The Vicious Fat Wife Dressed as a Disabled General

Chapter 212 A chance to be alone

"Uncle Zhang, how do you know that I lack this?"

She was worrying about how to grind the beans, and originally planned to smash them with a stone, but Uncle Zhang brought him a stone mill, which was so heavy that it was not easy to bring it over with a bamboo raft.

"How can this family do it without a stone mill? We didn't have time to prepare a housewarming gift for you, so don't dislike it."

Jiang Zhinuan was as happy as a child, how could he dislike him.

But after hearing that Uncle Zhang brought her a gift, she realized that this stone mill was brand new. No wonder it took so long for Uncle Zhang to buy soybeans. It seemed that he bought this mill specially.

She knew that it was a gift from Uncle Zhang on behalf of him and Brother Shuang Zhu, so she didn't mention how much the thing was and she accepted it openly.

If you mention money at this time, it will really hurt your feelings.

Jiang Zhinuan rolled around the stone a few times, then called his uncle to help him carry it to the yard above, and put it down next to the kitchen.

Seeing that she really likes her, Uncle Zhang couldn't help smiling. It doesn't matter how high or low it is to send something, just send it to your heart.

He didn't know that it was a coincidence that Jiang Zhinuan needed this thing to make tofu, and he caught up.

Jiang Zhinuan soaked the soybeans bought by Uncle Zhang in warm water. Afraid of running out of time, Jiang Zhinuan had to test the temperature with his hands from time to time, and when the water cooled down, he immediately added some hot water into it.

Normally, before making tofu, the soybeans have to be soaked in water for one night, and the beans can only be ground after they are completely swollen.

But time is running out right now, and it is impossible to make tofu tomorrow morning after soaking overnight.

Jiang Zhinuan regretted ordering this dish of tofu with scallions, but nothing is difficult in the world if there is a heart.

The soybeans bought by Uncle Zhang are all new beans from last autumn, not old beans, so it’s easier to soak them. Let’s soak them for three or four hours first, and then come back after dinner. Stones have ground it.

Tonight, Uncle Zhang and Brother Shuangzhu didn't go back, and Aunt Su also stayed.

After all, there are a lot of things to do at the banquet tomorrow, so I have to help early in the morning.

After Jiang Zhinuan soaked the beans, he started to make dinner. For the heart, liver and lungs that were washed in the afternoon, he had a spicy stir-fried stew, served with rice, and had a simple meal.

The two children were too young to eat spicy food. Jiang Zhinuan gave them pig ears and boiled two bowls of goat's milk, which was quite nutritious.

The yard was brightly lit, and it was very lively.

After dinner, Aunt Su grabbed the bowl and was stopped by Jiang Zhinuan, who passed the lantern over: "Madam Su, thank you for coming to this reed marsh to help catch four chickens and four ducks. The big cock was put in before, but the small chickens can’t do it.”

At night, Jiang Zhinuan actually asked Aunt Su to catch chickens and ducks in the reed marsh.

Both Di Qing and Zhang Shuangzhu felt that something was wrong, and Di Qing grabbed her clothes: "Catch it tomorrow, because the vision is not good at night."

"No, it's too late tomorrow, so I have to kill and deal with it later."

"I'll go."

"Brother Shuangzhu, you have to grind beans for me later, this is physical work."

Aunt Su was stunned for a while holding the lantern, and said quickly, "I'll just go."

Uncle quickly followed: "I'll help."

Jiang Zhinuan hurriedly stopped him: "Uncle, please help take An Bao and Ning Bao first, and put them to sleep."

"I'll do it..." Just as Di Qing opened his mouth, Jiang Zhinuan glared at him again.

Then she picked up another lantern and handed it to Uncle Zhang: "Ms. Su may not be able to do it alone. How about, Uncle Zhang, please go and help me. We have a small number of people and we have arranged other things. It is not convenient for Di Qing."

Uncle Zhang tightened his grip on the lantern pole, seeing only a dim lantern shining in the dark reeds on the other side of the river, without any hesitation, he took a bundle of ropes and put it on his back basket and went.

Only then did everyone understand what Jiang Zhinuan meant. She just wanted to give them some time to be alone.

Zhang Shuangzhu sighed: "Actually, we all think that my father is too hard to live alone, but the eyes of others have to pay attention to it. He is old and can't be safe at the end of the day."

Jiang Zhinuan frowned, and lowered his head to wash the dishes: "Brother Shuangzhu, what are you talking about? Isn't it just to catch a chicken and a duck, why is it lost at the end of the festival? Besides? You think too much."

Zhang Shuangzhu didn't speak any more, just said: "When will the beans be ground?"

"Let me see later if the soybeans are soaked?"

She is a little unhappy, people live for themselves, why do they have to care about other people's eyes?
Besides, they are childhood sweethearts, even if they are friends who grew up together, they still have feelings, so why do they have to avoid suspicion even when they meet each other?
Jiang Zhinuan did it on purpose today, just to create a chance for the two elders to get along alone and let them have a good talk.

So as not to leave any regrets in the future.

……

Aunt Su is indeed good at catching chickens, and she has also caught chickens.

But in the middle of the night, it was pitch black in the reeds, where could she catch chickens with this lantern?
When he was at a loss, Uncle Zhang rushed up: "Fang, let me come."

Aunt Su froze for a moment.

Ah Fang was her baby name, and since she got married, no one has ever called her by it.

This sentence Ah Fang instantly pulled her into the memory. In the past, she always thought that in this life, she would definitely marry her brother A Niu.

But the sky failed, and when they reached the age to talk about marriage, the old gentleman who had a compatible horoscope said that the two of them had a compatible horoscope and they would never get married.

Although the two of them have already secretly agreed, but in this age of parents' order and matchmaker's words, it doesn't matter whether a man and a woman have feelings at all. Originally, the parents of both parties saw that the two children were willing, and they were also willing to become in-laws, but the result of the combination of horoscopes After coming out, the matter went cold.

First, the Zhang family got engaged quickly, and the Su family was not to be outdone, and immediately married off their daughter.

The two of them have missed each other since then, because they were both in the same town, and everyone knew about their childhood sweethearts, so after they got married, they could only avoid suspicion, and when they saw each other on the street, they tried to avoid it as much as possible.

After half a lifetime like this, life is considered to be stable.

But since the two of their wives passed away one after another, the two met at the market and exchanged a few words of greeting, and the rumors spread.

In the future, don't talk about talking anymore, you won't even see each other.

Speaking of which, Aunt Su was so active in helping Jiang Zhinuan rescue Di Qing and the two children who were tied up in the Huang Daxian Temple, probably because of Uncle Zhang.

However, there were many people at that time, and the incident was full of turmoil. Aunt Su just hid in the crowd and glanced at Uncle Zhang.

If it was a serious meeting, it was the last time she helped Jiang Zhinuan deliver things back together, and met in the reed marsh last time, but that time, the two of them didn't speak.

Uncle Zhang's "A Fang" just now really made people sigh.

Aunt Su didn't dare to answer, and didn't look back, she carried the lantern and walked deep into the reed, she just muttered: "How big a duck should I catch?"

"Let me come, the road among the reeds is not easy to walk at night, you can go back." Uncle Zhang followed up a few steps and walked in front of Aunt Su.

Aunt Su looked at his still hunched back, and her eyes suddenly became moist. The former Brother A Niu was no longer what she used to be, and she was no longer the A Fang who called him Brother A Niu delicately.
