Chapter 94 He is nice to me
Lin Xiaotong didn't expect to run into Xiaoxue in the yard, whom she had met in the hard sleeper car on the train.
Xiaoxue also saw Lin Xiaotong, her eyes full of surprise, and walked over and said.
"You live here too? What a coincidence."
The main reason was that they met each other back and forth, so Xiaoxue also had an impression of Lin Xiaotong and Gao Xiulan.
"Yes, I live here, you are from Uncle Qian's family..."
"Oh, I came here to eat with my sister-in-law and the others."
Lin Xiaotong understood that this was Qian Minjie's sister-in-law.
"Sister Xiaoxue, come and have dinner."
Qian Yu called out at the door, Xiaoxue responded and waved to Lin Xiaotong, then went into the house like a free bird.
Lin Xiaotong also went home for dinner. "Mom, is there anyone coming to Uncle Qian's house today?"
"Yes, the eldest daughter of the Qian family, Qian Min, is back with her baby."
After Gao Xiulan brought the dishes to the table, she replied, "Xie Da Jiao, use hot water to boil the dishes and chopsticks."
Lin Xiaotong took the bowl handed to her by Xie Dajiao and went to the kitchen to get some rice.
The three of them sat at the dinner table, eating and chatting.
"Mom, I just saw Xiaoxue. I saw that young couple on the train."
"I saw her this morning when I was washing vegetables. She's the younger sister of Qian Min's husband, Xiao Kai. Her name is Xiao Xue."
Gao Xiulan was stunned when she saw the girl early in the morning.
"Qian Min's husband is from a wealthy family. I guess Xiao Xue is being targeted by him."
"Isn't that the Phoenix Man?"
Lin Xiaotong recalled the conversation she overheard on the train that day. Ayu's family conditions were not very good.
"Really? You're trying to climb up the social ladder. Qian Min and Xiao Xue were high school classmates and had a pretty good relationship. They probably know about this, too."
Although Gao Xiulan knew about it, she couldn't tell Xiao Xue directly. She could only remind Yu Afen or Qian Min privately.
…
The Qian family was very lively at noon today. Qian Baozhu was busy in the kitchen with an apron on his neck, and Yu Afen was helping him.
"Ah Fen, the dishes are ready. I'll cook them right away. Go out and keep Xiao Min company and watch the kids."
Qian Baozhu danced with the big spoon so neatly and efficiently that he asked Yu Afen to go out and rest.
Yu Afen knew that her man felt sorry for her, so she wiped Qian Baozhu's sweat with a towel and went out.
She first brought the cold dishes to the table, went to the coal stove and filled a few bowls of fermented rice wine, then saw Qian Yu pulling Xiao Xue to sit together and eat peach cakes.
"Xiaoxue, Xiaoyu, come and try the rice dumplings made with fermented glutinous rice."
"Thank you, Auntie. I love this."
Xiao Xue took a bowl of fermented rice with osmanthus flowers in it and took a sip. She liked eating sweet things.
Xiao Xue smiled at Yu Afen and continued to sit and chat with Qian Yu.
Yu Afen saw that Qian Min's door was closed and knocked.
"Mom, I just fed the baby."
In the room, Qian Min put the child in the pile of bedding, and Xiao Kai was gently patting the child's back with his hand.
Yu Afen came over to look at her grandson's little face. His eyes were closed and his mouth was moving, like a baby bunny.
"You've taken such good care of this child. I knitted a little hat and shoes for him. I'll bring them back for you when I get back."
When Yu Afen saw her eldest daughter’s rosy complexion, she knew that her in-laws had not treated her unfairly.
Whether a woman is having a comfortable confinement period can be seen from her face.
"Thank you, Mom."
The person who spoke was Xiao Kai, a gentle-looking young man who wore glasses, spoke politely, was a little shy, and had dimples when he smiled with his lips pursed.
"It's time to eat, serve the food!"
Qian Baozhu's shouting and Qian Yu's laughter were heard outside.
"Let's go eat."
The Qian family was having lunch. The food was very good and the aroma of the food wafted into the courtyard.
In the west room, Wu Jiabao was eating the egg and meat dumplings made by his mother, his nose twitching.
In his little head, he was thinking that it would be great if his father was born in Grandpa Qian’s family, so that he could eat delicious food every day.
The Xie family in the east was also having lunch. Gao Xiulan prepared a simple meal of three dishes and a soup for lunch.
"Mom, I'll go weigh a few pounds of mutton tomorrow and we'll make mutton soup."
Lin Xiaotong thought of this while eating.
Originally, when the salary was paid this month, we had agreed to take Gao Xiulan and Xie Dajiao out to a restaurant, but because of Xie Yi's incident, all the salary was used to pay for it.
"Okay, I'll make some more pancakes."
Gao Xiulan also wanted to drink mutton soup, and the big bones with meat were bubbling on the coal stove.
Cut the mutton into thin slices, blanch it in boiling water, and put a few chopsticks of sweet potato vermicelli at the bottom of a large bowl.
Add the cooked lamb slices, a few tablespoons of lamb broth, sprinkle with coriander and serve.
In the middle of winter, mutton bones can be used to make several soups, which can be eaten with baked flatbreads.
Some people also like to tear the pancakes into pieces and soak them in mutton soup. The pancakes are soaked in the mutton soup, and one bite is satisfying.
…
In the evening, several aunts sat together and chatted. Xiao Xue was bored, so she pulled Qian Yu and squeezed in with a small stool.
He opened his mouth wide, ate melon seeds, and talked about the lively things happening in Old Fu's family. He spoke with great passion and even gestures.
There was a circle of aunts surrounding them with their heads raised and their hands busy.
"I heard that Xia Caiyun is now at home picking on Zhao Yunyun every day, and her husband is not home all day."
"What do you think Xia Caiyun is after? Fu Wenlei was just a poor kid before, and he only got into the company thanks to his father-in-law's help."
Jin Qiaofeng also knew some of the inside story because her husband, Chang, had a good relationship with Fu Wenlei at that time.
She really couldn't understand why Xia Caiyun had such a poor eye for choosing men.
"That's right, Xia Caiyun wasn't ugly when she was a girl, and her family was well-off. Why did she insist on hanging herself on Fu Wenlei's tree?"
Diao Yulian said while fiddling with her hair.
"Who knows? I heard from Aunt Cao that Father Xia had introduced a good young man to Xia Caiyun at work."
Zhang Dazui is sharing the news revealed by one of her sisters.
"They both went on blind dates, and then Xia Caiyun met Fu Wenlei and was determined to marry into the Fu family."
Fu Wenlei was penniless at the time. He had five older sisters and he was the only boy. His parents hoped that he would have a bright future.
"You said Fu Wenlei isn't the best looking, and he has parents who are not easy to take care of. If Xia Caiyun hadn't given birth to two boys after marrying him, her life would have been difficult."
After Xia Caiyun married into Fu Wenlei's family, her father, Old Man Xia, provided money, worked, and even involved his daughter.
Fortunately, Xia Caiyun has a strong personality and can calm her mischievous parents-in-law. She has the final say at home thanks to her two boys.
"Maybe she wants him to be nice to her? That's fine, right?"
Xiao Xue, who came over, thought of her and A Yu as she listened, and couldn't help but interrupt.
"Are you stupid, girl? If he can be nice to you, he can be nice to others too!"
"Girl, you wouldn't have found a partner as lustful as Fu Wenlei, would you?"
Jin Qiaofeng looked at Xiao Xue, who was in good condition, and even forgot to eat melon seeds.
"No, no, it's a friend of mine."
"Oh~ tell me more about it."
The other aunts got excited when they heard this. They had heard so much about the Fu family's troubles.
Here comes a new one, not bad.
