In the evening, there were radish meatballs fried by Yao Xiuli on the dinner table at Chu Tian’s house. Chu Tian thought they were green radish meatballs again, but when he bit into them, he found that they were not.
“The carrot balls are delicious when they are added.”
Yao Xiujuan paused while drinking her porridge. "Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten something!"
Chu Tian looked at Yao Xiujuan in confusion, "What's the matter?"
Yao Xiujuan, "Aunt Wu sent us a lot of food today."
Chu Tian was stunned. "Ah? Isn't today the fifth day of the New Year? Why is Aunt Wu still here?"
Yao Xiujuan smiled, "I asked the same question today, and Aunt Wu said...so they won't leave until early tomorrow morning."
Chu Tian frowned slightly, "How are we going to get there tomorrow morning? Aren't they going to go to the farm first, and then take a bus from there to the city? That's a long way around..."
Yao Xiujuan waved her hand. "We don't need to worry about that. Aunt Wu said that her son's former comrades will come to pick them up and take them to the train station tomorrow morning."
"I'm telling you this because I feel like we've accepted so many dishes from her, I should tell you."
When Yao Xiuli heard this, she immediately looked at Chu Tian.
Chu Tian wondered what was going on, so he just waved his hand and said, "You don't need to tell me about these things. Just handle them as you see fit. If you feel like you owe someone something, just pay them back later. It's no big deal!"
"Wu Ya, I don't want to eat anymore..."
When Chu Tian heard the sound, he turned his head and saw Wu Ya jumped off the stool and ran to the outside. He looked closely and saw that she had not drunk the porridge in her bowl!
"Wu Ya didn't eat much, why did you run away?"
Yao Xiujuan's face instantly turned bad, and she shouted, "Wu Ya, you are not allowed to eat bananas anymore! Otherwise, mother will be angry!"
Wu Ya held a banana in her hand and poked her head out from outside, looking at Chu Tian pitifully, "Dad, Wu Ya wants to eat..."
Chu Tian couldn't stand Wu Ya's pitiful expression, and immediately looked at Yao Xiujuan, "Xiujuan, Wu Ya..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yao Xiujuan, "Brother Tian, I know you love Wu Ya, but do you know how many bananas did Wu Ya eat today? Four! She ate four! She ate less than half of the bananas she usually eats for lunch!"
As he said this, he pointed his finger even more forcefully to show that Wu Ya was really going too far!
“·····”
Chu Tian touched his nose guiltily, coughed twice, turned to look at Wu Ya, and said in a slightly serious tone, "Wu Ya, listen to your mother and eat your food obediently. You are not allowed to eat bananas today!"
Wu Ya pursed her lips, looking like she was about to cry but didn't.
Yao Youjun was so distressed that he was about to speak when Yao Xiuli, who was sitting next to him, pulled him back and shook her head slightly at him.
After persisting for a while, Wu Ya saw that her father, mother, aunt and uncle were all looking at her indifferently, so she had to put down the banana honestly and sat back at the dinner table, but her little mouth was still pouting!
After dinner, Chu Tian and Yao Youjun did not rush back to the dugout next door to rest, but sat at the dining table and chatted with Yao Xiujuan and her sister.
Yao Xiuli looked at Yao Youjun with bright eyes, "Brother, is the steel plant big?"
Yao Youjun nodded, "It's huge, really huge. The place where I signed up is huge..."
Yao Xiuli was extremely envious, "Wow, that's great."
Yao Youjun raised his chin slightly, his face full of pride, "Wait, once I've established myself at the steel mill, I'll get you in there too!"
Chu Tian, "..."
Upon hearing this, Yao Xiujuan casually grabbed the candy Wu Ya had placed on the table and threw it towards Yao Youjun, "Don't brag! Do you think you can just get someone in?"
Yao Youjun hurriedly caught the candy that Yao Xiujuan recognized, put it on the table, and scratched his head embarrassedly, "Sister, I was just kidding..."
Yao Xiujuan glared at her younger brother. "You can't even joke around. When you start working, you can't brag about anything. You have to control your mouth! Otherwise, don't blame me for punishing you! Got it?"
Seeing that his elder sister was really angry, Yao Youjun quickly assured her, "Sister, I know. Don't you know who I am? I only joke in front of my family..."
Yao Xiuli also hurriedly helped Yao Youjun speak, "Sister, brother is not the kind of person who brags outside..."
Yao Xiujuan pointed at Yao Youjun, "Youjun..."
Chu Tian glanced at the three of them, silently took a banana from the table, peeled it and prepared to watch the fun.
Wu Ya was sitting next to Chu Tian. Seeing that her father was about to eat a banana, she pulled his sleeve and looked at Chu Tian with a pitiful expression.
“····”
Unable to resist her adorable expression, Chu Tian glanced at Yao Xiujuan who was still teaching Yao Youjun. Seeing that her attention was still on Yao Youjun, he quietly handed the banana he was about to eat to Wu Yazui and whispered, "Hurry and take a bite..."
Wu Ya's eyes lit up, she opened her mouth and took a bite, and her satisfied little expression was so cute that Chu Tian almost bled.
Chu Tian smiled knowingly, and just like that, following Yao Xiujuan's voice, the father and daughter took turns eating a banana. Yao Xiujuan's education of her younger brother was almost over.
Looking at Yao Youjun, who was dejected with his ears drooping like a bullied puppy, Chu Tian, who had watched the show for so long, felt guilty and started to speak well of Yao Youjun.
"Xiujuan, actually, for a boy of his age, Youjun is pretty good. At least Director Liu from the steel plant praised him today. He's a big director who manages over a thousand people! He's very good at judging people..."
After hearing what his brother-in-law said, Yao Youjun raised his head and looked at Chu Tian with sparkling eyes. His excited expression seemed as if he was about to devote himself to Chu Tian, which made Chu Tian feel uncomfortable and turned away without looking at him.
Yao Xiujuan glanced at Yao Youjun and softened her tone when speaking to Chu Tian. "Brother Tian, I'm worried that he might offend someone when he goes to work!"
Chu Tian chuckled, "Youjun is already an adult. He will slowly learn how to treat people. I believe he won't offend anyone easily!"
Then he winked at Yao Youjun and said, "Youjun, right?"
Yao Youjun received the look from his brother-in-law and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, sister, I'm already eighteen and can take responsibility for myself!"
Yao Xiujuan was defeated for a while, and sighed, "Okay."
Chu Tian walked over and helped her sit on the kang, "Okay, it's getting late, you should rest."
Seeing Yao Xiujuan nodded slightly, she turned around and instructed Yao Xiuli, "Xiuli, make a bowl of milk powder for your eldest sister and Wu Ya respectively. Be careful, make sure your eldest sister finishes it."
Yao Xiuli nodded repeatedly, "Brother-in-law, I will make sure that my sister finishes drinking!"
“····”
Yao Xiujuan frowned. Brother Tian always said that milk powder was good, but she didn’t think it tasted good!
