"Big sister, you can eat with us too."
"Okay." She took two portions, one for the two of them, and she didn't want to go to the table outside.
Zhao Lihua stared at the banquet for a long time without picking up her chopsticks. She looked at her mother and elder sister, who were munching on steamed bread and eating vegetables, swallowed her saliva, and reached out to take a steamed bread as well. But she didn't dare say she couldn't eat more, otherwise her elder sister would lecture her again, saying that she had forgotten her old life and started to be particular after eating fine grains for a few days.
Last time she didn't eat at the banquet, not only was she scolded when she got home, but she was also punished by eating steamed buns and brown rice for three days, which made her want to cry.
Well, the steamed bread from my second uncle's mother's house is really disgusting! It's even more disgusting than the one she ate last time as punishment.
Second aunt-in-law is so bad. She has been cooking for decades, how come the cooking is still like this?
Zhao Xiaoyu watched Lihua for the entire time, feeling both distressed and amused as she struggled to swallow her steamed bread. The little girl had a playful nature, and sometimes it was impossible to leave her alone.
They are living a good life now, so it is necessary for them to recall the good and bad times occasionally.
Although Song Shi also felt that it was not tasty, she was used to not wasting food and was also used to the taste of steamed bread. She had wanted to eat it before but couldn't!
The people at the table wanted to complain about the poor food, but when they saw that Zhao Laosan and his family were eating in silence, they also fell silent.
Although Old Mrs. Sun was not happy either, she knew that she couldn't be the first to dislike the banquet hosted by her own son.
She ate until she burst into tears. She ate whole grains at home, and at the banquet, it was all whole grains and vegetables. Woo woo woo... She wanted to eat at the banquet at the third brother's house.
No, what's wrong with the second brother? Even if he doesn't do it particularly well, it can't be this bad, right?
They are not even ordinary in the village. Nowadays, when a family holds a banquet, they will have a big piece of meat and a chicken, and two bowls of coarse and fine grains as staple food.
Where's the chicken on the table? Not even a butt is missing! And she rolls her eyes at the steamed bread she's eating; she put too many husks in it.
The banquet would be an embarrassment to the Zhao family, so it would be better not to hold it at all.
Is the second family really that poor? No, they are busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, selling vegetables or farming every day, they should be rich, right?
It was too embarrassing. After today, Zhao Dayong from the old Zhao family would become the topic of gossip in the whole village. She was afraid that she would not dare to go out and gossip for several days. How could she gossip about her own son?
No one said anything, but it was obvious that no one was very satisfied with the meal. No one talked much at the banquet and no one drank. After the meal, everyone went their separate ways.
Wang hadn't expected her second brother's wife to be so stingy. It was just a few chickens, so why would she be so stingy? The meat was also cut too thinly. In short, she was a little superficial and unnecessary. After all, she didn't save much money.
However, the bride in the house was very satisfied with the meal. The eldest sister gave her both pieces of meat to eat, which made her feel satisfied both physically and mentally.
"Sister, are you full?"
"I'm full. How about you? Should I get you another steamed bread?"
"Thank you, big sister." She was still eating and didn't feel full at all. She had hardly eaten anything last night and was already dizzy with hunger.
Marrying into the Zhao family is great, at least you can have enough to eat. Who in the surrounding area doesn't want to marry into the Old Sow Village now?!
Zhao Zhaodi: ...
She went to get two more steamed buns and realized that her new sister-in-law was not being shy and polite.
This is good, no need to guess.
After finishing his meal, Zhao Dashu took his wife and children away. When he left, he also asked the mule cart he had borrowed to go with him.
The gifts they gave were not generous, almost the same as what Zhao Dawen gave. After all, he was the younger brother, so it was right for him to follow the big brother.
"Dad, the food at Second Uncle's house today is really terrible."
She accepted eating steamed bread, but at least it should be delicious. The taste of the other dishes was hard to describe.
