Chapter 9

Liu Yun naturally didn't want to go to see Qin Zhanguo.She is busy with her road to wealth, how can she think of the emotionless Qin Zhanguo who is far away from home.It's just that Qin Laoshi and his wife said so, so she naturally pretended to be virtuous.

Although it's just pretending, the matter of going to the army to see Qin Zhanuo is already a certainty.

The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when the son-in-law and the girl return to their natal home.

Early in the morning, Gao Cuihua distributed all the things that should be brought, two catties of stewed meat and one canned food for each family.If it wasn't for the stewed meat being made by her own family, she would really be reluctant to part with it, it's only one yuan and forty cents a catty.

Qin Dazhou hugged Wang Lin and went back to her natal home with Li Mei.Liu Qiaohui and Liu Yun are from the same village, and Gao Cuihua is going to let the two families go back together, so it is good to have a companion.

"Mom, the Warring States period didn't go home. If I go with them again, they will have to gossip again." Liu Yun would not leave with Liu Qiaohui, and she didn't want to feel uncomfortable after celebrating the new year.

After hearing this, Gao Cuihua also felt that it was reasonable, so she asked her to go home first with her things
When they arrived at the door of the house, Zhang Liu had already picked up vegetables by the door with a chair and was waiting.In the howling cold wind, her thin body appeared even thinner.

Perhaps it was true that blood was thicker than water, and Liu Yun's eyes blurred all of a sudden. "Mom, I'm back."

Hearing the voice, Zhang Liu raised his head, and saw that it was indeed his elder girl who had returned.She hurriedly stood up and ran over, "Why is it so early, I should have waited for the morning to warm up." She led him into the house, and said, "You haven't had breakfast yet, I'll make it for you."

Liu Yun hurriedly took Zhang Liu's hand, "Mom, don't worry about it, I ate it." Then she took out the things in her hand, "Mom, this is stewed pork. I will make it for you at noon. Keep it delicious." .I'll teach you how to do this if you like. "

"Braised meat, I know this. Your third uncle bought it a few days ago. Your third aunt was afraid of being eaten, so she secretly hid it when I passed by. Who cares about her."

"Mom, we don't care about other people's. I made this stewed pork. I will keep you eating enough."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Liu was amazed, "Why do you know how to do this?"

"The last time I went to the town, I saw a wandering doctor who said it. He said that there is such a thing in the county, so I wrote it down. I went back and thought about it myself, and I really made it."

"I didn't expect my girl to have such a talent." Zhang Liu laughed, his eyes narrowed into a line from a smile, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes deepened.

Liu Yun took her mother's hand and smiled triumphantly, "That's right, I don't care who the girl is." She looked around the room, "By the way, my brother, why haven't I seen him?"

Zhang Liu's face changed, "It's okay, he went out to do some errands, and he'll be back later. You sit down first, and I'll prepare the lunch." After saying that, he turned and went to the kitchen.

From the looks of it, something is wrong. Could it be that something happened to Liu Cheng?It doesn't look like it, and my old lady doesn't seem to be in a hurry.

At noon, Liu Cheng went home, and Liu Yun was relieved.

As soon as Liu Cheng came home, he saw his sister and greeted her happily, then turned around and went to the kitchen to help Zhang Liu cook.Liu Yun also got up to help, but when she walked to the door, she heard a quarrel inside, and she seemed to hear Zhang Liu say, "Old Shitou's house, betrothal gift, daughter."

When he was about to listen closer, Zhang Liu turned around and saw Liu Yun.

Liu Yun didn't listen anymore, and opened the door and came in, "Mom, let me do it. I learned the craft from my in-laws and sister-in-law these days, and we agreed."

When Zhang Liu heard that his daughter could cook, she laughed happily, "Okay, then mom will enjoy the blessing of a daughter today. I'll go and clear the table first."

"Okay." Liu Yun rolled up her sleeves and started cooking.

She is very particular about cooking, and the condiments she uses are plentiful, which is different from the convenience-oriented approach in the village.Even if it is a very common material, the meals made are different.

One stir-fried pork with celery, one stir-fried braised pork, braised fish, fish-flavored shredded pork, and braised pork ribs.

After the dishes were served on the table, Zhang Liucai really believed that his girl had really improved a lot. The table was full of color and fragrance, and it looked better than his own craftsmanship.

She took a sip of the stewed pork with chopsticks, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes, and then she laughed, "My daughter's cooking skills are really good. It's much better than your third aunt's cooking skills."

Liu Yun's third aunt is a well-known chef in the village, and she is always invited to serve as the cook when someone hosts a banquet at home.With this skill, she has been walking sideways in the Liu family.

"I think my little girl is just as good as she is, and she's a blockbuster." Liu Cheng also picked up the shredded fish-flavored pork with his chopsticks, and couldn't stop after putting it in his mouth.

"It's really good."

As the saying goes, to keep a man's heart, you must first keep the man's stomach.At the beginning, Liu Yun worked hard to keep the heart of her wealthy husband, but unfortunately he still disappeared.But now it's really useful.

After the meal, Liu Cheng rushed to clear the table and wash the dishes, so that Zhang Liu and Liu Yun could have a private conversation.

The two entered Liu Yun's room. There were no flowers in it, but a spice bag was placed.There is a faint fragrance in the room.

As soon as Zhang Liu sat down, she asked, "Is their family treating you badly? Look at how thin you look, with a sharp chin." Since the girl entered the door just now, she wanted to ask this question Well, why did my round girl become like this when she went to the Qin family.

"Mom, everything at home is fine, but I thought I was too fat before, so I lost weight on purpose."

She is very satisfied with her current appearance.Using those maintenance and exercise methods in the previous life, the skin has also improved. After losing weight, I did not expect that the facial features are also very delicate. With the temperament of the previous life, the appearance of the whole person has changed a lot.Thinking about it, it doesn't make sense that Liu Changchang's features are beautiful, and his own face is crooked. Looking at it, his face is somewhat similar to Liu Cheng's, except that her eyes are bigger, like Zhang Liu's. Hydrating and moist.She braids her hair casually every day, and the heavy cotton clothes she wears cover it up a bit.

Zhang Liu was unhappy, "Is it easy to lose some weight?"

"Mom, don't worry, people in the city call it healthy and beautiful. Too fat is not healthy."

"Are you beautiful or not?" Zhang Liu tapped Liu Yun's forehead, "Warring States is not at home, so don't talk about those beautiful or not, maybe they are going to gossip."

Liu Yun smiled, "Got it Mom, look at my body, how can I see beauty or ugliness." In order to change the subject, she continued: "By the way, Mom, you and my brother talked about that old man in the kitchen before. What's going on with the Stone House?"

Sure enough, Zhang Liu was stunned after hearing the words, and the smile on his face disappeared.

Seeing the situation, Liu Yun knew that something was wrong. "What's the matter, Mom, I'm an adult too, don't hide anything from me about the family."

"Hey, it's not your brother. He fell in love with Shi Xiaoyue, the daughter of the old Shitou's family. But the old Shitou's family didn't like our poor family, so they deliberately asked for a gift of 300 yuan. You say no one is a native Rich man, how could he get so much money as gift money, plus the other three major items, so it would cost five or six hundred."

The sum of deposits of ordinary people over the years may not be so much. This old Shitou's family is indeed a lion.

"What does that brother think?"

Zhang Liu sighed, "Hey, since I went to Old Shitou's house with him to ask for a marriage last time and was kicked out, he decided to stop thinking about it. I didn't expect that Shi Xiaoyue ran out to look for him again today, crying. He went again. I was just angry with him for not living up to expectations."

Seeing Zhang Liu's powerless face, Liu Yun felt uncomfortable.He stretched out his hand to hug Zhang Liu's arm, and comforted him: "Mom, my elder brother is a good-looking talent, so you don't have to worry about finding a wife, don't worry."

"Hey, after all, I'm still useless. My family is poor, and it's difficult for your brother to find a wife." She really felt uncomfortable. She was such a good-looking son, but she had to suffer this kind of anger.

Liu Yun didn't know how to persuade these things. After all, Liu Cheng's personal feelings were also involved in it, and it wasn't just her and Zhang Liu's personal wishes that could be decided.

Before leaving, Liu Yun stuffed Zhang Liu with 20 yuan.Of course Zhang Liu didn't pick it up, and he wanted to go back.Liu Yun had no choice but to say that it was her son-in-law who honored her, and if she didn't answer, she would have slapped her son-in-law in the face.Only then did Zhang Liu take it, still talking about her son-in-law Qin Zhanguo's filial piety.

Liu Yun was speechless, cooperating with himself to honor his mother, and let others bear the good name.

When I went back, it was still sent by Liu Cheng.On the way, Liu Yun told Zhang Liu's thoughts, and she wanted to know what Liu Cheng was thinking.If she just talked about the 600 yuan dowry gift, she is confident that she can earn it as soon as possible, but what she wants to know more is whether this daughter-in-law is worth the whole family's effort.

After hearing what his sister said, Liu Cheng was silent for a while, and the two walked quietly for a while before he raised his head, "Sister, it's all right. Xiaoyue came to me today because she told me about her getting married. I came here today to stop thinking about it, and we will never get in touch again in the future."

Liu Yun turned her head, just in time to see the melancholy flashing in Liu Cheng's eyes.It turned out that Liu Cheng lost his love today, and the young man's first love was strangled in the cradle by reality.She suddenly realized that she was very selfish. In fact, in this matter, it was not Zhang Liu and her who were hurt the most, but her elder brother in front of her, this kind and gentle man.

Perhaps what Shi Xiaoyue came to end today was not the relationship between the two, but Liu Cheng's dream of pure love.No matter how beautiful love is in front of reality, it is not worth mentioning.
