The Village Doctress

Chapter 84: invite to a meal

Views:

After Lin Fufu accompanied Dr. Li and Mr. Lin to her home, Grandma Li had already returned. Seeing Dr. Li and Mr. Lin coming, she was only surprised for a moment, then returned to her normal expression, and spoke kindly to Dr. Li and Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin salutes.

Although, a few days ago, she really wanted to scratch Mr. Lin's old face a few times...

Dr. Li returned the greeting very politely, but Mr. Lin just nodded and said "hmm" as a greeting. He also felt very uncomfortable seeing Grandma Li, but Lin Fufu couldn't help it even if he obeyed this old woman.

Lin Fufu was unhappy seeing Mr. Lin like this.

Mr. Lin is relying too much on the old to sell the old, making him look like an official.

After pouring the tea, Lin Fufu asked Mr. Lin to greet Dr. Li on his behalf. First, he took out the big bone that had been soaked in cold water and cleaned it, then boiled the water and splashed the bloody water, then put it in a big earthen pot and put it on the charcoal fire. Simmering.

After doing all this, I went to the vegetable garden with a bamboo basket.

Dr. Li watched Lin Fufu rushing in and out in an orderly manner, so he smiled and praised Mr. Lin: "Mr. Lin is really blessed. It is not easy to have such a smart and capable granddaughter who is also good at medicine!"

These words are used to describe a peasant girl, and it can be regarded as a high compliment. If an ordinary person's granddaughter is praised like this by a person of some status, she would be very happy.

After all, it is a very honorable thing for a girl in the family to be looked up to so highly.

But Mr. Lin is not an ordinary person. A granddaughter is not smart, so it doesn't matter if she can do it or not. Most likely, she will marry a good family in the future and help the brothers in the family.

But the relationship between Lin Fufu and Lin Dalang is so bad now, he has long since given up hope that Lin Fufu can marry well in the future and will help Lin Dalang.

Seeing that Mr. Lin didn't care about his sincere praise, Dr. Li's shrewd eyes flickered.

He was even more sure that this old Mr. Lin was just as his servants had inquired about, and he cared about this capable granddaughter of Sanfang at all.

He couldn't help thinking that Lin Gospel was not worth it, if such a girl was entrusted to be born in his Li family, how great would it be

Today's lunch was still made by Lin Fufu. Although she mentioned Grandma Li's cooking skills, Grandma Li still asked her to be the chef and helped her out.

Grandma Li also has selfish intentions. Dr. Li is not an ordinary doctor. Behind him is the Li family, a family of imperial doctors.

If Lin Fufu's food can also make Dr. Li full of praise, it will definitely be good for Lin Fufu's good reputation in the future.

Lin Fufu didn't know the twists and turns in Grandma Li's heart, and thought that Grandma Li was tired from taking care of the two children, so when Grandma Li asked her to be the chef, she didn't refuse.

Mr. Lin probably knew some details about Dr. Li, and for the sake of his grandson's future, he deliberately made friends with Dr. Li.

Dr. Li is naturally a smart person. Whenever Mr. Lin brought the question to the imperial examination and other issues, Dr. Li would say a few perfunctory words, or simply shake his head to pretend not to know, and then began to ask some questions about farming and people's livelihood.

It looks like they are chatting happily, but they actually have their own thoughts.

Lin Fufu quickly stuffed a pot of rice, washed the vegetables, chopped up half a catty of meat and thickened it with sweet potato flour to make small meatballs.

I went to cut a few pieces of pickled wild pork, washed them clean, and fried a bean.

I made a stewed eggplant, a vegetable stir-fried tender pumpkin, and a cabbage egg soup.

In the end, I went to get another six fried eggs, washed them and made a delicious cold fried egg.

The lunch was ready, and when the dishes were served one by one, Mr. Lin was also stunned.

He has never seen anyone in this farm make such delicious food.

When Dr. Li saw these dishes, he knew that he had put his mind to it.

The small meatballs are small and round, and look full of strength. The bacon and beans exude the special aroma of cured meat, and the refreshing beans look very appetizing.

Braised eggplant in oil, stir-fried tender pumpkin, and cabbage egg soup also look pleasing to the eye.

Finally, Grandma Li served the well-boiled fragrant big bone soup, and Lin Fufu served her carefully prepared cold mixed eggs.

Dr. Li's eyes lit up when he saw the cold fried eggs served by Lin Fufu. It turned out that the fried eggs were eaten in this way, and he wanted to ask the little girl for advice later.

Grandma Li took the time out of the utility room to bring out a jar of old wine. When Lin Yuan was around, she liked to drink some old wine, so Chu bought a lot and kept it at home.

When Dr. Li saw that there was still old wine, the smile on his face became even stronger.

At this time, Afen, Afang and Lin Sanlang came back with herbs on their backs.

Lin Fufu asked Grandma Li to accompany the guests at the table, and he took a catty of meat for the second room and went to pick up the three siblings.

Tell the three siblings about the guests coming to the house, and then looked at A Fen with a smile, and handed the meat to her, "Sister A Fen, I bought this by the way today, you take it back to the second Aunt, then come to my house for dinner."

When Ah Fen and Ah Fang had red eye circles, they were also at a loss, so they could only say: "What a big deal, hurry up and come back, come to eat later, I made delicious food today!"

Ah Fen nodded, carried the meat and ran to her home.

Lin Sanlang raised his head and looked at Lin Fufu seriously, feeling more and more that he was right to follow this sister.

Lin Fufu helped them put the washed medicinal materials in the yard to dry, and then led them into the main room.

Mr. Lin saw that Lin Sanlang, who didn't see anyone during the day and only returned home at night, came in with Lin Fufu, his face darkened.

As soon as the chopsticks were put down, he was about to reprimand him, but Dr. Li held up the wine cup and respected him: "Mr. Lin, Mo Nu, Mo Nu, Aunt Li cooked such a good table of food, I can't let you down!"

Grandma Li turned around and glanced at Lin Sanlang and Ah Fang, and immediately beckoned: "Good boy, sit down and eat, your Gospel sister specially cooked a lot of rice, you can eat hard today, just enough."

Hearing Dr. Li said that she cooked the food, she looked at Dr. Li with a smile and explained: "Doctor Li doesn't know something. I'm old, and my hands and feet are not as fast as when I was young. This table of meals is made by Gospel alone. Yes, I just help chop the onion and garlic, and burn it."

Dr. Li was shocked again, opened his mouth wide, and looked at Mr. Lin enviously, "Mr. Lin, you are a lucky person!"

Dr. Li's words seemed to be envious, but in fact, he did mention something to Mr. Lin, so that even if he didn't pay much attention to Lin Fufu, it would be better anyway.

He is a knowledgeable person. With such a capable and delicate girl in his family, as long as his marriage is not too bad, he will have a good life in the future.

If her natal family is reliable, and the girl wants to help her natal brothers, wouldn't that be beautiful

But Mr. Lin didn't. He felt that the more others praised Lin Fufu, the more they looked down on his grandson. Could a girl who would marry someone in the future compare to his grandson who studied and got a good reputation

Isn't this a joke
