Chapter 467: Bubbles of Happiness
Lin Tang washed and cut the vegetables, and Lin Zhicheng estimated the time and strolled in.
Seeing that she had almost prepared everything, he sat on a small stool and started to make a fire.
Very discerning!
Lin Tang saw him startled and said, "Light the fire and go out. It's hot in the kitchen."
It was already noon and the sun was high in the sky.
The temperature outside was at least 34 or 35 degrees Celsius, and it was even more stuffy inside the house.
Lin Zhicheng wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "I'll help you! Aunt, if you have anything, just call me. I can do a lot of things now."
After he finished speaking, he saw Lin Tang was about to wash the pot, so he quickly took out a ladle from the water tank, scooped a ladle of water and poured it into the water.
Seeing that he was unwilling to go out, Lin Tang shook his head and did not force him.
The meal was cooked quickly, and the kitchen was filled with a mouth-watering overbearing aroma.
Lin Zhicheng was so close that his saliva flowed unrestrainedly.
"Aunt, it's great to have you at home." He suddenly sighed.
As soon as my aunt comes back, we have meat to eat at home from time to time. These days are so wonderful!
As soon as the young boy stuck out his butt, Lin Tang knew what he was talking about.
She glanced at Lin Zhicheng sideways, "What's wrong? Didn't you have enough to eat at home?"
How could Lin Zhicheng dare to respond to this?
If he dared to say he was not full, his grandmother would not care whether he was the eldest grandson or not, and would definitely let him go hungry for two meals to cure his problem.
The young boy scratched his head and said, "I can eat my fill, but I'm still craving meat."
The words were honest and clear.
Lin Tang was very pleased with his nephew's honesty and smiled, "We've eaten meat quite a lot at home. Do you know when your friend's family last ate meat?"
Hearing what his aunt said, Lin Zhicheng looked even more embarrassed.
The last time Xiaohua and the others ate meat seemed to be when the brigade distributed pork...
Compared to them, he and Zhixuan are already so happy that they are bubbling with joy.
"Aunt, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been greedy." Lin Zhicheng blushed in embarrassment.
Lin Tang didn't think this was greedy.
She rubbed her eldest nephew's head and spoke gently.
"This isn't greed, it's a sign that you're growing. Not only do children crave meat, adults do too."
"Do you know why your grandma cooks meat in several portions?"
Lin Zhicheng didn't think much about it and said, "Because meat is expensive."
"What else?"
The young boy was stunned.
besides? !
Lin Tang looked at the confusion on the little guy's face and frowned slightly.
She patiently explained, "It's also because meat coupons are in short supply. And the most important thing is, it's hard to go from extravagant to frugal. Your grandmother is worried that you've gotten used to eating good food and won't be able to eat whole grains anymore."
Li Xiuli has her own wisdom as a rural woman.
In fact, she doesn't understand why it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
But she knew that her family's financial situation was just right. The third child was getting married, her daughter needed to prepare a dowry, and the four children had to go to school... There were a lot of expenses at home.
If she doesn't save some money now, she and the head of the family will probably cry later.
Furthermore, children have unstable habits. If they are fed meat every other day, not only will their sense of happiness from eating meat decrease, but they will also develop bad habits.
This was something she didn't want to see.
Therefore, Li Xiuli is very careful about the frequency and amount of meat she eats.
After hearing Lin Tang's words, Lin Zhicheng fell silent.
He was taught by his family to think independently since he was a child.
If you think about it for a moment, you will understand.
I was shocked to find that my brother and sister and I really had the problem that my aunt had mentioned.
The young boy frowned slightly.
"Aunt, I understand. Don't worry, I will teach my younger brothers and sisters well."
There is meat today, so forget it.
Tomorrow.
Start by eating wild vegetable pancakes and change your younger brothers and sisters’ bad habits.
Just like what my aunt said, there is nothing wrong with wanting to eat meat, but you can't develop the bad habit of being picky. He will definitely supervise his younger siblings well!
Lin Tang was very confident in his nephew's appeal and influence, so he picked up a piece of spicy rabbit meat and handed it to his mouth.
"Give me a taste."
Lin Zhicheng, who was originally filled with resentment, suddenly brightened up his eyes and narrowed them in beauty.
He swallowed the meat and praised, "It's delicious! The meat cooked by my aunt is the best."
Lin Tang likes to hear nice words the most.
Especially her eldest nephew's serious expression really touched her heart.
"I also made some chicken soup with some good stuff in it. Drink some later."
Lin Zhicheng naturally agreed, "Yeah."
The two of them brought out the food, and the Lin family came back from work.
The four little ones have already washed their hands actively and are serving boiled water and water for washing their faces to the adults who have returned home.
"Tangtang has prepared the meal, it smells so good." Lin Lu said with a grin.
Li Xiuli also smiled brightly, "It's so hot, you've worked hard, Tangtang, go wash up quickly, and I'll bring the food."
Lin Tang avoided her mother's hand and put the dishes on the table swiftly.
"No, Mom, you sit down first. Zhicheng and I will take care of it. I've been sitting at home all morning. It's not that hard. You're the ones who are tired."
After just a few words, the Lin family had already washed their hands and sat down on stools.
It was a chilly day, so I just ate something and started working. After a morning, I was so hungry.
Lin Zhicheng brought out the dry rice and placed the rice bowl in the middle of the table.
"My aunt fried rabbit meat. It was delicious."
Thinking of the fat rabbits in the backyard, I was already thinking about the next meal before I even finished this one.
"Grandma, when are we going to kill and eat our rabbit?" he asked casually.
Li Xiuli had just swallowed a mouthful of meat when she was almost choked by a word from her eldest grandson.
Looking at Lin Zhicheng, he said angrily, "We're eating right now, and you're already thinking about the next meal?"
Without waiting for the boy to answer, she continued, "Study hard and get a certificate at the end of the semester, and I'll kill you a rabbit."
Having said that, he looked at Lin Tang with heartache.
When my daughter was in school, she rarely ate meat.
Eating an egg occasionally is good enough.
Lin Tang: “?!”
When he heard the two people mention the certificate, he suddenly realized something and his face froze.
Forehead……
The certificates and prizes I received in Hai City are still gathering dust somewhere. I forgot to take them out.
She had let Comrade Gu take a look at it on the train before, and for fear that it would be damaged, she found an opportunity to move the certificate and the prize to the system space, and completely forgot about it after she came back.
Lin Tang ate his meal in silence, as he was worried about something.
He quickly finished his meal and slipped back to his room while Li Xiuli and Zhou Mei were clearing the table.
He took out the certificates and prizes obtained from Hai City from the system space and returned to the yard.
Lin Lu knew that Lin Tang was going to take photos for his family today, so he changed into new clothes long ago.
Now I'm lying in the rocking chair, waiting for others.
Seeing her daughter holding something red, she sat up and asked curiously, "Tangtang, what are you holding in your hand?"
Lin Tang sat in another rocking chair and handed over the certificate.
"Dad, look at this!"
Seeing that she was acting mysteriously, Lin Lu smiled and opened the certificate.
It says:
Comrade Lin Tang, on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, disregarded his own safety to save the lives of the people. He is a patriotic, people-loving, brave and fearless comrade.
This certificate is issued to encourage you!
Behind it is time, and then stamped with the red seal of Haishi’s propaganda system.
