Chapter 0097: Visiting In-Laws (Sharing Life with Interstellar People)
"It's okay to have more masters, as long as it doesn't affect your work with your current master."
Liu Guoxiang glanced at her husband and said softly to her second son, "Don't talk about anything else in front of your current master."
Yi Rongquan felt more confident after hearing his mother's words, but he was still hesitant. "Mom, I'm worried that this might be disrespectful to my current master."
"After all, it wasn't easy for him to teach me for the past two years."
Liu Guoxiang: "I didn't ask you not to give birth to him."
"I just want you to have another powerful master to teach you some skills. Do you think you will lose respect for your current teacher now that you have a new one?"
"That's right, you silly boy, who taught you these rigid principles?"
Yi Zhongxiang was so angry at his second son that he laughed, "Your cousin can help you find a new and powerful master. That's your blessing, kid. Why are you still making excuses?"
Pei Mengchen also smiled, "Full text, aunt understands your concerns."
“But there’s no end to learning technology.”
"I heard from your parents that your level of master is so high that your aunt can tell without even seeing you."
"The master that your aunt hired for you is a national prodigy. If you can learn even half of what he has, it will be enough for you to live on for the rest of your life."
"This is not disrespectful to your current tailor. On the contrary, it can improve your tailoring skills and those of your tailor, and help you gain a better foothold in the future."
"Besides, if your current master knew that you wanted to learn more skills, he would surely understand you."
Yi Rongquan thought about it and felt that what his aunt said made sense. He nodded and said, "Okay, aunt, please find me a good master."
Yi Zhongxiang nodded aside: "That's right, it's always good to learn more skills."
"All the land at home has been expropriated. With no land to farm and no classes to attend, won't you have to rely on yourself to learn skills and earn money to support yourself and your future wife and children?"
"From now on, I can let you make our clothes. Maybe we can even expand our business outside."
The family chatted and laughed, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
At this time, Yi Rongqi and Ran Qiaojun also brought the wine and soda, and everyone started pouring wine and soda, preparing to enjoy this sumptuous dinner.
After dinner, Pei Mengchen took Yi Rongkun to the largest drying dam on the mountain, and then whispered:
"Comrade Rongkun, my aunt is here this time because she wants to discuss something with you."
Yi Rongkun nodded, having already guessed something in his mind. It must be related to the interstellar live broadcast system on him.
She said obediently: "Aunt, if you have anything to say, just tell me. I will listen."
Pei Mengchen continued, "Right now, they're discussing what to trade with Interstellar, so let me tell you so that everyone doesn't worry."
"With so many food factories across the country, they must be able to produce enough food for the audience in the Star Live broadcast room."
"Then it will depend on how hard you and Tongtong work."
Yi Rongkun listened carefully and did not interrupt Pei Mengchen.
"However, this matter is too special. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, a large warehouse will be built in the park."
"The finished products produced by food factories across the country will be placed directly in the warehouse, and I will personally take you to the warehouse to process those foods."
Pei Mengchen said with confidence, "We will ensure your safety."
"Also, before you do anything in the future, it's best to tell me or your parents first, so that others don't know your secrets."
Yi Rongkun felt Pei Mengchen's concern and nodded, "Aunt, I understand. I will be careful."
Pei Mengchen was very pleased to see that Yi Rongkun was so sensible.
She patted Yi Rongkun's small shoulder and praised him, "You are such a good boy. If you have any difficulties or ideas in the future, you can tell your aunt."
"Don't worry, auntie, Rongkun knows."
Yi Rongkun smiled happily and said, "The audience in the live broadcast room are very happy now after hearing what you said."
Star Live Room: [Yes, yes, yes, we are naturally happy to know that our ancestors worked hard for our stomachs.]
[Whatever our ancestors want, just tell us at any time and we will find a way to prepare it for you.]
【Hohoho, finally we can get food. I hope our ancestors can prepare it soon.】
I wonder how big the warehouse our ancestors prepared will be. I'm really looking forward to it.
The StarCraft live broadcast room was bustling with activity, with comments flashing by at a rapid speed.
Yi Rongkun looked at the comments with a bright smile on his little face.
After watching for a while, she turned to Pei Mengchen and said, "Aunt, do you know how enthusiastic they are now?"
Pei Mengchen smiled and shook his head: "I don't know, I can't see."
"Oh, I forgot."
Yi Rongkun smiled sheepishly, "I'll read a few paragraphs to you, just listen."
"Okay."
Pei Mengchen looked at her lovingly, "Aunt, listen."
So Yi Rongkun picked up a few comments and read them to her.
After reading it, she asked, "Aunt, how are they? Aren't they very interesting?"
"Yeah, it's very interesting."
Pei Mengchen smiled and replied, "This also shows that what we are doing is very meaningful."
"Uh-huh."
Yi Rongkun nodded vigorously, "We are doing something very meaningful, ensuring that future generations will have enough food and drink."
Pei Mengchen reached out and rubbed her little head. "By the way, little sister, tell your aunt what kind of food do the viewers in the live broadcast room want us to provide the most?"
Yi Rongkun tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, "They just want food, food, all food."
"They need anything they can eat. Since interstellar food is scarce, they usually only rely on nutritional supplements to fill their stomachs."
"Of course, it would be best if we could send various specialty cakes and pastries, as well as traditional noodles, such as dumplings and buns."
"Small quantities and large portions so they can all get a share."
Pei Mengchen nodded, "Well, these are not difficult to prepare."
"By the way, you said the share is large..."
"There are just so many people watching the live broadcast, hundreds of billions of them. It's too much and there's not enough to share."
Pei Mengchen: “…” So many people!
Sure enough, the amount should be smaller.
No wonder the food sent by the Yi family today was all in small packages.
It turns out that it was to allow more people to eat it.
"Okay, let's go back."
Pei Mengchen led her to the dam and said, "Aunt needs to inform the higher-ups that we need to make small packages instead of the big ones we used to make."
Afterwards, the former Tongxing Village, now the Tongxing Park, looks different every day.
In just one week, Tongxing Primary School moved to spacious and bright classrooms.
The tables and chairs are the standard ones found only in city schools.
On the 14th day of the 10th lunar month, Yi Rongkun and his sister asked for leave from school, and the whole family, including Ran Qiaojun and Pei Mengchen, went to the home of Yi Ronghui's eldest sister.
Yi Ronghui married into a village in the next county, about fifteen kilometers away from the Yi family, and the road was full of small roads.
You can only go there on foot.
Pei Mengchen and Ran Qiaojun exchanged glances, smiled and said nothing.
Just follow them. They are relatives of the Yi family. Those who should leave should leave, right?
Liu Guoxiang left his home to the care of Yi Zhongju and others, and set off with his family of more than ten people.
It took almost two hours to get there.
"Yi Yaoniang, your family is here."
As soon as the family arrived at Yujia Bay, people in the bay shouted loudly towards the Zheng family.
Yi Ronghui, who was making lunch with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law in the kitchen, heard her neighbor's shouting and ran out with a smile.
Seeing the whole family was there, he was even more delighted: "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Big Sister Mou..."
"Sister (eldest aunt)."
When the younger ones saw their relatives, they quickly spoke up to greet Yi Ronghui.
"Hey, it's good that you all came. I was worried that some of you might stay home."
As she spoke, Yi Ronghui went straight to her little sister: "Come here, little sister, let me hold you."
"Sister, I'm already this big, I don't need to be held."
Behind Yi Ronghui, her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law and their entire families came out to greet her in-laws and her natal children.
"Brother Zheng, Brother Zheng, hello, sister-in-law."
Among them, Zheng Laoyao is the eldest brother-in-law of the Yi family, so the neighbors in their bay call her Yi Yao Niang.
"Why didn't my mother-in-law come yesterday?"
The Zheng family's grandmother was an old lady with bound feet. She was very neat and capable. She reached out and took Liu Guoxiang's hand, "How are you feeling?"
"I heard Ronghui say you were sick a while ago. Are you okay now?"
"Thank you, mother-in-law. My health has improved a lot. I'm not like before, always feeling dizzy and listless."
Liu Guoxiang was in a very good mood when he saw his relative. "Now I have energy to do anything. I don't need to work for a while and then take a break."
She heard from her eldest daughter that her mother-in-law was very kind to her and often secretly cooked eggs for her to nourish her body.
With such a good mother-in-law, as a mother, it is natural for her to protect her for her daughter.
"Oh, it's fine if you're here, why are you carrying so many things?"
Over there, the eldest sister-in-law of the Zheng family took the gift from the guest and said with a polite smile, "You came at the right time. Go home and sit for a while. I'll cook a few dishes and we'll be ready to eat."
"Just keep it simple."
Yi Zhongxiang said hurriedly, "The whole family missed Hui, so we brought them all here. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
The eldest brother of the Zheng family laughed hurriedly: "Oh, why did you say that, Uncle Yin? It would be great if you all came. If you all didn't come, I would be worried that my brother would be ignorant and offend you."
"No, no, Brother Zheng is very nice. He helps us with a lot of work when he comes to our house."
Yi Ronghua continued, "My sister is at your house. Thank you for taking care of her."
"Brother, what are you talking about? Ronghui married into our Zheng family, so she is naturally a member of the Zheng family. Family members should take care of each other."
The eldest sister-in-law of the Zheng family was listening at the side and also interrupted with a smile, "That's right, her mother is hardworking and capable. Our whole family likes her very much."
"Come on, don't stand outside, come inside and sit down. Her mother-in-law, you stay with my uncle and mother-in-law and talk. I'll go cook two more dishes."
"Grandma (as she calls the child), you stay outside and talk to my mother-in-law and the other sisters-in-law. Just call Yingying from the kitchen to help me light the fire."
As he said this, he called his seven-year-old eldest daughter and went into the kitchen.
Mother-in-law Zheng looked at her sensible daughter-in-law, smiled with satisfaction, took Liu Guoxiang's hand, and the two walked into the house side by side.
The eldest brother of the Zheng family stayed with Yi Zhongxiang the whole time, inviting his uncle to sit down, serving him tea and water while chatting about family matters. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
Yi Ronghui was surrounded by several children who asked her questions. She patiently answered them one by one, with a happy smile on her face.
As he was speaking, Liu Guoxiang remembered that there were two important people who had not been introduced to the child, so he hurriedly introduced Pei Mengchen and Ran Qiaojun to his eldest daughter's family.
When everyone heard that the mother-in-law still had relatives on her biological father's side, they were all happy for her.
He also quickly greeted the two young girls and politely asked them to sit in important seats.
Yi Zhongxiang, the eldest brother of the Zheng family, and the youngest brother of the Zheng family sat at the eight-immortals table in the main hall, smoking and chatting about the latest news in the village and the recent situation of the two families.
Yi Rongying took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help Zheng's sister-in-law, busying around in the kitchen and preparing lunch.
After a while, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen.
Some dishes that require time to stew or steam are now cooked to the perfect temperature, so Zheng Da Ge and Zheng Lao Yao serve them on the table.
There were three eight-person tables in the Zheng family's main hall, with six servings of each dish, two on each table.
Soon, three tables were filled with food.
The eldest brother of the Zheng family quickly invited the guests to sit down and chat while eating.
The interstellar audience who watched the live broadcast of the era with the Yi family were envious of the two families getting along so harmoniously.
Especially when they smelled the aroma of the sumptuous dishes on the table, the audience in the live broadcast room wished they could get out of the screen and sit with their ancestors to eat.
Zheng Jiada brought out the last plate of vegetables from the kitchen with a big smile, and hurriedly called out to everyone: "Eat quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
"It's okay, we'll wait until sister-in-law comes and eat together."
"Come on, don't be polite, eat quickly."
Mother-in-law Zheng warmly invited everyone to take a seat, and she pulled her mother-in-law to sit at the top seat together.
The eldest son and another elder of the Zheng family invited Yi Zhongxiang to sit at another table.
The three large tables were packed with people. Everyone was eating and chatting, laughing constantly, and the whole house was filled with a warm and joyful atmosphere.
Especially the men's table, drinking and playing rock-paper-scissors, it was so lively.
The women and children put down their chopsticks early after eating and drinking their fill. After asking the elders at the table to eat slowly, they followed the Zheng children to play in the bay.
"Don't run too far, we need to go back later."
Yi Zhongxiang glanced at the child who ran out of the door and reminded him loudly.
"Why go back? It's a rare trip for you. It's not too late to stay here for a few days before going back."
When the Zheng family heard what Uncle Yin said, they hurriedly spoke to persuade him to stay, "Our two families are far away, Uncle Yin and Mother Yin don't come here often."
"I'll stay a few more days this time no matter what."
"That won't work. You guys also have to work in the fields, and we have things to do when we get home. We really can't keep you here."
Yi Ronghua took over, "Mom and Dad can stay for a few more days, we have to go back."
"What's the rush? If I say you can stay, then stay."
Mother-in-law Zheng also spoke up, "I'm sure the family has been entrusted to your sisters-in-law and uncles to help look after the house, so nothing will get lost."
"We can accommodate you here. There are so many houses in Dawanzi. We can arrange accommodation for you anywhere."
This was the first time Pei Mengchen and Ran Qiaojun encountered such a situation.
We just had lunch and you’re already leaving room for dinner?
Isn’t this too enthusiastic?
The audience in the StarCraft live broadcast room also shared the same idea: [No way, the ancestors are visiting relatives, not to mention that the whole family is out together, how many days can they stay?]
[Oh my god, aren't these in-laws a little too enthusiastic? ]
