◎Changes caused by fruits◎
Wang Xiaomei's parents-in-law have returned from the hospital. Although her father-in-law is lying in bed and unable to move, all the housework in the house is now done by her mother-in-law.
When Wang Xiaomei got home, Jiang Tao had already finished get off work and was at home. Seeing Wang Xiaomei coming back, he quickly stepped forward and took the bag from her hand: "Why are you so late today? I was just asking if I should go out to pick you up?"
"I'm a bit busy today, where are my parents..." Wang Xiaomei said, and then she saw the untouched food on the table and blamed him, "Didn't you say not to wait for me to come back to eat? I get off work late, you and your parents can eat first, and just leave some for me."
Jiang Tao, who was following behind to help her carry her bag, said casually, "It's okay. It doesn't matter if you wait a little longer. The parents are in the house with their son."
"You're fine. Your parents are old. Don't keep them waiting so late."
"Okay, I'll tell them next time. By the way, what's so heavy in your bag?"
When talking about this, Wang Xiaomei smiled and kept it a secret: "Open it and see for yourself."
Seeing her acting so mysterious, Jiang Tao had no choice but to open the bag and take a look: "What is this? Where did you get so many fruits?"
...
...
Seeing the man's surprised face, Wang Xiaomei said proudly: "They are from the store. Otherwise, where else can I get these things? Brother Jiang bought a lot of goods today, including these kinds of fruits, and they are selling very well."
Jiang Tao misunderstood her words and thought that she had secretly taken these fruits from the store. His expression immediately became serious and he asked, "How could you take things home from the store?"
Wang Xiaomei was stunned for three seconds before she realized what he meant. She said unhappily, "What are you thinking? Am I that kind of person? This is an employee benefit my sister-in-law gave me."
"Ah?" What employee benefits?
"I was originally going to buy them with my own money, but my sister-in-law saw them and told us employees to take a few home to try as employee benefits. I didn't expect you to think of me like this. Brother Jiang and sister-in-law are so good to us, how could I do such a thing? Is your wife such an ungrateful person?"
Jiang Tao swallowed awkwardly, pulled her arm and coaxed her: "Am I not too anxious? I'm sorry I misunderstood you. You are a big man and don't remember the little man's mistakes. I apologize to you. Don't be angry, okay?"
"Humph," Wang Xiaomei brushed his hand aside, "That's better. We can leave these fruits at home for our parents and son to eat a few a day. It will last for a few days."
Jiang Tao saw that his wife was only thinking about her parents and son and not herself at all, and his eyes suddenly became red. It was because of his incompetence that his wife couldn't even bear to eat a few fruits. Thinking of this, he took all the fruits to the kitchen, washed them, and placed them in front of Wang Xiaomei.
"Don't just think about your parents, eat too."
Wang Xiaomei was feeling distressed when she saw him wash all the fruits at once. But when she heard these words, she immediately stopped caring about the distress and said with a slightly red face, "I'll have nothing to eat. Let's leave them for my parents."
"Dad and mom are eating, you should eat too," he said as he took a date and handed it to her mouth.
Wang Xiaomei had no choice but to open her mouth and take a bite: "Hmm, sweet. You should try it too." But she didn't know whether the dates were sweeter or her heart was sweeter.
Wang Xiaomei's mother-in-law in the room initially thought that her son and daughter-in-law were arguing, so she didn't come out immediately. Now that she heard that there was no noise, she took her grandson out.
When Wang Xiaomei saw her mother-in-law coming out, she immediately squatted down, hugged her son and kissed him, then said to her mother-in-law, "Mom, I'm back. I kept you waiting for too long."
Section 61
"It's not too late, it's not too late, you work hard and we have nothing to do at home, we can eat anytime." As she spoke, Jiang's mother carefully looked at her son and daughter-in-law, and was relieved to see that they looked fine and did not look like they had just had a quarrel. Since her husband's accident, the burden of the family has been placed on the youngest son, and the daughter-in-law has no complaints. For this reason, she did not want the two to have a conflict.
Only when the family is harmonious and happy can the family become better and better.
At this time, Wang Xiaomei's son saw the fruit on the table, pointed at it and said to Wang Xiaomei: "Mom, eat it."
"Okay, Mom will get you one."
Jiang's mother looked over and asked in surprise, "Where did you get this from?"
"Mom, this is what our store gave out. Please put it away and save it for you and my dad to eat at home tomorrow."
"Oh, you are so thoughtful." Jiang's mother agreed with a smile. She was not sure whether she would eat it or not, but she was very happy to hear her daughter-in-law say that. She said, "I will put it away later and save it for my grandson to eat slowly."
Just because of a few fruits, the whole family felt a lot more relieved.
On the other side, the situation was almost the same in Lin Fengxia and Wang Cuiying's homes.
Lin Fengxia’s eldest son is married, and she has a second son and a little daughter.
Normally, her eldest daughter-in-law looked down on her unemployed mother-in-law. But now, seeing that her mother-in-law not only found a job on her own, but could also bring back such rare fruits, her attitude changed immediately.
Wang Cuiying doesn't have a daughter-in-law, but she has a snobbish mother-in-law. Even though she has a job now, her mother-in-law still thinks she is not worthy of her son. Her son is a veteran in the factory and earns the salary of an eighth-level worker, which is more than 100 yuan a month.
This time was the same. The fruit that Wang Cuiying brought back was disliked by her mother-in-law, who said it was something only rural people ate. But as soon as she finished her words, she was refuted by her beloved son, who said that the fruit was a rare thing, and he happened to want to change his eldest son's job recently, so the fruit would be suitable to be kept and given away.
Wang Cuiying felt relieved when she saw her mother-in-law was so angry that she couldn't say anything.
The next morning, Jiang Che's three-day vacation ended and he had to go back to work. Wei Xuan gave him the picked fruits and asked him to take them to the factory to deliver them to Brother Jiang.
After Jiang Che left, Wei Xuan took her daughter to have a leisurely breakfast before taking her downstairs to the courtyard where she used to live.
It was too late yesterday, and Wei Xuan stopped Jiang Che from coming over to make the braised meat. In addition, with the meat sent by Wu Yun today, there was indeed a lot of meat accumulated.
The weather was pretty good today, there was no wind and the sun was quite comfortable. Wei Xuan didn't heat the kang. She locked the gate and let Yuanyuan play in the yard. Seeing that she was having fun, Wei Xuan didn't pay much attention to her. She fetched some water from the well, heated it in a large iron pot, and squatted at the kitchen door to start processing the pork.
Put the processed meat in an iron pot and blanch it, then divide it into several jars, prepare the marinade and it's ready to cook.
The jars I bought before have been left in the yard and have not been moved away in time. Now it is convenient for Wei Xuan.
There were four jars in total. After that, Wei Xuan took Yuanyuan and locked the yard and walked towards the store. There was no stove here, so they had to go to the store.
Wang Xiaomei was busy in the store, so Wei Xuan put her daughter behind the counter and told Wang Xiaomei to look after the child while she went back to the yard to get the jar of braised meat.
At most, they could move two jars at a time, and that was enough. There were only two stoves in the store. Wei Xuan lit the fires of the two stoves, put the jars on them, and let them gurgle slowly.
When it boils, replace the other two jars and continue cooking.
After chatting with Wang Xiaomei in the store for a while, Wei Xuan prepared to go back as it was getting late.
Before leaving, he did not forget to remind Wang Xiaomei to remember to bring the other two jars of braised meat from the yard to cook at noon, and then distribute them to the other two stores, one jar each.
After taking the children out for a walk, their clothes are so dirty when they come back that they are unsightly.
Anyway, I don't know where it was rubbed against, but it's so dirty.
We just got home and our bodies are not warm yet, so we cannot take off clothes randomly to prevent the child from rubbing against the dirty clothes everywhere. Wei Xuan played with Yuanyuan for a while, and when she felt that her palms were warm, she took off her coat and trousers and let her soak on the balcony outside. Then she didn't need to worry about her anymore and let her run around. There were no dangerous items in the house anyway, and the most dangerous things were probably in the kitchen.
There are only two people eating at noon, and Wei Xuan doesn't like having leftovers at home, so she has a headache every time she cooks.
Thinking that there are dumplings at home, I might as well make some for lunch.
She and her daughter each had a bowl of rice. After eating, she coaxed the child to sleep and went to the balcony to rub the clothes that her daughter had changed at noon and put them up to dry before she went into the house and hugged her daughter to sleep together.
The mother and daughter were sleeping soundly here, while Jiang Che went to look for Brother Jiang after get off work at noon but couldn't find him.
After thinking about it and still worried that something might happen, he went to his leader and asked for leave to visit his family.
The leader got a headache when he saw Jiang Che: "Didn't you just take three days off and come back to work? Why do you want to take another leave?"
Jiang Che took out a bag and handed it over in a flattering manner: "I have something to deal with at home. I promise I will be back as soon as I am done."
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Seeing Jiang Che's good attitude, the leader couldn't be too harsh. The main reason was that he accepted the gift from others. He felt guilty. The leader coughed twice and said seriously, "This is just once."
"Okay, thank you, leader."
After saying that, he ran away.
When he got home this time, someone from the Jiang family was there.
It was Brother Jiang who opened the door for him.
Seeing that his elder brother was not unusual, Jiang Che asked, "Why didn't he go to work today?"
Brother Jiang frowned and said, "I went, but my mother was alone at home. I was worried about her, so I thought of coming back to see her and bring her some food. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Jiang Che paused as he walked in: "Is mom not well yet?"
"No, I don't know what happened yesterday. She said she didn't want to stay in the hospital anymore and insisted on coming back. Everyone in her family had to go to work and there was no one to take care of her, but she wouldn't listen. In the end, we had no choice but to discharge her from the hospital. Now she's lying in the house."
"Then I'll go take a look." Jiang Che walked in quickly.
Jiang's mother was not asleep. As soon as the door opened, she turned her head when she heard the noise.
"It's Xiao Che who's back."
"Yes," Jiang Che said with a smile as he walked in, "My second uncle found some fruits for me in the store. I think they are fresh, so I wanted to send some to you and dad to try."
Seeing her youngest son being so sensible, Jiang's mother smiled with relief: "You have grown up and know how to respect me and your father."
"I've grown up a long time ago, but you always treat me like a child." Jiang Che walked to the bed and sat down. Seeing that Jiang's mother's face had changed a lot compared to yesterday in just one night, he immediately asked worriedly, "Mom, are you still thinking about my second sister? Don't worry, I'll talk to my second sister about this matter, and I'm sure I can convince her to divorce Nie Yuande, so don't worry about it."
