Chapter 59 Harmony
Zhang Wu, who was so energetic just now, suddenly became shy and timid after entering the house and seeing people, which made the whole family laugh.
Zhang Ze patted the back of his head: "Call me sister."
"Hello, sister." Zhang Wu touched the back of his head where he was patted, looking a little silly.
"You are Awu, right? This is the snack I brought you." Tong Shuyao picked up the egg cake she bought and placed it in his hand, looking at him with a smile.
"hey-hey."
“Pah~”
"Brother, why did you hit me again?"
"Why are you grinning like an idiot? Why don't you thank your sister?"
"Oh, thank you, sis."
Tong Shuyao covered her mouth and chuckled, suddenly finding this brother-in-law very interesting.
Zhang Qing even collapsed in Zhang Qian's arms with laughter. She really didn't know that her younger brother had such a side to him.
However, with Zhang Wu's arrival, the atmosphere at home became more harmonious and the sense of strangeness was reduced a lot.
"Aze, you stay at home with Shuyao. Mom will go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some pork." Seeing that Tong Shuyao was chatting happily with her children, Zhang Huihong felt relieved and came to Zhang Ze and whispered.
"Shuyao, let Aqian and the others stay with you first. I'm going to the beach to catch a fish and make some fish soup!" The fish soup would taste better if a few slices of fat were added. He wanted to show off his skills today, and it was time for the blue snapper he caught yesterday to make its own contribution.
"Okay." Zhang Huihong's lunch menu includes pork and eggs, but it would be even better with fish soup.
We are not afraid of what others say if we cook some pork at home today. Most people in the village must know that Zhang Ze has brought his girlfriend here, so it is normal to buy some pork to entertain them.
After Zhang Huihong left, Zhang Ze said something to a few girls and then went to the beach. He pretended to take out the fish and also took some blue crabs and swimming crabs.
When he returned home, he found Tong Shuyao was learning pinyin with Zhang Qian and her sister, and Zhang Wu was also joining in the fun.
The children like to take the lead, and he is the most active one.
Tong Shuyao saw Zhang Ze coming back and stood up immediately, a little embarrassed: "Well, I just haven't read any books, so I'm a little curious."
Although the word "shu" (school) is in his name, the Tong family did not have the conditions and had never thought about sending their children to school, even Tong Yuanhang had never been to school.
Illiteracy is not surprising in this era.
"It's okay. Anyone who wants to study can study in my house. If you like studying, you can study with Qian and the others in the future." Zhang Ze himself went to university through self-study. Those years made him understand a lot of things, so he always thought that studying is a good thing.
Especially since Tong Shuyao will become his wife in the future, if she is willing to study, even if she only studies until high school, she will have more common language with him.
"Really?" When the girl heard this, her eyes showed a hint of surprise and unexpectedness.
"Oh, Sister Shuyao, my brother is very easy to talk to. My mother thinks studying is useless, but my brother has always supported Sister Qian and me. When you become my sister-in-law in the future, the three of us will study together." Zhang Qing took Tong Shuyao's hand and gave her reassurance.
Zhang Ze smiled and nodded: "I read it myself, and it is always useful to learn more. You guys continue, I will take care of the fish first."
"Let me help you!" Tong Shuyao saw that there was work to do and had no time to study, so she walked out of the room immediately.
Zhang Ze originally wanted to refuse, as he only wanted to kill a fish and deal with crabs, but the next moment, he thought of something and nodded in agreement.
"Then you kill the fish and I'll take care of the crabs."
Tong Shuyao was a little surprised to see the swimming crabs and blue crabs. She didn't expect Zhang Ze to be so quick. In just a short while, he not only caught a fish, but also caught so many big crabs.
But the island is unlike the village here. She often eats blue crabs and swimming crabs, and sometimes she dries them if she can't finish them.
Dried crab meat is called crab rice, and dried crab roe is called crab roe. They are very delicious when used to cook porridge.
But for her, she can't eat rice every day. Most of the time she eats sweet potato porridge. The taste of sweet potatoes with these is just edible.
Tong Shuyao killed the fish skillfully, Zhang Ze processed a few crabs, and after a while, Zhang Huihong came back with the fat meat wrapped in paper.
When she saw her future daughter-in-law killing fish, she quickly stepped forward and took away the kitchen knife: "Let me do it, Aze, you are so mean, Shuyao is a guest, how can she work? Aqian, Aqing, what are you two doing, come out quickly!"
Seeing this, Zhang Ze smiled and said, "Mom, don't call them, let me do it, it will be done soon!"
His goal had been achieved, and of course he couldn't let his sister get scolded.
Tong Shuyao's initiative to work will naturally deepen Zhang Huihong's liking for her, even if it is just such a trivial thing.
In this age of information explosion, things that destroy his worldview often appear on the Internet.
But it's not without benefits. At least he wanted to know why his ex-wife did that, so he learned about women's psychology on the Internet.
Although I only learned a little bit, including a lot of stuff about PUA men, I also learned a lot.
Conflicts will arise when relatives get along with each other, not to mention the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Zhang Huihong seems to like Tong Shuyao very much now, but after living together, some conflicts are likely to arise due to their different living habits.
Sometimes, women’s conflicts seem inexplicable to men. In fact, they are caused by various trivial things in the eyes of men. Small things accumulate slowly and then explode.
Therefore, from the very beginning, Zhang Ze planned to make the relationship between the two sides more harmonious through some small things.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Maintaining stability at home is actually something a man needs to learn.
At noon, Zhang's mother made braised pork and scrambled eggs.
Zhang Ze made fish soup and braised crabs.
Although steaming can make seafood retain its original flavor and taste fresher, it depends on who the guests are.
What Tong Shuyao has the most on the island is all kinds of seafood that are boiled or steamed. On the contrary, she likes the taste of braised seafood very much, which is rich in ingredients and flavor!
The fish soup astounded her even more. It was the first time she knew that fish could be cooked in this way.
There is no need to talk about pork, it is the king of food, nothing else can compare to it!
This meal made Tong Shuyao realize how much the Zhang family valued her, and also helped her reduce a lot of her pre-marriage worries and anxieties.
In the afternoon, Zhang Ze took her for a walk around the village and met Zhang Qinghe who had come specially for her.
When he saw Tong Shuyao's appearance, the image of Liu Qiaoqiao in his mind faded again.
It is let go, but it takes time to completely heal the scars of this secret love.
But after meeting Tong Shuyao, he suddenly felt that what Zhang Ze said before was right. There are many girls with good looks and good personalities, and maybe he should really go on a blind date.
So, "Aze, are there any suitable girls on your dating island? Please ask for me!"
Zhang Ze glanced at him with a smile.
Haha, man! "Why, you don't miss your Liu Qiaoqiao anymore?"
"She's already someone else's wife, why am I still thinking about her?" Zhang Qinghe said in a bad mood, his voice getting louder. But when he noticed that Tong Shuyao, who was waiting for them not far away, was looking over here, he lowered his voice again, "My requirements are not high, as long as she is not worse than your partner."
Zhang Ze almost rolled his eyes after hearing this: "Do you think there are beautiful girls everywhere? Okay, I'll talk to Shuyao and let my future mother-in-law help you find one."
"You can also ask your mother to go and look around. Maybe you can find a suitable one in the nearby villages."
He had a clearer understanding of Zhang Qinghe.
I originally thought that he simply fell in love with the wrong person, but it turned out that he was what young people in later generations call a "dog who likes looks and loves men for their looks."
But he didn't care. He and Zhang Qinghe were just friends. He exposed Liu Qiaoqiao more because the team leader took care of his family and would give them more preferential treatment when the land was distributed to households next year.
