Chapter 268 Returning to My Mother's Home



Since Zhou Mingyuan and the others all said they wanted to drink, Zhou Qinglan didn't press the issue any further.

"Oh dear, look at them, it's really bad that they came back with so little stuff. Why are they carrying so little? It's so heavy carrying all that way."

Seeing that his younger brother was so upset he almost jumped up, Zhao Yongsheng deliberately poured cold water on me.

Chen Weiguo felt sorry for his daughter, but he was also very tactful in his words.

But since those words were clearly negative, Chen Weiguo could only chuckle as an answer to his son's question.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yongsheng snorted. If that young man went to the forest farm, he would probably have a blast with Sheng Xikang and the others.

If he stays at home, he can leave the machine repair shop in a year or two and become an apprentice or something. Without Zhou Qinglan around, he can just hire someone in a few years.

So the siblings put down the table and started serving the dishes and cleaning up. Meanwhile, Zhou Qinglan found two bottles of wine and insisted on having a drink with Zhou Mingyuan and the others.

Let's just have a drink this lunch; we need to get down to business.

They eat whatever they can find outside the home, so how could the daughter-in-law be so picky?

A few small fish were carried by threading their gills through willow branches, while the miscellaneous fish were collected in buckets. Then, the canal was dismantled, and the fishermen slowly walked home.

The next time this deer penis came, it was indeed bought by Old Xiao. It is said that Old Xiao took it and added a lot of medicinal herbs to make wine.

"He knew perfectly well that the child he was carrying outside his belly was the son of some noble family, yet he was so pretentious."

Since there's no such condition or opportunity, it would be inappropriate to act as a matchmaker for the son-in-law.

"You'll be on holiday in a few days. What's so interesting about town? Do you want to go back to the forest farm with them and spend a few days there?"

Of course, what you said is true. In those days, who had ever heard of a pregnant woman being given a separate meal?

Early in the morning, Zhang Shuzhen picked a dozen cucumbers with flowers and thorns still attached from outside the vegetable garden, and also gathered garland chrysanthemum, spinach, Chinese cabbage, and radishes.

Speaking of that, Cao Chengfeng was also full of gratitude. The Sheng family really had a lot to say about you.

It was only before you got pregnant that you took it seriously, and even after you got pregnant, you never neglected it. It's truly a blessing that you were able to marry into such a family.

Zhou Mingyuan planned to go to Wang Chunxiu's place, so he took out two bottles of wine from his basket and gave one to Zhou Qinglan as well.

Zhao Yongsheng poured water for his mother and then came out of the east room, wanting to chat with her for a while.

Everyone says that studying is useful, but Chen Weiguo understands that no matter what era, studying will be too useless.

We don't have any eggs at home yet. Mom will save up some for you during your postpartum period; she's worried we won't have enough to eat.

"Oh, by the way, we don't have any deer antlers yet. You can sell them all on your way up there."

But strangely enough, Cao Chengfeng could drink meatball soup, but he ate stir-fried venison and braised venison.

Cao Chengfeng is a cultured man, and the two Si also drink, but since they have guests from outside the family, they have to take care of them.

The eight people reluctantly agreed, and Zhou Qinglan was also in low spirits. Just as the food was being served, Cao Chengfeng quickly called his wife and children to come and eat.

That was because Chen Weiguo was being disrespectful to his son-in-law. On the contrary, Cao Chengfeng treated his son-in-law like family, and there was no need to be so polite to one's own family.

"Why does he seem to be having such a strong reaction? He can even smell the stir-fried dishes. How is he supposed to eat? Will the smell even go away?"

Zhou Mingyuan and his wife, along with Wang Jianshe and us, boarded the large train and headed straight for Songjianghe.

Zhou Mingyuan smiled and said, "Dad, that bottle wasn't for him. You kept two bottles for Secretary Zhao."

"Oh, it's fine to use, you can do it yourself."

Besides, Zhou Mingyuan and his wife only had so few things with them; they could easily carry them to the guesthouse.

Cao Chengfeng is a bookworm. At my age, how could I possibly understand how to conduct myself in society?

Wang Jianshe and Sheng Xi'an quickly echoed, "Why drink alcohol on such a cold day? It's better to just have a quiet meal."

Zhou Mingyuan naturally understood, so he smiled and left the house, put the basket on the ground, and then took out all the things we had brought from outside the house and took them to the kitchen inside.

But the kitchen is cooking, and the smell of cooking oil makes you want to vomit. There's no other way but to go outside to get some fresh air and talk to your mother from there.

Zhou Mingyuan glanced at his mother-in-law and saw that she seemed to be planning to add a few more dishes. His wife was pregnant and couldn't stand the smell of cooking oil, so he thought he should slow down and help her out.

"Oh, right, that's important. He's waiting. You can take it."

Upon seeing Zhou Mingyuan and his wife carrying all the things belonging to the elderly and children, Wang Jianshe quickly took the egg basket from Zhao Yongsheng and teased us.

Of course, that was just the money earned by Sheng Liancheng and his eight brothers. That was almost the money earned by the entire Sheng family together. Even people like Sheng Xitai had to get involved to achieve that result.

The couple left home and headed straight for the main train station.
