Chapter 118 Mother Chen
Although the eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan changed his mind quickly, he was still caught and sprayed by his mother Chen. The eldest brother refused to say another word.
So when the eldest brother saw Zhu Ping'an entering the door with Zhu's father, he just kept shouting "Mother, mother." He kept shouting this word. He was too excited to say any unnecessary words.
"No matter how much you call me a mother, you are still a white-eyed wolf. After you marry a daughter-in-law, you forget about your mother. This daughter-in-law has not even married yet, and she thinks the food cooked by her is not delicious." Mother Chen heard this. The eldest son kept calling me mother, but he still hadn't recovered from what he just said about the restaurant outside having better food.
"Mom, I'm back." Zhu Pingan followed Zhu's father into the house with his luggage on his back. When he saw his mother Chen from a distance, he shouted.
"Aren't you always here?" Mother Chen thought it was her eldest son who was speaking. After saying this, she felt something was wrong. She raised her head and looked at the door, and saw her youngest son carrying a bag on his back and walking in dusty. .
Mother Chen’s first reaction was surprise
Then her second reaction was anger
But she was angry
Step forward in three steps and two steps
It was a slap
A slap fell on the big shoulder of Zhu's father, Zhu Shouyi, and the voice kept ringing. At the same time, his mother Chen's Hedong lion's roar sounded:
"Zhu Shouyi, you are blind. , haven’t you seen that my son is starving and thin outside, all the way away? When we came back, you asked him to carry things alone, which made my son unable to straighten his back. You are so tall and thick, you are just for show!” That's right, I also wanted to carry my luggage just now, but Xie'er insisted on carrying it myself.
Father Zhu looked at Mrs. Chen aggrievedly, covering his arm that had been slapped by Mrs. Chen, but did not dare to say a word.
"Mom, it's my responsibility, it's none of Dad's business." Zhu Pingan quickly stepped forward to help his father out.
When mother Chen looked at Zhu Pingan, she was completely different from the way she looked at Zhu's father just now.
When I looked at Father Zhu just now, he was as cold as the autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves.
When I look at Zhu Pingan now, it is as warm and caring as spring.
"Xie'er, don't speak for him. Put down your bag and let mom take a good look. Why is mom seeing you losing weight again? Are you reluctant to eat outside? Mom always feels like giving it to you before leaving. There is less money, and there are still rumors for a few days He said that you were robbed, which made my mother worry for a long time. If you hadn't asked someone to come back with a letter, I would have had to go with your father to see you. Hey, why did your mother think that you have grown taller? Oh, why is it so dark? So much.”
"A few days ago, the town announced with gongs and drums that you came first in the exam, and they even sent ten taels of silver, which they said was a reward from the county. They also said that you would continue studying outside, and I wasn't happy about it. There is nothing better than home outside. Mom gives you lots of delicious food every day."
Mother. Mrs. Chen quickly walked up to Zhu Pingan, took off the luggage Zhu Pingan was carrying, stuffed it into the arms of Zhu's father who was aside, and gave Zhu's father a hard look, and then gently pulled Zhu Pingan to it. Looking around carefully, it seemed as if Zhu Pingan had just come off the battlefield.
Zhu's father held his luggage in both hands and stood together with his eldest son Zhu Pingchuan. He looked at Zhu Ping'an who was treated tenderly by Mrs. Chen, and his envy was beyond words.
It is estimated that what the two of them were thinking at this time was why they were all the same family and why there was such a big gap.
After her mother, Mrs. Chen, checked her, she rushed to the kitchen and said she wanted to simmer a bowl of chicken soup to replenish Zhu Ping'an, who had "lost weight due to hunger." No one could hold him back.
"I'm back, brother." The eldest brother was not good at expressing himself. He rubbed his hands and said, then as if he thought of something, he ran to his room. After a while, he took out a honeycomb from the room and went into the kitchen again.
"Mom, give the honey to Brother Zhi." The eldest brother's voice came from the kitchen.
Then the mother Chen’s teasing voice came out, “Hey, didn’t you go to the mountains to fiddle with these and send them to your in-laws’ family?”
“There are many more in the mountains. ." The elder brother's embarrassed voice came out immediately.
Zhu's father and Zhu Ping'an looked at each other in the yard. After a while, Zhu's father said, "Go to the room and change into clean clothes. Your mother has made two more sets of clothes for you."< br>
You said
This taught me how to miss home.
The deep love at home can melt the ice of the entire North Pole and Antarctica, and you can instantly become immersed in love and being loved.
When Zhu Ping'an changed into clean and fresh clothes and came out, his mother Chen had already simmered the chicken soup. The rich chicken soup was fragrant. There were mushrooms, green vegetables and ginger slices in the chicken soup, which was full of color, flavor and aroma. Mother Chen made chicken soup and two more dishes, filling a large table full of food.
Zhu Pingan was so full from this meal that even if he stuffed another peanut, he would reach the critical point and vomit it out. She even had to walk with a hungry stomach, and even her mother, Mrs. Chen, suspected that Zhu Ping'an hadn't eaten enough.
Before going to bed, Zhu Pingan gave the gifts he selected from the town to his mother Chen and his father Zhu. Chen put on her silver earrings with a smile on her face, but she disapproved of Zhu Pingan's wasteful spending; Holding the wine jar in his hand, he looked carefully up and down, left and right, with a smile on his face.
As for my grandfather’s gift, let’s go to the old house tomorrow.
That night, Zhu Pingan stopped reading. After taking a bath, he put his tired but stretched body on the bed, planning to go to his old house first and then to his mentor's house tomorrow. Lying on the bed at home, not only does my body get a rest, but I also feel that my soul has found a resting place and rested, getting a complete rest from the inside out. I fell asleep quickly after lying on the bed. I slept deeply and comfortably, and I was completely rested at home.
When he woke up, the sky was already slightly bright. As usual, Zhu Pingan got up and started practicing calligraphy on the big stone in the yard.
"Xie'er, why are you up so early again? You just came back. Go and get some sleep." As usual, my mother, Mrs. Chen, was the first to get up and saw her sitting in front of a stone, practicing calligraphy with water. Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but said with concern.
"No need, Mom, I went to bed early last night." Zhu Ping'an said with a naive smile.
My mother, Mrs. Chen, did not insist. She washed herself and went to prepare breakfast.
Then, the family members got up one after another. They were not surprised that Zhu Pingan got up so early to practice calligraphy. They were used to him practicing calligraphy regardless of rain or shine.
Early in the morning, mother Chen prepared a table of delicious dishes. The leftover stewed chicken from last night, three freshly made hot dishes early in the morning, and a plate of home-pickled cucumbers were cooked. A pot of fragrant rice porridge.
While outside, he really missed the pickles made by his mother at home. With the pickled cucumbers, Zhu Pingan drank three bowls of rice porridge in a row before finishing it, which made his mother Chen very satisfied.
After breakfast, a new day begins. (End of this chapter)
