Chapter 238 She has eyes for him
"I'm not familiar with her, really! Not at all." Hu Wenhua lowered his voice but still had a sense of panic, fearing that she would misunderstand.
Ding Jiajia nodded softly.
She was just surprised that Zhang Chunhua could call him Brother Wenhua, but she had known him for such a long time, and they had only spoken to each other a few times.
When can she call him like this openly?
And he didn't need to explain to him. The little girls in the village also called other men "brother". Although they were not as intimate as Zhang Chunhua, it might be Zhang Chunhua's habit.
Hu Wenhua thought Ding Jiajia didn't believe it, and he was even more anxious. His burly body couldn't keep the etiquette and took another step forward, his figure covering the soft and slender person.
Ding Jiajia looked up and saw that the two were standing very close, closer than ever before, so close that Hu Wenhua could see the soft little hairs on her fair cheeks, and he could see him in her watery eyes.
She had him in her eyes.
Hu Wenhua suddenly forgot what he was going to say, and just felt very hot all over!
"Jia Jia, Jia Jia!" Fan Erzhu and Fan Sanzhu ran over from behind and shouted eagerly.
Hu Wenhua reacted suddenly, took a big step back, and pulled a short distance away, but not too far away. He stared at the two with sharp eyes.
He had never called her like this!
Fan Jiang corrected his two cousins: "Brother Erzhu, Brother Sanzhu, my mother said that Jia Jia is her sister, so she is our aunt. You can't just call her by her name. You have to call her Aunt Jia Jia like us!"
Fan Erzhu and Fan Sanzhu were stunned.
Aunt Jia Jia?
Why!
The key is how to talk about marriage after calling her that?
"No way!"
Being stared at by Hu Wenhua's sharp eyes, Fan Erzhu laughed and explained: "We call her parents Uncle Ding and Aunt Ding, how can we call her Aunt?
Dajiang, let's talk about it separately! After all, there is no blood relationship, it's okay."
Only the second aunt said that she was the eldest sister, and she was not the second aunt's biological brother like Hu Wenhua.
When he gets married to the Ding family, Ding Jiajia will become his wife. Let's see how the second aunt can still call Ding Jiajia sister!
You can't say he is her brother-in-law, right?
The more Fan Erzhu thought about it, the happier he became. He looked at Ding Jiajia as if she was in his pocket.
Ding Jiajia frowned slightly and took a few steps back.
She didn't like the Fan family.
Especially Sun Jinhua, Fan Dazhu, Erzhu and Sanzhu.
The four of them went to her house many times in the past few years to insult her. Fan Dazhu and the other two even threw mud at her. Before she met Hu Wenhua, she didn't even like to leave her house and the land in front of her house.
It was only after she got familiar with Sister Shuiqing that she often came to Sister Shuiqing's house, but she still didn't go to other families in the village as usual.
During the time she was at Sister Shuiqing's house, she thought she had gotten used to being around a lot of people. Today, when she met Fan Erzhu and the others, she realized that she was not used to being around a lot of people, but was used to getting along well with people. She still didn't like people like Fan Erzhu!
Just being together makes people feel uncomfortable.
"Ms. Ding, come and drink the mung bean soup." Li Erni shouted loudly over there.
"Okay." Ding Jiajia responded, turned around and trotted over without hesitation.
Hu Wenhua's body, which was originally retreating, stepped forward to block the two people who were about to catch up again.
Fan Erzhu and Fan Sanzhu dared to challenge others, and did not care about Ding Jiajia's alienation and dislike, but when they saw Hu Wenhua, they couldn't help but shrink, paused, and dared not move forward.
Zhang Chunhua was very happy to see that Hu Wenhua stopped Erzhu and Sanzhu but not herself.
She walked briskly to the place where the mung bean soup was placed.
Zhou Yu and Zheng Yan took out a bowl and a spoon from the bamboo basket, and the other was responsible for scooping the mung bean soup.
Li Dani and Wang Qiuyue first brought a bowl to Ding Jiajia, then to Fan Jiang and Fan He, and then to Hu Wenhua, and the rest was for themselves.
Looking at Zhang Chunhua swallowing her saliva, the five people just pretended not to see it - there were only nine sets of bowls and spoons, and the lady didn't prepare others at all.
Ding Jiajia held the big bowl and drank it slowly, one spoonful at a time. This mung bean soup was cooked by Shuiqing sister, and only Jianghe and Jianghe were qualified to share it. She was also the one who ate it for free, and each person only had one portion. She was not good enough to give her portion to Zhang Chunhua.
She secretly glanced at Hu Wenhua, who didn't need a spoon, and drank it in big gulps, without any sign of giving it to others.
For some reason, Ding Jiajia felt a little relieved.
According to her understanding, Hu Wenhua was a very generous person. If he really liked Zhang Chunhua, he would not be reluctant to give a bowl of mung bean soup. He didn't give it to Zhang Chunhua, did it mean that he didn't have that intention towards Zhang Chunhua.....
Hu Wenhua was also very satisfied. Erzhu and Sanzhu didn't come forward, and Jiajia didn't even look at them, proving that he was right!
Jiajia didn't like those two people at all.
This cognition made him inexplicably happy.
Zhang Chunhua looked at Ding Jiajia and then at Hu Wenhua, and saw that neither of them spoke, stamped her feet and turned around and ran away.
Fan Jiang and Fan He didn't know what they were thinking. They just thought that the mung bean soup cooked by A Niang was really delicious!
Accompanying Aunt Jia Jia to deliver mung bean soup was really worth it!
Li Dani also thought: "Madam's mung bean soup is really delicious!"
The others nodded vigorously.
"It's sweet. I've seen Madam cook mung bean soup. She put a lot of sugar, or white sugar. Madam said that white sugar tastes better than brown sugar." Wang Qiuyue said in amazement.
White sugar is more expensive than brown sugar. She knew that.
She felt very distressed about the sugar, and Madam actually gave them the mung bean soup with so much sugar. She was so generous.
Ding Jiajia took another sip. She had made mung bean soup before and put a lot of sugar, and it was white sugar, but it was not as delicious as Sister Shuiqing's.
There was always a bitter taste of mung beans.
"Madam also soaked mung beans, poured out the soaking water, saying that it was to remove the bitter taste, and then added spring water to boil again. It was not only a waste of money, but also a waste of energy." Li Dani added.
The delicious soup was not only because Madam was willing to put sugar, but also spent time!
Ding Jiajia hurriedly remembered.
"No wonder!" Zhou Yu understood.
They used to dislike eating beans on the farm. They didn't like to eat soybeans, mung beans, and red beans. The main reason was that beans were not delicious no matter how they were cooked. They had a bitter taste and needed a lot of sugar to match them.
But sugar is a precious thing. Who would be willing to match it? Besides, even if they were willing, they didn't have it.
Only after coming here did I know that mung beans and soybeans can be grown into bean sprouts, which are fresh and delicious;
Soybeans are ground into pulp, and tofu, tofu pudding, dried tofu, and bean skin are made, and soy milk is delicious;
Red beans are made into red bean paste buns and red bean rolls made of honey beans. The lady also said that drinking red bean soup in winter warms the stomach, and drinking mung bean soup in summer relieves heat. Different seasons have different food. They just learned that there are so many ways to eat and cook beans!
"In the past, the old people in the village often said that those who survived a great disaster must have good fortune in the future. Is this our "good fortune in the future"? "
"It must be!"
