After this delay, it was already half past twelve when he got home. Gu Weiqiang almost took the pot and went out to find someone. He was in a hurry!
Hearing footsteps in the main room, he turned his head and called out quickly, "Hurry up and serve the food! It's getting cold." It took him half an hour to get home from the yard to the house, which took five minutes. He was really slow.
Their family had an old-fashioned eight-immortal table, which was square and painted with a layer of mahogany paint. It looked quite old.
But it was different with a woman at home.
Not long after coming to this home, Teacher Sun thought about it and went to the tailor shop to cut a few feet of rain cloth. It was said that this was to protect the bicycles from the rain outdoors, but Teacher Sun was smart. The rain cloth was cut according to the size of the table, and it was placed on the sewing machine for a circle, and then tightly wrapped and spread on the table. When eating, it was to prevent oil and water from splashing on the table, which would be difficult to wash if it got dirty.
Don't underestimate this rain cloth, because it is glossy, unlike ordinary tablecloths, which can only be washed and dried before use. This rain cloth is very convenient. After every meal, dip the rag in water and wipe it on it, and it is basically clean and can be put away.
Next time you use it, you can take it out and clean it up. It is convenient and saves trouble. It is much more practical than the white lace tablecloth.
The head of the family has always been the grandmother, after all, she is the oldest person in the family. As for the other people in the family, they are not so particular and sit casually, because the old lady is discharged from the hospital today, which is a big happy event, and it is considered a welcome and a cleanup. In addition, there is Lu Yan as a guest. It is said that a son-in-law is half a guest when he returns home. Although Lu Yan has not officially become a son-in-law, the Gu family has recognized him, and there is no difference between him and a formal son-in-law.
Gu Weiqiang prepared a very rich meal today, including braised pork with potatoes, spicy rabbit meat, braised fish, fried peanuts, hot and sour Chinese cabbage, and a cold cucumber salad. Finally, he made a loofah and egg soup. This table is the best dish.
At first glance, it is really a big table. This is also Gu Weiqiang's willingness to spend. Neighbors living in the same compound may not have such a rich New Year's Eve dinner!
An An's eyes lit up when she saw the dishes on the table. She had been eating bland food for so many days, and finally there was something delicious. She was surprised, "Dad, you showed off your skills today?"
"Your grandma is out of the hospital and Lu Yan is coming to our house. They are both important people, so I, your dad, must treat them well." Gu Weiqiang brought the last pot of loofah soup and poured it directly into a large coarse porcelain bowl. He said loudly, "All ready!"
An An looked up and gestured, "You finally made it!" The last time Lu Yan came to their house, her dad was not so enthusiastic! It's really not easy!
With a faint smile in Lu Yan's eyes, he pulled a stool and sat next to An An, "Thank you, Uncle Gu!"
Gu Wei Qiang said proudly, "When An An graduates from high school, you two will settle down. From now on, when you come to my house, you have to ask me to call you dad!" When Gu Wei Qiang thought about having a twenty-something son out of nowhere, and that he didn't have to pay a penny for his living expenses for so many years, and he could still be filial to him, he felt so happy.
An An stamped her feet, glared at Gu Wei Qiang, and complained, "Dad! You are lying again!" She and Lu Yan are not engaged yet! Her own father is urging Lu Yan to change his words, how could this be possible? ?
Seeing that his daughter was angry, Gu Wei Qiang smiled dryly, "Dad, I'm just joking! Don't listen to my nonsense, daughter." He did not forget to bring Lu Yan with him, "And Lu Yan, the old lady was discharged from the hospital today, and uncle is very happy! My mind is a little confused."
How could Lu Yan be angry? He was so happy
that he couldn't wait to ask Gu Wei Qiang to call him dad! After all, if he changed the name, it would mean that he and An An were a family, and An An belonged to him completely.
Lu Yan stood up and pushed Gu Weiqiang to the chair, "I can't wait to ask you to call me dad! Don't bother, there are enough dishes on the table!", his son-in-law had spoken, Gu Weiqiang, the father-in-law, felt even happier.
He didn't clean up and sat down with Lu Yan. As the head of the family and the big man in the family, it was best for him to greet Lu Yan. He turned around and said, "Hongmei, help me get the dishes from the kitchen!", the dishes were served, but the dishes were not yet taken!
Teacher Sun didn't need to stand up.
An An and her two siblings went to the kitchen one after another, one counting the chopsticks, one holding the bowl. An An ran the slowest, so she stood up to stretch her muscles.
As an elder, I feel so proud when I see the younger generation working hard.
Gu Wei Qiang poured a cup of tea for Lu Yan. Seeing Lu Yan staring at An An without blinking, he proudly said, "Is my daughter pretty?"
Being caught on the spot by her father, Lu Yan's ears turned slightly red, but he remained calm and praised, "Pretty!"
"Then you must treat my daughter well in the future, or I will break your legs!" Gu Wei Qiang threatened, and added, "My daughter looks good, her academic performance is even better, she can cook, and she can make money!" He dared to say that there was no one as outstanding as his, Gu Wei Qiang's, daughter in this whole area. In Gu Wei Qiang's eyes, his daughter was good in every way.
When An An came over, she happened to hear her old father threatening Lu Yan, and praising her openly and secretly. She couldn't help but cover her face, my old father, you three may not be able to beat Lu Yan!
She had seen Lu Yan's skills.
Who would have thought that Dong Dong and Jiang Jiang took it seriously, and said crisply, "Brother-in-law, if you are not good to my sister! We will break your legs." They called him brother-in-law, not brother! That means they put Lu Yan in the position of An An's future husband.
And Dong Dong and Jiang Jiang are also newborn cows who are not afraid of tigers. The boxing and kicking skills of the two of them were taught by Lu Yan! Now the two children have not even graduated yet, but they have already begun to threaten their master.
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "Come here!" He would listen to Gu Weiqiang's words respectfully, because Gu Weiqiang is the elder and An An's father, but these two brats are going to make trouble.
Obviously, Lu Yan's expression did not change from beginning to end, and even his eyebrows did not twitch, but I don't know why, Dongdong and Jiang Jiang felt a chill on their necks. The two children subconsciously hid behind An An, and the little head of the cat was exposed. He decisively refused, "No."
An An, "Brother Yan, don't scare the two children."
Two children! ! In An An's eyes, Dongdong and Jiang Jiang are not children? But in Lu Yan's eyes, they are not! One is about to be ten years old, and the other is thirteen years old. How can they still be children? As soon as
An An spoke, Dong Dong and Jiang Jiang hid behind her and looked at Lu Yan with a little pride. They knew that it was right to find the sister.
Lu Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and he lightly flicked the non-existent dust on his sleeves, and said in a flat tone, "Still a child? Then we have to start from the child, double the training!",
Dong Dong and Jiang Jiang's faces fell immediately. Who knows, the training arranged by this brother-in-law is enough for them to drink a bottle of wine, not to mention double it.
If Lu Yan starts from this, An An really can't help these two children. After all, it was these two children who asked to learn martial arts from Lu Yan. Their father, Teacher Sun and she, the three of them had agreed that since these two children wanted to learn, they should go and learn, but they can't give up halfway, and they are even less likely to help.
So, An An was very depressed. Looking at his two younger brothers, he shrugged helplessly and indicated, "I can't help you."
Dong Dong and Jiang Jiang looked at Gu Wei Qiang. Gu Wei Qiang took the chopsticks, picked up a fried peanut, put it in his mouth and chewed it deliciously. He turned a blind eye to his two sons' requests for help.
As for Teacher Sun, she said bluntly, "Mom can't help you!" Then she changed the subject. Just when Dongdong and Jiangjiang thought that Teacher Sun would save them from the dire situation, Teacher Sun encouraged them, "Mom believes in you. Even if the task is tripled, you can still complete it."
Dongdong and Jiangjiang wanted to cry but had no tears. Mom didn't know how heavy the task was. Not to mention tripled, they couldn't even complete it twice. Normally, after completing the task every day, they were as tired as dead dogs and couldn't even get up.
The two children didn't hide behind An An anymore. After coming out, they sat on the stool, as wilted as eggplants hit by frost. The two children looked at each other and saw from each other's eyes that they couldn't live like this.
An An thinks so!
It seemed a bit bad to bully two children like this, so she picked up a big piece of braised pork for Dongdong and Jiangjiang with chopsticks, and said considerately, "Let's eat first, it will be hard work later." Practicing martial arts is not all about physical work.
Dongdong felt that the braised pork was not fragrant at all, and it tasted tasteless when chewed at the bottom!
Jiangjiang was the same, not much better.
Adults seemed to love bullying children the most. Seeing the two children like this, they really couldn't help laughing. But grandma was kind, she waved, "Dongdong, Jiangjiang, come here!"
Jiangjiang and Dongdong looked at each other, moved the stools, and ran to grandma's side to seek comfort.
Grandma smiled and picked up a piece of braised fish with chopsticks, picked out the fish bones and put it in the bowls of the two children. She pretended to glare at An An and Lu Yan, "Don't bully Xiao Dong Dong and Xiao Jiang Jiang!"
Dong Dong and Jiang Jiang nodded like little chickens pecking at rice! Yes! Just because they are children, bully them!
An An lowered his head, his shoulders trembling, it would be better if he ignored this little word.
Lu Yan was very serious, "Grandma, we know." Then, he changed the subject and said seriously, "Grandma, we didn't bully Dong Dong and Jiang Jiang, I just assigned them learning tasks." He pronounced the four words "learning tasks" very clearly.
Grandma choked, and silently added another chopstick of rabbit meat to Dongdong and Jiangjiang, "Children, eat more." They will have to go out and suffer later.
Although this was not said, everyone understood it!
Dongdong and Jiangjiang were completely hopeless.
Anan laughed unkindly. After one person started, the others had no scruples. Gu Weiqiang laughed the loudest, and he really wanted to shake the whole building. At
least when making fun of his own son, he was ruthless. In
the end, as a half-teacher of Jiangjiang and Dongdong, Lu Yan felt that he could not trick his future brother-in-law too hard all at once, because when he married Anan in the future, these two brothers-in-law would set a trap for him.
He took a bite of the red roasted pork, which was oily but not greasy and melted in his mouth. After he finished eating, he said lightly, "I was just kidding you two! Today's mission is normal."
Dongdong and Jiangjiang's faces changed from cloudy to sunny at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lu Yan continued, "Double it tomorrow!"
