Coming to the stove, Zhou Xiuying took a look at the things in the big bowl. They had fried them black, which showed that they had overcooked them.
She reached for one and took a bite, unable to resist commenting.
He sighed twice and said, "This one has sugar in it. It's sweet and delicious, but it's burnt."
As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves neatly.
"Auntie, let me come. It's really heartbreaking to see you two wasting food like this."
Jiang Baige felt that she had fried it quite well and retorted, "It wasn't ruined at all. It was a little dark, but it actually tasted pretty good."
She was not convinced and picked up another one and ate it.
She picked up one, blew it, and fed it to Zhou Xiuying's mouth.
He looked at her with sparkling eyes, waiting for her comment.
“Isn’t it delicious?”
Zhou Xiuying chewed it twice and said, "Mm, delicious."
As he spoke, his hands did not stop.
There was still a lot of oil in the pot. After Zhou Xiuying took over, Grandma Meng went to add firewood.
Zhou Xiuying ordered, "Auntie Meng, lower the heat a bit. If it's too high, it will burn."
Both of them are masters at cooking in the kitchen, so Jiang Baige has nothing to do.
Jiang Baige said, "I'll go out and find Jiaojiao. She likes sweet food the most."
The dog raised by Jiang Baige now follows Chen Jiaojiao outside every day, and she has even run wild with her.
Fortunately, when they came back, Siyan still knew to go home, otherwise she would have considered giving up the dog.
Jiang Baige walked towards the threshing ground and took out the letter from his pocket.
This letter was written by her father. He knew that she had a boyfriend here. As long as she could live a good life, they had no objection and would not stop her.
The letter also said that life in the city was difficult now, and if there was a good family here, she should get along well with them.
He also said that once it was confirmed, he would write home to tell them.
Jiang Baige didn't expect that Jiang's parents would be so open-minded. If they really got married, it would be like marrying far away, and it would not be easy to see each other in the future.
Jiang Baige took a deep breath. It was rare to find parents who loved their daughter so much in this era.
After reading the letter, she put it back into the envelope.
He sighed, "What a pity! If Chen Jianguo's situation isn't explained clearly, they'll just be strangers in the future."
Thinking about Chen Jianguo, she felt upset. If he didn't give a reasonable explanation, they would be finished.
As she lowered her head to the threshing floor, she almost bumped into someone.
Zhang Yan was almost hit by someone. She quickly covered her stomach and cried out "ouch".
"Ouch! You're blind!"
Hearing the sarcastic voice, Jiang Baige looked up and saw that it was Zhang Yan, whom she had not seen for several days.
When their eyes met, neither of them gave the other a good look.
Jiang Baige glanced at her and then stepped aside.
When Zhang Yan looked up and saw Jiang Baige, she immediately frowned.
She said angrily, "You don't even watch where you're walking. What if you bump into my stomach?"
"There's no sound when you walk, you must be doing it on purpose!"
Jiang Baige was speechless. This woman was so unreasonable.
He looked at her quietly for a moment and said, "You're silent too! It's like you're the only one with a temper."
Staring at Zhang Yan's face, he saw the basket in her hand.
Jiang Baige asked, "You're pregnant, and you're still picking wild vegetables. Aren't you afraid of getting tired?"
"Besides, we both have responsibilities. Why are you blaming me instead of asking yourself if you are at fault?"
She was tall and well-proportioned, and when she stood next to Zhang Yan, her aura completely overshadowed her.
Zhang Yan didn't know what to say to refute her.
He snorted, "I don't want to bother with you."
Then I headed towards home.
If she had not married Chen Erlaizi, she would be dressed neatly and beautifully now.
She looked down at her gradually bulging belly. Now that she was pregnant, she hadn't made new clothes yet. She was still wearing the clothes she wore when she came. At that time, she was fat, so the clothes were a little loose.
When she came back, she had lost weight and the clothes she made were much smaller. Now that her belly is bigger, she can't wear them.
There are no cloth coupons now, so you can’t even buy cloth.
After opening the door, she was very angry and threw the basket of wild vegetables as soon as she entered.
When Chen Erlaizi first promised to marry her, he had asked her to stay home and take good care of her pregnancy. Now she is the one who digs wild vegetables and cooks at home.
The old woman went out to talk to people all day, making the excuse that she was very busy, but she came back at dinner time.
And the useless man she married didn't have to work in the village, and no one knew where he had gone.
Now compared with the educated youth in the compound, she is a joke.
She threw away the wild vegetables in anger, but when she thought about cooking, she picked them back up.
Pour the wild vegetables into the basin and start washing them.
Whether the mother and son eat or not is none of her business. She is hungry now and has to cook to fill her stomach.
Before Jiang Baige reached the threshing ground, she heard the voices of Chen Jiaojiao and the others.
He cleared his throat and called out, "Jiaojiao, are you home?"
Chen Jiaojiao agreed from a distance, "Hey, I'll be right there."
There were more than a dozen children in the village, but Jiang Baige only asked Chen Jiaojiao to go back.
It’s not that I’m reluctant to give it to them, but I’m afraid that they will go home and show off to their family members after eating it.
Other people's families are reluctant to use oil when cooking. If you knew that they were using half a pot of oil to fry food, it would definitely arouse others' jealousy.
She hadn't been in the village for just a day or two. Everyone was poor and well. If you were rich, it would be your fault. It would be strange if others didn't report you, so she didn't dare to gamble.
