Jiang Yang rode his bicycle back home at lightning speed. Before the bicycle stopped and his feet even touched the ground, he heard his mother asking him to help Wang, the educated youth in the village, to report to the police.
After briefly understanding the situation, he turned the car around without saying a word and set off for the town again.
"Go early and come back early!"
My mother's advice rang out behind me.
"I know, Mom!"
Jiang Yang responded and said that it would take less than an hour to go to town and come back, and it was getting dark late, so there was no rush.
Looking at Jiang Yang's receding back, Song Yue nodded with satisfaction.
These three sons are really well-behaved, sensible and obedient on weekdays!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile with relief.
At this time, Lin Fangfang brought out plates of steaming and fragrant snacks from the kitchen and placed them on the table.
She asked softly, "Mom, do you want to eat something first? It might take a while for my third brother to come back."
Song Yue smiled and shook her head, saying, "No need, Fangfang. It's better for our family to eat together as a whole.
When the third brother comes back, we will start eating together."
Lin Fangfang understood her mother-in-law's thoughts and stopped trying to persuade her.
She turned around and asked her second brother, second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law if they wanted to eat first. The three of them said they were willing to wait for the third brother to come back before enjoying the meal together.
Today, this family's living conditions are much better than before. In the past, other families could only eat two meals a day and often went hungry.
But now their family can guarantee three meals a day, not only with fragrant white rice, but also with soft and delicious white flour buns. Occasionally they will change the taste and try multi-grain cakes.
Such regular and hearty meals make it less likely for people to feel hungry, so it’s okay to wait a little longer.
In addition, I don’t know when it started, but there are always snacks in the house.
Lin Fangfang learned how to make some delicious snacks and desserts, such as the sweet and soft pumpkin cakes, the sweet red date syrup, the crispy and delicious rice crusts, etc.
Most of these snacks are kept in Song Yue's house. Whenever Song Yue feels tasteless in her mouth, she will take some to satisfy her craving and fill her stomach.
In short, life is becoming more and more enjoyable.
"Okay, then you take a good rest, I'll go wash my husband's coat.
He's been working all day these past few days, sweating profusely, and his clothes are almost rotten!"
When Lin Fangfang heard her mother-in-law say this, she felt that what her mother-in-law said made sense. After all, as a family, they should live in harmony and order.
At this time, Qian Duoduo was not idle either. She was cleaning the chicken coop and pigpen carefully.
You know, it's still very hot today. If you don't clean it regularly, the whole yard will be filled with an unbearable stench.
Only by cleaning diligently can you reduce the number of annoying mosquitoes and make the smell a little fresher.
At this moment, there was a sudden "dangdangdang" sound.
"Wife, look, what delicious food I brought you!"
Jiang Lai was smiling, holding up two strings of black stuff in his hands, like a child who had got a treasure and was eager to show it to others.
"Oh my god, you scared me to death! Don't ever pat me from behind like that again. It's really scary!"
Qian Duoduo was so frightened that she quickly patted her chest with her right hand and muttered softly.
When she calmed down and saw the black thing in Jiang Lai's hand, she immediately showed a look of disgust on her face, and waved her hands repeatedly and said:
"I don't want to eat this, keep it for yourself!"
Jiang Lai was immediately confused, his eyes widened, and he asked in confusion:
"Oh, why? When I handed you this delicious roasted grasshopper, you ate it with such a smile on your face, enjoying it so much!"
"Well, that was in the past. My taste has changed now. I prefer the pumpkin pie and rice crust made by my sister-in-law.
Those are really delicious. Anyway, I will never touch this kind of roasted grasshopper again."
As Qian Duoduo spoke, she took a step back, as if the roasted grasshopper in front of her was something scary.
She thought to herself that the past was the past, there was no choice, and in order to fill her stomach, she had to bite the bullet and eat.
But now our family conditions are not bad, we have enough to eat and we eat well.
She has sweet pumpkin pie, rice crust to eat, and sweet soup to drink, so why would she eat roasted grasshoppers?
"Okay, since you don't like it, I'll enjoy it alone."
Jiang Lai shook his head helplessly and licked his lips. In fact, he knew that what his wife said made sense.
The pumpkin pancakes made by my sister-in-law are really tempting. Not only do they contain the right amount of sugar, but after being fried, they become crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and are sweet and delicious.
He himself also likes to eat it, but he only tastes a little bit each time.
After all, such delicious food should be left for the women in the family to taste.
"Hey, Brother Lai, you were also at the scene today. Did you see clearly whether it was Wang Zhiqing who pushed Liu Zhiqing down?
Or is it that Liu Zhiqing is deliberately making up lies to frame someone? Tell me quickly!
Seeing her husband eating the roasted grasshoppers with such relish, Qian Duoduo thought of something and instantly turned into a curious baby. She blinked her big eyes and looked at Jiang Lai expectantly, eager to know the truth.
"My elder brother and I were working hard in the fields, and it was such tiring work.
We were both so tired that we were panting and sweating profusely. We couldn't stand it anymore, so we ran to the shade of a tree at the edge of the field to rest for a while and drink some water to quench our thirst.
I was sitting there when I suddenly heard a scream."
Jiang Lai swallowed the chewed grasshopper in his mouth and then said to his wife, he couldn't help thinking in his heart that the pumpkin cake made by his sister-in-law was indeed the most delicious.
"So, no one saw what happened with their own eyes, and all we have is Liu Zhiqing's own one-sided account.
"When Qian Duoduo heard this, an indignant expression immediately appeared on her face. She had already preconceived the idea that Liu Zhiqing was not a good person.
The mother-in-law had previously warned her three sisters-in-law that Liu Zhiqing was very cunning and asked them to be careful and not be deceived or used by her.
In the past, Qian Duoduo just thought that her mother-in-law had a good eye for people, but after this incident, she found that her mother-in-law had a keen eye!
My mother-in-law’s judgment is so accurate, she is truly foresighted!
"Brother Lai, I've made up my mind. From now on, I'll listen to whatever Mom says!"
Qian Duoduo said with a firm look on her face.
"Hmm? Isn't that how it's supposed to be?"
Jiang Lai was completely confused. He had no idea why his wife suddenly became so serious. There was a circle of black stuff around the corners of his mouth.
"yes!"
Qian Duoduo nodded vigorously, then looked at her husband's bear-like appearance, as if he had been digging coal, and couldn't help but burst into laughter...
