Views:

Everyone enjoyed this lunch, even Mrs. Yang Xu Ranyun and others who hated Su Nuannuan had to admit that this woman's food was indeed unique and extremely delicious. I heard from her that the fried eel noodles with shrimp are made from the eels produced in the rice fields. Every year when the crabs are delivered to Zhuangzi in the Mid-Autumn Festival, a few hairy crabs will be mixed with them. Usually they are fed chickens and ducks. Eat less, how can it be so delicious? And this mustard, how do you make it? How can it be so delicious and refreshing? Radishes and bamboo shoots can also produce this taste? Tea eggs are even more amazing. Ordinary eggs, which day will the masters at the dinner table not eat one or two in the morning? The common people regard it as a good thing, but if they eat it often, it’s just like that. Except for a faint aroma, it has no taste. It turns out that it can be cooked with seasoning. What do people drink in the kitchen? But those tea leaves, can they cook such delicious food? If you use the good tea at home, what should it taste like

But delicious food is delicious, and everyone still needs to pay attention to their image. Just watching Su Nuannuan eat and drink with gusto without changing his face, the chopsticks rained like rain, and the masters of the table went up from the old lady to Aunt Jiang and Aunt Jing, and they unknowingly put down their usual demeanor , kept sending noodles and side dishes to his mouth, savoring all kinds of flavors secretly, but no one cared about watching other people's jokes.

The female relatives in the room did not drink alcohol, but the old lady Fang was happy, so she asked Qiuling to bring some pots of sweet-scented osmanthus honey for everyone to enjoy. After drinking and eating, the maids and women brought tea and removed the remnants of the seats, then Mrs. Fang sat down half-lying on the couch, and said with a smile: "After all these years, I have never had such a good time." I had a meal. If Nuan Nuan didn't stop me, I would have to eat three bowls today."

Xu Ranyun laughed quickly and said, "Old lady, I think it's fortunate that grandma stopped you, otherwise, three big bowls? You must be full."

Mrs. Fang smiled and said: "It's the truth. I only hate my small appetite and can't eat so much. Otherwise, I am so old. But I don't pay attention to my figure and waist. Even if I eat to become a big fat man, that's not enough. It’s worth it. Nuan Nuan, please tell me quickly. The squeezed mustard, right? How is it made? And the tea eggs, ouch, it turns out that eggs can make such a taste, I ate three I haven't eaten enough, but it's a pity that it's gone."

Su Nuannuan smiled and said: "Don't worry, old lady. I have already taught the daughter-in-law of Xue's family who is in charge of the kitchen to make this tea egg. She will make it when the time comes. Are you afraid that I will not be filial to your old man? As for the pickled mustard, I am very simple. , It’s just radish and bamboo shoots that are seasoned and marinated until autumn. There are enoki mushrooms, day lily, fungus or pimple vegetables, etc. Those are really good things for pickling mustard mustard. By the way, there are also cucumbers. Today I asked Xue’s daughter-in-law to buy that finger-sized cucumber twist for me, she said that such a small cucumber in the market can’t be sold at a high price, but she didn’t know that this pickled cucumber is also very refreshing.”

The old lady Fang said: "Is that so? I like to eat pickled radishes, cucumber sticks and so on. When you do it later, you have to honor me no matter what."

Su Nuannuan said with a smile: "Okay, my daughter-in-law has written it down."

"Don't forget it when the time comes. I think your memory is not very good sometimes. I said that the white meat is delicious, but I didn't see you give it to me again." Mrs. Fang snorted coldly, and said curiously: " By the way, how is your meat made? Why is the fat and lean meat so delicious? I eat it very differently from other pork."

Su Nuannuan smiled and said: "Of course it's different. It's made from a mixture of pork and pig's trotters. According to our master, the fat meat is not greasy and the lean meat is not firewood. This is not the characteristic of pig's trotters." ?”

Everyone who said a word laughed, and before the laughter stopped, someone said outside the door: "Grandma, the kitchen sent someone to bring the cat."

"Yo, they move fast." Su Nuannuan hurriedly stood up and went to the door, and turned back holding a black and white tabby cat after a while.

Everyone in the hall looked at it in surprise, wondering why Su Nuannuan brought her cat here. Only two people saw this cat, and their expressions couldn't help changing drastically. One was Shi Yurou, who had just heard her little girl After talking about what happened, I was angry and hated at this time, but there was nothing I could do. The other one is naturally the cowardly second girl Duan Xinqi. At this time, seeing her beloved cat in Su Nuannuan's arms, she couldn't help but screamed.

The sound was very abrupt, and it was too late for the little girl to cover her mouth. Mrs. Fang took a look at her, and Liu Min said, "What's wrong with the chess girl? What's your name? It scared me."

Aunt Lin's complexion changed slightly, she hastily tugged at her daughter's sleeve, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Min, this child also raised a cat, but it was lost later, that's why he barks out when he sees Grandma's cat." After finishing speaking Then he said to his daughter: "Seeing that you are reckless and have no rules, why don't you apologize to your wife?"

Liu Min quickly smiled and said, "Forget it, what's the big deal? Do you need to apologize?" After speaking, she turned to Su Nuan Nuan and said, "Is this Nuan Nuan your cat?"

Su Nuannuan smiled and said: "No, when I left the kitchen just now, this beast jumped into my arms by itself. As soon as I saw it, I felt like it. Everyone, doesn't it have the same spirit as me? But the eyes It was also frightening and helpless, which reminded me of the time when I first went to Meiyuelou. It was raised in Meiyuelou, and Xue's wife just cleaned it up. I just took this opportunity to recognize it for everyone, and everyone will know it is my cat in the future. For the sake of the meal, at least let it go."

This remark included both soft and hard demonstrations and bitterness, and the old lady Fang nodded secretly. Mrs. Yang and Xu Ranyun were all embarrassed, Shi Yurou was so angry that her chest couldn't stop rising and falling, but she didn't know what to say. There was silence in the hall for a while.

Su Nuannuan looked at everyone's expressions coldly, and wondered to myself, is my meal so delicious? If I don't beat you, you still think I'm easy to bully. They are all old ladies, threatening me with seafood, hum! No matter what, I have to make you feel uncomfortable for a while.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Mrs. Fang laughingly said: "Nuannuan's words are correct. You went to Meiyuelou that day, but now that you think about it, Xuan'er was reckless. I persuaded him at that time Twice, but the old lady was old and had no prestige, and that little bastard refused to listen to me, which caused you to suffer a lot. Although you have made it through now, you three women, in such a remote place , I am worried after all, it is better to move back."

Su Nuannuan almost spat out a mouthful of blood, looked at the old lady Fang with bad eyes, and thought to herself that this old lady is really a genius, right? As soon as I said that, you hit the snake with the stick? It's too embarrassing to say that you are old and have no prestige. Opening your eyes and telling nonsense is not the way to say it. You will be struck by lightning. It's over, it's over, what should I do? I fell into the pit by accident, that scumbag Duan Tingxuan's skill is comparable to that of this old goblin, and he was dumped more than eight blocks away. What should I do

His mind was spinning, but he didn't think of a good way, but this matter is just a shame, isn't Mrs. Fang relying on her old face to sell her old? So Su Nuannuan also smiled bitterly, and complained: "The old lady's kindness, my granddaughter-in-law appreciates it. It's just that our master was so unfeeling that day, and the knot in my granddaughter-in-law's heart is not so easy to untie. Instead of letting me go back Going to the backyard, touching the scenery, thinking of the old grievances from time to time, why not just let me live freely in Meiyuelou."

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of small discussions in the hall. The old lady Fang was also stunned, looking at Su Nuannuan in disbelief, she secretly thought evil, this is really evil. The old woman has given up on her old face, this evildoer is really embarrassed to refuse. It's no wonder that someone as smart as Xuan'er can't defeat the enemy. How can such an evildoer be so easy to subdue? Dear grandson, grandma can only help you so far. In the future, you have to find a way by yourself. Go hard, grandma will support you strongly. Well, the shrimp fried eel noodles are really delicious. I wonder if there are any in the kitchen? If there is any leftover, I have to ask Qiu Ling to bring it back for me to hide, otherwise when Xuan'er comes back, there will be no soup left.

If Duan Tingxuan knew what the old matriarch was thinking at this moment, he might faint from anger: Is this how his good grandson is treated? After the old grandmother gave her spiritual support, she refused to even spare him any soup. Is this the real grandmother

After all, Mrs. Fang is an old man. After being excited for a long time, she became a little tired, so everyone said goodbye one after another. Su Nuannuan was about to go back to Meiyuelou with the big tabby cat in her arms, when she heard a serious voice behind her: "You are too ignorant, you don't want to go back to the backyard, think of a more tactful reason, how can you just refuse the boss?" Ma'am? Are you not afraid of the old lady being sad? Where is all the filial piety?"

Su Nuannuan turned around, and saw Mrs. Yang staring at her with burning eyes. She didn't panic, and smiled slightly: "Ma'am, this is too serious. The filial piety of the daughter-in-law is not all in the noodles and side dishes that the old lady eats." Is it? I even enjoyed it with my wife. How can I say that my daughter-in-law is ignorant? Does my wife also want me to come back to the backyard? That’s a good thing. If the wife misses her daughter-in-law so much, then the daughter-in-law really can’t let her down. When I go back, I will tell our father to let him tidy up the Spring Breeze Garden as soon as possible, and I will move back on an auspicious day, how about it? I am all doing this for the good of my wife, and my daughter-in-law is still filial, right? "
