There are delicacies from various places here. Eating too much seafood is not good for you as it can easily cause gout. Jiang Yan eats it in a planned way.
In Yunnan Province, as long as people are not afraid of getting angry, they can eat as much as they want.
Jiang Yan said calmly: "It's cold outside, his father is at home with him, I can't sit still, so I came to chat with you guys!"
Those aunties were skillfully picking onions and cutting vegetables, but Jiang Yan was the only one who was working as if nothing had happened. That was not okay, because she was a lazy woman!
If this were to happen, wouldn’t his image be ruined?
Some of them looked at her fair and tender hands and said enviously, "Xiao Yan, you are really good at choosing men. I have several chilblains. It's okay when it's cold, but it starts to itch when it's hot. It's so uncomfortable. The man thinks you are pretending, but it won't kill anyone."
If you don't do the housework, no one will do it. He lies on the bed like a big boss, and the kid doesn't care about anything at all. Everyone at home and outside is relying on you.
If you ask me, this man is quite comfortable. He only needs to pay a dowry and marry a daughter-in-law, which will relieve her mother's worries. Your mother-in-law is also very nice and treats you like her own daughter."
Just as he finished speaking, he saw Miao Xiuying coming over with a bowl filled with steaming hot noodles. She put a spoonful of lard in the bowl, sprinkled with pepper, and cooked some pea tips that she grew at home. It smelled really good.
Miao Xiuying said gently: "Xiaoyan, you didn't eat much this morning. Eat this bowl of noodles first. If you're not satisfied, I'll cook more for you."
Jiang Yan took it and smiled, "Mom, you are so troublesome. You even specially cooked noodles for me!"
Miao Xiuying was wearing an apron, and the water stains on her hands had not yet dried. She found a place, stood there and warmed her hands by the fire.
This old tree root was dug up from the mountain by the men in the village early in the morning. It was burned for the whole morning. Everyone sat around the fire, but their hands and feet weren't cold at all.
The people around her looked at the noodles in her bowl and couldn't help but slobber. The Lu family really had an easy life.
Plenty of noodles are added, as well as lard. The lard is cooked by swirling it around in the pot twice with cotton cloth. Then the vegetables are poured in, stir-fried for a while, and then water and salt are added, and it's ready to eat.
Seeing that she liked it, Miao Xiuying's mouth corners were almost stretched to her ears, and she grinned, "No matter who I am starving, I can't let you starve. Anyway, it's not far away, so it's easy to do.
We just slaughtered the pig, and it will be a while before we eat. If you can't sit still here, go back and lie down. I'll call you when the food is served."
When this brigade holds a wedding, they borrow pots, pans, and utensils from neighbors. They are marked so they won't get lost.
If it breaks, you'll have to pay for it.
Jiang Yan lowered her head and ate noodles, and said obediently: "Mom, I'm just warming myself by the fire. I'm too lazy to move. Where's the baby? Is he still awake?"
It really was true what she said, that she was only responsible for giving birth but not raising the child. As long as Lu Xiao was at home, most of the baby-raising work fell on him.
And Lu Xiao has also gone from a novice dad to a familiar father. Being a man, you have to be taught.
If you take on all the hardships of giving birth and raising a baby, and he has no sense of participation at all, he will think you are pulling a pig's leg when you complain a few words.
Miao Xiuying chatted with her, "I just changed the diaper and am preparing the milk powder. Lu Li will take care of the baby with him. When we women are away from home, we should not worry about home. That is what men should worry about. Eat slowly. I will send the bowl back after you finish eating."
Those young wives were full of envy for Jiang Yan. How could they have such a good mother-in-law like Miao Xiuying?
Aunt Wang also came, with her daughter-in-law sitting next to her, her head almost shrunk into her neck.
She said angrily, "Are you here to steal dogs? Hold your head up high. You are really bringing shame to my Wang family."
She was so angry that she gnashed her teeth because she was always inferior to Miao Xiuying. Miao Xiuying saw it out of the corner of her eye, but ignored her.
The man beside her asked in a disgusting tone, "Sister Wang, how long has it been? There is still no movement in your daughter-in-law's belly?
I heard that Lao Luo from the neighboring brigade is quite accurate in his predictions. Why don't you let him check out your son and daughter-in-law? Don't wait until they are too old to have children, as it would be difficult for them to do so.
Look at Xiaoyan, she is only 18 or 19 years old, and she is already a mother of three children. She has sons and daughters, so she is so lucky. Your family is so proud of you, so it can’t be impossible, right?”
When he said this, the others pricked up their ears and listened, "The older generation said that the shorter the fingers, the shorter that part. Your son is not really going to use a magnifying glass to look for it, is he?
Oh, then don't be embarrassed. Take him to see it earlier. If a woman marries him, she will be a widow. Don't look for the reason on her. "
Aunt Wang was so angry at their constant talk that she shouted in frustration, "What are you women saying? My son is in good health, but the bed was shaken to pieces. I feel ashamed when I hear that. It was obviously because she was pregnant that she failed to give birth to a child. It's a pity for my Yaozu to marry such a jinx. It's really going to end our Wang family's lineage!"
As she spoke, she slapped her thighs, her voice full of emotion. Jiang Yan rolled her eyes and said slowly, "Aunt Wang, don't blame me for saying that people are not good, you blame the uneven road.
It's possible that the seeds of your Wang Yaozu are of poor quality and can't take root and sprout. Poor girl, you have to suffer with him!"
If someone else said this, Aunt Wang would rush up and tear her mouth apart. The target would be Jiang Yan. She had been beaten before, so she wouldn't dare to do that!
His voice couldn't be any lower, "Nonsense, my son is fine!"
Others looked at her and laughed secretly, saying, "Old man, there are people you are afraid of too!"
Why don't those who acted like spoiled brats in the team dare to act arrogantly in front of Jiang Yan?
Miao Xiuying echoed her, "Don't be idle all day, you've ruined yourself, and let your wife take a lot of blame. If it were me, I would have packed up my things and ran away without stopping. Where can't I live? Her Wang family is a hell."
Aunt Wang saw that she was fanning the flames and jumped up in anger: "Old Miao, stop talking nonsense to me. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking? Transferring is useless.
Where else can she go except my house? Her parents don’t want her anymore.”
It was said to be a betrothal gift, but in fact it was bought from the deep mountains and forests. She could beat or scold him as she pleased.
However, she rolled her eyes and praised Miao Xiuying, "Lu Li's wife is dark-skinned and not very attractive. What does your Lu Li like about her? It can't be that her family is rich.
Yes, she looks older than Lu Li, how could he eat her? Her pointed belly shows that she is pregnant with a daughter. You might as well give her an abortion in advance to avoid being upset later."
We are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are you playing Liao Zhai with me? Miao Xiuying knew that she couldn't bear to see others do well.
She said with a fake smile, "If you give birth to a granddaughter, she will be our family's treasure. If you have too many grandsons, they will be worthless. If your family can't get pregnant in the past year or so, I would hang myself if I were you.
"Don't be so careless with your words, or you will be punished for it. If you really make your Wang family extinct, you won't be able to give an explanation to your ancestors when you die."
If we talk about someone with a sharp tongue, it has to be Miao Xiuying. She never cares about other people's lives when she speaks.
