Chen's father and mother, who had already eaten dinner, looked at the prepared dish called Liangpi in front of them, and their mouths were grinning with joy.
"Dabao, why did you think of sending Liangpi to grandpa?"
Father Chen looked at his eldest grandson, who was chubby and strong, and liked him more and more.
"Um....
I asked my mother if grandpa and grandma had eaten Liangpi before, and she asked me to bring it over.
Dabao touched the back of his head and said to Father Chen in surprise, "Grandpa and grandma, have you eaten it?"
Chen's mother and father looked into the bowl. It looked a bit like flour, but it was very transparent and they couldn't tell for sure.
"Grandpa and grandma have never eaten it, nor have they seen it."
Dabao nodded: "Then you guys eat now, mommy made it delicious!"
"Ouch....
"My grandson is so good!" Mother Chen gave him a kiss, while Dabao was so happy that he moved away to avoid being kissed.
Father Chen took a bite first, oh my god -
With eyes wide open, he looked at Chen's mother: "My dear, please try it quickly. I don't know how this sauce is made. It's so fragrant and a little spicy. It makes me a little hungry again."
Mother Chen also ate one, looking straight at Father Chen, "It's delicious. Eating this bowl on a hot day must be comfortable. The sauce is made with peanuts, no wonder it smells so good.
The old man knows how to make trouble! "
Mother Chen said this with emotion while looking at Dabao. She also envied her grandson and granddaughter who had delicious food every day.
As the old couple ate, they became more and more determined to live with the eldest son. However, they had to wait for the eldest son to come back and discuss it with him first, and let him talk to his wife himself.
Mother Chen looked at the empty plate, then looked at the fat Dabao, "Hey -
I don’t know if the one the third brother loves is his son.”
"I hope so. Otherwise, given the character of the third brother's family, they will have to keep giving birth. How are they going to raise so many children?"
Father Chen is not as enthusiastic about his grandson as before. Ever since Dabao was born, his Chen family has been doomed to extinction.
Although having many children means more blessings, it is not easy to be carefree if you have a grandson who is not easy to take care of.
There are too many such cases in the village.
Mother Chen nodded, "Today, Liu Ya came over and said she wanted to eat meat. I guess it was the third sister's teaching?
Bah, you only think about food every day, what a lazy foodie! "
Father Chen looked at his wife, and now he was becoming more and more partial to her. He always had a smile on his face towards the eldest daughter, the one he loved the most, and Dabao Niuniu, but he would have a sullen face when he met the eldest daughter's family and the third daughter's family.
The older children are better. They are sensible and help with housework every day.
As for his grandson Goudan, apart from being happy when he was born, the old man finally broke the pot and did not help to take care of him afterwards.
"Okay, after all, it's normal to be hungry. Send Dabao back to ask the old family for two meat tickets to satisfy the family's cravings!"
Mother Chen nodded.
Su Xia here was lying on a recliner, leisurely enjoying the breeze in the yard and admiring the sunset scenery.
Children don’t need to watch it, this is life.
I was fanning myself with a bamboo fan. The recliner was custom-made by Carpenter Li from the village. There was a wooden table next to it, which was perfect for putting snacks and drinks.
When Chen's mother brought Dabao over, she saw her eldest daughter-in-law enjoying herself.
He stood there, looking at Su Xia, who was lying on a recliner like an old man in the village, with a twitching mouth.
Chen's mother glared at her behind her back, saying that she was so young yet she had to imitate an old man.
"Mom, I want to lie down too!" Dabao let go of Chen's mother's hand, ran directly to Su Xia, and tried to climb up.
Su Xia had no choice but to open her eyes and looked at the kid who had already climbed onto her. "Why are you back so early?"
"What's the matter? Haven't you enjoyed enough?" Chen's mother retorted to her in annoyance.
Su Xia rolled her eyes: "Mom, you are here, find a place to sit by yourself."
Chen's mother didn't mind the dirtiness and just sat on the ground. The floor at the entrance of the old house was all cement and was cleaner than her house.
"My dear, I want to exchange two kilograms of meat tickets with you."
"Okay, I'm going to the county town tomorrow. Do you want to change it yourself, or should I bring the meat back for you directly?"
Su Xia was holding Dabao while chatting with Chen's mother.
"That's great, just bring the meat back and I'll give you the money now?"
As he said that, he took out two yuan and handed it to Su Xia.
"Why did you go to the county town just after you came back?" Chen's mother asked curiously.
"Nothing, there are too many eggs and vegetables at home, and we can't eat them all. Why not sell them and go visit my brother?"
Su Xia answered casually.
"Indeed, it's ruined, what a pity. Doesn't Sunan have a partner yet?" To be honest, many people in the village came to ask Chen's mother, but she was not a biological mother after all, so she rejected them all.
"Why---
Who knows, my parents are also worried about this matter, so why don't they go and ask this time?" Su Xia said unhappily.
Mother Chen recalled that her eldest son was almost 25 years old at that time and still had no family. She was so worried that her mouth was blistered every day, and she did not understand the difficulties of her in-laws.
"Su Nan has such good conditions, if you just want to marry him, don't worry."
"I hope so. Is there anything else that you need to bring?"
Mother Chen shook her head, then sat for a while and went back to sleep.
At this time, Niu Niu also ran back. After Su Xia took the two children to wash up, as it got dark, they all went to bed!
On the next day, Su Xia put all the things in a backpack. This time, she used two backpacks and hung them on the back seat of the bicycle to avoid having to find an empty alley.
"You two go to the old house to look for grandma. Mom will be back soon."
Dabao started to act like a spoiled child early in the morning and wanted to go with them, but until now, Su Xia still refused to give in.
"Mom, you really won't take me with you?"
"No, didn't you see those things? I'll be exhausted if I take you with me again. Just stay at home."
Su Xia pushed him aside and said, "Niuniu, take your brother to find grandma."
"Let's go, brother. Mom will be back soon and will bring you something delicious!" Niu Niu took Dabao's hand and walked out.
"Mom, haven't you forgotten the letter?" Dabao shouted at Su Xia.
Su Xia waved her hand and rode away on her bike at the speed of a rocket.
As he passed through the village roads, he attracted a wave of envious and jealous looks.
"Hello, Captain!" Seeing the captain, Su Xia greeted him directly, and then walked past without waiting for a reply.
"Why--
OK--" Captain Zhao looked at Su Xia who was walking away awkwardly.
"Puchi--" the son next to him laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at? I told you and Jianguo's wife to learn more. Look at the watermelons you planted, they look like you, all crooked and cracked, not a single round one!" Captain Zhao looked at his eldest son with disdain.
Zhao Dalin felt very aggrieved and said, "Then you are also stupid. I have raised pigs for two years, but they are still as thin as you." After saying that, he ran to the side to avoid being beaten.
"Get lost, you stinky boy. Didn't you see that those pigs are more than 30 pounds fatter than before? Pah - how can I kill you, my stupid son? Wait until Jianguo's wife comes back and ask her. If you still can't eat watermelon this year, I will plant you."
Captain Zhao walked home with his hands behind his back, not paying any attention to the boss behind him.
Zhao Dalin followed behind feeling aggrieved. The watermelons in the field were growing well, except for their size. They were not the crooked or uneven ones his father had mentioned.
When Su Xia arrived in the county town, she first sent a letter to Chen Jianguo, briefly telling him about the situation at home.
Then we went to the steel rolling mill. It was almost noon at this time, so it was a good time for us to have a meal together with Su Nan.
"Uncle, can you please call Wang Weiguo and Su Nan from the Propaganda Department?"
"Why--
It’s Su girl, are you back from visiting relatives?
OK, wait, I'll go call someone for you."
"Okay, thank you for your help, sir!" Because she came here frequently in the past two years, she had already become familiar with the gatekeeper, but Su Xia would always leave some food for the gatekeeper.
The old man ran over happily and went to find Wang Weiguo first, "Prince, Miss Su is here, she's at the door!"
"Really? Okay, I'll be there right away!" Wang Weiguo stood up and walked straight out.
"You go first, I'll help call Su Nan!" The old man walked towards the office area again.
"Sunan, your sister is here. She's at the door."
Sunan looked at the old man with surprise, and then went directly to his leader to ask for half an hour leave.
When the two men arrived at the door, Su Xia was already doing business with Wang Weiguo.
"Girl, when did you come back? I haven't seen you for a while. You've lost a lot of weight?"
Su Nan looked at her sister with a twitching mouth. She has become fatter than before she went to see her sister, okay?
He looked at Wang Weiguo suspiciously, could it be that his eyes were aging prematurely?
