Chapter 158 Back



Zhao Suqin only has eyes for her family, and her favorite is Zhao Yahe, her niece.

Although her so-called brother had no blood relationship with her and was just an adopted son, she wanted to move all the good things of the Feng family to the Zhao family.

Even her own son Feng Anchen became a tool for her to win favor from her mother and brother.

But later on, her fate was not good.

It was this young man in front of him who personally sent his mother Zhao Suqin to a mental hospital.

Thinking of this, Shen Mingxi suddenly shuddered.

Feng Anchen naturally had no way of knowing that Shen Mingxi was thinking about their first life. He thought that his silence and coldness just now had frightened Xiaoxi. He exhaled, letting the coldness dissipate little by little, and reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth, "Xiaoxi, you are right."

Shen Mingxi bit her lip and finally softened her voice, "Let's go quickly, they are waiting for us to have dinner together."

This young man, no matter in which life he lived, had never done anything to let her down.

There was no need for her to be on guard against him.

It seemed that both of them had figured it out. They smiled at each other, and walked quickly in the night towards the Shen family compound.

Only when she saw the two people coming back did Chen Li breathe a sigh of relief and quickly started eating.

The Shen family had a large population, so they specially made a long dining table and four long stools. They did not eat on the kang like other families did. After all, the kang table was too small to accommodate so many people.

When the two people came in, the table was already steaming hot.

There is also a small door between the kitchen and the dining area, so meals can be brought directly in during the winter.

There was enough firewood and Chen Li was a capable person. Moreover, she didn't have to work in the fields now, so she could take care of everything at home and outside.

And Grandma Mu is also a person who can't sit still.

Especially since there were two more young men to eat at home, Chen Li and Grandma Mu specially pickled a large jar of sauerkraut, as well as seven or eight jars of pickles of different sizes.

If you take a little of each, you can fill half a table.

In the middle were two large pots of fragrant rabbit meat stewed with potatoes, and next to them were several plates of pickled vegetables. For dinner, there was stewed sorghum rice. In today's Lanbei County, rice is still a rare commodity. Only those who eat rations during festivals can get two kilograms of rice.

Sorghum rice is a bit rough, but Feng Anchen and Li Qing have gotten used to eating it.

After Chen Li sat down, she asked worriedly, "Xiaoxi, how is Xiaoliu?"

Shen Jiawen gave Shen Mingxi a look without saying anything.

Shen Mingxi understood what Chen Li was worried about, and she hurriedly said, "It's okay. Aunt Wu wanted to hit her, but was stopped by Brother Anchen. Later, she was allowed to enter the house. By the way, Mom..."

Shen Mingxi changed the subject and asked, "Shouldn't my dad and the others be back soon?"

Chen Li was stunned. Yes, he had been out for many days. It was time for him to come back, right?

At this moment, the sound of a car suddenly came from outside the yard.

Goudan reacted the fastest. He jumped up from the stool nimbly, climbed onto the kang, put his hands on both sides of his eyes, and leaned on the glass to look outside.

Then I heard the sound of Shen Yu knocking on the door.

Then, a person jumped over from the outside of the low wall. It was Shen Qingshan who couldn't wait any longer.

While running towards the house, he shouted excitedly, "Mom, Mom, we are back."

Feng Anchen and Li Qing looked at each other, and then looked at Shen Mingxi at the same time. This little girl has an amazing mouth.

The warehouse is also quite large.

The Shen family was not well-off, and there was nothing much in the warehouse except some large and small jars of pickles, which would be moved into the house in winter.

The rest of the space is empty, just right for storing the goods that Shen Yu and Shen Qingshan brought back from South City.

Fortunately, there were many strong laborers in the family, and with the strong man Shen Qingshan, a truckload of goods was moved in quickly.

Because the truck driver can't go back tonight. Besides, the transportation fee is the transportation fee for delivering the goods from such a far distance, but he still has to provide them with a meal anyway.

Chen Li and Shen Mingxi hurried to the kitchen.

Grandma Mu set up the dining table and then placed a small kang table on the kang.

Chen Li had never been so anxious to entertain guests. Shen Mingxi walked around the kitchen, pretended to rummage around in the corner, took out three cucumbers from the space, turned around and held them in his hand, and said happily, "Mom, there are three more cucumbers here, you didn't even notice, just right to make fried eggs for them."

Chen Li was stunned. Are there three cucumbers left? How could she not know? But she didn't ask in detail, maybe she didn't see it.

After Chen Li washed the cucumbers, Shen Mingxi had already beaten five eggs. Soon, a large plate of eggs and cucumbers was ready.

The golden eggs paired with green cucumber slices whetted the appetites of the people who had been sleeping in the open air on the journey.

After all, it was already very late and there was no time to make any more stews, so Chen Li fried some shredded potatoes and some stir-fried cabbage with peppers, and added a large pot of rabbit meat and potatoes, which filled the table.

Chen Li said to the truck driver a little embarrassedly, "Driver, I didn't know you could come back today. There's not much food at home, so I'll just have one bite."

The truck driver didn't expect to see rabbit meat on the table of this country family.

And the smell made him hungry, and he said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you are too polite. I am sorry to bother you so late at night."

Shen Yu saw that the food was already prepared on the table.

Although there is no preference for boys over girls in my family, there are more men tonight and they can just fill up the table.

So, Grandma Mu took Chen Li and others to eat at the kang table.

He said to the driver, "Brother, don't be polite. You have been working hard these days. Sit down and eat. The kang in the west room has been heated. We can all have a good rest today."

Feng Anchen glanced at Shen Yu and thought to himself, Uncle Shen seemed to have brought a lot of goods to Nancheng this time.

I didn't expect him to be so brave and actually brought back a whole car.

He thought to himself, if the things don't sell, he should think of some way to help.

After all, this is Uncle Shen’s first time doing business, and we can’t let him suffer any setbacks.

We must let him get off to a good start.

At this time, apart from the cabbages, all the vegetables in the fields are grown, and the green cucumber slices are the most popular.

Although Shen Mingxi could secretly give some vegetables to Goudan and Yaya every now and then, it was still secretive after all. Seeing that her garden was full of vegetables and there were only potatoes, cabbages and radishes at home, Shen Mingxi felt uncomfortable.

Moreover, these cucumbers taste great, different from those in the vegetable garden.

The truck driver who ate it praised it again and again and asked where he could buy it. When he found out it was not for sale, he was quite disappointed.
