The last time Lu Ting and his friends went to Jinshi, they bought a box of vodka for his father and father-in-law, each box containing six bottles.
The vodka they bought was 50 or 60 degrees, which most people couldn't drink.
Who were Lu Fengnian and Lu Ting? They were grown men who could each drink two kilograms of baijiu, so two glasses of vodka were no problem.
Lu Jin was coaxed by his father to learn to drink, and now he can drink half a glass of white wine, but he still doesn't dare to drink such a high-proof vodka.
I don’t know if it was because the alcohol content was too high, or because Lu Fengnian hadn’t been so happy in a long time, but he actually said he wanted to toast Su Yan.
"Xiao Yan, we are able to eat so much delicious meat today because of you.
These braised dishes are absolutely amazing, even better than those made in state-owned restaurants. Come, let me toast you! Thank you, Dad."
Su Yan hesitated whether to take a sip from Lu Ting's cup, but Lu Ting blocked her way and held up the glass. "Dad, Yanyan doesn't drink, so let me drink with you!"
Lu Fengnian looked at Lu Ting, "You kid, you'll be 24 next year, 25 in lunar age. When will you let me be your grandfather? Are you not capable enough? If not, ask your mother to take you to see a doctor. If you have any disease, early detection and early treatment are the best!"
Lu Ting's face changed, and he gritted his teeth. "I'm not angry! I'm not angry!" This is his father. If it were anyone else, he would have wanted to swing a bottle at him.
What's wrong with him? He's very good at it, making his wife cry and beg for mercy every night.
Su Yan saw Lu Ting's dark face and was trying to cover her mouth with her hands to laugh. Then she saw her mother-in-law also staring at Lu Ting seriously. She knew that they really had misunderstood. She kicked Lu Ting under the table and whispered, "Hurry up and explain yourself."
Lu Ting suddenly thought of something and gave Su Yan an ambiguous look. He explained seriously, "Mom, we already agreed that Yanyan won't have a baby until she's 20. Why are you joining Dad in making trouble again?"
Hua Min patted her forehead. Seeing how bad her memory was, she said, "It's good to have a baby at the age of 20. Yanyan can start preparing for pregnancy next winter.
While we are still young, we can still help you take care of your children. Go ahead and have more children. I will help you take care of your children even if I have to quit my job."
After Hua Min finished speaking, she looked at Su Yan with a smile, and Su Yan had no choice but to smile back at her.
She was thinking, if she got into college next year, wouldn't she have to go to school with a bulging belly?
It takes several years to go to college. If she doesn't have children for a few years, not only her parents-in-law will be anxious, but her own parents will be anxious too, right?
Su Yan was absentmindedly thinking about these problems. Whether she had a child or not, there were a lot of problems waiting for her. She was so distressed. Being a woman was so difficult!
It started snowing the day after the Little New Year. Su Yan was too cold to get out of bed, so she simply hid in her space to weave towels, scarves, and hats.
After knitting her own scarf, Su Yan also knitted a navy blue scarf for Lu Ting.
As soon as the snow fell, the soil froze, and the land reclamation came to a halt. By the end of the year, Lu Ting was busy with meetings during the day and writing reports at home at night.
Today he came into the house again, covered in snow and carrying a big bag of meat in his hand.
"Yan Yan, look what I brought back?"
"Did you buy meat? Could it be mutton?"
"It's not mutton, it's venison. Do you want to roast it or cook it in a hot pot?"
Su Yan has been very lazy these days and is too lazy to cook. Didn’t she make a lot of braised food before?
They had a whole meal of pig intestine noodles at noon, and a whole meal of pig intestine noodles again at night. The next day, they had either pork ribs noodles or braised pork noodles. The two of them ate noodles for three consecutive days.
There were noodles to eat and various braised meats to serve as toppings. Lu Ting didn't mind, but Su Yan was a little annoyed.
She said she wanted to eat barbecue, then said she wanted to eat hot pot. Lu Ting then found a way to ask his friends to get some wild venison.
"There are several pounds of venison here, right? Let's grill half and make hot pot with the other half."
Anyway, there are hot pot stoves and grills in the space, both electric and charcoal ones. The electric ones are inconvenient to take out, so Su Yan took out the charcoal hot pot stove and barbecue tray, and also took out a box of smokeless charcoal.
After Lu Ting started the fire, he cut the venison into thin slices and put it in a large bowl.
Su Yan felt that eating venison alone was too monotonous, so she cut two more red sausages and used a small winnowing basket to fill it with mixed vegetables, including one or two pounds of cabbage, spinach, coriander, and lettuce.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Lu Jin was standing at the door holding a hard grass carp.
"Brother, sister-in-law, Mom asked me to bring you some grass carp."
"Come in and sit down!"
Lu Jin said a little nervously: "No, my parents are waiting for me to eat."
Su Yan winked at Lu Ting, who then dragged Lu Jin into the house. "You little brat, are you afraid we'll eat you? You're so lucky! I just asked a friend to buy me five pounds of venison today, and you're here. Come sit down and eat together, and then go back after you're done."
It’s not that Lu Ting didn’t want to share some venison with his parents. He only managed to get five pounds in total, and after barbecue and hot pot, it wasn’t enough for him and his wife.
"No, Mom said to go back quickly after delivering the fish. The meal is ready at home. We're having fish tonight."
"I asked you to eat, but you kept talking so much nonsense like a woman. Your brother's house is not someone else's. Sit down quickly."
As soon as Lu Ting yelled, Lu Jin immediately became obedient. Su Yan hurriedly got up to get him bowls and chopsticks, and prepared a barbecue dipping sauce and a hot pot dipping sauce for him.
Worried that there wouldn't be enough meat, he cut two more sausages and boiled two pounds of sweet potato flour for later use.
Hua Min waited for a long time but Lu Jin didn't come back. She was worried that the road was slippery and her son fell without anyone noticing.
"Fengnian, go to the door and see why Jin'er hasn't come back yet?"
"Don't worry about him being such a grown man. He's probably been invited by his brother and sister-in-law to stay for dinner. Let's hurry up and eat. The food will get cold in a short time in this cold weather."
Lu Yu suddenly said: "Mom, next time you want to send something, please let me go. I haven't eaten alone at my eldest brother's house yet."
Lu Fengnian picked up the chopsticks and tapped Lu Yu's head lightly, "Am I short of food for you guys? I've been wanting to go to your brother's house for dinner all day long."
"Dad, my eldest brother's family eats meat every day. I guess they haven't finished all the meat they had last time."
At half past seven, Lu Jin came back with a flashlight. Because of the wind on the way, he started burping as soon as he entered the door.
"Second brother, what delicious food did you eat? You've been burping all the time and you came back so late."
Lu Jin smiled and stuffed a bag of fruits and a bag of dried fruits into Lu Yu's arms.
"Sister-in-law said you didn't go over for dinner, so she prepared some fruits and dried fruits for you."
Lu Yu took the food handed to him by his second brother with a smile, and asked again, "Second brother, what did you eat at eldest brother's house?"
"Barbecue and hot pot. I didn't expect venison could be eaten that way. It's really delicious."
"How do you eat it?"
"Dip the roasted venison in my sister-in-law's secret dry sauce, wrap it in lettuce, and swallow it in one gulp. The taste is..."
Lu Yu couldn't help swallowing his saliva after being told this. "Second brother, when will they barbecue again? I want to eat too."
