Qiao Dami was sitting on a small stool, stoking the fire. Seeing Qiao Xiaomai leaning against the courtyard door and taking deep breaths, he asked out of curiosity, “Sister, what are you doing?”
“Nothing.” Qiao Xiaomai rubbed her face with her hand and walked towards him, “Hasn’t father returned yet?”
“No.”
“It smells so good!” Qiao Xiaomai took a deep breath, the aroma of the pig’s trotters was already wafting out.
Although she had just eaten tofu pudding and drank soy milk, she was still hungry.
“We’ll start eating when father returns! I’ll go and light up the tofu.”
“Good, good.” Qiao Dami nodded vigorously. He wasn’t hungry, but the fragrance of the pig’s trotters had enticed all the gluttonous worms in his stomach! contemporary romance
Qiao Xiaomai rubbed his little head and stepped into the kitchen.
Meanwhile, with Tong Sanlang.
He carried the large tofu weighing seven or eight jins back home. Zhu Hongyun had already prepared the previously brought tofu into a cold dish.
Simply sprinkling some scallions, pouring in sesame oil and salt, the taste was already wonderful.
Upon seeing Tong Sanlang carrying back such a large piece of tofu, Zhu Hongyun couldn’t help but be surprised, “Sanlang, could it be that Qiao Xiaomai really has her eyes on you?!”
Tong Sanlang washed his hands and sat down by the dining table in the hall, simply saying, “She is just thanking me for sending her home.”
Zhu Hongyun clicked her tongue a few times, “The timing of her offering tofu is really good. Clearly, she wanted you to escort her home at this hour.” “Sanlang, many girls in the village have given you handkerchiefs, but nobody has ever come over at this time. You be careful, now I see how cunning she is.” “Enough, can’t you shut up even while eating?” Tong Tiehu blackened his face. “What nonsense are you talking about! Your grandfather just said today that we are not allowed to discuss her family’s matters.” Tong Tiehu’s wife, Qian Family, also threw a disapproving glance at Zhu Hongyun.
Zhu Hongyun lowered her head, muttering in a low voice, “I’m also thinking of what’s best for Sanlang, his marriage should not be taken lightly.”
“Enough, eat your food.” Tong Erlang glared at her.
At this, Zhu Hongyun completely stopped talking.
With her silence, the Tong Family started to eat their meal.
The parents of Tong Sanlang went with Tong Dalang to manage the family’s shop in town, so at this time only Tong Tiehu, Qian Family, Zhu Hongyun, Tong Erlang, and Tong Sanlang were present at the Tong family residence.
The Tong Family was the wealthiest family in the village. Every meal included white flour, and every meal also had meat.
Zhu Hongyun, Tong Erlang and Qian Family’s chopsticks all pointed towards the dish of Fried Pork, while Tong Tiehu and Tong Sanlang reached for the dish of scallion tofu.
Tong Sanlang was carefully appreciating the taste of the tofu, a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Presenting two different types of fresh food within a few days was surprising.
Tong Tiehu swallowed the tofu in his mouth, nodded his head, and praised, “Xiaomai’s cooking skills are good.”
“Yes.” Tong Sanlang agreed wholeheartedly.
Seeing this, Zhu Hongyun couldn’t help but say, “Grandpa, being skillful is one thing, but character is another. At such a young age, she’s already so ruthless. Which family would dare to have such a girl?”
At these words, Tong Tiehu glared at her and said, “What does her behavior have to do with you?”
“I’m just reminding Sanlang, this meddler would surely stir up trouble every day if any family married her.” Zhu Hongyun chewed on her pork while belittling Qiao Xiaomai, “Our family’s life is peaceful, we should keep away from such people.”
“Moreover, considering her mother, who knows…”
“Shut up!” Tong Tiehu slammed down his chopsticks with a stern expression, “I said at noon that I didn’t want to hear discussions about her family, did you take my words as wind passing by your ears? If you don’t want to eat, go to your room!”
“Erlang, control your wife, or else she’s no different than those gossipy women in the village!”
