I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

 Chapter 690 A small barbecue

 Furthermore, as owners, if they mess up to the point of embarrassing the tenants, it’s because they are incompetent.

"You did a good job. As the old saying goes, poor people must be hateful. Some people really can't get used to it, and it's easy to get into trouble. As long as we are reasonable, we don't have to worry about anything else. It is said that unruly people come from poor places. Although our place is not too poor, it is not surprising that there are a few bad apples."

"Having said that, most people are still good, and some people are poor but have backbone. But for those who are poor, no matter how you make concessions, there is no cure."

As he spoke, Bai Yunxi looked up at his son and curled his lips.

“So, now you have to learn to be tough, especially not to be soft-hearted. Being hard-hearted can save you a lot of trouble.”

Listening to the second brother's self-reflection, Baiyunxi took a sip of tea and then stood up to light the charcoal fire with his daughter. Since we were going to have a barbecue, it was fun for everyone to do it together.

Baiyunxi took it and took a bite. The fish meat mixed with spices stimulated his taste buds, and he felt a sense of satisfaction from the bottom of his heart.

Grilled fish alone is boring. There are many people with mixed tastes. Food diversity is what makes people like it. The combination of meat and vegetables also relieves boredom.

“I made a stew for the two fish that Mrs. Du sent me. It’s very fragrant. My father-in-law always praises you as a talent.” Mrs. Song Wang chuckled lightly and took a bite of the fish.

“You are the only ones who can figure out novel ways to eat it, unlike us, even if we want to eat it, we can’t figure it out.”

"By the way, did you know? Chen Jiao asked the matchmaker to marry Xing'er, and today the matchmakers are here." Song Wang came close to Baiyun River and spoke in a low voice.

It is right to ask him if you have anything to do. Wang Liang also mentioned this to him accidentally, telling him not to be too talkative sometimes, as it would be easy for someone to take advantage of him.

Bai Yunxi chuckled. During this period, it was very common for girls in the countryside to get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

Today, Sister Wen has taught him a lesson. When the tenant knew that he needed to change the tenancy document, the looks in the eyes of the Wang Huzi brothers made him extremely uncomfortable.

 At dusk, the whole yard is filled with the rich smell of meat.

 The oil dropped into the charcoal fire and made a sizzling sound, which looked like a waste.

“When the girl got older, she was so ashamed that she stayed at home doing embroidery work and couldn’t even get out of the house.”

 In the past, he felt that he had also come from poverty and could best understand their suffering. So, every time someone asked, he would agree, again and again. The tenants in Xiaofangzhuang privately said that he was a weakling with no independent opinions.

 “Grandma eats grilled fish.” Yaya held up a fish and brought it over. It was charred and brown, and she was appetizing just by looking at it.

Hearing his mother's instructions, Bai Anyan nodded, "Don't worry, mother, I will study hard and be a qualified boss."

 Finally gave up, it’s best this way, everyone can live their own lives and live in peace from now on.

Maihua is as big as Xiaosi. Not long ago, the Song Wang family decided to marry their daughter.

 What some people are accustomed to doing is to use pity to gain sympathy.

Song Wang came in with a basket of tribute vegetables, looked at the scene in the yard, and looked at Baiyun River dumbfounded.

“Everyone who gets some delicious food at other people’s houses doesn’t hide it, but at your house, you’ve heard it from afar.”

After eating a fish, Mrs. Song Wang took out her handkerchief and wiped her hands, poured out the tribute dishes, and left with the basket, Baiyunxi brought her another grilled fish.

"Take it home and give it to Maihua. After the girl gets engaged, she won't go out any more."

 The man lives in Shangwan Village, and is also Maihua’s grandmother’s family. When you marry in front of your grandma's house, you will have someone to protect you and you will not be bullied.

 “So good, so fragrant.”

The little girl ran over with a smile, picked up a bunch of grilled mushrooms covered in sauce, and ate them with gusto.

“Come and eat when you smell it, am I still afraid of you?”

 Except for their family, including two long-term workers and Shuren Chunhua, they are all hardworking people with big appetites.

In the eyes of some people, they always feel that the poor are hardworking and pitiful, and they easily feel pity for them.

 Two hundred five. Two hundred and thirty-four. One hundred and forty-six. Seventy-five

In the past, I would run to Yunxi at all times, but now I can’t even move despite urging.

Baiyunxi put down the wooden stick and wiped his hands with a handkerchief, "Girl Jing, I'll bring you a fish for Mrs. Song."

He had seen this a few times when he was managing Xiaofangzhuang, and every time he couldn't help but compromise, and in the end his mother had to step in and get rid of the person.

They picked these in the mountains and forests. They have a very strong aroma and are also the main ingredients for braised chicken.

 “I like to eat grilled mushrooms.”

 Other families are even more reluctant.

　　"Okay, then I'm welcome." Mrs. Song Wang took the grilled fish on a skewer, squinted her eyes, smelled it, took a bite, and couldn't help but admire,

 Eating the fish sent by Yunxi at every turn is shameless.

He had the feeling of a dog looking at bones and a wolf looking at flesh, which made him feel uncomfortable in his heart.

Bai Yunxi looked at the long tribute vegetables in the basket and nodded, "Okay, I'll ask Du to pick them up later and pickle them."

 During the holidays, it would be nice to buy some meat at home and cut a few slices for stew. No one dares to be as wasteful as they are, putting it on the fire and roasting it.

 Song Wang only mentioned it once, then changed the subject and talked about something else.

"You're right, Xing'er is a pretty girl. As long as she lives a peaceful life, she will be fine." I hope she won't act like a monster, get married and have children, and her life will be fine.

However, mother is right, sooner or later he has to adapt and make himself stronger, especially not to be too soft-hearted.

No wonder you can smell the fragrance from a long distance. It turns out to be the reason why the oil fell into the charcoal fire.

Hearing Song Wang's thoughts, Baiyunxi looked at her with a smile, "I haven't gone fishing at the river for a while. There are a lot of fish today and the weather is hot, so I can't let it sit for a long time, so I just roasted it."

“Oh my god, I can smell it from afar, so I know you are making delicious food again.”

Bai Yunxi was stunned and nodded, "This is a good thing. Myolie is not young anymore. It would be bad for her to delay for too long."

She has eaten pickled tribute vegetables before. They are crispy and are good as a side dish for porridge in the morning.

“She must be in a hurry to embroider her dowry.”

In addition to grilled fish, grilled ribs, and beggar's chicken wrapped in mud, paired with some vegetables and mushrooms, it's a delicious meal.

 Unfortunately, the price of being soft-hearted and compromising is not only loss of profits but also no one who really appreciates you.

Bai Anjing has been squatting by the charcoal fire, flipping the sweet potato slices on the grill. She also likes those meats, but she will get tired of them if she eats too much, but she likes these salt and pepper sweet potato slices very much. "Mrs. Song, try it. It's just baked."

 “Hey~, come on.”

 “Yaya, go eat it too, be careful of the fish bones.”

"By the way, I brought this tribute vegetable from my mother's family. If you can't finish it, you can peel it, dry it, and pickle it. It can be used as a side dish or as a dry vegetable in winter."

"I want to keep her for one more year. I originally thought of setting the date in the autumn of next year, but the pressure there is tight. We have discussed setting the date in the spring of next year, in March, which is not too cold or too hot. It is also feasible."

“Spring is a good time.” Bai Yunxi nodded and sent the Song Wang family off.
