After saying goodbye to Yan Fugui, Jia Dongsheng and Qin Huairu returned to the central courtyard and immediately saw the tall, long pile of firewood in front of their house.
Jia Dongsheng's eyes flickered. With so much firewood, his fireplace could finally burn vigorously.
Not to mention minus 30 or 40 degrees Celsius, even if it's minus 50 degrees Celsius, you can still play games shirtless in the house because it's warm.
Standing in the yard, Jia Dongsheng took a good look at the pile of firewood and nodded with satisfaction. They were all dry firewood that could be burned in the fireplace. They were not firewood newly cut from the mountain.
"Oh, sister-in-law, come in quickly. I have to have a drink with my father-in-law tonight."
He made good use of his father-in-law. Yan Fugui just said that Qin Huairu's father and Qin Jingru's father were both here.
Jia Dongsheng's father-in-law is of course Qin Jingru's father, but when he spoke to Qin Huairu, he directly said father-in-law and did not refer to any one in particular.
This means that the father-in-law he mentioned also includes Qin Huairu's father.
How could Qin Huairu not be happy when she heard this?
However, when Jia Dongsheng entered the house, he found that his two fathers-in-law were not in the house, but his wife, mother, and a little niece.
"Hey, Jingru, where is my father-in-law?" Jia Dongsheng sat directly next to Qin Jingru, put his arms around her waist, rubbed her belly, and felt the breath of his own child.
"After my parents and uncle delivered the things, they stayed for a while and then went home, saying that it would be dark if they didn't leave soon."
Qin Jingru looked very unhappy. She had been missing home for a long time. Her parents had come with great difficulty, but she wouldn't let them stay any longer. They took one look at her, found that she was fine, and left immediately, without letting her feel any relief from her homesickness.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't you stay for a moment?"
"Why didn't I stay? Not only me, my mom also tried to persuade me to stay, but she just wouldn't listen and insisted on leaving. It's so infuriating."
Qin Jingru's face was as plump as a bun, and Jia Dongsheng wanted to take a bite of it.
"Indeed, I stayed, but my in-laws said they had things to do at home, so I can't stay any longer and have to go back to work."
Jia Zhang also chimed in.
"It's okay. After you give birth, I'll send you back to Qinjiazhuang to stay for a few days."
After patting Qin Jingru's head, Jia Dongsheng comforted her for a while, which made Qin Jingru feel much better.
"By the way, have you eaten the candied haws? Are they delicious?" Jia Dongsheng changed the subject.
"It's delicious. It's so delicious."
When talking about this, Qin Jingru perked up, her eyes sparkling: "It's sour and sweet, I like it so much, I ate three in one go."
"Wow, Sangen, can your stomach handle it?"
"Of course I can bear it. I still want to eat, but I thought about what you said before going to work, so I held back and waited until tomorrow to eat."
Qin Jingru said with a smile: "Brother Dongsheng, can you make it for me after I finish eating?"
As she spoke, she leaned her head on Jia Dongsheng's shoulder and spoke coquettishly.
"No problem, I'll make as much as you want."
Suddenly, Jia Dongsheng remembered: "Oh, where are the chickens, ducks and geese that my father-in-law sent me? Let me see how they are and whether there is much meat. I will make one for you tonight."
"It's in the tank outside, can't you see it?"
Jia Zhang spoke.
"How can I look inside the tank?"
With that, Jia Dongsheng stood up and walked out.
In the winter in the north, every household has a jar to store frozen goods. Therefore, in the north, there is no need for a refrigerator or freezer in winter. A jar is enough.
The jar was covered with a lid, and on the lid was a rectangular bamboo curtain, on which were the candied haws made in the morning. It was clearly visible that seven strings of candied haws were missing from the bamboo curtain.
Qin Jingru ate three skewers, and no one knew who ate the other four. However, Jia Dongsheng didn't care. It was probably Jia Zhangshi and Xiaodang, or Xiaodang's friends.
He picked up the bamboo curtain and put it on the ground, then opened the lid of the jar. The jar was not very big, so four chickens, four ducks, and four geese filled the jar.
Jia Dongsheng took out a chicken, duck and goose respectively and examined them.
As soon as he touched the chicken, Jia Dongsheng had an idea in his mind. It was indeed a chicken raised specially. After cleaning it, it still weighed about three pounds.
Ducks are a little heavier than chickens, weighing about three and a half to four pounds. The largest is the goose.
A big goose weighs as much as a duck and a chicken combined, at least seven kilograms.
This is because they have only been raised for more than four months. If they are raised a little earlier next year, it will not be a problem for the geese to grow to ten kilograms, and the ducks can reach about five kilograms. As for the chickens, it will not be a problem to increase by one kilogram.
"Not bad, not bad."
Jia Dongsheng nodded in satisfaction and took a chicken to cook tonight. Just as he was about to close the lid of the pot, he heard a voice in his ear: "Brother Dong, why are there so many chickens?"
Because the chicken is at the top of the tank, outsiders would think the tank is full of chickens.
Turning around, Jia Dongsheng saw that it was Nan Yi and said with a smile, "Nan Yi, my father-in-law sent me twelve of them today, enough for me to eat for the whole winter."
"A gift from my father-in-law?"
Nan Yi widened his eyes. He was just planning to send something to his father-in-law, but he didn't expect that his father-in-law had already sent something to his son-in-law. Why was there such a big gap between him and Dong Ge, even though they were both sons-in-law?
"It must have been given by my father-in-law."
Although the chickens, ducks and geese were fed with the bran I gave to my father-in-law, I have to say that they were given by my father-in-law, so that I look more proud.
"Brother Dong, you are still the best."
Nan Yi couldn't help but give Jia Dongsheng a thumbs up, with a look of admiration on his face: "You've really figured out what it means to be a son-in-law to this extent."
"It's a pity, little brother, I still don't understand it. I wonder if Brother Dong can help me?"
"this......"
Jia Dongsheng had spent quite a bit of time with Nan Yi, and as soon as he stuck his butt out, he knew what he was going to do, so he acted a little hesitant.
"Brother Dong, my brother's happiness depends on you. You have to help me."
Nan Yi showed a flattering smile: "Just one, just one will do. Don't worry, I won't ask for it for nothing. I owe you a favor. When you need me, brother Dong, just tell me directly. If I don't agree, then I am an ungrateful person."
He didn't directly ask for money to buy it, which made Jia Dongsheng quite satisfied.
If Nan Yi asked for money right away, Jia Dongsheng would definitely not agree. Is he the kind of person who would be in trouble for that little bit of money?
Spend money?
Who are you blaming?
However, Jia Dongsheng would prefer Nan Yi to owe someone a favor. This guy is the kind of person who will definitely pay back the favors he owes, so the more favors he owes, the better.
There will always be a day when he can no longer pay her back, and then she will have to sell herself to him and work for him for the rest of her life.
A state banquet chef is well worth the investment.
