Chapter 1218 The spring breeze of the big city, the bond of the small town
Rhubarb barked twice and then started to wag its tail.
This old dog had followed me and witnessed Chen Xing marrying into the Xiao family.
At the same time, Wu Yuan noticed that Chen Xing had changed her clothes and combed her hair before coming home.
For Chen Xing, she would be too embarrassed to enter Wu Yuan's house unless she was lying.
Even so, as soon as I entered the courtyard and saw Wu Yuan's sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, I still felt a sense of inferiority.
The gap is too big.
I think back to when I married into Liyuan Village with great fanfare.
Who can compare to that scenery?
But what now?
Chen Xing put away the disappointment in her heart, put on a smile and started calling people.
Because Wu Yuan was greater than Xiao, the older generations of the two families basically regarded each other as equals.
So Chen Xing directly caught Yang Luoyan, who was younger than herself, and called her sister-in-law.
Yang Luoyan took the tofu from the enamel pot from the other person's hand and said gratefully: "You really helped me a lot. I'm worried about not having much food for lunch."
Yang Chenyu glanced at the tofu and said pointedly next to Wu Yuan: "This tofu is really white and tender."
Wu Yuan also nodded in acknowledgement.
So much so that the sister-in-law almost got angry when she said the next sentence: "Just howl like this person."
Wu Yuan shook his head decisively without any hesitation.
While his wife was bringing the tofu into the house, Chen Xing made room for the enamel bowl.
Wu Yuan asked: "Has Xiao Wei received any letters since he arrived at BJ?"
Chen Xing was inexplicably excited: "Come here, come here, Boss Wu, he said he worked at Tengda No. 2 Construction, following Pan Mazi."
Wu Yuan nodded: "Then don't worry, the conditions of Tengda 2nd Construction in BJ are very good. Once the project starts soon, I'm afraid I will be busy until the Chinese New Year. There will be no shortage of work."
While talking, Yang Luoyan left and came back.
The white and tender tofu in the enamel pot was replaced by a piece of fragrant bacon.
Seeing this, Chen Xing quickly declined and refused to accept.
I came here to express my gratitude.
How can we thank you more and owe more!
Wu Yuan saw the situation and gave some advice: "Don't be polite, just take it. You three are at home, so don't be afraid. If anything happens, let the village decide."
Although we are neighbors.
But Wu Yuan obviously cannot take other people's affairs on his own shoulders.
Otherwise, the gossip in this village may not be what it will be.
What's more, it's in front of my wife and sister-in-law.
Chen Xing couldn't refuse, so she could only pull Xiao Yan to thank her, and finally said: "Sister-in-law, if you want to make noodles or tofu at home, come directly to my house. I have a noodle machine at home. I also make some tofu and sell it on weekdays.”
Making tofu and selling it is not an easy job.
Hearing this, Yang Luoyan said: "That's really hard work."
The three of them sent Chen Xing and his wife out. Wu Yuan turned around and picked out a lucky goose from the pig pen.
While holding the goose by the throat, Wu Yuan also discovered that there were more than a dozen shelduck seedlings in his circle.
Just like a frightened duck, it was full of food, huddled in a corner, and shivering.
Lifting the goose out of the pigsty.
Wu Yuan turned around and asked his sister-in-law to bring the ax and chopping board. At the same time, he stroked the goose's head and gave her final comfort.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, it only takes a blink of an eye, you have to believe in my sword and ax skills!”
At this time, Wu Yuan felt no guilt at all.
With the ax raised and dropped, this big white goose weighing nearly ten kilograms was saved on the spot. After tidying up the big white goose, I turned around, my sister-in-law got into Santana and lit the fire.
Wu Yuan asked, holding a bowl full of goose meat: "Why are you leaving at this time?"
Yang Chenyu stuck his head out of the driver's window and said, "The two children at home haven't eaten yet. I have to go back and cook."
"How can this be done?" Wu Yuan objected: "The goose died for you. Do you think you can deserve it if you go back now?"
Yang Luoyan, who was choosing the vegetables, laughed out loud and said, "Sister, why don't you go back and bring the two children with you? After you leave, I will help you send the two children back."
Wu Yuan added: "If the eldest brother-in-law is at home, please call him too."
Yang Chenyu shook his head and said: "It's impossible for him to be here."
Yang Luoyan immediately said: "Then it's you three."
Wu Yuan urged: "Hurry up, don't let us wait for you."
Once Yang Chenyu left, Wu Yuan and his wife were the only ones left busy at home.
The couple each have their own division of labor.
Yang Luoyan occupied the kitchen in the small building and made some small pot dishes.
Wu Yuan occupied the east kitchen and personally presided over the big pot dishes, stewing goose in an iron pot and stewing mutton and mushrooms.
The result is burning.
The elders in the living room of the small building all moved to the door of the kitchen.
Two people sat in front of the stove and two stood at the door.
Everyone was talking around Wu Yuan.
“Xiao Yuan, I heard that you made a big splash at BJ this year?”
Wu Yuan stood behind the pot, moving his hands constantly: "It's not bad, it's mainly because I chased him away, and it's not like he made any big moves."
“But there is so much noise in the newspapers now, so you are not afraid...”
These senior figures in the village also came from various movements after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
The sensitivity to this kind of situation is definitely beyond ordinary people.
So the elders couldn't come up with a solution after discussing it in the living room, so they moved to the kitchen to find out what was going on with Wu Yuan.
Yang Zhishu continued: "If there is any trouble this year, if you try to use the village as a shield like before, I'm afraid the village will not be able to bear the consequences."
Lao Xutou directly named him and said: "Your father-in-law is afraid that if there is an eventuality, Bian Xiaosheng or Xu Changsheng will be advantaged in vain."
Accountant Li also took it seriously and said, "That is, once it reaches their mouths, they may not be able to spit it out easily."
Wu Yuan smiled and said: "Dad, Uncle Xu, Uncle Li, and Director Zhao, this year is different from previous years. You can relax, there will be nothing unexpected."
Even so, Party Secretary Yang still asked: "If this happens, can your connections in BJ be of help?"
I can see my father-in-law’s worry.
Wu Yuan simply borrowed the donkey from the **** and said: "Yes! Not only can he help me, but he will also be able to take care of the fallen geese when the time comes."
Yang Zhishu said angrily: "That's good, that's good!"
It’s not that I haven’t lived a good life.
But these years, I have been really scared.
Seeing that they were still a bit resentful, Wu Yuan smiled and said with relief: "Times have changed, and you can put aside your worries for the time being."
Everyone was stunned.
Until the aroma of the goose and mutton gushed out from the two pots.
Lao Xu Toucai suddenly said: "Hey, why are you thinking so much? Now that we are on this path, we must look forward and don't look back."
Wu Yuan threw a piece of Huazi to Old Xu and said, "Uncle Xu's words are quite accurate!"
After saying that, Wu Yuan turned over the pot again and said to Accountant Li and Zhao Furen in front of the stove: "Uncle Li, Director Zhao, don't add any more firewood. Just use the fire at the bottom of the pot as the standard."
