Ning Jia's room.
Liang Lanlan suddenly became nervous: "What did you do? Don't mess with her, have you forgotten what happened last time when you were trapped in the closet?"
"It wasn't me!" Liang Nengneng whispered, "It was done by that unmarried Aunt Seven..."
Liang Lanlan heard that there was melon to eat: "What are you doing? Come on, let's talk inside."
