"At my old house, all the vegetables are stored in the cellar! But this cellar is really good, and half of it is still empty!"
Chen's mother didn't come in, but her voice came in first.
Su Xia thought of the cellar in the backyard and felt sad too, mainly because it was not full.
“Eh….
It smells like lard, but why is there pickled cabbage? Are you making dumplings?" Chen's mother asked curiously.
Su Xia: "Well, pickled cabbage and oil residue stuffing, and a plate of cold pork liver for Dad, just right for a drink with Jianguo tonight!"
Father Chen came out after washing his hands, and grinned happily after hearing this.
Mother Chen rolled her eyes and said, "You only know how to eat, but don't know how to help?"
"You old woman, how can I make dumplings?" Chen's father complained.
Mother Chen: "Can't you learn? You're already so stupid!"
Father Chen said, "You old woman are so unreasonable. How can a man go into the kitchen?"
Su Xia....
Why are you arguing for no reason?
She was fine with Father Chen not entering the kitchen, but Chen Jianguo...
Su Xia recalled that when he was away, apart from cooking, he really didn't care about her.
Thinking about it this way, she seems to be luckier than her mother-in-law!
Mother Chen seemed to have thought of this as well, so she glared at Father Chen and yelled:
"I can't do it, so what's wrong with washing dishes? My husband is still working."
Upon hearing this, Father Chen opened his eyes wide and his lips trembled, not knowing how to refute.
The main thing is that my daughter-in-law is here. Can you say that my husband is idle and afraid of his wife?
Finally, I escaped from the kitchen and went back to the living room.
When Chen's mother saw his father running away, she felt as if she had won a battle. She raised her head and was as proud as a peacock.
The corner of Su Xia's mouth twitched. To be honest, she didn't quite understand. It was just a verbal battle, and she won one round.
But I still gave an embarrassing encouragement, "Mom, you are really amazing!"
Hearing this, Mother Chen suddenly became shy. She had just been arguing with the old man and had forgotten that the old man was in front of her.
"Hey...what's the big deal! Men can't be spoiled!" Chen's mother thought to herself, since she saw it, she can't lose face.
Su Xia..."!!!!"
However, with Chen's mother around, Su Xia quickly wrapped the dumplings and boiled the lard into two cans, each holding ten kilograms.
Well, there is a 2-jin jar filled with freshly boiled oil.
Mother Chen looked at the white oil with interest and said, "With these, it will be enough to eat for a long time!"
Su Xia...If she cooks, it will only be for half a year, and she has to mix it with vegetable oil.
"Mom, we have plenty of oil and water at home. When you cook next time, put more in. Don't worry about it!"
Mother Chen: "Hey, Xia Xia, you don't know how we could not save money when we were hungry?"
Su Xia rolled her eyes and said, "You said that before. Now that we have the conditions, are you still saving money?"
Mother Chen frowned. "I don't know what's wrong with me. I can't control myself when I cook!"
Su Xia...the feelings are not intentional.
"You've become so weird over the years!"
"Yes, yes..." Mother Chen nodded. She also knew that her cooking was not very tasty, but when she cooked herself, she couldn't help but tremble with the oil and salt. In the end, of course the food was lacking in salt and oil, and it didn't taste good.
Su Xia knew in her heart that Chen's mother couldn't change her behavior. She had been used to it for decades and there was no way to change it.
Besides, the situation at home is relatively better than in the village.
When making dumplings at the end, Niu Niu also helped. Chen's mother is quite good at this.
The teacher was very enthusiastic. Su Xia boiled water in another pot in the kitchen and lit coal in the coal stove. When she went to bed at night, several rooms were warm.
Chen Jianguo told Xiao Li that his wife and children and his parents had come to the county town.
I was a bit absent-minded at work, just waiting and waiting, but there was really nothing to do in the afternoon, so I just divided the pork.
In the entire unit, only Chen Jianguo has no such ability.
When others saw this, they didn't feel ashamed at all and some even looked envious.
"Deputy Station Master, what do you think of what we have in our hands?"
Chen Jianguo...
"What nonsense are you talking about? Is our deputy station chief short of that kind of people?"
'That's right, he just married a good wife, otherwise how could he be so carefree!'
Chen Jianguo looked over and turned his head away helplessly, because the person who spoke was their Station Master Lei.
The others tried to hold back their laughter while stealing glances at Chen Jianguo.
After finally getting off work, Chen Jianguo couldn't wait to pack up and put on his clothes.
As soon as I came out, I saw Stationmaster Lei.
"Webmaster, what are you doing? If you're not going home, where are you going?"
Stationmaster Lei had some thoughts in mind, and he was certainly doing it on purpose.
Then cough cough....
Chen Jianguo is strange...
"Um...I heard your parents...are here!"
"Well, what's wrong?"
Stationmaster Lei rolled his eyes in his heart. What a straightforward guy. Didn’t he understand what I meant?
"Well, I have a bottle of wine here... perfect for catching up with your dad!"
Chen Jianguo....
The corners of his mouth twitched. If you want to eat for free, just say so. He also wanted to reminisce with his father. How could he reminisce with him when he didn't even know him?
Finally, on the way home, I had no choice but to find someone behind me.
Su Xia didn't know yet that there was someone who was eating for free. She had wrapped the dumplings and was waiting for Chen Jianguo to come back and put them in the pot.
In another pot, blood sausage and pork liver are also cooked, waiting for Su Xia to add seasoning and mix them cold.
There was also a plate of scrambled eggs with green onions on the table, which looked so golden that it made people hungry.
When Chen Jianguo brought the free meal home, Niuniu and the others ran out happily.
"Dad, you're back?"
"Hey...Grandpa Lei?"
"It's really Grandpa Lei!" Xiaobao exclaimed.
Chen's father and mother heard the noise and Su Xia went out.
There were indeed two people in the yard, one was Chen Jianguo, and the other, with a grin that stretched to the back of his head, was Stationmaster Lei.
Laughing, "Su girl, I'm here to eat for free!"
Su Xia's eyebrows twitched, mainly because she was thinking of that afternoon of drinking.
I don’t know Chen’s father and mother yet, so I can only stand aside.
After everyone got to know each other, Stationmaster Lei seemed to be a native of Zhaojia Village and chatted with Chen's father about everything from birth to growing up, getting married, having children...
Soon, everyone knew about the pigs and chickens they raised at home.
Su Xia....
"Wife, let me do it?" Chen Jianguo changed his clothes, washed his hands and came over to help.
Su Xia pointed at the plate. "Bring the dumplings up there. I'll leave this to you. I'll go to the living room and eat with the kids."
Chen Jianguo nodded, "Yes, I'm here!"
In this way, Su Xia took her three children to eat in the living room. The door was not closed. Father Chen and Stationmaster Lei, the two old men, were drinking and bragging. The four of them, mother and children, heard it all clearly.
"Mom, what are grandpa and the others drinking?" Erbao asked curiously.
"That's wine, it's stinky, it's not good at all!"
Erbao was even more curious, "It's so smelly, but Grandpa and Grandpa Lei are still taking a bite?"
Su Xia and Niu Niu looked at each other and did not participate.
"Mom, I just heard Grandma Qiao next door shouting!"
Hearing this, Su Xia suddenly remembered that Aunt Qiao was severely bullied by her and Mother Chen today.
"Keep eating. Ignore you. Your father and I will take care of everything!"
Niuniu nodded in relief and continued eating.
At this time, there was indeed a commotion next door, and the protagonist was Wang Hehua, whose cheeks were a little red and swollen.
"What do I need you for? You didn't care when your wife was bullied! And you, your mother, was beaten up like this, but you didn't even dare to ask for justice. Why did I give birth to you..."
Then he looked at his daughter-in-law and grandson.
