Chapter 239 Hateful Carrot
Mother Xu's eyes were smiling, her heart was filled with warmth, and she deliberately praised:
"Our Ningning understands Mom the best. Unlike some people who have no tacit understanding even after half a lifetime."
Father Xu's expression gradually turned ugly, and he complained silently in his heart, what's so special about a few broken flowers?
"It's just a few flowers, wait and I'll cut them for you."
Mother Xu smiled coldly. Never mind. They were already eighty years old and she was too lazy to care about it.
"No need, my daughter and son-in-law have already prepared it for me, so I won't bother you!"
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards her little grandchildren.
"Dabao, Xiaobao, grandma is going to make dumplings for you."
The two little guys nodded obediently and ran across the street with their short legs.
Father Xu hesitated to speak, wanting to say something nice to appease his wife, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.
He sighed softly, thought about it, and finally decided to cut a few rose buds from the flower field.
............
Mother Xu became busy in the kitchen. Now that her daughter was pregnant, she needed to eat something nutritious, so she prepared to make dumplings with several different fillings.
Xu Wanning pursed her lips and smiled, still thinking in her heart whether she should say something good on behalf of Xu's father. After all, Xu's father was just a little conservative in his thinking.
"Mom, let me help you!"
Mother Xu smiled and waved her hand, saying slowly:
"No need, just play with the kids, Mom will do it."
"You, just take care of yourself now, and don't interfere with other things."
Xu Wanning still went forward to peel the shrimp shells, peeling out the white and tender shrimp meat, and then removed the shrimp thread from the shrimp meat.
"Mom, I'm not that squeamish. The only thing I had during this pregnancy was morning sickness and a poor appetite in the first few months, but I'm fine now."
Mother Xu smiled gently. No matter what, she couldn't bear to see her daughter suffer.
She had no choice before, but now that she is back, of course she doesn't want her precious daughter to work with a bulging belly.
"Silly boy, let me do it. Shrimp smells fishy, don't touch it."
She picked up the basin of fresh shrimps and placed it in front of herself.
"I know you want to speak up for your dad, but I'm not angry at all!"
"We're an old married couple, and I'm too lazy to be angry with him."
"Your father is just an old antique. Only I can appreciate him."
Hearing this, Xu Wanning couldn't help but laugh secretly. This was probably the love of the older generation, right?
She had heard that when Xu's mother was still unmarried, her family was quite wealthy and had many handsome young men pursuing her!
I don't know why, but Xu's mother chose Xu's father, a poor boy from a poor family.
But it was not a wrong choice. Xu's father was what people in later generations often called a potential stock. After marriage, he became the director of a steel plant through his own efforts.
Xu's mother prepared pork and shrimp dumpling fillings and put a lot of carrots in it.
Xu Wanning, who had been eagerly waiting to eat the shrimp dumplings, suddenly lost her composure. Carrots are so sweet and unpalatable.
"Mom, I don't want to eat carrots........."
Mother Xu chuckled. Her precious daughter has never liked carrots since she was a child, but eating them is good for the body.
She also added shrimp and pork to suppress the carrot flavor.
