Chapter 177 Brother and Sister-in-law Come to the Door
"crunch-"
The sound of a wooden door opening.
Jiang Tongmu walked in from outside with a package in his hand.
The two of them curiously leaned over.
"Tongmu, what did you take?" Meng Bujiu asked.
"My second uncle threw the meal in for me. He said I had lost a lot of weight since I came home this time, and he wanted me to replenish my body."
Jiang Tongmu answered truthfully.
After closing the door, he sat down on the windowsill.
Open the package.
There were three meat patties in it, which were very big, a circle bigger than those of Meng Bujiu and his. There was a lot of meat in it, and it was obviously a specially customized version. The meat patties were wrapped with a lot of barbecue, and the skewers had been removed. There were pork belly, pork, lamb, etc., as well as various vegetarian dishes, mixed together, which was very delicious.
Each barbecued meat patty was about the same size as his face.
Jiang Tongmu was speechless.
How can he eat so much?
"Aren't these the meat patties and barbecue from the Jiang Family Snack Shop? Oh my God, you moved their shop here. There are so many, and you can't eat them all anyway. Sell me some of the barbecue and I'll wrap them in the meat patties. If you're not full, I'll give you three more meat patties. How about that?"
Kong Mingxue swallowed his saliva.
I couldn’t be more envious.
Why didn't he think of this way of eating it?
"Okay, how much do you want to pay?"
Jiang Tongmu really couldn't eat it.
If you leave it until tomorrow, it might go bad.
Rather than wasting it or bursting your stomach, it’s better to sell it to him.
"I'll give you three hundred coins, plus three meat patties, okay?"
Kong Mingxue looked at the generous portion of barbecue and said tentatively.
"Okay, I just want the money. I don't want the meat pie. I can't finish it, so I'll give it to you."
Jiang Tongmu poured all the barbecued meat from the two meat patties to Kong Mingxue, and the remaining barbecued meat ball plus two meat patties without anything wrapped in it was enough to eat.
Kong Mingxue took out a piece of silver and handed it to him.
"This is at least half an ounce."
Jiang Tongmu didn't answer.
"All of them are yours. Next time your uncle will give you some, and I'll buy some more. Just consider it as advance payment."
Kong Mingxue had no coins on him and he couldn't find the change.
"Row."
Jiang Tongmu agreed readily.
Meng Bujiu was very familiar with Kong Mingxue and got half of the barbecue.
Both of them are older than Jiang Tongmu.
Naturally, my appetite is bigger, but I can’t finish so much food.
There were six patties left.
Kong Mingxue gave it to Ding Huanfu and Deng Siyuan.
Ever since that quarrel, the relationship among them has never been the same as before. They always go out as a group of four.
But we still have to play.
Six days passed in a row.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and you will sweat even if you sit still.
In the evening, Jiang Fubao sat in her yard to enjoy the cool air. She was only wearing a bellyband.
You can see her round belly from a distance.
I had a very filling dinner.
After burping twice, Jiang Fubao scratched left and right.
"Mom, a mosquito is biting me."
Jiang Fubao groaned because of the itch.
She had bites all over her legs, arms, and even her back.
At least seven or eight.
Mosquitoes love to bite children the most.
The meat is soft and tender and easy to eat.
"I'm going to the river to look for mosquito repellent grass."
Jiang Shoujia was heartbroken when he saw his granddaughter's body was all red. He took a sickle and a bamboo basket and went out.
After a while, he brought back half a basket of grass.
Jiang Fubao took a closer look.
Isn't this mugwort?
Yes, mugwort has the effect of repelling mosquitoes and warding off evil spirits. Hanging it in the house, or drying it and burning it, can prevent mosquitoes from approaching.
In this fictional world, the Dragon Boat Festival does not exist at all.
No wonder you don’t know about mugwort.
I saw my grandfather divide the mugwort leaves into two groups. One group was tied into the shape of a broom and hung in her room, and the other group was pestled with a wooden pestle to make juice and smeared on her body.
Jiang Fubao's body turned from red to green.
Other children are no exception.
Even the adults were smeared with mugwort juice.
After it dries completely, take a shower and you can have a good night's sleep.
After bathing.
Jiang Fubao climbed onto the bed and his two cousins slept on the outside.
Tonight, there are no more mosquitoes buzzing in my ears.
Sweet dreams till dawn.
Jiang Fubao stretched and started to put on his clothes.
Then stuff things under the bed.
She was just like punching a clock in for work.
Doing repetitive things every day has become a habit.
After breakfast.
Qian Xile, who was supposed to go out, looked a little pale, so Zhang Jinlan asked her to stay at home and rest.
The ox cart drove away from Jiangjia Village.
"Grandma, when you come back, please call a doctor for my sister-in-law. She has been feeling unwell for several days."
Jiang Fubao said while leaning in grandma's arms.
"Okay, grandma thinks so too."
When Xile first got married, she was as strong as a calf and could eat and poop a lot.
Why do I feel sleepy all the time and feel uncomfortable from time to time?
I thought she was pregnant.
But if you calculate the date, even if she got pregnant right after getting married, there wouldn't be such a big reaction.
I guess he was sick, but he was just forcing himself to be sick, so his body wasn't fully healed and he got sick again when he was tired.
The more Zhang Jinlan thought about it, the more she thought about it.
"Yamato, let Tongjin replace you in front of the shop today. Send us to the shop later, and you can drive the ox cart to the clinic to invite a doctor. Bring him home to check on Xile. I'm still worried about her."
"Okay, son, I understand."
Jiang Dahe agreed.
Jiang Tongjin, who was standing aside, had a worried look on his face.
When the ox cart passed by Qianjia Village.
That familiar figure was still peeking from behind the stone.
The oxcart left.
Zhu Paner ran towards home.
Two quarters of an hour later.
She and Qian Ping'an walked quickly towards Jiangjia Village.
At that time, Jiang Shoujia was working in the fields with his grandson.
Qian Xile was lying at home.
Jiang Tongtu took his younger brothers and sisters to play in the backyard.
The door is open.
At the end of the Si hour, Zhu Pan'er arrived at Jiangjia Village. As soon as she entered the yard, she shouted loudly.
"Xi Le, your sister-in-law is here to see you—"
Hearing her voice, Qian Xile sat up in bed in shock.
He put on his shoes and walked out.
"Brother, why are you here?" She didn't even want to call her sister-in-law.
"Your sister-in-law and I came to see you." Qian Ping'an's eyes were a little vague.
He lowered his head.
I dare not look at my sister.
The children in the backyard also heard the sound and came forward.
"Oh, have you finished reading? You guys go now. I want to go to sleep." Qian Xile turned around and wanted to go back to the house.
But he was grabbed by Zhu Paner.
"You're already married, why are you still so lazy? It's early in the morning and you don't want to go to work but want to sleep? Your elder brother and I have really spoiled you. Your in-laws must be scolding us behind our backs!
When the time comes, you can say that we didn’t teach you well. Although your parents died early and no one takes care of you, your elder sister-in-law is like a mother. Come back to your parents’ home often and I will explain these social customs to you and teach you.”
Zhu Paner has bullied Qian Xile for so many years.
As a result, he did not forget to teach her a lesson when he was trying to get close to her.
"Get out of here. Why are you pretending to be a good person here? I can sleep whenever I want. How does it bother you? What about my mother's family? Do I even have a mother? Where is my home? From the day I got married, I am a member of the Jiang family!"
