Chapter 52 Study hard
Zhong Meixian didn't want to say a word to him.
After this conversation, Zhong Meixian felt like she was ten years older in anxiety.
She wondered, could it be that times have really changed?
Why don’t you think about living a good life after getting married, but instead think about changing to another one if this one is not good enough?
This... won't people talk about it behind your back?
But then she remembered that her daughter-in-law was not someone who was afraid of what others said!
Zhong Meixian: It’s over. I’m even more anxious.
The old lady could only knead the dough seriously.
Gu Yanli marinated the fish and went out to wash his hands.
It's already dark outside.
Gu Jinfeng and the others also came back from the fields, and Lin Jingshen also went to the fields today.
Gu Shuhe, Lin Jiaojiao and the others were all at home. He had no right to speak just sitting at home, so he went to help with the work in the fields.
It’s over. One more manual point needs to be recorded.
When Lin Jingshen came back, he went to the kitchen immediately.
Chi Yue cooked last night and at noon today, so Lin Jingshen thought that Chi Yue would cook tonight again.
So as soon as the shovel was put away, he went into the kitchen.
As a result, Zhong Meixian was the only one in the kitchen rolling noodles.
Seeing Zhong Meixian, Lin Jingshen asked, "Grandma, are you cooking today?"
Zhong Meixian didn't even raise her eyelids and said, "Well, who else can you count on to do it?" Zhong Meixian couldn't control her own son, but she felt that she was more than capable of controlling her grandson.
"I thought it was Xiaoyue. By the way, where is Xiaoyue? Is she in the main room?"
As soon as Lin Jingshen finished speaking, a voice came from behind him, "Looking for me?"
Lin Jingshen immediately turned around and smiled, "Xiao Yue!"
Then he saw Wen Tang holding Chi Yue's arm, and Lin Jingshen called her "Auntie!"
Wen Tang smiled and nodded, "Good boy!"
Lin Jingshen: "..."
He felt that he was just calling out to someone normally, but for some reason, he always felt like Wen Tang was taking advantage of him.
Wen Tang was not such a tactless person. When they reached the kitchen door and saw Lin Jingshen there, Wen Tang let go of Chi Yue's arm and went into the kitchen first, giving the couple room to fully display their abilities.
Wen Tang entered the kitchen and said to Zhong Meixian who was rolling out noodles, "Mom, are you almost done with this dough?"
Although Zhong Meixian was angry because of her son's words, she did not dare to show her anger to her daughter-in-law. She just nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, it's done. It will be done soon."
"You must be hungry. We can eat soon after the vegetables are cooked."
"Just wait a little longer!"
As she spoke, she leaned over to call Gu Jinfeng, "I'll ask your elder sister to come in and help me boil the pot."
Wen Tang quickly spoke up to stop her, "Mom, no need to call me elder sister."
Seeing Zhong Meixian's puzzled expression, Wen Tang told her, "Yueyue said that she will fry the rabbit. She is an expert at frying rabbit meat. You just need to make the pancakes."
"I'll light the fire."
Zhong Meixian nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be fine on my side."
She took the knife and quickly cut the rolled noodles a few times to make it easier to put into the pot. Then she reached for the ladle and said, "I'll add some water to the pot, cut some sweet potatoes and put them in there, and make some soup so that it won't taste dry later!"
"Yeah, OK!"
Lin Jingshen at the door asked Chi Yue, "Xiao Yue, are you here to cook?"
Chi Yue nodded and said, "Your uncle caught a rabbit and roasted the rabbit meat and made cakes tonight."
When it comes to catching rabbits, Lin Jingshen feels ashamed. He has been able to read and write since he was a child, but when it comes to catching fish, shrimps, and rabbits, he is really not good at it.
These have always been his uncle's specialties.
So Lin Jingshen scratched his head and said with shame, "My uncle has been good at these since he was a child, but I... I can't."
Chi Yue looked around and saw no one approaching the kitchen door in the darkness.
Chi Yue suddenly moved closer to Lin Jingshen and said to him in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "A man should not say that he is not good enough."
After Chi Yue finished speaking, she smiled at him, turned around and went into the kitchen.
Only Lin Jingshen was left standing at the kitchen door. He was stunned at first, then his face flushed and he began to gasp for breath. Then Lin Jingshen fled in panic like a sheep that had strayed into a wolf's den.
In the kitchen, Chi Yue cut two more potatoes and chopped up the lotus root that was left over from yesterday. She put them together with the rabbit meat and stir-fried them in the pan.
The fragrance spread two miles away.
A few pounds of rabbit meat, potatoes, and lotus root slices were stir-fried into two pots.
At the dinner table, Lin Jiaojiao was holding a pancake with rabbit meat in her hand. As she ate until her mouth was full of oil, she kept mumbling, "It's over. I don't want to go to school at all now."
When Gu Jinfeng heard this, she said without thinking, "If you don't want to go to school, then go to work in the fields."
As a result, this time Lin Jiaojiao heard it and shook her head without hesitation, "No, my aunt said that I have to study hard."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jinfeng looked at Wen Tang beside Gu Yanli with some surprise. She probably didn't expect that Wen Tang, the new sister-in-law, would tell her niece Lin Jiaojiao to study hard.
Although she didn't expect it, Gu Jinfeng is not a person who doesn't know what's good for him.
Although nowadays many families do not send girls to school, thinking that it is better for them to earn more work points at home, the Lin family had few children, and when Zhong Meixian and Gu Juyuan were young, they always thought of ways to send their children to school no matter how difficult it was.
Especially since she also let her son read books, she didn't think of not allowing her daughter to read books.
However, people around me do not approve of girls studying. Few people would tell a girl to study hard.
Just these words, "My aunt said I should study hard," made Gu Jinfeng remember in her heart, that is, no matter how Wen Tang behaved, she was not a bad person.
So Gu Jinfeng said, "Since your aunt has said so, then you should study hard."
"Yes, I know. I will definitely study hard."
Then the family's meal became hotter and hotter. Although everyone still didn't say much, the atmosphere became more intimate.
At Gu Xiaogu's house, Gu Jin was at the dinner table that night. He rarely reached out his hand to Xu Ancheng's wife and said, "Let me hold the child for you."
Xu Ancheng's youngest child is just eight months old, not yet one year old. He can neither sit still nor walk by himself.
Even the adults have to hold her while eating.
But in the past, Xu Ancheng's wife always held the baby herself.
If Xu Ancheng finishes eating first, he will hold her.
Gu Jin never lent a hand.
If the child is making a fuss, Gu Jin might even complain that his daughter-in-law doesn't know how to take care of the child.
I think about how she used to raise three children by herself. Neither her husband nor her mother-in-law helped her, but she still managed to get through it all on her own.
And it’s not as difficult as having three daughters-in-law.
In fact, Gu Jin thought carefully about how difficult her life was when she was young. In fact, it was quite difficult, but everyone was going through the same thing, so it didn't seem particularly difficult for her.
The main thing is that neither her husband nor her mother-in-law cares about her.
Zhang Fen was very surprised that her mother-in-law wanted to help her hold the baby. She held the baby in one hand and ate with the other, and it was very difficult for her to eat.
