As soon as An Dashan reached the foot of the mountain, he saw Uncle Gao coming down the mountain carrying two bundles of firewood. An Dashan quickly took a bundle of firewood and said, "Xiaofei, go home and have dinner. Ningning has already prepared dinner."
Gao Fei asked with a smile: "How is my sister? Am I going to be an uncle again?"
An Dashan chuckled and said, "Yes, the doctor said your sister has been pregnant for more than a month."
Gao Fei said happily after hearing this, "That's great." The two of them returned home with silly smiles on their faces, and as soon as they entered the yard, they smelled a fragrant aroma.
The two put the firewood into the woodshed, then Gao Fei walked into the kitchen and said, "Ningning, what delicious food are you making? It smells so good!"
An Ning lifted the lid of the pot and said, "How are the stewed ribs and meat? Are they appetizing?"
Gao Fei nodded fiercely and said, "Yeah, it's quite appetizing."
An Ning closed the pot and said, "Uncle, go wash your hands. I'll cook another dish and then we'll eat."
Gao Fei said: "Okay, I'll go wash my hands now."
An Ning was afraid that Gao couldn't eat meat, so she stir-fried some cabbage. After the cabbage was done, An Ning, with the help of Gao Fei, brought the food to the table. Everyone sat down at the table spontaneously without An Ning calling out.
Gao Fei and Xiao Shitou are indeed father and son. They eat in the same way, which makes An Ning laugh. An Ning's worries are indeed correct. Gao Shi feels sick when she smells the meat, so she takes a bowl of rice and a plate of cabbage back to her room to eat.
Little Stone asked curiously, "Grandma, why doesn't Auntie eat meat? This meat is so delicious."
Wang smiled and said, "Your aunt is pregnant with my little brother, so she can't eat meat now."
Little Stone was even more confused and asked, "Little brother doesn't like to eat meat?"
Wang found that she couldn't explain it clearly, so she stopped explaining and gave him a piece of meat, saying, "Eat it quickly, or your father will eat it all."
Gao Fei, who was shot innocently, blinked his eyes and did not dare to ruin his mother's plan.
After hearing what his grandmother said, Little Shitou hurried to eat the meat in the bowl, fearing that his father would eat it all.
An Ning looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but laugh. Children are so easy to fool!
After a happy dinner, An Ning and Wang went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes, while An Dashan and Gao Fei talked in the main room.
After An Ning and Gao had cleared the dishes, they sat in the main room and talked. Wang then said, "Da Shan, you guys are back too. We'll be back tomorrow."
An Dashan said, "Mom, please stay a few more days. Yingniang is pregnant and needs someone at home."
Wang shook her head and said, "I think Daya can help with everything. I am of no use here. I'd better go home."
Seeing Wang was so determined, An Dashan did not try to persuade her anymore and said, "Okay, if that's the case, I'll pay Big Brother and Xiao Fei for these days' wages."
When Uncle Gao came back, he returned the purse that An Dashan had given him to An Dashan. An Dashan knew his uncle's temper, so he did not refuse and accepted it directly.
Wang nodded and said, "Since it has been agreed upon in advance, I will not say anything else. It will be forty-nine days in total, and each of them will be paid two thousand four hundred and fifty coins." After that, she looked at An Dashan and said, "Dashan, do you think my calculation is correct?"
An Dashan nodded and said, "Mother's calculation is correct. Don't give me 2,450 coins. Just give me 2,500 coins to make it an even number."
After hearing what An Dashan said, Wang nodded and said, "Okay, you can handle your brothers' affairs as you wish."
An Dashan took out two pieces of silver and a string of copper coins from his purse, handed them to Wang, and said, "Mother, go back and divide them between Big Brother and Xiaofei."
Wang took the silver and said, "Well, it's getting late. We've been busy all day and we're all tired. Go and have a rest!"
An Dashan nodded and said, "Well, Mom, you should go and have a rest too!" After saying that, everyone went back to rest.
The next morning, An Ning got up early to cook. As soon as An Ning entered the kitchen and lit the fire, Gao came in. An Ning saw Gao and said, "Mom, go back and have a rest. I'll cook from now on!"
Gao shook her head and said, "I'm not that delicate. When I was pregnant with your brother and you, I still cooked and worked in the fields."
An Ning shook her head and said, "Mom, things are different now than before. You are older now and your energy is definitely not as good as before. We should be careful."
Gao nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work during this period."
An Ning shook her head and said, "It's just three meals a day, it's not tiring." Gao obediently walked out of the kitchen.
Seeing Gao leave the kitchen, An Ning continued to cook. She washed the rice first. Just then the water in the pot was boiling. An Ning put the rice in the pot and slowly boiled it over low heat. Then she scooped some noodles, beat a few eggs, and started to make egg pancakes in another pot. When the egg pancakes were finished, the rice porridge in the pot was also cooked.
When An Ning brought the rice porridge into the main room, she found that the others had also washed up and were talking in the main room. An Ning put the porcelain basin of rice porridge on the table, and Wang stood up to help pour it into the bowl.
An Ning watched Wang help serve the rice porridge, then turned to the kitchen to bring up the egg pancakes and pickles. The family sat around the table and started to eat breakfast. There was no strong smell today, so Gao didn't vomit. She ate two egg pancakes and drank a bowl of rice porridge. Wang and An Ning were very happy to see this.
