Sheng Guoer said: "I hope Master Zhong can tell the people the recipe of one of the chili sauces."
Zhong Mingyuan asked in confusion: "Why?"
Sheng Guoer smiled slightly and said, "It's quite simple. Winter is coming soon, and every family will save some dried chili peppers. The weather is cold, and my chili sauce recipe can help everyone resist the cold winter."
Sheng Guoer's magnanimity and kindness made Zhong Mingyuan feel a little ashamed. He was obsessed with using food to gain profits, but he forgot that the original intention of making food was for people's health.
Zhong Mingyuan bowed deeply to Sheng Guoer: "Thank you for reminding me!"
Sheng Guoer hurriedly helped Zhong Mingyuan up and said, "What are you doing?"
Zhong Mingyuan said with emotion: "People say that doctors and cooks are the two professions closest to the human body. This is true. I am a cook, but I have forgotten my original intention. I am ashamed and ashamed."
Sheng Guo pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Young Master Zhong is so polite."
The next day, Zhong Mingyuan announced the recipe for making chili sauce in the name of Sheng Guoer and the Zhong family, and also gave a pound of chili sauce to the villagers' families for free to resist the cold winter. For a time, Sheng Guoer and the Zhong family's righteous deeds won everyone of appreciation.
Sheng Guoer also said goodbye to the countryside and returned to Dongxiang Village with her mother.
The house in the village was kept clean by Ma Chunhua, and the kang was heated. After returning, Ma Chunhua and her mother cooked a sumptuous meal for Sheng Guoer.
The night is like water, the autumn wind is blowing, and frost is already coming at night. Sheng Guoer, Ma Chunhua and other family members are sitting together, steaming chicken stewed with mushrooms, a large plate of cold vegetables, braised sorghum rice, and Sheng Guoer's secret braised braised chicken Meat, paired with a pot of old wine, the family ate and drank while talking and laughing.
Uncle Ma was a little drunk, he blushed and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you don't know, Sister-in-law Zhigen scolded everyone who didn't go to her grandson's full moon wine yesterday!"
Mrs. Shen also smiled and said, "He has such a bad temper, are you polite?"
Ma Chunhua swallowed a mouthful of braised pork, then broke off a piece of green onion, dipped it in the sauce, put it in her mouth and chewed it. While eating, she said, "Auntie, let's just go ahead and give you two kilograms of pork, and yours and me." I also helped him along. It’s also two kilograms of pork.”
Sheng Guoer sat cross-legged on the edge of the Kang, took out her money bag and said, "Chunhua, I'll give you the money!"
Ma Chunhua waved her hand and said, "Do we two still need these useless rules? Don't spend all your time looking for me to scold you!"
Chunhua Niang pointed at Ma Chunhua and said with a smile: "This kid is a tiger girl. He can't speak. He even got into a fight with Tieniu a few days ago."
Ma Chunhua hurriedly said: "Mom, what are you talking about!"
Lady Chunhua raised her eyebrows and said, "What? There's nothing you can't say. I don't want you to mess around, but I don't want others to say it."
Sheng Guoer asked: "What's wrong? Tell me."
Ma Chunhua said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. Just say it."
The day before Sheng Guoer came back, Ma Chunhua and Tieniu were working together in the workshop. The two got into a dispute over whether to put more or less spicy in the chili sauce. Tieniu turned around and squatted on the bridge with angrily. Ma Chunhua kicked her in anger. Tie Niu was unprepared and was kicked into the river by Ma Chunhua. Ma Chunhua did not stand firm and fell into the river, hitting Tieniu who had just emerged. Tieniu's eyes were filled with stars.
Sheng Guoer and Shen both laughed when they thought of the embarrassing appearance of these two people.
Chunhua said bitterly: "This bastard, I will deal with him sooner or later!"
Sheng Guoer smiled and said, "You kicked someone and you still hate him. I think you will be his too sooner or later."
Ma Chunhua's expression became tense and she said loudly: "No way, who would like that tough guy!"
Shen smiled and said nothing.
Sheng Guoer hugged Chunhua and said, "Hitting is kissing and scolding, and it's love. If you like me, you'll kick me! Don't you think you're kicking me?"
Ma Chunhua smiled and squeaked the fruit: "I told you to talk nonsense, I told you to talk nonsense!"
Sheng Guoer said while hiding, "Oh, if you keep messing around with me, I'll go find Tieniu to punish you!"
The adults also laughed when they saw the two girls laughing and playing.
Only now did Mrs. Shen see the innocent side of Sheng Guoer. It seemed that her daughter had only now looked the way she should have at this age after she recovered.
Sheng Guoer actually enjoys her current life. It is natural to develop, but she cannot throw away her life. There is still some time before spring. Sheng Guoer feels that she is now a person with more money, and her house has been renovated. Now, the villagers also have some extra money. As for the future, let’s take our time.
After eating, Ma Chunhua helped clean up and then went back. Sheng Guoer and Shen went to bed early after being tired for a day.
The second day.
"Wake up, Guo'er, I'm going to your aunt's house today." Mrs. Shen called her daughter to get up while cooking.
Sheng Guoer stretched and said lazily after getting up: "What are you going to do at my aunt's house?"
Mrs. Shen smiled mysteriously and said: "Your old lady, I know what happened to you. She said that such a good girl from our Sheng family must find a good husband."
Sheng Guoer was stunned when she heard this: "When did this happen?"
Mrs. Shen brought the porridge, wiped her hands and said, "Look what time it is now."
Sheng Guoer raised her eyes and looked at the sun. It was probably noon.
Mrs. Shen said: "You child was too sleepy, so I didn't call you. I went to the market in the morning and happened to meet your old lady buying vegetables, so she told me about it."
Sitting next to Guo'er, Mrs. Shen said, "You see, although Chunhua and Tieniu are fighting, anyone with a discerning eye can see that these two children are together sooner or later. Tieniu said he wanted to marry you before, but I can't do it either. Although Grandma Wang’s house is nice, Tieniu is too small and not suitable for you.”
Sheng Guoer ate silently and didn't answer. Mrs. Shen sighed and said, "I don't want a life of great wealth and wealth, I just want you to marry into a good family."
Sheng Guoer raised her head and said, "Mom, I'm still young, I don't want to get married!"
Mrs. Shen stood up after hearing this and said with a look of disbelief: "What are you talking about? How old are you if you don't get married?"
Sheng Guoer looked at Mrs. Shen helplessly and said, "Mom, I'm only fifteen!"
Mrs. Shen turned her face away, put her hands on her hips and said, "I gave birth to you when I was fifteen!"
Sheng Guoer almost spat out a mouthful of porridge. They said people in ancient times got married early, but she was really uncomfortable with it when it happened to her.
In modern times, an older leftover woman is single, but in ancient times, she had to marry a married woman.
Mrs. Shen patted the table and said: "This matter, you have to go or not. Your old lady is a matchmaker and has a lot of young masters. Our family is not what it used to be, so let's pick and choose. ah!"
Blind date, it seems that this thing has been popular since ancient times!
Sheng Guoer didn't want to go, but she couldn't resist her mother's insistence, so she had to agree to go see her old lady. But she still shouldn't be too serious about the blind date.
Naturally, Mrs. Shen agreed. Even though Sheng Guoer was a little passive, Mrs. Shen still dressed her up carefully.
Sheng Guoer's aunt lived on the edge of Xifeng Village. When Sheng Guoer was walking on the road, the villagers all asked, "Hey, Guoer is dressed up so beautifully to go on a blind date!"
"If you really go on a blind date, you must be careful!"
The villagers were all joking, and Sheng Guoer felt a little embarrassed.
The boat crossed the river and reached the other side. Sheng Guoer jumped onto the shore lightly, and then helped Shen to get ashore.
Mother and daughter held hands and left for the old lady Sheng Fengying's house.
"Oh my God, why are you two here? Tell me how lazy you are. Your mother and I met at the market, and your mother said you were sleeping. Girls are very capable. But you slept in!" The hot-tempered old lady Sheng Fengying opened the door and scolded Sheng Guoer as soon as she saw her.
"Hurry into the house, what are you doing standing there in a daze?" Sheng Fengling let Sheng Guoer in.
When she arrived at her aunt's house, Sheng Fengying took out various melon and fruit snacks for Sheng Guo'er to eat, and said with a smile: "Eat, kid, you're welcome, eat quickly!"
Sheng Fengying is such a person. He talks quickly and forgets everything after he says it.
Sheng Guo'er smiled helplessly. Sheng Fengying looked at Sheng Guo'er and said, "Look at our Guo'er, how beautiful it is. I heard from my second brother that you opened a shop in the countryside?"
Mrs. Shen smiled and said, "I sold it. The child said that this shop was not suitable for business, so he went back."
Sheng Fengying slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, I said it's not easy to hang out in the countryside. I still don't believe it when my second brother told me. A few days ago, my third sister said that Guo'er had made a lot of money, and she also said that Shuibo Mountain was wiped out. It shocked me."
Shen said with a smile: "You heard Third Sister exaggerating. Guo'er and I just went to cook a meal for the military camp and ask for a reward." Shen said this deliberately in an understatement, because she knew that Sheng Fengying was quick to talk. He is kind-hearted and can talk to everyone.
So she didn't want to cause any trouble to the girl. So Shen changed the topic and said, "Sister Four, you said you would arrange a blind date for our Guoer family. How is this going?"
Sheng Fengying's voice was loud and loud, and she almost shattered the eardrums of Sheng Guoer and Sheng Guo'er.
"It's been prepared a long time ago. Just wait, you damn ghost, take out my book!" Sheng Fengying shouted to her fourth uncle who was busy with the meal on the opposite side.
The fourth uncle didn't like to talk and didn't respond. Sheng Fengying pointed at the kitchen and said, "Look at it, it's so stubborn that three sticks can't even make a fart out of it!"
After saying that, Sheng Fengying got up and walked towards the kitchen. She was plump and walked gracefully. Sheng Fengying took out a notebook from the house, walked to Guo'er and sat down. She opened the notebook and said, "You Look at what I have chosen for you, some are from Yuan Yuan’s wife’s family, and some are from Yuan Yuan’s wife’s family.”
Sheng Guoer waved her hands quickly and said, "Auntie, I just came to see you today. Besides, my sister Yumei hasn't gotten married yet, so I'm not in a hurry."
Sheng Fengying said heartbrokenly, "I just wanted to deal with you two together."
Then Sheng Fengying took out a birthday post and handed it to Shen and said, "Brothers and sisters, do you know whose birthday this is?"
Mrs. Shen shook her head, and Sheng Fengying said, "This belongs to Lin Mingyuan, Lin Mingyuan's wife. He asked me to find Yumei."
Sheng Guoer was stunned when she heard this, thinking, could it be that Sister Yumei and Lin Mingyuan are in a relationship? When did this happen? I was so busy that I didn’t even ask!
