Fried bean paste noodles
Ji Weiqing's expression didn't change at all, as if he was chatting with someone unimportant. He handed her the cup of water.
"The neighbor next door is a good friend of my eldest sister."
Song Shixia was drinking hot water from an enamel cup that was bigger than her face. Her eyes darted around on him, and it was unclear what evil intentions she had in mind.
Ji Weiqing woke up the three kids on the bed.
"It's time to get up and eat."
Song Shixia put down the water cup: "Is it time to eat? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I didn't even go to the kitchen to help."
She thought dinner would be a while later.
Ji Weiqing said slowly, "Mom and elder sister are cooking in the kitchen. You can't squeeze in."
Song Shixia sat down again.
Downstairs, Han Rong was cooking and her eldest daughter was lighting the fire. The mother and daughter were chatting about family matters while cooking.
"Your brother is very lucky to marry Xiao Song. Xiao Song is gentle and kind-hearted, and both children love her sincerely."
Ji Ran was surprised: "Yang Yang also accepted her?"
Han Rong smiled and said, "I'm embarrassed to call you mom, but behind your back I call you mom more intimately than my brother."
Ji Ran showed some more genuine love: "You are right, Xiao Song. Our Yang Yang is not even close to Yu Fang. Yu Fang is a married woman with a child and should be better at taking care of the child, but Yang Yang doesn't like her."
"That's right, so it depends on the rapport. Yangyang doesn't like Yufang's always sad face, and he has seen her beat the children. The child is very sensitive and is afraid that his brother will be bullied."
Ji Ran sighed: "Yu Fang had a hard time too. She probably got angry because the child was disobedient and that's why she hit him. After all, he was a piece of her flesh that fell from her body, so she must be feeling bad."
"Her daughter is the same age as Yangyang. The problem of a child this young cannot be solved by beating him. Didn't you see Yangyang and Yuanyuan circling around Xiaosong when she was taking care of the children? If she said go east, the two boys would not go west."
"Mom, I'm curious about what you said. I want to see my brother and sister-in-law take care of the children. These two troublemakers in my family will tear down the roof if they don't get beaten up one day."
At this point, Han Rong was not very satisfied: "You and Chen Kang are just making your child naughty. How can you bully your own cousin?"
Ji Ran smiled bitterly and said, "How can we control them? My mother-in-law treats them like the apple of her eye. I want to use the method I used to treat students to change their bad habits. If my mother-in-law knew, she would be very angry with me."
"Thanks to you for giving birth to two sons, otherwise your life would be difficult."
Ji Ran felt a little bitter in her heart. Who said it wasn't true? She was determined to marry Chen Kang at first, but after marriage she realized that love was only the most basic thing, and marriage was the beginning of the test.
Han Rong saw that her daughter looked unhappy and comforted her: "You have finally made it through. Your mother-in-law should be content with having two sons and a daughter."
Her mother-in-law would never be satisfied, and kept saying "more children means more blessings" at home. Fortunately, Chen Kang warned the family and firmly supported the family planning policy, and threatened to get a sterilization to make the mother-in-law give up.
Ji Ran thought about it again and again: "Mom, I will send the two children to your house during the summer vacation. Please ask my brother and sister-in-law if they can discipline them for me. I am worried that my mother-in-law will spoil them to the point of lawlessness and make irreparable mistakes in the future."
"Okay, if Xiao Song is too busy, I will go live with the third sister for a while and help her cook. If she can't help, let the children spend the summer vacation with me, away from your mother-in-law."
Ji Ran was very grateful.
"Chen Kang has been busy with his promotion in the past six months, and I am now in charge of three classes. If they were as sensible as Yan Zi, I wouldn't have to worry so much."
"I've always said that your mother-in-law is blind. She doesn't like concubines, but Xueyan is the most promising child in your family."
Speaking of his daughter, Ji Ran felt much better.
"Xueyan is a good child, she is most like me."
Ji Yanran was lying on the sofa, holding her lower abdomen. She waited for a long time but there was no second wave of pain. It seemed that drinking hot water had worked.
If dysmenorrhea cannot be cured, I wonder if she will be able to bring hot water into the examination room during the college entrance examination next year.
She is very punctual, but the unlucky days are the days before the college entrance examination. Sometimes midterm exams or final exams coincide with her menstrual period and affect her normal performance.
In the eyes of the teacher, she became a student with unstable grades, but her homeroom teacher happened to be a man, so she could only grit her teeth and bear it.
Ji Yanran felt like she was alive again.
She went to the kitchen and asked, "Mom, do you need my help?"
Han Rong felt sorry for the little girl: "Go and rest by yourself. Does your stomach hurt anymore?"
"I feel much better after drinking half a cup of hot water. Now I can move around a little."
Ji Ran said: "Both red dates and longans can replenish qi and blood, so I guess they have some effect."
Ji Yanran: "Then I'll use a pair of chopsticks to pick up two red dates and longans to eat. The tea I drink is indeed slightly sweet, maybe it will really help."
Han Rongcai said rudely, "If it really works, I'll buy you a truckload of red dates and longans for you to eat every day."
Ji Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's not good to take too much tonic. Just take something tonic during menstruation."
"I ate a lot, and drinking chicken soup didn't help. Everyone in my family is in good health, but your sister has been weak and sickly since she was a child."
Ji Ran thought that his sister was born when his mother was old, so he did not add fuel to the fire.
Ji Yanran went upstairs and ran into the three guys.
She rubbed the hair of each one: "Have the three little pigs woken up?"
They are not little pigs! The little guys are angry but dare not speak out.
Ji Yanran coaxed them into her room.
"Yangyang, is your new mother good to you?"
Ji Weiqing sent the child out. Song Shixia thought he was going to change his clothes, but unexpectedly he pressed her shoulders from behind.
Song Shixia didn't understand what he was trying to say.
"What's wrong?"
Ji Weiqing didn't understand why he felt guilty: "Before, my mother and elder sister wanted to match me up with Yu Fang, but I didn't agree."
Song Shixia pushed the man step by step to the bed and sat him down.
Her eyes were dangerous: "Do you still want to say that you two were childhood sweethearts?"
"I have no connection with her, so it doesn't count."
She sat on his lap, face to face, with her arms around his neck.
"No more?"
Ji Weiqing was afraid that she would fall, so he had to put his hands on both sides of her waist: "It's gone."
Song Shixia believed in his character. He was an innocent man who would be shy even on his wedding night. He would not be able to open up without someone's guidance. Anyone who had a crush on him was like flirting with a blind man.
She happened to overhear his conversation with his sister and hid at the corner of the stairs to avoid embarrassing the siblings.
She guessed that Ms. Yu Fang must have had a crush on Ji Weiqing a long time ago, and was still upset about his divorce.
Maybe if she hadn't been there, Yu Fang would have been the mother of two kids.
But love is unpredictable. Ji Weiqing would rather go on a blind date with a stranger than accept Yu Fang, who is favored by her family. It is obvious that they are not suitable for each other.
Song Shixia lightly bit a kiss on his collarbone, which he could cover with his shirt.
As a result, she watched him open the closet, change his wrinkled shirt, and put on a round-neck shirt.
The kiss mark was faintly visible in the place that was originally covered by the collar of the shirt.
Song Shixia raised her head and said, "Do you want to harm me?" If her mother-in-law and sister-in-law saw her, she would be killed on the spot.
Ji Weiqing was confused. Wasn't she doing this to assert her sovereignty? He must have understood it correctly this time.
Song Shixia looked at him with an innocent face, as if she was a bad guy who had committed a heinous crime. Forget it, she pretended not to see it and thought he was bitten by a mosquito.
Song Shixia did not enter the kitchen, but what was cooked today were the rice dumplings she brought. Because the rice dumplings were small in size and had many flavors, Han Rong took them out and put them on the plate.
Ji Ran teased: "My sister-in-law made the dumplings really small."
Han Rong picked up the last zongzi.
"Yes, it's so small that I finished it in one bite."
Ji Ran took a bite of the salted egg yolk filling.
"It's not that exaggerated. One for each person is great. We've been eating candied date rice dumplings for several meals every year and we're tired of them."
Han Rong shook her head: "You young people don't know how to appreciate the blessings you have. You will get sick of eating rice dumplings."
Before the game of Go between Ji Xueya and his son-in-law was decided, someone in the living room started calling for dinner.
"Let's go, let's eat first."
He had been thinking about the rice dumplings for a long time and insisted on trying them. If he was not allowed to eat meat, it would be okay to eat rice dumplings!
Ji Xueya had a hidden illness, and the results of the physical examination told him to eat less oil and meat. For half a month, the food at home was like feeding rabbits, without a single bit of oil or water.
When he was young, he risked his life to protect his country. Wasn't it just to settle down and have a good meal? !
There was an enamel cup belonging to someone else in the living room, and he gulped down the remaining tea.
Ji Xueya smacked his lips and said, "This tea is good. Who added sugar to it? Why does it taste a little sweet?"
Chen Kang casually took out a can of tea from the tea table.
"Is this it?"
Ji Xueya glanced at the handwritten label: "Red Dates, Longans and Rose Tea? Oh, it looks like something for women to drink."
Ji Ran came out with the dishes: "Dad, you finished drinking Yanran's water, she will make trouble with you again later."
"What's wrong with drinking her water? I'm still her father!"
Chen Kang took out the raw tea cake.
Ji Xueya glanced at it inadvertently and said: "Good stuff, this tea fragrance is Pu'er tea!"
Ji Xueya and his son-in-law divided the tea in half, and put the scented tea for the woman aside.
He couldn't help but complain: "Why make scented tea? It's a waste of tea leaves."
Han Rong passed by her husband and said: "Just be content. You picked out some to drink. This is Xiao Song's thoughtfulness."
Ji Xueya waved his hands impatiently: "Oh, I know, serve the food quickly."
When Song Shixia went downstairs, the first things he saw were the capital's specialty dishes, including Kung Pao Chicken, Shredded Pork with Beijing Sauce, and Fried Noodles with Beijing Sauce, as well as some home-cooked dishes.
Han Rong wiped her hands and said, "If it were winter, we would have eaten shabu-shabu at home. Unfortunately, eating it in this season will make me feel hot and irritated."
She smiled again and said, "I've ordered Quanjude tonight. I'll take you to eat authentic roast duck and invite your brother to come along."
Before Song Shixia could refuse on behalf of her brother, she was forced to sit down.
"What are you two men doing sitting there shaking your heads? Come and have your meal."
Ji Xueya and his son-in-law were in a very mysterious state, which was similar to that of a drunk person, commonly known as tea drunkenness.
Song Shixia pushed Ji Weiqing and said, "Pour some hot water for Dad and brother-in-law. They look like they are drunk on tea."
Han Rong was both angry and amused: "You always brag about your alcohol tolerance, but it turns out you can get drunk even when drinking tea!"
Ji Yang and Ji Yuan watched the excitement with curiosity. After Ji Yanran greeted her sister-in-law, she stepped aside to reduce her presence.
Her sister-in-law was so pretty, she suddenly understood why her brother didn’t like Sister Yu Fang.
A carefree personality is very important. Sister Yu Fang is too petty and prone to wild thoughts.
After much trouble and confusion, the drunk tea drinker was finally woken up and everyone was finally able to sit down and eat.
Han Rong picked up a piece of meat for her with her chopsticks and said, "Don't be shy. This is your home. Eat whatever you want. There are not so many rules for eating at home."
Song Shixia wanted to eat noodles with soybean paste, and Ji Weiqing and she had the same idea and took the initiative to serve it for her.
The side dishes for fried noodles are very complete, including soybeans, diced celery, mung bean sprouts, cucumber shreds, carrot shreds, etc. The smell of the freshly-out-of-the-pot sauce makes people's appetite grow.
Han Rong prepared a bowl for herself: "I didn't make a staple food. Today I only have rice dumplings and noodles with soybean paste."
Just as Song Shixia was about to start eating, a gentle female voice came from the living room door.
"Has Auntie just started eating? It seems I came at the wrong time."
I watched Parents before and really liked the atmosphere in the show. There weren’t any particularly bad people, it was just everyone enjoying the little things that parents do.
I was so sleepy that I fainted. I took a quick look and waited for me to wake up to catch bugs.
