In the Broken Gold Beach, it is still as peaceful and beautiful as before.

Because the weather was so fine, the old lady picked a dustpan from the small eggplants in the back yard and planned to pickle the garlic eggplants.

This is a pickle that the people in the Northland like to eat.

Choose small eggplants that are four or five inches long, wash them, steam them in a pan until soft, cut them open in the middle, and let them dry for a little while.

Then crush a lot of garlic, add coriander powder, fine salt, and mix well.

Then spread such mashed garlic evenly and stuff it with eggplant.

Finally, find a small clay pot, wash and dry it in the sun to ensure that there is no raw water and oil, and then put the eggplant in it.

A layer of eggplant and a layer of fine salt, sealed and placed in a cool place, can be eaten after half a month.

After marinating, whether it is served with porridge or noodles, it is a good partner for dinner.

People here in Xindu have a bland taste, and they definitely don't want to eat such small pickles, but here in Suijintan, every family comes from the North, and the taste can't be changed.

At the end of autumn, rush to pickle some. When Maodong has a poor appetite in winter, it all depends on these small pickles.

Jiayin followed in front of and behind grandma, helping to pass some things, and it was very useful to make a start.

The old lady smiled and praised, "My Fu girl has become sensible just after her birthday, she really looks like a big child! She used to make trouble, but now she is a good helper for grandma."

Jiayin was praised, she grinned her teeth, her eyes narrowed, she just wanted to show off, but when she opened her mouth, her saliva almost dripped out uncontrollably, which made the old lady laugh out loud. I can hardly stand up straight!

At this time, Hui Niang came over with a basket of eggplants, "Auntie, I'm here!"

Mrs. Li was most nervous about Huiniang's big belly, she ran forward to pick up the basket in two or three steps, and said angrily, "Why don't you just rest at home, why are you running around?"

Hui Niang smiled and said, "In the past few days, you don't let Fu Niu go and read and write with me. I'm too bored to be idle. I heard that you steamed garlic and eggplant, so I wanted to join in the fun, and I also pickled a jar for preparation. He is used to serving food to your husband, he is used to it in the army, and now he has a strong taste in food."

"You shout outside the courtyard wall at the back, and I'll just bring you a jar." The old lady helped her sit on a chair under the eaves.

Jiayin hurried to the house and took a cotton pad and stuffed it behind the master's waist, trying to make her more comfortable.

Huiniang rubbed Jiayin's little head, saw that there were only the grandparents and grandchildren in the yard, and asked, "Madam Cui, Sister-in-law Qiong, and Dongmei, why aren't they here?"

The old lady replied: "Jinrou went back early in the morning, and there are many things going on in her village, because Fu Niu celebrates her birthday, so it would be nice to come here for a few days to have fun. Master Hou found a nanny for Fu Niu, Ye Shan went to help pick up people, and Dongmei took advantage of this time to dry the bedding and wash the clothes."

"We, Fu Niu, are blessed. Our family dotes on her, and Master Hou also hurts like an eyeball." Niang Hui was envious, and couldn't help touching her belly, hoping that her child would be so attractive in the future.

The old lady was peeling the eggplant in her hand, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, just look at the way Dayong loves you now, if you hold it in your mouth for fear of melting, if you hold it in your hand for fear of falling, he will definitely hurt you twice in the future." of a child."

Niang Hui lowered her head and smiled shyly. Just as she was about to speak, there was a commotion outside the courtyard.

Jiayin was very curious, and was about to go out to watch the fun with her short legs, but the old lady didn't stop her, so she could only follow.

Hui Niang's heartbeat accelerated for no reason, and before she could stand up while supporting her waist, she was so startled by a group of people rushing in from the door that her face turned pale!

The old lady was in her fifties, she was well maintained, her skin was fair, but there were wrinkles between her brows, and her eyes were cold, no matter how severe she looked, she couldn't be compared with kindness.

Behind her were two middle-aged women, beautiful and dignified, with gorgeous clothes.

A plump figure with a gentle expression, but the slightly thin one had the same meanness as the old woman in front.

Behind the three of them, there were more than a dozen thick women and maidservants, all holding sticks with thick arms, and they were menacing.

The old lady was also stunned, and didn't understand what happened for a while, but she still remembered that her little granddaughter was by her side, and she subconsciously stuffed the child behind her back, and asked sharply, "Who are you, why did you break into my house?"

At this moment, Hui Niang who was standing on the steps suppressed her fear and shouted, "Auntie, they are from the Yan family!"

The Yan family?

The old lady stared and understood that things were not simple.

Back when Hui Niang and his wife hid, they almost lost their lives, but now the Yan family came to the door again, so aggressive, there is absolutely no peace of mind!

Fortunately, at this moment, Uncle Zhao and the others had squeezed in, keeping the old lady and Fu Niu'er behind.

"You guys are trespassing on a private house. There is no national law? Who gave you the courage!" Uncle Zhao was furious and shouted loudly.

When these people got off the carriage at the entrance of the village just now, they thought they were visitors, but as soon as they pointed to Li's house, they took out their sticks and rushed over.

This is not a visitor, it is clearly a robber!

The thinner middle-aged woman raised her hand and pointed at Hui Niang on the steps, and said in a cold voice, "National law? What kind of national law do you untouchables know? Isn't it a violation of national law to harbor our Yan family's fugitive slave?"

Fugitive slave?

Mrs. Li, Uncle Zhao and the others all had bad faces. Fu Niu'er rolled her eyes, and ran out of the courtyard quickly while everyone was not paying attention, and happened to meet Jia An Jiaxi in front of the door.

It turned out that the two boys ate too much porridge in the morning, ran out of class to drain water, saw many people entering their yard, and came back to take a look out of curiosity.

Jiayin pulled the brothers one by one, and said anxiously: "Brother, the big thing is not good. The Yan family has come to snatch my master, and it will kill me! One of you will go to the valley to find people, the more the better, and the other will call the second uncle. Tell Erbo to send someone to the pier to find Uncle Yong, hurry up!"

Jiahuan Jiaxi didn't hesitate at all, turned around and ran away.

At this moment, there was already a commotion in the yard, and the mean woman called out to the thick women to come forward and drag Hui Niang down.

Of course, Mrs. Li, Uncle Zhao and the others could not let go, and stopped those women desperately.

But there were too many women, they stopped most of them, but two of them went up the steps.

Madam Hui protected her stomach with one hand, picked up the herbal teapot on the small tea table with the other and threw it at it.

The two women were also annoyed by the face of the tea, and they were about to tear each other up.

Jiayin was in a panic, but she was too young to help.

Fortunately, Dongmei turned over and jumped over the wall.

Seeing this situation, she rushed forward in a few steps and kicked it hard.

The two women touched Hui Niang's sleeves but were suddenly kicked away, dragging Hui Niang staggered and fell to the ground!

The old lady hurried to help Madam Hui, and asked repeatedly, "Mother Hui, how are you? Are you hurt?"

Hui Niang's face was so pale that there was no blood at all. She gasped for breath and comforted Mrs. Li, "Auntie, I'm fine, let someone come back to find my husband! Husband, find my husband..."

"Okay, okay, don't worry! There are so many people in the family, they will protect you, you just take care of yourself and your children, don't worry, definitely don't worry!"

The old lady went crazy with fright, Mother Hui was pregnant with two, if something happened, it would be a dead body and three lives!
