Volume 1 Chapter 118 Sheng Wanyan takes everyone to have supper
"Sister Jiaxiu, get in the car."
Wu Jiaxiu sat in the back seat, and the two went to the old transaction location.
"Sister Jiaxiu, what's wrong?"
Wu Jiaxiu looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she immediately whispered her story to Sheng Wanyan.
"Wanyan, I'm pregnant."
"Really? Congratulations, Sister Jiaxiu, you're going to be a mother."
Wu Jiaxiu also touched her belly with a happy look on her face. She had been married for more than a year.
If she doesn't get pregnant again, her mother-in-law will start to wonder if there's something wrong with her body.
"So I'm here to buy some fabric from you to prepare clothes and diapers for my unborn baby."
"It's better to have a dark color so it won't get dirty. Sorry to bother you."
Sheng Wanyan nodded when she heard this. She hadn't done business with Wu Jiaxiu for a long time. She was going to resign in four months, and by then she would no longer have this income.
However, I have to maintain a good relationship with Wu Jiaxiu. After all, my family is still in Chengdu. If anything happens at home, there is someone who can help.
Moreover, Wu Jiaxiu's husband works in a coal yard, and the family needs a lot of coal briquettes in winter.
In short, all these social etiquette requires a certain amount of effort to maintain.
"Sister Jiaxiu, don't be polite to me. I will ask for you tomorrow and try to get you some softer cloth."
"Wanyan, thank you so much."
Wu Jiaxiu was really glad that she had a good relationship with Sheng Wanyan. She knew the people in the Propaganda Department, and Sheng Wanyan never did business with them.
I took advantage of the fact that we were the same age and was able to gain this advantage at the beginning.
"Then I'll go home first. Sister Jiaxiu, please be careful on the road."
"Don't worry, I'm almost three months pregnant now, and the doctor said it's stable."
Wu Jiaxiu waved to her, walked slowly home, and made an appointment to trade here the next morning.
After Sheng Wanyan and the others left, he rode his bicycle home. Before going home, he took out two big pig's trotters from the space.
She really wanted to eat braised pig's trotters, so she took two home and braised them. She could add some to the noodles when she cooked them and use them as a topping.
Sheng Wanyan even wrapped the two pig's trotters in newspaper to prevent the middle-aged women from seeing them and shouting.
When Grandma Sheng got home and saw the two pig's trotters, her eyes lit up. The trotters looked very fat and could be eaten for several days.
"This pig's trotter is quite fat. I'm sure your grandfather will be happy to have it as a snack."
"We'll make braised pig's trotters to eat, which goes well with my grandfather's wine."
When Grandpa Sheng heard this, he looked up at the big pig's trotter in her hand. As expected, his granddaughter was the best and understood him.
"Okay, use one to make braised pig's trotters, and hang the other up to eat in a few days."
Grandma Sheng would not allow two such good pig's trotters to be eaten all at once, the meat had to be eaten slowly.
"good."
Sheng Wanyan listened to Grandma Sheng. She didn't plan to braise both pig's trotters at once. It would be very good to keep one for making soup at other times.
"I'll make the braised pig's trotters."
Grandma Sheng was afraid that she would mess with the ingredients, so she quickly took the pig's trotter from her hand and took small steps into the kitchen.
After all, braised pig's trotters is quite complicated and my granddaughter's cooking skills are not up to that level.
Sheng Wanyan: “…”
It seems that her grandmother doesn't know enough about her.
"The braised pig's trotters your grandma made are really delicious."
Grandpa Sheng couldn't help drooling just thinking about it. His wife's cooking skills were truly amazing.
Sheng Wanyan has always known that Grandma Sheng is a good cook. She always wants to eat the food she cooks at home.
However, Sheng Wanyan still went in to help her. It would be better to let her do the task of chopping the pig's trotters. It would be better for her not to do such heavy work.
When Sheng's father came home from get off work, this kind of heavy work naturally fell on him. He chopped and chopped skillfully, and the pig's trotters were chopped into pieces.
The rest of the work was left to Grandma Sheng, while Mother Sheng prepared dinner on the side. An hour later, the smell of braised pig's trotters spread throughout the entire building.
"Who's cooking meat again?"
"It smells so good, what a sin!"
"It came from the Sheng family again. Why are the dates so different?"
"Alas~"
"Grandma, I want to eat meat."
"I want meat too. I want meat too!"
"What are you eating? You are just losing money. Eat your sweet potatoes."
Mother Chen upstairs cursed her granddaughter a few times, saying that she was just a money-loser and yet she wanted to eat meat. What a sweet dream she was having.
"The Sheng family eats and drinks well, but my youngest son suffers in the countryside. I'd better eat them to death!"
"Bah! A whole family of bitches!"
When the daughters-in-law of the Chen family heard their mother cursing the Sheng family for eating meat, they looked at each other, immediately lowered their heads and worked silently without saying a word.
They have become accustomed to it. Whenever there is anything good about the Sheng family, their mother-in-law will criticize it. Their mother-in-law cannot bear to see the Sheng family doing well.
The people next door could hear Chen's mother's scolding clearly. The Chen family really refused to give up and always kept an eye on the Sheng family.
The Sheng family is living a very prosperous life nowadays. The sons and daughters have found such good partners, they should get along well with each other.
If the Sheng family gets angry again, there will be no way for the Chen family to get help when the day comes that they need the Sheng family's help.
I really can't figure it out. I'm afraid the Chen family will have a hard time these days~
Sheng Wanyan didn't know what was happening in the Chen family. She had just finished taking a shower and was sitting in the living room, waiting to eat pig's trotters.
Seeing her greedy look, Grandma Sheng poked her head in amusement.
"It won't be that fast. Eat some cakes and wait."
"Wait two more hours."
"So long?"
"The braised pig's trotters have to be well-seasoned. If you want to enjoy the delicacy, you just have to wait."
When Sheng Wanyan heard this, she could only continue to wait, and she couldn't help swallowing when she smelled the smell.
After thinking about it, she decided to go back to her room and translate. The more she smelled it, the more addicted she became. She was afraid that her willpower was not strong enough and she would not be able to resist eating it secretly.
Sheng Wanyan opened the royalties she had received and counted them, finding a total of 600 yuan.
She put all the money into the space, and tomorrow she would send out the books she had translated during this period.
Also, when she goes to join the army, she will have to change a new address with the newspaper, otherwise it will be troublesome to send books to her because she is no longer in Chengdu.
"Yan'er, come and eat."
Grandma Sheng knocked on her door. Sheng Wanyan put away the books and opened the door immediately.
“Here I come!”
Sheng Wanyan had been craving for the braised pig's trotters. Grandma Sheng knew that she didn't like fatty food, so she picked out a large piece of fat and lean meat for her.
Grandpa Sheng has already taken out his wine, he is also waiting.
"This grandfather and grandson, their greedy expressions are exactly the same."
"Humph, we are grandfather and grandson, how can we be different?"
Grandpa Sheng said this arrogantly, immediately filled his glass with wine, grabbed a pig's trotter and started eating.
Sheng Wanyan couldn't help it and started to eat it. The whole family was led by her to have a midnight snack for some unknown reason.
Mother Sheng really didn’t expect that there would be a day when she would have to eat midnight snacks. In the past, she would smile secretly when she could have a full meal.
This is the first time they are not sleeping at this time and eating here secretly.
