After strolling around and receiving countless envious glances from everyone, Wen Jianguo pushed his bicycle home in high spirits.
"Xiao Cao, did you leave the rice in the pot for me?" Wen Jianguo asked as he parked the car.
Tian Xiaocao looked at the sky, looked at the earth, but didn't look at Wen Jianguo, pretending that she didn't hear anything.
Wen Jianguo walked into the kitchen on his own and opened the lid of the pot. The bottom of the pot was empty, without even a drop of water.
Well... Xiaocao must be considerate of him and doesn't want him to wash dishes after work. Wen Jianguo turned around and opened the chest of drawers, but it was still empty.
After searching every lid and inside every cabinet, Wen Jianguo had to accept that there was no food left in the kitchen.
"Xiao Cao, where is my dinner?" Wen Jianguo rushed out of the kitchen, holding his growling stomach.
Tian Xiaocao was about to explain when Cui Yulan crossed her arms and glanced at Wen Jianguo, "Hey, you still remember to eat?"
"Mom, even a fool knows that he needs to eat." Wen Jianguo pursed his lips.
"Then you, Wen Jianguo, are worse than a fool. You don't even want to eat." Cui Yulan put her hands on her hips and retorted with a sneer.
Wen Jianguo was dumbfounded. He could tell from the implication that he would have no food to eat today.
After thinking for a moment, he explained with a playful smile: "No, Mom, I went out to familiarize myself with the road conditions. I can take my little sister to town tomorrow."
"Stop pretending to be crazy. Were you going to town just now?" Cui Yulan asked in a deep voice. She knew exactly what was going on in her own child's belly.
Wen Jianguo felt uneasy, "I... I'll go get familiar with the road conditions in the village first."
Seeing that his eldest brother was having trouble speaking clearly, Wen Wan stepped forward and advised, "Mom, please stop talking about my eldest brother. If he practices more, my eldest brother and I won't fall down tomorrow.
Just think about it, if my brother and I fall down when we go to town, we will be covered in dirt and grime, how embarrassing it would be. "
Cui Yulan tapped Wen Wan's forehead and said angrily, "Okay, okay, you two brothers can do whatever you want. I don't care."
When Tian Xiaocao saw that Cui Yulan had calmed down, she stood up and took Wen Jianguo back to the room, uncovered the rice bowl covered by the dustpan, and said, "Eat."
"Wife, I knew that you were the only one in the family who cared about me and would definitely not let me starve." Wen Jianguo was so moved that tears were about to come out.
Tian Xiaocao said sarcastically, "Mom said you're already stupid enough, and if you're hungry you'll be even more stupid, so I agreed to leave it for you."
She felt that her mother was right today. Jianguo had really gone too far. The meal was already on the table but he still went out to show off. He should be taught a lesson.
Wen Jianguo smiled bitterly, picked up the bowl and slurped the rice, but he was starving.
Inside the main room next door.
"Xiao Wan, will the radio be damaged?" Cui Yulan felt a little worried.
Wen Wan's eyes turned, "Mom, we have to use the radio. It will definitely break if we leave it alone."
Regardless of whether it will break or not, she said it would break, otherwise her mother would keep it and probably wait until she gets married before taking it out.
"Then I'll give it to you later and you can use it in your room." Cui Yulan agreed softly.
Wen Wan shook his head and said, "Mom, put the radio in the living room. Anyone who wants to listen can play it."
Hearing this, Wen Dafu, who was smoking a Daqianmen cigarette, had his eyes shining. He was thinking that he could listen to some storytelling and crosstalk after dinner.
"That won't work. The radio is so expensive. If you put it in the living room with people coming and going, what if it gets broken?" Cui Yulan rejected the suggestion without any hesitation.
Wen Dafu nodded and said, "Yulan, you are right. It cannot be placed in the main room."
