MTL - 70s: Dressed As a Villain’s Wife-Chapter 74 Found a surprise.
It's hot, roll to the edges and corners, Su Xiaoman pulls on him like an octopus.
Sleep warm and comfortable.
The next morning lazily reluctant to lift the quilt, Xie Mingtu ran out early to repair the house, went back to fetch water, cleaned the surrounding yard, and cooked porridge.
As soon as Su Xiaoman woke up, she had warm sweet porridge to eat. This kind of small life was really comfortable.
Unfortunately, it can't be too long, she has to report to the new unit, but this matter is not in a hurry, she has just been transferred here, just happened to meet the organization's abolition and branch, and she was assigned here The local song and dance troupe went to the side.
In recent years, with the popularity of large-scale musicals, the art troupe has expanded more and more, and a lot of money has been spent. Recently, the staff has been reduced.
In other words, she is not a literary soldier now, but a member of the regional Beijing Art Song and Dance Troupe. She will go through the formalities in a few days.
She's pretty good. The awards she won earlier allowed her to be accepted by a singing and dancing troupe, and some people had to go back and find other jobs.
Of course, they also received some subsidies.
Su Xiaoman has never worked in a song and dance troupe. For this matter, I don’t know if I can do it. I have to try it. Maybe I can meet some interesting friends and work in the song and dance troupe It's much more free than in the art troupe. Besides going out to perform, you should be able to go home after rehearsal.
She hasn't reported to the new unit yet!
Xie Mingtu is studying in the school, not only does he get part of the stipend every month, but he can go home freely after class. They can spend a lot of time together, which makes the couple very happy.
Su Xiaoman put on her clothes, she was reluctant to get off the heated kang, Xie Mingtu set up a small square table for her on the bed, and brought a bowl of warm sweet porridge, Su Xiaoman took a spoon and tasted two sips, "Brother Xiaotu , can I have noodles next morning?"
Xie Mingtu can't do anything else, only cook porridge, rice soup, steamed buns, Su Xiaoman can't get up in the morning, usually Xie Mingtu helps with breakfast, but she doesn't want to eat rice porridge and pickles, and sweet porridge Too sweet, "I want something salty, I want to add chili peppers, and I want chili peppers made by grandma."
Xie Mingtu spoiled: "Okay, next time you get up and call me, I'll cook noodles for you... Do you want to eat noodles now? Brother Xiaotu will go down to you."
Cooking noodles is not the same as cooking porridge. Here, briquettes are burned. The coal stove has been burning from morning to night. There is a large pot on it. The air warms the whole house, and the cooked porridge is placed in boiling water. You can eat it hot at any time. The noodles are different. The noodles must be eaten freshly cooked, otherwise they will become batter.
"I can't do it today, let's eat it tomorrow, I have enough for this bowl of porridge."
Xie Mingtu nodded with a smile, "Does Manman want to eat frozen persimmons? A lady nearby gave it to her. The roof of her house was broken in the morning. More than a dozen fiery red persimmons covered with white snow, I looked fresh, and after a few more glances, she gave me two."
"Frozen persimmons?" Su Xiaoman was very curious, she had never heard of this way of eating? Is it to put the persimmons outside to freeze? Wouldn't it be frozen into dried persimmons? Or become something else?
"I want to try it."
"Okay." After Xie Mingtu kissed her on the forehead, he turned to go out, and after a while, he came back with a big bowl of things, just a big yellow iron bowl, containing two A red persimmon with some water in the bowl.
At first glance, it did not look like a persimmon, but two freshly beaten orange-red egg yolks in the bowl.
The color is very beautiful, a little soft and seems to be as fragile as the egg yolk.
"How do you eat this? Frozen persimmons, could it be frozen inside?" Su Xiaoman poked on the persimmons curiously, Xie Mingtu handed her a straw, Su Xiaoman was stunned, she I inserted the straw into it, took a sip, and found that the frozen persimmon was interesting.
There are a lot of soups and water in it, and when you drink it, there are some ice slag, sweet, ice honey juice, under such dry conditions, drinking this stuff is really refreshing, A little bit of ice.
It's the same as eating popsicles in the cold weather.
"It's so sweet, you can also drink Mingtu." Su Xiaoman swallowed the sweet water in her mouth, leaving some ice residue on the tip of her tongue, she chewed it, it was crunchy.
Xie Mingtu lowered his head and took a sip, frowned, "It's too cold, Manman eat less."
Su Xiaoman nodded, smiled and rubbed his face, "You eat, then you eat."
Xie Mingtu thought it was too sweet, but such an ice thing was not suitable for Su Xiaoman to eat too much, so most of it went into his stomach.
Su Xiaoman murmured: "I don't know how this iced persimmon is made. Let's do some next year."
"There are so many persimmons on the window sill, it looks very prosperous."
Xie Mingtu: "…"
After breakfast, Su Xiaoman and Xie Mingtu planned to visit his third uncle Xie Zhongqi's house. Xie Mingtu kissed his grandmother, so he wanted to see each other. Now he lives in this courtyard, or he will go there in time See you, it's not good to be approached by someone.
The two brought some candy and cakes, and asked someone about the place. They found the third uncle's house not long after, and the two courtyards were only separated by two alleys.
Knocked on the door, they happened to be at home, Xie Mingtu and Su Xiaoman saw a lame middle-aged man, needless to say, this man is probably his third uncle Xie Zhongqi, and there is another My uncle, Xie Chengcong, lives in the staff room of the unit.
"You...you are?! Ah!" When Xie Zhongqi saw the young man and woman outside, his eyes widened immediately, this, this...how is this possible? !
The young man was wearing a cotton coat, and he knew that handsome face in ashes. It was him... No, they don't look the same, this young child looks too good Now, it's a little better than the second brother of the year.
Needless to say, he already understood the identity of the young man in front of him.
…This is her little sister's son? !
They all say nephew Xiao, but he looks too similar? ! Obviously he has several uncles, why do they look like...
"Old Xie, what happened?!" Gao Mengyue shouted inside.
"The little nephew brought his daughter-in-law to our house."
"Xie Mingtu."
"This is his daughter-in-law Su Xiaoman."
Gao Mengyue came out of the room, and her expression changed as soon as she saw the young man and woman outside.
"Little sister's youngest son?! His daughter-in-law?"
Gao Mengyue hated in her heart, so his Jiang family made such a thing inexplicably, how did she find out that Jiang Yantang was not her son? This newly found young son actually looks...he even has the surname Xie!
How can he be named Xie? !
No wonder Xie Yazhi was thinking about a crooked idea. Well, it really is a dog that bites and doesn't bark. Xie Yazhi doesn't say anything, doesn't want anything, and is married to a good husband. The days were going well, and now I went back to their home to thank them.
"This is your third aunt."
Gao Mengyue forced a smile, "Little nephew? Your mother worked so hard to get you back, why hasn't your surname changed to Jiang? Why did you hear your uncle say your surname? Xie? Your mother gave you the surname Xie? What do you say? His grandparents will allow you to follow our mother's surname Xie?"
"I was born in Xiejia Town."
Gao Mengyue: "You were born in Xiejia Town? We know? Our family hasn't returned to Xiejia Town for several years..."
Su Xiaoman felt that the third uncle and third aunt were very surprised when they saw Xie Mingtu, too, it was said that Xie Mingtu looked like his second uncle, no wonder they all showed frightened faces.
It's just that Su Xiaoman thought it was very strange. When Xie Yazhi saw Xie Mingtu before, she didn't have such a big reaction.
She didn't take into account that Xie Mingtu's "eighteen changes in men's college" in the past two years, the accumulation of a little change is very amazing, now not only is his simple appearance outstanding, his temperament and The momentum was even more unusual. When Xie Zhongqi and Gao Mengyue saw it, they were immediately intimidated.
None of them thought that this little nephew from the countryside looked so good, and he looked like the second brother Xie back then.
children.
"Come in and meet the old lady."
Mrs. Meng is still sitting on the heated kang at the moment, her ears are not very sharp, and she can hear some movements outside, it seems that her little grandson who has not met has come and brought A granddaughter-in-law.
She has only met that eldest grandson before. Among the several grandsons, she also loves that eldest grandson the most. In the past few years in the north, she has always come to see her, and the others have not seen each other for a long time. .
This unmasked grandson, she didn't know what she looked like, she sighed, before her daughter was the smoothest of several children, and this happened. It seems that God is also very fair.
No one has a smooth and lucky life.
Su Xiaoman and Xie Mingtu entered the room, and immediately saw the little old lady sitting on the kang, the little old lady was very thin, a pair of black satin pointed shoes, a very small pair of shoes, The old lady had her feet bound, it was a three-inch golden lotus.
This is Xie Mingtu's grandmother, here is called grandma, old lady Meng.
Mrs. Meng was also a figure when she was young. After the Xie family fell, she took her children to support the family.
As soon as Mrs. Meng turned her head, a pair of indifferent eyes immediately burst into light, like a black cat with round eyes, and the round eyes seemed to fall out of their sockets Yes, raised his right hand, and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Second child... Second child..."
Xie Zhongqi said, "Mom, this is your little grandson."
Yes, this is her little grandson, her second child is long gone.
"Come here, come to grandma and let grandma take a closer look."
Xie Mingtu walked over and said a few words to the old lady, the old lady Meng cried and laughed at him, and kept holding his hand, seeing Su Xiaoman beside him, even more I was happy, and from time to time I said a few nonsense, "I saw you married a daughter-in-law..."
At this time, the eldest of Xie Zhongqi's family has gone to his uncle's house to call someone. In the subordinate courtyard.
"My little cousin came to the door, and my uncle and aunt came to our house for a meal."
Ge Xiangyu saw Xie Antai, the child of her brother-in-law's family, and immediately felt resentful. The relationship between their family and the third family was not very good. , do filial piety, and don't communicate much at other times.
What's more, when the elders of his family got married, the two families had a big fight.
Her family gave birth to two daughters, Cheng Cheng and Qing Yuan. Later, their health was not very good, and the couple died. They lived with their two daughters. Ge Xiangyu was the most diligent and thrifty housekeeper. It's impressive, and there is still a lot left every month. The husband's third brother's house is different. He always has a lot of money at the beginning of the month, and he swallows vegetables at the end of the month, so he often goes to his house to beg for food.
She went out to exchange some money and introduced the widower to her eldest daughter, saying that the two sons of Antai Changtai were the only two sons of the Xie family. They only had two daughters in their family, and they would marry to a foreign family later, and the money should be paid for later. It belongs to these two Xie family nephews. His Xie family money cannot be cheaply given to outsiders.
After being drunk, his tone was full of resentment, saying how hard and tired he was for Lao Xie's family to raise two sons to support their mother, and their family raised two daughters, don't have to worry about their children marrying a wife, Saying that his family eats delicious and spicy food every day...
Ge Xiangyu didn't make her liver hurt.
In the past, Gao Mengyue scolded two boys in front of her; showed off that the old lady knew a treasure; Blame her family for being delicious and spicy? !
As soon as his family came, Ge Xiangyu knew that there was nothing good, and she couldn't put on a good face.
"Little cousin? What little cousin? Little sister is the eldest of her family?"
"Her family."
"Ginger Banquet Hall?"
"Xie Mingtu."
Ge Xiangyu was stunned, thinking where did the surname Xie come from? Not long after Xie Chengcong came back, he told her what happened at the little sister's house. Their family was going to the third uncle Xie Zhongqi's house.
Two daughters, the eldest Cheng Cheng was away, so he took the twelve-year-old Qing Yuan over to Xie Zhongqi's house and saw the young nephew in front of the old lady, Xie Mingtu, next to his daughter-in-law , Su Xiaoman.
"Little cousin, little cousin." Xie Qingyuan is a cute oval-faced girl with two braids and a big padded jacket.
"Sister-in-law, you look so good-looking!" As soon as Xie Qingyuan entered the house, he was attracted by the new beautiful little cousin. In the past, it was absolutely necessary to go to the palace to be the favored concubine.
If she were an emperor, she would definitely make her an imperial concubine.
Xie Antai and Xie Changtai's eyes couldn't stop falling on Su Xiaoman, and they were a little jealous of this little cousin, who was a good-looking man, married a daughter-in-law and was so beautiful.
Mr. Meng was pulling Xie Mingtu to speak, and she frowned unconsciously when she heard Xie Qingyuan calling her cousin cousin.
"Xiaotu, you might as well follow Antai Changtai, call me grandma, listen to me." Mrs. Meng's voice suddenly became full of anger. Grandson, I just feel the kindness that pokes my heart. Seeing these familiar eyebrows, I vaguely think of my second child.
If the second child gets married and has a child, her grandson should be so old and look like his father.
Gao Mengyue hurriedly said: "Old lady, you are confused, Xiaotu is the child of their old Jiang family, and everyone has grandparents."
Old Mrs. Meng: "What's wrong with calling twice, isn't it just us? Be good, call grandma."
The other Xie family members on the side all looked at Xie Mingtu. Xie Mingtu just smiled, took the old lady's hand, and called "Grandma" softly.
Mrs. Meng was also not angry, she kept saying, "Looking at you is like my grandson."
The faces of Xie Zhongqi's family are not very good-looking. Xie Chengcong and Ge Xiangyu are amused by the melon seeds. They don't care. , set back the prestige of the third brother's family.
The two of his family are the two seedlings of the Xie family? Look, can't this be more than one?
One more!
Ge Xiangyu was watching a joke next to her.
"That's right, Xiaotu is so lovable, he looks like the grandson of our Xie family."
"Mingtu, right? This child's surname is Xie. The family is all our Xie family."
Gao Mengyue immediately said: "He will change his surname to Jiang in the future, Xiaotu, when will you change your name?"
Xie Mingtu shook his head: "I won't change my name."
"Why do the children of your Jiang family follow their mother's surname? Your original surname was Jiang, so why did your mother give you the surname Xie."
"Not her surname, born in Xiejia Town, surname Xie."
Mr. Meng took his hand, "That is, what's wrong with the surname Xie for the children born in our Xiejia Town? They are all descendants of our old Xie family."
"I will often visit my grandma in the future."
Ge Xiangyu took the initiative to invite: "That is, I want to see your grandma more, and rush to bring my daughter-in-law to my uncle's house tomorrow. I think we Qingyuan and Xiaoman are pretty good friends. There is a cousin Cheng Cheng."
"Our house is lively now."
…
After a meal, Xie Mingtu and Su Xiaoman left, and Mrs. Meng wanted to stay with them for a while longer. Seeing that they were in a hurry to leave, she asked to bring 15 catties of frozen mutton. It was the people of Lao Meng's family who honored the old lady. The old lady now felt sorry for her little grandson, so she asked the young couple to take the mutton away.
When Gao Mengyue gave the frozen mutton to Su Xiaoman and his wife, she didn't feel bad. The meat was originally intended to be cut in half to open a small stove, but now the two have taken it away.
When Su Xiaoman and Xie Mingtu went back, they dragged 15 catties of mutton and a lot of mutton bones. This time the temperature is below zero, and the outside is a natural refrigerator when it freezes.
Go back and try the mutton soup.
With such ten catties of mutton, the two of them can eat for a few days and can cook a variety of different dishes.
Eating mutton in the cold weather is the most enjoyable way to go back and study how to eat mutton.
Su Xiaoman held the hand of the man beside her, thinking of the scene she saw before, she found it interesting, she stared at Xie Mingtu's handsome side face and smiled, but Xie Mingtu laughed for unknown reasons.
"Manman, what's wrong?"
Su Xiaoman shook his head, "Nothing, just found something."
Although their brother Gouzi used to take the romance villain script, he also picked up the protagonist script.
In the future, I will let him try the grocery shopping.
Maybe something unexpected happens.
