Chapter 10: Smells Good
Su Dahu entered the kitchen and saw that Mrs. Su was too busy, so he started rolling up his sleeves.
"Wife, what should I do?" Su Dahu asked.
The men of the Su family have never been far away from the kitchen.
Old man Su loves his wife very much. When his sons were young, he helped cook for them.
Su Dahu has been helping Old Lady Su wash pots and dishes since he was a few years old.
After listening to her husband's words, Zhao Chunhua pointed to the basin on the ground.
"Please clean up these two crucian carps. I'll make crucian carp soup for Mom first."
Everything else is secondary. The most important thing is to quickly make fish soup for my mother-in-law so that she can drink it to increase her milk production.
After all, no one can starve, but the little girl can't starve, right?
While Mrs. Su was busy working, she was thinking in her mind, and her whole mind was on her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
Little Tangbao's aggrieved look completely impressed Mrs. Su.
What's more, there are suddenly chickens and fish at home.
Although Mrs. Su didn't say anything, she was convinced in her heart that it was due to the blessing of her sister-in-law.
Otherwise, how could such a coincidence happen?
It's like pie in the sky.
Whose family would be the one to receive such a big pie? Who wouldn’t worship their sister-in-law?
Mrs. Su was very motivated. After she cooked the fish soup, she brought it directly to Old Mrs. Su.
"Mom, drink it while it's hot."
Mrs. Su handed the bowl to Old Mrs. Su, and did not forget to glance at her sister-in-law on the kang.
The more I look at it, the rarer it becomes.
Old Madam Su took the fish soup and said, "Your father is in a good mood today, so make more food. If you really can't make it, go to your Third Grandma's house and borrow some food."
"I know, mother. There is enough food at home."
After Mrs. Su finished speaking, she went back to the kitchen to busy herself.
Chicken and fish were stewed in a big pot, and a circle of large cornmeal pancakes were stuck on the edge of the pot.
Fortunately, the Su family has many people, so they usually cook with two large iron pots.
Stewing chicken in one pot and fish in another is just right.
Uncle and nephew Su Liuhu and Su Dapan helped to light the fire.
Su Erpan walked around the stove, sniffing the fragrance.
“It smells so good!”
Erpan took a deep breath towards the big pot.
If you are not careful, you will drool.
When Da Pan saw this, he also took a deep breath.
“Mmm, it smells so good!”
Mrs. Su felt a little sad when she saw how greedy her children were.
There has been no smell of oil in the Su family's pot for a long time.
These children have suffered so much.
If her sister-in-law could really make the family's life better as the fortune teller said, she would be happy to burn three incense sticks to worship her sister-in-law every morning and evening.
**
Both the host and the guests enjoyed the meal very much, and Old Man Su drank heartily.
In his own words, except for the day he got married, he has not been so happy in all these years.
After hearing this, the sons were once again certain that they were nothing but weeds in their father's eyes.
After dinner, Old Man Su assigned Su Dahu and Su Erhu to go to the town to sell the remaining fish and exchange them for some rice and flour for his wife to eat during her confinement.
Su Dahu and Su Erhu agreed verbally, but were in no hurry to leave. They each dragged their wives back to their rooms to talk in private.
say what?
"Wife, who does your sister look like? Is she pretty? Is she fair?" Su Dahu asked.
Zhao Chunhua looked very proud after hearing what the man said.
"Of course my sister is pretty! Pretty and fair!"
Zhao Chunhua's proud look made Su Dahu feel itchy in his heart.
"Wife, how about... we try harder and try to have a daughter."
As Su Dahu spoke, the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Chunhua had some meaning.
He had drunk some wine at noon and was already a little tipsy. Now that he had some thoughts on his mind, he couldn't control himself.
A pair of big hands, uncontrollably touching his wife...
Zhao Chunhua's face suddenly turned red.
"I'm going to die! In broad daylight!"
As Zhao Chunhua spoke, she opened Su Dahu's hand with a "click".
A trace of grievance appeared on Su Dahu's face.
Zhao Chunhua didn't care whether her man felt wronged or not, she turned around and started rummaging through the drawers.
"I remember there's a small piece of floral cloth at home, which is perfect for sewing a quilt for my aunt. Her quilt is covered with patches, so I won't want to disgrace her..."
Zhao Chunhua kept talking while her hands were moving.
Soon, a small piece of red floral cloth was found from the box.
This piece of floral cloth was her most precious treasure, it was her dowry when she got married, and she had never been willing to make clothes out of it.
Now is the perfect time to make a small quilt for my sister-in-law, and maybe a small flowered jacket.
Zhao Chunhua took the floral cloth and hurried to Old Lady Su's room.
As for her own man, she has already forgotten about him.
Now that you have a sister-in-law, men and the like can just stay wherever is cool.
Su Dahu: “…”
I watched my daughter-in-law leave with my own eyes, feeling extremely sad.
Not only did his father become a stepfather, but even his wife was taken away by his younger sister.
Su Dahu in the east wing was extremely desolate, while Su Erhu in the west wing was furious.
"So mother gave birth to a younger sister, and you, as her daughter-in-law, not only did you not go to serve her, you didn't even go to say hello?" Su Laoer asked angrily.
He had no choice but to ask Qian Yuemei what his sister looked like, but Qian Yuemei knew nothing about it.
It was obvious that Qian Yuemei had never been to Old Lady Su's house.
Qian Yuemei felt really guilty and short of breath when facing Su Erhu's anger.
"I, I haven't taken care of it yet, have I?"
"Didn't take care of it?"
Su Laoer was so angry that the veins on his forehead were throbbing.
"Did you wash clothes or cook? Or did you wash the pots and dishes? Sweep the floor or feed the pigs?"
Su Erhu asked a series of questions.
Qian Yuemei: “…”
She didn't do anything.
Without her answering, Su Erhu continued, "Don't think I didn't see it. The meal was cooked by my sister-in-law, and the fire was lit by Xiaoliu and Dapan. What did you do?"
Qian Yuemei: "I, I..."
Su Erhu was so angry that his eyes almost popped out.
"Qian Yuemei, tell me, what else did you do besides eating?! No one expects you to work, so can't you just chat with me?! Pour me a glass of water?! Help me coax my sister?!"
Qian Yuemei: “…”
Push your belly forward.
"I...I'm pregnant with a daughter for you!"
Qian Yuemei felt confident again.
Su Erhu: “…”
The anger in his heart surged, and he saw that Qian Yuemei's belly was pressed down by him again.
"Qian Yuemei! I want to see if you can give birth to a daughter by then! If you do give birth to a daughter, I will worship you!"
After Su Erhu finished speaking, he left angrily.
As a result, as soon as he went out, he saw Mrs. Su holding a piece of floral cloth and going to Old Lady Su's room.
I don't need to ask to know that the eldest sister-in-law must have taken out the most precious fabric in her closet and sent it to her younger sister.
Su Erhu became more and more upset.
Why is his wife so disappointing?
He is greedy, lazy and calculating all day long.
"Second brother, what do you think? What does our sister look like? Does she look like me? Is she pretty? Is she fair?"
Su Liuhu came over with an excited look on his face, followed by his two little tails, Da Pan and Er Pan.
Su Erhu: “…”
The look he gave his younger brother was full of resentment.
This is like stabbing him in the heart!
Su Erhu slapped Su Liuhu on the head.
"What do you mean? Are you handsome? Are you fair?"
Su Erhu was full of disgust.
I finally feel a little better.
