This news is undoubtedly great news for the Bao family.
"Really? That's great."
Bao Zhiguo was also very happy.
In the later stages of his illness, his quality of life was not high. He could not eat or lie down, and even breathing was difficult. If he lived like this, he would rather die early, free himself, and let his family suffer less.
Who would want to die when they can live a good life?
Now his condition is under control, he eats and drinks normally, and he is a good man. Bao Zhiguo is satisfied. Although he has to drink two bowls of bitter medicine soup every day, it does not affect other things.
"By the way, Xiao Jiang, can I do some work? I mean work in the fields."
Bao Zhiguo said with a bitter face, "I have been a rural kid since I was young, and have been working in the fields all my life. I feel bad that I am not allowed to work in the fields out of the blue."
Li Caiying glared at him and said, "Don't be so cocky after just two days of being healthy and not take your physique seriously."
Jiang Yan waved her hand, "Aunt, some exercise is good for uncle's health. As long as he takes his medicine well, he will have no problem living a normal life. But uncle, you have to work in moderation. During the double harvest season, spring plowing and autumn harvest, it's time to work hard. You can't go out to show off, otherwise my efforts will be wasted. Usually, just plant a vegetable garden and raise fish."
"Okay!" The doctor said so, what else could he say.
Li Caiying was delighted and quickly prepared to cook.
"Big sister, I'm a few years older than you, so I'm just calling you big sister."
Ning Yu has a good personality. She comes from a good family and marries a good man, but she never bullies others and never thinks she is superior to others.
"What are you talking about? Our two families are destined to be together. There's nothing wrong with us being relatives. You should just call me sister."
These few words made Li Caiying feel warm inside.
"Okay, you guys sit down first, I'll go get the food ready, and we'll eat in a bit."
Soon Chang Li came back, followed by her two good children, Da Er and Xiao Bao.
Jiang Yan reminisced with his friends and quickly introduced it to everyone again.
This time, it was Jiang Baitao and Weng Shuxu's turn to give Xiaobao a red envelope, but Bao Shengli refused to take it. This time, it was their turn to use the excuse of a meeting gift.
"This is for the child, not for you. Besides, I didn't say much. Take it."
Bao Shengli had no choice but to let Xiaobao accept it, "Hurry, thank you..."
He hesitated for a moment, "From the perspective of seniority, should I call him great uncle?"
"You can call me anything." Jiang Baitao didn't care.
Xiaobao was still very polite and quickly thanked the two elders.
Sometimes fate is so wonderful. Jiang Yan saved Xiaobao on the first day he went to the countryside, which led to all the things that happened later.
Cheng Li was helping Li Caiying with cooking. Jiang Yan also wanted to help out, but was pushed out by the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. "We don't need you. The second son and his family will be back soon. You should take a rest. There's no point in having guests come to our house."
"What kind of guest am I?"
Jiang Yan insisted on helping, and the two couldn't stop her, so they just let her go.
Bao Tielu was busy running around, carrying firewood, fetching water, and washing vegetables in an excellent manner.
It was almost dark when Bao Yuanchao came back alone.
Originally, I wanted the couple to come back together, let his wife help out, get together and show up, which would be considered politeness.
But Bao Yuanchao came back alone, and his face looked not very good. When Li Caiying saw this, she knew that the couple had a conflict. The second son's wife was very cunning and she definitely didn't want to come back to support the educated youth Xiao Jiang, and she was also afraid to work.
You really can't tell the difference between the important and the unimportant.
He married two daughters-in-law, Su Qu and Chen Juxiang, each one is more cunning than the other. The Chang Zhiqing, whom the eldest son married for his second marriage, is quite good, but I don't know how long the second son and Chen Juxiang can get along.
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became. The old lady chopped the meat with a bang, which made Bao Yuanchao tremble in his heart.
Li Caiying certainly couldn't say anything in front of the Jiang family, but her mother was an expert at settling scores later, and who knew how she would deal with him after the guests left.
Bao Yuanchao sighed helplessly and his hands moved more quickly. If he had known that marriage was so troublesome, he would not have gotten married. It would have been much better to be a bachelor.
Li Caiying guessed correctly, Chen Juxiang did it on purpose. Who made Jiang Yan give her the cold shoulder and scare her last time?
She only blamed Jiang Yan for this and that, completely forgetting that she was the one who started the trouble in the first place.
If you don’t want to come, then don’t come. Jiang Yan doesn’t care. She is doing it for the sake of Bao Zhiguo and Li Caiying’s face.
Soon, dinner was ready.
There is a table on the kang and another table on the ground.
The dinner was very rich, with chicken, duck, fish, fresh vegetables, mushrooms, black fungus, and homemade dried beans. In short, all the good things that could be found were served on the table.
In Northeast China, dumplings are indispensable when entertaining guests for dinner, and there are only two types of standard fillings for dumplings.
Pork and sauerkraut, pork and cabbage.
Bao Zhiguo took out his treasured wine, but unfortunately he couldn't drink it, so he could only ask the second and third sons to accompany Si Lu and the Jiang family.
"Brother Bao hasn't come back yet?"
"Their unit is busy recently and he is on duty." In fact, Bao Zhiguo couldn't come back because of a case.
Chang Li did not take Xiaobao to the town. She had already made an agreement with the neighbors to let him stay there for one night. Tomorrow Xiaobao would go to his great-grandmother's house for a few days, and Chang Li would stay in the old house to help.
"That's perfect. I'll get the medicine tomorrow and visit him in town."
"Okay, let's eat well and forget about him for now."
Li Caiying was afraid that the food she cooked would not suit their taste. "My cooking skills are just so-so. My cooking is not as sophisticated as that in the city. Please don't complain."
"That's great. We can't buy these mushrooms in the city. It's great to pick them and dry them ourselves."
"That's right." Li Yuejin is also a down-to-earth person. "Let's not be polite. Your cooking skills can catch up with those of the chefs in the restaurant."
Everyone ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was quite good.
The two little guys ate dumplings and some chicken soup, and fell asleep on the kang without anyone coaxing them.
Li Caiying was very jealous when she saw this, she just likes children.
"So, you are not in the army now?"
Bao Zhiguo felt it was a pity. If a regiment commander in his twenties had stayed in the army, he would have had a bright future.
I really don’t know what the Si family is thinking.
"Well, I'm in the confidentiality department now, doing similar work to Brother Bao. Anyway, no matter where I am, I'm serving the people."
"Yes, yes, yes." Bao Zhiguo nodded continuously, "You are different from others. You can do anything well."
He was not the only one who came to see Xiao Jiang, but it was true and not everyone could compare to him.
"Uncle, you put me under a lot of psychological pressure."
"I'm not talking nonsense. Xiao Jiang has very high standards. If you were not good, would she marry you?"
What was that person's name back then?
Song...
Song Zhe?
When he came to see the educated youth Xiao Jiang, the educated youth Xiao Jiang didn't smile at all.
