Su Yan understood that the leader was impressed by the eldest brother's talent, so he introduced his brother to his daughter for tutoring and deliberately let them interact, but the leader's wife disliked the eldest brother's family background.
The Su family's ancestors were from the countryside. Her grandfather was a barefoot doctor, and her father joined the army at the age of sixteen. With his medical skills, he gradually became the director of surgery in the military hospital.
But in the eyes of the leader's wife, their Su family is just a peasant family. They don't have a house in the city and live in a family compound close to the countryside. How could she be willing to marry her youngest daughter to such a man?
In Mrs. Deng's eyes, Su Ze was marrying above her station. In fact, her daughter had no ability at all. By marrying above her station, what else did Deng Tingting have besides a good father?
My eldest brother might have offended his boss because of her and ruined his own marriage.
Su Yan knew that the Deng family was not a good match. It was a rare opportunity for her elder brother to fall in love, but the marriage fell through because of her. It would be a lie to say that she didn't feel guilty.
"Brother, do you like the leader's daughter?"
"Yan Yan, it's all in the past. Our two families were never a good match. Even if we really got married, maybe Madam Deng would ask me to marry into their family."
"Don't they have a son?"
"She has three daughters and one son. Her only son was transferred to Hai City. Deng Tingting is their youngest daughter. In her eyes, her daughters are the most important.
This is all my fault. My boss asked me to give her extra lessons, but I should have refused at the time, otherwise none of this would have happened."
"Brother, trust me. You will definitely find a virtuous and beautiful wife. By the way, how did Deng Lingling do on the exam?"
"I didn't pass the exam. I was still more than ten points short of the junior college entrance exam, but it was still a few dozen points higher than last year."
Su Yan smiled. That's great! Deng Tingting couldn't even get into junior college, so her father's plan to get her a good job wouldn't be justified, right? Unless she had to buy a job.
Is Mrs. Deng's brain filled with shit? Her eldest brother is a college student, handsome and can speak several foreign languages, but she doesn't even look down on talented students. What kind of son-in-law does she want?
A promising young man with power, wealth, and good looks? Would such a noble family kid be interested in her daughter?
"It's said that today, you can ignore me; tomorrow, you won't be able to reach me. Brother, Deng Tingting is not worthy of you. My future sister-in-law will definitely be a thousand times better than Deng Tingting."
"Okay, don't worry about me. I promise to bring you a sister-in-law before the New Year. Lu Ting, you still have to keep an eye on my sister to make sure those people don't get away.
Without the Su family's approval, how could that He guy have such courage? "
"Well, I'll go to the Public Security Bureau later to see how their case is progressing."
"Then I'll go back."
"Brother, you haven't eaten at my house before, why don't you eat first?"
"No, I'm going to the Education Bureau to see if that He guy has been arrested."
Even after being married for so long, my eldest and second brothers have never had a meal at their house, so they must have a few tables of banquets to celebrate the birth of the baby.
Su Ze stood up to leave. Seeing that she couldn't keep him, Su Yan went back to her room and brought him a big bag of grapes and a bag of pomegranates.
After sending Su Ze away, Lu Ting stared at Su Yan, "Yan Yan, I've already taken half a day off today, so I might as well go to the Public Security Bureau now."
"Okay, slow down and don't get into conflict with anyone."
"Just rest at home and don't think too much. Everything will be fine."
Lu Ting also left. Su Yan closed the door and entered the space. She picked some vegetables from the ground and threw them into the cherry shed to feed the chickens and ducks.
After feeding the chickens and ducks, she planned to go to the mountain to feed the pigs, cattle and sheep in the pen, when suddenly a big gray rabbit jumped to her feet.
I haven't taken care of the little one for a few months, and I didn't expect there would be so many rabbits running around the mountain. I'll wait a little longer, until she gives birth, and then kill a few more rabbits at a time, including the spicy rabbit heads and spicy rabbit pieces.
Suddenly I remembered that it rained several times in a row in this space, and I wondered if there were any mushrooms to pick up on the other barren mountain.
The workers who used to work for her told her that the barren mountain she contracted, which had not yet been cultivated, had a lot of wild mushrooms on it during this season. Although the varieties were not as many as those in Yunnan, there were still many edible mushrooms.
There was a pine forest to the west of the barren mountain, and every year all kinds of mushrooms grew under the pine trees. With nothing to do, Su Yan went to the pine forest with her empty backpack.
She walked to a pine tree and used a small rake to dig away the pine needles. There was nothing underneath. She rakes around a few times and finds three pine fungi.
Not bad, I finally got something.
She took a small rake and rake left and right for more than two hours, rake out a lot of pine mushrooms, broom mushrooms, matsutake mushrooms, chicken mushrooms, red mushrooms, blue-headed mushrooms...
When one backpack is full, she will switch to another. There are so many wild mushrooms that she will not be able to finish them even if she eats them for a week. Su Yan plans to wash them, dry them and eat them in winter.
In fact, it would be better to take them outside to dry, but she was worried that the neighbors would come back and ask her where these mushrooms came from.
Although there were mushrooms on the mountains not far from their troops, there were very few edible species and many were poisonous, so no one dared to pick them casually.
Usually they would pick some shiitake mushrooms, morels, wood ear mushrooms and ground vegetables. They would not dare to pick those that they did not recognize even if they were edible.
Su Yan spent the whole morning processing mushrooms in the space. By the time she finished cleaning them and sending them into the drying room, it was already 11:50.
Seeing that Lu Ting had not returned yet, he had no choice but to go to the shed and catch a chicken to kill it. He boiled water to pluck the chicken's feathers, cut off the chicken wings, chicken legs and chicken feet and put them in the refrigerator to freeze. It would be great whether he used it for barbecue, cola chicken wings or spicy and sour chicken feet.
She removed the chicken breast and cut it into thin slices for later use. She then chopped the chicken skeleton into pieces and put them in the pot to make soup, waiting for Lu Ting to come back.
When Lu Ting came back and saw his wife was not there, he opened the door and called out, "Yan Yan, I'm back."
Su Yan heard Lu Ting's call and immediately left the space. "Lu Ting, you're back. I didn't cook today. How about we have chicken soup and mushroom hotpot for lunch?"
"Where did the mushrooms come from?"
"I picked them from the mountains. Don't worry, they are all edible mushrooms. You won't get poisoned."
Su Yan brought Lu Ting into the space. Lu Ting looked at the table full of mushrooms and was a little afraid to move.
"Are these mushrooms really edible? They're not poisonous, are they? Especially the red ones."
"This one with a red cap and a red stem is called a red mushroom. The ones with a red cap and a white stem are poisonous. This one is called a matsutake mushroom, that one is called a broom mushroom, and this one with a long stem and unopened buds is called a chicken mushroom..."
Su Yan took the steamed chicken breast away and poured plates of fresh mushrooms into the pot, introducing what kind of mushrooms they were each time she poured one.
"I didn't expect Yanyan to know so many mushrooms. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known they were edible."
"These are what my grandfather taught me."
