Old Mrs. Xia came out carrying the fish and smiled awkwardly.
This was the most embarrassing moment since her rebirth. What could be more embarrassing than secretly watching her son being a cuckold?
So, the son that he loved so much in his previous life was not his!
Hahahaha, Old Mrs. Xia wanted to laugh, but it seemed a bit impolite in front of the person involved, even though this person was her son.
"Second brother...let's have fish tonight." Old Lady Xia picked up the fish and showed it to him. "This fish is fresh and big. It's perfect for us to nourish our bodies...and our brains."
Chen Xiangnan turned around and left. He was already very sad, and being discovered by his own mother made him feel even more embarrassed.
That would have been fine, but now his mother was mocking him for being brainless, and he was really angry.
"Second brother, don't go, wait for me."
"Mom, if you say that again, I'll really be angry."
Old Lady Xia: "You've been cheated on. Don't even mention being angry. Even if you ascend to heaven, it won't help."
Chen Xiangnan became even angrier. "Why didn't you come out to help me just now? I always helped you every time you got into trouble before."
Old Mrs. Xia felt that he seemed to be mad with anger. Only Chen Lingling in their family could say such words, but he was not a child anymore.
However, seeing that he was really depressed, Old Lady Xia had no choice but to coax him, "Okay, okay, I'll come out to help you next time, okay?"
Chen Xiangnan: "Forget it, you should just hide and watch the fun."
Old Lady Xia: "Why? Are you afraid that she will say that the son is her and me?"
Chen Xiangnan stopped and said, "Mom, can you please stop talking about her?"
Old Mrs. Xia smiled all the way and swore not to tell anyone. Only then did Chen Xiangnan let her into the compound with some doubt.
"Don't tell this to anyone." Chen Xiangnan said this to Old Lady Xia again after entering the house.
Old Mrs. Xia: "Okay, I get it. I'm not a fool. Take it. You go cook the fish today. I'll go pick up Lingling."
Chen Xiangnan: "I'll go pick it up, you cook the fish."
Old Lady Xia laughed in the kitchen for a while, then saw Chen Xiangbei walking in slowly and unsteadily outside the house. She immediately called out, "Third brother, come in and kill the fish!"
Chen Xiangbei had just stepped into the house. He wanted to complain but didn't dare to, for fear that his mother would beat him to death. So he could only pick up the fish, knock it unconscious with a knife, and clean it up quickly.
In just a few days, he went from being a young man who could do nothing to being an expert at housework.
Even the fish were killed very well.
"If you go and slaughter pigs and fish in the future, you will definitely be promoted very quickly." Old Mrs. Xia praised.
Chen Xiangbei hesitated. Really? Could he really get a promotion?
"Mom, why are you in such a good mood today?"
Old Lady Xia grinned widely: "How can you be in a bad mood if you can eat fish?"
Chen Xiangbei also grinned, "Yeah, what kind of day is today? I can actually eat fish, and such a big one at that."
Chen Xiangnan brought Lingling back, first made her a bowl of malted milk to drink, and then sat on the stool in silence.
"What's wrong with second brother?" Chen Xiangbei asked curiously while hanging scales.
Old Lady Xia: "Hahaha, I don't know."
Old Chen came in at this moment, carrying an aluminum lunch box, "Old woman, please heat up this turtle soup. The factory director's wife came over to make it for the factory director at noon today. I happened to be there, so she gave me a bowl."
"I'm so lucky today. This soup is really nourishing."
Old Mrs. Xia wiped her hands and came out, opened the lunch box and handed it to Chen Xiangbei, then sat down with a big laugh.
Old Chen looked at Old Lady Xia in confusion. She wouldn't go crazy over a bowl of turtle soup, would she?
Chen Xiangbei noticed that his second brother's face had become even darker, and he didn't even touch the turtle soup in the evening.
"Second brother, don't you like this?" Old Chen drank with satisfaction, but it was a little too little, just a piece of meat per person. But the soup was really delicious. Why didn't his second brother touch it at all? He was also a weirdo.
Chen Xiangnan: "No, I don't like it. I hate turtles the most!"
He threw down his chopsticks and wanted to leave the table, but Old Mrs. Xia patted his back hard before he sat down again and put the chopsticks and bowl into the kitchen.
No one knew what was going on, except Old Lady Xia, who was almost injured from holding it in so much.
However, if you calm down and think about it, she had also worked like a slave for that child in her previous life, and was not much better than the second child.
Thinking of this, she suddenly became angry.
Old Chen and Chen Xiangbei who stayed behind were both confused. The second son and his old wife were indeed mother and son, they were both so confused.
The girl that Lao Ma brought back was called Guan Tao, and she seemed to be a girl who was easy to get along with.
At night, everyone took a shower and sat in the breeze to enjoy the cool air, while the children ran around and played.
Old Ma's wife came out for the first time. She moved a small stool and sat in front of her door. When she saw people from the compound looking at her, she had no choice but to close the door and walk over with the stool.
"Old Ma's wife, it will be easier for you now that your little Ma has found a wife."
"When will you have the banquet so that we can also enjoy the feast?"
"No wonder you're free to come out and chat with us today. Pony finally has someone to take care of him."
"Where's Lao Ma? Why doesn't he come out? It's so stuffy in the room."
Old Ma's wife chatted with the others, her expression changing from good to bad. "Old Ma is tired and too lazy to come out. Let's wait for the banquet. We haven't yet agreed on a set schedule."
"That's right. Xiao Ma is already in that state. What if...he goes crazy? Then the banquet will be wasted."
"Don't be too sad. As long as they can live a good life, that's enough. I think Xiaoguan is a good kid."
