In the evening, Chen Chuning picked chayote in the yard and stewed braised pork, picked tomatoes and fried tomato and eggs, roasted fresh peppers and made a bowl of roasted pepper sauce, and pulled up the juicy young cabbages in the yard and cooked a cabbage and pork soup.
When Father Shen and the three brothers of the Shen family walked to the gate of their own courtyard, they smelled a strong fragrance coming from the house.
When the father and his two sons saw the three dishes and one soup on the table, they were happy but also felt a little sad.
Ningning has indeed been raised by them to the point that she is somewhat ignorant of the sufferings of the world. If she continues to eat like this, she will have to eat everything she has even if she has a fortune!
After Father Shen felt pain, he still warned his three sons very seriously: "Don't say anything to your sister later, don't make your sister sad, understand?"
Not long after Shen Chuning was born, her mother died of postpartum infection.
From that time on, Father Shen, feeling guilty about his deceased wife, held his little daughter in his hands and doted on her.
The three brothers of the Shen family were also influenced by their father. They felt that their sister was weak and had a hard life since they were young. They held Shen Chuning in their hands for fear of dropping her, and held her in their mouths for fear of melting her.
As soon as Mr. Shen finished speaking, he saw Shen Chuning's small figure coming over from the kitchen with a large steamer of rice.
Nowadays, steamers are all made of solid wood, which is heavy, not to mention that they are filled with rice.
Shen Chu Ning's face turned red because she was trying too hard!
Shen Zhengxu hurried forward and took the steamer. "Ningning, if you can't move it, just call your brother. Why are you wasting your energy?"
Shen Chu Ning showed two dimples on her face and smiled sweetly, "Brother, I'm about to get married. I have to learn to do things on my own. I can't rely on you for everything!"
Shen Chuning's words made the Shen family's father and son feel mixed emotions.
Shen Zhengliang went to the kitchen to get dishes and chopsticks.
Father Shen returned to the room and took out half a bottle of wine from his collection.
"We are so happy today, let's have a few drinks together as a farewell to the Third Brother."
Father Shen poured wine for all three sons.
Shen Chu Ning looked at the clear liquid and was also a little curious, so he moved the bowl closer, “Dad, I want to taste some too.”
In the past, even if Father Shen doted on his daughter, he would never let her drink alcohol.
But it’s different now. My daughter is engaged, and today is her big day, so it’s okay to let her have a sip.
Father Shen poured a small sip for Shen Chuning.
Shen Chuning picked up the bowl and took a sip. As soon as she took a sip, she stuck out her tongue because of the spiciness and opened her mouth to exhale, "Spicy, so spicy!"
This made the Shen family's four members, father and son, all laugh.
Shen Chu Ning really didn't understand why the wine was so hard to drink, but every time his father, eldest brother and second brother drank it, they looked like they were enjoying it.
She looked at the bowls of the father and his two sons again. It was clearly the rice she cooked, half sweet potato and half rice.
But the bowls of my dad and brothers were filled with sweet potatoes, not a single grain of rice.
Moreover, when the father and his four sons picked up the dishes, they were very tacitly in sync. They did not touch the meat and eggs, but only ate the bowl of roasted pepper sauce, and occasionally picked up a piece of chayote in the braised pork, or the bok choy in the meat soup.
Shen Chu Ning stood up angrily. While the four Shen family members hadn't reacted yet, she picked up the rice spoon and put a large spoonful of white rice into each of their bowls.
He also scooped a spoonful of braised pork, a spoonful of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a spoonful of meat slices for each of the four people, father and son.
"Eat!" After she sat down, she puffed her cheeks and said in a very firm tone: "Dad, big brother, second brother, third brother, from now on, as long as I am still at home, I will eat whatever you eat. If you treat me specially again, I won't eat."
As soon as she got angry, the four Shen family members, father and son, immediately agreed to coax her by saying "OK, OK, OK".
The main reason was that she didn’t have much time left at home.
Getting married nowadays is not as particular as before.
In addition to Zhou Yubai's special status as a soldier, his vacation time is limited.
When Lin Shulan proposed yesterday, she had already made it clear that Zhou Yubai only had a month's vacation, so she asked them to just make some simple preparations and get the two children born within that month.
As for the thirty-six legs of the dowry furniture, we all live in the same village, so there is no need to be so particular. There is still time to buy them after the wedding banquet.
The next day, Shen Chuning got up early for the first time in her life. She got up when her father and brothers went out.
After getting up, she found the backpack at home, put it on her back and went to the city.
During the slack season, the village would use ox carts to go to the city.
But now it's the busy farming season, so she can only walk there by herself.
In the past, when she went to the city, she would ride in a ox cart during the slack season.
The first time she walked there, she realized how far it was from their village to the city. Her waist and legs were too thin, and she lacked strength. In addition, the burden on her chest and buttocks was too great, so blisters appeared on her feet from walking, and she had only walked half the way.
There was a piercing pain in the soles of his feet and the sun was scorching overhead. Shen Chuning could no longer walk and sat in the shade by the road to rest.
She took off her shoes and looked at the blisters on the soles of her feet, and subconsciously felt like crying.
She bit her lip and held it back, but her eyes became red and tears welled up in them.
When Zhou Yubai was riding his bicycle to the city, he saw from afar a girl sitting under the shade of a tree by the roadside. The girl was wearing a white shirt and her black hair was tied into a beautiful bow with a red hairband.
The little girl's eyes were red again, like a little white rabbit that had been wronged.
He stopped his bike in front of her and said, "Get on."
Shen Chuning, who was feeling sorry for his feet, suddenly heard a familiar voice. He looked up and saw Zhou Yubai's fierce and stern face.
"Oh." She responded obediently, stood up and wanted to sit on the back seat of the bicycle.
But she had no choice; the 28-style bicycle was too high, and she had blisters on the soles of her feet, which were so painful that she couldn't even stand on one foot.
I tried twice, but not only did I fail to sit on the bike, but because one of my feet was unstable, I fell straight to the ground...
"ah--"
Shen Chu Ning screamed in fear and subconsciously covered her eyes tightly with her hands to protect her face.
However, the imagined pain of close contact with the earth did not come.
Her body fell into a solid embrace, and a strong hand passed through her right armpit and embraced her slender waist, and the palm of the big hand even just touched the soft spot on her left side.
Her breathing stagnated and her little face instantly turned red.
Zhou Yubai had never understood a woman's body before. When he touched that soft flesh, his brain froze for a moment.
Because it felt so good, he even pinched it subconsciously.
When he realized what was happening, he let go in panic.
As if Shen Chu Ning was some kind of monstrous beast, he took several steps back before hesitatingly saying, "Comrade Shen, I'm sorry..."
After the man finished speaking, his face turned red from behind his ears to the base of his neck.
It's just that his skin is darker, so it's not obvious.
