[Rebirth] Deep house raising dumplings

Xi Wanxiang was walking unsteadily from the ridge of the field, holding a small bamboo basket on her arm.Now is the time for spring plowing, and the water-filled rice fields are slippery everywhere, and if you don't pay attention, you will fall into the mud.Don't ask Wanxiang how she knew, she had already lost her experience.

After finally getting to the side of the road, Wan Xiang dared to raise her eyes and take a cautious look. Before that, she heard a noise, and a group of little bean dings behind her suddenly started chattering in dialect. She couldn't understand it, but she didn't dare Look at it boldly, holding back some curiosity.

However, after raising his eyes, Xi Wanxiang regretted it very much, why didn't he look at it after he landed safely!As soon as she saw her cousin who was standing not far away smiling slightly at her, she stopped, and then Xiao Douding, who didn't know the truth behind her, bumped into her.

Fortunately, Xi Wanxiang had long legs and long steps (?), so she jumped onto the dirt road and fell into Yin Dang's arms.

The bosom of the sister-in-law is fragrant, and her clothes are as soft as clouds in the sky.

"Sister-in-law~~ It's really you!" Xi Wanxiang raised her head from Yin Dang's arms in disbelief, then quickly straightened her body, her gaze firmly fixed on Yin Dang, "Why are you here? How could grandma let you out?"

Little Wanxiang's eyes are black and bright, like two obsidian embedded in the transparent white jade face.Yin Tang pulled her sleeves, looked at her carefully, only felt that the girl had grown up so fast, but after not seeing her for a year, Wan Xiang standing in front of him was indeed slim and elegant.It's just that she was dressed a little too shabby.

She put on the blue indigo bunt that she was wearing for the first time during the plague last year, with daixiao's silk wrapped around her arms. As soon as she came back from the fields, she rolled up her cuffs and trousers.The exposed arms and legs were stained with a little mud, but they looked whiter and whiter than lotus roots. There was still a little sunlight shining on the remaining water droplets on the skin, giving off a subtle soft light.The white-washed headscarf was neatly wrapped, and two half-length twisted braids hung down to her chest.

Yin Chan's eyes followed her braids and fell on Wan Xiang's chest.The little girl has also begun to grow, although her body is becoming more and more slender, but her chest is already bulging.

Noticing the eyes of the cousin sister-in-law and the smile on her lips getting stronger, Xi Wanxiang's face began to turn crimson, and she couldn't help but want to arch her back. He jumped up from the ridge of the field and surrounded Xi Wanxiang like a small furry animal. The leader was a six-year-old boy with long hair.

At this moment, the gnocchi-faced boy clapped his hands happily, imitating Wanxiang, and shouted to Yin Tang: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law."

Now that it's all over, the little ones around join in the fun, clapping and booing together.

Xi Wanxiang was so angry that she stomped her feet, but there was nothing she could do about it. These kids were so stubborn that they liked to cling to her.On weekdays it's fine, after all, Dad is always away, and Mama Zhang, who used to serve, also left with tears after her mother's funeral. With this group of sticky candies following her, it will save her loneliness.But now that the sister-in-law is here, she doesn't want these little buns getting in the way!

Fortunately, the round-faced woman not far away saw her boy, scolded him as an "ignorant brat", then came over and twisted his ears and dragged him home.The rest had no leader to follow, so they scattered like birds and beasts.

The house is at the entrance of the town, and when I led my cousin there, I passed through the entire Jinmen Town.

Although Jinmen Town is a town, it was a long time ago when it was bustling and bustling. Now there is only a depression left, more like an ordinary village party that can no longer be ordinary.However, seeing neighbors and neighbors hearing about chickens and dogs, and hanging flowers on the fence, there is also a bit of contentment.

After walking for nearly a stick of incense, I arrived at the door of the house.The four rooms embrace each other, and there is a garden in front of it, on which a lot of flowers and plants are planted, which are well maintained for a feast of fun.One side was originally a calligraphy and painting shop opened by Xi Yuannian, but the business was not good, so it closed down, and now it has been converted into Wanxiang's dormitory.

I slept all the way, and I didn't feel very hungry before, but now I wake up, but I start to be hungry for no reason.Before stepping into the main room, my stomach let out an unsatisfactory "grunt", and it dragged on for a long time, which attracted the young lady and the second lady to turn their heads.

Jinlian was a little embarrassed, but he could hear clearly, so it was hard to reason.Before Jin could even open her mouth, Wan Xiang took Yin Tang's hand and said brightly: "My cousin is also hungry, Wan Xiang happened to be kneading the dough at noon, she should be awake by now, I'll serve you some noodles !"

Jinlian coughed and smiled unnaturally: "I didn't expect Second Miss to make noodles..." Before he finished speaking, Jinlian suddenly saw a pair of candles on the dirt wall protruding from the broken apricot blossoms With ordinary eyes, staring at the few people, he was so frightened that he took a step back and almost stepped on the flowerbed.

The big fat cat "Snow Flower" jumped down from the top of the wall vigorously, but actually stayed on the top of the wall. When she saw Wanxiang leading two strangers in, Snow Flower was still very conflicted.As a seven or eight-year-old cat, she should pretend she didn't see anything, and continue to squat on it to doze off, but Wan Xiang treats her pretty well, at least she doesn't have to go out to steal fish all day long, and she still does her duty , jumped down, bared his teeth.

Wan Xiang glared at the big fat cat, and then patiently introduced to it, this is the cousin sister-in-law, this is Jin Lian, they are all from her own family, please be obedient.

Snow Flower yawned, then turned around dismissively, and walked into the room with light steps.

Yin Tang couldn't help smiling, and asked, "Is this a snowflake? I still remember that it was only a little big when it was first brought here." As he spoke, Yin Tang compared his palm.

"Yes, the world is impermanent, and the sea is changing." Xi Wanxiang sighed.

Xuehua seemed to hear her name, turned her head proudly, and called "Mimimi" to several people, as if she was accepting their compliments.

After asking his sister-in-law to sit down in the main hall, Xi Wanxiang went into the kitchen alone to cook noodles.

Jinlian wanted to follow in to help, but after a while, Wanxiang kicked her out again.Looking at the second young lady who was busy in the kitchen, but orderly lighting a fire, chopping noodles, and handling the spoons, she couldn't help feeling: "My God, if she didn't look like the second young lady, the servant would really think that she was dressed by the snail girl." It's..." As she spoke, she winked at the young lady who was sitting at the table, "Come and see, young lady! It's really strange. In the past, the second lady was so painful that she even beat eggs. !"

That's right, Jinlian's cooking skills for the second lady are still at the same level as when she was eight years old when she prepared "fat cakes" for Yin Chan's birthday. When she thought of the scene where the second lady was beating egg whites until her arms and hands almost cramped, she couldn't help laughing , Unexpectedly, Shi Shiran is now a person who can make noodles by himself!

It's a pity that Yin Chan couldn't see that shameless big fat cat was lying comfortably on her lap at this moment, unwilling to move an inch away.It was not easy for Yin Chan to drive the snow down. She looked at its squinted eyes in embarrassment, so she scratched its soft nape with her fingers, and signaled Jinlian to move away so that she could see it too. Scene in the kitchen.

But when Jin Lian got out of the way, Wan Xiang already came out with a bowl of noodles stacked on top of each other. After the white air filled her face, her smiling face seemed to be covered with a soft veil.

Xi Wanxiang set the table and chopsticks, but when she lowered her head, she found that the fat cat was lying on her cousin's lap!She knew how much a snowflake weighed, and she disliked it on weekdays and was unwilling to hug it, but she didn't expect that this stinky cat would be so greedy for cheap, that she would rely on her sister-in-law!You can't kill your cousin sister-in-law!

After following Xi Wanxiang for so many years, Xue Hua felt a little guilty when Xi Wanxiang stared.It's just that it's really comfortable to stay on this leg, and Xue Hua doesn't want to go down.He shrank his neck and pretended not to see it.Xi Wanxiang made a gesture to take it away, only then did Xuehua jump to the ground, said "Mimimi" in a melodious manner, and went out proudly.

Yin Chan breathed a sigh of relief, and jokingly said, "How did Xue Hua grow up so that it can grow back like this?"

Wan Xiang curled her lips: "There's nothing wrong with my body that is prone to getting fat, I get fat even after drinking saliva, and I just like squatting on the wall to bask in the sun!"

Yin Chan rubbed Wanxiang's still bulging cheeks, and said with a smile, "Not bad."

Wan Xiang pouted Lao Gao: "No way! I was born with it! If my sister-in-law pinches it again, it will be even more irritating!"

Yin Tang didn't let go at all: "Okay, okay, I still think you're thinner, and the dumplings in it are not obvious." Pinching his hands aside, his smile grew stronger, "Is it bean paste stuffing or meat stuffing?"

Wan Xiang wanted to break free, but seeing her sister-in-law was having fun, it had been a long time since she grinned like this, so she was discouraged, and obediently let her manipulate her with her hands behind her back. After moaning for a while, she said, "Dou Sha Stuffed."

Jinlian was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and he was not in Xi's house at the moment, so he had already picked up the chopsticks and sucked noodles. Hearing the soft voice of the second lady, he almost didn't spit out, raised his head and said with a smile: "No Poor, Second Miss likes to eat sweets, so it must be sweet bean paste stuffing!"

The flour in the countryside is not as white and fine as that in Taimen Town, let alone modern, so the noodles made look a little yellowish and rough.It's just uniform in thickness, strong, and neatly lying in the soup bowl like a full moon, pouring thick and fragrant soup, and lying next to it are green leaves of small vegetables, which were picked from the vegetable bed just now. , very fresh.

A simple bowl of noodles is like a rare delicacy in the world.It was actually the most delicious bowl of noodles Yin Yang had ever eaten.

After the meal, Jinlian didn't dare to let the second lady wash the dishes, so she took the initiative to clean up the dishes, scrambled to wipe the table, and ran to the kitchen to rinse.

After serving Xue Hua with the cat food, Wan Xiang came back and sat next to the sister-in-law.

She was a little dissatisfied with the noodles, so she said dejectedly: "This time the dough was kneaded casually, it was useless, and it didn't taste good..."

Yin Tang also wondered why Wanxiang was unhappy while eating noodles, it was because of this.She picked up the hands with the evening fragrance hanging down on her knees, and held them in the palms. It was warm and soft, and she felt covered with a thin layer of calluses.Yin Chan's heart aches very much, such a girl with thin skin and tender flesh should not be touched by a trace of spring water, she should be raised in a deep boudoir to be lazy and lazy, but now she carries her shoulders on her shoulders for her livelihood.

Wan Xiang looked at the sister-in-law's narrowed eyes, and naturally understood what she was thinking, so she quickly changed the topic: "By the way, sister-in-law doesn't know how the family is doing now?"

"Everything is fine, don't worry about it. Your grandmother also misses you very much, but her body is not as good as before. That's why I came to see you."

"Where's the bank? Everything is all right?"

Yin Chan nodded, and she remembered what the shopkeeper of Chen's cloth shop said, but she still smiled lightly and didn't ask.

"What about the Yu family? Where's Aunt Feng? Is there anything wrong with you?" Thinking of the smog that happened in the ancestral house a year ago, Wan Xiang kept asking questions like a cannonball.

Yin Yang was absent-minded, talking about other things, caressing Wan Xiang's bare wrist with his fingers: "Where's your bracelet?"

Wan Xiang hurriedly said: "On weekdays, I was afraid of accidentally knocking it, so I put it away."

Yin Chan let out a "hmm", his eyes were kept lowered, only the long eyelashes were left open like a small fan, flaring and flaring, casting a shadow under the distant candlelight.

"Your grandmother is thinking about your marriage, and asked your father about your marriage before, but did he ever mention it?" After a long time, Yin Chen opened his lips and said.

Wan Xiang was taken aback, why did she suddenly mention this, she almost forgot the existence of that person.Quickly shook his head: "Since my mother passed away, my father has always been taciturn, otherwise he would just paint. Now that there are fewer people coming from Yongzhou to Jinmen Town, he can't sell them. The mountain in front is Yongzhou, and he will go there by himself. Selling paintings, so I don't have much time at home, how can I have the time to say goodbye! Besides, I don't like that brother, so I forgot everything..."

Yin Chan was inexplicably relieved, his eyes fell on Wan Xiang's bright eyes, and he said softly: "But you are also old, that's the case, I will let the old lady make decisions for you when I go back this time, and I must choose one." Good family."

Ah, melancholy.
