Era: Start as a buyer

Chapter 34 It’s the wrong time

Luo Cheng also gave Lao Zhang's wife some peanuts. Marrying a wife was such a big deal, it was normal for the neighbors to give her some peanut candies and the like. However, Luo Cheng lived in the far west. When he went out to the left, he saw Lao Zhang's house. The right side was empty. The west side was Luo Cheng's right side. If there were neighbors on the right side, there were indeed some. Going to the west side, some of them had gone west.

After delivering the peanuts, Luo Cheng returned to the house and considered what to eat for lunch. The bird I caught yesterday, whose name I don’t know, died yesterday, and was taken care of while roasting the mouse. I'm wondering if I want to roast the bird, and I brought eggs this time, so I can roast two of them.

But what Luo Cheng didn't expect was that before noon arrived, his mother came over with his sister, sister-in-law and children.

What's going on at this point? None of the people who came to help were at this point. Although the relationship is very close, the food output is low these days, and even the brothers and sisters of the separated families rarely visit during meal time. Even working people treat guests to dinner, and the guests are given food stamps.

"Nariko, your brother and your father went hunting in the mountains. I was thinking that your sister and sister-in-law would be fine staying at home anyway. I just came over early to see if you have anything to do. You are getting married tomorrow. Okay, how are you preparing?"

Luo Cheng's mother spoke first after seeing Luo Cheng, but Luo Cheng was a little annoyed and didn't want to pay attention to his mother. This is not the time to help. He sometimes goes to visit his sister or during lunch. At other times, I would occasionally nibble on a radish or sweet potato from my eldest sister's house, but I wouldn't stay to eat.

Come on, Luo Cheng can't afford to treat everyone to a meal now. But now it's all like this. When he first separated, he had to rely on himself for everything. He didn't know how to live a careful life, and he ate a lot when he caught good prey and didn't exchange it for food. When I couldn't catch any prey and had nothing to eat, I would run to my parents' house.

His parents were not so partial that he had nothing to eat, not even a bowl of rice. But there has never been a time when I didn’t get yelled at and scolded. Teach him that if the family is divided, he must understand the rules of family separation.

After the second year of separation, unless Luo Cheng's mother came to call her during the holidays, he never took the initiative to eat there again. Even if it was autumn and Orion organized people to go into the mountains together, Luo Cheng would bring his own food.

They are all women and children, and they are mothers and sisters. If his father or brother came to this point, Luo Cheng would definitely fight back.

"Come inside, you haven't eaten yet. Yanzi, go to the kitchen to make some food. My sister-in-law will come and help prepare the dishes."

Luo Cheng didn't respond to his mother's words, but directly asked them if they had eaten. He knew it by looking at their expressions without waiting for an answer. You might as well just give the order directly. Wang Xiaomo is Luo Cheng's sister-in-law, but even though she is a sister-in-law, she can still give orders casually.

What a eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, bullshit, women just don’t have much status in this era. Wang Xiaomo also pretended to be a sister-in-law, but after being reprimanded by Luo Cheng, Luo Cheng's father also had a patriarchal mentality and said that men should do things and women should talk less. Then Wang Xiao'e no longer dared to act like her sister-in-law. If she wanted to act like a sister-in-law, she would do it to Luo Yan, or even to her married eldest sister Luo Lan.

Here in Luo Cheng, if Wang Xiaomo wants to put on airs, then he will really act like her name, and he will pull your mother's socks off. Just start scolding, say a few more words, don't push, mountain people prefer to take action.

Even Luo Cheng and his brother Luo Qiang have the same attitude in this regard. Women just need to do the housework and take care of the children. In rural areas, if someone goes to someone's house and they have something to talk about, usually the man will not talk to the woman unless he is at home. Moreover, if women always make the decision on some things, men will lose face, and others will say that the women in your family have the final say.

So when Luo Cheng was fighting Wang Xiaomo, no matter whether it was right or wrong, his brother told her to stay out of trouble. If Luo Cheng, the younger brother, really gets into trouble, then he, the elder brother, will naturally teach him how to behave.

Luo Cheng gave the bird to be roasted to his sister-in-law and asked her to chop it and fry it. The seasonings include pepper picked from the mountains, and just add some salt. I have boiled lard at home, and everything will be fragrant when fried.

In fact, Luo Cheng was not stingy. He originally thought that someone would come to help him in the afternoon. I bought a pound of pork belly in the future time and space, intending to get some for the people who came to help to try in the afternoon, but it came at noon.

He also took out the pork belly and asked her to cut some while he went to get a radish from the field. Stir-fried pork slices with radish slices, this is a tough dish to entertain everyone.

As for his mother, Luo Cheng has not yet given orders to her. Maybe when his parents get old, Luo Qiang will be the one to give orders.

"Brother, this table and stools are newly made by you. They are so beautiful."

"What's there to see? Aren't they all the same? I'm going to pick a radish, and you go wash the rice quickly."

"Brother, come here, I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter? Tell me quickly."

"Dad asked us to come here at this time this morning. Daddy said that if you have grown up like you, why should you eat an extra meal? You know, everyone in the family listens to daddy."

"Okay, got it."

"How much rice will be washed later and how thin it will be cooked."

"Just cook about three kilograms of rice and eat it dry. It's a rare time for you to come here, and I ask you to eat watery rice. I think you're thin, so I'll eat more later."

Luo Yan smiled and nodded, she was not polite to Luo Cheng. Luo Cheng didn't waste any more time and went to pick (pull) radishes.

Not long after, there was a house nearby.

"Dad, Mom, I saw Na Luo Ba Dao picking radishes in our vegetable patch."

"It's our family's turn so soon, so don't pick too many."

"Took two and left, the big ones."

"This guy doesn't grow his own vegetables. He treats everyone's vegetable fields as his own."

"Forget it, that kid lives alone, you can still argue with him, a second-rate guy."

It is impossible to grow vegetables. Luo Cheng, who is eating vegetables, will not just pick on one family. If he has any objections, he will be reasonable. You have to prove whether the vegetables he picked are from your family, whether he wrote your name or called him and he will agree. If you want to be aggressive with him, that's fine, everyone should stop eating.

Not long after leaving home, Luo Cheng came home with two large radishes. One was enough for cooking, and he kept the other one to nibble on. On this hot day, it’s great to eat radishes. It's sweet with a hint of spiciness, which is very satisfying.

The moment Luo Cheng went out, his sister and sister-in-law were shocked by the things in his house. There is still more than half of the rice in the rice vat, so the family has a surplus of food. I think the hunters, if they can save a tank of food like this before winter, it will be easier for them to survive the winter. There are also two large turtles in a large wooden basin at home. These things are not rare, but they can also be eaten for one or two meals. Mainly there are eggs and flour.

The two pheasants in the bamboo cage outside the door are nothing to the hunters, but they are happy to catch them.

There's just one thing. Although the turtle is big, it doesn't taste good. It's nothing for my family to eat with the door closed, but Luo Cheng is getting married and hosting a banquet, which is a dish that can't be served at a banquet. But it’s not bad to have two pheasants and so many eggs.

But they didn't look through the things in Luo Cheng's room, such as the snake in the bag in the corner of the kitchen. There is also the braised pig head in the bag at the door. This braised pig head is the hard dish. Add bulk wine and peanuts, it's enough.

How will you face it when I take out the big pig head?
