Chapter 495: Leave
Liu Yinyin nodded and said, "That's enough, sister-in-law. When I have time, I will send the things to my friend."
Zhou Xiaomei smiled and said, "I want to exchange some things to supplement my household expenses. Fabrics, enamel basins, enamel cups, etc. are all fine."
After Zhou Xiaomei left, Liu Yinyin prepared lunch.
There are more vegetables at home, so we can prepare a more substantial lunch.
Chicken stewed with mushrooms, boiled meat, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised fish, steamed crab, and mapo tofu.
I saved the wild mushrooms that Zhou Xiaomei gave me for dinner.
The staple food is white flour steamed buns.
For the triplets, Liu Yinyin made steamed minced pork and chicken egg custard for them.
Now, several children no longer drink milk during the day, so Liu Yinyin finds different ways to make delicious food for them every day.
The triplets are about one and a half years old, and their height and weight are no worse than other children of the same month.
Near noon, Gu Cheng drove Liu's father and mother to their home.
On the way, I also picked up Gu Yanyan and had lunch at home.
To be honest, the triplets can be said to have been raised by Jiang Cuihua alone, so there is no need to say much about their affection.
Jiang Cuihua hadn't seen the triplets for several months and missed them very much.
At this moment, he was holding several children tightly.
Liu Yinyin reached out to take the bag from Liu Laifu's hand, and Gu Cheng's hands were also busy, holding a large suitcase bag in each hand.
Liu Yinyin blushed and said, "Mom and Dad, why did you bring so much luggage with you? It will be so inconvenient on the road."
Liu Laifu: "These are all things for you brothers and sisters. Your mother wants to take this and that, and she wants to move her entire home here."
Jiang Cuihua said angrily, "Didn't you say anything when I was packing my things?"
This is what parents do, they always think about their children in everything.
Gu Cheng put away his luggage bag and said, "Mom and Dad, shall we eat first?"
"Alas." Jiang Cuihua was delighted to see her daughter and her family. During the meal, she couldn't help but grumble, "This place is not as good as where you lived before. It's too remote."
Not only is it remote, the house we live in is not as good as the original small building.
Of course, compared to ordinary people’s houses, it is definitely much better.
Liu Yinyin nodded: "Yes, eating seafood here is not as convenient as on the island."
The town’s supply and marketing cooperative also supplies fresh seafood every day, but it is not as cheap as on the island and the quality is not as good.
"Work is the most important thing." Liu Lai Fu thinks differently from them. Food and shelter are not as important as work.
Jiang Cuihua glanced at him and said, "Of course I know. I was just grumbling a few words. I didn't say this place is bad."
After lunch, Gu Cheng went to work in the army.
After a few days of hard work, Liu Yinyin originally wanted Jiang Cuihua and Liu Laifu to
Jiang Cuihua packed up the things she brought. Although the Liu family's conditions were not very good, the couple both loved their daughter.
He brought a lot of miscellaneous things for Liu Yinyin.
It’s similar to what I sent before, dried vegetables, dried wild mushrooms, dried spring bamboo shoots, bacon, sweet potato vermicelli, sweet potato flour, and honey.
Liu Yinyin also accepted everything that was offered to her. If she couldn't finish some food, she would sell it to the system.
Jiang Cuihua divided the things into two parts, and the larger part was given to Liu Yinyin.
In addition to Liu Yinyin's share, there were also a few things given to her by Huang Xiaoyue.
As for Brother Liu, he is alone and can't give him anything.
Jiang Cuihua packed up her things and muttered, "Your sister-in-law wanted to come with us, but I persuaded her to come."
If Sister Liu wants to visit her relatives on the island, that's fine, but I'm afraid she only knows that Sister Liu has a job...
Jiang Cuihua was worried that she would make a noise.
Anyway, both the second brother and his wife have jobs.
If you don't know him, you can only envy him. But if you know him, and he's your brother...
It is impossible that Mrs. Liu didn't have any thoughts in her mind.
Liu Yinyin pondered and said, "Mom, my sister-in-law will know sooner or later."
Liu Yinyin was not worried about anything.
They are in the army, so they are not afraid of Mrs. Liu causing trouble.
"I know." Jiang Cuihua sighed, "You said it was because of this. Your sister-in-law will definitely blame us two old people for being biased."
Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "It's wrong for the eldest sister-in-law to think so. If we talk about who is at a disadvantage, it's the third brother's family that suffers the most."
After all, Brother Liu is a working man, but Liu Mingyuan and his wife are different. They both work in the village to earn work points.
However, Huang Xiaoyue did not want to leave her hometown, so she did not accept their help.
Thinking of her young daughter-in-law, Jiang Cuihua said with relief: "After all, your third sister-in-law is still sensible."
It’s no wonder that the two old people are willing to follow the third brother’s family. If it were Mrs. Liu, when they get old, they would have to worry about even having one more bite of food.
Liu Yinyin was too lazy to care about Mrs. Liu's affairs, so she cleaned up the room for Jiang Cuihua.
Jiang Cuihua felt that the environment of the family compound was not very good, at least not as good as that on the island.
Liu Lai Fu doesn't think so. Apart from anything else, vegetables can be grown in the yard.
For them, it is much more convenient to eat vegetables. I heard that the army will also give private plots to their families...
Liu Yinyin explained: "The private plot is quite far away, and Gu Cheng and I both don't have time to take care of it, so we gave it to Zhou's wife next door to plant. She wants to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes, and then give me 30% of the profits."
Jiang Cuihua nodded: "Taking care of a few children is already tiring enough for you, how can you have the time to take care of the vegetable garden?"
It's a pity to waste the land, but there's nothing we can do about it.
"By the way..." Jiang Cuihua was thinking about her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren on the island.
"Your father and I want to go to the island in a couple of days to visit your eldest and second brothers."
Liu Yinyin had expected this: "I'll go with you guys. I also want to see the island."
Jiang Cuihua had no objection: "Okay, let's go together."
With Jiang Cuihua and Liu Laifu helping to take care of the children, Liu Yinyin felt much more relaxed.
I was going to the island, so when I sent Gu Yanyan to school the next day, I asked Teacher Zhang for three days off.
The school is closed only on Sunday.
Today is Wednesday. If I take three days off, plus Sunday, I will have four days off.
One trip to the island is enough.
Gu Yanyan asks for leave every other day. If it were any other child, Teacher Zhang would have been unhappy a long time ago.
Gu Yanyan is different. Although this boy is sensible, he is also smart.
But, his mind is not on studying at all. His purpose of coming to school is to make friends and have fun.
The little guy is very playful.
He was young and Teacher Zhang did not expect too much from him.
On the way home, Liu Yinyin smuggled out two bags of White Rabbit milk candy, two bags of brown sugar, two bags of red dates, and two bags of snacks.
Bring it to Liu Ersao and Zheng Qiangwei tomorrow.
Having been away for so long, I don’t know how Zheng Qiangwei and her girlfriend Yang Zishan are doing.
