Chapter 175: Child Bride She is Happy and Carefree Fifteen
"This fish stew is really good! Our Wanwan's cooking skills are getting better and better!"
At the dinner table in the evening, everyone was conquered by Lin Wanwan's fish cooking skills.
Lin Wanwan has always loved eating fish, but her cooking skills are not satisfactory.
So in my previous life, I specifically sought out a chef who was good at cooking fish and learned from him carefully.
Now, when Lin Wanwan cooks fish, it will no longer have the fishy smell like before.
It can deeply bring out the aroma of fish, especially when making chopped pepper fish head, sweet and sour fish, and braised fish.
Even compared with a five-star chef, the difference is not much.
"Grandpa and grandma, this fish is big and has few bones. You can eat more."
"Mom and Dad, you've been working hard lately. Eat more fish to replenish your body!"
Lin Wanwan picked up a piece of the most delicious fish belly meat for each of the elders.
Then he started to put the fish tail into his bowl.
"Don't just focus on us, eat more yourself."
"It's hot now, and the fish won't be kept until tomorrow. Everyone, work harder and try to finish all the food on the table."
Because I stewed two fish in the evening, I didn’t make too many staple foods.
There were only corn pancakes made by Grandma An and a plate of stir-fried vegetables.
The whole family enjoyed the meal very satisfyingly and cherished the rare good time.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
"Dongdongdong~"
There was a knock on the door, and An Siyuan put down his chopsticks and walked to the gate of the courtyard.
"Squeak~" After the sound of the door opening, a surprised voice was heard.
"Brother, why are you here at this time? Is there something wrong at home?"
Although An Siyuan's family is small, his wife Liu Xiaoyan's family is very prosperous.
The reason why Grandma An chose Liu Xiaoyan as An Siyuan's wife was because she had a large family.
On weekdays, the Liu family rarely visited unless there was something important to inform them.
Liu Xiaoyan rarely goes back home except on holidays.
If there are fewer people in the family, does that mean there are fewer people working?
If one person leaves, the rest will have a harder time.
certainly.
Liu Xiaoyan's family members are also nice people, although Grandma Liu is a bit strong-willed, speaks loudly, and has a quick temper.
But during the busy farming season, as soon as the housework is finished, she will rush her sons and grandsons to help with the An family.
Therefore, An Siyuan gets along very well with these brothers-in-law of the Liu family.
"Is it Big Brother who's here? Hurry up and call him in. We can have something to eat together."
Liu Xiaoyan heard the sound and quickly came out of the house.
"Her elder brother is here, come and sit down."
"It just so happened that your sister and nephew's wife bought two fish at the ferry today. The fish died when they got home, so we had to stew them all."
"We were worried we wouldn't be able to finish the food, but you came just in time to help us digest some of it."
Grandma An and Grandpa An also stood up and warmly welcomed Liu's eldest brother-in-law to the table.
"Uncle, I'll get you a bowl."
Lin Wanwan also put down her chopsticks and quickly went to the kitchen to get a set of bowls and chopsticks.
"Brother, you come here at this time, is there something urgent at home?"
Everyone was busy, and when they sat down again, Liu Xiaoyan finally asked.
"It's nothing serious. Your niece is going on a blind date in a couple of days, and the man will be coming to see her."
"Mom told you to go back and help keep your eyes open. After all, this is a matter of life and death for your niece. If she makes a mistake, her whole life will be ruined."
Brother Liu is a very simple and honest man, and he doesn't say any fancy words.
He told Liu Xiaoyan everything about the situation at home, then lowered his head to eat without saying a word.
"So it's because of this. Fine, tell me the date and I'll definitely go back that day."
I originally thought something big had happened at home, but I didn't expect it was because of my niece's blind date.
After all, she is the only girl in her family, so it is her responsibility to go back and help out.
"By the way, uncle, what have you been busy with at home recently?"
"Sister Xiaohong hasn't come to play with me for a long time. I miss her so much!"
Lin Wanwan moved the chili sauce towards Uncle Liu. Everyone in the Liu family can eat spicy food in their own way. It can be said that even if they only drink porridge, they have to put a bowl of chili sauce on it.
So, after Lin Wanwan passed the chili sauce in front of him to the opposite side, Uncle Liu immediately picked up a large chopstick and put it into the bowl.
"Isn't it that your aunt is looking for a couple for her? She saw a few families, but our family wasn't very satisfied from the beginning, so she didn't ask you to come back?"
"This time, we're going to see a butcher in town. The kid used to go to the countryside with his father to collect pigs, and he's learned his father's pig-killing skills perfectly."
"Besides, he owns a pork shop in town. Whether he makes a lot or not is unclear, but at least he'll have a way to make a living and won't starve."
"Originally, such a good marriage was not going to happen to our Xiaohong, but a few days ago, your aunt took Xiaohong to the town, and that child happened to see them."
"Look, they've taken a liking to my little Hong, so they sent a matchmaker over to pass on the message!"
Judging from what Uncle Liu said, he seems to be quite satisfied with this person.
However, Lin Wanwan could also understand it. After all, in such a backward era, finding a butcher as a relative would at least ensure that her daughter would not have to worry about meat in the future.
"From what you said, big brother, this butcher's family is doing pretty well!"
After listening to her elder brother's words, Liu Xiaoyan was also very satisfied with this marriage.
If my niece can marry into such a family, she will surely enjoy a happy life in the future.
It's better than marrying a village peasant who has endless work to do all day long. It would be really desperate if you meet a wicked mother-in-law.
When the Liu family looks for a son-in-law, they always value the other person's character and the reputation of his elders.
As long as the other party has the best quality things in his family, I won’t even consider it.
Uncle Liu conveyed the message and went back home covered in black after dinner.
I have almost no time to go out during the day, so I can only wait until the evening to finish work before rushing here.
This walk took almost an hour.
The main reason is that there is a big mountain between the Liu family and the An family. Although there are many villages on this mountain, there are no large wild beasts.
But when traveling at night, there is no guarantee that you won’t fall, which is always worrying.
After Uncle Liu left, Lin Wanwan and the others were busy at home for three days as usual.
Three days later, we will go to Uncle Liu's house.
That morning, Liu Xiaoyan got up early and busied herself with packing.
After all, it's a rare opportunity to go back to my parents' home, so it's not good to go empty-handed.
He took the cloth and sugar cubes he had bought in town two days ago, and also packed a jar of homemade rice wine.
Although it is not time to drink the rice wine yet, you can take it to his parents to keep it and drink it when the time comes.
In addition to these, there are the clothes and shoes that Liu Xiaoyan had made for her parents before.
A large backpack was filled with things and was carried by An Siyuan, while Lin Wanwan and Liu Xiaoyan followed beside him.
The three of them said goodbye to Grandpa An and Grandma An and set off for the Liu family.
