Chapter 101 Healthy Meal
“Tianxiu bought this? You are quite willing to do so.”
Tianxiu brought a plate of things home after school, and the second brother thought it was Tianxiu thought about scolding him, but he said that he bought it for ten yuan and wanted to use it to participate in the National Day activities. Kang Qirui just came home from get off work and sighed when he heard it. At this time, ten yuan can buy a lunch.
“I remember this thing has red fruits, what is it called?” Lao Dou forgot for a moment.
“It’s called the reunion fruit, it’s for the festival.” Tianxiu’s name is quite appropriate. Lao Dou thought for a while and said: "I remember that there is no fruit in this season."
"Ah?" Tianxiu was startled, but still said firmly: "I don't care, I just want to plant it." After that, he moved the potted plants inside to the patio garden.
"What the hell do you think Ayao is doing?" After helping Tianxiu put away the potted plants, Mommy walked out and said to everyone: "He just called me back and told me not to cook, and said he would wait. He just hung up after saying that. I didn’t even know what he was doing.”
After hearing this, Lao Dou was stunned and asked, “What are you going to eat at night if you don’t cook?” At that time, the second sister-in-law came back with Yumi and Azu, and Lao Dou asked: "Why are you all back?"
The second sister-in-law replied with a confused look: "I originally wanted to go shopping after work, but it turned out that Uncle San called and said he had something to discuss at home, so he came back." Yumi and Azu also nodded. "What's going on?" Lao Dou became even more confused.
"I didn't say anything. I said I would wait until my sister-in-law comes back to talk, and then I hung up the phone." As the second sister-in-law was talking, Brother Xianglan and Sachiko came back together, "The protagonist is back, Ah What happened to Yao?”
Xianglan said: "I don't know. He just said he needed my help, but he didn't say anything about it." Sachiko nodded and said, "He didn't tell me anything specific, he just said he didn't want me to work overtime today. I'll go home after get off work."
"Why don't you call and find out?" The boss just picked up the phone and was about to call Ayao. The old woman waved her hand and said, "No need to fight. I called, but no one picked up."
Kang Qirui: "What could that be? We want our whole family to come back."
Lao Dou: "He also told us not to cook."
Big Brother Guang: "He also said that he needed Xianglan's help if he had something to do."
Everyone thought about it, and suddenly Azu and Big Brother Guang said in unison: "Oh, is Ayao going to treat us all to dinner?"
"Yes, yes, it must be. Everyone, go quickly Let's change clothes and wait for Ayao to treat us to dinner." The second brother also agreed. But Kang Qirui thought it was impossible, "Didn't Third Brother say that I need my sister-in-law's help if I have something to do? Why do I need my sister-in-law's help to treat me to dinner? What can my sister-in-law help me with?"
"Didn't you say that? Ayao I need my sister-in-law to help me with something, so before I ask my sister-in-law for help, should I treat us to a meal and bribe us?" But the second brother felt that he was wrong. After hearing this, Kang Qirui also felt that this was possible and asked for help to treat him to a meal. It's indeed normal.
“But if we get it wrong, then we won’t even have food to eat?” The boss looked worried. Kang Qirui patted the boss Guang's shoulder and said comfortingly: "You must have something to eat. Didn't Third Brother say you don't need to cook? You must have something to eat, but it's hard to say what to eat." A Yao Since he can call back and say that there is no need to cook, no matter what happens to him, everyone will definitely not be hungry.
Dong dong dong dong "Ah Yao is back." When everyone heard the knock on the door, they all thought it was Ah Yao who was back. But when they opened the door, instead of seeing Ah Yao, they saw another familiar person. .
"Cousin?!" Everyone was a little disappointed when they saw cousin Bing coming in, and their tone was a little disappointed.
"What? Aren't you happy that I'm here?" Cousin Bing saw everyone's lack of interest and said, "I came specially to deliver moon cakes to you." When they heard that it was moon cakes, everyone was even more disappointed. I still can’t finish the two hundred moon cakes I made over the weekend. I’m tired of being eaten by my mother for breakfast every day these days.
“Here, one box for the whole family.” Cousin Bing began to distribute mooncakes, one box for Lao Dou’s mother, one box for Daguang Guangxianglan, one box for Erlao Ersao, and one box for Ayao Xingzi. Before Ayao came back, he gave a box to Sachiko, Kang Qirui and Zhu Wanling. He handed the last box to Azu and Yumi, "Azu and Yumi are not married yet, right? Then treat you as a family."< br>
After cousin Bing handed out the mooncakes, my mother took out a red envelope as a return gift, "A Bing, my aunt is giving this bonus to you." Cousin Bing firmly refused, "No, no, I I'm just passing by. I stopped by your house to see you, and I gave you moon cakes, and then I also treated you to a dinner. I wanted to talk to Azong about business."
"Business? What business?" The second brother was very confused. He really couldn't understand what kind of business his cousin Bing could have with him. When cousin Bing was about to answer the second brother, Ayao's business came from outside, "Hey, hey, hey, come over and help."
After hearing about A Yao's business, the second sister-in-law was the first to rush out to help and directly took the two big bags. "What is it? Is it so heavy?" the second sister-in-law asked doubtfully. The second guy helped A Yao sit down, "You are sweating profusely, let's have a sip of tea first."
A Yao took a sip of tea and gasped: "Don't go away. "Then he continued to drink tea and was tired from carrying a bunch of things. "Don't worry, we won't leave. We'll wait until you come back to pay the bill." The second guy said with a smile.
“Pay the bill?” Ah Yao almost choked while drinking tea, “What are you paying for?”
“Didn’t you call back and say you don’t need to cook? Isn’t that right? Do you want to treat us to dinner?" Kang Qirui asked. A Yaoteng suddenly stood up and said excitedly: "Oh, you have misunderstood."
"What? You don't want to invite me to dinner?" Everyone was even more excited than A Yao.
"Please, I invite." Ayao patted the things he just brought back, "But I need your help. I want to invite that Wanwan businessman back for dinner tonight."
After everyone heard this, they stared at the several bags on the table. The second sister-in-law couldn't wait to open it and look through it, "Ah? Chestnut rice? Chestnut rice flour, chestnut rice noodles, chestnut rice grains, are they all braised chestnuts?" The second sister-in-law said more and more The more I speak, the more speechless I become.
“There are many more things, including flour, millet, and sorghum.” A Yao said, opening other bags. "Authentic healthy meal." Cousin Bing sighed.
“That Wanwan businessman of yours eats quite strangely. Don’t you want our whole family to accompany you to eat baoli dinner?” asked the second brother, while cousin Bing took this opportunity to leave quietly. Well, he stayed away from this dinner.
"As my cousin said, it's healthy food, so we can just have one meal." Ayao also wanted to find his cousin Bing to support him, but when he turned around he didn't see his cousin Bing, "Well, why did you just leave? ?”
The boss didn’t even see cousin Bing when he walked outside, and didn’t care about him. He came back and said to Ah Yao: "A Yao, you want to invite that Wanwan businessman to dinner, why do you want our whole family to accompany you?" He was forced to eat five bowls of the noodles made by Pandan yesterday. He was really tired of it. .
"That's it. Didn't I tell everyone yesterday? I had a very uncomfortable meal with that Wanwan businessman. It turned out that he was a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War and he was from southern Henan. , this time he came back both for business and to find relatives. Unexpectedly, he went back to the countryside but found no relatives, so he was in a bad mood and was not even in the mood to eat. Today he told us that he was going back to Wanwan, so I went there. I'm thinking of my sister-in-law." As he spoke, Ayao came to his sister-in-law and said, "My sister-in-law is also from southern Henan. I want to invite him back home, and she will cook an authentic southern Henan cuisine. Maybe he'll be happy and stay, then we'll have hope for investment."
"Oh, you want to borrow this 'flower' from me to offer the incense to your 'Buddha'. Lan said with some resentment, but she remembered how everyone disliked the hometown food she cooked yesterday.
“This businessman from Wanwan deserves sympathy for not finding his relatives, but what does it have to do with us?” Lao Dou really doesn’t like eating noodles.
A Yao explained to Lao Dou in a pleading tone: "I understand, what he likes most is the excitement, and he also likes the strong family atmosphere, so I want everyone to come together to accompany him."
“If this business goes well, not only will this quarter’s bonus be paid, but I will also have results to support my future promotion.” Investment promotion is the main task of local governments at all levels. Ah Yao really implemented this businessman's project in Guangfu, which will indeed be of great help to him for his future promotion.
"If we accompany you like this, what benefits can you give us?" Azu teased. "Yes, yes, there must be. How about I invite everyone to the White Swan Hotel?" Sachiko heard that this would be beneficial to A Yao's promotion, and immediately generously promised a luxurious dinner. Everyone was just joking, and this kind of thing would definitely help. Now that they had a dinner, they were even more enthusiastic. They all patted their chests and promised to eat and drink well with the Bayan businessman.
"Sister-in-law, it's all up to you." Ayao continued to flatter Xianglan. Just now, Xianglan had been silent. Later, when everyone patted her chest and reassured her, Xianglan was also very calm. Ah Yao was a little unsure whether Xianglan would help.
Xianglan didn't even look at Ayao, and said in a calm tone: "You think of me now? You can take care of this meal yourself."
"Sister-in-law, I flattered you so much in front of that Wanwan businessman. If you don't do it, I won't be able to get off the stage." Ayao suddenly became anxious, and while trying to persuade his sister-in-law, he also touched her with his arm. Touch the boss Guang and ask him to help persuade Xianglan.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry for what happened yesterday. We didn't mean it. Since Ayao has such a big problem, we can help him if we can." The second brother stood up and spoke for Ayao. The second brother really cares about his younger brothers.
Lao Dou also followed up and persuaded: "A Zong is right, let's help him with A Yao's matter. Sister-in-law, as the saying goes, when a fellow villager meets a fellow villager, tears will come to his eyes. "
"Yes, sister-in-law, I remember that the Wanwan businessman also has the same surname as you, sister-in-law." Ayao focused on one sentiment. Kang Qirui also advised: "Sister-in-law, please help third brother. Maybe this Mr. Chang is still a relative of yours."
"Okay." Sister-in-law said proudly. "Thank you, sister-in-law, thank you, boss." Ayao heard the sister-in-law's words as if they were the sound of nature. Then everyone helped cook under the command of Xianglan. Seeing that there was nothing wrong, Kang Qirui wanted to help himself, so he went to play with his potted plants with Tianxiu.
"Uncle Yao, is it true that this won't bear fruit?" Tiantuo asked quietly. Although he was young, he also knew that the most educated person in the family was Kang Qirui. If Kang Qirui also said that it couldn't bear fruit, then It just really doesn’t work anymore.
Kang Qirui thought about it seriously and said, "It's not impossible. In this case, you go get a pair of scissors first."
"What are you doing with the scissors?" Tu asked doubtfully.
"There are too many branches. You have to cut off the diseased branches, weak branches and dense branches so that the nutrients can be concentrated. Then I will buy you some fertilizer tomorrow. After fertilizing, you have to water it every day. Make sure you replenish the water. Well, if there is no fertilizer today, just pee on it and use it as fertilizer." Kang Qirui explained to Tianxiu, regardless of whether he understood it or not, "Go get some scissors first."
"Okay." Tianxiu really didn't understand, but he remembered what he wanted to do. He ran to the kitchen to look for scissors, but couldn't find them. He even accidentally touched a piece of angelica into the pot that was making porridge.
