523 Reaction 2
Before he could take the bamboo basket that was floating with the tempting fragrance of vegetables, he was about to find an opportunity to sneak back to his room to cover up the lotus that he had run out and put it into practice, but his own mother blocked the path not far from home.
"Why did you come back so late? Tell me, what happened to the Li family? Why did that Constable Lin suddenly come to the door?" Looking at his daughter who was walking slowly and slowly across a bamboo basket, the lotus girl glared at her eyes and asked one after another.
"Ah?" He didn't know that his sneaking was caused by his own mother or even his mother's mother's mom. Faced with such a problem, He Hua could not react for a moment, and he was stunned.
"Why did I give birth to such a silly girl?" The lotus girl, who was completely defeated by her daughter's cute appearance, suddenly moved her nose and landed her eyes on the bamboo basket covered with cloth, and asked, "What's the smell, it smells so good."
"Oh, mom, this is the dish that Grandma Li asked me to bring back. She said she would replenish your body and also make you feel more enjoyable." At this moment, the lotus that finally reacted quickly opened the cover of the bamboo basket in her hand, revealing three small black clay pots.
Considering that drunk shrimp is a special food that is not acceptable to everyone, and it is not good for pregnant women, Li Anran naturally cannot send it out to harm people. The three bowls are braised eel, old sauerkraut fish and fish head mushroom soup.
In other words, except for the fish head and mushroom soup in these three dishes, the other two are heavy-tasting. The two different flavors of strong aroma and sourness are combined together, which invisibly breaks through the limit of one plus one equals two.
However, for the lotus girl, it is not the time to pay attention to what these three dishes are and why they are so fragrant. She stopped her daughter's actions and said, "Don't worry about this for now, tell me what you heard."
"Mom, it's nothing." He Hua, who came to her senses, was not stupid enough to the end. At this moment, she realized that she had never escaped her mother's eyes. After muttering, she began to explain honestly.
Actually, He Hua's mutter was not wrong. What happened in the Li family just now was really nothing. And the most important thing was that He Hua forgot to ask Constable Lin what he was here to do. If Li Anran hadn't known that this girl would have to explain it to him when she came back. So, while the two of them were cooking, they would have taken the initiative to mention it, and it would be hard to explain it now.
"So, Constable Lin will give gifts to his door because Hu Zi saved his two brothers. He didn't expect that he had worked in the county town for a while and he really had a good ability." After finally asking what he wanted to know, Lotus Lady sighed.
Fortunately, no matter how emotional it is, I was also the lotus mother who ran out because I was worried that my daughter would not have anything to do. I didn’t want to look back and face the questioning of the mean mother-in-law. I waved my hand and took my daughter back home.
Originally, the mother of the lotus mother wanted to ask about the Li family as soon as possible. However, she didn't expect that after the lotus flower put the three dishes she brought back on the table, the whole family couldn't help but enter a state of "no food" when they lived.
If you say that Li Anran is not stingy, although these three dishes are just divided, the portion is quite large. Anyway, whether it is eel or green fish, they are all large, and the dishes they make are naturally full of portions. In addition, I feel that the leftovers are not good to eat, so I will naturally be generous when I give them.
But even so, the three dishes that are comparable to even more than the normal portion of a dish in an ordinary family were still cleaned and sweet potatoes by the Lotus family in a very short time. In fact, the grandmother who belongs to Lotus eats the most.
Although this person is not young, he has a good appetite. Especially the sour, tender and tender old-sized pickled fish, which has made the lotus grandma have a great appetite. In the end, even the soup and water are soaked in the rice for savory food.
In addition to this person, He Hua's father and the only boy in the He Hua family ate a lot. The four "money-losing goods" including He Hua basically just "simply tasted" and disappeared. At most, they just made some vegetables and soup to make rice.
The only lucky one is lotus mother. She relied on her baby just now, so she ate some. Especially the small jar of fish head and mushroom soup, except for the small half of which was divided by her mean and partial mother-in-law, the rest were eaten.
As the saying goes, people's hands are short and people's mouths are soft. But the grandmother of Lotus is so good that after drinking the last bit of soup in the bowl, she put the bowl heavily on the table, and then said with a very bad expression: "I think it's better not to delay the marriage of Lotus."
"Since Lord Lu is willing to marry Hehua as his concubine, Hehua is now old, I think this matter should be done early so as to avoid any trouble. I will ask someone to invite the matchmaker Jia tomorrow, and it is best to get things done this month."
Faced with this sudden decision, the honest, honest and filial father of He Hua didn't respond much. In his opinion, his four daughters were going to marry, and it was not a bad thing to marry a rich man like Master Lu.
Although he just married him as a concubine, he could not resist the bride price given by others was more heavy than that of ordinary people marrying a wife. What's more, matchmaker Jia also said that although he was just a concubine, he would not treat his daughter badly. Why not kill two birds with one stone?
After hearing this, the lotus girl was very angry at her mother-in-law's arbitrary behavior and felt a little guilty about her second daughter, but she had to admit that the bride gift given by the owner of the Lu family was indeed very tempting to her family.
Even if the Li family really has a relationship with Constable Lin, what can it do? Although the constable is an official, he is an official who is too small to be even smaller. As long as he lives his life honestly, it is basically impossible for him to have any intersection with the other party.
Moreover, a small constable is indeed very afraid of ordinary people, but in terms of financial resources, he is obviously inferior to the Lu Da Manor who has fertile land Qianqing. Not to mention, the one who is going to marry is not Constable Lin but the boy from the Li family.
After hearing his grandmother suddenly say this, the lotus flowers, who just felt that they were getting closer and closer to happiness in the Li family, suddenly felt that the sky and the earth were broken, and their thoughts were gone, and their originally rosy face turned pale in an instant.
Although Orchid, who was ready to get married, did not dare to say anything at this time under the power of his grandmother, he did not forget to secretly hold his sister's cold little hand on the table and pat it a few times to show comfort.
The chrysanthemum and plum blossom sitting next to them were looking at their second sister with unbearable expressions. However, the two little girls were younger and even though they felt that their future was very dark, they didn't dare to say anything at this time.
"I'll get it!!"
Although I knew from Li Lingxiao's memory how mean and weird the grandmother of the Hehua family was, after witnessing the other party's behavior with her "eye", Li Anran, who had been paying attention to the Hehua family's reaction with invisible spiritual thoughts, was still quite speechless.
Originally, Li Anran thought that the evil mother-in-law that often appears in a certain female farming article was just a person who was deliberately created for the sake of plot needs, but now he found that this vicious "creature" does exist.
Fortunately, he was speechless and as the situation began to develop in a direction that was not conducive to his own. Even the incident where Constable Lin came to the door did not change the old woman's idea, but instead promoted the other party to make a quick decision. Li Anran did not watch anymore, but instead took action.
Of course, although the lotus' grandmother was very hateful, Li Anran did not use the "sudden death" method to completely shut up. After all, although killing can indeed solve the problem, it is often not the best solution.
