Mrs. Sun turned her gaze to Yang Ruoqing again. There was obviously surprise in her eyes, and more of it was expected. In the end, all the emotions turned into a smile of relief.
"When I was at my mother's house, I never had such delicious fish tofu cooked by her. Sister-in-law Cuilian, you gave me the best advice." Mrs. Sun took the opportunity to praise Wang Cuilian again.
As for Tuoba Xian, Sun really couldn't forcefully praise her on such a matter.
Because Tuoba Xian's level is fundamentally different from that of a woman from a farmer's family. She is the eldest princess of the Liao Dynasty. She knows how to do important things for her family and country. She shouldn't care about small compliments in a small place like the kitchen.
Wang Cuilian felt embarrassed to be praised by Mrs. Sun, especially Yang Ruoqing who also smiled and said: "What mother said is that my aunt has contributed a lot. The garlic she peeled has soul and is the essence of the whole dish."
Wang Cuilian was even more embarrassed and waved her hands repeatedly, "Stop praising me, mother-in-law, if you like, eat as much as you like and eat it while it's hot."
Luo Baobao fed his stomach as quickly as possible, then squatted down in front of the prey he brought back and looked at it excitedly, and how to distribute the total with Yang Ruoqing.
"Just one hare, let's keep it for ourselves. I like spicy rabbit legs."
"There are three pheasants, one from Ga Po's family, one from Tai Ga Gong's family, and one from Wuga Po's family."
Yang Ruoqing nodded with a smile, "Okay, it's all up to you. We'll allocate it as you say."
…
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Baobao brought pheasants to Bao Suyun's house.
Bao Suyun's family was flattered.
Luo Baobao said: "Give it to Aunt Guiling to eat."
Jiang Guiling was drinking a bowl of mushroom and egg soup in her hand. She was more than seven months pregnant, and her belly was as big as a ball. She seemed to be lying upside down when sitting on the chair.
Hearing Luo Baobao's words, Jiang Guiling narrowed her eyes with a smile and thanked her repeatedly.
Yang Ruoqing saw that Jiang Guiling was slightly swollen, so she sat with Bao Suyun and others to discuss the weather.
Mianmian and Baby Luo went to the backyard to pick up the pheasant. Baby Luo took advantage of the fact that no one was around and asked Mianmian in a low voice: "Aunt Mianmian, what did I say at first? I said it was best not to lie. Now Li Wei After being exposed in person, we know that we are not from Yujia Village, but from Changping Village."
When she mentioned that she met Li Wei while picking mushrooms in the mountains today, Mianmian was also filled with embarrassment, and her cheeks turned red all the way to the root of her neck.
"I originally thought that we would never see each other again in the future, but who knew that I would meet him today when I went to the mountains to pick mushrooms. It's really... ugh!"
Mianmian shook her head gently.
Today, there was a difficult road to walk near Sishan Col. They almost got lost. Fortunately, they met two people who went into the mountain to cut down trees. One was middle-aged and the other was young. They looked like father and son.
The third mother and the others hurriedly asked each other for directions. As soon as they said these words, both parties reported their homes to each other. The other party was really Li Wei and his son from Lijiacun.
And Li Wei and his son also knew that they were from Changping Village...
At that time, she and Li Wei both saw each other, but she didn't say anything and kept their heads down, not daring to look at Li Wei.
Fortunately, Li Wei didn't come over to say hello to her or Luo Baobao, and both parties pretended not to know each other.
"Li Wei must think I'm a liar. He was kind enough to save me, but I deliberately lied to him. Alas..."
Mianmian recalled Li Wei's surprised look at that time, and felt uncomfortable all over, and her guilt and guilt became more and more profound.
Baby Luo stood by and pouted, and nodded slightly, "Aunt Mianmian, don't blame yourself too much. Even if you are a liar, I, a little liar, will be with you!"
"However, Li Wei probably wasn't angry, because when he left with his father later, I made a face at him, and he smiled at me. If he was really angry that we had lied to him, he would definitely not Will laugh."
"Since he smiled, it means that he has forgiven us. If we meet him again next time, we will find an opportunity to explain it to him. I believe he will understand."
Hearing Luo Baobao's serious analysis, Mianmian raised her head in surprise, "Are you still thinking about meeting her again next time? That's too much. It's better not to meet her again."
Baby Luo raised his eyebrows: "Hehe, there are some things that Aunt Mianmian can't just do whatever you want. As the saying goes, everything is ape dung!"
"Baby, please stop talking nonsense. It's like ape dung or not. You'll be laughed at to death!"
Mianmian turned her head and glanced around, her face probably red to her collarbone. If he wasn't moulting the pheasant in his hands, he would have jumped up to cover the baby Luo's mouth.
Luo Baobao opened his eyes in confusion, not quite understanding how her casual words aroused such a big reaction from Aunt Mianmian.
Did she say anything outrageous?
Meeting people is all due to fate. There are deep and shallow fates. The shallow ones are just passing by, while the deeper ones can become friends, relatives, or even family members.
"Li Wei's family is from Lijia Village, and we are from Changping Village. Our two villages are right next to each other. I have a feeling that we will meet again in the future." Luo Baobao ignored the blushing face and stood there. He held his chin with his long fingers and said thoughtfully.
Mianmian became distracted again.
Really... will we meet again?
In the past few days, she had been dreaming frequently, and the dreams were all about being kidnapped on the street that day. When she was most afraid, they were all about Li Wei standing up bravely.
Every time she woke up, she had to recall the scene of that day in detail. Although she was still scared, somewhere in her heart, there was an indescribable feeling.
That feeling was brought by Li Wei, and that feeling made her feel... as if there was a little more expectation in her life.
As for what she was looking forward to, Mianmian herself couldn't tell, and she had never thought about it deeply.
…
In the hall in the front yard, Jiang Guiling chatted with her for a while, but finally she couldn't bear the fatigue, so she excused herself and went back to the house to lie down early.
When Bao Suyun and Yang Ruoqing were the only two people left in the main room, Bao Suyun walked to the door, looked outside for a few times, and sat back down again.
"Qing'er, there's something about Mianmian's marriage. Please help me make up my mind to see if that young man can marry me."
Yang Ruoqing sat upright and looked at Bao Suyun seriously, as if she was ready to listen and take him seriously.
Time was tight, and it would be inconvenient to talk about it when Mianmian came back later, so Bao Suyun got straight to the point: "What those matchmakers said before, let alone Mianmian, even I don't like it, so I won't say it."
"What I'm going to talk about now was told by the matchmaker two days ago. I fell in love with him because he belongs to our village."
"Who is the young man in our village?" Yang Ruoqing asked immediately.
Bao Suyun said: "Jiang Xianjun, the grandson of the second brother of Lao Jiang's family, has a relationship with our old Yang family."
Yang Ruoqing's eyes lit up when she heard it was Jiang Xianjun.
"You are handsome first? That's good. He has beautiful growth, sword-shaped eyebrows and double eyelids. He is also tall and thin. His appearance matches Mianmian perfectly!"
"If I remember correctly, they grew up playing house, right?"
