Chapter 68 Never Exaggerated

On the second day of July, the two daughters and their son-in-law came over, but Gu's mother didn't make dumplings. The main reason was that there were too many people. With several children in the family, how could there be enough dumplings to eat?

Today, we only made two plates of dumplings for the guests, and the rest of us tacitly agreed not to eat them.

Their staple food is boiled corn. The corn grown in the yard has all formed grains, and it is just the right hardness and softness to eat now. It is especially fragrant and delicious.

While cooking, Gu's mother said to Su He, "Xiao He, school starts the day after tomorrow. Take some of this corn to send to your in-laws. It's delicious when it's freshly harvested."

Su He said it was okay.

Team leader Wang is also a wonderful person. He ate a few dumplings during the meal, and when he saw corn being cooked, he said he wanted to eat corn. He hadn't eaten it for several years, so he didn't eat dumplings.

The meal was eaten by Gu's father, Gu Jianhua, Gu's third sister Xue'er and others.

Third Sister Gu saw that Wang Hongxing was eating politely, so she picked up a chicken leg for him. Team Leader Wang did the same and gave it to Xueer.

That’s good. My father found another daughter-in-law because he wanted more people to love his children, and my mother did the same.

Both parties were happy with the meal. Team Leader Wang praised the vegetables grown by Gu's mother for being delicious. Gu's mother was happy again. Before leaving, she gave Team Leader Wang a basket of vegetables and corn.

This is what has been decided for Sister Gu San.

There's no need to hold a wedding banquet or anything, just go whenever you want.

Regarding this, Third Sister Gu wanted to discuss it with Team Leader Wang again. After all, the family needed two more people and there were still many things missing.

Although there is no need to hold a wedding banquet, it is still considered a marriage and the parents should give their daughter something good.

Gu's mother said, "What's the use of it? She has a job and doesn't need anything. I gave her fifty yuan today and let her take thirty yuan."

Father Gu nodded, "Okay."

Su He also discussed this matter with Gu Jianhua, who said, "Wife, it's up to you to decide."

Su He, "Then give me a pair of pillowcases."

It just so happened that she had an extra set from her marriage to Gu Jianhua.

The next day, Third Sister Gu discussed with Team Leader Wang when to go over. Team Leader Wang said that it would be OK to go over right now.

"I have packed up everything at home. I have everything, including the bedding and toiletries for the children to sleep in."

So, feel free to come anytime.

Sister Gu brought her daughter there on the morning of the first day of school. They both took a leave of absence and took the two children to register at school first.

Then I went to clean up the house.

At noon, Team Leader Wang went to pick up the two children for lunch, while Third Sister Gu prepared lunch at home.

I simply fried two dishes, the staple food was cornmeal steamed buns.

While eating, Wang Hongxing couldn't stop praising her, "Mom, your cooking is so delicious. Why didn't my dad marry you earlier?"

Team leader Wang also praised, "Yunlan, where did you learn this skill? It's on par with the chefs in state-owned hotels!"

To be honest, this is the first time that Third Sister Gu has been praised for her delicious cooking and good culinary skills.

She has never been praised either in the Li family or in her own family. It's good enough that they don't belittle her in the Li family. How can they praise her? In her own family, it seems that she has not cooked since she came back and has been doing other things all the time.

She did this often before she got married, but she had never heard her parents praise her.

This was the first time she was praised.

Third Sister Gu has some idea of ​​her cooking skills, not to the level of a chef in a state-owned hotel. She smiled and said, "It's not that exaggerated."

Team leader Wang said, "Come on, try it yourself, it's really delicious."

Then he asked Xue Er, "Girl, tell me, is it delicious?"

Little girl Xueer also said, "Mom, the food you cooked today is delicious."

Sister Gu picked up the chopsticks suspiciously and took a bite. It seemed to taste much better than what she had made before.

What's going on? Is it because she cooked seriously today or because she put too much oil or soy sauce and vinegar?

When I was at the Li family, they sometimes added soy sauce, oil and vinegar, but it didn’t taste that good!

Team leader Wang, "You don't even know how delicious your cooking is. Come sit down and eat."

They took Third Sister Gu to eat. The two children, Hong Xing and Xue'er, were very considerate. One of them held a bowl for Third Sister Gu and the other held chopsticks for her.

The family of four sat down to eat.

They were not lying. The father and son of the Wang family really thought that Third Sister Gu’s cooking was delicious, and Xue’er also thought that her mother’s cooking was better than before.

Third Sister Gu was still wondering if her cooking skills had improved.

Wang Hongxing ate until his belly was round. He said, "Mom and Dad, I want to live at home in the future and not go to school. The food in school is not as delicious as the food you cook."

Sister Gu was very happy that the children liked the food she cooked.

She likes this kind of atmosphere. If her family likes the food she cooks and praises her for its delicious cooking, she will be more motivated.

I've never felt this way before.

She had never been praised before, but she remembered that the day after she married Li Lai Fu, she cooked and the old lady said that her food was just barely edible.

She thought her cooking skills were just that good.

Sister Gu smiled and said, "Okay, whatever you like to eat, Mom will make it for you."

Wang Hongxing said, "I will eat whatever you cook, mom. You can make delicious fried shoe soles. Mom, you don't know why I lived in the school dormitory before, because my dad's cooking was so bad."

"The steamed buns he made were like rocks, so hard that I couldn't even chew them. The dish was too salty."

Team leader Wang was innocent. He scratched his head and said, "I don't know how to make dough, so the steamed buns I made were hard. But they were delicious when they were hot out of the pot."

Wang Hongxing sighed, "The key is that it's not fresh out of the pot. When I get home from school, it's already cold."

"It's cold, hard and irritating to the throat."

"You can only swallow it mouthful by mouthful with boiling water."

Sister Gu laughed and said, "Most men don't know how to cook."

But there are a few exceptions.

For example, her younger brother Gu Jianhua, has been learning from her since he was young and knows how to cook.

It's a perfect complement for her sister-in-law, as she can't cook.

Actually, this is just a rumor. Su He can cook, but her mother and brother told the Gu family that she can't cook and almost burned down the kitchen while cooking at home.

That's true, but that was when she was ten years old.

Now she can cook well. The food is cooked well and tastes good. Cooking is not difficult.

But since Gu's mother was doing it, she didn't interfere and just helped light the fire and cut the vegetables.

For example, after Gu's third sister Xue'er left, she took the twenty dollars and went to find Su He.

"Xiao He, this money is for you."

Su He, "Mom, I have it, you don't have to give it to me."

Mother Gu said, "Your third sister left twenty dollars. Take it. You found her a job. Now she is married with a job. She will definitely have a good life in the future. This is all thanks to you."

The Pei family gave the textile factory job to the third son out of respect for their daughter-in-law.

Hearing this, Su He refused even more, "Mom, it's not appropriate for you to give the third sister's betrothal money to me, your sister-in-law. You two should keep it for yourselves."

How can my sister-in-law ask for a betrothal gift from my aunt?
