Chapter 26 Brother, Please Be Patient
She had been sitting in the yard, waiting for her little daughter to come back, but she didn't expect the damn girl to sneak back with food. She must have come in through the back door.
Just as she was thinking this, Zhang came back from behind.
"What are you doing blocking the door? I brought this chicken back. Mianmian said she wanted to give it to us old folks. Do you want to eat it?"
The corner of Zhao Hui's mouth twitched, and she snorted in dissatisfaction, "It's a gift to you, just eat it. Humph, it's like everyone has eaten chicken before."
Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and went into the house and took the bowl from the old man's hand.
The little granddaughter found her and just as she entered the yard, she heard Zhao Hui's voice.
She quickly asked her granddaughter to go out again and pretend to come back from outside, otherwise she would be scolded by the woman again.
After a while, Feng Xiaojing came back.
Zhao Hui asked her what she wanted to know.
Feng Xiaojing just said honestly: "My brother-in-law brought two friends to help with the house repairs, nothing else."
"How much benefit did he give? I think the young man is pretty good, why would he be willing to marry into the family?"
Originally she thought it was her stepmother who forced her to do it, but since she brought her friends to help with the house repairs, it was not forced, it was voluntary.
Then she couldn't figure it out.
Feng Xiaojing said: "She has a house, three thatched houses and a plot of land. If I meet someone who has no parents but has land and a house, I would also be willing to marry her."
"Hey, you shameless girl, how can you say such a thing? How can a girl marrying off be compared to a boy marrying into the family."
Feng Xiaojing stopped talking.
Zhao Hui asked again: "She stewed the chicken, why didn't you bring some back?"
"She filled a bowl for grandma, and half of the chicken was in the bowl. There wasn't much left."
Zhao Hui was angry: "Aren't you on good terms with her?"
"Yeah, so she gave me a chicken wing to eat, and she made me finish it before letting me go." She didn't even dare to say that she was eating a chicken leg, and changed her words to say that she was eating a chicken wing.
Zhao Hui scolded her for her cowardice just now and told her to go back to her room and work.
…
I packed half a chicken for Feng Xiaojing to take away as there was not enough food at home.
She secretly ordered a pre-made dish, chicken with pork belly.
Feng Rongrong picked some peppers and came back to make a tiger-skin pepper.
In their opinion, chicken stewed with black fungus and chicken with pork tripe are just one chicken cooked in two different ways.
No, there are three.
She made the chicken offal into pickled pepper chicken offal, which was sour, spicy and satisfying.
The steamed buns from last time were all eaten up, so she steamed two more baskets and another basket of braised pork with salted vegetables.
There are also cured pork ribs, pickled fish...
Today's work is gone, so this meal is particularly sumptuous.
Several of them burped after eating so much.
Leng Chuan rubbed his belly and said, "I've been living like a god these past few days. Now that I have lost my job, I don't know if I will ever be able to eat such delicious food again in my life."
Feng Mian smiled and said, "Of course I can eat it. Good days are yet to come."
This is the truth. In the future, there will be all kinds of restaurants on the streets. They will rack their brains and use all their tricks to study food and drink in order to retain customers.
Compared with those private dishes and meals cooked in real big restaurants, Fengmian's cooking skills are nothing to the imagination.
"Sister-in-law, if you have work to do in your family in the future, remember to come to me. I won't charge you any money, as long as you provide food, and I will take time off to come and work for you."
Feng Mian said some polite words and agreed with a smile.
"Wait a moment, I'll prepare some braised pork for you."
She steamed a basket of braised pork with garlic, thinking that it would be the last day, and packed a bowl for each of them.
