Chapter 430: The guest meal
Second update, please find the latest chapter of pink.
***………………****
After Lian Man'er finished the meal, He called Mrs. Ping, and another slightly older woman came over and cleaned up the dining table, bowls and chopsticks.
I originally wanted to talk to He, but I saw that Mrs. Ping secretly gave He a wink, and Mrs. He said that something was wrong and followed Mrs. Ping out.
Lian Man'er sat on the kang and looked out the window.
He followed his wife Ping to the kitchen, and the old man was walking around the yard.
"I said that there are many rules in the yamen, so I can't go out in this yard casually. I can't stay in the house, so I can only walk in the yard." Wuro said.
"I said that too?" Lian Man'er said, "I just heard from my second uncle that I haven't taken my heart yet. Why can't I even come out of the yard here?"
"There were two corner gates behind, and they were locked by the magistrate and refused to leave. If the people in the yard want to go out, they have to pass the Yimen in front." Goro lowered his voice and said, "The lobby of the magistrate is behind the magistrate,... Xiaoqi and I just chatted with our master. Our master said that this magistrate is very domineering, and there are people in Yimen who are surveillance. Whoever comes out here, they are interrogating and suspicious. The entire county government office is full of magistrates..."
Lian Man'er understood that this was the magistrate who excluded and suppressed Lian Shouren.
"Is this magistrate so alone?" Zhang also understood a little, "...When you were at home, your grandfather was used to working in such a large front and back yard. It was really awkward to be unable to go out in this small yard."
No wonder the old man was walking back and forth in the yard at this time.
"My dear said that the uncle's official job is quite hard." Goro said again, "I said that the uncle is a county magistrate, and there is no other authority to download. I just need to count the military households in this county... I also said that the magistrate sent the uncle to do a chore. Less than a month after he arrived, he asked the uncle to escort things. After that trip, the uncle lost a lot of weight."
After hearing Wulang say this, Lian Man'er couldn't help but remember some of the things Wu Yugui said about the county government. Counting military households is an errand that is not good or bad. This errand is the most difficult task. If there is a problem with the escort, such as a shortage or a poor quality, the person who escorts must be responsible for compensation. Moreover, the escorts have to be rushed to rush to the middle of the night on the road, and if the date is missed, they will be punished. This is the most thankless errand.
Not to mention the item of compensation for things, it is just that the fifth day of the 5th day of the day has been traveling in the middle of the night. Even Shouren had never suffered such pain when he was at home. Naturally, he would not be able to withstand this and complain about the pain.
Even the old man must feel distressed.
"Brother, Xiaoqi, have you said anything to our master?" Lian Man'er asked quickly while there was no one in the room.
"I said it all." Goro nodded.
"Then what did you say?" Zhang asked.
"...... My grandfather said that he read my grandfather's letter and wrote the letter for both families. I don't know that our family has rejected my grandfather. My grandfather said that this is a two-faced and we don't want to, so there is nothing to say. He said he was looking for time and advised my grandfather. He also told me not to have anything to do with my grandfather because of this matter. He said that it was all about his relatives and flesh. If my grandfather did something wrong, it was not out of any bad intentions. He asked us to do whatever we should do in the future." Wulang said.
"Ah... this must be because your aunt has complained to your grandfather and your grandmother after she arrived here." Zhang thought for a while, then she thought about it and thought about it.
"My master is an old man, so I'll persuade him to make peace. What should I do if I have specific rules? I'll do it myself." Goro said calmly.
Lian Man'er nodded, Goro was right.
"Yes, what should we do?" Zhang also said.
"And that?" Lian Man'er asked again.
"When collecting rent, I knew that Brother Jiezu called the servant to lock up the people from the Laowu family. I was so angry. My grandfather said that he had taught Brother Jiezu a lesson and said that this matter was not done properly." Xiaoqi said.
"Then Brother Jiezu sold grain, cigarettes, etc., so I didn't say anything?" Lian Man'er asked.
Goro and Xiaoqi both shook their heads.
After all, he is his beloved grandson. Even the old man is dissatisfied with something, and most likely he will endure it and will not say anything in front of Goro and Xiaoqi.
Wulang and Xiaoqi said one more time and said something about the chat with Mr. Lian to Zhang and Lian Man'er.
"I also asked my brother and I if I would delay my homework if I asked for leave from a private school. I said that I would go back to give me some lessons, so I felt relieved." Xiaoqi said.
"I asked us to study hard and get a good fortune in the future. We also asked us to cherish the elderly and poor, do good deeds and accumulate virtues, and have the conditions to take care of our relatives and friends, let us find ways to take care of them." Wuro said again.
Gu and Jiang didn't know what they were busy with, so they never came back. He went into the kitchen and didn't come out.
Zhao Xiu'e's family members were afraid that they would have private words to say, so they were inconvenient to go. However, Zhou's house was not scheming, and it was boring to go. Therefore, the mother and the other ones only spoke in the main hall.
Lian Man'er felt a little strange. Gu and Jiang were both thoughtful people. Even though they knew the situation at home, they should come here to accompany them.
"Your aunt will get married tomorrow, and there must be a lot of things outside here. We don't know how your mother is in charge. If you want to work, you are afraid that your uncle and your sister-in-law will have to do it." Zhang is very understanding, "They may not be busy, so we don't pick this gift. Our mothers sit here, very comfortable."
Wherever he went, Zhang was a casual and easy-to-talk person.
Lian Man'er looked outside the house again. In this yard, she really couldn't tell how much was busy.
In the evening of the sky, Lian Shouren, Lian Shouyi, Erlang, and Sanlang finally came back.
Everyone had to meet each other, and after a while, they had dinner.
Dinner was eaten in three places, and there was a table in the main room. The father and elder brother of Lian, Lian Shouren, Lian Shouyi, Erlang, Sanlang, Silang, Liulang, Zhao Xiu'e were also at this table. Wulang was pulled by Lian and was also at this table.
There was a table in Zhao Xiu'e's house in the east wing, and it was He who brought Lian Ya'er to accompany Zhao Xiu'e's mother and sister-in-law.
Then there was a table in the landlord's house. Zhou took Lian Xiu'er, Lian Lan'er, Yinsuo, Lian Duo'er to sit at a table. Zhang, Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi were given a table to eat.
Gu and Jiang wanted to take care of each other inside and outside, and they would not be served for the time being, and they had to wait for everyone to eat. They both would eat.
On the kang in the east room, two kang tables were together. When Lian Man'er and the others entered the room, Zhou took Lian Xiu'er, Lian Lan'er and others had already sat at the table.
Zhang, Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi also got on the kang and sat down by the table.
In a short while, food was served one after another.
There are four cold dishes, one dish of salt boiled peanuts, one dish of thin slices of ham, one dish of mixed with three shreds, one dish of dried tofu sauce. There are five hot dishes, one dish of fried bean sprouts, garlic sprouts, garlic sprouts, cabbage and tofu vermicelli, and a large bowl of rotten elbow meat, and finally a bowl of egg flower soup.
There was no rice for dinner, only two plates of steamed buns were served.
The food was served, and everyone just waited for Zhou to get the chopsticks to get the meal.
Zhou's face was calm and stretched out his hand to re-place the dishes on the dining table before turning on the chopsticks.
Seeing that everyone had taken the steamed buns first, even Man'er reached out to get them, she realized that in the big plate in front of the three of them, there were a few thick steamed buns for the three of them.
Lian Man'er was secretly shocked. When the hand that stretched out turned around, he took a white-floured steamed bun. He glanced out of the corner of his eyes and saw Zhang reaching out, but he wanted to get the thick steamed bun. Lian Man'er stuffed the white-floured steamed bun into Zhang's hand, then reached out to grab two steamed buns, one for Xiaoqi and the other for a bite by himself.
Zhang took a bite of the white-floured steamed bun, and heard the sound of chopsticks falling from the opposite side, and Zhou's cold snorting.
Zhang's mouth made of steamed buns feel a little uncomfortable.
Lian Man'er gently touched Zhang with her elbow, signaling her to let go of her heart and eat openly.
"Mom, you are not the little wife of the past now, you are a guest."
Even if Zhou specially put a few thick steamed buns in front of Zhang, she didn't want to eat them herself, Zhou could still stuff them into Zhang's mouth. Zhang didn't eat thick steamed buns, but what would Zhou do if she was angry after eating white steamed buns? Zhou even beat her and angry with herself. She didn't believe this occasion. Zhou dared to say that she wouldn't let Zhang eat white steamed buns and let Zhang eat thick steamed buns.
Lian Man'er ate a bite of steamed bun and reached out to pick up the food. Then she found that the fried garlic sprouts and garlic sprouts that were originally placed in front of her were gone, but it was replaced by cabbage, tofu vermicelli and vegetarian fried bean sprouts.
Lian Man'er picked up a chopstick and ate it.
"This bean sprout is delicious." Lian Man'er praised, and saw the fried garlic sprouts in front of Yinsuo.
Lian Man'er put down the chopsticks, picked up the bean sprouts and handed them to the silver lock.
"Yinsuo, you like this dish, let's change it for you." Lian Man'er brought the fried pork with sauerkraut with one hand, and placed the fried bean sprouts in front of Yinsuo with the other hand.
"I don't like to eat bean sprouts, I want to eat fried meat with garlic sprouts." Yinsuo was immediately annoyed.
Lian Man'er just pretended that she didn't hear it, and was busy picking up food for Zhang and Xiaoqi.
Lian Lan'er glanced at Lian Man'er and secretly pinched a silver lock to silence her.
Yinsuo felt aggrieved. He looked up at Lian Lan'er and saw Lian Lan'er wink at her, so he had to shut up with grievance.
Zhou stopped eating, and was aimed at Lian Man'er and Zhang's luck. Lian Lan'er winked and made a fuss on the side, and tried her best to appease Zhou and prevent her from getting angry.
Lian Man'er just pretended that she didn't see it, and used cabbage tofu to change the ham slices in front of Lian Lan'er to her.
"I won't eat anymore." Zhou slapped the table and sat aside and got angry.
Lian Lan'er saw Zhou's back turn and moved the elbow flesh that was originally in front of Zhou's face to Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi.
"Thank you aunt." Lian Man'er said loudly.
