The spicy and sour lotus root is out of the pot.
The snow-white lotus root strips are dotted with red and green peppers, and the hot and sour smell spreads, making you appetite.
Cheng Wanwan took out a plate and took half of it out: "Si Dan, bring it to your grandpa and grandma to try the milk."
After everyone had a good life, she hadn't let her children bring food to the old house for a long time. After meat was no longer a rare delicacy, she could eat something fresh to change her taste.
Zhao Sidan ran very fast and was back in an instant.
The lotus root strips on the table are very popular. They are sour and spicy, crispy and sweet, and very appetizing.
"Mom, this dish is so delicious!" Zhao Sidan even poured the hot and sour soup into his bowl and said with unfinished content, "Can our restaurant also promote this dish? It must be very popular. .”
Cheng Wanwan shook his head: "The restaurant has too many guests, so I'm afraid there won't be enough lotus root belts."
Excessive extraction of lotus root strips will affect the yield of lotus root, and the gain outweighs the loss. However, if only the family eats it, the lotus root strips produced in the two hundred acres of lotus ponds will not be eaten at all. If the lotus root strips are not drawn in time and the density is too high, it will also affect the lotus root. grow up.
Maybe it can be supplied in limited quantities. This matter needs to be discussed with Ergou.
The family had just finished their meal when Aunt Wang's refreshing voice sounded in the yard: "Dashan Niang, our family fried small dried fish today and brought some for the children to try. Four eggs, come on, follow on!"
Because it was brought to Cheng Wanwan's house, the dried fish was wrapped in egg liquid and deep-fried. It was golden and smelled particularly fragrant.
"Thank you Aunt Wang!" Zhao Sidan took the food, "Mom, you eat one first! Sanmao, Xiaohai, come and eat the dried fish!"
Several children ran to the stone table in the yard to share the dried fish.
Aunt Wang pulled Cheng Wanwan to the side of the grapevine and said in a low voice: "Da Shan Niang, I actually want to ask you for help with something."
Cheng Wanwan said while chewing dried fish: "If you have anything to do, just tell me, as long as I can do it."
"That Damai girl is already sixteen this year, so I'm worried." Aunt Wang sighed, "I told her several marriages, but she wasn't satisfied with them, so I was confused, what kind of person did she want to find... …Last night I went to her room and saw her holding a doll in a daze, as if she was in love with spring...I quickly asked Xiaomai, and it turned out that the doll was given by the kid from Dawang.”
Cheng Wanwan's eyes flashed with gossip: "This means that Dawang and Damai, um... they have something to do?"
"Dawang gave Damai something, probably because he likes our Damai." Aunt Wang continued to sigh, "I tested Damai a few words, and this girl didn't seem to object to marrying Dawang. I was embarrassed to go to Mrs. Zhao and tell her In this matter, after all, the girl is the one in our family. It is not good to be too proactive, so can you ask Dashan Niang for help? If Dawang doesn’t have this intention, or Dawang Niang has no idea of getting married, I will stop it immediately. Damai’s thoughts, so as not to make a joke!”
"This little thing is all on me!" Cheng Wanwan said, "I'll go to the old house right now."
At this time, the sky is dark and the moonlight is shining on the earth. People in the village are still busy, and they will say hello warmly when they meet.
The yard of Lao Zhao's house is very lively. The men have gone to the fields to see the rice seedlings. The women are cleaning the yard, washing clothes, and preparing ingredients for tomorrow's business. The children are helping.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here?" Mrs. Sun stood up with a big belly and brought a low stool to Cheng Wanwan, "Donghua, please give me a cup of tea."
Donghua ran in, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Cheng Wanwan.
Cheng Wanwan asked: "His third aunt, your belly is so big, will you give birth soon?"
"It's still early, there's still a month." Mrs. Sun touched her belly and smiled mysteriously, "I went to the city to see the doctor a few days ago, and the doctor said it's definitely my son!"
Cheng Wanwan: "..."
This is going to make my son crazy.
She really hoped it was a son, otherwise Mrs. Sun wouldn't know how to deal with it.
She immediately changed the subject and said to Mrs. Wen: "His second aunt, Dawang must be sixteen years old this year. I wonder if you have seen her?"
"Where do you have time?" Mrs. Wen said while washing vegetables. "My family is very busy every day. Dawang is in the restaurant all day, and he goes to bed when he comes back at night. He really doesn't have time to see each other. My sister-in-law asked, Did you hear about a family with good girls?"
Cheng Wanwan said casually: "How is the Wang family's barley?"
"Da Mai?" Mrs. Zhao was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "This girl is very good. I heard from Xia Hua that she learned embroidery very quickly. Now she is Kong Xiu Niang's proud disciple. Kong Xiu Niang is teaching Da Mai some unique skills. She will definitely be able to do it in the future. Establish a foothold in the embroidery industry."
Wenshi was also very satisfied: "If it's Damai, I don't have any objections, but it mainly depends on Dawang's intentions."
Cheng Wanwan nodded. Although marriage in this era is decided by parents, if the children are unwilling, wouldn't they become a resentful couple?
Just as he was talking, the voices of Dawang and Chunhua came from the door. At this time every day, after the Dahe Banquet closed, the two of them would come back in a carriage with Zhao Ergou. Both of them grew up very fast, and they were still there when they entered. Talking about working during the day.
"Come on, Dawang, grandma wants to ask you something." Mrs. Zhao said with a smile, "You are sixteen this year, have you ever thought about getting a wife?"
Zhao Dawang's face suddenly turned red and he didn't know what to say.
"You kid, why are you so embarrassed?" Old Mrs. Zhao shook her head, "Your aunt has made a good marriage proposal to you. Your mother and I are both going to get married. We will officially come to propose marriage in a few days..."
Zhao Dawang suddenly became anxious: "Which girl, why don't you ask me if I am willing?"
Cheng Wanwan couldn't help but laugh. With this look, it was obvious that she had someone in her heart. She couldn't hold back her smile and said: "She is the barley of the Wang family. I think this girl is quite good. I wanted to keep the wealth from going to others, so I quickly said I’ll give it to you... But Dawang, you don’t seem to be willing to do this, so forget it, I’ll find a good family for Damai again. It’s not a bad idea to give my family three cows..."
"I didn't say I wasn't willing!" Zhao Dawang became anxious, his face turned red like a cooked shrimp, and his voice suddenly dropped, "Just, barley is pretty good..."
After he finished speaking, he turned around and ran away.
Mrs. Zhao laughed heartily: "This kid can't hide his thoughts at all! My second daughter-in-law, when you have free time, go to the city and buy some wedding gifts. If you have some time, we will formally come to propose marriage and bring the two It’s best to decide on the baby before the autumn harvest, maybe you can get pregnant with a big fat boy by the end of the year!”
Mrs. Wen nodded happily: "It all depends on mother's arrangements!"
Mrs. Sun came over and said, "You have met my nephew from my mother's side in the past few days, right? He is tall and strong, honest and hard-working. Isn't he a good match for Chunhua?"
Chunhua was helping to cut vegetables, but when she heard this, her expression suddenly changed.
