The little cook in the book has fallen asleep
Chapter 3 No one can see behind the tree
Just as Xiao Ou said, as soon as Cheng Yu came out of the space, he felt that Zhao Yunniang was carrying him back to the room and preparing to feed him.
She originally felt very ashamed and didn't want to eat it because she was not a real child. But then she thought about the ancient times, where she didn't have breast milk and there was no milk powder, so she would be the one who starved to death.
So just accept your fate and just treat yourself as a child!
After feeding Cheng Yu, her grandmother carried her to the main room and they chatted with other people.
Old Lady Cheng was listening to Cheng Lixiao talking about the interesting things that happened during the escort mission when she suddenly heard a babyish voice in her ear: "How are we going to give the meat to mother and grandmother?" (Cheng Yu deliberately let the old lady hear it)
Old Mrs. Cheng was puzzled. There were a lot of men in this room, so how could there be a little girl's voice?
Did she hear it wrongly? However, the voice was so clear, as if it was right next to her ear.
She couldn't help but look around in confusion. Wait, little girl? The old lady lowered her head and looked at the little Cheng Yu in her arms. When the little Cheng Yu saw the old lady looking at her, she smiled at her without any teeth.
Cheng Yu was seen smiling at the old lady, but thinking: "There are so many people here today, where should I hide the meat?" Then, the baby voice rang in the ears of old lady Cheng.
Old Mrs. Cheng was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. Was this little girl's voice?
The old lady looked down at the little girl and thought to herself: She didn't even open her mouth to speak, so why did she have the sound of a baby talking? Her inner voice? Could she hear her little girl's inner voice?
"Yes, it's me!" Cheng Yu saw the old lady looking at her with inquiring eyes, so she answered.
The old lady was still unsure! So in order to confirm her inner guess, she hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "The big tree in our yard is really big! Looking from the main room and the kitchen, you can't see its back at all."
As soon as the words fell, the childish voice was heard again: "Okay, grandma, people of this era like to eat slightly fatter meat, get some thigh meat, big pork belly, oh, there's even a pig's head! Grandpa and grandpa will definitely like it very much, grandma, go behind the big tree and pick up the meat! ”
Cheng Yu struggled to break free, and pulled his little hand out from the tightly wrapped quilt with great effort, and pointed to the back of the tree. However, his chubby little hand could not be straightened at all, and his little finger moved, which was so adorable.
Seeing this, the old lady pretended to go and check and slowly walked behind the big tree.
It's no big deal to take a look. Wow! Under the big tree, there was a pig's head, a pig's foot and several pieces of pork belly, which weighed about 20 to 30 kilograms, as well as a bag of rice and a large bag of pork belly.
The old lady walked into the kitchen with a smile on her face, and cheerfully called her eldest and third daughters-in-law to go behind the big tree to pick up the meat.
When the two daughters-in-law saw so much meat, they were shocked at first, but soon they regained their composure.
Because they know very well in their hearts that their mother-in-law is the best mother-in-law who can't be better. She has always treated everyone equally. She would never let anyone suffer any loss, but would never let the three daughters-in-law suffer any loss.
So both of them told themselves not to think about things they couldn't figure out, and just listen to their mother-in-law's arrangements. After all, there must be a reason why the mother-in-law did this!
"People from the first and third families, wait a moment. I will ask our eldest brother to borrow an ox cart from the head of the village, and then go to the next village to pick up your parents and have dinner together tonight.
Our little girl is one month old! Let’s call them over and have some fun together!
By the way, let’s also bring our daughter’s two cousins over here!” Old Mrs. Cheng happily instructed her two daughters-in-law.
At this moment, Mrs. Cheng looked at the pile of meat in the kitchen and couldn't help but wonder: It's so hot, if the meat is not eaten up, it will go bad!
Fortunately, his three daughters-in-law are all from the neighboring Qingtian Village. Later, he will ask the eldest son to make a trip and bring the eldest and third son's father-in-law and mother-in-law over to join in the fun.
Moreover, when the second daughter-in-law's parents, brother and sister-in-law came over just now, they did not bring the two children with them (food was precious these days, so the Zhao family was reluctant to bring their own boys). They can also bring them over later to add to the fun. It's just a matter of adding two pairs of chopsticks.
As soon as Mrs. Cheng finished her words, Mrs. Zhao quickly said, "Oh, no, no! Those two kids have big appetites. We've already prepared food for them."
In fact, when Mrs. Zhao heard what Mrs. Cheng said, she felt very happy, as it showed her importance to the Zhao family.
But when I think about the large population of the Cheng family and the shortage of food rations, I think every bit of saving is a bit of saving. As long as my daughter lives well, it is more important than anything else.
Not long after, the delicious lunch was served - after the simple egg noodles were carried to the main room, everyone began to feast on it.
Everyone had a satisfied smile on their face. This bowl of noodles was made of all white flour. Most people would not be willing to eat it like this. It was only after hearing her granddaughter say that there was still some food left that Grandma Cheng was willing to eat it like this.
"Tiesong, you and Tiewan, don't be in such a hurry to leave!
I asked my eldest son to borrow the ox cart from your house, and go to the next village to pick up the father-in-law and mother-in-law of the eldest and third sons to join in the fun. The second son just ran to buy some meat. Let's have a good time tonight!" Old Mrs. Cheng said to the head of the village and the head of the village.
Cheng Laoer nodded happily. Although he didn't know when he would go to cut the meat as his mother mentioned, his wife said that he should do whatever his mother said.
The head of Chengjia Village is Cheng Tiesong, and Cheng Tiewan sitting next to him is the village chief.
At this moment, the two of them were leaning back in their chairs contentedly savoring the delicious bowl of egg noodles they had just had. The old lady was really generous and the entire bowl of noodles was made with white flour.
"Oh, sister-in-law, I've already troubled your family enough at noon..." Cheng Tiesong hurriedly declined. After all, the rain came too late this year, resulting in generally poor harvests for everyone and food became a scarce commodity.
"No way! We are all family, why are you being so polite? Besides, in this kind of weather, the meat in the house can't be kept for too long!" Old Mrs. Cheng quickly interrupted the headman's excuses and led her daughters-in-law into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Not long after, a rich and tempting aroma of meat wafted out from the kitchen, attracting several people who were chatting in the main room to become unable to sit still. They carried tables, chairs and benches to the big tree in the yard to enjoy the cool and chat.
......Turn your gaze towards the kitchen......
Cheng Yu was gently placed in the small and lovely bamboo cradle carefully made by Grandpa Cheng. He made babbling sounds, as if telling the world about his happiness and curiosity.
Originally, the group of gentlemen in the main room were reluctant to let Cheng Yu go to the kitchen to get hot, and wanted to keep her in the main room.
But Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Cheng felt that a grown man could not take good care of the child, so they brought Cheng Yu to the kitchen and placed him at the kitchen door, where the breeze was just right.
Old Mrs. Cheng was worried about how to cook the pig's head, so Cheng Yu told her from the heart that the seasoning for the braised meat should be packed in a small bag.
The old lady asked her two daughters-in-law to wash the pig's head and blanch it in water. Then, pretending nothing had happened, she took out the bag of marinade prepared by Cheng Yu and threw it into the blanched pig's head.
As time passed, after just a dozen minutes, the overbearing and tempting aroma of braised meat spread and filled the entire house.
Old Mrs. Cheng smelled this overbearing smell, she excitedly hugged Cheng Yu, kissed him hard, and praised: "My little girl is so great, she is simply a little fairy!"
Although the three daughters-in-law and the Zhao family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did not understand, they expressed their agreement. Isn't the fair and tender little Cheng Yu a little fairy?
Not long after, Cheng Jin came back from the next village to pick up people. However, surprisingly, there were not only four elderly people in the car - Cheng Jin and Cheng Tian's father-in-law and mother-in-law, but also two cousins from the Zhao family, and there were also four boys around ten years old.
When Aunt Cheng San (Lin Paner) saw this situation, her face instantly darkened.
She knew in her heart that her parents had really taken all the boys from her brother and sister-in-law's families this time. They were not here to congratulate her, but to cause trouble and make enemies!
After the four boys jumped off the car, their noses were hooked by the overbearing smell of meat. They opened their mouths and shouted loudly: "Grandpa, grandma, we want to eat meat, we want to eat meat!"
They looked just like four starving ghosts reincarnated, attracting curious glances from people who were enjoying the cool in the yard or busy in the kitchen.
When Cheng Tian and Aunt Cheng San (Lin Paner) saw this scene, they blushed with shame and wished they could find a hole to crawl into.
What made people blush even more was that two shameless replies came from the oxcart: "Okay, yes, we have everything. Eat as much as you can later. It's free anyway!"
Hearing this, Old Lady Cheng's face instantly turned gloomy, and she cursed the Lin family in her heart for being so shameless.
If it wasn't for her third daughter-in-law's sake, she would have rushed up and slapped the shameless man twice.
Originally she didn't want to call the Lin family, but she was afraid that her third daughter-in-law might have some ideas in her mind. Now she really wanted to take a broom and drive these people out of the house.
At the same time, Zhao's two cousins also got out of the car, but their performances were completely different.
They respectfully bowed to everyone and said in unison: "Grandpa Cheng, Grandma Cheng, Uncle Cheng, Aunt Cheng, and my aunt, uncle... Hello everyone."
The two of them also studied in a private school in the county town, and Old Mrs. Zhao was very strict about etiquette.
Upon seeing this, Mr. Zhao showed a satisfied smile on his face. He nodded secretly, thinking that no matter what other people's children were like, his own grandson must know etiquette.
Then, they both looked at the little one sleeping in the cradle at the kitchen door - their lovely little cousin.
Zhao Fan (the eldest Zhao, 15 years old this year) and Zhao Ye (the second Zhao, only 12 years old) walked quickly to the cradle, slowly squatted down, carefully placed a pair of small silver bracelets in their hands on Cheng Yu's soft little hands, and whispered: "Our little girl must be free from disasters and live a happy life."
This small silver bracelet was bought with the money earned by the two brothers from copying books. It is not expensive but it is a very thoughtful gift.
Old Mrs. Cheng was about to refuse. After all, her two children were still young, and she didn’t know how long it took to save up money to buy this little bracelet.
But she was held tightly by the old lady Zhao who smiled and said, "This is the sincerity of Nannan's two cousins. We can't let them down."
Old Mrs. Zhao and Aunt Zhao were very satisfied with the behavior of their grandson/son.
However, at this moment, Li Zhaodi (Aunt Cheng San and Lin Paner's mother) walked to the kitchen door.
She stared at the meat in the kitchen and kept muttering, "It's just a little girl's full moon banquet. Why is it worth buying so much meat? It's better to leave this meat for my grandchildren!"
Although her voice was not loud, it was still clearly heard by everyone in the kitchen.
Hearing this, Cheng Yu couldn't help but think to himself: "This old woman is so annoying and unlucky!" And this thought immediately reached the ears of Old Lady Cheng and Zhao Yunniang (Cheng Yu's mother).
The two of them immediately turned pale. Seeing that her sister-in-law and mother-in-law looked unhappy, Aunt Cheng San (Lin Paner) immediately said to Lin Zhaodi, "Mom, if you want to eat meat, just be quiet. We in the Cheng family have a lot of boys, so don't embarrass us with your tricks!"
Cheng Yu cheered in his heart, "Third Aunt is so powerful, Third Aunt is so cool..."
