80s: After Marrying a Disabled Man, I Am Really Fragrant

Chapter 17 When sleepiness comes, someone gives you a pillow

"Every time your eldest sister comes here to pick out clothes, her eyes are glued to them. She also likes this one and wants that one too. She has to pick seven or eight sets every time she comes here. There was something different when she came here to pick out clothes in the first half of this year. Okay, look at this one, look at that one, if you don’t like it here, you have to say she doesn’t like it! In the end, she will choose seven or eight sets.”

Chen Jing placed a piece of clothing on Ning Xia and continued to look for it. "I don't have any money, so I rely on Xiao Nan to support me. I think my clothes are not good in style and quality, and I don't know her." That’s where the face comes from.”

After a while, Chen Jing patted the pile of clothes he picked out and said, "How about these? I think they all suit you."

There are at least a dozen pieces of clothing in that pile.

Ning Xi quickly shook her head, "It's too much, sister-in-law. I just have one or two pieces to change."

Chen Jing didn't listen to Ning Xi and folded the clothes one by one. "You don't mind if you only wear one or two pieces of clothes every day. It's annoying to Xiaonan. Let me tell you, men like their wives to dress beautifully." She is beautiful, and her beautiful appearance not only makes her look happy, but also makes her face shine.”

Seeing that the matter of choosing clothes was a foregone conclusion, Ning Xi had no choice but to help fold the clothes, "Sister-in-law, I will do it."

“Fold them together.” Chen Jing glanced at Ning Xi with a smile, and had another good impression of the girl in front of her.

In the past, after Ning Hong picked out clothes, she would stand next to her. She looked as if you were a clothes seller and folding clothes was what you were supposed to do.

 What to do? Doesn't she, Ning Hong, know that the clothes she gets here are all at cost, she doesn't make a penny, and she still has to look down upon her.

Ah! If it weren't for Xiao Nan, she would have stopped serving him long ago.

After choosing clothes, Chen Jing took her to choose a few sets of underwear. Chen Jing said that these were all requested by Lu Nan and asked her to change the clothes inside and outside.

After choosing clothes, Lu Xu drove them back to the village. The road in the village was relatively narrow and the car couldn't get in. The car could only park at the entrance of the village.

Lu Xu helped Lu Nan sit down in the wheelchair, "Ning Xi, Xiaonan said you dug up more than a dozen orchid grasses and wanted to sell them. Give me the orchid grasses, and I will take them with you when we go to the city another day to think of ways to sell them."

“Thank you, brother.” Ning Xi mentioned casually before that she wanted to sell the orchid grass she dug, but to her surprise, Lu Nan took it to heart and asked Lu Xu for help.

 “It’s just a matter of courtesy for the whole family.”

“Brother.” Lu He came over from a distance with Zhang Ying.

Lu Xu glanced at the things in Lu He and Zhang Ying's hands, "The big and small bags are also going to the market? Why didn't you come home for dinner?"

Lu He smiled and said, "I went to pick up Yingzi from my father-in-law's house. I brought these back from Yingzi's natal family. I also caught two fish. It happened that my eldest brother also stayed at home to eat before leaving."

“Sure, I haven’t been back for a long time.” Lu Xu smiled and nodded.

The five of them walked towards the village together. Zhang Ying slowed down and walked with Ning Xi, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Xi, are you okay?"

"Yeah! Very good." Ning Xi pursed her lips and smiled at Zhang Ying. Zhang Ying was 3 years older than her, because they were of similar age and had a good relationship. In the six months since she got married, Zhang Ying had taken great care of her.

"It's okay, everyone in the Lu family is your relative." Zhang Ying held Ning Xi's hand with a smile. She had been taking care of her sick mother at her parents' home these days. In the morning, Lu He came over to talk to her about what happened at home. , she was so shocked that she couldn't say a word. After all, Ning Xi was also a child of the Ning family, how could they do those things.

"Yeah!" After experiencing what happened in her previous life, Ning Xi no longer regarded the Ning family as relatives and severed ties with them, so she didn't feel uncomfortable.

Ning Xi first took back the things she bought today and walked into Secretary Lu's house carrying the hen. "We bought a chicken at the market today, so we just brought it over and stewed it together."

“Take the chicken back and raise it to make soup for Xiaonan another day.” Wang Xiuqin caught the chicken and sent it back to Ning Xi.

Finally, with Ning Xi’s insistence, Wang Xiuqin finally accepted the piece of pork that Ning Xi brought over.

 Lu He caught two grass carps weighing about two pounds, while Wang Xiuqin and Zhang Ying caught one fish each. There was a basin of small fish next to it. Wang Xiuqin pointed to the basin of small fish, "Xiao Xi, wash out this basin of small fish and use it to make soup later."

Ning Xi walked over and squatted beside the porcelain basin, looking at the little fish that was jumping lively and blowing bubbles with bright eyes.

It’s true that when you feel sleepy, someone will give you a pillow!

 She was thinking about some kind of business, and the business came to her door.

In her previous life, in order to coax her daughter, she learned cooking skills and made replicas of various snacks for her daughter to eat. Among them, spicy dried fish was her daughter’s favorite.

“Second Aunt, these fish are too wasteful to make soup. Can I make them into small dried fish?”

 Zhang Ying looked at Ning Xi with a smile, "Would it be delicious to make dried fish?"

Ning Xi vowed, "It's absolutely delicious."

“Then give it a try, it’ll just give us a taste of Xiao Xi’s craftsmanship.”

Wang Xiuqin made the final decision, and Ning Xi made spicy dried fish out of a pot of small fish. Before the dried fish was out of the pot, several juniors from the Lu family had already walked into the kitchen.

“What mom made, it smells so good.” Lu Lin took Lu Xiaoxue into the kitchen. As soon as he entered the kitchen, he took a strong breath. It was numb and fragrant. The smell was simply amazing.

 Wang Xiuqin responded loudly, "Your third sister-in-law made spicy dried fish."

　A few people immediately walked to the stove and stared at the dried fish in the pot.

“It will be ready soon.” Ning Xi stir-fried a few times, picked up the plate, shoveled some and handed it to Lu Lin next to him, “Let it cool before eating.”

"I know." Lu Lin agreed, reaching into the bowl to grab a small dried fish and stuffing it into his mouth. "Wow! It's delicious, sister, try it quickly."

Lu Xiaoyu ate a piece of dried fish, her dark eyes narrowed into a thin line, "The dried fish made by Sister-in-law is delicious."

"Let me try it." Zhang Ying came over and picked up a small dried fish and put it in his mouth, crunching and chewing it, nodding fiercely, and picked up one and brought it to Wang Xiuqin's mouth, "Yeah! Mom, try it."

Wang Xiuqin nodded while eating, "It's really delicious. You girl, you still have this ability. Why didn't you tell me before? If I had known you were so capable, I would have left the spooning job to you."

 Zhang Ying said hurriedly, "Yes, yes, yes, don't wait for another day, you are responsible for holding the spoon today!"

"It's so hot, isn't it hot when Xiao Xi stays on the stove? Okay, I'll fry the other dishes, and Xiao Xi, you'll be responsible for cooking the fish later."

Ning Xi did not refuse. She scooped up the dried fish and washed the pot together. Wang Xiuqin was responsible for cooking. She would not cook the fish until the vegetables were ready. Ning Xi originally wanted to help light the fire for a while.

Over there, Zhang Ying also took out the leftover rice from the pot and planned to cook the rice again.

Looking at the big bowl of rice, Ning Xi had another idea in her mind: "Second aunt, can I use the remaining rice to make something new?"

 “You can figure it out.”

With Wang Xiuqin’s consent, Ning Xi asked Zhang Ying to put some flour in the rice and make spicy strips.
