This year, He Wenlin granted He Shan leave, and the family drove back to their hometown on the afternoon of the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month.
The cake shop was doing very well before the Lunar New Year. He Shan was the manager of a very successful shop, so when she wasn't there, He's mother personally helped out at the cake shop.
He Wenlin spends a lot of time at the cake factory, and with the end of the year approaching, she has many social engagements with clients and bosses, so she needs to arrange for New Year's gifts to be delivered in advance.
Mr. He and Mrs. He returned to Shaoxing on the morning of New Year's Eve.
I brought a lot of local specialties from my hometown.
Although she has settled down down here now, He Wenlin still misses the taste of her hometown very much.
While sorting through the mushrooms, we found a bag weighing over two pounds of dried wild mushrooms.
He's father said, "This was given to you by your maternal grandmother. She said you love to eat it, so she specially saved it for you this year. I guess it was because last year she asked you to forgive Tang Jianguo and Xu Aihua, and she knew you were unhappy. Your aunt said that your maternal grandmother brought back mushrooms from the mountains, and she didn't eat any of the fresh ones, but dried them all and saved them for you."
“I can understand her feelings, but I will never forgive Tang Jianguo and his family.”
He Wenlin was so good to them, and then they pulled that stunt. There's no way they can make up with them!
He Wenlin said, "I'll stir-fry it for lunch, Mom. You make this so well, you stir-fry it."
“I can cook it, you can wash it,” said Aunt He. “This stuff is a pain to wash.”
Because dried wild mushrooms are not processed and are simply laid out to dry in the sun, which is too hot in summer, they actually contain maggots and some even have mud inside, making them difficult to wash.
He Wenlin didn't want to wash either; all she wanted to do right now was eat.
"I think we should hire a nanny for our family."
Aunt He rolled her eyes at her: "For such a small job, you still need to hire a nanny? You must have a lot of money to burn."
Grandma He: "Linlin works hard all the time, doing business and studying at the same time, so I'll do the washing."
"Mom, don't spoil her. You've been on the road for so long, go and get some sleep. I'll call you when it's time to eat." Mrs. He urged Mrs. He to go to sleep.
"I'm not sleepy." After washing her hands, Grandma He went to the kitchen to help.
After driving for more than ten hours, Mr. He unloaded the goods, took a shower, changed his clothes, and went to bed.
Mr. He, who is worth millions, spent nearly an hour painstakingly washing wild mushrooms.
Grandma and Aunt He stewed a big bowl of cured pork trotters with cured pork, stir-fried cured beef and cured chicken gizzards with chopped chili peppers, cooked egg dumplings with farm-style sweet potato vermicelli, braised fish chunks, stir-fried spicy and sour pork belly, stir-fried spinach, and stir-fried dried wild mushrooms with chili peppers—a total of eight dishes!
He Wenlin ate two bowls of rice at noon and was stuffed.
