Chapter 126 Setting a Table

Lu Weiguo glanced at his wife, whose eyes were slightly red, and turned to ask his second uncle for the hoe in his hand, "Second uncle, let me help you for a while."

Before Lu's second uncle could react, the hoe in his hand was taken away by Lu Weiguo.

Lu Weiguo didn't know how to comfort his wife at this time, so he could only stay here for a while so that she could see her parents more.

But the two of them standing here were too conspicuous, so he simply asked his second uncle to take a rest and he would help for a while.

He asked Shi Tingyu to rest on the ridge of the field in the west, which was closer to the land of Shi's parents.

Uncle Lu reacted, and he hurried to get the hoe back, "You have never worked in the fields, how can you do it? Give me the hoe."

Lu Weiguo squeezed his eyes at Uncle Lu, "Who said I can't do it? I was also a good hand in the fields before I joined the army."

Uncle Lu frowned, "What's wrong with your eyes? Did a bug get into them?"

He thought to himself that it shouldn't be like that, there aren't many small flying insects in this winter.

Lu Weiguo couldn't help but twitch his mouth, he glanced at Shi's father and mother obscurely, and Uncle Lu finally understood at this time.

He muttered, "You are the only one who has a lot of thoughts."

Shi Tingyu wanted to spend more time with his parents, even if he could only accompany them from a distance.

But everyone in the field was working hard, and it seemed inappropriate for her to stand there, so she bent down and picked up the stones and rubble from the field and carried them out.

Uncle Lu saw this and quickly said, "Weiguo's wife, you just watch there."

But Shi Tingyu didn't listen, and continued to do the simple work she could do now.

Uncle Lu saw this and had no choice.

But it had been more than half an hour, and Lu Weiguo was still turning the ground there, so Uncle Lu couldn't sit still anymore.

He walked to Lu Weiguo's side with a firm step and took the hoe back without saying a word.

"Okay, take your wife back quickly, don't let her freeze anymore."

Uncle Lu lowered his voice and said, "You two can't rest easy here, they have already looked over here several times."

Lu Weiguo looked to the west, and sure enough, he saw Shi's father and mother glancing over from time to time.

Looking at his wife holding the dirt in her hand, he felt both distressed and amused.

He didn't argue with Uncle Lu anymore, and walked towards Shi Tingyu.

He helped her get the dirt in her hand to the edge of the field, and Lu Weiguo patted the dirt on her hands, feeling the cold temperature on her hands, and hurried to take her back.

"Let's go back. Your parents won't be at ease with you here."

Shi Tingyu's gaze returned to his father and mother again. Just then, his mother looked over and waved at the two of them under the shield of his father.

This was a move to chase people away.

Finally, Shi Tingyu nodded at her to show that he understood.

Lu Weiguo said hello to his second uncle who was still in the field and took Shi Tingyu back.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Lu's second aunt came back from work first.

Today, Lu Weiguo came back with his wife, and everyone was going to have dinner together in the evening, so she had to prepare in advance.

According to custom, no matter how Lu Weiguo and Shi Tingyu got married, the family would always have a meal together, just as a wine ceremony.

It is still a special period and there is no wedding ceremony. It is good to have a table of wine.

It is to introduce the new daughter-in-law to the relatives.

The brigade had pigs coming out of the pen two days ago. The pigs were just slaughtered and the pork was divided. There is no shortage of meat.

When Aunt Lu was cleaning up, Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu came over. They were carrying fish and home-brewed sorghum wine, as well as some meat they had received.

Among the relatives of the Lu family, there is still an uncle of Grandpa Lu, who is considered to have the largest share of the family, followed by Grandpa Lu and his brothers.

It’s just that Grandpa Lu’s wife passed away early, and now only he and his son’s family are left.

Aunt Lu calculated that there was one uncle, the child's grandfather and grandmother, the eldest uncle's family of four, their family plus the little grandson, seven people, and finally Weiguo and his wife, a total of sixteen people.

Two tables would be enough.

Nowadays, cooking is not about fancy, but about quantity.

Just make five dishes, one pot of each dish.

Grandpa Lu and his family brought silver carp, she weighed it with her hand, it was almost more than ten pounds, which was enough.

The old couple discussed the dinner with Aunt Lu.

They ordered cabbage, pork and vermicelli stewed with braised fish, and killed two chickens and potatoes to stew. There was also a stir-fried lettuce at home, and a fish head and tofu soup, and it was complete.

For the staple food, a few steamed buns were enough, and when the potatoes and chicken were baked, some cornmeal cakes were placed on the edge of the pot.

Aunt Lu had told Lu Weiguo and the others about having dinner together in the evening, so when they heard the noise, Lu Weiguo and Shi Tingyu also went to help.

Aunt Lu saw the two of them and waved her hand quickly, "It's just a few dishes, your grandpa and I can take care of it."

Lu Weiguo couldn't let Aunt Lu and the two old people do everything, so he also helped to kill the chicken, scrape the potatoes, and do some things within his ability.

Shi Tingyu also wanted to help, but Aunt Lu refused no matter what, saying, "You are a new daughter-in-law, why do you have to do anything?"

Lu Weiguo was afraid that she would be bored and embarrassed staying here, so he pulled her to sit next to him, watching him scrape potatoes, and occasionally telling her about the people in his family.

When it was time to steam the steamed buns, Shi Tingyu still started.

"Aunt Lu, I will just sit here and help with the steamed bun making agent, just for fun." Aunt

Lu looked around and realized that they were all busy, and it seemed a bit awkward to leave Weiguo's wife alone, so she smiled and nodded.

Shi Tingyu has very skillful hands and is also a good hand at making steamed buns.

The steamed buns she rolled out are round and beautiful.

The stove at Uncle Lu's house was reserved for cooking, and the task of steaming steamed buns was finally assigned to Lu Weiguo's kitchen.

After dark, workers came back from work one after another, and Uncle Lu's house became lively.

Everyone was busy after returning, and helped to prepare the dishes.

The two daughters-in-law of Lu's second uncle, the eldest daughter-in-law works in the logistics department of the police station, and the second daughter-in-law is a primary school teacher in the brigade.

They were all very enthusiastic when they saw Shi Tingyu, especially the eldest daughter-in-law Shen Cuicui. It is estimated that she only met gay men in the police station, and she was also very cheerful. Seeing Shi Tingyu's delicate skin, she touched her little hand twice.

"Second cousin's hand is really soft." Chen Li, the second daughter-in-law of the second uncle's family, couldn't help but chuckle when she saw it
