Chapter 151 Arrangement of accommodation
Hu the butcher glanced at his son-in-law.
If his son-in-law showed dissatisfaction, he would straighten his back and defend his daughter.
But he saw a gentle and elegant smile on Fan Jin's face. This, this, his son-in-law is generous, and he, as a father-in-law, must also show his attitude!
"Qing'er, there are many of us, so we don't need so many dishes."
Chicken, fish, meat, eggs, and five or six plates of vegetarian dishes.
Especially the eggplant, which is served with meat!
This life is really a bit extravagant.
"Dad, it's because there are so many people that we need more dishes, otherwise there won't be enough to eat." Shui Qing was handing out chopsticks, and said casually without turning his head.
Hu the butcher choked.
He then said, "There are more dishes, but there are two things, chicken, fish, meat and eggs. No, one is already very good, so there is no need to have them all."
Shuiqing asked everyone to sit down and replied, "It's okay, Dad, you don't know, now there are 170 or 80 chickens at home, and hundreds of big fat rabbits. You won't get tired of eating chickens and rabbits alternately."
Hu the butcher: ..... Is he afraid of getting tired of eating!
Wait, my daughter's family has 170 or 80 chickens? !
And hundreds of big fat rabbits?
He stuttered and asked, "Where did they come from?"
"Of course I raised them, otherwise would others give them to me?" Shuiqing laughed.
Then he said, "Nowadays, we can pick up more than 100 eggs a day. We can't go out in this weather, and eggs can't be stored for a long time. We are old and young, and we all need to supplement nutrition. We should not save them, otherwise it will be a waste if they go bad, right?"
Hu's mother, who has always been thrifty, also nodded.
Qing'er's words make sense.
"And this fish, we caught it this morning, we don't want money, if we keep it there for too long, it will die or become thin, we have to eat it as soon as possible."
Hu the Butcher: ..... That's right.
"Okay, eat it, if there's nothing later, we'll tighten our belts and eat less!" Shui Qing said proudly.
The previous efforts to stock up were to avoid starving when the disaster came.
And there are many of them, old and young, if they don't take advantage of this leisure time to keep healthy, how can they deal with the various things that will follow.
You can't live without a good body, no matter what time, health is the biggest asset.
Yan Qiuxing returned to Jianghehu and Bai Ziqian had long been accustomed to her style, cheered and started eating.
Ling Ran lowered his eyebrows, and the hand holding the chopsticks had distinct joints, neither hurried nor slow.
Hu Wenhua also had the mentality of a young man, and he had long been greedy for a large table of delicious food, and he ate the food in the bowl with big mouthfuls.
Hu the Butcher held the chopsticks, and didn't know where to start.
Every dish looked delicious.
Mother Hu picked up a large piece of fat for him.
It's funny, the family sells pork, but when there is fat, the head of the family always eats it first with her children and her, and never bears to pick it up first.
Now, he is also extravagant.
Butcher Hu didn't refuse and ate it with big mouthfuls.
Hmm, it smells so good!
Fan Zhaodi held a large coarse pottery bowl with white rice in it.
She had eaten it before.
Before, her aunt asked her second sister to bring her food, and every time it was refined grains such as rice or white flour.
It doesn't scratch the throat like black flour, and it is much more delicate than corn and millet, and there is a faint fragrance of rice grains, which is delicious.
Such delicious rice, you will never get tired of it.
She thinks she doesn't need vegetables, and she can eat two bowls of rice alone.
Obviously, Shuiqing doesn't think rice needs side dishes.
So, she has been picking up vegetables for Fan Zhaodi.
First, she scooped a spoonful of steamed egg for her.
The tender and smooth steamed egg was placed in a stoneware bowl, and it could be shaken back and forth. The time was just right so that it was not overcooked.
He picked up a piece of chicken thigh for her.
It was firm, chewy and the most delicious part of the chicken.
Then came the minced eggplant, stir-fried tender pumpkin shreds, stir-fried beans, stewed tofu, stewed potatoes, and fish fillet in sour soup... There were all kinds of meat and vegetables, and the nutrition was balanced.
Fan Zhaodi ate silently, thinking that every dish made by her aunt was delicious.
Today's life is very good, but it doesn't really belong to her.
When the wind stopped, she was still scolded by her father and despised by her mother and grandmother in the dilapidated house, with endless work to do.
But no matter what the future life will be like, she remembers the kindness of her aunt and others to her...
"By the way, father and mother, Wenhua, there are three rooms in the west wing now, and there is one empty room in the main house. Which one of you lives in the main house?" Shuiqing asked as dinner was coming to an end.
Mother Hu smiled and said, "We are guests now. How can guests live in the main house?
Your father and I live in one room, and your brother lives in another. We live in the west wing."
Hu Wenhua cares a lot about food, but not about living. For a grown man, living anywhere doesn't matter.
Besides, the west wing of his sister and brother-in-law's house is also very good!
It is more than two times bigger than the house he lives in.
"I will live in the guest room, it's comfortable!"
Shui Qing knew the temperament of the three people, and stopped persuading them. She turned her head and asked Fan Zhaodi beside her, "Are you sleeping with your eldest sister or second sister?"
Fan Zhaodi shook her head, "I, I will sleep in the guest room."
She saw the eldest sister and second sister's room when she came last time. It was so beautiful.
The bed sheets and quilt covers on the bed had small flowers, and there were many wounds on her body. It was difficult to wash the blood and ointment.
Yan Qiu frowned and said gently, "Mother, let my little sister sleep with me."
My little sister was injured, and if she felt pain or needed medicine at night, she could take care of her.
After hearing this, Ling Ran looked over with his drooping eyebrows.
Yan Qiu's watery eyes were confused. What was Brother Ling looking at her for?
Shui Qing thought the same as Yan Qiu. Seeing Yan Qiu take the initiative, she sighed in her heart: the eldest sister always unconsciously worries the most.
No matter whether the family is good or bad, the first thing she thinks about is others, her parents, her brothers and sisters, and finally her own turn.
She looked at the thin little girl beside her and asked, "Zhao Di, do you want to?"
Fan Zhao Di wanted to.
She was afraid that she was alone in the fields on the mountain, and she was also afraid of the feeling of being alone in the dark world.
She liked her elder sister to take the initiative and not dislike her.
"I want to."
Shui Qing said to Fan Zhao Di, "If you feel uncomfortable at night, don't bear it, remember to tell your elder sister."
She also reminded Yan Qiu, "You work harder at night, remember to check if her forehead is hot, if she is hot, come to me for medicine."
People who are frightened and injured are afraid of having a high fever at night.
"Mother, I know." Yan Qiu replied.
After the accommodation was arranged for the evening, the conversation turned to other topics at the dinner table.
"There have been strong winds in the past, but none as severe as today." Hu the butcher sighed as he thought of the difficulty of walking on the road.
Bai Ziqian recalled: "My mother said that there are strong winds from time to time at the seaside in summer, which can overturn fishing boats!"
Mother Hu recalled and was still afraid: "This wind may also come from the seaside, but we are already far away from the sea, and we don't know what the seaside is like?"
Bai Ziqian suddenly fell silent.
I don't know what's going on with my parents...
