"Brother!"
"Brother~"
Seeing Chu Heng come in, the brothers Chu Qi and Chu Xue, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately ran over happily.
"Haha."
Chu Heng stretched out his hand and wiped his head, walked into the main room with a smile, and said to his second aunt who had just stood up from the sofa: "Are you leaving now? Second aunt.”
"Let's go." The second aunt held her round belly and walked over slowly.
"Slow down."
Chu Heng hurriedly stepped forward to help him, took the two little ones out of the yard together, and drove away.
When they returned to the Chu family's house in Banchang Hutong, Ni Yinghong and others were busy in the kitchen and started frying things. He and his second aunt had not entered the hospital yet, they were just standing at the gate. Outside, I could already smell a strong burnt aroma.
“There must be meatballs, I can smell them!”
Brother and sister Chu Qi and Chu Xue were drooling with greed. They hurriedly opened the ajar door and ran into the courtyard.
“These two greedy cats!” Chu Heng smiled and shook his head, helping his second aunt walk into the door.
As soon as the two of them passed the screen wall, they saw the smiling brother and sister coming out of the kitchen holding a bowl of freshly fried vegetarian meatballs and grinning as they put it into their mouths.
Xiao Chuxue has always been a considerate little cotton-padded jacket. When she saw them coming in, she quickly ran up with a small bowl in her hands, raised it high and brought it to them: "Mom, brother, try it, it's delicious. ”
“Tsk, it’s better to be a girl after all.” Chu Heng glanced at the little brother standing aside with disgust, and happily took a fried golden one from Chu Xue’s bowl. Pop the meatballs into your mouth.
The meatballs, which are fried with flour mixed with rice and some carrots, coriander and other ingredients, are crispy on the outside and soft and glutinous on the inside. Chu Heng's mouth is filled with fragrance, and everyone is silent after eating.
“These meatballs are good.”
The second aunt also ate one and praised it without hesitation.
“Second Aunt.”
“Come in quickly, Second Aunt.”
Xiao Ni and Qin Jingru walked out of the kitchen at this time, surrounded the second aunt with smiles, took over Chu Heng's hand and helped her to the backyard.
Chu Heng did not follow, but went into the kitchen after smelling the smell. He glanced at the baskets and baskets of fried goods placed in the room. He couldn't help but twitch his index finger and hurriedly stepped forward. a bamboo basket He took a piece of fried steak and took a bite, then walked to Yang Guizhi who was busy in front of the stove, looked at the vegetarian meatballs rolling in the pot, and asked: "Sister, what are you going to fry later?" "
Yang Guizhi stared closely at the pot to prevent the meatballs from frying: "Ying Hong said that he would fry some rice cakes later and eat them as snacks."
"Ah."
Chu Heng, who didn't like eating this, curled his lips when he heard this, then put the remaining spaghetti in his mouth into his mouth, grabbed a handful of meatballs from the basket next to him, and came out of the kitchen.
While eating, he walked to the backyard. As soon as he passed through the moon gate, he heard the loud cry of the little tiger girl coming from the main room.
"What's wrong?"
Chu Heng couldn't help but feel distressed, and quickly walked into the main room, and then saw the little guy leaning on his mother's arms with his head raised, pear blossoms in the rain. wailing loudly.
"No, what are you doing? Why did you provoke her during the Chinese New Year?" He frowned suddenly and scolded Qin Jingru.
“What did I do to offend her, brother?” The little girl yelled angrily, “She insists on eating the meatballs when she sees them eating them, and she cries when they are not allowed to eat them.”
"Tsk."
Chu Heng heard that this was the reason. No matter how much he spoiled Huniu, he didn't chant the curse now. The little guy's teeth haven't even grown yet. Normally, at most, Let her eat something soft. She really can't eat croquettes.
So he could only go over and hold Hu Niu in his arms, give her a piece of candy and deal with it first. While eating the sweet candy, the little Huniu stopped crying, but she still coveted those plain meatballs that looked golden and smelled delicious.
The ghostly little guy looked at Chu Qi and Chu Xue brother and sister, swallowed, and then saw her eyes rolling a few times, and then turned to look at the world. After being the best godfather, she struggled to get out of his arms, and quickly ran up to Chu Zhecheng who was being held by his second aunt and sitting on his lap playing with his short legs, and skillfully played with him. Got a handful on his crotch.
The prince who was playing with the rattle paused for a moment, turned his head and glanced at his sister, then continued to shake the tinkling toy nonchalantly.
Ever since Huniu realized that he could get hold of his younger brother Jill by asking his godfather to exchange for delicious food, he would be picked up at least three or four times a day, and he had already become immune to it.
After the little Huniu finished grabbing, she ran to Chu Heng with her little hands raised, blinking and looking at him pitifully, looking forward to getting another meatball to eat.
"What is she doing?"
The second aunt looked at the little guy's strange behavior in confusion and asked Xiao Ni and the others around her.
The women immediately explained the details to her.
“Oh my god, our little tiger girl is really clever.” After hearing this, the second aunt burst out laughing. She looked at the little guy dotingly and said, “You Give her something to eat, Tsuneko. She can't bite the outside of the meatballs, and she can't eat them. The inside is fine, no. You can’t eat more, so just eat one to satisfy your craving.”
“Why didn’t I think of that?”
Chu Heng, who was worrying about how to fool Hu Niu, hurriedly looked for Chu Qi. I ordered a meatball, broke it open and fed the soft and waxy parts to the little Hu Niu.
The little guy who finally ate it was immediately happy, his whole little face burst into smiles, and at the same time he became more convinced that grabbing his little brother Jill could change everything.
After coaxing the child for a while, Chu Heng suddenly remembered that the fruit at home was gone, so he stood up, returned Huniu to Qin Jingru, greeted the people in the house, said he went out to get some fruit, and then turned and left the yard.
After he drove the car straight out of Banchang Hutong, he didn't really go to buy fruit. Instead, he drove the car to a deserted place and ducked into the warehouse.
This summer, he stored a batch of fruit in the warehouse for winter consumption. Later, he also put a lot of fruit in it when he was in Hong Kong Island and Indonesia.
After Chu Heng entered the warehouse, he strolled to the area where he stored the fruits.
Looking at the pile of various kinds of fruits, he picked and packed some of each, and soon filled a large bag, weighing forty or fifty kilograms.
After putting a bunch of grapes that were afraid of being crushed into the bag, Chu Heng was about to leave when he suddenly noticed a box of durians that he had placed under the grape box and had almost forgotten about.
“I don’t know if they like it or not.”
Looking at the durian box, Chu Heng hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward to take one and put it in a bag, ready to take it back. Give them a taste.
Immediately, he didn’t stop any longer, turned around, took his things out of the warehouse and drove back.
After returning to Banchang Hutong and parking the car, he took out two bags from the car, put the big bag on his shoulders, and held a durian in a separate cloth bag in one hand. He trotted back to the courtyard with brisk steps.
When passing by the kitchen, Chu Heng stopped, smiled and greeted Yang Guizhi, who had fried the rice cakes and was finishing the finishing work: "Sister, don't be busy yet, I'll get some fruits back. I have your favorite big ones." Banana, let’s go to the backyard to eat some fruit and take a break.”
Yang Guizhi looked back. When I saw him carrying and resisting, I quickly put down what I was doing and ran forward to pick up the durians he was carrying: "Why do you get so many?"
"Our guests are celebrating the New Year. There must be a lot, so don’t get more.”
The two of them walked away while chatting, and soon entered the main room.
As soon as they entered the house, Yang Guizhi, who had not smelled anything when outside, suddenly frowned, picked up the durian bag, smelled it, and exclaimed: "Oh, why is it so smelly? This Is the fruit bad? ”
Chu Zhecheng, who was playing in my mother's arms, was also startled and quickly looked down at his crotch.
It’s not me!
I didn’t pull it!
