In the past, he always waited for the food to be served and then ate it directly. But this time, he waited for a long time and the people in the kitchen still didn't come out.
He shouted at the top of his voice, "Old woman, why hasn't the food been served yet? I'm hungry."
Feng Yun took a mouthful of rice, rolled his eyes, and called out to the children, "Eat, eat well, and eat more meat."
As he said this, he put a few pieces of meat in each of the children's bowls and said, "It's good for your nutrition."
Hu Chunxing didn't react much, but Hu Chunhua and Hu Guangcong looked at each other with some disapproval.
Seeing them like this, Feng Yun slowly swallowed the food in his mouth.
"Don't say I'm being unfair to your father. Ask yourselves, I do more work at home and earn more money, so why should I serve him? And why should he act like a boss and wait for me to serve him?
It will be the same when you grow up. Men should know how to love their wives, and women should stand up for themselves. Women don't get married to be a punching bag or to serve others.
Don't think women are born to do laundry and cooking. Everyone learns slowly. We are all human beings, with hands and feet. Are women born with these abilities? It's just a matter of whether or not they put in the effort.
Several children looked at Feng Yun in amazement, even the usually silent Hu Chunxing was no exception.
"Mom, what you said is really new." Hu Guangcong said embarrassedly. His mother's words almost set men and women in opposition. He felt so uncomfortable when he heard it.
Feng Yun picked up the last piece of meat on the plate and put it in Chunhua's bowl, giving Hu Guangcong a blank look.
"What's so surprising about this? Didn't great men say that women hold up half the sky? We are women, and we are important too. We can shine in our jobs, so why should we waste our time doing laundry and cooking?"
Hu Chunxing's eyes moved, and she slowly lowered her head and ate quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.
Although Hu Chunhua found this idea absurd, she did not object and ate her meal quietly.
But I was thinking about this problem in my heart.
People say that daughters are money-losing goods. She didn’t really understand it before. She has been working since she can remember. Although she needs to eat, can’t the work she does support herself?
It's just that everyone said so, and she never thought there was anything wrong with it.
During this period, her mother often said some incredible things, but those words made her feel very comfortable.
She didn't think too much and just followed her mother's ideas.
"Hey, I was wondering why you guys didn't come out for so long. It seems like you were eating in the kitchen by yourselves."
Hu Jianguo, who had been waiting for food for a long time, finally couldn't help but go to the kitchen, but saw several people eating together, so he immediately walked over quickly.
There was no meat left on the plate, only a few bamboo shoots, and the eggs were almost eaten up.
His face cracked, "Old woman, what's wrong with you? Why don't you serve the food? You've eaten all the good dishes. What am I going to eat then?"
Feng Yun pointed at the dish of green vegetables and the bamboo shoots dripping with oil on the plate, "Aren't there more vegetables?"
"But there's no meat!" Hu Jianguo was unconvinced. "There's so much meat! I saw you cut so much, and you didn't leave any for me?"
He didn't dare to say anything bad to Feng Yun, so his unfriendly gaze fell on the children.
Except for Hu Chunxing, Hu Chunhua and Hu Guangcong, the three children all took several steps back to varying degrees.
Feng Yun snorted, "Isn't this enough for you? Today's dishes are much better than before. At least there's lard in the bamboo shoots. What else do you want? You insist on eating meat. Do you think I don't know? Have you ever thought about bringing some pork to your aunt?"
Hu Jianguo's heart skipped a beat and he quickly denied it, "That's not true."
The old woman was truly amazing. How did she know that he had such thoughts?
It’s just that in the end, you just can’t bear to let go.
"You'd better not." Feng Yun quickly finished the rice in the bowl and put the bowl on the stove.
"Okay, now that you have a meal ready to eat, you should cherish it. You said you would do all these things, so you can do them in the future and experience the hard work I went through."
After saying that, Feng Yun left the kitchen.
Going to the city tomorrow is not just going to the city.
At the beginning, the fourth child listened to Xu Lijuan's instigation and insisted on going to the city to repeat his studies. At that time, the school enrollment in the city was very limited, and he did not have a city household registration, so it was very difficult for him to go there.
I relied on my student status and living expenses, and spent more than 300 yuan in half a year.
Otherwise, with so many laborers in the Hu family, why can't they eat meat for a few meals a month?
Didn't he always say that he had to rely on himself to study and pass the exam? Now that she didn't care about him anymore, she wanted to go and see how he was doing.
After sorting out the things he brought from Feng's house, Feng Yun took them all to his room.
"Dad, I'm done eating." Hu Guangcong didn't want to look at his father's gloomy face in the kitchen. It was too depressing. He always felt that his father was about to explode. So he quickly ate a few bites, put down the bowl, shouted embarrassedly, and ran away.
Hu Chunxing sat at the door of the stove and ate quietly without making any sound.
Hu Chunhua's heart was trembling. Her hand was injured and she couldn't hold the bowl. The bowl was on the stove, and the posture of holding the chopsticks with her right hand was also awkward.
She hadn't finished her meal and couldn't leave, so she could only try her best not to look at her father's expression. She saw Chun Xing eating there as if no one was around, and she admired her very much.
For so many years, she had a hard life at home, but no matter how hard it was, she could still get a good look from time to time. On the contrary, her third sister was the one who never got a good look.
But the third sister can remain so calm in front of her parents, so why can't she?
Cheer-ing herself up in her heart, Hu Chunhua tried hard not to go see her father.
A pair of chopsticks appeared in front of her, and soon, two of the three pieces of meat in the bowl were picked up. Hu Chunhua looked at Hu Jianguo in a daze.
"dad……"
"What are you looking at?" Hu Jianguo glared at her fiercely. "What's the point of eating meat, little girl? I, your father, work in the fields every day, so I need to nourish my body. What's wrong with you leaving a few pieces of meat for me as a filial gift?
I haven't even said anything to you yet. What's wrong with you? You're hiding in the kitchen eating meat without even calling me. Do you still think of me as your dad?"
Hu Chunhua blushed and felt guilty.
When her mother said not to call her father, although she felt bad about it, she did feel inexplicably excited in her heart.
After all, when her father spoke up for her grandmother without saying a word just now, she felt resentful.
But she felt that this was not right. No matter how bad her father was, he was still her father, and as a child, she should not have that kind of thoughts.
Hu Chunhua silently picked up the last piece of meat in the bowl and gave it to Hu Jianguo.
Hu Jianguo's expression looked better.
