Zhao Cuilan warmed the food in the pot, thinking of waiting for Lei Dashu and Lei Jun to arrive before eating. When she was about to go to the main room, she heard noise coming from the yard.
"Here I am, let's prepare dinner."
Lei Jun saw his mother and picked up the basket with a smile: "Mom, we have a good harvest today."
Zhao Cuilan clapped her hands excitedly and asked, "Is it true?"
"Of course not."
"Okay, keep your voice down, Boss, go clean up the fish quickly and let your mother stew it."
"Okay."
…………………………………………
Five minutes later.
Lei Jun took the cleaned fish into the kitchen and handed it to his mother. Zhao Cuilan took the fish and put it in the pot to make soup. Old man Lei, who was sitting in front of the stove, looked at his eldest son and spoke.
"After dinner, go to the captain's house and ask for leave. Ask him to write you a letter of introduction. Tomorrow morning, bring some money to the supply and marketing department.
See if you can buy malted milk. If not, go to Zhenzhen and see if she can help you get some. It’s not enough for the two kids at home.”
"I know, Dad."
"Big brother, go to your second brother's room to have dinner with your wife, children, and the third brother."
"good."
Lei Jun nodded and walked to his second brother's room and knocked on the door: "Gui, it's time for the children to eat in the evening."
"Hey, here I come."
Hearing his wife's response, Lei Jun went to the third brother's room to call for help.
When Zhang Guiying brought the children out, her parents-in-law had already put the food on the table. When they saw them come out, they quickly invited them to eat.
"Hurry up, sit down and eat."
The children sat obediently in their seats waiting for their grandmother to share the food. Each of them was given a bowl of thin sweet potato porridge, which was eaten with pickles and wild vegetables on the table.
Lei Qingyun shrugged his nose and smelled a fishy fragrance: "Sister, do you smell anything? It smells..."
Lei Jun looked at his youngest son and said, "Eat quickly."
Zhang Guiying moved her mouth but ultimately said nothing, as she knew that was the food rations for her second brother's two children.
Zhao Cuilan picked up a few pickles with her chopsticks and drank the porridge in the bowl in two or three gulps. Then she stood up and went to the kitchen to check the soup.
She sat on a small stool and sighed slightly.
After a long time, Zhao Cuilan opened the lid of the pot, looked at the milky thick soup, scooped two large spoonfuls of soup and half a fish into the basin and took it out.
"Everyone has a little taste."
"mother?"
"Eat. There has been no meat smell in the house for a few days. Yueyue needs nourishment, and so do you, the laborers and the children..."
Zhao Cuilan directly gave each person a small spoonful, and the children also got a few pieces of fish.
"mother……"
"Eat it quickly, or it will get cold and taste bad. There's more in the pot. I'm saving it for Yueyue, so don't worry about it."
Lei Dashu picked up his bowl and poured half of it into Zhao Cuilan's bowl. Then he looked at the family and said, "Eat."
Lei Yu silently put away his own bowl. He also wanted to pour some for his mother, but he didn't expect his father to get there first.
When the three children saw that their grandparents let them eat, they subconsciously looked at their mother.
Zhang Guizhen wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "Eat."
She was glad that she married into the Lei family. There was no vicious mother-in-law to bother her, the sisters-in-law got along well with each other, and the children were sensible and motivated. There was no better home than this.
Unable to hold back his words, Lei Qingyun scooped up the fish meat with a spoon, and said to his sister beside him: "Sister, sister, it's fish meat..."
After saying this, he didn't care whether his sister would answer him or not, and immediately ate the fish in small bites.
“Delicious~”
During this period, we have been eating pickled vegetables and wild vegetables every day, and the children seldom eat meat. So tonight, the little ones all had sweet dreams about eating meat when they went to sleep.
While the family was having dinner, Si Yueyue checked her rental space again.
Arriving at the bathroom, Si Yueyue picked up her phone and opened it to see if she could contact her friend, but to her surprise, it showed that the service area was out of service.
