This little girl is something else! She's managed to get her hands on some fabric. Send her some more money when you reply in a couple of days, don't let money hold you back.
After looking at the contents of the package, he picked up the letter that was attached to it and examined it.
It turned out that she had traded all this fabric in other villages, intending to make clothes for her niece or nephew, as well as her sister-in-law.
Joy is evident in every word.
However, the entire two-page letter didn't mention him, the eldest brother, at all! Xie Yan felt a chill run down his spine after reading it.
This little girl has completely forgotten about her older brother.
Feeling disheartened, Xie Yan found paper and pen and immediately wrote a reply to Xie Yuanyuan, emphasizing his own importance and writing in bold and large characters: "Comrade Xie Yuanyuan, if it weren't for my powerful older brother, where would you get a sister-in-law!"
You can't forget your roots. You can't forget you have an older brother just because you have a sister-in-law...
After finishing the letter, Xie Yan looked down and saw his silly cat rubbing against his legs, seemingly begging for attention.
He couldn't help but smile, reached out and picked up Blackie, gently petting the cat for a while before putting it down and starting to tidy up the mess he had made on the floor.
Pick out the mushrooms that are suitable for stewing for Yu Yuehui at this time, and put the rest into the space, thinking that it will be convenient to take them out when they are ready to eat.
After doing all that, Xie Yan went out and picked out a plump old hen. He cleaned it up quickly and neatly, then hung it outside to drain.
After all that work, it was getting late, so he turned around and went inside to cook himself some noodles.
He mixed in the meat sauce he had prepared earlier, then grabbed a handful of stir-fried tofu pieces, stirred it well, and ate it. The taste was surprisingly good; in Xie Yan's opinion, it was even more delicious than the zha jiang mian he had eaten in his later life.
After finishing the noodles, it was getting dark.
Xie Yan quickly picked up the chicken and headed towards his mother-in-law's room.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw Liu Lanlan feeding the pigs.
Liu Lanlan had just finished feeding the pigs when she turned around and saw Xie Yan walking towards her in the distance. Her gaze involuntarily fell on the chicken he was carrying.
The chicken was plump and full, clearly raised with great care by my sister-in-law.
Seeing this, Xie Yan handed the chicken in his hand to her, saying, "Sister-in-law, I've already prepared this chicken. Could you help me stew it tomorrow morning? I'll take it to the hospital for Mother and Yuehui to drink."
Looking at the plump chicken, Liu Lanlan estimated that with such a large quantity, there would definitely be plenty left over after the hospital finished feeding it.
Then she and Maodan will also be able to get some meat.
Thinking this, she couldn't suppress the smile on her face and quickly said, "Oh, if you want to stew chicken, just tell your sister-in-law. We have chicken here too, just stew it. You can keep the ones over there for Yuehui to eat during her postpartum period!"
"Why go through all that trouble?"
Xie Yan simply smiled and did not respond.
The next morning, Xie Yan got up early, took the only thermos in the house, and went straight to his sister-in-law's room.
Before you even get close, you can smell a strong aroma of chicken from afar.
Upon entering the kitchen, one is immediately struck by the enticing golden hue of the chicken soup simmering in the pot, and the tender, juicy chicken meat. Just by looking at it, one knows it must be incredibly delicious.
To be honest, the aroma immediately made Xie Yan's mouth water, and he couldn't help but swallow.
Liu Lanlan noticed Xie Yan's expression and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
She got up before dawn to prepare this pot of chicken soup.
She was afraid of wasting such a good chicken, so she even put in the dates, goji berries, and carrots that she usually wouldn't put in.
Judging from Xie Yan's reaction now, you can tell that the chicken soup did not disappoint her hard work. Look, even Xie Yan, who has eaten a lot of good things, is so tempted.
Liu Lanlan was extremely proud of herself.
Xie Yan gave Liu Lanlan a thumbs up and sincerely praised, "Sister-in-law, your cooking is absolutely amazing! I could smell the aroma from far away, it smells so good!"
Liu Lanlan smiled even more smugly, tilted her head slightly, and said proudly, "That's right, this is a family heirloom, passed down to daughters only!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Yan's heart stirred.
If this chicken soup really tastes as delicious as it smells, I might consider opening a shop in the future; the business might be booming.
Xie Yan handed the lunchbox to Liu Lanlan and said, "Sister-in-law, please help me pack this. I'm going to go see Dad."
Liu Lanlan nodded and took the lunchbox, smiling as she said, "Give it to me. Dad's inside; he should be up by now."
Yu Shan did indeed wake up, and when Xie Yan entered, he was sitting on the edge of the bed smoking.
Seeing Xie Yan enter, she raised her eyelids and glanced at Xie Yan indifferently, "Have some breakfast before you go over."
Xie Yan shook his head, "No need, Father, I've already eaten."
"We'll just ride our bikes away later."
Just as he finished speaking, Liu Lanlan came in with a lunchbox. Xie Yan smiled and thanked her, then turned to Yu Shan and said, "Dad, I'm leaving."
Yu Shan nodded, still holding his pipe.
After putting the lunchbox into a bag, Xie Yan took out the keys from his pocket and handed them to Liu Lanlan, saying, "Sister-in-law, remember to feed Heihei at noon and in the evening."
Liu Lanlan nodded with a smile, "Don't worry, it won't go hungry. Even if I forget, there's still Maodan. He takes Heihei very seriously."
Xie Yan smiled and nodded, pushing the cart outside. He waved to Liu Lanlan who was following him, "Don't see me off, sister-in-law, it's very cold outside."
Liu Lanlan didn't really want to send it away. It was a little better inside, at least there was a wall blocking it. It was really cold outside. Following Xie Yan's words, she went into the kitchen.
As Xie Yan stepped out, a cold wind blew in his face. He parked the car, wrapped himself up tightly except for his eyes, and then got into the car to head to the commune.
Although Xie Yan had tried his best to wrap himself up tightly, he couldn't withstand the biting cold wind. When he got out of the car at the hospital, he stumbled down, his whole body frozen stiff.
Especially the hands, which have lost all feeling.
He rubbed his hands vigorously until his fingers could move a little, then bent down to lock his bicycle. With a blank face, he rushed into the ward without looking back.
Right now, he doesn't want anything, he just wants a cup of hot water!
Carrying a chill from his body, Xie Yan pushed open the door to the ward and saw that only his wife was lying on the bed.
Xie Yan was speechless at this moment. The scarf wrapped around his face had long since frozen into ice, and of course, his eyelashes were not spared either.
Yu Yue felt heartbroken seeing him like this, and got up to pour Xie Yan some hot water to warm him up.
Xie Yan quickly reached out to stop her.
He quickly found the thermos and, shivering, poured himself a cup of hot water.
