Chapter 58: invite to a meal

As soon as Ma Cuiyun entered the door, she saw the shoe cabinet at the door. She couldn't help but touched it, and said enviously, "My sister, this shoe cabinet is really good. It doesn't take up any space at the door, and it’s convenient to put shoes. It."
Su Yue said: "Sister Ma, if you like, you can also hit one according to this. As long as you can get some wood, you can ask the old carpenter to come and hit one at no cost."
Ma Cuiyun was moved by Su Yue's words, and wanted to get a shoe cabinet like this at home, so she said, "Then I will go back to discuss with my man and see if I can get one."
Ma Cuiyun saw Su Yue’s sofa in the living room again, and immediately brightened his eyes,
Sister, you’re a sofa here. It’s so beautiful. It feels so expensive. The whole house looks different. ."
Su Yue also felt that with this set of sofas, the level of the family instantly improved, at least from the small peasant class to the landlord class. She is also quite satisfied.
After pouring a glass of water for Ma Cuiyun and letting her sit on the sofa, Su Yue asked, "Sister Ma, did you have a conflict with the sister-in-law just now?"
When Ma Cuiyun mentioned Wang Lianying's face, she said angrily: "No, the one I don't understand most in this compound is Wang Lianying. Sister, let me tell you, you don't deal with her in the future. She is a person all day long. People who like to stare at other people’s private affairs and inquire about it, and then add more vinegar to promote it are everywhere."
She said: "When I first moved here, I didn’t know everyone’s personality. Watching Wang Lianying come up and screaming for warmth, thinking she was enthusiastic, I didn’t guard against her. Who knows that she will add fuel to what she hears when she turns around. I told others the same story as the story of the land, which made people read my jokes. For example, I have two daughters in my family, and my mother-in-law wants grandchildren. After she knows, she tells people that I can’t give birth to a son and that my mother-in-law is right. I was dissatisfied and said that my mother-in-law wanted my man to divorce me! Are you angry?"
There is such a wonderful person? No wonder Sister Ma was so upset with Wang Lianying just now, if she was also angry.
"Sister Ma, listening to you say this, I really need to pay attention to it in the future."
"You must pay attention to her in the future. Just leave her alone." Ma Cuiyun said, suddenly patted her forehead, "Oh look at me, look at me, I have forgotten to tell you about my family's situation, my man is called Sun Changfu, who belongs to the same company as your family Han Aiguo, my family lives upstairs from your house."
"It turned out to be Chief Sun, I heard my patriots say that they have a good relationship." Last night I heard Han Aiguo said that one of the people who called for dinner tonight was named Sun Changfu, who was in their building. Come on, it turned out to be Sister Ma's husband, what a coincidence.
Ma Cuiyun patted Su Yue's hand and said, "This is our fate. If you have something to do, come directly to me. I am at home. If you are bored at home, you can come and chat with me. I am usually bored at home. ."
Su Yue promised with a smile, "Okay, I stay at home and have nothing to do. I will go upstairs to play with you when I am bored. You can come down and chat with me when you have time."
Ma Cuiyun happily patted his thigh, "That's good, I will have someone chatting in the future. You don't know, I usually don't like sitting downstairs and chatting with those croaking women. Xijia is short, I don’t like to talk about these people. When I see you, my sister, you’re not a person who likes to make irresponsible remarks, we must be able to talk."
Su Yue thought this was just right, she didn't like talking about the short stories of the east and the west.
At this time, when Su Yue looked at her watch, it was almost five o’clock. She was taken aback and quickly said,
Ma’s sister, please have dinner at my house tonight. I have to get ready quickly. Captain Sun will also be here in the evening. Come together too, bring all the little nieces, don’t open fire by yourself."
Ma Cuiyun waved his hand quickly, "That won't work. How can a family come with a few people, so how much food we have to eat, we won't come."
Su Yue: "Sister Ma, please don't be polite. Come to my house. This is a lively thing. If you don't care about the food, please don't refuse."
Seeing that Su Yue was really a sincere invitation, Ma Cuiyun didn't shirk any more, "Well, sister, Ma will have a cheeky meal today. I'll help you. Don't be polite with what you want me to do. "
Su Yue was not polite, "Sister Ma, please give me a shot."
"Good~" Ma Cuiyun immediately rolled up his sleeves neatly to help Su Yue.
The two were chatting while dealing with the dishes. Through the chat, Ma Cuiyun really liked Su Yue more and more. This girl was right-minded, and she was also simple and neat. This is the way to make friends.
Because she likes Su Yue, she didn't want to say something, but for the sake of Su Yue, she just said, "Sister, have you seen the one next to your house?"
Su Yue knew there was a story as soon as she heard it, so she nodded, "I have seen it, the sister-in-law Fang Xiaoli next door doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic to me."
"I knew it." Ma Cuiyun curled his lips. "It's not that she is not too enthusiastic about you. She is not too enthusiastic about most of the people in our family home. She doesn't want to talk to us people at all."
"How to say?"
"She, she is from the city, and her family has something to do with her. Her dad is also in the army, and she herself works in a supply and marketing agency, so she has always looked down upon us army sisters from the countryside, and when we see it, we love to answer. Yes, plus her man is a company commander, one level higher than our male officials, so I look down on us even more."
"But if she meets a sister-in-law in the city, she will be extremely enthusiastic about others, like the sister-in-law of the regiment leader's family, the sister-in-law of the political commissar, and other sister-in-laws of the company commander's family, as long as they are from the city or the family is powerful and powerful. Yes, she's enthusiastic, and it's a different world from seeing our attitude."
Su Yue suddenly realized, no wonder she felt that Fang Xiaoli was not indifferent to her and Han's patriotic attitude. It turned out that she didn't look down on them from the countryside.
Ma Cuiyun continued: "But don't look down on her and look down on us. In our family building, most of the women are still trying to cheat her. The one who loves to cheat her the most is just Wang Lianying. Don't think Wang Lianying likes to arrange people, but she never I dare not arrange Fang Xiaoli."
"Why?" Su Yue was curious.
Ma Cuiyun saw that Su Yue hadn't reacted yet, and couldn't help but feel amused. This girl really didn't have the intention of flattering others.
"Because she works in a supply and marketing cooperative, the good things in the supply and marketing cooperative are first obtained by the insiders. The flat-headed people want to buy something, and they may not be able to buy something when they queue up. Sometimes they finally get rich. , But I didn’t have a ticket. It’s hard to buy something. But Fang Xiaoli is very easy to buy things, sometimes I can buy it without a ticket, so the sister-in-laws in the building want to bring some good things through her, or buy something that doesn’t require a ticket. ."
Su Yue just understood. The staff of the supply and marketing cooperatives are indeed very popular these days, and there are people who flatter themselves wherever they go. But she didn't have this plan. She would get along wherever it came, and if it didn't, she wouldn't.
Ma Cuiyun and Su Yue thought, "I have never asked her to help bring things. I always go to the supply and marketing agency to buy things. If I can’t buy them, I will try again. I don’t want to look at her face. She treats us. People from the countryside tend to ignore them. Ten people ask her for help, and nine people don’t respond."
Su Yue: "Then let's buy it ourselves. When there is no ticket, whoever is in a hurry will get together, and there is no need to ask others."
Ma Cuiyun smiled, "Sister, you are right."
The two people chatted, and time flies very fast. It was 6:30 in the blink of an eye. At this time, there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, and then the door was opened, and a group of men in green military uniforms walked in.
Su Yue hurriedly went out to say hello. When they saw Su Yue, they all shouted loudly: "Hello sister-in-law!"
Only a few older people, such as Ma Cuiyun's husband, called Su Yue "younger sister."
Ma Cuiyun's husband, Sun Changfu, is a very simple-looking man. He knew it was an honest man at first glance. Seeing Ma Cuiyun was here, he scratched his head questioningly and asked, "Why are you there?"
Ma Cuiyun gave him a roll of eyes, "Sister Su Yue invited me, what's the matter, you are allowed to eat, but I am not allowed?"
Sun Changfu smiled honestly, "Xu, Xu, don't I just ask, there is no other meaning."
Everyone was amused by his fear of his wife.
Su Yue asked Han Aiguo to lift the dining table to the middle of the living room and place chairs. Because there were not enough chairs at home, he moved seven or eight down to Ma Cuiyun's house upstairs. This was enough.
Some of the little soldiers also brought several bottles of wine, and I don't know where they got it.
Because the people weren’t there yet, Su Yue asked them to sit down and chat first. They went to the house and took out the melon seeds, candies and small twists they had made in the past few days, and put them on the table.
You’ll eat something to cushion your stomach, and eat. It's ready soon."
A group of people were shocked by the food, even the seeds, but candies and twists are expensive things, why are they willing to offer so many to entertain guests?
Everyone can't believe it.
Han Aiguo smiled and greeted: "Eat it all, you are welcome. Your sister-in-law made it at home. She has a good craftsmanship. You can try it."
The eyes of Han Aiguo who said this were full of pride and pride, full of dazzling wife.
Hearing what he said, everyone reached out and took the food on the table and stuffed them into their mouths. After eating, they finally knew that the leader of Han Ying was not bragging, and they should be really proud.
This craftsmanship is truly superb. It is more delicious than the most expensive candy seeds sold by the supply and marketing agency, and this little twist is crispy and fragrant, crunchy with one bite.
A group of men immediately immersed themselves in eating and couldn't stop eating, and the reservedness just disappeared.
When Feng Junwei came in with Fang Xiaoli, he saw a group of men immersed in hard work, and couldn't help but laugh and curse: "You are so embarrassed, every big man eats snacks so happily!"
Zhu Zi first said, "Company commander, this is made by the sister-in-law of Chief Han Ying's family. It's really delicious. Try it soon."
Feng Junwei knows that Su Yue is good at craftsmanship. The pastry that Su Yue sent two days ago is really delicious. Even a big man who eats one piece and wants to eat another one, and his wife, usually Very picky, but eating the pastries one after another.
He immediately stepped forward and took a small twist and put it in his mouth. He was instantly overwhelmed by the crispness and couldn't help taking another one to eat.
Fang Xiaoli poked his waist secretly behind.
Feng Junwei looked back at her and immediately understood what she meant, and quickly took a piece of twist and handed it to her.
Fang Xiaoli took the twist and stuffed it into her mouth with restraint, but the speed of swallowing it was not so restrained. After eating one piece, I couldn't help but reached out and took a piece of twist and two pieces of candy, and then I was ready to find a place to sit down and eat slowly.
As a result, with this wrong eye, she saw the sun lounger and sofa placed in the living room, her eyes lit up, and then she frowned.
This kind of sofa is only available to wealthy people. Her parents have it, but she does not have it in her current home, because the carpenters here have never used a sofa, and can't buy it.
Why does Han Aiguo have a small battalion leader's house? Isn't he from the countryside? How can he get so much money to play such a sofa?
Fang Xiaoli walked over and sat on the sofa while looking at her. She touched her hand on the armrest. The more she touched it, the more she liked it. It felt good to lean on. It would be too comfortable to lean on like this after get off work.
Thinking of this, she immediately wanted to have one in her own home.
At this time, Su Yuezheng and Ma Cuiyun hurry up and cook in the kitchen. Chef Su Yue, Ma Cuiyun lay hands. Su Yue knew that these soldiers had a lot of appetite, so the dishes they prepared were very generous, and the meat and vegetables were matched with many styles. She cooks several dishes with meat alone: ​​braised pork with braised pork, steamed pork with rice flour, meatballs, and shredded pork rolls.
In addition to pork, she bought spare ribs and water in the morning, and made a sweet and sour pork ribs and a rib corn soup with the ribs. Use the water to make a small stir-fry of pork offal and a flavored shredded pork heart.
After the meat dishes are finished, there are vegetarian dishes. Su Yue made a slice of glutinous rice and lotus root, a slice of ground three fresh, a thousand-page tofu, a sliced ​​fish-flavored pork, and a cabbage stewed vermicelli, plus a vegetable ball.
She literally used all the ingredients that she could buy, and a table of dishes was brought to the fullest.
Ma Cuiyun was stunned when she saw Su Yue stir fry, stir the pot, and add seasoning. The speed almost made her eyes unable to keep up. For a while, the pot on the left and the pot on the right. She hadn't seen her clearly. The last action, the next action was completed. She hasn't thought about it yet, a dish is already on the plate.
Originally cooking for so many people, it took more than two hours to do anything, but this big girl did a few dishes in the blink of an eye, and the taste of the dishes is not sloppy, just smell it. She couldn't move about the fragrance, and she couldn't wait to grab a bite.
Ma Cuiyun knew for the first time that it turned out that there were people who were capable of superb cooking skills. Compared with the older sister, she simply couldn't watch cooking.
Ma Cuiyun couldn't help swallowing, and then said something silly: "Big girl, I think your cooking is so good to watch. I want to applaud you just like watching a show."
Su Yue was amused by her, and the movements in her hand kept moving, and she smiled: "Sister Ma, then you will watch my performance later. Now I bother you to serve me food, they should wait for it."
After being reminded by her, Ma Cuiyun remembered what was going on, and hurriedly went out with the food, shouting: "Hurry up, it's served, you have a good blessing today. Your sister-in-law of Han Ying's family is very good at cooking! "
Hearing what she said, a group of soldiers swallowed immediately, cleaned the table quickly, and went to the kitchen to help with the dishes. When the dishes were finished, they moved their chopsticks on the table.
A group of people envy Han Aiguo very much for this meal. Why are they so lucky? Not to mention that the daughter-in-law I found is so beautiful and generous, and the cooking is so good. It's so happy to eat such dishes every day.
Everyone expressed their admiration for Han Aiguo, and smiles on Han Aiguo's unsmiling face. No one can ignore the happiness in his eyes.
Even Feng Junwei couldn’t help but envy Han Aiguo. This kid had been unlucky before, but how lucky he was in marrying a daughter-in-law? His wife’s craftsmanship really didn’t say that such a daughter-in-law really beats him. It's hard to find with a lantern. He would be thankful if his wife could have this skill.
Feng Junwei glanced at the daughter-in-law who sat next to him and only knew how to eat, and sighed in his heart.
There are a total of 14 dishes for this meal, and each dish is full of weight, one dish tops the usual three dishes. It is reasonable to say that there is a lot of left, but in the end, it was eaten cleanly. Even the soup on the plate was eaten cleanly by these people with the steamed buns.
Looking at those plates that could only serve as a reference, Su Yue couldn't laugh or cry.
How can there be a feeling that the wind passes through the grass without leaving... But this also shows that they like their own cooking, which is the best compliment for a cook.
As soon as she finished eating, Fang Xiaoli made an excuse to go home and went away neatly, Feng Junwei's face was a little embarrassed.
Others didn’t say a word when they saw it, they took the initiative to help Su Yue withdraw the dishes and clean up the table, and by the way, they cleaned up the ground. There were also a few little soldiers who wanted to help Su Yue clean the bowls. Su Yue was so embarrassed, she was persuaded by other words. After going out, she and Ma Cuiyun finally washed the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen together.
Because of this meal, the little soldiers have better senses of Su Yue.
Look at how many other people, Chief Han Ying, would find a daughter-in-law, if only he would find such a good one in the future.
The two little girls from Ma Cuiyun's family also had a round belly after eating tonight. The younger one is only three years old this year, and she is called Xiao Taozi. She is at a lovely age. When she returned home, she raised her head and asked Su Yue: "Auntie , Can I come to your house for dinner next time? Your cooking is much better than my mother."
Ma Cuiyun was so angry that he wanted to beat her up, but was really afraid that the child would always run to Su Yue after he was ignorant, so he said, "You eat so much, where can I get the extra food for your aunt? It’s not enough for my aunt’s house."
The little girl thought for a while, and suddenly thought of a good idea, "Then I can bring food to my aunt to make it. That's enough."
Seeing that she had learned to prepare her own rations, Ma Cuiyun and Sun Changfu were dumbfounded.
Su Yue was also amused by her. She squeezed her little flesh face and said, "Yes, if Xiao Taozi wants to come to eat, she can come directly to her aunt's house."
Little Taozi was happy immediately, and jumped up when she walked.
