Chapter 4 Cooking

The eldest brother came to ask for money, but Jiang Cheng didn't think much about it. He took out the piggy bank he had saved for her and posted another twenty taels himself.

The worried elder brother told me: Brother, you should take care of the money yourself first. When you get married with your elder sister-in-law, she will live her life before giving it to her.

Jiang Yan took it over and poured it out and counted it. The silver ingots, broken silver, and some copper plates were about eighty taels.

You can buy up to ten taels of things, and you can live a harmonious life with two people.

If she spends more money, then he will hunt more. Anyway, the flesh and skin of the prey are valuable, so she will definitely be able to raise her well.

Brother, are you going to buy something tomorrow?

Jiang Yan hummed: We don’t have anything for women in our family, and it’s not suitable for mothers, so it won’t cost much anyway.

Why don't I go with you!Women's things are the best to make money, Jiang Cheng wants to follow them to help bargain.

Jiang Yan knew that his stingy and conservative spirit was coming, but he didn't know how to choose things. The third brother was very smart, so it would be better to take him to help with the choice.

At night, Bai Xiu slept in Jiang Yan's room, and Jiang Yan went to his third brother's room to sleep.

Three years ago, the four brothers built a new house, preparing to get married in the future, and share the joys and sorrows together and are unwilling to separate the family. The house was built and the yard was large.

It's a bit like a house in the city, with houses on three sides, one with a wall, and a fence on the outside, and two yards inside and outside.

We grow vegetables and raise chickens outside, and you can dry things inside for future children to play.

There are half of the houses opposite the front door of Jiang Yan and the third brother Jiang Cheng, and a kitchen is built between them. The second brother Jiang Min and the fourth brother Jiang You live in the east and west rooms respectively.

Bai Xiu has experienced a lot in the past two days and is very tired. After wiping her body, Jiang Shui fell asleep, and inserted it into the door.

At night, the two brothers lay on the same bed, and they hadn't slept together three years ago.

Jiang Cheng couldn't sleep a little. Thinking of his beautiful sister-in-law in his eldest brother's room, he whispered to Jiang Yan who was sleeping outside: Brother, where did you buy it?

She is so beautiful. Generally, she is either a concubine for rich people or a girl from a flower building.

In the darkness, Jiang Yan opened his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice: She didn’t buy it, I picked it up on the mountain.

Picked up?不会……不会是妖精变的吧！

Listening to the sound of breathing beside me, I knew that my third brother was thinking about it and explained: I only picked it up when she fell from the cliff and fell into the Moon Lake.

Jiang Cheng said oh and thought to himself: That's really a good life. If there is a deviation, your life will be gone.

Unexpectedly, my elder brother could get a beautiful and cheap wife even when hunting. Thinking that since my father died, I have been delayed for so many years in order to pay back the money to take care of them, I couldn't help but be happy for my elder brother.

Perhaps God thinks it’s not easy for a eldest brother, so he sent such a beautiful sister-in-law to come.

When the eldest brother gets married, the second brother still has a junior sister who loves to pester him, so he can get married.

He used to think that he would raise a woman more and more to open his mouth, but now he is twenty years old, so it is time to marry a wife.

Men all love beauty. He doesn't like the ones in the flower building who can spread their legs with money. Many girls in the village are not as good-looking as themselves, let alone compare with their sister-in-law.

If you buy it, the more beautiful it is, the more expensive it is. He can't bear to pay for money.

It would be great if there was a girl who fell into his pond. He would carry her home and take good care of her like a eldest brother, as long as she didn't spend money indiscriminately.Jiang Cheng thought, and fell asleep happily.

……

The next morning, Bai Xiu got up. She slept well last night and didn’t have to worry about being arrested to be a concubine. She felt very peaceful.

She doesn't pursue much, she just wants to marry an ordinary person and live a good life and have a few children.

Now that I meet Jiang Yan, everything is better than she imagined.

I was afraid that they thought they were lazy and so I dug the well water to wash it, so I went to the kitchen to make a fire to make breakfast.

There are vegetables in the basket, rice jar and rice noodles, and even badger pork is marinated and waiting to be dried.

It was easy to eat in the morning, and Bai Xiu planned to make noodles and make some rice soup.

Jiang Cheng got up to cook and saw smoke from cooking. The eldest brother was still sleeping. Could it be his sister-in-law?

As soon as she came to the house, she asked her to cook. Would she think they were mean? She hurried into the kitchen and smelled the tempting fragrance as soon as she arrived at the door.

Bai Xiu had already cooked the noodle soup and was waiting for the noodles below, but he didn't notice that anyone was coming.

Cut some badger pork into the noodle soup, divide it into three bowls, two large and one small.

I was about to add firewood and cook noodles, but when I saw Jiang Yan standing at the door, he stared at him in a daze, and quickly looked away: Third... Third brother, are you in trouble?

Hearing the soft voice, Jiang Cheng barely came back to his senses. He just watched her standing in front of the stove, wearing her mother's somewhat old-fashioned clothes, but it did not detract from her beauty at all. His figure was graceful. Seeing that she was so white and tender, I think she should be good at home!

But why did he fall off the cliff? After being rescued, he promised to be with his elder brother instead of going home.

Although she looks as beautiful as a lady in the high school, she can cook and go with the flow. She must be a village girl.

As for falling off the cliff, it is very likely that he was forced to jump off, or maybe his cruel parents wanted to ask money to buy her for someone to be a concubine.

I have to say that Jiang Cheng is really smart and can get a rough idea through a few details.

No matter what happened before, she became her eldest sister-in-law, and the eldest sister-in-law was like a mother, and their brothers would respect her.

So, he stepped forward and said to her: Sister-in-law, take a rest, I'll cook!

Bai Xiu smiled and shook her head: No, it’s almost done.

Her smile was as bright as a flower, as if it had lit up the dim kitchen in an instant.Jiang Cheng's breathing stopped, he lowered his eyes and coughed, covering up his mouth: Then I'll help you burn the fire.

Seeing that he wanted to help, it was not a big deal for the two of them to hold on, Bai Xiu agreed.

Jiang Yan woke up and washed up, so he went to his room. He was about to knock on the door but saw that the door was not closed.I opened the door and cleaned up the bed, but I didn't see the man.

Her heart sank. Did she regret that she didn't want to be with her and ran away secretly at night?

It is becoming more and more likely that I quickly walked out the door and wanted to catch the person back, but I saw the man in the yard washing his hands by the well.

When I walked up to her, I saw her rubbing her hands with soap kettles. I washed them carefully before pouring the water.

Bai Xiu stood up with the basin, turned around and saw him standing in front of him. He was so scared that he took a step back.He calmed down a little and said: Let's go for breakfast!

She didn't leave and asked herself to have a meal. Jiang Yan was very happy, and his hard face became much softer. He reached out to take the wooden basin in her hand and walked towards the kitchen with her.

When they came, Jiang Cheng picked up the chopsticks and prepared to eat it. It smelled so good just now, and it should taste good.

There must be a woman at home. In the past, the eldest brother made other things that were not delicious except barbecue, and the second brother and the fourth brother didn't know anything. He could only make it. It was not delicious but it would not be difficult to swallow.

Now that they have sisters-in-law, they can cook good things even if they have good things.

Jiang Yan put the wooden basin and sat down at the table. Looking at the thick rice soup and noodles, it looked quite simple, but smelled very fragrant.

Jiang Cheng ate the noodles and the taste was really good. The heat was just right and the noodles were so chewy. He smiled and said: Sister-in-law, the noodles you made were so delicious.

Bai Xiu heard him praise him and his face turned a little red: Then you eat more.After saying that, he lowered his head and ate his own.

Jiang Yan was snatched by his younger brother and lowered his head to eat noodles.Although he didn't say anything, he was very proud of his face. He ate a big bowl of noodles and drank a lot of rice soup.

Bai Xiu had a small appetite, so she was very full after eating a small bowl of noodles and drinking half a bowl of rice soup.
