When the carriage entered Lijia'ao, Qingsha opened the curtain and stuck out her little head to look out.
Because she had arrived at a familiar place and the carriage had slowed down, Caiwei ignored her.
She looked at Li Yuan, who was still sleeping, and stretched out her hand to push him gently.
"Mom, you've entered Li's house, wake up!"
Li Yuan was not asleep. When she heard the sound, she subconsciously rubbed her temples and then opened her eyes.
Caiwei thoughtfully soaked the handkerchief in a cup nearby, then wrung it out and handed it to her.
"Come on, wipe your face and wake up."
"Okay, thank you Caiwei!"
As soon as Li Yuan reached out to take it, she saw Qingsha holding the carriage door with one hand and waving vigorously with the other.
"Auntie, Shasha, sister, and mother are all here!"
Hearing this, Li Yuan quickly wiped her face and looked outside.
Sure enough, Wang Can and Zheng Zi's daughter-in-law Cheng Xuejiao were seen walking towards this side hand in hand.
Wang Can was very happy to see Li Yuan, mother and daughter.
She let go of Cheng Xuejiao and trotted forward. After Xie Yanzhi stopped the carriage, she quickly climbed onto the shaft.
When Cheng Xuejiao also walked to the carriage, she stretched out her hand to pull him up, and then looked at Li Yuan.
"Sister, I said that today's son-in-law's wine will be held at my old house."
"Okay, but even though it's my son-in-law's drink, I can't give Brother Xie a drink. We have something to do after lunch, so we have to go back first."
Wang Can nodded repeatedly: "Well, I definitely won't do it. Don't worry, sister."
Cheng Xuejiao always felt that she lacked confidence in the Li family because she had never given birth to a child.
However, she was not an awkward person. After getting on the carriage, she waited until Wang Can finished speaking before asking Li Yuan.
"Sister, Can Niang said we will go to your place tomorrow afternoon. Do you think there is anything we need to bring?"
"There's nothing to bring. We have everything we need at home. Just bring your daily changes of clothes."
Cheng Xuejiao thought for a while and said, "Then let's bring clothes and food rations! By the way, eldest sister, my cooking skills are not as good as those of my elder sister-in-law and my second sister-in-law. If I go to your stall to help, as long as I'm not allowed to cook noodles, what else can I do? All is OK.”
When Li Yuan heard this, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, "Okay, who will do what then? When we get home tomorrow, we will get together to discuss it."
The relationship between Cheng Xuejiao and Li Yuan was normal, but they would have to live with someone else for a while and work in their stall, so they wanted to get closer to each other.
Her casual way of chatting started with an embarrassing incident when she was a girl.
"Okay, anyway, as long as I'm not allowed to cook, you can do whatever you ask me to do. When I was a girl, I wasn't very good at cooking. My mother was worried every day, wondering if any daughter-in-law couldn't cook. Queen, no one wants it."
As she spoke, she deliberately said with pride in her eyes: "I told my mother at the time that I would marry someone with only one child in the family. In this way, as long as my parents-in-law are kind and I only have a daughter-in-law, I will definitely It will be good for me. In this way, my mother-in-law will help cook the meals at home, and I just need to be more efficient in other places."
"Then my mother said that my parents-in-law would get old one day, and I would have to take over all the cooking work. She also said that I was so lazy that my children would not be able to eat a bite of the food I cooked, and they would not be able to get anything. Sister , do you know how I answered my mother?"
Li Yuan said nothing, just looked at her and motioned for her to continue.
"I told my mother that I would give birth to a daughter as my first child. In this way, my mother-in-law will take care of my daughter from an early age. When my mother-in-law grows old, my child will definitely be the leader both inside and outside the home. In this way, Why do I need to cook three meals a day by myself?”
Cheng Xuejiao's words inexplicably reminded Li Yuan of a sister who lived in the same dormitory in modern university.
She doesn't know how to cook. The only thing she knows how to cook is probably instant noodles.
She said at the beginning that it didn't matter if she didn't know how to cook, as long as she found a man who could cook.
When the child is born in the future, train the child to do it from an early age, so that she can enjoy ready-made food.
As soon as Li Yuan recovered her divergent thoughts, she heard Wang Can ask: "Third sister-in-law, what will you do if you give birth to a son later?"
"Sons can also learn, and no one stipulates that sons can't cook. Besides, look at how many men in our Lao Li family can't cook? In addition to grandpa, uncle, my father-in-law, and two cousins and Junzi, all of them can cook. The difference is probably whether the cooking is delicious or not!"
This was the first time Wang Can heard someone say this, but it seemed to make sense.
Caiwei, who was listening to the adults talking, heard the words and approached Li Yuan and said softly: "Mom, whenever I have time from now on, I will cook for you!"
Li Yuan thought deeply, smiled, touched her hair, and hummed softly.
Xiao Qingsha was leaning in Wang Can's arms, looking at her mother and sister with her ears raised, and then hurriedly expressed her stance.
"Mom, I will make it for you when Shasha grows up."
After he finished speaking, he remembered that he was leaning in his aunt's arms, and said to Wang Can, "I'll do it for my aunt too."
Seeing this, Li Yuan deliberately made things difficult: "Then do you do it for your mother first, or for your aunt?"
Li Yuan thought she would do something for the little girl, but she turned out to be clever.
When I heard this, I replied directly: "Let's cook it together and eat it together!"
Got it, in no particular order.
Fortunately, she is not the original owner, has read the book, and knows some of the plots in the book.
Otherwise, as a mother, she really deserves to be tasted!

While several people were talking, the carriage had arrived at the old house.
According to the rules of Lijiaao, the newlyweds must set off firecrackers when they return home.
Everyone who hears the firecrackers will rush over to ask for wedding candies to cheer up the newlyweds.
Li Yuan got off the carriage and did not enter the old house.
After Li Jun lit firecrackers at home, when the young and old in Lijiaao came over to ask for candy, she took out three large cloth bags from the carriage and handed two of them to Wang Can and Cheng Xuejiao.
She handed out some at will, and then her aunt took the cloth bag in her hand.
"You and Shaoan take the children in for tea first, and we'll come here!"
Hearing this, Li Yuan asked Xie Yanzhi to rush the carriage, and she led a child into the old house.
As soon as she entered, she saw the third aunt holding a dustpan of fried rice popcorn, with fried peanuts and beans in it.
Yes, this is also what the newlywed mother brings home, but this is given by the family who wants to marry their daughter, and it is also given to everyone who comes to celebrate.
Mrs. Wang and Mr. Li were standing under the eaves. Even though they had no expression on their faces, they were actually looking forward to it.
When I saw Li Yuan and saw that she looked good, I was completely relieved.
As soon as Old Man Li turned around and wanted to chat with someone, Xie Yanzhi came over carrying two large backpacks.
"Master, wait a moment!"
As he spoke, he took out a brand new cigarette rod from his backpack and handed it over.
"Master, Yuan Niang gave this to you."
