Chapter 291 Stir-Fried Pine Nuts
Yang looked at her mother-in-law's posture and curled her lips, and her mother-in-law could only keep her mouth strong. Sure enough, the person who best understood my mother-in-law's temperament was my cousin, otherwise she wouldn't have said harsh words.
At the same time, there was a commotion in the room next door. Baiyuntang coaxed her for a while, and finally calmed Chen Jiao down.
"Jiaojiao, mother is like that. Don't be like him. From now on, when I'm not at home, just stay in the house and don't go out. If you have something to handle when I come back, they are used to being overbearing. With your character, "It's just a loss."
Chen Jiao leaned against the bed and reached out to hold his hand. Her eyes were red and swollen.
"I don't want to quarrel with my mother, let alone antagonize my siblings. I just want to live an ordinary life with you.
"I know, that's why I feel sorry for you."
Chen Jiao pressed the handkerchief to the corners of her eyes.
"I don't know what happened today. I met my mother and my second younger sister as soon as I went out. They scolded me without saying a word, even Xing'er didn't let them go."
"If what they said wasn't really unpleasant, I wouldn't have been able to hold back and just contradicted them. The result was like poking a hornet's nest, and there was no end."
Speaking of this, Chen Jiao's face turned red and she gave him an angry look.
"It's all because of you that I got scolded today. Please stay away from me in the future, so that you don't have to listen to me again and say that I am inappropriate... You are relieved. You have given me a bad name for nothing. How will you let me go out in the future? "
Bai Yuntang listened to Chen Jiao's complaints with a sly look on his face. He finally got his wife into the house and held her soft body in his arms. If he didn't have any ideas, would he still be a man?
Thinking of those leprechauns squatting in the corner shamelessly, scolding and rushing away, as soon as he returned, those people came over again, which was really irritating.
"Did you hear me? Don't make it difficult for me anymore."
Chen Jiao said, reaching out and pinching his arm, her eyes swaying, and Bai Yuntang looked distracted.
"Okay, okay, I'll be patient in the future." Baiyuntang looked at her, hehehe.
Baiyunxi didn't know what happened to her second uncle's family, so she poured out all the pine nuts she had collected and spread them on a bamboo mat to dry.
Waiting until dinner was over and the lights were turned off to go to bed, no one from the second uncle's natal family showed up.
Bai Yunxi smiled. A group of bully masters didn't dare to bring bad luck to her.
Therefore, for some people, you can only suppress them by being tougher than them. The more you talk to them, the more they will slap you in the face.
In the next few days, their family continued to go into the mountains to collect pine nuts, and they did not stop until the pine forest was almost completely harvested.
Looking at three sacks of pine nuts, the family was so happy that they could not see anything.
Baiyunxi looked at the pine nuts drying in the backyard and estimated that they weighed more than 200 kilograms after drying.
Pine nuts are a precious commodity, and some of them will be roasted for the Chinese New Year and kept for home consumption. Send the rest to the dried fruit shop and sell it, and you will definitely get a good price.
When it was almost drying, Baiyunxi noticed Li's eager eyes, "Want to eat?"
"Hehe... I really want to." Mrs. Li turned over the pine nuts, "Mom, do we want to try them?"
“It’s not easy to eat our own food, so we’re going to fry it now.”
Bai Yunxi smiled, shoveled three to five kilograms with a dustpan, and carried it to the kitchen.
If you want to make the pine nuts open, you need to soak them in water first, wait until the skin of the pine nuts is soft, then put them in a pot to steam, then take them out and let them cool, then add salt and stir-fry over low heat until the pine nuts open, then you can eat them. .
