Chapter 48 You have a really sharp nose!
When Wang Xiaojun and his friends were about to leave, Tong Xiayue packed some tomato beef brisket for them to take back. They had been busy until this hour, but they refused to stay for dinner. She must bring some food back for them, otherwise they would have nothing to eat.
Aunt Wang liked this delicate girl more and more. She always seemed to have endless energy, was not stingy, and understood the ways of the world. Who wouldn't like such a good girl?
Yesterday, I told my family that I would invite Aunt Wang to help today. They had no objection to these matters, but Zhang Cuihua asked Ji Jiamu privately: "What do you mean by your sister-in-law inviting outsiders instead of our own family?"
Ji Jiamu: "Sister-in-law must have her own considerations, so don't worry about it. Don't you know her character? How could she let down her own family?"
After hearing what Ji Jiamu said, Zhang Cuihua didn't say anything more, and felt that what he said made sense.
Today, when the Ji family came back, they were all happy to see the tomato beef brisket on the table.
Tong Xiayue also fried a few side dishes and pickled kimchi herself, which are all great with rice!
Everyone ate big bites as soon as they were on the table!
After dinner, someone was seen wandering outside the yard stealthily, and Ji Jiashu walked out to check who it was.
Sister Wang from next door poked her head out and said shyly, "Jiashu, have you eaten?"
Ji Jiashu replied, "Sister Wang, I just ate. What's up?"
Sister Wang actually smelled the aroma of meat coming from the Ji family every day recently. The family members were all confused by the aroma and couldn't stand it.
His family only ate porridge every day, and at most they had some stir-fried dishes to improve their diet. I remember Ye Lan said that the family was not in a good condition after she got sick, but now they can smell meat every day.
Sister Wang: "Jiashu, why do I feel that your family has been eating very well recently, and it smells so good every day!"
Tong Xiayue came out at this time, and happened to hear what Sister Wang said, and smiled: "Sister Wang, everyone in the family has been feeling a little weak recently, and I wanted to give them some supplements, so I went to the town to buy some pig offal, which is not a good thing, but I thought of giving them some supplements."
Sister Wang was happy when she heard it. Who eats pig offal every day? No matter how cheap it is, it is impossible to eat it every day.
Tong Xiayue walked into the kitchen and took some previously halved pig liver and pig heart, as well as a few pieces of pig large intestines in a lunch box, poured halogen sauce on them, covered them, and walked out of the kitchen.
Tong Xiayue: "Auntie Wang, I made this today. Take it back and try it."
When Auntie Wang saw that the girl actually handed her a box, she immediately smiled and said, "How can you live like this? You gave me so much. You can save it for tomorrow!"
Tong Xiayue smiled and said, "We have more at home. This one is not worth much, so I bought a little more. If you don't mind, take it back and eat it."
Auntie Wang couldn't ask any more questions and went back happily with the box of salty food.
After Mrs. Wang left, Tong Xiayue pulled Ji Jiashu and said worriedly, "Jiashu, the salty smell is too strong. More and more people will definitely smell it. Everyone will have some thoughts in their minds. Should we think of a solution?"
Ji Jiashu also realized this problem two days ago. Every day when he got off work, people passing by the door of the Ji family could smell it. In the afternoon, everyone would ask what they had for lunch and why it smelled so good. No one in the family knew what to say, so they could only make excuses.
Now it seems that making excuses is not going to work. The only way is to think of a permanent solution.
After the two discussed for a while, it was Ji Jiashu who came up with a solution: "Wife, next time someone asks you, just tell them that I have an old comrade-in-arms in the next town, and his family is the director of the factory. I heard that you cook well and wanted to invite you to cook, but you thought it was too far, so I thought of making some broth at home and sending it to our town, and then someone will come to pick it up. What do you think of this idea?"
Tong Xiayue thought about it for a while and felt that this method was indeed a bit troublesome, but there was no better way at the moment, so she could only use it for the time being.
Tong Xiayue: "Let's put it this way first. We'll talk about other ways later. Try not to go into too much detail. Just keep it simple."
After the two of them discussed it, they went back and told the rest of the family. It was safer for everyone to speak in the same way about this matter.
Fortunately, the family members understood and thought that this method was feasible. It would not cause anyone to go to such a far place to inquire when they had nothing to do.
Tong Xiayue was also worried that her family would be unhappy because she paid Wang Xiaojun's mother a salary these two days, so she thought it would be better to talk about it while everyone was here.
Tong Xiayue: "Mom, Dad, brother, sisters-in-law, the reason I asked Wang Xiaojun's mom to help this time is because Wang Xiaojun has really helped me a lot recently and is very capable. Besides, he definitely can't explain it clearly every time he explains to the family. It's better to give him a job now. He won't dare to talk nonsense outside after getting the money. Otherwise, he won't be able to keep such an easy and profitable job.
Don't worry, sisters-in-law, I have other ideas later. You will have to work hard then. Now I am just Feeling the situation, I want to let you join after I get to know the surrounding situation. "
Zhang Cuihua was in a good mood when she heard Tong Xiayue say that they would be allowed to join later, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, what you said is true. We are all family, there is no need to think so much, just let go and do it, if you need our help, just say it directly, don't be embarrassed. "
Zhao Qian also echoed: "Yes, sister-in-law, don't think so much, just do your thing with peace of mind."
Seeing that the whole family can consider each other so much, I feel very warm in my heart.
On the other side, Sister-in-law Wang took the lunch box back. She wanted to save it for lunch the next day, but she couldn't help but put it directly into the pot to heat it up. Along with the hot steam came the rich aroma of meat.
Getting ready to go to bed; Little Tiger jumped out of bed when he smelled the aroma of meat and ran straight into the kitchen: "Mom, what did you make that smells so good!" He
had only had porridge in the evening and was not very hungry to begin with, but now he could not stand the smell!
Wang Dasao laughed and said, "You have a really sharp nose!"
Little Tiger approached the lunch box and sniffed it: "Of course, how could I not smell something delicious? What is this? You have something delicious and are keeping it, are you going to eat it secretly yourself!"
Wang Dasao was so angry that she laughed: "You kid, how can a mother eat it secretly? I'm going to heat it up and call you! Didn't you say that the food next door smells good these two days? Here, this is what the beautiful lady next door gave you."
After that, she called Hu Zi's father, and the three of them gathered around the lunch box and the mixed grain steamed buns that they didn't want to eat at night and gobbled them up.
Little Tiger: "Mom, this is so delicious! How come you can't make the same pig intestine taste like this?"
He will always remember the time when his mother said she would buy some meat to roast, but she bought pig intestines to save money, and she didn’t know how to cook them. In the end, they were stinky and no one dared to eat them. But she couldn’t bear to throw them away, so she had to eat them herself!
Aunt Wang said with embarrassment: “If you like it, I’ll ask the lady next door tomorrow to see how to roast it!”
