Zhang Meilan loves her only precious granddaughter.
She knew that brat Chen Jianguo was a good person, but how could she be happy seeing her precious granddaughter, whom she had raised with her own hands, getting thinner and thinner?
Tian Wenjun found a chair for Zhang Meilan and asked her to sit down and rest first. She took out some snacks and candies from her bag, peeled one and put it to Zhang Meilan's mouth.
"Grandma, I'll buy you some sweet candy. Try it. It's delicious."
Zhang Meilan couldn't help but smile and said, "My girl will eat first."
"Grandma, you eat first. I bought several kilograms and there's still plenty left."
"Hey, we don't know you guys are hungry outside at home, you should save money if you have money."
“I understand, grandma.
You sit down and rest first, I will cook for my parents."
Zhang Meilan smiled with relief, thinking that this girl was not raised in vain and they were enjoying great fortune with her.
On the chopping board was a large piece of noodles that Zhang Meilan had rolled out. Zhang Meilan reminded them, "Cut the noodles, stir-fry some potatoes with the meat sauce, and cook some stew. These few days are the hardest in the year, so I rolled out some white noodles for them so that they can have a good meal."
"Okay, grandma, just sit there and give me the rest of the food."
Tian Wenjun cut the potatoes, heated the oil in the pan, added the臊子 and stir-fried it, then put in the potatoes and stir-fried for a while, then added water and boiled. After the potatoes were soft, added MSG and soy sauce for color before taking them out of the pan, then sprinkled with the chopped leeks in advance, and the simple stew was ready.
After the stew was out of the pot, Tian Wenjun did not mind the trouble and took out some pickled vegetables and cut some cold dishes for them and served them on plates.
These days, the only vegetables in the yard that can be eaten are green vegetables. It will take another ten days or half a month to plant cucumbers and tomatoes.
On their way back, Tian Yuhu and Wang Yulian heard that Chen Baoguo had returned.
They had wondered in their hearts whether their daughter would come back, but they hadn't heard from anyone else, and they were afraid of being disappointed if they thought too much, so they didn't think much about it.
When they were almost at the door, Wang Yulian couldn't help but ask Tian Yuhu: "Do you think our Wenjun will come back?"
Tian Yuhu took a deep breath and said, "I really can't say for sure about this matter. Let's go home and ask Brother Chen at his house."
Wang Yulian nodded. This was the only way.
As soon as the two entered the yard, they heard someone talking in Zhang Meilan's room. When they listened carefully, the voice sounded familiar.
Wang Yulian said, "Mom, we are back. Are there any relatives at home?"
After Wang Yulian finished speaking, Tian Wenjun opened the door curtain and called out "Mom" with a smile.
Wang Yulian was so shocked that she was speechless.
"Girl, you're back too?"
"Yes, Mom, Baoguo is getting married, so I came back to help and visit you guys.
I bought clothes for you and just asked grandma to try them on.
Mom, take a look, do the clothes I bought for grandma look good?"
Tian Wenjun helped Zhang Meilan out of the room. Zhang Meilan was wearing a navy blue coat on the upper body, black trousers on the lower body, and a pair of cloth shoes on her feet.
Putting on new clothes, I look much more energetic.
Wang Yulian smiled and said, "It looks great. Your grandma will be happy for several months."
Zhang Meilan laughed and said, "Of course I am happy that my eldest grandson bought me a bottle of wine."
Tian Wenjun smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, there are some for you and Dad too. Do you want to eat first or try on the new clothes first?"
Wang Yulian was also happy, but no one could understand her sadness at not being able to raise a child.
Tian Wenjun was raised by her with great difficulty, and she treated her like her own son, holding her in her hands for fear of dropping her, and holding her in her mouth for fear of melting her.
When she raised her, she really never thought about asking her to repay her in any way, but now that she is back and bought clothes for them, Wang Yulian couldn't help crying.
No one can understand this feeling.
Tian Yuhu said: "If you have money, buy clothes for yourself, why buy clothes for us?
We have clothes, food and drink at home, but you have to pay for everything outside."
Tian Wenjun smiled and said, "Dad, have you forgotten that I'm working outside for a living?"
Tian Yuhu said: "My daughter has made great progress."
Tian Wenjun took out the clothes she bought for them and stuffed them into their hands: "Mom and Dad, try them on quickly."
Tian Yuhu had been working in the fields recently and was sweating a lot. He said, "I'll take a shower tonight and try again."
Wang Yulian held the clothes in her hands and looked at them over and over for a long time. Her rough hands touched them carefully again and again.
Her daughter bought her a white shirt and pants made of the most popular velvet material, but she was reluctant to wear them.
She is truly a blessed person.
Wang Yulian also smiled and said, "I'll take a bath tonight and try again."
She couldn't bear to part with such nice clothes.
Tian Wenjun smiled helplessly, but she felt more sad in her heart.
"Mom and Dad, let's eat first. I'll lie down."
Tian Yuhu moved the dining table from the kitchen to under the eaves, and Wang Yulian placed the seasoning bowls and small vegetable plates on it.
After the noodles in the pot were cooked, Tian Wenjun took them out, scooped up the sauce and served them on the table.
A family of four sat at the table, having a great time.
…
When Chen Kaifang and his wife came back, the food was already on the table.
As soon as the old couple entered the door and saw He Damei, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
This girl looks really festive.
Zhang Cuiyi asked, "You are the beautiful girl, right?"
He Damei smiled openly and said, "Mom and Dad, my name is He Damei."
The word "Mom and Dad" made Zhang Cuiying smile even more happily.
"You must be tired from the journey, why didn't you take a rest?"
"I'm not tired. I slept a lot in the car."
Chen Kaifang asked, "Are your parents okay at home?"
"Dad, everything is fine at home."
Chen Kaifang and Zhang Cuiying were very satisfied with their new daughter-in-law, who was bold, sweet-spoken and hardworking. This was the daughter-in-law they had dreamed of finding in their dreams.
Wenjun really introduced a good girl to my husband.
Chen Baoguo said: "Mom and Dad, it's time to eat."
Zhang Cuiyi didn't see Tian Wenjun, so she asked, "Where's your sister-in-law?"
"She has prepared food for Uncle Tian and Aunt Wang, so let's eat first and don't wait for them."
Zhang Cuiyi said, "Okay then."
The family sat at the dinner table. Zhang Cuiying asked He Damei to eat more. He Damei didn't feel uncomfortable at all and just felt like she was at home.
The old couple were not as distant as she thought, and the atmosphere in their home was quite good.
Zhang Cuiqi advised, "Baoguo, kill a chicken for Damei this afternoon."
This is the custom here. When an important person comes to their home, the highest etiquette is to kill a chicken for the person to express a grand welcome.
Chen Baoguo said: "I will kill him after I finish my meal."
He Damei said: "No thanks, Mom and Dad, we are all family, there is no need to be so polite."
Zhang Cuiying said: "We are going to kill you. You followed Baoguo all the way to come here, so we have to love you like our own daughter.
There will be many hard days ahead, so this chicken should be killed."
He Damei smiled, and Chen Baoguo said, "That's right, Mom is right."
He Damei said, "Mom and Dad, I'll go to the fields with you this afternoon."
