"Oh, there are fried foods that are not tasty," the old man muttered and put the fried mushrooms in his mouth. The outside was crispy and the inside was a little hard and chewy.
"It's delicious, eat it quickly, or it will get cold soon."
"Dabao, the vegetables in your greenhouse have grown. When can we eat them?"
The old man doesn’t know how many times a day he goes into Chen Ye’s small greenhouse to check it out. The sudden touch of green in the vast white world can instantly make people happy.
"Grandpa can pick them if he wants to eat them. I think they are edible and quite tender." Glass is not cheap, and she didn't dare to build a very large greenhouse, so she built a small greenhouse of about ten square meters next to the kitchen.
Only the roof is made of glass, and the rest is made of bricks. However, there are not many complete bricks, most of them are half pieces, which makes them cheap to buy and does not require any approval.
Heating is almost entirely dependent on the stove in the kitchen. Fortunately, the stove in the kitchen is burning non-stop every day, and the vegetables grown in it are all very hardy. She dare not grow too delicate ones. After all, her greenhouse is too simple.
"Let's wait a little longer, the vegetables seem to be able to grow longer," the old man is thinking now, wanting to eat but not wanting to.
The old lady was unhappy: "Why are you so greedy? Wait until the New Year to get it and eat it."
"How long will it take? Won't the vegetables be old?" Aren't vegetables grown for people to eat? Doesn't he deserve to eat them? Why is this old woman so stingy?
Speaking of being stingy, the old man glanced at his granddaughter. Could it be that the old woman was infected by his granddaughter?
He couldn't tell whether his granddaughter was generous or stingy. She was willing to spend money on food and drinks, especially for the two old people. But for clothes and other things, this girl was reluctant to spend a penny. If anyone wanted to borrow money from her, the old man would probably have no chance.
Chen Ye put a mouthful of blood sausage into his mouth and squinted his eyes because of the delicious taste. The blood sausage made by Master Jin was very tasty. After eating it once last time, Chen Ye couldn't forget this blood sausage as much as the pork elbow.
Fortunately, Grandpa's cigarettes were really useful. Whenever there was something fresh and delicious, Master Jin would save some for her, allowing her to eat a lot of delicious food.
Chen Ye saw his grandfather looking at him, so he quickly swallowed what he had in his mouth and looked at his grandfather: "What's wrong, Grandpa? What do you want to say?"
The old man shook his head: "No, it seems you are eating deliciously."
"Grandpa, please try it. Master Jin's blood sausage making skills are amazing. It's delicious and has no weird smell at all."
"Okay, if you like it, eat more. If you like it, ask Chef Jin if he can make more. We'll pay you what you're owed."
Chen Ye shook her head: "No, as long as we can have a meal when Master Jin cooks it, it's fine." She didn't have the idea of having too much delicious food.
Cen Zixiang ate without even raising his head. When he returned tomorrow, he wouldn't be able to eat such a sumptuous meal for a long time.
Cen Zixiang ate in a hurry. Seeing Chen Ye getting anxious, he also quickened his eating pace and had no time to talk at all. The old man and the old lady looked at their grandchildren eating with relish, and unconsciously followed suit and ate a small extra bowl of rice.
Only when he was 80% full did Cen Zixiang slow down his eating, taking a bite of fried food and a sip of wine slowly. The wine made from the leaves tasted as good as grape juice.
He didn't really like drinking white wine, so he felt that drinking this juice was just right for him.
Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. The snow flakes kept dancing in the air and hit Xuan'er's face as she fell. Chen Ye and Xiao Wang were practicing boxing in the heavy snow. After they finished, each of them picked up a big broom and began to sweep the snow in the yard.
This is only in the city. The houses here are strong enough. If it were in the village, the first thing to do in the morning would be to clear the snow off the roof. Otherwise, with such heavy snow, the roof would collapse in no time.
The yard is so big that it is not an easy task to clean it. However, Chen Ye had no intention of touching the two yards opposite. The houses here are too big to accommodate everyone, so how could he really occupy them all?
I have never seen this mansion before, but the building does not look like a typical quadrangle building, it just looks like one courtyard next to another.
The place where Chen Ye lived at first seemed like a side hut. Just as Cen Zigu said, it was probably where servants lived, which was why it looked so cramped.
Chen Ye and Xiao Wang cleaned the snow from both ends separately. There was no need to clean the snow in the vegetable field, as it would be used to moisten the vegetable field when the snow melted next year. However, the snow on the aisle had to be cleaned up, as there were two elderly people at home. What if they fell down due to the slippery ground?
"Ye Zi, why do I hear someone knocking on your door?"
Chen Ye stopped what he was doing and listened carefully: "Really? Who's here? Why is he knocking on the door over there?"
The only people who often come to visit our house are those whom my grandfather knows, and they all know to come and knock on this door.
Since the old couple moved here, they rarely go to Chen Ye's house. They only go there to eat sometimes in winter. After all, it is comfortable to eat on the warm kang.
Chen Ye walked towards the gate, still muttering in his heart, how could he come to visit so early? It was only a few minutes into the day.
"Come on, come on, who is it?"
The four people standing outside the door looked at each other. This must be the only girl in their family, right?
Chen Ye opened the door and looked into the eyes of four strangers outside. It was only then that Chen Ye realized who these four people were. Aren't they the uncle and aunt, and the second uncle and second aunt in the photo that her grandmother showed her?
"Uncle, aunt? Uncle, aunt?"
"Hey, Ye Zi, do you know us?" Auntie agreed happily.
Chen Ye quickly made way to let four people in. These four people looked exhausted. Did they just get off the train?
Chen Ye stepped forward and took the bags from his aunt and second aunt. He just happened to see his uncle waving towards the entrance of the alley, and soon heard the sound of a car door opening and closing.
Chen Ye smiled and led the group into the yard. "Of course I know you. My grandparents showed me the family photos from the beginning. Are you new here?"
My second aunt was a passionate person and fell in love with the only girl in the family at first sight. The child was good-looking, with bright eyes, and she looked like a good child.
"That's great! We were afraid you wouldn't let us in because you didn't recognize us."
"That can't happen. Let's go inside and talk. It's cold outside."
After just two sentences, another young man appeared at the gate, but this young man was holding a lot of things in his hands. Chen Ye really didn't know this man. He should be the one who brought his uncle and the others here.
Chen Ye pushed open the door between the two houses: "I live here alone. My grandparents will move to the yard next door when the weather gets cold." All the houses on this side belonged to Chen Ye, and Chen Ye did not push down the wall for the time being.
