Seeing that Lin's father and mother and Pan Xiuxiu were busy in the kitchen, they also left the yard, intending to do more of the work they had just done.
It won't delay things if you finish it early. It's still bright outside now, so you can plane two more pieces of wood.
"I'll go help too."
Seeing this, Lu Yanzhou rolled up his sleeves and walked out of the yard.
Although he hadn't done carpentry for a long time, he still learned some from his father when he was a child, so it was no problem for him to help out.
Lin Yunchu nodded, turned around and walked towards the kitchen. There were many people here tonight, and Lin's mother and sister-in-law might not be able to handle it alone, so she went to the kitchen to help.
Lin Yunchu put the bones he bought today into a basket, took it to the yard, and hung it in the well. He would wait until tomorrow when he was free to make soup base and spicy hot pot for everyone.
Fortunately, I bought a lot of meat and vegetables at the market before coming back today, otherwise I was afraid that there wouldn’t be enough food for so many people tonight.
Lin Yunchu blanched the chopped pig's feet and put them into the pot to stew. Then he washed two handfuls of soybeans and put them in, covered the pot and stewed it over high heat.
"Everyone is tired today, so let's steam some rice tonight so they can have a full meal."
Mother Lin said to Lin Yunchu with a smile that her eldest brother and his family were also here today. They had been busy with carpentry work in the yard since early morning, and it took quite a bit of effort.
I can't skip this dinner. If I only eat porridge, I'll be hungry in the middle of the night. It's better to have steamed rice to fill me up.
Lin Yunchu nodded, thinking about making two more meat dishes later. The steamed rice had to be paired with meat, which would make it more delicious if it was rich in oil.
After hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lin's mother turned around and scooped up some rice and began to wash it. She looked down and seemed to feel that it was not enough, so she scooped another handful of rice into the pot.
Lin Yunchu put the pig intestines he bought today into the basin, grabbed two handfuls of flour, and began to wash them vigorously. This was what he saw when he bought meat today.
The family hasn't eaten pig intestines for a long time, and Lin Yunchu is a little craving for it. Today, there are many people at home, so he will make some stir-fried pig intestines later, which will definitely go well with rice.
On the other side, after Lin's mother put the rice in the pot and started steaming it, she washed a piece of pork belly and cut it into thin slices according to what Lin Yunchu had said.
Then cut the peppers on the side and put them in a bowl for later use.
Pan Xiuxiu lit the fire in the stove, then took the vegetables in the basket to the yard and washed them with well water.
The three of them were busy in the kitchen. A quarter of an hour later, Lin's father and the others in the yard had packed up and washed their hands.
The house was also filled with the rich aroma of food.
"Wow, there's so much rice and meat tonight, Auntie, this meal is so sumptuous."
Lin Changping saw the food on the table and his eyes widened.
The bowls were filled with white rice, piled high. I could have a full meal tonight.
Moreover, the dishes on the table were too rich, and they would be almost the same as if they were eaten in a restaurant.
The table was full of dishes: stir-fried pork intestines, stir-fried pork belly with chili peppers, stewed pig's feet, minced meat and tofu, cold potato noodles, hot and sour shredded potatoes, stir-fried lotus root, stir-fried bok choy, and mushroom and egg soup.
The table was filled with food, including meat, vegetables and soup. It was even more sumptuous than the banquets set up for other people's weddings.
Except for the Lin family, everyone's eyes widened. Lin Qingshan even frowned, with a hint of impatience in his eyes.
I secretly complained in my heart: How come my sister-in-law doesn't know how to live frugally? If they eat all the meat tonight, what will the Lin family eat tomorrow?
But seeing that there are so many young people in the room, it is not convenient to say it to their faces, but the expression on his face is not very good.
Father Lin was smiling at first, but when he turned around and saw his eldest brother's expression, he immediately came to his senses. He knew that his eldest brother probably felt that the meal they cooked in the evening was a bit too wasteful.
He knew that Lin Qingshan was also doing this for his family's good. He thought that everyone here tonight was his family, so there was no need to be so polite. Just eat whatever is enough to fill your stomach.
He didn't expect that the child's mother and two other children would prepare such a table full of delicious food, but he was happy.
It's a rare happy event tonight, and my eldest brother's family, Yan Zhou, and Xiu Xiu's father are all here. Let's eat a good meal to celebrate the Lin family buying a shop today.
This table of food is not a big deal, and the Lin family can still afford it.
However, seeing his eldest brother's dark face, Father Lin also forced a smile and explained to Lin Qingshan with a smile: "Brother... please sit down. These are not expensive dishes. We are happy today, but we will definitely not be like this tomorrow, okay?"
There was a flattering tone in his words. Father Lin still respected his elder brother very much. Tomorrow they would definitely not eat and drink so lavishly. Today they were just happy.
Seeing Lin Qingshan motionless, Lin's father was at a loss. He turned his head and winked at Lin Yunchu. The eldest brother loved Yunchu the most.
Yun Chulai's words of advice would definitely calm him down. His daughter's words would be more effective than his own.
Seeing Lin's father looking at him for help, Lin Yunchu couldn't help but laugh.
Dad's usual authority is useless when he meets my uncle, but the meal is already prepared tonight, so how can it be thrown away?
Lin Yunchu cleared his throat, poured a bowl of egg soup, and placed it on the dining table in front of Lin Qingshan. He smiled at him and said, "Uncle, please sit down quickly. My mother, sister-in-law, and I have been standing and cooking for a long time and are a little hungry."
As soon as the words fell, Lin Qingshan's eyes flickered slightly, and his expression softened a little. Lin Yunchu continued:
"This pork intestine was given to me by the butcher, and the pig's feet were even discounted. This little bit of meat and tofu didn't cost much. The rest are all homemade dishes, so it really didn't cost much. Don't worry."
Lin Yunchu pointed at the food on the table and started to list it, saying that it was all cheap. She knew that her uncle was stingy with the money.
Although my uncle's family is doing much better now, he is still the same as before and cannot stand extravagance and waste.
Although the Lin family is living better and better now, they just spent fifty taels of silver to buy a shop in the town today. The family spent such a large amount of money all at once.
Uncle definitely doesn't want them to be too extravagant. There's still a long way to go, so they should plan their life carefully.
Lin Yunchu knew that Lin Qingshan was doing this for the good of their family, so she was not angry at him for humiliating her. Instead, she felt a little touched.
When he looked at Lin Qingshan, there was more gratitude in his eyes.
Hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lin Qingshan could no longer keep a straight face and glared at her unhappily. This kid is really something. I really can't argue with her.
