Paying for it himself is no problem. Zhou Cunzong had asked his older brother before how much the materials for a bicycle cost.
Although Zhou Cunzong had to give half of his salary to household expenses after he started working, he had still managed to save some money over the years.
After all, although he was just a logistics worker at the supply and marketing cooperative, he sometimes had ways to make money, which was an open secret within the cooperative.
He can afford a bicycle; at worst, he'll empty his own savings and shamelessly freeload at home.
"Table 2, Table 3, your dishes are ready, come and serve them."
Just as Zhou Cunzong was assuring his parents that he would pay for the bicycle himself, a waiter from the state-run restaurant came out and shouted.
Zhou Cunzong and his two brothers immediately stood up and went to serve the dishes.
The whole roast goose was chopped into pieces, as was the poached chicken. The dishes were not divided into two portions just because the Zhou family was divided into two tables.
Anyone who wants a particular dish can take their bowl to another table and get it.
Chen Suwen took out a roast goose leg and put it in her own bowl, and gave the other one to Zhou Qingyun.
No one else in the Zhou family had any objections; such a delicacy as roast goose leg was naturally meant for the head of the family.
Anyway, they had other meat to eat, and two chicken legs, so Chen Suwen decided to give them to her eldest and youngest sons.
Zhou Cunming, this son who has "married out," can forget about eating the leg; he can eat other parts of the meat.
As for children.
How do you divide two chicken drumsticks among four children?
It would be better not to give them any at all.
However, they could each have one goose wing and one chicken wing.
The others didn't bother to pay attention to who got the leg; they all grabbed the other pieces of meat and stuffed them into their mouths.
"Wow! This crispy roast goose is really amazing. The skin is fragrant and crispy, and the meat is full of juice."
Zhou Cunzong couldn't help but give a thumbs up; this roast goose was just too delicious.
Zhou Cunzhi, who had just taken a bite of a chicken leg, also picked up a piece of roast goose and praised the crispy roast goose highly.
"Lexin, eat quickly, or everyone will snatch all the meat away." Zhou Min put a piece of goose breast in Zhao Lexin's bowl and urged her to eat quickly.
"Mmm, I won't be polite." Zhao Lexin happily gnawed on the roast goose meat while keeping an eye on the other pieces of meat.
The poached chicken was sweet and delicious, and the roast goose was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside; both were very tasty.
And then there's sweet and sour pork with pineapple, which is so delicious and has a wonderfully sour and sweet flavor that really whets the appetite.
Chen Suwen was gnawing on a roast goose leg when she looked up at the other goose leg that was about to be placed in her bowl, and glared at him.
"You can eat this, I'll just eat this."
"If you don't eat, see how I deal with you," Chen Suwen warned Zhou Qingyun.
She has something good to share with him, but he's refusing it now?
If he doesn't want to eat, she will definitely arrange for him to eat a particularly bitter and nourishing medicinal diet.
When it comes to stewing medicinal herbs, she will definitely choose all kinds of herbs with particularly bitter tastes, which can help to get the initial effect but also make it unbearably bitter.
She would definitely keep an eye on Zhou Qingyun and make him eat every last drop.
Zhou Qingyun was clearly aware of his wife's behavior, so he obediently ate the roast goose leg.
The others who had been watching his actions were disappointed.
I thought Dad would give them the roast goose leg after Mom refused, but Dad ate it himself.
Zhou Qingyun glanced at the group of guys eyeing the roast goose leg in her hand, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like the food? Don't you want to eat it?"
The others shook their heads in unison, "No, no, it's delicious, we want more."
Zhou Qingyun watched as they devoured the food on the table in a flash, his smile unchanged.
"Chen Suwen, has your family struck it rich? The whole family is eating at a state-run restaurant?"
Just as the Zhou family was enjoying their meal, He Caiying, who had come to the state-run restaurant to find her daughter-in-law, was shocked to see them.
Today, the neighbors on Guangming Road have been talking about the Zhou family for a long time, saying that the whole family went out to do something they don't know.
They were all dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, especially Chen Suwen, an old woman who was already a grandmother, who was still wearing a red dress. She was simply flamboyant and restless.
When He Caiying saw Chen Suwen's made-up face, her face was filled with jealousy and disdain.
"Hey Ah Xian's grandma, you're already a grandma, why are you still dressing up so... extravagantly?"
"Even young women and housewives wouldn't dress like this anymore, and you actually came out dressed like this."
"What? Are you going to go out and hook up with other old men?" He Caiying asked maliciously.
Having eaten until she was about 70-80% full, Chen Suwen put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth, and looked at He Caiying coldly after hearing her harsh words.
What I wear is none of your business. Did I spend your money?
"My husband likes me this way, what's it to you?"
"What? Your husband isn't treating you well, so you're trying to get attention from me now?"
Ever since Zhang Hongxue, the daughter-in-law, ran back to her parents' home, the Sun family's situation has gradually deteriorated.
The Sun family thought it made no difference whether Zhang Hongxue was there or not, since she hadn't done anything in her husband's family before.
She can't do housework or take care of children; she just stays at home like a mascot, expecting to be waited on hand and foot.
Unexpectedly, after Zhang Hongxue left, their family's usually good luck turned bad.
Sun Qian made a mistake at work and was scolded by his boss; Sun Tong was also scolded and given a demerit by his boss for a mistake at work.
