Fan Zhongming used to think that there was nothing wrong with his mother coming to live with him. She could help him take care of his children, and he could also show filial piety to her. What a wonderful thing.
It was only after Li Shuiqin caused such a commotion that he realized how serious the matter was.
Now the three of them eat separately from him, and all three of his meals are prepared by Aunt Ma.
Aunt Ma was frugal all her life and was reluctant to spend money on food. She cooked without oil and ate only old vegetable dumplings.
They have physical training every day, which is very physically demanding, and he gets hungry halfway through training.
Now he would rather eat in the cafeteria than go home for dinner.
What annoyed him the most was that these two people quarreled every time they met. Their family is now famous in the army.
When his comrades saw him, they all advised him to live a good life with Li Shuiqin, and not to give all the allowance to his mother, but to leave some for his own family.
Fan Zhongming felt very embarrassed that everyone outside knew about his family's troubles.
"Mom, please keep your voice down. People outside might hear you."
"Why am I whispering? If she doesn't respect her mother-in-law, she should let outsiders know.
If a daughter-in-law like this lived in our countryside, she would be beaten with a big stick and whipped with a broom.
You've spoiled her too much, that's why she dares to poop and pee on our heads like this."
She spoke louder and louder, as if she was afraid that her neighbors couldn't hear her.
Seeing that she was still so stubborn, Fan Zhongming was angry and annoyed. "Okay, go ahead and make a scene. Go to the army and let our leaders know. That'll make you happy."
Although Aunt Ma doesn't have much knowledge, she is not a confused person.
Fan Zhongming is the most promising one in the family, and what she cares about most is his future.
"This is our family matter. Why does your leader care about these things?"
"You guys keep making trouble every day, how can the leader have a good impression of me?
I can't even handle my own family affairs, so how can he trust me to manage my soldiers?
You all should calm down a bit and stop causing trouble for me every day."
Aunt Ma was not convinced. "Why did I cause you trouble? You can't be so heartless when you speak..."
Seeing that Aunt Ma was about to resort to her old tricks again, Fan Zhongming said impatiently, "I'm going to take a shower first. I've been busy all day and you won't even let me rest when I get home."
Aunt Ma watched Fan Zhongming walk into the room angrily, and her words got stuck in her throat.
Why did she feel that her son had changed?
He would never treat himself like this before.
Shen Anyui ran home carrying two bags of candy. Seeing her so happy, Shen Anyian asked her, "What did you buy that makes you so happy?"
Shen Anyui raised the bag in his hand and said, "Second Brother Ye bought me some candy."
Shen An Nian pretended to be surprised and asked, "You are willing to take his things, so you don't hate him anymore?"
Shen Anyui pursed his lips, "Since he's trying to please me so much, I can stop hating him."
"Hey, two bags of candy in exchange for your not being annoying?"
"It's good enough that I don't hate him."
Shen An Nian looked at the candy in her hand and said, "I'll keep your candy for you. Eat two a day from now on. Eating too much will damage your teeth."
"Sister, I brush my teeth well, so I don't get cavities."
"Then I have to put it away too."
Despite Shen Anyui's objection, Shen Annian put her candy in the cabinet.
Although Shen Anyui is very sensible, she is still a child, and children have no resistance to snacks.
Shen Anyui was not angry when her candies were taken away, because they would eventually end up in her stomach anyway.
Shen Annian went to the kitchen to make cakes. Ye Wenfeng and the others would be going back tomorrow, and she wanted to make some hawthorn cakes for them to take back.
There were no fresh hawthorns at this time of year, but Qin's mother brought over a lot of dried hawthorns, which she had already boiled. The sour smell wafted out of the kitchen.
Shen Anyui walked in smelling the scent, "Sister, what are you doing?"
"I want to make some hawthorn cake."
"Great, I can eat cakes again."
Shen Annian mashed the cooked hawthorn into hawthorn paste, added sugar and flour, mixed with honey, pinched it into a flower shape, and steamed it in a pot for twenty minutes.
When it came out of the pot, she tried the taste. It was sweet but not greasy, mixed with a hint of sourness, and very appetizing.
She picked up a piece and fed it to Shen Anyui's mouth, "Try it."
Shen Anyui opened his mouth and took a bite, "It's delicious, sister, the food you make is really delicious."
Qin Zhengqi walked in from outside, "What's so delicious?"
Shen Annian: "I made some hawthorn cakes and plan to bring them back to Brother Ye tomorrow."
Qin Zhengqi knew what Shen Annian was thinking. People brought so many things with them, and it would be unreasonable for them not to prepare gifts in return.
"good."
"Has the person been sent over?"
"Yes, they both went there with Lao Zhou."
Zhou Yin took advantage of the alcohol and kept asking about the relationship between the two and Shen An Nian. He guessed that this matter could not be kept secret.
"That's good."
Shen An Nian steamed another tray, prepared everything, and then went to take a shower and rest.
She planned to buy two chickens from the chicken farm and bring them to Ye Wenfeng and the others.
Although the largest chicken on the farm now weighs only three pounds, it is still enough to be used as a gift.
The next day she told Wang Guixiang to keep the two largest chickens in the chicken farm for her.
The chicken farm has regulations and employees have benefits. There is a limit of two chickens purchased from the chicken farm each month, but the chickens are still small and no one is willing to buy them yet.
Wang Guixiang was surprised when she heard her order. "Why do you suddenly want to buy chicken?"
"Take it as a return gift."
"Okay, I'll definitely pick out two of the biggest and fattest ones for you."
