Li Mo glanced at Li Yan, "Second Brother, don't say that, Man'er will teach you."
Man'er? Li Yan was stunned, "Since when did Big Brother get so close to that girl?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Li Mo was embarrassed, and looked at Li Man in a panic. She was thin-skinned, and she was afraid that she would not be able to stop her second brother from joking.
However, Li Man deliberately wanted to anger Li Yan, "Brother, it's fine." She only thought Li Yan's words were pleasing to her ears.
So gentle and considerate to big brother? Li Yan's eyes were really cold, and he looked at Li Man coolly, "Man'er, she really sounds better than a girl."
Li Man doesn't look at him, he can make sarcastic remarks as he likes, but with Li Mo around, how dare he fail
"Second brother." Sure enough, Li Mo's face darkened, a little displeased with Li Yan's eccentricity, "You don't usually talk like this."
If that girl could treat herself like elder brother, he would naturally not be like this, "Oh, elder brother, you know, I am stupid and can't speak, or, Mrs. Man'er, can you teach me more? Guo"
Li Man ignored him, and took a branch to write and draw in the sand table.
Li Mo looked at Li Yan helplessly, if the second brother was stupid, no one else in the family would be able to speak.
"Brother, what are you looking at me for?" Li Yan was still pretending to be confused, while looking at Li Man, saw that she was concentrating on drawing something in the sand table, and looked down curiously. Just as the branches were put away, a wretched pig's head was printed on the sand table, and the word 'Li Yan' was written beside it by name.
Suddenly, Li Yan's handsome face blushed, because he was angry.
But at this time, Xiao Wu, who had been watching for a long time, still asked in doubt, "Sister, is this the second brother?" He looked at the two words that were the name of the second brother.
Li Man shrugged her eyebrows, neither admitting nor denying it.
Li Mo also hurriedly looked at the sand table. When he saw the pig's head, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitched, and he glanced at Li Yan sympathetically.
Li Yan looked at Li Man with a cool smile, gritted his teeth and said, "You would think so?"
"Oh." Li Man snorted expressionlessly, "I forgot, the pigs forgot to feed this morning, no wonder they barked so much."
After speaking, he dropped the branch and ran away.
Li Yan watched her back disappearing through the door viciously, how dare this girl call him a pig
"Second brother." Li Mo couldn't help laughing, pointing at the pig's head in the sand table and said, "Man'er is really good, not only can write, but also draw, look at what this pig's head drew, it's better than the one in the pigsty..."
"Big brother." Strange, how could big brother say these words? Li Yan glared at Li Mo, "I still have work to do, so let's go first."
"Oh." Before Li Mo finished his instructions, he had already left in a huff. He hurriedly told Xiao Wu, "Follow me and have a look." He was afraid that Li Yan would settle accounts with Li Man when he went out.
"You can see it from here." Xiao Wu pushed open the small wooden window and looked towards the backyard. He saw Li Man carrying a bucket of swill to the side of the pigsty, bent down and poured the swill into the pig trough, and then used Fiddled with the pigsty a few times, "Don't snatch it, Xiao Hei, if you dare to snatch the food again, I'll lock you up and let you eat the leftovers after Xiao Hua finishes eating."
Li Mo also wanted to take a look at it, but when he heard Li Man's usual yelling at the two little pigs, he couldn't help laughing, and involuntarily the image of her being angry and annoyed by the pigsty appeared in his mind. Cute pictures come.
Li Yan didn't go to Li Man to settle the score. He knew that his elder brother must be staring at him at the window. In fact, he wasn't really annoyed. Instead, he felt that the relationship between that girl and him had improved. Can you draw him
However, even if it is a pig head, he should be the most handsome pig head.
—
After the work of Little Pig and Chicken, Li Man taught Xiao Wu another poem, and he would read it to his elder brother when he got home. She cleaned the yard by herself. It rained two days ago, the ground was muddy, and there was mud everywhere , she wants to clean up these things.
Just as he was sweeping most of the time, he was about to clear the garbage out of the yard first. When he raised his eyes, he saw three women entering the yard.
One of them was older, about forty years old, wearing almost new azure-colored clothes and pants, his hair was combed meticulously, his eyes were sharp, and he looked very sharp and sharp.
Behind her were two women in their twenties, the woman in moon-white clothes, the woman with fair and soft face, and the woman in apricot-yellow clothes, with a big frame, dark face, long hands and long feet, she could be seen as a very capable peasant woman.
"Who are you looking for?" Li Man threw down the broom and went to meet her.
The three women were also slightly taken aback when they saw Li Man, and afterward, they all looked at her with different eyes.
"Are you the woman bought by Da Lang?" The older woman asked first, and after looking at Li Man, she curled her lips in disdain, and said softly to the fair woman next to her, "I guess that's the way it is. Useless goods."
"Eldest sister." The white and clean woman gave the older woman a slight glance, then walked towards Li Man, then took her hand, and asked softly, "Is Xiao Wu at home? I'm his sister-in-law. This is his elder sister-in-law." .”
Sister? Auntie? This is the first time I have heard of it, Li Man hurriedly said, "Big brother and Xiao Wu are both in the house, please come inside."
As she spoke, she led the way.
Inside, it seemed that they heard voices, and Xiao Wu had already run out, and when he saw someone coming, he rushed over excitedly, called "Sister-in-law", but threw himself into the arms of Auntie.
The older woman's face suddenly softened a lot, and she held Xiao Wu's face and smiled, "Oh, auntie, look, Tang, our Xiao Wu's face has grown flesh, and this head seems to have grown too. Vanilla, Don't you think so?"
"Yes, it's grown." The fair woman also came over, rubbed Xiao Wu's head lovingly, and said with a smile.
Li Man watched from the side, she was still a little nervous because of the arrival of strangers just now, now, seeing how these two aunts dote on Xiao Wu, she was also happy in her heart, and greeted attentively, "Auntie, Auntie, please sit in the room. "
"Hmph." The aunt snorted coldly without giving her a good face.
Li Man paused, what did she say wrong
The sister-in-law quickly came over and took Li Man's hand, "Come on, let's go into the house, by the way, isn't Dalang not working today?" It's really strange to be at home at this time.
"He's resting these two days." Li Man replied vaguely.
And Li Mo heard that the two aunts were coming, and he got off the kang happily, and walked to the door to pick him up, "Guy, why are you here?"
"What's the matter? You can't come." The aunt looked at Li Mo coldly, "I know that your brothers are all grown up, and your wings are hardened. My aunt, you have already left the sky."
As soon as Li Mo heard it, he knew she was angry, and he also knew what it was, he just smiled and said, "How can it be, aunt, let's go into the house, are you tired on the road?"
The aunt didn't look at him, she just held Xiao Wu's hand, entered the room first, looked around as soon as she entered the room, frowned and said, "Why does it smell like medicine, Da Lang, are you sick?"
Li Mo was wearing clothes, no injuries could be seen, and replied, "Well, I accidentally scratched my skin a few days ago, and it's almost healed."
Seeing that he was really fine, the aunt was relieved, sitting on the kang, she didn't forget to rebuke, "I'm not talking about you, Da Lang, as the eldest of the family, you should also think more about your younger brothers. "
Li Mo stood aside, laughing and saying nothing.
The sister-in-law glanced at him and said, "Sister, Dalang is still ill, what can't be said in the future?"
"In the future?" Auntie was immediately annoyed by this sentence, "This daughter-in-law has already married into the family, so what's the future? Dalang, you are not honest about this matter. Tell me, what does Lotus have? Oh no?"
As she spoke, she pointed to the black-faced woman who followed.
It was only then that Li Man noticed her, and she looked at Li Man from time to time, with jealousy and disdain in her eyes. When the aunt pulled her out by name, she raised her head proudly , looked at Li Man disdainfully.
My aunt continued, "Don't tell me what you know. She looks upright and works hard and neatly. My aunt also thinks about you. Dalang, don't you think about it. You are a family with five bachelors. What do you have in your family? You are old, you say, what do you buy such a woman for? Don't talk about spending money, look at her, does she seem capable?"
The smile on Li Mo's face gradually froze. He knew that Auntie had a straight temper, but Man'er was in the room. It was too much for her to point at him and say these words, "Auntie, there is nothing wrong with this matter." It's my fault to discuss with you. You've worked hard all the way, take a break first, and I'll pour you some water."
As he said that, he went out and called Li Man, "Man'er, the boiling water is gone, help me boil some."
"Yeah." Li Man could understand the words now, and knew that her aunt was targeting her, so she hurriedly followed Li Mo and wanted to slip away first.
Unexpectedly, the aunt wanted to praise the lotus, so she said, "Boil the water, what a big deal, lotus, you go."
"Hey." He Hua heard the words, as if she had been beaten with chicken blood, she rushed over with her head high and her chest high, and she pushed Li Man away, walked to Li Mo's side, and said with a smile, "Da Lang, let me do it."
Li Mo frowned, supported Li Man's arm, and said to her in a deep voice, "Man'er is fine."
"It's okay." He Hua still stared at Li Mo with a smile, and said, "I haven't seen him for more than half a year, and he looks better. Even if I talk to her with a cold face, it still makes people's hearts flutter.
Li Mo paused, he was extremely disgusted by the woman's eyes, and said directly, "Go back and sit down, the kitchen is small and can't accommodate too many people."
He Hua was taken aback for a moment, and just wanted to say that it was okay, but the aunt saw Li Mo's displeasure, so she could only say, "He Hua, Da Lang is considerate of you. You have worked so hard all the way, so you can come back and sit down for a while. , let them go."
"En." Hearing this, He Hua happily went back to the house again.
Li Mo was helpless and looked at Li Man apologetically.
Li Man didn't think much of it. Since ancient times, her mother-in-law has always made things difficult for her daughter-in-law. Li Mo's parents are both deceased. Naturally, the eldest aunt will not let her go so easily.
Uh, thinking too much, instinctively, her little face flushed with shame, and before Li Mo noticed, she hurriedly lowered her head and hurried to the kitchen.
Li Mo also thought she was annoyed, and hurriedly followed her to the kitchen, saw that she was really scooping water into the cauldron, and said, "Don't be too busy, Xiao Wu just boiled the water in the morning, and it hasn't been touched yet."
Li Man paused with her hands, and looked up at him, "Then—" Was asking her to come over to boil the water purely to rescue her
"There are some things that I haven't had time to tell you. I couldn't understand them for a while today. Auntie is not a bad-hearted person, but she is a little talkative and chatters. Don't take what she says." Li Mo said , I spoke in a hurry, obviously because I was afraid that she would really care about her.
Li Man giggled, "You asked me out just to tell me this? I don't mind."
It's fine if you don't mind, Li Mo scratched his head foolishly, then smirked, "I'm overthinking."
"Then you bring this water?" The aunt in the room didn't like her, and she didn't want to make fun of herself.
"Yeah." Seeing that she really didn't care, Li Mo was finally completely relieved, smiled and poured two bowls of water from the pot, and brought them to the east room.
In the east room, the eldest aunt was holding some snacks, telling Xiao Wu what to say, for example, how much did it cost to buy Li Man? How did this woman behave after she arrived at Li's house? Did she instigate discord between their brothers
Xiao Wu was eating snacks, and most of the questions just shook her head, saying that she didn't know, and asked her to ask her eldest brother. As for the last question, she said that my sister is very good, and except for himself, all brothers like her very much.
When Li Mo came in, he happened to hear Xiao Wu complimenting Li Man, and then, the aunt snorted very disdainfully, "Let me tell you, it's another foxy girl who has only been here for a few days? The souls of the brothers are gone."
"Sister." Vanilla hurriedly winked at her eldest sister, Li Xiangyu.
Li Xiangyu glared at her dissatisfied, "You, you know how to pretend to be a good person, and you will be worthless all your life."
Li Xiangcao blushed and did not argue again.
Li Mo wanted to pretend that he didn't hear it, but when he saw that his aunt was in a row with his sister-in-law, he felt a little sorry, so he quickly brought water and handed it to her, "Auntie, come, drink some water."
Then, another bowl was given to my sister-in-law.
Li Xiangyu looked at Li Mo with the bowl in her hand, "Where's the lotus one? She was thirsty on the way, why don't you bring her a bowl of water?"
"Lotus, I'll give it to you, I'm not thirsty." The sister-in-law hurriedly made a rescue and handed her water to the lotus.
The lotus didn't pick it up, so he just grinned silly and said, "Gu, I'm not thirsty."
Li Xiangyu gave her a hard look, "Why aren't you thirsty anymore? You didn't call me on the way."
Lotus was a little wronged all of a sudden, but she didn't dare to talk back.
Li Mo stood by and didn't say anything.
Li Xiangyu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Li Mo, "Where is your mother-in-law? Why did she disappear when I came? I am a tiger, can I eat her?"
"Why do you think so?" Li Mo said, "She is preparing lunch in the kitchen. It's almost noon, and you should be hungry too."
"Really? Ready for lunch?" Li Xiangyu drank his saliva, got up, and winked at Hehua, "Take your things, go, and go to the kitchen."
"Auntie, you just came, the work in the kitchen—"
"I'm not going to cook, or I brought two dishes for your mother-in-law to cook." Li Xiangyu interrupted Li Mo's words, and walked out with lotus flowers. Li Mo followed, but she stopped her, "You and What are you doing here? The kitchen is only that big, not to mention that a big man is in the kitchen, it's outrageous."
Li Xiangcao tugged at Li Mo's arm, and blinked at him comfortingly, "Don't worry, it's fine."
Li Mo had no choice but to give up, and then, after they entered the kitchen, he called Xiao Wu and asked him to keep an eye on them.
Xiao Wu is so clever, he doesn't need to tell his elder brother about such things, he knows how to do it.
—
After Li Mo delivered the water, Li Man sat on the small stool alone, resting her chin and worrying. When guests came to the house, she should make a good meal after all. However, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Moreover, there is not even a little bit of meat.
"Hey, are you cooking or hiding away?" Li Xiangyu couldn't help mocking Li Man as soon as she came in.
Li Man got up, looked at the three people who came in suspiciously, and asked politely, "Auntie, why don't you rest in the house?" Didn't the one who rushed to the kitchen to look for her come
"Oh, I'm afraid the family won't have time to prepare it, so we brought two more dishes, just in time, you can add them at noon." Li Xiangcao said with a smile.
"Oh." That's good, she was worried about having nothing to eat.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Xiangcao finished speaking, He Hua handed the vegetable basket to her, and when the cover was lifted off, it was half a fat pig's head. Li Man screamed in fright and closed her eyes.
"Lotus, you—"
Before Li Xiangcao finished her reprimand, Li Mo rushed in when she heard the cry, "What's wrong?"
"What are you doing here?" Li Xiangyu looked at Li Mo impatiently, and then scolded Li Man, "I was thinking that your brother likes to eat pork head meat, so I went to the market early in the morning to buy such a little bit, who would have thought that, you Is this bitch going to be scared like this?"
Li Mo stared coldly at the bloody pig's head, then at Li Man with a pale face, and immediately understood what was going on, walked over, stood in front of Li Man, and said politely but distantly to Li Xiangyu, "Let auntie bother you, Man'er doesn't know how to burn pig's head meat, so let Lotus do it."
He Hua was worried that he would not have a chance to show off, and when he heard what he said, she was overjoyed, "Okay, I'm going right now."
Li Xiangyu was still dissatisfied, staring at Li Man, "You can't even make a pig's head, so what will you do?"
"Sister, if you're not a chef in a restaurant, who must know how to do this? I don't know how either." Li Xiangcao said.
Li Xiangyu glared at his younger sister, and cursed secretly, "They all eat the inside and the outside, and they raised you so big for nothing."
After finishing speaking, go out and guide the lotus.
Li Xiangcao looked at Li Man apologetically, "I made you laugh."
Li Man shook her head, "It's okay, I'll pick and order some food. It's not enough to just eat pork head meat, it's better to have a combination of meat and vegetables." Although her voice was not very loud, it was enough for Li Xiangyu who had just stepped out of the threshold to hear.
Sure enough, Li Xiangyu paused, turned her head and gave Li Man a cold look.
Li Man just grinned at her, Li Xiangyu was taken aback by her charming appearance.
.
In terms of appearance, Li Man is many times stronger than the lotus she brought.
—
When someone cooks pork head meat, Li Man saves a lot of trouble. She goes to the vegetable garden and picks two handfuls of beans, three small cucumbers, and a small basket of vegetables. Li Mo washes them with water, and she starts to fry them.
Xiao Wu was lighting the fire below, and she was in charge of frying on top.
Vegetarian dishes are easy to stir-fry. After a while, the small green vegetables are fried and served in a small plate. The crisp and tender color is very delicious.
When preparing to fry beans, Li Xiangyu suddenly stood beside her, and Li Man's heart skipped a beat, "Auntie."
"You fire you." Li Xiangyu ordered with a cold face.
"Oh." Li Man stuck out her tongue secretly, seeing that the cauldron was red hot again, she hurriedly poured some oil into the pot.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiangyu was provoked again. She snatched the oil jar from Li Man's hand, filled it with a spatula, and yelled, "Are you cooking or eating oil? You don’t need money for this oil. What a prodigal.”
Li Man was stunned to the side, she didn't pour too much, watching Li Xiangyu filled most of the sesame oil, the bottom of the pot was almost invisible, she really couldn't laugh or cry, she couldn't help but eat the oil.
"What are you still standing there for? Pour the vegetables, wait until the pot is fried?" Li Xiangyu took the oil jar away and shouted at Li Man again.
Li Man was also a little annoyed, but she thought that she was an elder anyway, so she should give way, besides, Li Mo had already greeted her like that, "Yes." She snorted lightly, poured the beans Into the pot, stir fry carefully.
Seeing that her cooking posture was indeed decent, Li Xiangyu snorted coldly and said nothing.
But when Li Man put the salt, she spoke again, "Wait a minute."
Then, he snatched the salt jar from her hand, dug a little with a spoon and sprinkled it into the pot, "This is enough, salt is also bought with money."
Li Man was speechless, and really wanted to say, then there is no need to eat rice, rice and noodles will cost money.
"Auntie." Xiao Wu got up at this moment, and said dissatisfiedly to Li Xiangyu, "It's not good if the food is too weak."
