After Su Xia returned home, everyone in the family breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Erbao, who was obviously in good spirits.
"Yo--
How painful must it be to have a needle stuck in the hand at such a young age?" Mother Chen almost cried when she saw the little hand still covered with tape.
"Hoohoo--"
The pain won't come to my brother soon!" Xiaobao kept exhaling at the spot where Erbao had received the injection.
Niuniu also felt distressed, and kept holding a towel to Erbao to wipe the tiny beads of sweat from his forehead.
Su Xia--
Her back was soaked with sweat from exhaustion, but there was no one around her.
I sighed, there was nothing I could do, so I had to accept my fate and start packing up the things I bought. There was a pile of meat, and if I didn't cook it first, it would go bad quickly in this hot weather.
First, put the purchased household items in their respective cabinets, then give the gala oil and vanishing cream to Chen's mother, as well as the tobacco bought for Chen's father, plus two boxes of Qianmen, which I would take with me when I went to the village to show my wealth.
"Mom, this is for you and Dad, don't forget to bring it back later!"
Upon hearing this, Chen's mother put Erbao down first, wiped her body with her hands twice, and then took it.
The dry old hands, the gala oil, and the white porcelain bottle of vanishing cream form a sharp contrast.
I looked up and my eyes were a little wet. "It's so expensive, why did you buy them?"
"Don't worry, I also bought some for my mom and dad!" Su Xia said casually and turned around to continue processing the meat.
He also left a message: "Mom, Erbao, wait a little longer. I bought so much meat, I have to pickle it quickly, otherwise it will go bad quickly in the hot weather!"
Only mother Chen was left standing there, half moved, with eyes half wet and half dry.
When Erbao came running over and saw her like this, he asked curiously, "Grandma, why are you standing there like an idiot?"
Mother Chen was awakened by this, and immediately glanced at her grandson with a bad temper. How could she say that her grandma was "standing there like an idiot"?
"It's okay, these are things your mother bought, and also grandpa's!" After saying that, he looked at 꺶 Bao, wanting to see what grandson 떚 would say?
After hearing this, 꺶宝 no longer showed any curiosity. He just took a look at it and then curled his lips in disdain. "What the hell is this? It's not even as good as a candy bar."
"No, I have to go find mom. I just saw the soda!" Then he ran to the kitchen.
Looking at 꺶宝's little back, I can still hear "Mom, I want to drink soda?"
"What are you drinking? I've already used well water to calm it down. I'll drink it while I eat!"
꺶宝 "Ah? Is there anything else to eat?"
"No, your dead father didn't send anything either?"
꺶宝 "Mom, didn't my dad give you money?"
Su Xia said angrily, "How about giving me money? I don't think you can earn money."
꺶宝 "Mom, you're wrong. Men should be the ones earning money at home, and women should just cook at home!"
Sure enough, the next moment Chen's mother heard Xiaobao cry out in pain.
Su Xia: "I told you to show off, and you think men only care about making money? How come you, a man, ask me for food every day?"
Xiaobao cried out in pain and retorted, "I'm not a child. I will definitely make money when I grow up!"
....
Mother Chen listened to the argument between the two mothers in the kitchen, and finally turned into a one-sided beating.
I burst out laughing and went back to the bedroom, where I saw Niuniu changing Erbao's diaper.
He quickly put down what he was holding and said, "I'll do it, you clumsy guy, go read a book!"
Upon hearing this, Niu Niu stood aside and watched her grandmother change the diaper. Sure enough, the baby felt more comfortable in Chen's mother's arms than in hers.
Looking at the things next to her, and then looking at Chen's mother with a smile on her face, Niuniu couldn't help but admire her mother for being able to coax people.
So her grandparents are at home every day helping them with housework, and her mother just takes care of the second baby.
Niuniu nodded, and learned the second lesson of life: "Sacrifice a little in exchange for greater benefits."
In the kitchen, Su Xia prepared a meal for 꺶bao, and then asked 꺶bao to help add fuel to the fire.
I put the pig liver and pig lungs in a pot and simmer them over medium heat.
Looking at 꺶宝 who was pouting on the small stool, he snorted and laughed, "How is it, little man? Is it fun to add fuel to the fire?"
꺶 Bao shook his head aggrievedly, "Mom, it's so hot?" In fact, he was just acting coquettishly to change Su Xia's wishes.
"No, work hard. If you do nothing and run around all day, I will make sure you have a plate of fried pork!"
Xiao Bao shrank back in fear, then sat quietly on the stool. Su Xia looked at him with disdain.
Now, 꺶宝 is just a piece of black coal, a piece of black coal with a black face, black arms, black calves, and a white body and legs.
The whole thing looks a bit like a black and white panda, which is really unbearable to look at.
While the liver and lungs were being cooked in the pot, Su Xia sprinkled salt evenly on the ribs on the other side. She cut 5 jin of pork belly into strips, sprinkled salt evenly on each strip, put them in a bamboo basket, and dropped them into the well with a rope.
Su Xia picked two more tomatoes, cucumbers, green onions, coriander and green garlic, and went to take a look at the melon field. The watermelons were not ripe yet, but they were almost the same size, and each one weighed seven or eight kilograms.
I looked for a few more cantaloupes in the cantaloupe field, and finally found three ripe ones. I picked them all, walked to the well, washed all the vegetables first, and after washing the cantaloupes, soaked them directly in the basin with soda.
Su Xiacai returned to the kitchen with a basket of clean vegetables, and put the fermented dough in the pot to steam buns.
In fact, half of the food at home is still cornmeal buns, white rice once a week, and white flour is noodles, cold noodles, and dumplings are all white flour, but only two or three times a month.
Cornmeal buns were also made with half white flour, which made them taste better. There was plenty of wheat at home anyway, and Chen's parents also moved all their wheat to her.
Why---
I don't know when I started eating with them?
Su Xia muttered to herself, but when she cooked, she still took the food for the two old people with her.
After everything in the pot is ready, slice the pork liver, add shredded cucumber, coriander and chopped green onion, half with chili pepper and half without chili pepper.
As for the pig lungs, heat oil in a pan, cut the pig lungs into small pieces, pour them into an iron pan with sautéed garlic cloves, then add salt, soy sauce, MSG, a little dark soy sauce, oyster sauce and other seasonings. In an instant, the whole kitchen is filled with fragrance.
"Mom, this smells so good! It's black!" 꺶 Bao kept helping to add fuel to the fire, actually he just wanted to wait for the delicious food.
Mother Chen had already been holding Erbao, waiting by the dining table, watching Su Xia cook.
Smelling the aroma from the kitchen, I sighed, "Old man, your cooking skills are really amazing now!"
"If you make this for me, your father will say that I am wasting good things!" Chen's mother either stews or boils when cooking.
Before Chen's father had tasted Su Xia's cooking, he still accepted it as long as he didn't starve to death.
After eating too much of Su Xia's food, Chen's mother's food always tasted delicious, such as pork stewed with beans and potatoes.
The meat in the soup tasted like meat, the potatoes were potatoes, and the beans were boiled, but all three were served in one bowl.
As soon as Mr. Chen started eating, he stopped eating and looked at Mrs. Chen in surprise and said, "The more I admire you, the more you can make three flavors out of one dish!"
Su Xia listened to what Chen's mother said and did not stop working, because pig lungs are delicious only when they are stir-fried and dry-fried without any moisture.
But he still found time to comfort Chen's mother, "Mom, you're used to being frugal. If you want me to add a little salt and enough seasoning for each meal, it will definitely taste good!"
After hearing this, Chen's mother also agreed. She couldn't change it, which was why she was happy to eat at Su Xia's place now.
Who doesn't want to eat good food? But don't look at my daughter-in-law. It seems wasteful. In fact, the food has not been reduced at all. Besides, we usually eat cornmeal buns. But this one tastes better than what others make.
If she were asked to go back and continue eating the meal she cooked, Mother Chen would silently hug her second baby and tell her that she should do more work so that her parents would continue to employ them!
