Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World - Chapter 677
The five brothers and sisters bought a carload of things to go home. Not only did Qu’s mother look ugly, but Qu’s father turned blue.
They are used to being frugal. They save money when they have money. At most, they buy some meat to satisfy their cravings. When Mother Qu opens her mouth, she will teach her a lesson. Father Qu grabs her and asks the five people to move things home with a sullen face.
After he had sent the dog away, he asked, “Why did you buy so many things?”
“I thought it was going to be New Year’s Eve, so I bought the New Year’s goods together.” Qu Jingxi smiled and said, “Dad, look at what is still missing, write it down and buy it in a few days?”
“Go back, where did you get so much money?” Mother Qu frowned and said hesitantly, “Xiaobao, if you have a lot of money, it’s better to save it for your father and mother, and then marry a daughter-in-law. You can’t do that. A big-handed flower.”
Qu Jing smiled shyly, squeezed her purse and said, “That’s all that’s left.”
Father Qu and Mother Qu looked at the purse with only a few copper plates, and then looked at the things in the yard, and felt that their hearts were pumping.
Qu Jingxi saw that their faces had changed, and hurriedly stepped forward to help them back to the house.
Qu Weizhen sneered, and Zhao Di and others moved the things back to the old house, and then took out the big bones of the pig and chopped up the stew.
Zhao Di asked in a low voice, “Are you going to start making dinner now?”
“Boil the big bones for a longer time, and let’s cook them slowly. Big sister, you and the second sister take out the meat and cut it into strips, about a pound and a half, and then hang them with ropes and hang them under the eaves. From now on, we will thaw one piece every day. “
It’s cold now, and the meat can be frozen solid overnight by hanging outside.
Qu’s family has never had so much meat, so Zhao Di and Laidi didn’t know how to handle it, so they clumsily cut it according to Qu Weizhen’s method.
Qu Weizhen boiled the big bones, took a look at the main room, and took Di to go out. Before going out, he wrapped some sugar brought back from the capital in dried lotus leaves.
Seeing Daidi staring at her, she stuffed one into her mouth and said with a low laugh, “Third sister still has it. I’ll give you two more when I come back tonight.”
Tai Di’s eyes lit up and exclaimed in a low voice, “Sanjie, you are really amazing!”
It seems that there is something delicious to eat at all times.
Qu Weizhen took her out and asked in a low voice, “There is a lady in our village who used to be a matchmaker for people. Is she still there?”
“Yes, Mrs. Wang, her home is at the end of the village.”
“Take my sister to have a look. You can just play in her yard for a while. The third sister has something to say to Mrs. Wang, and we will go home after we finish talking.”
Dai Di happily agreed and dragged Qu Weizhen to Wang Po’s house.
Qu Weizhen went to Wang Po because she wanted to ask her to find a good kiss for Qu Zhaodi, but Wang Po, who was holding the candy with a smile, couldn’t help but stunned, she wrapped the candy again and stuffed it into Qu Weizhen’s hand. : “Pandi, are you here to make fun of the old lady?”
“Wang Po misunderstood, how could I make fun of you?”
“Then you said you wanted to give your eldest sister a kiss. Who didn’t know that your eldest sister promised Wang Jiazhuang’s master? If you want to say kiss, it should be your second sister.”
“Wangjiazhuang’s family is not suitable, our family is planning to retire, so we want to ask Wang Po to talk about it again,” Qu Weizhen said with a smile: “Our requirements are not high, and it’s okay for the family to be difficult, anyway. My family has few things, but my in-laws need to be kind, my brothers need to be harmonious, and my sister-in-law needs to be kind. You know my eldest sister, her temperament is first-class, her hands and feet are quick and her looks are not bad… …”
“Wait, wait,” Wang Po interrupted her, looking at her suspiciously, “Can you decide this matter?”
“Don’t worry, Mrs. Wang, the marriage at Wangjiazhuang will be retired in a few days, but you have to pay attention from now on, it is best to have the marriage done within a month, we don’t need betrothal gifts or anything, just talk to other people’s families. It’s about the same.”
Wang’s eyes gradually brightened. The marriage between the Qu family and Wangjiazhuang was guaranteed by the matchmaker at Wangjiazhuang. She was not optimistic at first, thinking that the Qu family was selling her daughter, and how old is Mr. Wang? Beating the daughter-in-law so hard again, how hard-hearted parents must they be to deal with this marriage?
Qu Weizhen saw her heartbeat, and continued: “Don’t worry, my brother, I still have some savings, and the matchmaking money will not treat you badly,”
Wang Po patted her thigh and gritted her teeth: “Okay, I’ll take over this matchmaking. Just wait, there will be good news in a few days, and I will definitely choose a good brother-in-law for you.”
Qu Weizhen smiled and said goodbye, and took her home with her.
Wang Po’s daughter-in-law came out of the house, looked at Qu Weizhen’s back, and said, “This girl is prettier than her two older sisters, and I don’t know who will belong to her in the future.”
“Eat and drink well, can you not look good?” Wang Po gave her the candy and said, “Put it away and give it to him when Shuanzi comes back. Give him one a day, don’t give too much.”
The daughter-in-law responded and asked curiously: “Mother, why did you promise her to protect the matchmaker? Her mother is not easy to mess with, and the bride price that her family offered is really not affordable.”
It is normal for a girl to marry at the age of fourteen in the countryside, like Zhao Di who stayed until she was sixteen, partly because of Qu Jingxi’s request, and partly because Qu’s mother wanted to keep her daughter to work for a few more years, waiting for Qu Jing. Let’s make more promises to have better marriages and more betrothal gifts.
In the past few years, there have also been proposals for marriage from their family, but the dowry proposed by the Qu family is eight taels, four times that of ordinary people, which is not affordable for ordinary people, so Zhao Di’s marriage has been delayed.
“How can a person who can afford that betrothal gift have a better character? A Qu family who can’t afford it doesn’t like it. Isn’t your effort in vain?”
“What do you know?” Wang Po glanced at her and said, “That was before Xiaobao came back. Now that he and Pandi have come back, it’s not certain who the Qu family has the final say. You didn’t see what she said just now. Resolutely, will the marriage of Wangjiazhuang be revoked? If the Qu family is still in charge of the third son of Qu, then the marriage cannot be revoked, if it does…”
Wang Po smiled meaningfully.
Her daughter-in-law suddenly realized that if she retire, the Qu family would naturally be the Qu Weizhen sister and brother.
Wang Po sighed, “That child Zhao Di is indeed pitiful. I feel sorry for her when I look at her. Fortunately, she has a good younger sister, and her younger brother is not too conscientious. Otherwise, with such parents, it is better not to come and leave in this life This time.”
Wang Po’s mouth has always been tight, knowing that the marriage between the Qu family and Wang Jiazhuang has not yet been revoked, so she did not dare to speak out, and only quietly looked for candidates for Zhao Di.
Qu’s father and Qu’s mother were worried for a whole night, and they didn’t care that the family sat together to eat together. When he came back to his senses the next day, he realized that he had used more than a pound of pork and a piece of aunt in one night, and he felt distressed immediately.
The mother of Qu then cooked buns again for the four sisters of Zhaodi. If they wanted to eat them separately, they set up a small stove with Qu Jingyi.
Qu Weizhen watched without saying a word, Qu Mu measured out the rice and let them cook, while she went into the kitchen to add rice to cook a pot of white rice when no one was paying attention. When Qu Mu found out, the rice was already cooked. .
She was so angry that she was about to kick her when she picked up the broom. Qu Weizhen screamed and dragged Qu Jingxi, who had run out to see the movement, to block her in front of her, raised her eyebrows and looked at her and said, “Mother, do you want to? Pay attention, who will be drawn with this broom?”
“You, Xiaobao, get out of the way and let me teach her a good lesson. It’s just that there is no king’s law. How come a thief has been raised in the family, and he has learned to steal rice.”
“Who is that thief? There is rice and meat at home, but our sisters insist on eating buns. We still bought the meat, Qu Jingxi, you say, will you give us that meat?”
Qu Jingxi stretched out her hand and stopped in front of Qu Weizhen, and said fiercely: “Mother, have a good New Year, do you insist that our sisters and brothers will be separated? Aren’t they also your flesh and blood?”
Mother Qu choked, waving the broom about to scold her but seeing Zhao Di, Laidi and Daidi stood at the door of the room and looked at her, she suddenly froze and her face flushed red.
Qu Weizhen sneered, turned around and took out a piece of pork to thaw, and then took a small piece of mutton, and then turned back and smiled with Zhao Di: “Eldest sister, it is best to eat mutton in winter, we will make up for it at night and drink mutton. Soup keeps you warm all night.”
In the evening, Mother Qu was sitting at the dining table with an ugly face, Father Qu was fine, but she was not worried. Qu Jingxi looked around and silently got up and went back to the kitchen to bring out the buns.
Mother Qu’s eyes lit up, she looked at Qu Weizhen proudly, and was about to say to the four sisters to eat buns when she saw Qu Jingxi personally serving them a bowl of soup, then picked up the buns and said: ” Mother, I will eat this dish in the future.”
Qu Mu opened her mouth wide.
Qu Weizhen calmly picked up the soup and took a sip, looked at Zhao Di and the others who were restless and said, “This is what my brother has served for you, drink it quickly, let’s eat.”
“Brother, save that dish for tomorrow, let’s eat soup together.”
Mother Qu had tears in her eyes. She wanted to get angry but didn’t dare, so she could only force a smile and said, “Yes, yes, your third sister cooked a lot of food today, so let’s eat first.”
said that he was about to take away the dish in front of him.
Qu Jingxi just held down the bowl and said calmly: “No, I just eat buns, I haven’t eaten them for many years, and I almost forgot the taste of buns. When I came back, Sanjie had already eaten it once. You have to eat it once.”
After saying that, he insisted on breaking the buns and stuffing them into his mouth. The buns made by Qu Mu had less oil and less salt, and the noodles were still thick. How could it be delicious?
Qu Jingxi has not eaten such a coarse meal for a long time, and swallowed it for a long time before swallowing, “It turns out that my sisters have been eating this kind of meal…”
Mother Qu couldn’t help crying bitterly, took his arm and said, “Bao’er, we don’t eat vegetable buns, we eat meat, we drink soup, and we will give them to them in the future. I won’t tell them apart, okay?”
Qu Jingxi smiled at her mother, pushed her soup bowl to her and said with a smile: “Mother, eat it quickly, I don’t want to drink soup or eat right now, I just want to eat buns.”
Mother Qu watched as Qu Jingxi swallowed the two buns little by little, she couldn’t help but lowered her head and wiped away her tears, Father Qu slapped the table and shouted, “Eat!”
The three sisters Zhaodi took up the chopsticks to eat, and Qu Weizhen ate it with relish. Tonight, I’m afraid it’s her who eats the best.
Just eat two steamed buns, and they won’t die. She glanced at Qu Mu and shook her head speechlessly. Jingxi used to eat something like this before, okay?
The next day, Qu Jingxi got up early to cook meat porridge for everyone, and even took out the eggs he bought for everyone to make pancakes. The Qu family had the most hearty breakfast ever.
Qu’s father and Qu’s mother are no longer opposed to the family eating at the same table, but indifferently ignore the four daughters.
Zhao Di and the others were also persuaded by Qu Weizhen to let go after a long sleep. Today, they treated the breakfast with the attitude of welcoming the delicious food. Although they did not speak, they were very excited.
Qu Jingxi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, took a cake and handed it to her father and then to her mother, and then she took one for herself.
Qu’s father and Qu’s mother heaved a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that he would eat vegetable buns again. This is their sweetheart, how could they go to eat buns?
The condition of their family is not that they cannot afford white rice.
