At noon, Yu was at home and heard several sisters-in-law talking about what big thing Xu Jinyi next door had done that day, and his brows furrowed tightly.
"The educated youth next door actually bought the big iron pot from the supply and marketing cooperative. I heard he also bought a lot of other things."
"Who is she from? That big iron pot is so expensive, but she bought it just like that."
"I heard that the money she spends at one time is equal to what we share in the whole year."
Shi Ersao took a breath and said, "Aren't you here to work in the countryside? Are you here to enjoy life?"
"But looking at her, she doesn't look like a working woman. She looks like a vixen, not serious at all."
When he stood behind them, he stared at his second sister-in-law with dark eyes and a cold look.
Wang Jinhua came out of the kitchen and knocked Shi Ersao on the back of the head.
"If you can't speak, don't talk nonsense. You're jealous of others who have money and work in the fields, so you get more work points."
Wang Jinhua doesn't like this second daughter-in-law at all. She is really a troublemaker.
If you kill her daughter-in-law, just wait and see how she'll deal with her.
"Mom, I am your daughter-in-law, why are you siding with outsiders? Besides, I didn't say this, many people are saying it." Shi Ersao cried out in pain.
"You're the only one who likes to hang out with those gossipy women. You actually have a foul mouth."
Xu Jinyi was making sweet and sour pork ribs, and the aroma wafted over.
The children of the Shi family started to make a fuss, clamoring for meat.
"Eat, eat, eat! You're the reincarnation of a starving ghost! Didn't we just eat chicken yesterday?"
Shi Ersao was already irritable, and when she heard the child making a noise, she grabbed Shi Nian and spanked him.
Shi Yu looked down upon his second aunt's behavior, but it was not his place to say anything when his mother beat her own child.
Xu Jinyi bought four ribs, cooked them all in one meal, and divided them into three bowls.
Xu Jinyi went out with the basket and saw Wang Jinfeng picking vegetables at the door.
I walked over with a smile and said, "Auntie, are you picking vegetables?"
"Xu Zhiqing, go out."
"Yes." Xu Jinyi took out the largest bowl of ribs from the basket and handed it over.
"Thank you Comrade Shi Yu for the chicken yesterday. As a token of reciprocity, I made some spare ribs today. Aunties, please try them and see if they are delicious."
Only then did Wang Jinfeng realize that the chicken her youngest son had given her yesterday was actually given to Xu Jinyi.
It seems that the youngest son must be interested in Xu Zhiqing in front of him.
They both started passing meat to each other, and I took it with a smile: "Okay, don't be so polite next time. I'll ask Lao Si to return your bowl after you finish eating."
Wang Jinfeng wanted to applaud herself, thinking that she was a great mother who knew how to create opportunities for her son.
It was only when dinner was served at home that Wang Jinfeng took out the big bowl of meat.
Put it directly in front of Shi Yu.
Yes, in Wang Jinfeng's opinion, this meat was made by Xu Jinyi herself, and only her youngest son could eat it.
No one else can touch it.
This partiality directly caused dissatisfaction in Shi Ersao's wife, and she pouted her mouth.
"Mom, I know you favor the fourth brother, but you can't let us watch him eat meat alone. Shi Nian is still your granddaughter." Mrs. Shi pinched the second brother.
The second brother smacked his lips and said nothing, not standing on his wife's side at all.
"If I favor the fourth brother, I can separate you one by one, and no one can take advantage of the fourth brother."
"You live in a house built with Old Four's money and eat canned peaches that Old Four brought back, and you still have the nerve to talk nonsense."
"Besides, what do you think about me being partial? Big Boss, Second Boss, Third Boss, do you have any objections?"
The Shi brothers' heads shook faster than anything else. My mother's eyes were sharp. The three brothers of the Shi family were not stupid. They knew very well what the consequences would be if they offended me.
They all lowered their heads and looked at Second Brother Shi, their eyes full of resentment.
The third brother even winked at the second brother, as if to say, "Please take care of your daughter-in-law. I don't want to get into trouble."
The second brother spread his hands under the table and said with a flat mouth: "There's nothing I can do."
The three brothers said together, "Mom, we have no objection, not at all. Fourth brother has worked hard, so he deserves to eat more."
"Yes, yes, nourish your body."
Wang Jinfeng nodded with satisfaction, looking as if she thought they were sensible.
"If you don't have any objections, eat. If you have any objections, go out and eat dirt."
They nodded and ate the wild vegetable porridge in their bowls, not daring to speak anymore.
Shi Yu raised his hand and placed the bowl in the middle: "Let's eat together."
Shi Ersao's face lit up with joy and she quickly stretched out her chopsticks.
"Pah~"
Wang Jinfeng knocked her hand with a chopstick and glared at her fiercely: "What's your business?"
Then he brought the ribs to himself, knowing that his youngest son was filial and would not eat them alone.
There were so many in such a big bowl that Wang Jinfeng couldn’t even count them.
This bowl of meat can be said to be extremely precious. After all, if Shi Yu had not come back, they would not have been able to eat meat for a whole year.
Wang Jinfeng is a very frugal person. After all, she has four sons to support, and marrying them all costs money.
So most of the time we eat porridge at home, and only eat something dry during the double harvest season.
Wang Jinfeng carefully picked up two pieces of meaty ribs and gave them to her man.
Then he took two more pieces for himself, and then it was the labor force in the family, except Shi Yu's three brothers, who each got one piece.
I looked at the bowl and saw about a dozen pieces of ribs. There were five grandchildren in total, and three daughters-in-law.
If everyone gets another piece, the youngest son won't have much left.
Wang Jinfeng was just thinking about not dividing the money and giving it all to her youngest son for nourishment, but Shi Yu spoke up.
"Mom, give each of these carrot heads a piece."
The five carrot heads were visibly happy: "Thank you, uncle."
Shi Tou, the flatterer of the Shi family, smiled and said, "Uncle, when I grow up, I will buy meat for you to eat."
"It's better if you remember it." Wang Jinfeng smiled and picked up a piece of meaty pork ribs for Shitou.
Although this grandson is the most mischievous and likes to be lazy at work, Wang Jinfeng likes Shitou the most among her grandchildren.
The main thing is that he is sweet-mouthed and can coax people.
After dividing it, there were about ten pieces left in the bowl, and Wang Jinfeng gave them all to Shi Yu.
Shi Ersao waited eagerly, but finally found that hers was not there.
"Mom, there's still so much in the bowl?"
Wang Jinfeng glanced at Shi Ersao and said, "Didn't you just say bad things about her? Now you want to eat the meat she gave you. How dare you do that?"
Shi Yu took the bowl of sweet and sour pork ribs with a very bright color, picked up two pieces for each of his parents, and ate the rest himself.
The moment the ribs entered his mouth, Shi Yu opened his eyes wide, and the sour and sweet taste filled his entire mouth.
Moreover, the ribs were not old at all, but smooth and tender. I didn’t expect that Xu Jinyi didn’t look like he could do any work, but he was so good at cooking.
