Chapter 111 Melon Field Supply Melons
No matter what happens to other families, you have to live your own life as usual.
There is so much meat at home all of a sudden. No matter what else, braised pork must be there for lunch today!
Su He cut up half a pound of pork belly with alternating fat and lean meat, and added a radish, chopped everything into chunks. She said to Teacher Wu, "Let's have braised pork for lunch. Let's add some radish to cut through the greasiness!"
Teacher Wu nodded: "Don't dare let other people hear this. If they don't know, they might think we're tired of eating meat!"
Su He also laughed: "Yeah, that's true! But radish is really good for relieving greasiness. We've been eating roast chicken, braised chicken and duck intestines these past two days. It's a bit greasy, really!"
Teacher Wu also laughed.
Da Mao and Er Mao were playing in the yard with their younger sister. When they heard their mother say she was going to make braised pork, they happily shouted, "We have braised pork to eat!"
Ermao also joined in the fun: "There's braised pork to eat!"
Xiaobao wanted to shout, but was stopped by Su He and Teacher Wu: "Keep your voice down, if others hear us and want to come to our house to eat meat, will you give them any?"
Damao shook his head: "If it's someone like Grandma Yuan who comes to me in exchange for something, I'll give it to her. But if someone comes to me to eat, I won't give it to them!"
Su He nodded: "That's right, Damao, others don't have meat to eat, but we do. Don't tell anyone about it, okay? If you tell them about it and don't give it to them, it will make them feel uncomfortable."
Teacher Wu: "Da Mao, Er Mao, grandma will tell you a story later, and you will understand. When eating meat or other food, you should eat it quietly, unless you want to share it with others. Otherwise, don't let others know."
Su He knew that her mother-in-law had a way, so she stopped caring about the three children. She would teach them slowly anyway, and the children would not be able to remember everything after hearing it once.
For lunch, we have braised pork, steamed rice, soup, and stir-fried vegetables.
For soup, she made seaweed, shrimp and egg soup, and for vegetables, she made stir-fried radish with vinegar, which also whetted the children's appetite.
Teacher Wu makes lunch with her. The three children, especially Xiaobao who is almost two years old, likes to play behind his older brothers the most. Now he gradually doesn't need anyone to follow him all the time. Especially Da Mao has become more sensible and knows how to take care of his younger siblings.
Before he finished lunch, he heard a knock on the door. A guest had arrived. Su He went out to open the door and see who it was.
The people who came were not rare guests. They were two boys from Zhou Linfang's family, Ma Xing and Ma Hao.
Su He asked the two brothers, "Ma Xing and Ma Hao are here? Have you eaten yet?"
The two brothers said, "Auntie, we've finished our meal. We heard Damao has some picture books, and we'd like to read them together. Is that okay?"
Children who love reading are always charming. Su He heard the two children say this and hurriedly asked them to come in: "You two go to the west wing to play first. After Da Mao and Er Mao finish their meal, I will read the comic books with you two."
Ma Xing thought for a moment and said, "Auntie, let's just play in the yard. We'll wait for Damao for a while."
Su He's impression of the two children deepened. She'd only known Zhou Linfang and the original owner had a good relationship, but she hadn't expected them to be so well-educated and so tactful. Their owner had something else to do, so they refused to go play in the room. "Great! Big Mao and Second Mao, you can play with these two children from now on."
When Da Mao and Er Mao heard their friends coming to play with them, they ate their food desperately.
Teacher Wu: "Eat slowly. If you eat too fast, your stomach will hurt, and then you won't be able to have fun later, right?"
Damao ran out and greeted the two Ma brothers: "I'll be done eating soon, wait for me."
