Su Xieqiu was afraid that Han Zhenyu and Lu Yiming had something to discuss, so she called the children to the kitchen to help.
Since the guests have come from so far away, they have to treat them well.
Lu Yiming looked around the small courtyard and sighed, "This place is really spacious. No wonder you two don't want to live in the city. The family compound is so small, how can it be as comfortable as here?"
"It's mainly because there are so many children. There's nothing we can do about it." Han Zhenyu pointed in the direction of the bathroom and said, "If you want to go to the bathroom, it's over there."
Lu Yiming nodded and went to the vegetable garden again.
He saw a red tomato, picked it up, put it in his mouth, took a bite, and said with enjoyment, "It's delicious."
Han Zhenyu laughed, "No, you look so relaxed, aren't you worried about your cousin at all?"
Lu Yiming finished eating the tomato, picked a cucumber, rubbed it with his hands, took a bite, and said casually:
"What's there to worry about? Anyway, the thing has already happened. That damn girl has been disobedient since she was a child. Her temper is the same as my second aunt. I get annoyed just by seeing her. It's better to let her suffer a little this time."
Han Zhenyu understood that Lu Yiming and his cousin probably didn't have a very good relationship. He probably came here in person for his second uncle.
………
Su Xiaqiu and Grandma Du prepared eight dishes and one soup.
The table was filled with crispy fish, pickled fish, sweet and sour pork, stir-fried pork with peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, braised spareribs, cold-mixed black fungus, stir-fried kidney beans, and a big bone and radish soup.
Lu Yiming also bought pork elbows and pig's trotters from the state-owned restaurant, but they were raw and difficult to stew. Su Xieqiu didn't cook them, planning to eat them in the evening or tomorrow.
Lu Yiming looked at the large table of food and expressed his gratitude to Grandma Du and Su Xieqiu.
"Grandma, sister-in-law, why are you cooking so many dishes? That's too polite. I'm planning to stay here for two more days. If you do this, I'll be embarrassed."
"Not much, not much. I don't know if it suits your taste." Grandma Du said with a smile.
She originally wanted to pick some food for Lu Yiming, but she was afraid that he would dislike it, so she had to give up.
"Grandma, I like all these dishes."
Lu Yiming picked up a piece of pickled fish, which was sour and spicy, leaving a lingering fragrance in his mouth. The taste amazed him.
Han Zhenyu asked him proudly, "How is it? Doesn't it taste good? This is my wife's specialty."
He praised: "It tastes really good. My sister-in-law's cooking skills are impeccable."
"If you like it, I'll make it for you tomorrow." Su Xieqiu took a pair of unused serving chopsticks and picked up two ribs for him. "Yiming, just treat it as your own home. Don't be polite."
Lu Yiming quickly extended the bowl over and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Chenchen, Haohao and Xuanxuan also greeted him warmly, and the meal was full of laughter.
Lu Yiming looked at the children sitting next to him. They all had good appetites, were not picky eaters, and did not turn over their plates randomly.
Although the meal was fast, it was not rude at all.
They swallow what they have in their mouths before speaking. They are polite, know the rules, and seem to be well-educated.
Although the twins talk a lot, they are not offensive at all and I often laugh out loud at their jokes.
During the meal, she introduced the dishes to him and said, "Uncle Lu, you're welcome. Eat more."
Lu Yiming sighed again that Han Zhenyu and his wife knew how to teach their children. All five children were so cute and sensible.
After dinner, Han Zhenyu asked Lu Yiming, "I don't have anything to do this afternoon, do you want to go to our back mountain?"
"Okay." Lu Yiming was very interested.
"Then I'll find a few people and we can go together to see if we can catch a rabbit and stew it?"
Han Zhenyu said to Chenchen, "Go call your Uncle Dashu and Uncle Leizi over here, and tell them not to go to work this afternoon, and go to the mountain with me."
Chenchen nodded and picked up his schoolbag, "Uncle Lu, I'm going to school. I'll talk to you in the evening."
"Okay, go ahead."
After Chenchen left, Lu Yiming asked in confusion: "Why do Chenchen and An'an call you uncle? Aren't they your children?"
Han Zhenyu said: "This is my friend's child. It's not convenient for them to bring him with them, so I asked my wife to help take care of him."
Lu Yiming was a smart man. He knew it was inconvenient to reveal the information when he spoke vaguely, so he tactfully stopped asking.
Han Zhenyu called Luo Jie and Zhao Yingchao again. Sun Dahan heard that they were going up the mountain, so he and his eldest son also joined. Together with Sun Dashu and Han Lei, there were eight people in total, so they were not afraid even if they encountered larger beasts.
Su Xieqiu was worried, so he pulled Han Zhenyu aside and said, "You should be more sensible and don't bring anyone into the mountains. Yiming is here to play for two days, so we can't let anything happen to him."
Han Zhenyu smiled and nodded, "Wife, I know, we'll just walk around nearby and go to the river, but not inside."
"Be careful with your steps and don't get bitten by snakes." Su Xieqiu reminded him again with concern.
"Okay." Han Zhenyu quietly pulled her hand while no one was paying attention, "Yiming bought a lot of things for the children, they are all on the kang, you and grandma will sort them out later."
"Why did you let them spend so much money? How are we going to return the favor?" Su Xieqiu glared at him in reproach.
She doesn't know about Lu Yiming's sister yet.
Han Zhenyu whispered, "There's no rush to return the gift. I'll talk about it when I get back in the evening."
Han Lei and Sun Dashu came with bows and arrows, and the rest came with machetes and shovels, and went to the back mountain in a mighty manner.
The twins looked at their backs and were almost crying with envy, but they were too young and their father would not let them go.
