After Mr. Xu sent the man out, he felt a little sad when he saw his old brother's lonely back.
He knew that the old man wanted him to persuade his granddaughter, but the same thing applies: it is the granddaughter who is getting married, not her, and it depends on her own wishes.
In this regard, I can only apologize to my old brother. I can't force my granddaughter to be with someone she doesn't like, right?
He wasn't that senile. After all, she was his granddaughter, so he had to be considerate of her. Of course, some older people, for the sake of face and their so-called family authority, would force their children to do things they didn't want to do. There were many such people in the past, and I'm sure there will be more in the future.
But he is not so stupid. Some people become more confused as they get older, but of course some become more clear-headed.
As for the child brought back by my granddaughter, he seems to be doing well at the moment.
Zhang Hechen was busy over there, not knowing that the old man was gradually accepting him in his heart.
He worked all day, first setting up the oven for roasting duck, then tidying up the vegetable patch. The patch had probably been overwatered, so it was a bit watery. Fortunately, the parents knew to surround it with ridges to contain some of the water, otherwise it would have spread everywhere and caused more trouble.
I don’t know what the two elders were thinking. This is dry land. They can pour so much water every day and clear the land of puddles. It’s really amazing. It must take a lot of effort.
But looking at these two old people, they are very energetic and show no signs of fatigue at all. It is really rare.
After tinkering all day, the small oven was finally ready, but the celery patch hadn't been prepared yet. The next day, Zhang Hechen got up early to continue tidying up the vegetable patch and check on the oven.
The stove is pretty good. Although it is made of mud, it looks good after being roasted over the fire.
After all, he had learned to build mud walls in the village before, something many rural people could do. Later, when he joined the army, he also had to tinker with small projects in this area, so although this was his first time, it wasn't too difficult. After trying it two or three times, he finally got it right. Seeing that the stove was ready, he discussed buying ducks with Mrs. Yu.
Mrs. Yu smiled and said, "Duck? No problem, I'll go buy it. I haven't eaten duck for a long time, so I want to try it."
The main reason is that she is not good at cooking duck, but she is quite good at cooking chicken. She can make chicken soup and gourd chicken. As for duck, she knows what else can be made besides old duck soup.
When she heard Zhang Hechen was going to make roast duck, she was very curious and decided to watch him make it and learn how to make it so she could make it whenever her family wanted to eat it. Otherwise, saying duck is just old duck soup is not the right thing to do. Also, her family actually likes roast duck, so if she could learn how to make it, she could make it for them in the future.
Mrs. Yu went to buy a duck happily, and the old lady invited Zhang Hechen to drink some water and eat some fruit.
"Eat some fruit first, take a rest, and then go tinker with the vegetable garden." Seeing that the all-round Zhang Hechen had tinkered with a lot of things and had tidied up the vegetable garden well, and the vegetables planted before were growing very well, it was estimated that they would be ready to eat in a few days, so the old lady was particularly happy.
Through these things, she also saw that Zhang Hechen was a person who did things in an orderly manner. No matter how many things there were to do, he was very patient and handled them in an orderly manner.
