Chapter 1018: Turn on the Coquettish Mode
Li Xiuli asked quietly. She knew her mother-in-law was stingy. A large bowl of cornmeal weighed more than ten kilograms. If she wanted another bowl, her mother-in-law would be heartbroken.
"Aunt, I need to borrow a few bowls from your house."
Zheng Xinyue smiled and didn't answer. She turned around and asked Chen Sili's mother for bowls.
With so many people, it was obviously unrealistic to use plates. The dishes were gone in two chopsticks. Could it be considered a treat?
So, even though there were only four dishes, they had to be large and sufficient.
"Yes."
"I have some at home, I'll get them now!"
Chen Sili's mother and Zheng Maoshan's wife answered together. At this time, they wanted to bring everything they could use at home.
"Sister-in-law, can we still roast rabbits?"
Gu Meijiao saw this and hurried over to ask Zheng Xinyue.
"I guess it's not possible. There are too many people. If you like it, I'll roast one for you tomorrow and ask your brother to bring it back to you in the evening."
Zheng Xinyue saw that her sister-in-law was disappointed, so she smiled and pinched her slippery little face to make her a promise.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. Sister-in-law is the best."
After getting Zheng Xinyue's assurance, Gu Meijiao was happy. She took Zheng Xinyue's arm and put her head on her shoulder, starting to act like a spoiled child.
In fact, she is only one year older than Zheng Xinyue, but she just likes to act like a spoiled child with Zheng Xinyue. She admires this capable second sister-in-law who can cook.
She doesn't have such intimate actions with her eldest sister-in-law. She always calls her sister-in-law lightly, and then does what she should do.
Soon, the basins and bowls were brought over. Zheng Xinyue took the big basin into the warehouse and scooped two more basins of cornmeal. Chen Sili took it and kneaded the dough.
The Chen family even contributed their big pot. Zheng Xinyue used her pot to stew fish. There were more people, so she had to put more potatoes. Several children were sent back home by their grandmother to work, and the work of peeling potatoes was contracted by several children.
Chen Sili was carrying a bowl of peeled potatoes and walked to her yard. When she went out, she saw Chen Shuli and Zheng Changshui looking into the yard!
"Sili! Auntie will help you."
When Chen Sili came out, Chen Shuli's eyes lit up immediately. She came over with a smile on her face and tried to get close to Chen Sili.
"No need."
Chen Sili turned around calmly, walked around Chen Shuli's waist and entered her yard.
"What are you so proud of? You haven't married Zheng Laosan yet!"
Chen Shuli stared at Chen Sili's back with a dark face and spat on the ground.
"I went to see, Gao Guilan is in the new house! Hurry up."
Zheng Changshui hit his wife and scolded her in a low voice, angry that she was useless and a little potato could make her eyes straight.
"You find that big catfish, I'll take the opportunity to steal some food."
Before entering the yard, Zheng Changshui ordered his wife.
As long as his eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law were not at home, other people were not a concern in his eyes.
Zheng Xinyue was busy stewing red-braised rabbit meat in the kitchen at this time. She took the potatoes at home to the vermicelli factory to exchange for a lot of vermicelli, both wide and thin.
The rabbit meat was fried with red pepper, and the fragrance drifted from the house to the yard. Zheng Changshui and his wife smelled it as soon as they entered the yard, and they sniffed hard, wishing to keep the smell in their noses.
"Quick, the catfish is there!"
Zheng Changshui held back his saliva, and looked around with a pair of green eyes when he entered the yard. He saw the big catfish swimming back and forth in the bucket at a glance, and he lowered his voice to order his wife.
"Okay, I'll do it."
Chen Shuli wiped the saliva from her mouth, hid the cloth bag she brought in advance behind her, and rubbed the side of the bucket little by little. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she bent down and poured the catfish in the bucket into the cloth bag. Her movements were as fast as lightning, and the catfish was in the bag in almost the blink of an eye.
"What are you doing? Why are you stealing?"
