Old Mrs. Xu had no choice but to take out the key and get food for the third child.
Xu Lei went to the kitchen and brought back a small basin, then went straight to the bag of flour.
"Hey... why do you want the flour? Some pancakes will be enough for us to eat at night. Just take a cabbage." The old lady stopped the third child.
How can you waste this plain white flour?
"Mom, I want to make some noodles for Yuzhu." Xu Lei wanted to calm his wife down.
All I can say is that men put women in their hearts.
Even if they are only slightly wronged, I will try my best to comfort them.
"It's not a festival, why are we eating noodles? Is it that the food in our Xu family can't support Jiang Yuzhu?"
"She is the eldest daughter, why does she have to eat differently from others?" Old Mrs. Xu immediately got angry.
After hearing this, Xu Lei's face darkened.
"Mom, you've been giving me special treatment over the years, haven't I said anything?"
"Before Jiang Yuzhu went to the countryside, she was a city girl. Although she wasn't a daughter of the upper class, at least her food, clothing, housing and transportation were better than ours."
"She was wronged today, and I want to make her a bowl of noodles. Do you think that's a problem, Mom?"
Xu Lei doesn’t care what he eats, but his wife doesn’t.
He gives his family ten yuan a month, but if his wife can't even cook for herself occasionally, there's no point in giving her the money.
"You..." Old Mrs. Xu was trying her best to suppress her temper.
You can't turn against him, you have to be softer towards the third brother.
Otherwise, he would really be unable to make that ten dollars in the future.
Ten dollars.
That's not a small amount of money.
Ten dollars a month is one hundred and twenty dollars a year.
You have to know that many families can't earn this much money even if they work hard all year round.
Their family was able to save a considerable amount of money thanks to the large labor force and the monthly subsidy from the third child.
"Just spoil your wife!" Old Mrs. Xu glared at her son.
I left in anger, out of sight, out of mind.
Xu Lei continued what he was doing, and not only that, he also took two eggs and cut off a small piece of the pickled bacon in the jar.
When Xu Lei was cooking, the corners of his mouth never drooped.
When everyone came back to eat in the evening, they found that all they had in front of them was cornmeal pancakes and a large pot of stewed cabbage.
In front of Jiang Yuzhu was a bowl of noodles with meat and eggs.
The difference is too big.
"No, mother..." The fourth child looked at his mother.
"What are you looking at me? That's the special meal your third brother made for his wife. There's no point looking at me!" The old lady felt suffocated when she saw the bowl of noodles.
He even took eggs and her bacon.
I should have paid more attention if I had known this earlier.
"Ah? This dinner was made by third brother?" The fourth brother was shocked.
The others were also stunned.
"Let's eat and try what I cooked." Xu Lei came in with Jiang Yuzhu.
Xu Meili was obviously unhappy when she saw the noodles in front of Jiang Yuzhu.
She used to have her own special meal, but now that Jiang Yuzhu got married, the food she eats is not as good as before.
When the eldest sister-in-law saw the third brother's behavior, she became more dissatisfied with her husband and pinched him hard.
“Ah…hiss…”
"Why are you pinching me?" The eldest brother looked at his wife, wondering what kind of madness she was going through.
The third brother is confident enough to join the army, so what can he, a farmer, do?
It’s good to have something to eat.
"Eat, you've been tired all day, go back to your room and rest after eating." When the old man saw the expressions of the people at the table, he knew that this family would be divided sooner or later.
He understands the principle that a big tree has many branches.
But it’s not possible now, because the fourth child and my daughter are not married yet.
Jiang Yuzhu looked at the noodles in front of her and started eating without hesitation.
She has no burden, so why should she worry so much?
Mm, delicious.
In the past, she didn't even care about noodles.
With so many delicious foods, who would still eat noodles?
But it’s different now. Wheat is very precious these days.
Every family saves it for the Chinese New Year to make dumplings, and they are reluctant to eat it at other times.
Now Xu Lei has completely won her over with just a bowl of noodles.
This man is really good to her.
The bacon is also very fragrant. The oil is fried out, the fat is crystal clear, the lean meat is pink, and with the white and tender poached egg, this bowl of noodles is really good.
Jiang Yuzhu is not one to eat alone. She stopped eating halfway through and said, "I can't eat anymore."
Then he poured the noodles in his bowl into Xu Lei's bowl.
When Xu Lei saw the meat and eggs in the bowl, he knew that Jiang Yuzhu had specially reserved some for him.
He could hardly hide the smile on his lips. He lowered his head and ate all the noodles left by Jiang Yuzhu in a few bites.
Everyone was jealous of the interaction between the two.
This is really a newly married couple, so sweet.
Old Mrs. Xu didn't want to be bothered by the sight, so she thought she could just endure it for a few more days until the third son passed away.
After dinner, Xu Lei and Jiang Yuzhu returned to their room.
"I...I want to take a shower." Jiang Yuzhu asked with a red face.
I came here and haven’t even taken a shower yet.
She would just wipe it briefly in the room when no one was around.
Xu Lei didn't know what he was thinking about, and his throat tightened.
"Tomorrow I'll have someone make you a large bath tub, two chairs, and a small table. Today, you can wash in a basin while I boil some more water."
Xu Lei walked out with a red face.
In fact, Jiang Yuzhu was also struggling in her heart, but since she had decided to live a good life with Xu Lei, this kind of thing was inevitable.
