Chapter 244 I want to introduce my niece to He Xu
Turning around and seeing another child with three pieces in his bowl, she immediately got annoyed: "I was wondering why I didn't get any, it turns out someone else took too much."
The man ignored her, poked his child, and whispered, "Eat quickly."
Who cares what others say? It’s good enough to be able to eat meat. The other dishes also have a little meaty smell, which is much better than the meals they usually cook themselves.
The aunt who just spoke was so angry: "I have never seen such a shameless person."
"Okay, it's just a piece of meat. Why are you nagging about it?"
"Is it the meat's fault? They are all starving, just trying to fill the bowl."
Liu Shengnan heard the noise and turned around and said, "Oops, I didn't prepare enough. Come here, sister, we still have some."
The female comrade blushed and waved her hands quickly: "No, it's just that the child didn't get any and is crying for it."
Liu Shengnan kindly picked up two pieces and handed them to the female comrade.
He secretly glanced at Chen Tang and saw that she was eating as if it had nothing to do with her. He smiled and picked up two pieces to put in He Zhi's bowl: "She really looks like your father. You can be a good soldier when you grow up."
He Zhi was a bit of a germaphobe, and he saw with his own eyes that grandma sucked on the chopsticks when she picked up the food.
Xiao Wan quickly shrank back into her arms, her face full of confusion: "...Grandma Liu, I don't really like eating meat."
"It's really rare that there are still people who don't like to eat meat these days," Liu Shengnan said in surprise.
Chen Tang suppressed his laughter and said seriously, "Yes, he is like his father and doesn't like to eat meat."
Liu Shengnan was full of confusion, but didn't say much.
I wondered in my heart if this child was abused. What child doesn't like to eat meat? Could it be that Shen Tang deliberately didn't give him any, so he didn't dare to eat it?
After dinner, Liu Shengnan specially brought some snacks to He Zhi.
He Zhi took a biscuit and took a bite, and found that it was a little damp. Although he didn't like it, he still adhered to the principle of not wasting food, ran to his father, and stuffed the biscuit into He Xu's mouth.
As soon as He Xu took a bite of the pancake, he knew what the brat was up to.
Just throw all the bad food to him, right?
Teacher Zhu liked He Zhi very much: "Your child is very filial. He will give you food even if he doesn't want to eat it himself. Unlike my child, he would like to stuff the delicious food into his stomach in one go."
He Xu: "Indeed, he is filial."
It's just not him.
After feeding Shen Tang, He Zhi ran back and sat down next to him.
Liu Shengnan couldn't help but praise: "This child is really obedient. Come, Grandma Liu has some candy here. Grab a handful and put it in your pocket."
He Zhi looked up at his mother anxiously.
Chen Tang refused for him: "Thank you, auntie, this child is teething and can't eat too much sugar."
Liu Shengnan pouted. Chen Tang didn't love his son at all.
Don't even give the kids any candy.
Chen Tang sat for a while and then stood up and prepared to leave.
He Xu saw this and said goodbye to Commander Zhu.
He held Shen Tang's hand, picked up the child, and the two of them left talking and laughing.
Liu Shengnan was a little surprised: "They are such a good couple? They even hold hands?"
It doesn't feel like the couple has a bad relationship.
Xu Guifen kept telling her that they didn't have a good relationship.
The person next to him said, "Of course that's fine. They said they were childhood sweethearts, and Captain He chased her for a long time before he finally caught up with her."
"Captain He is so lucky. Chen Tang was a beauty in the art troupe back then. She was also a good writer and beautiful. I don't know how she maintained her skin, it's too white."
"We don't have the time, and they don't go to the fields."
"That's true. Look at how your waist is twisted. It's so thin. You don't look like someone who has given birth at all."
"Chen Tang is really not going to have any more children? Only one child is too few."
"At least there is a son. The one from the Li family gave birth to five daughters in a row and still wants to have more."
Liu Shengnan was still shocked that the couple had a good relationship.
She really thought that He Xu was a handsome boy. Just looking at his face could make her eat two more bowls of rice.
She also thought that if their relationship wasn't harmonious, they might get divorced one day, and at that time she would definitely introduce her niece to He Xu.
So what if it's a second marriage? He Xu seems to have a good future. If I can marry him, I might be able to become an official's wife in the future.
Liu Shengnan felt that she had missed a good nephew-in-law. She couldn't sleep at night and discussed with Commander Zhu in bed about Xu Guifen cheating on her. The relationship between the couple seemed good.
Teacher Zhu felt that his wife was really possessed by a demon: "Why do you care whether their relationship is good or not? Even if it is not, they still have children. How can they really get divorced?"
Liu Shengnan sighed: "That's right."
She will have to ask other people tomorrow. She always feels that Xu Guifen is fooling her.
In March, the rains fall and everything comes back to life.
Chen Tang asked Lin Xiao and Li Hong to go to the mountain to dig bamboo shoots and pick ferns.
After Lin Xiao gave birth to a daughter, she gave birth to a son.
Li Hong also gave birth to a son.
Each family has its own worries, but overall, life is pretty good.
There are a lot of people going up the mountain. Fern is also a favorite dish nowadays. It happened to be the rainy season, so Chen Tang also picked a lot of ground mushrooms.
Locals say it is thunder mushroom, which only appears after thunder and rain.
This thing was really hard to wash. Chen Tang's hands turned red and his eyes were blurry. He washed it seven or eight times before it was clean.
He Zhi didn't remember having eaten thunder mushrooms before. The little guy squatted beside the basin and asked a few questions from time to time.
"Mom, why do you have to wash it so many times?"
“Because of the mud.”
"Then why don't those bacteria need to be washed so many times?"
"Because mud doesn't grow in the bodies of those fungi, this grows in its body."
The little one was holding an umbrella for Shen Tang, and although she was a little tired, she still tried her best to keep her mother from getting wet in the drizzle.
After washing, Chen Tang took it to the kitchen to fry it. First, blanch it in water, then add oil, put some garlic in and stir-fry it with oil, and then pour in the thunder mushroom.
The fragrance burst out and Xiao Hezhi swallowed.
“It smells so good.”
Chen Tang fried a thunder mushroom and a bracken. The bracken would be a bit bitter if not handled properly, so she had already blanched it in water and soaked it in a basin for two hours.
There is some bacon at home, cut it into slices, put the bacon in and fry it first, then add garlic and dried chili peppers, and then put the fern in and fry together.
After cooking, she asked He Zhi to take a bowl and send one to her aunt.
Xiao He was so confused that he held the incense.
He took the bowl over with his short legs and came back to meet He Xu who was getting off work. The little guy told his father that Chen Tang had washed the thunder mushrooms many times today.
He Xu picked up the child and said, "What should I say if my mother's cooking is not delicious?"
"Even if it doesn't taste good, you have to say it's delicious because mom works hard to cook."
Xiao Hezhi had been taught many times that he should not waste food or complain that his mother's cooking was not tasty.
But he thinks his mother's cooking is delicious.
Grandma Zhang is reluctant to add too much oil, and He Zhi doesn't like to eat vegetables. Now Shen Tang has to add some oil when cooking vegetables, and he loves to eat them.
He Xu smiled with relief and pinched his little face: "If Daddy is not around, as the little man of the family, you have to help Mommy with more housework, okay?"
He Zhi nodded his head. He smelled the fragrance of food at home and couldn't help but get off He Xu's arms. He quickly ran to the kitchen to get out the bowls for the three of them.
"Mom, it's time for dinner."
Chen Tang brought out the dishes and He Xu put the stools in place.
When the little guy tasted the thunder mushroom, he exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Mom's cooking is so delicious."
Chen Tang rolled his eyes at He Xu.
He Xu suppressed his laughter: "It's delicious. I have to go on a mission in two days. Go to the cafeteria to buy whatever you want to eat. Don't tire yourself out."
Chen Tang nodded: "I bought you a piece of clothing, try it on later."
After dinner, she took out the clothes for He Xu to try on.
He Xu pulled her into his arms. His wife was so soft and fragrant that her body felt warm.
Shen Tang blushed: “Okay, try on the clothes first.”
He Xu let the man go, took off his coat and inner clothes, revealing his muscular arms and eight-pack abs.
He picked up the shirt that Chen Tang bought, and suddenly leaned over and kissed her on the face.
Shen Tang glared at him angrily.
He Xu felt his body softened by her stare.
He pulled the clothes over his head and leaned over to kiss her on the lips.
Before Shen Tang got angry, he quickly put on his clothes, hugged her and kissed her.
Although the weather was still a bit cold, the room was so warm that my ears turned red.
He Xu let go of Shen Tang only after he heard the little guy knocking on the door outside.
He Xu touched Chen Tang's ear and curled his lips: "Are you still so shy?"
Chen Tang's eyes were watery as she glared at him, full of charm.
He Xu smiled and moved his arms, his abdominal muscles faintly visible: "It fits me well."
"It fits well. I don't look fat."
He Xu couldn't help laughing and patted her shoulder: "Wait for me to come back."
