Before, Xie Zhengchuan and his three brothers had discussed with their father not to let him contract so much land. If he and Xie Qi were to cultivate more than ten acres of land at once, they would be exhausted.
But the old man insisted on taking on so much land. Later, I heard from Xie Qi that the old man felt that he and his wife had little ability and little money. With so many grandchildren, as grandparents they had to save some money for the children so that they could give them some gifts when they got married.
When Su Li heard Xie Qi say this, she felt very sad. Even if she and Xie Zhengchuan and their other sons and daughters-in-law gave the two old people more money and things, they were still reluctant to spend them.
Some time ago, Xie Zhenghe bought two cans of malted milk and sent them to his father, hoping that the old man would have some body to replenish his body. He went to work before dawn every day, fearing that his father would not be able to bear it.
Unexpectedly, there were three cans of malted milk and a can of food in the old man's cupboard that had expired. The old man felt very distressed and was reluctant to throw them away. One of the cans of malted milk was almost empty.
Xie Zhenghe was so angry that he had a heart attack. He packed up everything without saying anything, put the things he bought in there, and wanted to throw away the expired things when the old man wasn't paying attention.
Unexpectedly, he met Xie's father as soon as he went out. The two of them argued for two hours over a disagreement. Xie Zhenghe was helpless and jumped up in anger.
Xie's father was so angry that he kept humming and didn't want to talk to his eldest son for two or three days. He was finally scolded by Xie Qi.
Su Li thought that as her father-in-law grew older and his life became better and better, he actually became a bit like an old naughty boy, which was really funny.
Li Ruiying nodded and walked out of the kitchen with a smile. Oh, this is a good bone. I must eat it to my heart's content today.
There were two cucumbers, four large tomatoes and a handful of beans on the cutting board.
There were also potatoes, onions, peppers and a piece of pork belly in the kitchen cupboard.
Ever since Su Li gave birth to the child, there has never been a shortage of meat in the family.
Seeing so many ingredients, Su Li had an idea in her mind. She first cooked a pot of rice and then heated up a dozen steamed buns.
I peeled a few cloves of garlic, mashed a cucumber with garlic, took six eggs and two large tomatoes, and made a large plate of fragrant scrambled eggs with tomatoes, cooked a large pot of braised pork with potatoes, and fried a large plate of peppers and beans.
I took some onions and two tomatoes and cooked a pot of borscht. I thought about the children. Although it would not be very delicious to eat in the evening, I hadn't cooked for them for a long time. So I made a large plate of fried bananas and caramelized apples. I didn't make much, just for the children to taste.
She had never made these two dishes before, and the children had never eaten them yet.
After a large table of dishes was prepared, Xie's father and Xie Zhengchuan also returned home.
Xie Zhengchuan knew his wife was cooking when he saw so many dishes.
"Didn't I tell you to take a rest? Why are you cooking again?"
Li Dan and his friends were very happy just now when they heard what Xie Zhengchuan said, especially when they saw the fried bananas and candied apples, they couldn't take their eyes off them. But now they were only worried about their mother's health.
"Mom, are you tired? Let me give you a leg massage."
"Mom, can I give you a massage?"
"Mom, let me give you a hug"
......
Su Li looked at the children and felt very happy. "Mom is not tired. I haven't made delicious food for you in a long time. Today, mom specially made a few new dishes for you. Try them and see if they are delicious."
Hu Zi immediately glared and said, "My mother's cooking must be delicious. Everything my mother makes is delicious."
"That's right, everything my mom cooks is delicious, thank you mom, hehe..."
"No matter what delicious food mom makes, Baoya likes it."
Su Li was so much laughing by the children that she fell backwards. "Alright, alright, my darlings, wash your hands and have dinner. Grandpa, grandma, and grandma are all tired. They need to rest early after eating."
"Go wash your hands, wash your hands and eat."
The children washed their hands first, then returned to the main room to sit and wait for dinner. The three siblings, Jinghui, Jinghan and Jingyu, were licking their fingers after feeding.
Xie Qi asked them all to go and eat, while he stayed in the room to look after the children. Su Li wanted to take her place, but was kicked out. She had no choice but to go back to the main room to eat first. Thinking that she could eat faster, she took Xie Qi's place and asked her to hurry up and eat as well.
Li Ruiying took out two bottles of loose wine from the cupboard and poured a glass for Xie Zhengchuan and Xie's father, motioning Su Li to speak.
Su Li suppressed her slightly embarrassed expression, thinking that her mother didn't need to wink at her so blatantly. Didn't she see that everyone at the table, young and old, was looking at her?
"Well, haven't I been busy teaching my eldest sister-in-law how to use a sewing machine recently? A few days ago, I made two sample skirts and asked Su Lan and Su Fang to wear them to the county town. I didn't expect that today I would have more than 60 orders. I can earn nearly four hundred yuan, so I took advantage of the good time today and cooked some dishes for our family to have fun."
"Mom is so great." Baoya immediately put down her chopsticks and applauded Su Li. The little girl has always admired her unconditionally.
"Thank you, baby. After a while, mommy will make a skirt for you too."
"Thank you, mom, hehe..."
"Mom, I think you're awesome too. No one's mother is as awesome as mine."
"Brother, do you want new clothes too?" Shi Tou asked ruthlessly.
"Hahaha... No..."
Su Li also found Hu Zi's look funny. As soon as she smiled, she met Xie Zhengchuan's eyes. The man looked at her with a half-smile, as if something was wrong.
Su Li blinked several times before she cut off the tension between the two of them and warned him to be more restrained.
But Xie Zhengchuan said to her as if nothing had happened: "You must be tired after cooking so many dishes and being busy all day."
Su Li was afraid that Li Ruiying would not let her do anything when she came back, so she said quickly: "No, I'm not tired at all. I'm full of energy right now. I've recovered a long time ago and can do all the housework."
"Oh~ I'm not tired~" This dragging sound is very easy to make people associate.
Su Li seemed to react in an instant. That person was drawing lines there just now. It was obvious that he was greedy. Was it true?
The corners of his mouth twitched and he lowered his head to eat.
After the meal, Xie's father, smoking an old man's cigarette, stood with his hands behind his back and was about to leave. Xie Zhengchuan wanted to see him off, but he refused and walked away humming a little tune.
Before eating, Li Ruiying packed some food for Xie Qi and kept it warm in an iron pot, and the children kept her company while she ate.
After Xie Zhengchuan washed the dishes, he started to boil water to prepare for a bath.
After washing up, the children went back to their rooms to play. Su Li asked them and they knew they didn't have any homework tonight. The two mothers also went back to their rooms to coax the children.
After Su Li washed up, she went back to her room to draw. She wanted to let the two girls wear a new style when delivering the goods, so that she could get more orders if they were not prepared.
Xie Zhengchuan took a very quick shower tonight. When he returned to the room, he looked at Su Li with sharp eyes. Su Li felt hot all over and couldn't avoid his gaze. The hand holding the pen was shaking and sweat was coming out of her palms.
In the silent room, the breathing of two people could be clearly heard. Xie Zhengchuan met Su Li's gaze and slowly moved to the kang.
The two of them completed a very grand interaction together. The moon blushed with shame and hid in the clouds, not daring to see anyone.
