Walking outside the door of the main room, Yue Youting stopped and cheered for herself. After a while, she walked into the main room with light steps: "Master, mother asked me to bring some tea." Yingti tactfully The sound is a bit moving.
However, Yue Dafu did not pay attention to this, and nodded slightly: "Hurry up and serve tea to the guests."
Yue Youting served tea to Yue Dafu first, and then served tea to her two brothers and Zhou Junpeng: "Master, please use tea."
Zhou Junpeng smiled very gently: "You have Laoyue girl." The hand that took the teacup did not know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and touched Nextyue Youting's tender green weed. Yue Youting's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, and a shy blush appeared on her face, but the room was dimly lit, and others couldn't see anything.
After serving the tea, Yue Youting, an unmarried girl, naturally wouldn't have the cheek to stay in the main room with an unmarried man, so she turned her head three times, looked at her shyly and timidly, and kept looking at herself with fiery eyes. Zhou Junpeng left the main room reluctantly. The people of the Yue family were talking, but no one noticed what happened to the two of them.
Seeing that Yue Youting was gone, Zhou Junpeng returned to his appearance as a gentleman. He smiled and told Yue Wentao about interesting things in the academy to Yue Dafu, as if the person who looked at Yue Youting with a very explicit look just now did not. Not his average.
Besides, Yue Youting left the main room and returned to the kitchen with her plate blushing. Seeing her daughter's blushing face, Xiao Chen was overjoyed, but she didn't care whether her hands were dirty or not, so she hurriedly greeted her: "How is it? Did you see the two young masters?"
Yue Youting disgustedly used a plate to separate Xiao Chen's outstretched hand: "Mother, this is my new clothes!"
"You girl, you're Aijiao!" Xiao Chen was not angry after being blocked for a while, she was anxious to know about her daughter entering the main room to deliver tea: "Tell my mother, I just looked at it from a distance, Dress well, but I can't see what it looks like."
Yue Youting thought about the gentle and jade-like son who had just touched her fingertips inadvertently, her face turned red involuntarily: "Mother! What are you going to say!"
No matter what, Xiao Chen was also a visitor, so she naturally saw that her daughter was shy, and she felt that the matter was half over, she clapped her hands happily, and then asked, "Have those two young masters talked to you? "
"Well, Zhou Gongzi is gentle and polite, and thanked me." Thinking of that gentle and polite smiling face, Yue Youting's whole heart has fallen into it: "Zhou Gongzi, excellent." After saying that, she turned her head and ran away. Back to the east wing.
Seeing her daughter's attitude, Xiao Chen knew that her daughter was intentional. She stood happily in the kitchen, eager to use all her powers to cook a good meal for her future uncle.

Yuechanghong came quickly. Just as the food of Yuejia was on the table, Yuechanglu stopped the ox cart outside, and the mother and daughter of Yuechanghong, wrapped in quilts, slapped all the snowflakes on their bodies. Only then did he open the door of Yue's house with a smile. Compared with Ge Liuer who is behind Yue Changhong and Yue Youting, who is weak Liu Fufeng, she is a somewhat rounded girl, not tall, with big round eyes set in her fleshy face, which looks very annoying. happiness.
Although she didn't know her mother's intentions, before going out, Yue Changhong also picked up her daughter according to the old Chen's words: she was wearing a half-new pink jacket, and Ge Liuer was still at the sleeves and hem. I embroidered a few goose-yellow flower patterns, and from a distance, there is a bit of a girl's unique charm in it.
Hearing the movement outside, Mrs. Chen hurriedly came out to greet her, seeing that her daughter and granddaughter were all dressed up, and then nodded with satisfaction: "Today's house is killing the New Year pig, and I have come to the distinguished guests, and you will come in with me to see the distinguished guests first. Say it again."
As soon as she heard that a distinguished guest was coming to her family, Yue Changhong couldn't help but feel a little nervous: "Mother! What kind of distinguished guest has come to my house?" Yue Changhong also knew that her family did not know any dignitaries, so she suddenly said that there was a distinguished guest coming, which was a bit strange. Can't believe it.
"It's Brother Wen Tao's classmates in the academy, the one surnamed Zhou is the distant nephew of the county master's wife, and the other surnamed Liu is the family who opened a silk and satin village in the county town!" Old Chen whispered with a smile that could not see his teeth. Let her daughter know that this is what she just found out.
When she heard that it was the nephew of the county master, Yuechang's red eyes brightened: "Really?" Ge Liuer is almost fourteen, and now it is time to look for her husband's family. Getting married again is.
"Mother can still coax you?" Although the old Chen is very patriarchal to his granddaughters, but he loves his only daughter like a pearl, and naturally he will follow her if there is anything good. : "The two young masters are also the right age, otherwise I can't urge your second brother to pick you up!"
The mother and daughter were thinking as they walked, Ge Liuer, who was following behind them, was also when the girl's heart was sprouting, her face blushed, her head bowed shyly, and she followed Yue Changhong with small steps without saying a word.
***
Although the snow had stopped, it was still cold outside. The Yue family set up three tables in the hall of the main room for this pig-killing meal. Among them, the village relatives and the men who came to help the pig-killers sit at one table. Brother Tao has a table with two distinguished guests and a table with the female family members.
When Yue Changhong entered, the main room was already full of people, and Yue Changhong smiled warmly: "It's better that I came earlier than I came by coincidence!"
"That is to say, my sister Changhong has a heart, and this big snowy Tianer will come back to see her parents! It's not freezing on the road!" Xiao Chen smiled kindly, but she was a little resentful in her heart. This dead old woman is really thinking about everything. Her daughter, Changhong this month is also a nuisance, and she has to snatch her even when she sees other people!
"It's okay to come back and see your parents. Sister-in-law, don't be too busy. I heard from my mother that today's dishes are all made by you, sister-in-law. It's better to sit and rest for a while!" Yue Changhong did not show any traces He wrenched away Xiao Chen's hand, his eyes twitched, and he looked around at everyone in the room. Sure enough, he saw two young sons and brothers who were dressed incompatible with the Yue family, so he left with a smile. In the past: "These two brothers are born from each other, which one is the descendant of?"
Zhou Junpeng stood up very politely and gave a scholar's salute: "Hello, aunt of the Yue family, Zhou Junpeng is the next generation."
Looking at Zhou Junpeng with handsome eyebrows, Yue Changhong couldn't help but feel that her mother-in-law was looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looked at her son-in-law, the more satisfied she became, and she laughed very warmly: "Hello, Mr. Zhou, our family is in a remote area. You can say whatever you want, Wen Tao. You brothers must not neglect the guests!"
Seeing her attitude as if she was her own, Xiao Chen silently "cut", disdainful of Yue Changhong's flirtatious face, and she forgot how she made Yue You. Ting came out to show her face.
Seeing that Ge Liuer standing behind Yue Changhong was dressed very nicely, several women who knew the person's affairs showed a clear smile, and a woman who was close to Xiao Chen whispered to her: " What's the matter with your sister-in-law? Why did you bring your daughter here?"
With a stiff smile on Xiao Chen's face, she whispered through gritted teeth: "What else can I do? It's not my mother's good deed! After seeing a good one, she eagerly called her daughter to come, and she didn't even think about her own home. And granddaughter!"
When the woman heard this, she frowned and replied, "You are still her own niece. Why is your mother so obsessed with the married daughter? It's really partial!"
The men in the main room who were toasting and persuading me to drink were very lively. The two of them were holding the pork in the basin quickly and ruthlessly, and complaining in a low voice, but no one else could hear them.
The main room was lively, but nothing happened to the Young Jin sisters. When the dishes were just ready, Mr. Chen directly fished most of the vegetables with meat into the vegetable bowl that was served on the table in the main room. Only some minced meat, pig water, and potatoes were left. , Chinese cabbage in the pot: "Today, a distinguished guest is coming, you are not allowed to go in and shame!"
The old Chen family and the rest of the Yue family felt that it was a very respectable thing to be able to go to the main room for dinner today. For example, there was a woman who couldn't be served, and she was so angry that she refused to eat. Yue Changlu coaxed for a long time, until the old Chen sent You Jin to ask him to go to dinner, and only left Wan Niang, who was very angry, in the room alone.
But the sisters of Youjin were happy and relaxed. They happily carried a few bowls of multigrain rice and two small pots of steaming vegetables, and trotted back to the west wing. The mother and daughter eight sat on the kang outside, hot. Lively ate a full meal.
And Wan Niang, who was separated by a wall, heard the laughter and laughter next door, but only thought that they could ridicule themselves and wipe away the tears from the corners of their eyes: "You two want to see my jokes, one day I will call you little boys. What a beautiful girl!" Cursing in a low voice, Yuan wished to smash all the food on the table, but she smelled the smell of meat after she hadn't eaten anything in the morning, so she brought the bowl unconsciously, and slapped it three times on the ground. Finished.
Naturally, although the Young Jin sisters could not enter the main room to eat at the table, it was still their job to wash the dishes. Half an hour after the meal in the west wing, You Luo and You Silk had already been coaxed to fall asleep. Only then did the voice of Yue Wenwei, who was sent to be cleaned up, came from outside: "Yue Youjin! Hurry up! Get out to work!"
He gently covered the quilts for a few younger sisters, and asked You Yin to stay at home to watch, while You Jin went to the main room alone, and said respectfully, "Master, milk, I'll clean it up." In front of outsiders, the young Kim is also a very sensible and very polite child.
Sure enough, a clan aunt who came to help cook the pig-killing dishes smiled and said to the old Chen: "Old aunt is very lucky, the woman from the second family is only so old, and she is so diligent and capable, it can be seen that she is an old woman. Auntie will teach children!"
The few women present were also very talented. The room was full of rough men from the village. Where would I have seen Yue Youting and Ge Liuer come to dinner on weekdays? Who can't see what the purpose of the old Chen is? The folks in the villages, to do face for the old Chen family, say a few good things, but it's just a matter of mouth, but it's a good thing, they are still willing to do it.
Old Chen is also a very good-natured person. When others praise her like this in front of everyone's eyes, she is also happy, but she still smiles lightly on her face: "It's just a country girl, where is it worth your kindness? Compliment her?"
Young Jin didn't even bother to watch such a scene of emptiness and condescension, so he just picked up the dishes that he had eaten one by one and put them in the big wooden basin, and then lifted them up with both hands and went out.
