Chapter 91: Fragrant Fish Dumplings



"Mom, that's not true. Our second son is not bad. What's wrong with him being unwilling to marry Qiuye?" Xu's mother was unhappy and raised her voice.

Grandma Xu rolled her eyes at her and said, "Keep your voice down. It's like you're quarreling."

Mother Xu stood there without any temper. She could not learn from her mother-in-law who was as delicate and gentle as a lady from a wealthy family and spoke in a soft voice.

Talking slowly can make her anxious.

After putting down the money, Xu's mother didn't want to stay any longer and turned around and went back.

In the evening, Xu's mother actually made dumplings stuffed with fish meat, still using white flour. The skin was thin and the filling was rich. Each one looked crystal clear when it came out of the pot.

"Mom, what a good day it is today? Why are you still making white flour dumplings?" Boss Xu's face was full of smiles, and he felt like he had endless strength in his hands holding the hoe.

Ever since his wife's relationship with the family became better and better, Boss Xu's weathered face finally showed the vigor and vitality that a young man should have, and his eyes became brighter.

"What a good day, a good day to eat dumplings." Xu's mother said unhappily, and suddenly slapped her thigh: "Oh, how could I forget the important matter, I went to the county town to withdraw money today.

Your third brother sent money home but I forgot to pick it up."

She said she felt like she had forgotten something, how could she forget about money?

Xu's mother looked regretful.

Brother Xu smiled innocently: "It's the same if we go again tomorrow. We can't run away anyway."

Xu's mother rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's okay to pick it up tomorrow, but wouldn't it be more joyful to get it earlier?"

You little brat, you know nothing.

"Hurry up and wash your hands and eat. Today we're having dumplings stuffed with fish. I learned cooking from your younger sister." Xu's mother cooked another pot of dumplings.

There are many people in my family, and if I don’t cook more, there won’t be enough food.

"Shi Tou, send some to your great-grandfather." Mother Xu filled a large basin with food, fearing that there wouldn't be enough at the old house.

Shitou picked up the basket and ran away.

"Mom, I'm going to deliver some to Grandma Huo's house and Sister Daya's house." Xu Ying filled two bowls of dumplings and put them in the basket.

Xu's mother nodded. Huo Chen and Lu Daya saved her daughter, so they should give her some gifts: "Then go quickly and come back for dinner."

"I know, mom."

Mother Xu watched her daughter go out, and then she looked at the people at the table and said, "Look, my daughter is kind. She will remember whoever treats her well for the rest of her life.

She always remembers other people's good deeds." After she finished speaking, she looked up at the people at the table.

Xu Lao Er is the best at flattering people, and besides, she is his own sister, so he just smiled and said, "My little sister knows how to love people.

If it weren't for her, I would have been able to pass the exam to become a teacher at the commune school. Don't worry, Mom, I will buy skirts and food for my sister every month after I get my salary."

When Mrs. Xu heard what he said, she looked up and said, "Mom, my salary is not high, and I have children to support, but don't worry, I don't have to do anything at home.

I cleaned the house and did the laundry for her, to make sure my little sister wouldn't have to work hard after coming home."

Brother Xu was still the same as usual, with an honest smile on his face: "Mom, I'm strong, whoever dares to bully my little sister, I will beat him to death."

"Grandma, when I grow up I will make a lot of money to spend for my aunt. Then I will marry a wife and we will make money together for my aunt." Shitou came back trotting. He heard his father's words from a distance and started to flatter him.

Mother Xu was very pleased to see this scene. She gave each of them a sweet date and personally put dumplings into their bowls: "You are good to your little sister, and your little sister can see it.

You all know what kind of person your little sister is. If you treat her well, she will definitely repay you a hundredfold. It's worth it."

That’s right. This year her sister-in-law made several sets of clothes for her, and she keeps them in the house as treasures.

"Aunt is back, come and eat." Shitou ran very fast and brought the food to Xu Ying and put it on the table.

Even the stools were moved in.

Xu Ying raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong? You're so attentive."

Xu Ying couldn't help but pinch the little guy's chubby face.

Shitou's face flushed instantly, and he said shyly, "Aunt, you can just pinch Tiger, but don't pinch mine."

"Why, why can't you do that?"

Shitou stretched his neck and said, "I'm grown up now. I'm nine years old this year. I'm a big boy now. Please don't pinch me like this anymore."

Xu Ying was happy. Although the kid was young, he acted like an adult: "Okay, okay, our Shitou has grown up. He can protect my aunt in the future, right?"

Shitou nodded and clenched his fists: "Yes, if anyone dares to bully my aunt, I will beat him down."

In front of the Xu family’s table, everyone was holding their bowls and eating dumplings with big mouthfuls, looking very happy.

But it was hard for the two families next door, especially Liu Haiyun, who could smell the fragrance coming from next door like a dog's nose.

She hadn't eaten meat for a month, and her mouth was full of the bitter taste of vegetables.

"Yimu, can you smell it? The people next door are eating meat. How come their life is so good that they eat meat every day?"

Wu Yimu didn't even raise his head. The corn bun in his hand instantly lost its fragrance: "Why do they have such a good life? They are the team leader and their children all have jobs, so how can they not have a good life?"

Liu Haiyun snorted coldly: "Isn't it because of his team leader? There are so many educated youths in our village, and none of them are good at studying.

Everyone knows Xu Shengcai. He is a gangster. I don't know how he got lucky to be admitted as a teacher in the commune. Maybe his father helped him a lot. "

And the captain's daughter, can she cook? Even a sow can climb a tree.

It really is good to be a leader.

"Shh, don't say that." Wu Yimu glanced at his wife and said.

Liu Haiyun disagreed: "What's the matter, I'm telling the truth and I'm not wrong.

Look at Xu Jiangmin, they are both captains, but they are worlds apart.

Look at what the couple eats and wears, and then look at the people next door."

"Hey, woman, you didn't eat or dress well before. If this gets out, your husband will probably embezzle a lot of money." Wu Yimu was unhappy.

"That's right." Liu Haiyun curled his lips.

He ate a few mouthfuls of food and returned to the house with a bitter face.

Zhou Huiru is right. The captain has been able to live a good life over the years thanks to everyone’s help.

Those who have evil hearts take the fruits of their labor and live a comfortable life for themselves.

The more I think about Liu Haiyun, the angrier I get, what a bastard.

Liu Haiyun gritted his teeth all night and even in his dream he reported Captain Xu and had him arrested.

"Silly woman, why are you smiling like an idiot? I'm going to work." Wu Yimu patted his wife's face, turned around and quickly put on his clothes.

Liu Haiyun was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly woken up. He was furious and said, "What are you doing? I almost saw Captain Xu being beaten."

"Who hit him? What happened to him?" Wu Yimu looked curious.

Liu Haiyun raised his head proudly: "The police beat him up. He was corrupt, so he deserved to be beaten.

It's all your fault. You ruined my beautiful dream."

"You really dare to think so. The captain is corrupt. Don't say such things." It would be good if this was true. If it wasn't true and they offended the captain, their family would not be able to stay in the village anymore.
