Chapter 127 It’s so embarrassing
Zhu Juying and Uncle Guai looked at each other and nodded with satisfaction. This child looks similar to Shen Meng. Although he is one year younger than Xiangxiang, there is a big difference. Not bad. Besides, with the sister-in-law Shen Meng here, her daughter could still endure the injustice. The two of them were talking and looking back and forth at the two children.
Lu Xiangxiang blushed at the sight and kept looking at Shen Meng, hoping that she could save him.
Fortunately, Lu Zhenping had packed up the two fish over there. He waved to Shen Meng. Lu Xiangxiang saw the opportunity and stood up when Shen Meng stood up. He took her arm and left the main room. .
“Sister-in-law Meng, I will go with you.”
Shen Meng glanced behind him, lowered his head and whispered: "Look at you, even if I'm not here to see you, you can still be regarded as Zhenping's sister. You can just rest at my house and don't have to work."
" I feel uncomfortable, sister-in-law, you didn’t look at my parents, I was scared when I looked at them.”
Lu Qinlan and Su Xiaomei said hello and followed them out, and also called Shen Xiaobin out.
"Xiao Bin, go help my sister-in-law to fetch two more buckets of water and help wash the dishes. Your brother and the others will be back in a while, and we will have dinner just in time."
"Hey ! Okay;" He agreed and then turned to Uncle Guai and Zhu Juying and said, "Uncle, Auntie, I'll go out first. Mom and dad, you can talk back later!"
"Okay, okay, okay."
Uncle Guai was the first to agree, and the four old men looked at each other and knew what was going on.
They are not satisfied yet. They have to let the two young people talk and understand each other before they know whether the marriage can happen. After Shen Xiaobin went out, he went to the kitchen to carry buckets, but he looked at the two full buckets. Shui looked at Lu Qinlan with questions.
"You are silly, I thought my sister-in-law really asked you to carry water. Go and take out some potatoes. Xiangxiang is washing onions and ginger. It just so happens that you can help me, so that the men and women can work together without getting tired!"
Shen Xiaobin: "."
No matching required, it’s not tiring to do this work alone!
After Lu Zhenping packed up the fish, he went out. Xiaohu took a few children out to play. He had to take the children home quickly so that they could eat before he could.
Lv Qinlan burned the pot and watched Shen Meng cook. She poured rapeseed oil into the pot, heated the oil and fried two fish wrapped in eggs and flour in the oil again and again, adding a little seasoning. Without putting it in, it was already so fragrant that it made people drool.
"I asked Xiaobin why he went to catch fish. It was obviously to see Xiaomeng come back. Do you want to have a full meal? Hahaha"
"No, Xiaomeng is supposed to be here. When you come to visit relatives, you shouldn’t have to put in that effort. It’s up to us to cook the food, but look at the taste, I can’t do it.”
Su Xiaomei kneaded the steamed buns of Sanhe Noodles on the chopping board and chatted about home life together.
Shen Meng has fried fish here and needs green onions, ginger and potatoes, but Shen Xiaobin always fails to come over. Lu Qinlan smiled and said: "Don't wait, there are ready-made ones in that small basket, cut them Okay, you can use it right away."
"Sister-in-law already knew that this idiot would never come back, right?" "No, I like this fragrance, not to mention the little one. As for Bin, this girl is down-to-earth. At first glance, he is from our family. If this can happen, my parents will be really worried."
Chen Meng sprinkled the green onions and ginger into the pot and chopped them. of red pepper and The potato pieces were also put in, a little salt and soy sauce were also added, stir-fried a few times, the fried fish was put into the pot, two ladles of water were added, and the soaked dried mushrooms were put into the pot. , covered the pot lid before looking at Lu Qinlan.
"Sister-in-law, I don't know if my parents can get rid of this worry, but I can cure your worry today."
Lu Qinlan was stunned for a moment, and looked at Shen inexplicably. Dream.
“Zhenping’s third brother Jiasheng is a carpenter. His master is old and has not done much work in the past two years. If there is any work, he will introduce it to him. He will find any carpentry work in the village commune. In his spare time, he would go to the mines to do some work. I made a lot of money in a year. When the family was not separated, all the money was given to my parents-in-law. Now that the family is separated, I can keep whatever I earn more or less in my own hands. Zhenping and I watched Xiaohu learn a lot at this age. The craftsmanship is just right. I have already told Jiasheng. He means that he has been an apprentice for three years. His family’s food, accommodation, and income from work all belong to the master. This is the rule in their industry. After learning, Xiaohu will keep it himself. He is good at craftsmanship, and we are all relatives. He has designated it well. Teach Xiaohu.”
Lu Qinlan didn’t want to be able to do it today. After hearing such good news, the family discussed letting their little baby go to school next year. The only thing she was worried about was Xiao Hu, who was already ten years old. Her sister-in-law had previously said that Xiao Hu should learn a craft, and she was also looking forward to it, but The sister-in-law and her husband had many things to do, and she didn't dare to mention them.
Everything she thought of was arranged, and she was immediately excited.
"Well, Xiaomeng, I didn't even think that you had already found a teacher for Xiaohu. Really, my sister-in-law doesn't even know how to thank you."
"It's okay, Jiasheng's house is a few steps away from ours. When the time comes, you can come to my house for dinner and take Mingyang’s children out to play.”
“Okay, okay, I have you.” With this sister-in-law here, I can still be afraid that he will be wronged, but after three years of room and board, Xiaohu has a lot to eat for a half-year-old boy. Isn’t this taking advantage of others? "
My own child? I'm a teenager now, and if my family didn't have enough food to eat, my noodle bowl would have been at its bottom long ago. A month's worth of food wouldn't be enough for half a month.
“Jiasheng has two children in his family. In the past, he could not only help the family with work, but also learn crafts. Besides, Jiasheng is a craftsman and earned a lot after the separation. How dare Jiasheng do this? He said, even if he has confidence in his heart, if he doesn’t have confidence in his heart, he won’t be willing to do it even for the sake of me and Zhenping, don’t worry, sister-in-law.”
"Hey, if you say that, I feel relieved."
The stewed chicken soup was poured out of the pot. Shen Meng fried a plate of leeks and eggs, and made some fried bacon with cabbage, flattened pork belly and vermicelli. Old Pumpkin made a stew with Sanhe noodle steamed buns on top.
Su Xiaomei just picked up the steamed buns into the pot. The potatoes, green onions and ginger that had been waiting for a meal were brought back by Shen Xiaobin and Lu Xiangxiang. The two of them looked at the three people in the room and all looked at them. , and his face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
“Hey, the rice is ready, so you brought the onions and ginger over. Xiaobin, you can’t work so slowly in the future!”
It sounded obvious to the sister-in-law. As a joke, Shen Xiaobin pursed his lips and glanced at Lu Xiangxiang secretly. Seeing that she was also blushing, she felt very happy!
"Sister-in-law, your words are getting more and more unforgiving, Xiangxiang, let's go."
"Huh?"
Lu Xiangxiang was slow to respond until Shen Xiaobin pulled her sleeves After coming out of the kitchen, she realized what she was hearing when she heard the laughter in the kitchen. She said "Ouch" and ran into the main room, covering her face.
Shen Xiaobin scratched his head in embarrassment. What was he doing just now? How could he just grab the girl's arm and run out? It's so embarrassing.
