Chapter 15: 141-150

Chapter 141

Dinner, the family of three who had not eaten braised pork for a long time ate heartily. She was having dinner when Gao Dasao came to her to ask how to make pickled fish.

Shuying wrote down the steps and gave Gao Dasao some bean paste and peppercorns, asking her to go back and make dinner.

Gao Dasao took the steps and asked her eldest son to read the steps to make pickled fish. After hearing her eldest son read the steps and said that it takes two times of oil and a lot of seasonings to make pickled fish, Gao Dasao felt so painful that she regretted agreeing to make pickled fish for her husband.

No wonder her husband said that pickled fish tasted good. How could it not taste good with so many ingredients and oil?

Gao Zhi knew that his mother was feeling sorry and a little regretful when he saw her expression. He had not forgotten that his father had told him several times that Aunt Yang's pickled fish was delicious. He hurriedly said, "Mom, you promised Dad to make pickled fish. You can't go back on your word. Besides, we only make pickled fish once!"

"Okay!"

Shu Ying, who was eating dinner in the main hall with the door closed, was also talking about this.

He said that Gao Zhi would read the steps of making pickled fish to Gao Dasao in a while. Knowing that a lot of oil was needed, Gao Dasao would definitely feel sorry and not want to make it.

Chen Yi just took a bite of rice and picked up a piece of braised pork soaked in soup. His cheeks were bulging with sympathy, "Xiaoyuan's mother's cooking is not good! She also feeds Xiaoyuan and his brother salted vegetables and sweet potato rice every day, which is particularly unpalatable!"

Shuying thought that she didn't know whether Gao's wife's cooking was bad or not, but Gao's wife was really frugal. How could the cooking be delicious if she didn't want to use oil? She was as frugal as her mother, but she was just a little better than her mother.

However, there are many children in this era, which is the basic national condition. It's just that she can't save money now for her children to marry in the future.

"It's a pity that you are the only one in our family!" Shuying said to her child, "Auntie is only responsible for raising you fat and white. You can find a wife by yourself in the future, otherwise we will have to eat pickled vegetables starting tomorrow!"

"I don't want a wife! I want auntie, and I want to eat delicious food, not pickled vegetables!" Chen Yi smeared his mouth with oil, and said while laughing, "I will make a lot of money in the future, more than my uncle, and spend it on auntie! I don't want a wife!"

Shuying's heart softened after hearing the innocent words of the child.

Chen Xi automatically ignored the boy's words, with a smile in his eyes, and said with his thin lips: "We can afford to raise as many children as we want! You can spend as much money as you want!"

However, facing the child, he looked serious and asked him to swallow the rice in his mouth before speaking, and his eyes vaguely swept over his wife's flat belly.

Shuying was puzzled by the man's eyes that swept into her belly from time to time, but the man's words were still very much in line with her heart, and it was worth it for her to cook for the big and small every day.

Shuying deliberately said to her man: "What if I spend all your savings?"

Chen Xi said calmly that he had a salary every month and he would work hard to win military merit in the future.

He couldn't afford to support his daughter-in-law and children, and he couldn't blame his daughter-in-law for spending money, but he could only blame him for not being capable enough.

The man put food into his wife's bowl while talking.

Shuying was full after eating a bowl of rice, and asked the uncle and nephew to eat slowly, saying that her family had enough money and she didn't want her man to risk his life for military merit.

The man's cold eyebrows softened. She ate too little, Chen Xi was not very satisfied, so he went to get a bowl of rice and gave half a bowl to his wife, asking her to finish it.

Shuying only ate a few mouthfuls, and put the rest of the rice back into the man's bowl, asking him to eat it by himself without having to worry about her.

At night, the family of three nestled in the quilt and listened to the wind blowing outside, which was particularly warm.

Especially there was a "stove" next to Shuying. These days, she especially liked to sleep next to people.

Chen Xi held her in his arms, and his big hands touched her flat belly as usual, thinking about his precious daughter!

Her lower abdomen had been a little sore recently, and she didn't know if her period was coming. The man's warm big hands touched her very comfortably.

Even though the child was asleep, she dared to hum softly.

"Does your waist hurt?" the man suddenly asked in a deep voice.

Shuying Yagen was so comfortable that he didn't think much about it and shook his head subconsciously.

A man who wanted a daughter but couldn't let his wife "live a widow" naturally thought that he had to work harder.

This is not sure if her waist is not sore or painful, and her whole body is not aching. The man turned over and pressed on her.

He was tall and heavy, and the virtual pressure on her was a bit heavy. Shuying was a little breathless. Just after opening her eyes, the man succeeded and sweat broke out on her forehead.

"Uncomfortable?"

"Hmm!"

Chen Xi simply hugged her and sat her on him, kissed her on the back of her head, blocked her mouth with words, and made her die several times on the bed.

When the two finished, Shuying was drowsy with sweat on both sides of her temples, and her whole body was sweating, just like someone who had just been pulled out of the water.

Chen Xi put the wet hair on her forehead behind her ears, touched her slightly bulging belly, and hugged her to sleep.

The next morning, the man had something to do and left without breakfast, and Shuying got up to make breakfast.

Now, she remembered that the man had succeeded last night and had been tormented for most of the night. Her legs were weak and her back and waist were sore.

Compared with the man who was refreshed this morning, her eyes were a little blue, her steps were weak, and she was very angry.

In the morning, she didn't have the energy to make a complicated breakfast, so she made a lot of meat floss.

Since the weather got cold, she went to the market and bought a lot of meat to store. She could also exchange meat in the mall. In short, meat was indispensable at home.

After the meat floss was made, it was canned and sealed. It could be eaten for several days. It was good with steamed buns and porridge.

The freshly fried meat floss tasted very fragrant.

She even exchanged some seaweed from the mall and added some seaweed and sesame to the meat floss and fried them together. The aroma attracted Chen Yi, who was playing in the front yard, to run to the kitchen.

Shuying gave the child some meat floss, and Chen Yi's eyes lit up and she ate it with great fragrance.

For breakfast, she and the child had porridge steamed bread with meat floss.

This morning, there was meat floss to eat, and the child drank an extra bowl of porridge.

After breakfast, both the big and the small were smeared with fragrance. Shuying took a mirror to make sure that there was no mark on her neck. She breathed a sigh of relief, took the child to school, and went back to the office by herself.

The first class in the morning was her math class, and Shuying continued to explain the test paper.

After class, when Niu Weiguo was about to enter the office with his homework, Shuying called him.

"Teacher Yang!" Niu Weiguo remembered that his test score was very low and he did not listen to the class well, so he felt guilty and stood in front of Shuying obediently.

Shuying did not scold him immediately, but sighed deliberately.

"Teacher, what's wrong with you? Did someone bully you? I will avenge you!" Niu Weiguo said loudly with his eyes wide open.

Shuying: "..."

"No one bullied the teacher, it's the teacher who is a little embarrassed!" Look, Shuying said that a classmate came to her and said that his score was too low and he was not suitable to be a class representative!

"Who said that? I'll beat him to death!" Niu Weiguo said angrily, imitating his father's tone. Then, remembering that it was Teacher Yang in front of him, Niu Weiguo restrained himself a little and quickly shut up.

But he was also a person with a temper. Before he became a class cadre, he was quite interested in being a class cadre. He didn't think it was anything special after becoming one. He immediately shouted, "If I don't want to be a class cadre, then I don't want to be one!"

The child's reaction was within her expectations. Shuying said, "Student Niu, whether you are a class representative or not will not affect the teacher. The teacher can just change someone else, but your parents already know that you are a class cadre. If you suddenly stop being a class representative, how will you tell your parents?"

Niu Weiguo froze.

Since he became a class cadre, his father no longer beat him with a belt every day. He always smiles at him every day. When he wants to eat meat, his father buys him meat without saying a word and treats him very well.

His mother is fine. If his father knew that he was removed from the class cadre, his father would definitely beat him with a belt. Niu Weiguo shook his body.

Shuying took in Niu Weiguo's expression, suppressed the smile in his heart and continued: "The reason why the teacher is so entangled is that he is a little worried that you will be embarrassed. A few days ago, the teacher heard your mother tell everyone in the military area that you became a class cadre every day. Everyone in the class also knows that you are a class cadre. The teacher suddenly removed you from the class representative. What if you are embarrassed?"

Children of this age are the most face-conscious, so there is no need to worry that this child will not react.

Look, Niu Weiguo listened to what Teacher Yang said, thinking that if everyone knew that he was removed from the class representative position and laughed at him, Niu Weiguo's face turned green, and he wanted to jump up and down but didn't know what to do.

Shuying pretended not to see it and continued: "But the teacher also knows that these things will definitely not affect you. What's there to be afraid of if we lose face once! Okay, classmate Niu, the teacher knows that you don't want to be a class representative, and I will announce to everyone in the class that you don't want to be a class representative!"

"Teacher Yang, I want to be a class representative, I want to be a class representative!" Niu Weiguo shouted loudly in a hurry, as if he was afraid that Teacher Yang would remove him from the class representative position. Niu Weiguo hurriedly said that he would definitely listen to the class carefully in the future and get good grades next time.

Shuying did not agree immediately. Niu Weiguo was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead and he rubbed his head: "Teacher Yang, please give me another chance! I will definitely study hard."

Shuying thought for a "long time" before he said with relief: "Okay, since you are so sincere, I will give you another chance. If the teacher catches you not paying attention in class next time and your test scores are still the last in our class, I will remove you as the class representative!"

Niu Weiguo: "..."

"Okay, go back to class and tell other students that if you don't understand anything about the teacher's explanation of the test paper in class, you can come to the office to ask the teacher."

It was rainy for the next few days, and it was very damp everywhere, whether it was the newly built mud brick house or the small yard.

With the sudden heavy rain for several nights, the earthen walls of her house were leaking a little, but fortunately it was not too serious.

However, Shilitun Village suffered a little flood. Her husband went to help with the disaster in the middle of the night two days ago, and he has not replied yet.

Gao Tuan and Fang Fu Tuan also went with him.

It was raining heavily, and her husband was not at home. She did not cook much for dinner. She just made pork stewed with vermicelli. After eating with the child, she took the child back to the house to sleep.

She did not sleep, but sat aside absent-mindedly hooking her shoes.

"Sister Yang! Sister Yang!" When Shuying was hooking her shoes, she heard someone knocking on the door, and also heard the voice of Gao Dasao. She hurriedly found a bamboo hat to open the door, let Gao Dasao sit in the main room, and poured her a cup of boiled water.

"Are you okay, Miss Yang?"

Mrs. Gao came to Chen's yard because she was worried about Miss Yang. After all, she had just been with Chen Tuan for a short time. She was afraid that Miss Yang would worry about Chen Tuan, so she came to see her.

As for her, she had been with her husband for more than ten years and had seen all kinds of storms. Her husband had just rescued a disaster in the past few days, which was nothing.

After sitting down, Mrs. Gao said that Chen Tuan and his friends would definitely be back in a day or two, so she shouldn't worry too much. She also reminded her to prepare a pot of ginger water.

When her husband came back, she would drink a bowl to get rid of the cold and soak her feet.

"I know, sister-in-law!" Shuying was very grateful for Mrs. Gao's kindness. With her words, she felt much better.

It was raining too hard outside, so Gao Dasao didn't stay in the main room of the Chen family for long. She said a few words and left. Shuying wanted to see her out, but Gao Dasao didn't let her, saying it was raining too hard outside.

Shuying still saw her out to the yard, and only went back to the house after she saw Gao Dasao enter her yard.

After hooking shoes for an hour and a half, her husband still hadn't come back. She couldn't stand it anymore, so she went to bed first.

Hearing the noise outside in a daze, Shuying hurriedly turned on the light and went out of the house.

The man, who was soaked in mud, was taking off his clothes and pants and washing his hair and taking a shower in the backyard. Hearing the noise, he looked up in surprise and asked in a deep voice: "Did I wake you up?"

"No, I'm a light sleeper!" The weather was cold, and the man had not returned from disaster relief for several days. She was afraid that he would catch a cold, so she didn't say much to him. She hurried into the house and cooked a big bowl of noodles and a big bowl of dumplings.

The dumplings were made yesterday because she saw that the children liked to eat dumplings. It was raining heavily, and she had nothing to do, so she made some dumplings.

It was just right to cook a big bowl for the man.

Chen Xi took a shower, went into the house and changed his clothes. There was a big bowl of noodles and dumplings on the table. His eyes were full of smiles and tenderness.

Shuying then brought out a bowl of ginger tea and handed it to the man, saying, "Drink a bowl of ginger tea first to get rid of the cold!"

Chapter 142

Chen Xi drank a large bowl of ginger tea. After the hot ginger tea went down her throat, Shu Ying saw that her man's tired face looked much better.

Shu Ying hurriedly asked the man to eat noodles and dumplings while they were still hot.

Chen Xi was indeed hungry. He had been soaking in the water for disaster relief all day these days. Not only did he have no time to eat, but when he ate occasionally, he only ate coarse grain biscuits that he brought with him.

In addition, his wife's cooking skills were really good. He didn't say much when he smelled the fragrance. He sat at the table and ate noodles and dumplings first.

I guess he was really hungry this time. Shu Ying saw that the man didn't even raise his head while eating. He didn't even complain about the lightness and didn't ask her for chili peppers.

It's better to eat light food. This man probably hasn't eaten much in the past few days. His stomach probably can't stand eating chili peppers suddenly.

While the man was eating noodles, Shuying took out the heated pot of ginger water and a basin, poured the ginger water into the basin, and asked the man to soak and eat.

"Sister-in-law said soaking feet can drive away the cold!" Shuying asked the man to take off his shoes and socks.

Chen Xi's eyebrows softened, and he swallowed the two words "no" back into his mouth. He wanted to take off his shoes and socks, but Shuying simply said, "You should not touch your feet while eating! I'll do it!"

As she spoke, she squatted down to take off the man's shoes and socks.

This man has had a hard time these days, so she only served him once. If this man still expects her to help him take off his shoes and socks in the future, she will hit him in the face with her shoes.

The man's soft eyes never left her, and his cold eyebrows softened completely.

After taking off the man's shoes and socks, Shuying went to wash her hands.

After washing her hands, she sat opposite the man with her chin propped up, watching him eat noodle dumplings. While looking at the sky outside, she felt that the rain seemed to have stopped.

The man quickly finished a large bowl of noodles, leaving no soup. When eating dumplings, the man first picked up a dumpling and fed it to his wife's mouth for her to eat.

"I've brushed my teeth, I don't want to eat!" Shuying shook her head.

Seeing that she really didn't want to eat, Chen Xi buried his head and continued to eat dumplings. The dumplings were not too big or too small, and he could eat one at a time.

It didn't take long for a large bowl of dumplings to be eaten up, leaving no soup. Shuying really admired the man's appetite and asked him if he was still hungry?

Chen Xi said she was full, wiped her feet with a towel, put on her shoes, and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.

She really didn't like washing dishes, so she let the man wash them himself.

After quickly washing the dishes, Chen Xi took his wife to bed.

Before going to bed, the man's head was still a little wet, so he wiped his head with a towel. Shuying also saw that the man looked tired and felt a little distressed, so he took the towel and wiped his head.

The man hugged her and sat her on his lap, and his eyes never left her face, and his eyes were particularly hot.

She didn't worry about the man making trouble again tonight: "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

"Nothing, I want to see my wife!" The man said gently.

This man has always been a practical man with a reserved personality. He has almost never said anything sweet. This sentence can barely be considered a sweet word. Shuying smiled and continued to wipe the man's hair.

The man had short hair, and it took only a few minutes to wipe it. In just these few minutes, the man actually fell asleep leaning on the back of the bed.

Under the light, the man's eye sockets were sunken, his eyebrows were tired, and his lips were chapped.

Shuying felt so distressed that she was thinking about how to wake the man up and let him lie down to sleep, when a quarrel suddenly broke out next door.

She vaguely heard Xia Lina's voice. Deputy Group Fang had just returned from disaster relief tonight. How could a couple quarrel?

Chen Xi also heard the quarrel next door, and immediately opened his eyes and frowned.

Fortunately, the quarrel between Deputy Tuan Fang and his wife subsided soon, and Shuying hurriedly let her husband lie down to sleep.

She also took off her clothes and got into the quilt. The warm quilt was really comfortable, but her husband was too cold.

Fortunately, the man was very hot, and soon his body was as hot as a heater. Chen Xi took his wife into his arms and slept with her.

When he woke up the next day, the rain outside had stopped.

In the past few days, due to heavy rain, the first floor of the school was also flooded, and classes could not be held. Teachers and students were on vacation these days.

This morning, her husband didn't get up either. He slept very soundly and looked much better.

Chen Yi went to bed early and got up early, looking at her with her big round eyes.

She didn't have to go to class this morning, so she wanted to stay in bed. She slept for another half an hour with her child before getting up.

In the morning, the child wanted to eat meat dumplings, but she didn't make them. She decided to eat meat every meal.

For breakfast, she made very fragrant sauce-flavored cakes, and poured out a small bowl of meat floss to cook porridge with. When cooking porridge, she wanted to pickle preserved eggs and salted eggs.

Salted eggs are especially delicious with porridge. As for preserved eggs, they are delicious when mixed with sauce alone. Preserved eggs, lean meat, or pork ribs porridge are all very delicious. Her husband and children will definitely love it.

When Shuying was making breakfast, Chen Yi, who was greedy, followed her like a little tail.

The soy-flavored biscuits were freshly baked and too greasy, so Shuying tore off a small piece and stuffed it into the little guy's mouth. Chen Yi ate it with a fragrant smell, and his little mouth was greasy: "Auntie, this biscuit is delicious!"

"It's fine as long as it tastes good, we'll eat it at the table later!" Shuying gently pinched the little guy's cheek.

Chen Yi nodded obediently.

When she finished making breakfast, the man woke up.

After washing up, the family of three went to the table to eat breakfast.

The soy-flavored biscuits were served with porridge, and the big and small men ate them with a fragrant smell. Chen Xi was very satisfied with this breakfast.

Not only are the soy sauce cakes delicious, but the meat floss is also very good.

Not only do the children love to eat them, but Chen Xi also eats a lot.

Shuying didn't have much appetite, so she ate a bowl of porridge, and gave the rest of the porridge and soy sauce cakes to her husband and children.

After breakfast, her husband went out.

Shuying asked her husband to help her post the letter she had written to her parents' and husband's families two days ago. When her husband went out, she went to see the vegetables she had planted. After a few days of heavy rain, the vegetables that had just grown in her vegetable garden were beaten to pieces. Chen Yi was more concerned about the strawberries and tomatoes that her aunt had planted for him. The newly grown vine seedlings had wilted.

Chen Yi was so distressed.

Look, Shuying tidied up the vegetable garden this morning, and Chenyi stuck out her little butt and followed his aunt to bury the two vine seedlings in the soil.

At noon, her husband didn't come back, so she took the children to eat lunch by themselves.

There was no celery at home, so she went to ask Gao's wife next door for some.

As soon as she knocked on the gate of Gao's house, she met Xia Lina, who had a fight with someone unknown. Xia Lina had a lot of scratches on her face and looked very bad, which scared Shuying.

Xia Lina didn't expect to meet Yang Shuying at this moment. Not only did she lose money and face, but Yang Shuying also laughed at her. Xia Lina was so angry that her face turned blue. She glared at her and hated that it was not a female educated youth who was entangled with Yang Shuying, a vixen.

Xia Lina was so angry when she thought of a shameless female educated youth entangled with her man.

Xia Lina rolled her eyes, suddenly walked forward, and said with sympathy: "Chen Tuan's family, why are you still here? Don't you know that your man is entangled with a female educated youth named Huang! That female educated youth is really shameless. Chen Tuan saved her, and now she is shouting that Chen Tuan should be responsible!"

Xia Lina told her the name of the female educated youth named Huang while she was talking. She just walked to the gate of the military district, and said that she was going to settle accounts with someone and could catch up with him.

Shu Ying's face paused slightly. He didn't completely believe the other party. He looked at her for a while and asked tentatively: "Comrade Xia, what's wrong with you? Could it be that Deputy Tuan Fang is also entangled with a female educated youth?"

Shu Ying's last sentence just poked Xia Lina's lungs. Xia Lina's face changed drastically and she walked away swearing.

"Sister Yang, why are you here?" Gao Dasao's voice came from behind.

"Sister-in-law, I came to your house to borrow some celery! Just a few roots will do!" Shuying said.

Green vegetables are not valuable things. Gao Dasao asked her to wait here and went to the vegetable garden to pull a few celery.

When Shuying took the celery, Gao Dasao was gossiping with her, saying how unlucky Deputy Regiment Fang was.

It was said that when Deputy Regiment Fang was rescuing the disaster, he saved a female educated youth who was almost washed away by the water.

Look, the female educated youth didn't know what she was thinking. This morning, she went to the military region and said that Deputy Regiment Fang hugged her and touched her body. She wanted Deputy Regiment Fang to be responsible. If he didn't take responsibility, the female educated youth would report Deputy Regiment Fang.

Shuying: "..."

Sister Gao continued: "Originally, this matter could be easily resolved by our military region, and that shameless female educated youth could be sent away, but Xia Lina somehow knew about this matter, and she went crazy and rushed over to fight with the female educated youth surnamed Huang! Not only did she lose dozens of yuan to the female educated youth, but she also lost face! Deputy Commander Fang was furious!"

"Wait, sister-in-law, the female educated youth who was entangled with Deputy Commander Fang was called Huang Xiaying?" Shuying asked.

"That's the name, what's the matter!" Sister Gao said.

Shuying immediately told Sister Gao what Xia Lina had just said, that is, Xia Lina said that there was a female educated youth surnamed Huang named Huang Xiaying who was entangled with her man.

Xia Lina not only told her the name of the educated youth, but also told her where she was, and told her to hurry up and deal with her. Mrs. Gao was stunned: "What? Isn't that educated youth entangled with Deputy Commander Fang? How is she related to Commander Chen?"

Mrs. Gao didn't understand Xia Lina's train of thought at all.

Shuying understood it.

She and Xia Lina didn't have a good relationship to begin with, and she saw her wolfish look just now. Who knows if she thought she was joking.

So, she deliberately spread her man's lies to annoy her.

If she didn't believe it, it wouldn't be a big loss for her. If she believed her lies and really went to find fault with the educated youth and fight for her, it would be her way.

Shuying has always felt that Xia Lina is not stupid, and that she has some smarts, but she just doesn't use them in the right way. She is speechless about this.

Chapter 143

When Gao Tuan came back for lunch, Gao Dasao told her husband about the weird things Xia Lina did, and asked her husband what Xia Lina was thinking.

Not only that, but Xia Lina was able to quarrel with Deputy Tuan Fang last night when he just came back from disaster relief. She was impressed by her.

Gao Tuan also heard that Xia Lina put the blame on Chen Tuan for the female educated youth pestering Deputy Tuan Fang to annoy her brother-in-law, and encouraged her brother-in-law to find trouble with the female educated youth. Gao Tuan was speechless about what Xia Lina did.

Gao Dasao couldn't figure out Xia Lina's purpose, but Gao Tuan could figure out her purpose with a little thought. He wanted to embarrass his brother-in-law once, and also wanted to make his brother-in-law embarrassed once, and annoy his brother-in-law by the way.

Gao Tuan said, "In the future, you should have less contact with Deputy Tuan Fang's family and more contact with your brother and sister-in-law. Deputy Tuan Fang's family is not a bad person, but this is really not very open!"

Mrs. Gao thought that she and Xia Lina could not get along. Before Yang Meizi came, the two families had not had much contact. She also remembered that Xia Lina asked her third child to pick banana peels. The most important thing is that the two of them are not compatible and can't talk to each other.

"By the way, what did Deputy Tuan Fang and his wife quarrel about last night?" Mrs. Gao asked gossipingly.

After Gao Tuan said that, Mrs. Gao knew that when Deputy Tuan Fang came back from the disaster relief yesterday, he received an urgent telegram from home, saying that something happened at home, and Deputy Tuan Fang's wife asked him to send some money home. Look, Deputy Tuan Fang handed over all his savings and wages to his wife.

It is easy to pay but difficult to get money. How could Xia Lina be happy when she heard that her husband was going to send money back to his parents' home?

The two quarreled again about counting money last night.

This morning, he gave the female educated youth a lot of money again. It will be difficult for Deputy Tuan Fang to ask his wife for money to send back.

Gao Tuan now really does not envy Deputy Tuan Fang for marrying a beautiful wife. Instead, he is very fortunate that he married a capable wife.

His wife took money from him, but it was all for this family. She would say a few words that his parents were partial, but she had no objection to him sending money home to show filial piety to his parents, and she never made any trouble.

The Gaos were discussing the affairs of Deputy Tuan Fang and his wife. For lunch at the Chens' courtyard next door, Shuying made three dishes: celery fried with bacon, a bowl of steamed egg, and a dish of mixed spinach.

She loved the mixed spinach, and the steamed egg was loved by the children. The bacon was sent by her in-laws, and there was only half of it left, so she just fried it.

After having lunch with the children, she kept the leftovers warm in the pot, just in case her husband came back for lunch?

She and the children had almost finished eating Hawthorn Snowballs and Beijing Eight Pieces in the past few days.

Shuying, who had some free time after hooking a shoe, made some egg cakes.

Unlike the egg cakes she made before, this time she put a thin layer of meat floss on the top of the egg cakes.

When Shuying was making cakes, Chen Yi followed her like a little tail.

When the egg cake was steamed, the little guy probably hadn't eaten egg cake for a long time, and asked her from time to time if it was ready.

Shuying touched the soft flesh on his chin: "Whose family raised this little foodie?"

"Your family!" Chen Yi giggled and asked: "Auntie, is our egg cake not ready yet?"

Chen Yi stood on tiptoe and looked into the pot while talking. Shuying said helplessly: "It's almost done!"

Finally, the egg cake came out of the oven. The freshly baked egg cake was very fragrant. Shuying cut a small piece and tasted it. It was obvious that the egg cake with meat floss was much more delicious.

Chen Yi held onto Shuying's clothes and stood on tiptoe to look at her anxiously. Shuying cut a small piece of meat floss chicken cake and fed it to the little foodie.

Chen Yi chewed it for a few times and quickly swallowed it. Her eyes widened as she ate, and she kept shouting, "It's delicious, little aunt! This chicken cake is so delicious! It's even better than last time!"

As she spoke, she approached Shuying and asked for more.

"Let's wait until it's cool before eating!" Shuying touched the little guy's head.

After the chicken cake cooled, she cut a small piece for the child to eat, and she sealed the rest of the cake in a bag and put it in the cupboard.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard. Shuying hurried out to open the courtyard door, and Chen Yi followed out eating the cake.

The one who came to her house was Cao Rou, and she brought her daughter Cao Yu with her.

Cao Rou looked into the courtyard hall with enthusiasm, and was a little disappointed when she didn't see Ye Shuning, but she still smiled and said, "Teacher Yang, it has been raining heavily these days and I can't go out. I have been bored at home. I came here to talk to you when I have time."

Shuying invited the mother and daughter to sit in the hall and poured water for them.

It was rare for a little girl to come to her family, so Shuying asked her own children to take the little girl out to play in the yard.

Cao Rou also saw the child beside her. She thought the child was beautiful last time, and this time, Cao Rou's eyes still flashed with surprise.

However, no matter how beautiful and exquisite the child is, it can't change the fact that the child is a bastard.

Cao Rou didn't want her daughter to have contact with such a child, so she refused first, "No, Teacher Yang, my child is shy!"

Hearing Cao Rou's refusal, Shu Ying didn't force it.

Seeing that Cao Yu was staring at the cake in her child's hand and kept asking for it, Shu Ying simply went into the kitchen to cut some cake for the little girl.

Chen Yi followed into the kitchen and whispered, "Auntie, I don't want to play with her. I don't like her. She scolded me! She also snatched my schoolbag!"

Chen Yi was angry as he spoke.

At first, Shu Ying thought the two children were just having a simple quarrel.

When she heard her child say that the little girl called him a "bastard" and didn't let other classmates play with him, the smile on Shuying's face faded a lot.

The little girl was young, and she really didn't think that if the adults hadn't mentioned these things, the little girl would understand them. Then she remembered that Cao Rou had just refused her daughter to play with her child, and the other party's attitude should not be too obvious!

She cut less than half of the cake, and Chen Yi was finally satisfied. She bit the cake in her hand and followed her aunt out.

When Cao Rou saw that Yang Shuying only cut a small piece of cake for her child to eat, she immediately looked down on him in her heart and looked at him with disdain.

He is indeed a country boy, too petty.

It was a pity that she thought her man was transferred from Kyoto and was the head of the group, and wanted to befriend her.

Cao Rou disliked the small pieces of egg cake, but although Shu Ying cut small pieces, they were still palm-sized pieces. You know, oily dough and milk are not cheap now, and egg cakes made with oily dough and milk are even more expensive.

Most people are reluctant to give egg cakes to other people's children.

No matter how disdainful Cao Rou felt in her heart, she still needed the other party, and wanted to rely on her to get on the Zhou group's wife.

So, she still smiled and took the initiative to talk to her.

Of course, she couldn't leave Ye Shuning in her words.

Shu Ying heard the other party asking when Sister Ye usually came to her house, and also said that she must not forget to inform her when she was going to Zhou's house.

Shuying realized that the other party had come to her house for other purposes.

Cao Yu quickly finished the cake in her hand and asked for more.

Cao Rou thought Yang Shuying would cut more cake because her child was crying.

Who knew that she heard the other party say with an embarrassed face: "Teacher Cao, I'm so sorry, my family only bought some cakes, and my child ate them all!"

"He has some, he has some, I want to eat the cake!" Cao Yu cried and tried to grab the cake in Chen Yi's hand.

Chen Yi cried out, stuffed the last few bites of egg cake in her hand into her mouth, and said in a baby voice after finishing, "I ate all the egg cakes! I won't give you any!"

When she heard that the egg cakes were gone, Cao Yu cried even harder.

Cao Rou couldn't coax her daughter, and she thought the Chen family was too stingy and the child's crying was too embarrassing, so she had to find an excuse to take her away first.

When she left, Cao Rou looked a little ugly.

Especially when she saw Niu Saozi carrying a basket of vegetables to the Chen family yard at the door, Cao Rou's face became even worse.

These days, since Niu Saozi's vegetables were no longer sent, her family's food has dropped sharply.

Before, she could still go to the market to buy vegetables, but the vegetables in the market not only cost money, but she went too late and couldn't buy any fresh vegetables, not to mention that the vegetables that Niu Saozi sent to her family were always fresh, and she always picked the best ones to send to her family.

Now that the weather is cold, vegetables are harder to buy, and the vegetables that Niu Saozi sent are even rarer.

Look, looking at Niu Saozi's basket of green vegetables, Cao Rou felt very uncomfortable and jealous, and she also regretted switching classes with Yang Shuying.

After switching classes, not to mention that she didn't get any benefits, but it was cheaper for others.

However, Cao Rou was a respectable person who "did not want to take advantage of others". No matter how upset she felt, she could not show any emotion on her face. Instead, she forced a smile and greeted Niu Saozi openly.

Niu Saozi was too lazy to pay attention to Cao Rou. She had not forgotten that this teacher Cao had complained to her husband many times before, asking her husband to beat her precious son. Niu Saozi pretended not to see anyone, but when she saw Shuying's eyes light up, she shouted loudly: "Chen Tuan's family!"

Cao Rou's face was a little stiff and embarrassed when she was ignored. Seeing that Niu Saozi only talked to Yang Shuying, she had to leave with her own child in a hurry with a stiff face.

Although Cao Rou was too lazy to pay attention to her, Niu Saozi was very enthusiastic towards Shuying.

She hurriedly brought a basket of vegetables to her and asked her to accept it.

Shuying was a little tired of Niu's sister-in-law sending another basket of vegetables: "Sister-in-law, didn't I tell you not to send me vegetables? I have vegetables at home. I appreciate your kindness, but I really can't accept this basket of vegetables!"

"Chen Tuan's family, why are you so polite to me? Besides, you didn't accept a few baskets of vegetables from my family before." Niu's sister-in-law persuaded her to accept it, and said that she taught her baby Jiaodadan very well.

Her baby, who didn't like to read, actually took out books to read these few days, which made the couple very happy. If her baby really becomes an educated person in the future, she and her husband will wake up with laughter in their dreams.

Now in Niu's sister-in-law's heart, there is no teacher who can teach children better than Chen Tuan's family.

Since Chen Tuan's family became her child's teacher, she saw with her own eyes that her precious son was obedient, and her husband no longer whipped the child, how could Niu's wife not be happy?

The two of them pushed and refused for a long time at the gate of the courtyard. Seeing that Niu's wife was about to put down the basket of vegetables and run away, Shuying could only ask Niu's wife to wait for a while, and went back to the kitchen to cut some egg cakes, wrapped them with oil paper, and asked Niu's wife to take them back for the child to eat.

Niu's wife saw that Chen Tuan's family actually wrapped a large piece of egg cake for her. This egg cake was not cheap, how could Niu's wife accept it?

In Shuying's opinion, her egg cake was not as affordable as the basket of vegetables sent by Niu's wife, not to mention that Niu's wife had sent vegetables several times before, and ran away too fast, so she didn't have time to return anything.

Afraid that Niu's wife would not accept the cake, Shuying said that if she did not accept it, she would not accept the basket of vegetables either. Niu's wife then took the cake and said, "Chen Tuan, why are you so polite!"

"Sister-in-law, you are too polite to me!" Shuying said with a smile, carrying a basket of vegetables into the yard, putting them in a basket, and returning the basket to Niu's wife, while telling her that she really didn't need to send her vegetables anymore in the future, as she also grew vegetables, and there was no shortage of vegetables at home.

"Okay!" Although she agreed, Niu's wife thought in her heart that Chen Tuan had taught her baby so well, how could he not send her vegetables?

After returning to the Niu family, Niu Tuan happened to be there, and Niu's wife showed her husband a large piece of cake.

Niu Tuan was surprised and asked, "Where did the egg cake come from?"

Niu's wife immediately sent a basket of vegetables to Chen Tuan's house, and Chen Tuan's family also gave her a large piece of egg cake in return, saying that if she didn't accept it, she wouldn't accept the basket of vegetables either. So, she had no choice but to accept Chen Tuan's egg cake.

This egg cake is more expensive than her basket of vegetables.

Niu's wife sighed and said, "Chen Tuan's family is really a real person!"

Niu Tuan nodded and felt that Chen Tuan's daughter-in-law was indeed a real person, but if she wasn't real, why would she be willing to raise a nephew for Chen Tuan right after getting married? And raise him so well?

"I just tried some on the way, it tastes really good, much better than the ones I bought. No wonder even Sister Liang said that Chen Tuan's cooking is so good." Sister Niu said as she tore off a small piece for her husband to taste.

Niu Tuan took a bite, and it tasted really good.

The couple was reluctant to eat the rest, and prepared to save it for their baby Dan.

Although Niu Tuan also favors boys over girls, he is also very good to his daughters, and asked Sister Niu to share some of the egg cake with the two daughters later.

Chapter 144

After dinner, Niu's wife gave most of the egg cake to her baby, and the remaining half to her two daughters.

This egg cake sprinkled with meat floss really captured the hearts of the three Niu siblings. Not only did the eldest sister Niu Yulan and the second sister Niu Yulian think that this egg cake was much more delicious than the egg cakes they had eaten before, but Niu Weiguo ate it with his eyes wide open and gobbled it up. He finished the egg cake in his hand in two or three bites and still shouted for more.

The Niu family had already eaten dinner, and the Chen family had just eaten dinner.

For dinner, Shuying made a bowl of steamed pork with rice flour, a bowl of mixed vegetables, and the celery and bacon fried that was not finished at noon. The three dishes were eaten by the family of three together.

Compared to most other families who eat sweet potatoes and salted vegetables every day, her family's food is simply too good.

Even wealthy families are reluctant to eat meat every day, and they buy meat every few days. Of course, if she didn't have the golden finger of the mall, she wouldn't dare to be so extravagant.

Seeing her husband and children eating with satisfaction, Shuying was still quite satisfied.

Chen Yi, who was eating steamed pork with rice flour for the first time, liked it very much. The glutinous steamed pork with rice flour was fat but not greasy, and the marinade was particularly flavorful, and it was particularly fragrant in the mouth.

She didn't add bean paste to the steamed pork with rice flour, so it wasn't spicy and more suitable for children. Every time Chen Yi put a piece of steamed pork with rice flour into her mouth, her chubby face would puff up her cheeks and make a small expression of surprise while chewing the meat, and she would shout to Shuying: "It's delicious! Auntie!"

It can be seen that this child likes steamed pork with rice flour.

"If you like it, eat more!" Shuying saw that her husband also took a lot of this dish with his chopsticks, and she also knew that her husband also liked this dish, so she smiled with pursed lips.

Chen Yi took a mouthful of rice and a piece of steamed pork with rice flour, and his little face was satisfied: "It's better than the egg custard I've eaten before, and it's as delicious as spicy rabbit meat! Auntie, let's eat this tomorrow, okay?"

Shu Ying deliberately said: "If you want to eat meat every day, Auntie can't afford to feed you!"

"I can afford it, I can afford it, I'm easy to feed!" Chen Yi chuckled, and his grandmother said: "Uncle eats too much, it's not easy to feed him!"

The little guy's innocent words made Shu Ying want to laugh, and Chen Xi told the boy to eat more and talk less with a blank face.

Chen Yi stuck out his tongue and buried his head in eating.

The family of three had dinner and digested the food for a while.

Shuying originally planned to take the child to take a bath first. The child's belly was still a little bulging. The kid ate too much tonight, so Shuying simply went to wash his hair and take a bath by himself.

After washing his hair and taking a bath, he changed his clothes and prepared to take the child to take a bath.

Chen Xi took the child to the backyard to take a bath first, and asked the kid to learn how to take a bath by himself in the future.

The weather was cold, and the man's thick skin could withstand the cold. The child's skin was tender, and his little face was frozen white. Shuying disliked the man for raising the child too roughly and glared at him.

However, the child was in good spirits. He poured hot water on his body, stepped on the cement floor barefoot and jumped and shouted comfortable.

After the child took a bath, Shuying was afraid that the child would catch a cold, so he quickly wrapped the shivering child with a thick towel and took the child back to the house to tuck him in.

It was much warmer in the quilt, Chen Yi laughed.

"Did you feel cold after taking a bath just now?"

"No, it was very comfortable!" Chen Yi replied excitedly.

Shuying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the child was very happy after taking a bath.

She put the clothes on the bed and let the child wear them by himself.

Although she doted on the child, she did not let the child do anything. She spoiled him too much and assigned homework to the child while letting him put on his clothes and stay in the room to do his homework.

"I know, little aunt!"

When Shuying went out, the man had taken a bath, changed his clothes, and was squatting in front of a wooden basin in the backyard, washing clothes very consciously. Not only his own clothes and pants were soaked, but also hers.

When she came out, she saw the man rubbing her underwear. Her ears were slightly red and her face was embarrassed.

This man behaved so well that she was embarrassed to say anything to him.

Chen Xi looked up and glanced at her, scrubbing and washing while saying in a deep voice: "It's cold, go back to the house first!"

It was okay that Shuying wrapped herself in a woolen coat, and said while wiping her head: "I can wash the clothes I changed by myself! I will wash them with hot water tomorrow!"

"It's okay! It's not cold!" the man replied!

Shuying felt sorry for her man, went to the kitchen to get a kettle, poured half a kettle of hot water into the wooden basin, and asked about the female educated youth pestering Deputy Tuan Fang.

Chen Xi didn't like to talk about these gossips, looked up at her, and met his wife's bright and gossipy eyes, so he simply narrated, and in a flat tone, simply summarized the matter of Deputy Tuan Fang going down to the river to save the female educated youth and being blamed.

The man's words were too concise and too plain, and Shuying choked.

Okay, she went to the wrong person to gossip.

However, after the information revealed by her man and some of what Gao Dasao said, she also guessed that the female educated youth surnamed Huang was probably full of enthusiasm when she went to the countryside, but later all that enthusiasm was worn away by the hard life in the village and the constant hard work every day.

So she had other crooked ideas, and it just so happened that Deputy Regiment Fang saved her by chance. She had "close contact" with him, and he was a deputy regiment. You know, being a soldier nowadays is really delicious.

Otherwise, how could her mother think about her military son-in-law every day, fearing that the military son-in-law would run away, and in addition, Deputy Regiment Fang was a good commander and had a salary, so she was not surprised that the female educated youth would rely on Deputy Regiment Fang.

However, the other party made a wrong calculation, thinking that Deputy Commander Fang was not married and was trying to cheat him, but he actually got married.

The female educated youth probably knew that if she interfered again, it would ruin the military marriage. Later, Xia Lina lost more than ten yuan, so the female educated youth stopped while she was ahead, and the matter was left unresolved.

"Is Deputy Commander Fang the only one in our military region who was entangled?" Shuying asked curiously with a blink of an eye.

Her man looks much better than Deputy Commander Fang. According to her mother, he is so handsome.

He has bright eyes, deep eyes, a high nose bridge, cold and sharp facial features, and looks particularly good.

To be honest, she almost believed Xia Lina's lies about her husband being entangled with a female educated youth this afternoon.

Chen Xi nodded in acquiescence.

Well, it's no wonder that Mrs. Gao said that Deputy Tuan Fang was particularly unlucky.

Shuying wanted to say something else, but was called into the room by the child to check the homework.

After correcting a few mistakes and letting the child rewrite, he waited for the sleepy child to go to bed.

Chen Xi washed and dried her clothes and went into the room. Shuying had just coaxed the child to sleep, and continued to wipe her hair while leaning against the back of the bed.

After the man entered the room and closed the door, he took the towel and wiped her hair. He wiped it for almost half an hour before he finished, took off his clothes and went to bed, picked her up and sat her in his arms, and pressed down her thin lips on the back of her head.

"Hmm..."

When Shuying realized that the man was unbuttoning her clothes, she hurriedly said that her period had come.

The man paused and didn't understand at first. Shuying repeated it again. This time he understood. He pinched her chin and kissed her hard a few times, and could only hug her and sleep.

"Is it really coming?" The man asked softly, and his big hand touched her flat belly with a little disappointment.

Shuying breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt that her man was particularly disappointed. She panted and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing!"

When Shuying was sleeping, she saw her man's big hand rubbing her belly all the time, which made her feel very comfortable. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Before the couple of the Cao family went to sleep at night, Cao Rou was telling her husband that when they went to the Chen family yard today, Chen Tuan's wife was particularly petty and was reluctant to give their daughter a little egg cake.

If she had known earlier, she would not have exchanged grades with her.

Cao Rou said righteously that she suffered a lot when she exchanged grades with her. Her monthly salary was reduced by five yuan, and the food coupons she received were also reduced. Now Chen Tuan's family is reluctant to give her daughter even a little egg cake. Aren't they ungrateful?

Captain Lu was not very comfortable listening to this, and felt that Chen Tuan's wife was indeed too petty!

However, he thought these were trivial matters and not a big deal. He asked his wife not to be so fussy and that the most urgent thing was to establish a relationship with Chen Tuan's family.

Although his superior was not Chen Tuan, it would be beneficial for him to have a good relationship with Chen Tuan.

Captain Lu asked his wife if she had found out about Chen Tuan's family background?

"What kind of background can the Chen family have? Everyone in the military region knows that Chen Tuan married a country girl! If he had a background, how could he marry a country girl?" Cao Rou sneered.

Her husband asked her to find out about Chen Tuan's background several times, but Cao Rou didn't take it seriously and focused on making friends with the daughter of Political Commissar Ye.

Lu Yangguang said: "Although Chen Tuan's wife is from the countryside, Chen Tuan was transferred from Kyoto. Since Chen Tuan was transferred here, he has been very close to Master Zhou's family."

A few days ago, he heard that Master Zhou's family had several banquets, but only invited Chen Tuan's family!

Cao Rou guessed that the close relationship between Chen Tuan's family and Master Zhou was because of Zhou Tuan's wife?

If she could establish this relationship, her husband would definitely have a good future in the future.

If she could establish a good relationship with Zhou Tuan's wife in the future, what would the Chen family have to do with?

Cao Rou told this story. Captain Lu was still thinking that Chen Tuan was transferred from Kyoto and thought he was not simple. After listening to his wife, Captain Lu did not say much and only asked her to make good relations with Zhou Tuan's wife.

"Okay, do you need to tell me this?"

Cao Rou then talked about the fact that Niu Saozi sent vegetables to Chen's house every day, saying that it was too cheap for Chen's family.

Before, Niu Saozi sent vegetables to her family from time to time, but she looked down on the vegetables sent by Niu Saozi and thought they were not worth much.

But now that Niu Saozi's vegetables are missing at home, she has spent a lot of money on vegetables this month.

In fact, her family is rich, and her father is the deputy director of the factory. He used to send her a lot of money. But in the past few months, since her brothers got married and started their own families, her parents sent less money to her. This month, her parents didn't send her any money!

She spent a lot of money herself, and she used to buy leather shoes and clothes for herself and her children.

In addition, her husband's salary is not high, and now the family expenses have to supplement her salary. Cao Rou felt very uncomfortable and regretted it more and more.

Lu Yang was too lazy to worry about these trivial matters. These things were women's business. He was too lazy to worry about them. He was impatient and just closed his eyes and fell asleep. He snored in a short while!

Cao Rou was complaining when she saw that her man had fallen asleep. She was so angry that she pushed him, but he didn't wake up and was snoring loudly. She could only swallow her anger and went to sleep with a lot of anger in her heart.

Chapter 145

After the rainstorm, the weather cleared up and the school resumed normal classes. Not only did the students have to start classes, but the teachers also had to go back to school.

Shuying went back and forth between school and home, thinking that life would go on peacefully, but who knew that her husband was suddenly sent out again.

He only mentioned it to her before going to bed at night, and he left the next morning before dawn.

This time her husband has been away for nearly three months, and it's almost the end of the year and he hasn't come back yet.

No matter how calm she was, she couldn't help but worry a little, fearing that something would happen to her man, and she kept thinking about him in her heart.

Now it's the last month, and the school has started the winter vacation. Starting a few days ago, she and her children didn't have to go to school.

She also spent more time at home on weekdays. The food at home increased sharply. Chen Yi gained a lot of weight and his face became chubby and round. She felt that he was a little heavy when she held him.

Shuying lost a few pounds because she was worried about her husband, but her skin and face skin gradually became cold white due to her taking nectar in the past few months.

It was okay if her skin was covered by clothes, but her delicate and beautiful face was eye-catching. Now that it became cold white, it was even more dazzling. She was the most eye-catching one wherever she went out. People who could see her were all staring at her. She really looked like a "fairy"!

Not only her skin, but also her black hair has been well-maintained. Her hair is particularly black, shiny and thick, which makes her face look even fairer and more delicate.

When Gao Dasao brought her third child to sit down, Shuying had just finished dinner with the children and washed the dishes.

Seeing Gao Dasao and Gao Yuan coming over, she wiped her hands, invited them to sit down, and hurriedly took a plate of potato chips she had recently made from the cabinet and took them out of the main room.

Potato chips are Chen Yi's favorite recently. She made a lot of them and added a small amount of chili powder and cumin. The taste is very good. It is crunchy and fragrant when bitten, and it is especially delicious.

In her era, there were many children who loved to eat potato chips, not to mention the current era of shortage of supplies and snacks.

Potato chips can really be regarded as one of the most favorite snacks for children.

Since she made some potato chips, the little guy likes them especially, even more than French fries. Since he tasted the taste of potato chips, he has been asking for potato chips every day behind her.

However, potato chips can cause internal heat, so she also packs a small dish every one or two days for the little guy to eat by himself at the door of the main hall.

Just look, when Shuying went to the kitchen, little Chen Yi ignored his good friend and followed her like a little bug, stretching his neck and deliberately saying in a baby voice: "Auntie, our potato chips are delicious. Xiaoyuan must have never eaten them. Can we give him some?"

Shuying looked down and met the little boy's big eyes staring at the cabinet. How could she not know that the little boy was greedy and wanted to eat potato chips.

She pinched Chen Yi's little face and asked him why he didn't share with Gaoyuan before?

Chen Yi had only eaten potato chips once. The first time he ate potato chips, he was even more surprised than French fries. They were so delicious. His aunt only gave him a small plate. He ate it while sitting outside the living room. How could he think of his younger brother!

Chen Yi felt a little guilty. Shuying didn't expose the little guy's thoughts. It was the nature of children to protect food. Moreover, she knew her children well. They were usually very generous.

"Big brother, why don't you come out and play with me?" Gao Yuan, who was being pulled by Gao's wife in the living room, shouted loudly to the kitchen.

Shuying filled a small plate of potato chips and asked the child to take it out to share with Gao Yuan. She also told him to eat less. He had just eaten a lot yesterday. He didn't care if he got angry.

Chen Yi happily jumped out of the living room with a small plate of potato chips. Shuying prepared another small plate for Gao Dasao to taste.

Since her husband was off duty again in the past few months, Gao Dasao would come over from time to time to ask if she could help. She was afraid that she would be bored, so when she was free after dinner, she would bring her children to her yard to sit down and chat with her about military gossip.

She also appreciated Gao Dasao's kindness.

When Shuying came out, Gao Dasao was peeling corn in her hand while watching the two children.

After Chen Yi asked Gao Dasao if she didn't eat potato chips, she stuffed a potato chip into her mouth and chewed it, making a crunching sound. She and Gao Yuan each dragged a small stool to sit together, and their heads were also put together.

Gao Yuan is a foodie. He couldn't move his eyes away from Chen Yi's small plate. He was so greedy that he wanted to drool. He asked, "Big brother, what are you eating? Is it delicious?"

Chen Yi knew Gao Yuan was greedy. She remembered that her aunt asked him to share the potato chips with Gao Yuan. Chen Yi was not stingy. After eating a piece of potato chips, he said in a baby voice, "These are potato chips made by my aunt. They are delicious! Do you want to eat them?"

Gao Yuan took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Chen Yi had tasted the taste of potato chips before. It was Gao Yuan's first time to eat potato chips. As soon as he tasted a piece, his eyes widened immediately. The potato chips were fragrant, crispy and crunchy. They were really delicious.

He didn't know what to say. It tasted better than the French fries he had before.

Gao Yuan didn't care to talk anymore, his little hands holding potato chips moved quickly, the two children munched on the potato chips, chattering.

While the children were talking, Shuying sat down and chatted with Gao Dasao, letting Gao Dasao taste the potato chips she made, while helping Gao Dasao peel the corn in the winnowing basket.

Gao Dasao was embarrassed to snatch food from the children just now, but when she saw that Yang Meizi had put another plate of potato chips, she didn't hesitate to taste a few chips. The potato chips with chili and cumin tasted really good, not to mention that the children loved it, she ate a few more chips.

"Sister Yang, what is this? How did you make it? It tastes really good!" Sister Gao is now numb with admiration for Sister Yang's ingenuity and craftsmanship. Sister Yang is not only skilled in craftsmanship, but can also make all kinds of delicious snacks from time to time.

In addition, Sister Yang is generous, so it's no wonder that her three little boys envy Chen Yi every day and want to be her son.

Especially her third child goes to Chen's house every day and wishes to stay there forever. She is helpless.

However, Sister Yang is also generous. Since coming with Chen Tuan, her third boy has benefited a lot. He likes to send her some delicious food. He is really generous. If it were her, she might not be willing to do so.

Shuying didn't hide it and told Gao that this was deep-fried potato chips. If you don't want to use oil, you can just add some oil and fry it slowly. Sprinkle some salt and chili powder and it will be almost the same. If you don't like spicy food, you don't have to add chili powder.

When Gao heard that this thing was fried in oil, she hissed. She was originally thinking whether she should make some at home because it tastes good, but now she immediately gave up the idea.

Shuying knew what Gao was thinking when she saw Gao's face, and smiled secretly in her heart. That's right, Gao usually only puts a few chopsticks of oil when cooking. If she uses oil, she will be cut and hurt. Last time, Gao fried some French fries for the children at home, and then she kept complaining to her that it wasted oil and she was so upset. She didn't persuade her much and talked to her about other things.

Talking about other things, Gao Dasao also shifted her attention. Now, she remembered the gossip about the Fang family next door and told Shuying that she saw Deputy Tuan Fang's mother bringing two children to the house today. It seemed that Deputy Tuan Fang's eldest brother died digging coal on the construction site, and his wife ran away, leaving two children behind. Xia Lina refused to send money to her in-laws, so Deputy Tuan Fang's mother brought the children to the house in person.

When Gao Dasao talked about this, her eyes suddenly fell on Yang Meizi's two white and tender hands peeling corn. No wonder Chen Tuan was reluctant to let Yang Meizi wash the dishes. Then she looked at Yang Meizi's delicate face that was white and glowing, and took a deep breath.

To be honest, these days, although Yang Meizi is under her eyes every day, Yang Meizi's changes are not big but not small. She used to think that Yang Meizi was fair enough, but she didn't expect that her skin could be even whiter these days.

How can someone be so white?

A few days ago, she asked Yang Meizi why her skin became whiter. Yang Meizi told her that her grandmother's skin was whiter than hers, and she inherited it from her grandmother. She thought Yang Meizi was joking.

Look at her white face now, it's catching up with the color of snow.

Her skin was white, her eyebrows were picturesque, her nose was straight, and her mouth was slightly red as if she had put on lip balm. When Yang Meizi answered her, she smiled at her, and her eyes seemed to have hooks, which was charming and eye-catching. Gao Dasao's heart melted as a woman, not to mention a man.

Gao Dasao was trembling in her heart.

No wonder some people outside were talking about Yang Meizi as a goblin.

She often heard Xia Lina tell people that Yang Meizi must be a fox spirit.

However, Gao Dasao, who broke the feudal superstition, did not believe these. She really thought that Chen Tuan was lucky to find such a beautiful daughter-in-law in the countryside.

There was no comrade prettier than Yang Meizi in the military region before, and now it is even more difficult to find a comrade who looks like Yang Meizi in the whole country.

I don't know what the reaction will be when Chen Tuan returns from his mission and his wife is so white and beautiful!

Shuying lowered his head seriously and didn't notice the expression of Gao Dasao. Gao Dasao caught a glimpse of Yang Meizi's white and tender neck, and sighed in her heart that Chen Tuan was so lucky. No wonder when Chen Tuan was here, he often made people unable to get out of bed.

"Sister-in-law, then Deputy Tuan Fang and his wife will have to support his two nephews and nieces in the future?" Shuying felt that Deputy Tuan Fang's wife might not agree. Maybe the couple had been arguing because of this a few days ago.

A few days ago, she didn't get a good night's rest because the couple kept quarreling. But she could only accept such a neighbor for the time being.

Gao Dasao learned something from her husband. He said that at the beginning, something happened in the family of Deputy Tuan Fang's eldest brother, and Deputy Tuan Fang's wife didn't plan to let the couple raise two nephews and nieces. She only asked Deputy Tuan Fang to send some money back to her hometown for her to raise.

But Xia Lina couldn't possibly send money to her husband's family, and she would never raise two nephews and nieces from outsiders. Deputy Tuan Fang had no money to send, so Deputy Tuan Fang's wife had to bring the children to the military region.

At this point, Gao Dasao had to sigh again that Chen Tuan was lucky to marry Yang Meizi, such a sensible daughter-in-law, who was willing to raise his nephew for him.

If it were someone else, who would be willing to raise a child that wasn't born from their own belly?

Xia Lina, who refused to even send money, let alone raise the child, looks at how plump and fair the child Chen Yi is.

Gao Dasao also admired Yang Meizi for this.

It's hard to find a daughter-in-law as kind, sensible and generous as Yang Meizi.

Chapter 146

In the main hall of the Chen family, Mrs. Gao was chatting with Shuying about the gossip of the Fang family next door. Before going to bed, Xia Lina was quarreling with Fang Boran again because of the matter between Fang's mother and the two nephews.

Xia Lina was unwilling to let others take advantage of her. Since Fang's mother brought the two nephews to her house, she was afraid that Fang's mother and the two children would move into her house and let them raise them. From time to time, she asked Fang's mother when she would bring the two nephews back to her hometown?

After all, she was his own mother. Deputy Commander Fang was very dissatisfied with Xia Lina's refusal to send money to her hometown before. If her mother had no choice, could she bring her nephews and nieces to him from a long distance? I also heard her wishing that his mother and two nephews would leave immediately. His mother and two nephews had just arrived at the military region today, and Xia Lina wanted to drive them away. If his mother and two nephews really left tomorrow, how would others look at him?

Fang Boran was impatient and asked her to speak more quietly. Seeing that Xia Lina's voice was not lowered, but became louder and louder, fearing that his mother didn't hear him, Fang Boran's temper also came up, and he even said that his eldest brother was in trouble and he had to support his mother and two nephews.

This made Xia Lina very anxious and angry. She immediately started to quarrel with him, her voice getting louder and louder: "Why should we raise them? Why should I raise them if my own mother doesn't raise them? Besides, your mother has more than one son, why should we raise them?"

She also scolded Fang's mother for favoring Fang's eldest brother and two aunts. When Fang's eldest brother got into trouble, why didn't Fang's mother send the two children to be raised by the two aunts?

Deputy Regiment Fang was very angry at Xia Lina's words. He knew very well who his mother favored the most. His mother gave birth to four children, and he was the youngest. If there was any favoritism, his parents favored him the most, otherwise they would not have let his eldest brother give up his place in the army.

As for sending the child to his aunt, his two sisters are married, and he is not dead, so how can his Fang family's child be sent to be raised by outsiders?

Xia Lina continued: "Your mother is partial to the two aunts, why not send the child to be raised by them?"

"Chen Tuan's wife can raise his nephew, why can't you?" Fang Boran was about to lie down and sleep, but after hearing Xia Lina's words, he stood up angrily.

Xia Lina had always been upset that she couldn't compare to Yang Shuying, a country girl. Fang Boran's words had stirred up a hornet's nest in her heart, and she was so angry that her face turned blue. She immediately tore off her face and said, "What's the matter? Yang Shuying is more conscious, and I, Xia Lina, can't compare to her hypocritical behavior. She is willing to be a scapegoat, what does it have to do with me? Besides, it wasn't my fault that your eldest brother got into trouble, so why should I support two outsiders? Fang Boran, I'm going to say this first. If you dare to agree to support them, we will get divorced!" Fang Boran got angry and got dressed, got out of bed and left. In the main hall of the Chen family, after listening to the quarrel of the Fang family, Xia Lina's cry was faintly heard. Shuying and Gao Dasao looked at each other, but she didn't want to persuade them because of her relationship with Xia Lina. Gao Dasao couldn't stand it and went out to take a look. Not long after, she took Gao Yuan back to the Gao family yard.

Shuying took her children to brush their teeth, wash up and go to bed.

The next day, after having breakfast with the children, Shuying packed the package to be sent to her mother's house and sent it out later.

Since she learned that her second brother and Taohua and her fourth brother and Mu Zhiqing had obtained marriage certificates, she hurried to make two sets of red festive pillowcases, and packed a red envelope for each of them and sent some rare tickets that she didn't need, such as cake tickets, cloth tickets, and iron kettle tickets.

Especially the cloth tickets and the kettle tickets are good things.

She also planned to make some mushroom meat sauce and send it back to her hometown.

She had always wanted to make mushroom sauce but never had time.

The weather was getting colder and colder, and she changed her child into a cotton jacket made by her mother early in the morning. The cotton jacket was a bit big and bulky, but it could keep warm.

Chen Yi was wrapped up like a ball, and it was also because of the child's good looks. Although her face was round and her chin was full of flesh, she was very fat, but her eye sockets were deep, her eyelashes were thick and long, and her nose was high. No matter how you look at her, she is cute, delicate and beautiful, and her personality is also lovely.

After breakfast, Chen Yi learned that his aunt was going to make mushroom sauce, so he stopped playing and said he wanted to help in the kitchen.

Shuying didn't want to keep this kid in the kitchen to make trouble, so he asked him to go to the yard to see the strawberries and tomatoes he planted.

The weather was too cold, and the strawberries and tomatoes that the child planted before, only one tomato vine survived, and the others were all withered.

However, this tomato vine has a lot of fruits, most of which have turned red. Shuying took a small bowl and asked her children to pick tomatoes to eat.

Chen Yi said with a bitter face: "Tomatoes are sour and not delicious!" He doesn't like to eat them.

Shuying knew that this kid secretly picked tomatoes with Gao Yuan before they were ripe. Unripe tomatoes are green, sour and bitter, and really not delicious. They made the two children's faces sour.

Since this child secretly picked unripe tomatoes with Gao Yuan a few times before, he changed his previous excitement and was no longer interested in tomatoes.

Shuying laughed and said that tomatoes are sweet and delicious only when they turn red and ripe.

"Really? Auntie!" Chen Yi took the small bowl, widened his eyes, and became a little interested.

Before the child ran to the yard, Shuying instructed: "Let's pick the red fruits, they are sweeter!"

When Chen Yi ran to the yard, Shuying blanched the mushrooms that had been washed and placed in a dustpan last night, cut them into dices, cut the meat into dices, and took out a few jars.

The jars were used by her mother to store chili peppers. After eating the chili peppers, she washed them and disinfected them with hot water, and then put in the mushroom meat sauce.

Before boiling the mushroom meat sauce, add oil to a hot pan and stir-fry the meat until the water is dry, remove it, add minced garlic and onions and stir-fry, add mushrooms, continue to stir-fry until the water is dry, and finally add the dried meat cubes to boil together, add salt, bean paste, soy sauce, and oyster sauce, and simmer slowly over low heat.

When the mushroom meat sauce was being cooked, Shuying, who had just finished her meal and was in the kitchen, didn't feel anything, but the Gao and Chen families who lived on both sides of Shuying's house suffered.

The aroma of this mushroom meat sauce was really special, and the spicy and fragrant aroma was very tempting. When Gao Tuan had breakfast at home and went out, he smelled this spicy smell and felt horny. He sighed and admired his brother-in-law's cooking skills. Everything he made was delicious.

I don't know what delicious food my brother-in-law made this morning. Chen Tuan is really blessed.

Gao Dasao, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, was also wondering what delicious food Yang Meizi made again? Why is it so fragrant?

Look, she washed the dishes and didn't pay attention. The eldest and second sons were fine, but the third son went to Yang Meizi's house again. Gao Dasao was helpless.

It was because Yang Meizi had a good relationship with her and was generous. If it was someone else, like her third son who was so greedy and shameless, who wouldn't despise him?

Gao Zhi and Gao Xiang were drooling at the smell from next door. The two brothers were older and embarrassed to run to Aunt Yang's house next door with their younger brother. They simply ran to the kitchen and asked their mother to make them delicious food.

Last night, they heard the third son say that Aunt Yang made some delicious potato chips for Chen Yi. Gao Zhi and Gao Xiang are now jealous of Chen Yi and their third son. Why aren't they the youngest?

By the way, they often saw Chen Yi drinking milk a few days ago.

I heard that Aunt Yang specially ordered milk for Chen Yi, saying that drinking it is good for the body, why is their mother so picky with them, and Aunt Yang is so generous to Chen Yi?

However, milk is expensive, they dare not ask their mother to order milk for them, and only dare to ask their mother to make delicious food for them at any time.

Mrs. Gao just wanted to scold the two children for eating what they eat, thinking that they don't need to get married in the future? Then she thought that it was almost the end of the year, and she would cook a lot of delicious dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner even if she was reluctant.

Mrs. Gao temporarily relaxed and said, "We'll talk about it later. Big brother, go to your aunt Yang's house first and bring back the third child! Don't let your brother take advantage of Aunt Yang's family all the time. You should keep an eye on him. He is not sensible, but you can be sensible. No one's food is blown by the wind!"

"I know, mother!" Gao Zhi said.

The mushroom meat sauce is not only affected by the Gao family, but also the Fang family who eats breakfast next door.

Fang Boran had a quarrel with his wife last night. He had no appetite in the morning. He went to the canteen to get breakfast and bought buns. He was very upset while eating buns and smelling the fragrance next door.

Fang Boran, who used to think that he had married a good wife, is now really jealous of Chen Tuan.

Xia Lina, who was eating steamed buns for breakfast, smelled the delicious food from next door, and she was even more jealous of Si Yang Shuying's good life.

Now, seeing Fang's mother and two children eating white rice at the table, Xia Lina felt sick.

Every family has a fixed amount of food. Although her husband has a salary, if her husband really takes care of Fang's mother and the two nephews, she will definitely have to eat coarse food in the future.

Xia Lina was thinking about how to get rid of Fang's mother and the two nephews, but Fang Boran saw that the nephews and nieces did not dare to take more steamed buns, but he warmly asked his mother and the two nephews and nieces to eat more. Fang's mother's face improved, but Xia Lina's face was particularly ugly.

The eldest brother of the Fang family has two children, one ten years old and the other eight years old. The older one is a daughter named Fang Xiuxiu, and the younger one is a son named Fang Xiaobao.

Since the eldest brother of the Fang family got into trouble and his mother ran away, the two children have become very sensible, especially the ten-year-old Fang Xiuxiu, who can already read people's faces.

Although the two children were tempted by the fragrance from next door, they didn't dare to say much. After thanking their uncle, they buried their heads in eating buns.

When they were almost done with breakfast, Fang's mother suddenly said, "Youngest, don't go to the cafeteria to buy breakfast at home from now on. It's expensive. I'll make it for you!"

When Xia Lina heard what Fang's mother said, she knew that Fang's mother really wanted to take the two children to stay. She couldn't sit still. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Fang's mother let the two children who had finished breakfast go out to play first, and then said, "Youngest, you know very well how you became a soldier. The eldest brother and you were enlisted together. , but there are only a few quotas for military service in each village. Your father and I took great pains to get a quota for our family. I mean, you are young, and I wanted to persuade your elder brother to give up the quota to you. Your father wanted you to draw lots with your elder brother. Later, your elder brother voluntarily gave up the quota to you. If not, your elder brother would not have to work hard on the construction site! This incident would not have happened!"

When her eldest brother was mentioned, Fang's mother's eyes were red.

Fang Boran naturally remembered that his elder brother gave up the quota to him. Seeing his mother's tears, he immediately felt ashamed and agreed: "Mom, you, Xiuxiu and Xiaobao will live here. If I have a meal, you, Xiuxiu and Xiaobao will not be missing!"

Chapter 147

The mushroom meat sauce had just been cooked, and the rich aroma filled Shuying's nose and made her mouth water.

She cooked the mushroom meat sauce slowly over a low fire for an hour or two. She tasted a chopstick, and the freshness of the mushrooms and the caramelized aroma of the meat mixed together, and the taste was particularly good. It was very good for mixing with noodles, as a sauce, and cooking stewed fish.

Hearing the quarrel between Deputy Group Leader Fang and Xia Lina next door, Shuying was convinced by the couple. Why did the couple quarrel endlessly?

Shuying didn't care about other people's affairs. She bottled the cooked mushroom meat sauce, packed two cans for her parents' home, and sent it to her parents' home with other luggage and parcels.

It is very convenient to send luggage in the military district. You can send the packages to the special express delivery room in the military district. The logistics department that goes to the county city every week will send these express deliveries one by one.

This morning, Shuying didn't have time to send the package herself, so Li Hongqi came to her house and took the package to the express delivery room for her.

Before leaving with the package, Li Hongqi said, "Sister-in-law, the commander specifically asked me to take care of it before he went on a mission. If you have anything, just tell me directly. Don't be polite!"

During the three months when her husband was on a mission, Li Hongqi came to her house from time to time to help her. He often filled the water tank for her and turned the soil for her. When her husband was not there, she couldn't invite him to dinner. Occasionally, she made some food and gave it to Li Hongqi to take home, but he never took it away.

Shuying didn't know how to thank him. Before he left, Shuying stuffed him with a small can of mushroom meat sauce and asked him to take it home to taste it.

Li Hongqi was going to refuse, but Shuying said, "It's not something valuable. Take it home to taste it with your wife and my cooking skills. This sauce can be used to mix white noodles, as a sauce, or to cook stewed fish. If you don't accept it, I won't dare to trouble you for help in the future!"

Li Hongqi was very moved. He thought that Chen Tuan's wife gave him ordinary pickles or peppers, and his sister-in-law's cooking skills were not ordinary. His wife's cooking was average. Li Hongqi, who didn't want to accept it, didn't say anything. He thanked her with shining eyes and left with the package.

Shuying closed the door and waved to Chenyi, who was playing in the yard with a bowl in hand, to come over. Chenyi ate a tomato in one mouthful. The ripe tomatoes were sour, sweet and juicy, and especially delicious, though a little cold. He ate one himself and stood on tiptoe to feed one into Shuying's mouth, which made her heart melt.

The weather is cold, and eating too much of this stuff will make your stomach cold. Shuying doesn't let him eat too much. Chen Yi asked in a baby voice: "Auntie, can we have white noodles for lunch and add that fragrant meat sauce?"

The mushroom meat sauce made by his aunt this morning was so fragrant that Gao Yuan ran over to eat it. However, Gao Yuan was taken home by his elder brother not long after. The fragrance in his small yard has not yet dissipated. It is particularly fragrant and makes him want to drool.

Shuying held the bowl in one hand and took the child into the kitchen with the other hand, picked up a chopstick of mushroom meat sauce and let the child taste it first.

When she was making mushroom meat sauce just now, the kid ran to the kitchen a lot. If she hadn't said that the sauce should be eaten with noodles and that they would have this for lunch, the kid would have been reluctant to leave the kitchen.

Chen Yi tasted a chopstick of mushroom meat sauce. Except for being a little salty, it tasted really good. Chen Yi's eyes lit up after tasting it.

Chen Yi thought the mushroom meat sauce tasted good. After Li Hongqi returned home, he stuffed the sauce sent by his sister-in-law into his wife's hands: "This is the sauce my sister-in-law gave me. She said it's good for cooking and mixing white noodles!"

After Li Hongqi gave instructions, he went to training.

At first, Li Hongqi's wife really thought it was just a common pickled vegetable. When the bottle cap was opened, she took a chopstick to taste it. When she picked up the diced meat, Li Hongqi's wife tasted it and found that it was really meat. She was surprised.

Chen Tuan's wife actually sent a bottle of meat sauce to her family?

This meat sauce tasted very fragrant. She tasted it with a chopstick, and the fresh, spicy and spicy taste exploded on her tongue. It made her appetite open and especially hungry. She wanted to eat more after eating.

Li Hongqi's wife tasted it for several chopsticks before stopping.

She realized that Chen Tuan's wife was too generous to her family. Most people would not give her meat sauce. It was no wonder that her husband said that their leader and his wife were both real people and were especially nice to him. He also asked her to go to the leader's wife more often and help them when she was free.

Before, Li Hongqi's wife took into account that Chen Tuan was her husband's leader, and Chen Tuan's wife looked prettier than the girls in the city and had an extraordinary temperament. She did not dare to get close to Chen Tuan's wife for fear of offending her and worrying that she would not be willing to contact her.

At this time, Li Hongqi's wife had some thoughts about getting along with her, and decided to help whenever she came to her house.

At noon, Li Hongqi's wife made a simple dish of mixed wild vegetables and stewed tofu. She put a little meat sauce in the stewed tofu as her husband said, and nothing else. When it was done, she tasted it. The tofu was very tasty, and the soup was also fresh and fragrant, and it was very delicious with rice.

Li Hongqi's wife was very surprised when she tasted it.

At noon, when Li Hongqi came home from training, he ate the dishes made by his wife. The mixed wild vegetables were no different from usual, but the stewed tofu tasted quite good.

The soup had a bit of the fresh fragrance of mushrooms, and the tofu was also tasty, especially delicious with rice. Li Hongqi was very surprised. He had eaten the stewed tofu made by his wife before, but it always had a bean smell, and the taste was not tasty enough, so it was just average.

How did his wife make this stewed tofu at noon today? Why is it so delicious?

This afternoon, Li Hongqi ate one and a half bowls more of sweet potato rice than usual. He asked while wolfing down the food: "This stewed tofu you made is so delicious. How did you make it? How about we make stewed tofu for dinner?"

The tofu was made by himself, which was free. His wife's family used to sell tofu and had this skill.

Not only Li Hongqi loved it, but also Li Hongqi's wife loved this stewed tofu which was particularly tasty and a little spicy. She also ate an extra bowl of rice at noon.

After lunch, Li Hongqi's wife told her husband that what Chen Tuan's wife sent was not pickled vegetables but mushroom meat sauce, which tasted very good.

So, when she stewed the tofu, she didn't add anything but a little mushroom meat sauce. The taste really surprised her.

In the future, other dishes can also be added with mushroom meat sauce, and the taste will definitely be good.

Li Hongqi's wife couldn't help but sigh at Chen Tuan's wife's cooking skills. No wonder her husband kept talking about how good Chen Tuan's cooking skills were?

After tasting the mushroom meat sauce today, she really believed her husband's words.

Li Hongqi was also surprised when he heard his wife say that his sister-in-law gave him mushroom meat sauce. He knew very well how expensive meat was. He had a salary as a soldier, but the number of times the couple ate meat throughout the year could be counted on one hand.

His sister-in-law generously gave him meat sauce. Li Hongqi was moved and regretted accepting it. If he had known that his sister-in-law gave him meat sauce, he would never accept it.

But it was not easy to return it now that he had received it. Li Hongqi planned to help more often when he had time, and asked his wife to talk to his sister-in-law more often when she had time. Although his sister-in-law was very beautiful, she was very humble and treated him very well. He also said that he would send some tofu to his sister-in-law's house later.

Li Hongqi's wife said, "Okay, it just so happens that our tofu was made today, and it is fresh, but I didn't make much."

"It's okay, no matter how much we send, it's our intention!"

After the Li family had lunch, Li Hongqi's wife took a bowl and put four large cubes of tofu in it to the Chen family's yard.

In the main hall of the Chen family, Shuying had just taken her children to lunch. She didn't cook any dishes for lunch, just mixed white noodles with mushroom meat sauce, and a bowl of green vegetables.

The white noodles mixed with mushroom meat sauce tasted very good. The mushroom meat sauce was fresh, fragrant and spicy. When eating the noodles, you could also chew the diced meat that she had fried dry. The diced meat was crispy and fragrant. The two children, one large and one small, enjoyed it very much.

Hearing the knocking on the door outside the yard, Shuying asked the child to eat slowly while she went to the door to check.

Shuying was very surprised to see the tofu brought by Li Hongqi's wife.

Li Hongqi's wife was a down-to-earth person like her husband. She was young, had a dark face, wore a thick black buttoned cotton jacket, had delicate features, and had a long black braid hanging behind her. She was a little shy.

Li Hongqi's wife first thanked her for sending a can of mushroom meat sauce to her family, and then said: "Sister-in-law, this is the tofu I just made today, it's very fresh, I sent it to you to taste it!"

Shuying didn't intend to accept it, but when she heard Li Hongqi's wife said that the tofu was made by herself, she took her into the house without any hesitation to accept it.

"Sister-in-law, I'll just wait at the door, I won't go in!" Li Hongqi's wife didn't go into the house. Seeing that Li Hongqi's wife was very shy, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at her, so she had to go to the kitchen to get a bowl to accept it. She was still very surprised that Li Hongqi's wife sent this tofu.

There was also tofu in the market, and she had bought it several times, but the road was a bit far, and every time she came back, she was bumped by the muddy road, and when she returned home, the tofu was broken into pieces.

After pouring the tofu into her own bowl, Shuying helped to shake the bowl before taking it out and returning it to Li Hongqi's wife. She took her gloves and asked her what her name was. She wanted to call her sister, but when she found out that Li Hongqi's wife was two or three years older than her, Shuying had to say, "Hongqi's family, we are both new wives. Come to my house and sit more often when you have time. Your husband and my husband are familiar with each other, and I am a country girl like you. I felt that we have a special fate at first sight. Let's chat more when we have time!"

Shuying also mentioned that since she and her husband came to the military region, her husband has helped them a lot, and asked her not to be polite to her.

Chen Tuan's wife spoke in a gentle tone, soft and intimate voice, which made Li Hongqi's wife feel warm in her heart. She was a little embarrassed at first, but now she finally dared to raise her head.

She didn't dare to look closely just now. Her first impression was that Chen Tuan's wife was really white, even whiter than when she first came.

Now she looked carefully and saw that she was wearing a knee-length black woolen dress, which made her waist look particularly thin and her face particularly white. She had a white scarf around her slender swan neck. She looked carefully and found that Chen Tuan's wife's face was whiter than the white scarf around her neck.

Her skin was like snow, her black and shiny hair was scattered on her shoulders, and she tucked one side behind her ear, revealing her white earlobes and delicate face. Her temperament was particularly extraordinary.

Li Hongqi's wife was almost stunned. She knew that Chen Tuan's wife was beautiful before, but she didn't expect that Chen Tuan's wife would be so beautiful after not seeing her for just a few months.

No wonder some people outside are saying whether Chen Tuan's wife is a demon in disguise.

Li Hongqi's wife answered absentmindedly, and Shuying let her go only after she nodded.

Chapter 148

She not only gave a small can of the finished mushroom meat sauce to Li Hongqi's family, but also gave two small cans to Gao's family and Zhou's family.

In the past few months, the Gao and Zhou families have taken good care of her, and Shuying was not stingy. She gave each family a small can, after all, it contained meat, and there was no more.

But even this small can of meat sauce, in this context, is quite generous.

Look, Gao Dasao and Zhou Nizi didn't know at first that Yang Meizi (Axi's wife) gave them mushroom meat sauce. When they took it home and opened the bottle cap, they found that it was oil and diced meat, which shocked them.

It would not be good to return it now. Aunt Zhou could only think about when A-Xi's wife would return the favor to the Zhou family. She also planned to let her eldest daughter-in-law visit the Chen family frequently to see if A-Xi's wife needed any help.

For dinner, Aunt Zhou also added some mushroom meat sauce to the fish stew as A-Xi's wife said.

The spicy and fresh aroma not only attracted Teacher Zhou to come out of the study early, but also the other people in the Zhou family were hungry and couldn't wait to eat dinner.

"Mom, what did you cook for dinner? Why does it smell so good?" Zhou Weihong entered the kitchen and looked in to see what delicious dishes her mother had made.

Zhou Weihong still knew his mother's cooking skills. His mother's cooking skills were okay, but it was not very delicious.

Aunt Zhou had already tasted the stewed fish, which tasted very good, spicy, fresh and tasty without any fishy smell.

The fish meat was tasty and tender, and the stewed soup with some mushroom meat sauce was thick and fresh.

Aunt Zhou was also very surprised. She didn't expect that the fish with some mushroom meat sauce given by Ah Xi's wife would taste so good?

She didn't care to reply to her daughter-in-law and asked her daughter-in-law to bring the dishes into the main room for dinner.

Ye Shuning, who entered the kitchen later, brought the dishes into the main room first, and Zhou Weihong brought other dishes to the table.

The family sat at the table to eat dinner. Teacher Zhou, Zhou Shengtian, and Zhou Weihong couldn't help but pick up the stewed fish dish when they smelled the smell.

The fish meat is tender and tasty, and the soup is thick, fragrant, fresh and spicy. Put some of the soup in your mouth, it is fragrant and delicious with rice.

Not to mention the two brothers Zhou Shengtian and Zhou Weihong, Master Zhou was very surprised after tasting it: "This fish tastes good, how come it is so delicious?"

While curiously looking at his wife, his chopsticks kept picking up the stewed fish. Master Zhou was very satisfied with the meal, and he didn't touch other dishes at home.

Zhou Shengtian and Zhou Weihong also felt that this dish tonight was really to their taste. Zhou Shengtian not only picked up some for himself, but also picked up some for his wife, asking her to eat more.

Ye Shuning tasted the stewed fish, and it tasted really good, but it was a little spicy, but it was especially delicious with rice.

"Is this braised fish delicious?" Auntie Zhou asked deliberately with a smile.

Teacher Zhou didn't care to reply, and kept picking up the fish meat with chopsticks. The soup was also delicious. After serving the rice, Teacher Zhou scooped fish soup to mix with the rice. The spicy and rich soup mixed with the rice made Teacher Zhou eat three bowls of rice in a row.

Zhou Weihong and Ye Shuning also didn't stop eating. It was only after Zhou Shengtian wolfed down another bowl of rice that he went to serve the rice and said, "Mom, the braised fish you made tonight is really to my taste. When will we make it again?"

Look, Zhou Shengtian and his sister each ate an extra bowl of rice tonight.

Zhou Shengtian ate four bowls of rice, and Zhou Weihong and Ye Shuning, two female comrades, ate two and a half bowls of rice tonight.

Auntie Zhou was also happy to see that the family loved to eat so much.

Aunt Zhou had fish soup mixed with rice, and she ate a lot.

The whole family ate a lot.

After dinner, Aunt Zhou said that Axi's wife sent a can of mushroom meat sauce to the family, and she added some of this mushroom meat sauce to the fish stew tonight. Who would have thought that it tasted so good?

She loved it very much.

The Zhou family suddenly realized.

Aunt Zhou planned to stew fish again when the family bought fish, and stewing other dishes with mushroom meat sauce should also taste good.

The Zhou family had a lively dinner, and the Gao family was not to be outdone.

Gao's wife was reluctant to stew the fish, so she stewed some cabbage and added some mushroom meat sauce. The meat sauce contained diced meat, mushrooms and oil, so how could the dishes not taste good?

Gao Tuan was a little surprised to see that the cabbage stewed by his wife tonight was not plain but with a lot of oil and red soup.

After tasting the cabbage, Gao Tuan was also very surprised and surprised. The cabbage stewed by his wife tonight tasted good.

Spicy and flavorful, with some minced meat, Gao Tuan ate three bowls of rice for dinner.

The three brothers of the Gao family also had a good appetite. Gao Zhigao kept saying to Gao Dasao: "Mom, our stewed cabbage tonight is so delicious! Can we cook our cabbage like this every day in the future? It's especially good with rice!"

Gao Tuan ate voraciously and nodded, praising Gao Dasao's cooking skills for once. He thought that if his wife stewed cabbage for him like this every day, he would not mind his wife feeding him cabbage and radish every day.

Shuying did not expect that mushroom meat sauce was so popular in the Gao and Zhou families. She made pork belly stewed with tofu for dinner.

The pork belly and tofu were specially fried in oil, and then a little mushroom meat sauce was added and slowly stewed. The stewed soup was thick and sprinkled with some chopped green onions, which was particularly fragrant. In addition, a vegetable was stir-fried.

Dinner was almost ready.

Not only did she like braised pork belly with tofu, her children loved it too.

Shuying scooped some soup for the children to mix with the rice, and Chen Yi's cheeks were bulging with food.

It was just a little spicy, and Chen Yi kept inhaling. Shuying poured a glass of water and placed it on the table for him to drink by himself.

When serving the second bowl of rice, Shuying was afraid that the child would find it too spicy, so she didn't give him soup to mix with the rice. Instead, Chen Yi took the initiative to ask for soup to mix with the rice, pouting and proudly saying, "Auntie, our dishes are more fragrant than other people's dishes, and they are especially delicious!"

After that, she buried her head in eating the rice and vegetables. Shuying knew that this kid had a heavy taste just like his uncle.

In a blink of an eye, the Great Cold has passed and it is almost the end of the year. After the Great Cold, the weather has become completely cold, and there have been two snowfalls.

When Shuying got up early in the morning, she not only dressed herself up, but also dressed her children in a lot of clothes.

In this weather, warm underwear and sweaters and trousers she had knitted before can all be put on, and the shoes crocheted with wool can also come in handy.

She crocheted several pairs, for men, children, and herself.

After putting on cotton jackets, socks and shoes for the children, Shuying also took out the Lei Feng drooping ear military cap she bought at the market recently. It was particularly popular in this era. There was a red star in the middle of the cap, and Chen Yi liked it very much.

Shuying put a hat on the child. The Leifeng cap covered the ears and was especially warm. Fortunately, the child was good-looking. He looked cute.

Chen Yi stood still, blinking her big eyes, and said softly, "Auntie, I'm warm, very, very warm!"

As long as I'm warm, it's fine!

After taking the child to breakfast, Shuying let the child go out to play.

However, it snowed and it was icy everywhere. She told the child not to go far and to play with the three brothers of the Gao family nearby.

Chen Yi's response was particularly loud.

Before the child went out, Shuying also put gloves on Chen Yi.

Chen Yi smiled as his auntie put gloves on him, her mouth was especially sweet: "Auntie, I like you so much! I like you much more than my uncle!"

Chen Yi gestured with her two little hands while speaking, and there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard, and the voices of Gao Yuan and Liang Goudan also came in.

"Big brother, are you awake?"

"Chen Yi, have you had breakfast? We are going to play, are you going?"

"Wait for me, I'll be there soon!" Chen Yi said in a hurry.

After getting fully armed, Shuying let her children go out to play. The New Year is coming soon, and there are many things to do at home. Today is also the second to last market of the year, and she still has a lot of New Year goods to buy.

Chen Yi opened the gate, and Liang Goudan and several other children were particularly curious to see Chen Yi all dressed up.

No one was wearing a hat or gloves, and the children were curious and envious.

Liang Goudan first stared at the Lei Feng hat on Chen Yi's head, and asked him if it was particularly warm. Chen Yi gave him a proud look, and Liang Goudan said, "Chen Yi, my family also has a hat like yours, and I want to wear a hat tomorrow!"

After Liang Goudan finished speaking, Gao Yuan also said that his father also had a Lei Feng hat and a military coat, which was particularly impressive, but what made Gao Yuan more envious was the new cotton jacket Chen Yi was wearing.

It was new at first glance, and the cotton jacket he was wearing belonged to his eldest and second brothers, and he had patched it up a lot.

Chen Yi focused his attention on a strange, cautious, and red face. He asked Liang Goudan and Gao Yuan, "Who is he?"

Gao Yuan first introduced Fang Xiaobao, "Boss, his name is Fang Xiaobao, he's new here. He wants to play with us!"

Before Chen Yi could speak, Liang Goudan and Gao Yuan whispered in Chen Yi's ear, saying that Fang Xiaobao was very miserable, he had no parents, and now lived with his uncle.

Chen Yi nodded and agreed to play together. Fang Xiaobao breathed a sigh of relief and took the initiative to talk to Chen Yi very cautiously.

When everyone was running together, Gao Yuan came to Chen Yi's ear to talk. He knew much more than Liang Goudan. He had heard his mother talk about the gossip of the Fang family next door. He continued to whisper: "Boss, Fang Xiaobao is in a terrible situation. His father died, his mother ran away, and his aunt didn't want to support him and his sister. She scolded them for being freeloaders every day and said she wanted to divorce his uncle. But his grandmother was very good to him! With his grandmother around, his aunt didn't dare to bully them."

Gao Yuan didn't know what divorce meant yet. He didn't like Fang Xiaobao's aunt very much. Chen Yi was a smart kid and understood the meaning of divorce. After hearing Gao Yuan say that Fang Xiaobao's aunt bullied him, his face became a little "dignified".

Gao Yuan continued, "My mother said that Aunt Yang is a very nice person, and Uncle Chen is very lucky to marry Aunt Yang. Uncle Fang is not as lucky as Uncle Chen!"

When Chen Yi heard Gao Yuan's mother say good things about his aunt, his originally "serious" round face also showed a proud smile: "My aunt is very nice, and she is also very, very nice to me!"

Gao Yuan really knows why Aunt Yang treats the eldest brother very well.

At first, when he just found out that the eldest brother was not Aunt Yang's biological child, he felt sorry for his eldest brother. Later, Aunt Yang treated the eldest brother very well, better than his biological mother treated the three brothers, and he was envious.

Now, Gao Yuan looked at the new clothes and new shoes on his eldest brother, and he was envious again.

Gao Yuan continued, "Boss, Fang Xiaobao is so pitiful. Let's play with him in the future!"

Chen Yi nodded seriously, took out a slingshot from his pocket, tried to shoot, and said, "If his aunt bullies him in the future, you tell him to come to me!"

"Okay, Boss!"

After washing the dishes, Shuying rode a bicycle to the market. Passing by Gao's house, he met Gao's wife. Shuying asked Gao's wife if she wanted to go to the market. If she did, she would take her there.

It was almost the end of the year, and Gao's wife naturally had to prepare New Year's goods. Of course, she had to go. Yang Meizi was going to the market, and Gao's wife happened to take a ride.

When they arrived at the market, the two agreed to meet at noon before parting ways.

Chapter 149

The market was very lively. Although it had snowed a few days ago, there were many people setting up stalls and gathering.

She had a lot of good stuff in her mall, but in order not to arouse suspicion, Shuying still bought some dried goods and preserved fruits at the market, as well as some shanks, a few pounds of fresh pork, spare ribs, shrimp skin, sea fish, kelp, etc.

As for the green vegetables, she had them at home, and the green vegetables planted in her front yard had grown almost as much in the past few months.

She also bought some walnut crisps that the children loved to eat.

After buying everything, Shuying raised her wrist to check the time and prepared to go back to the place where she met Gao Dasao.

When she was pushing her bicycle back, she saw someone selling shrimps at a stall. Fresh shrimps are rare now, and they are particularly large. She heard from the other party that they were just caught from the sea. Shuying bought a few pounds of live shrimps and some other seafood and fish.

After paying, when she was carrying the backpack, she felt that it was a bit heavy. Shuying hung the backpack in front of the car and pushed the car back to the place where she met Gao Dasao.

When she arrived, Gao Dasao was already waiting there with a basket.

Shuying said hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, you have been waiting for a long time, have you bought everything? If you have, let's go back first!"

"I didn't wait long, sister-in-law, I just arrived." In fact, Gao Dasao had already bought everything and was waiting here.

She was a person who wanted to spend every penny in half. If it wasn't for the New Year, she really didn't want to come to the market.

Once you come to the market, you have to spend money.

Look, a few pounds of meat and a fish cost her a lot of money. Mrs. Gao is still feeling very painful.

If her husband hadn't repeatedly asked her to buy a few more pounds of meat this year during breakfast, she couldn't let the children eat radishes and vegetables all year round. She just wanted to buy a pound of meat to taste it.

Mrs. Gao opened the basket and showed Shuying what she bought, saying, "Sister, you don't know how much money I spent on these meat and fish this morning. You, Gao Tuan, wanted me to buy a few more pounds of meat. Does he think buying meat is like buying cabbage? You, Gao Tuan, can only say that he is a grown man, how can he understand the hardship of us women who are in charge of the family."

Mrs. Gao frowned, and Shuying glanced at her a few times. She saw that although Mrs. Gao bought less things today, she really bought a lot of meat this time.

She had come to the market with Mrs. Gao several times before, and Mrs. Gao was only willing to buy a pound of meat at most, but this time she had to buy at least two or three pounds.

Shuying said, "Sister-in-law, the meat you bought is really fat!"

"That's right, thanks to you for bringing me to the market early today!" Gao Dasao was still feeling pain in her heart, but when she saw the pork belly in her basket, she smiled.

Actually, it wasn't a loss to buy this meat today. She came to the market early in Yang Meizi's car, so she got the good meat.

This fat meat can probably make her a lot of lard.

Before Gao Dasao got on the car, she glanced at the New Year's goods that Shuying bought. When she saw that Yang Meizi bought a basket of things, Gao Dasao took a breath and said, "Why are there so many? Can you eat them all?"

She saw that there was meat, ribs and even shrimps in it. Oh my God.

Why are Yang Meizi's hand seams so big? What will she do when she and Chen Tuan have a baby in the future?

Just now, Gao Dasao remembered the mushroom meat sauce that Yang Meizi gave her family a few days ago. The meat sauce contained diced meat and oil.

If it were her, she would not want to give it to others, just to make such a sauce. The mushroom meat sauce that Yang Meizi gave her family contained diced meat and oil, and there was really a lot of ingredients.

Gao Dasao advised her earnestly that she should save money and plan for the future. If she has money in her hands, she will not be in a hurry in the future, right?

The two had different ideas about the relationship over the decades, and Shuying didn't intend to force Gao Dasao to agree with her point of view. She knew that Gao Dasao had good intentions, and nodded while riding her bike, saying, "Sister-in-law, I understand. We bought a lot at the market this time because it's almost the end of the year. No matter how much we save, we still have to eat a good meal all year round."

"That's right!" Otherwise, she wouldn't be willing to buy meat if her husband only said a few words. Gao Dasao continued, "Sister, you don't know how much your Gao Tuan likes to eat the mushroom meat sauce you make. I usually put some in stewed vegetables, and it's so delicious. You Gao Tuan and the children eat a few more bowls of rice."

Shuying pursed her lips and smiled. She knew very well that Gao Dasao was too frugal on weekdays. Her cooking was almost the same as her mother's. How could the cooking be delicious if she didn't even use oil?

She added a lot of mushroom meat sauce and the stew was really delicious.

Seeing that Gao Dasao was mumbling about how to cook the fish, she was reluctant to make pickled fish again. However, Gao Dasao also knew that the fish she cooked before was unpalatable and fishy. Her children would not eat it, and her husband did not like it either. She was also afraid of wasting the fish.

Shuying simply said, "Sister-in-law, fish stewed with tofu and some meat sauce should taste good. I just know that Hongqi's family has the skill of making tofu. It's almost the end of the year, and I plan to spend some money to ask Hongqi's family to help make some tofu. Sister-in-law, do you want tofu?"

Sister-in-law Gao is not familiar with Li Hongqi's wife, and she doesn't know that Li Hongqi's wife has this skill. After hearing what Shuying said, she was also a little tempted. It's not that there is no tofu in the market, but it's not fresh now. Besides, fresh tofu is a good thing that everyone is fighting for, but it's hard to get.

Without waiting for Gao's wife to reply, Shuying continued, "Sister-in-law, how about I ask Hongqi's family if they are free first and discuss the price. If the price is right, I will notify you!"

"That's good! Sister Yang, don't forget to notify sister-in-law!"

"Okay!"

The two went their separate ways at the door of Gao's house.

There was a group of children in Gao's yard. Chen Yi saw Gao's wife coming back first, and knew that his aunt must have come back too. He greeted his friends and ran to the yard first.

The three brothers of the Gao family also followed Gao's wife into the main hall.

"Mom, did you buy anything delicious?" Gao Yuan asked anxiously.

Gao Zhi and Gao Xiang were old enough to know something, and they were also very aware of their mother's stingy nature. On weekdays, their mother was reluctant to use oil when cooking, so how could she spend money to buy them food?

As expected!

As soon as food was mentioned, Gao's wife immediately scolded Gao Yuan: "What are you eating? Did I miss your food or drink? Didn't I let you eat enough?" She also called her eldest brother to get some dried sweet potatoes for her youngest brother to eat.

Not to mention Gao Yuan's dislike, even Gao Zhi and Gao Xiang disliked their own dried sweet potatoes. They were tired of eating sweet potatoes every day.

Or when the three brothers saw that their mother actually bought a lot of meat and fish this time, the three brothers cheered and cried happily.

Mrs. Gao took a basket and went to the kitchen to make some lard. Seeing that there were other children in the yard, she asked her eldest son to go to her house to get some dried sweet potatoes for the children.

"I know, mother!"

"Mother, I want to eat lard!" Gao Xiang and Gao Yuan shouted and followed Mrs. Gao into the kitchen.

In the Chen family yard, Shuying had just put the meat and vegetables into the cupboard when Chen Yi ran in breathlessly.

He was wearing a lot of clothes and couldn't run fast. His cheeks were rosy, and his big round eyes were rolling around. He was particularly smart when he looked at her: "Auntie, I'm back!"

Shuying took a piece of the walnut cake she had just bought and gave it to him, and asked the child to sit in the main room to eat.

Chen Yi dragged a stool and sat down to eat.

It was still early, past ten o'clock. I didn't buy many snacks at the market today. The child had already eaten the Jiangmi Tiao and White Rabbit cakes I bought before.

Shuying planned to make some snacks that the child had never eaten in the next two days, such as snowflake crisps and egg yolk crisps. It happened that she pickled a lot of salted duck eggs a month ago.

Shuying took the basin out to wash the vegetables and saw that Chen Yi was not in the main room.

When Shuying left the main room, she heard the baby voice of her child, saying, "I'll give you a cake. From now on, you and Xiaoyuan will call me the boss!"

Shuying choked. This kid likes to be the boss so much? Just as he was about to call for help, he heard the boy continue, "Your aunt is so bad, she's a bad woman! She bullied my aunt before! Don't play with her!"

"If your aunt bullies you again, you can complain to your uncle and ask him to divorce her!"

"If your aunt bullies you again, you can also tell me and I'll vent your anger for you! I'll hit her with a slingshot!" Chen Yi's childish eyes were rarely sharp. As he spoke, he took out his own slingshot, picked up a small stone from the ground, and shot it at the tree across the yard.

Needless to say, this is really accurate.

Shuying's face turned black after hearing this. When the two children saw Shuying, Fang Xiaobao ran away first. Chen Yi looked guilty, and his round eyes rolled. The little cool guy immediately became cute and ran over to hug Shuying's calf, saying in a baby voice: "Auntie! Our biscuits are delicious, especially fragrant!"

The little guy ate walnut crisps while talking, and his clothes were full of crumbs. Shuying bent down and just wanted to pat the child, but he saw that the front of the child's clothes was wet and there were several black marks. Shuying had a headache.

Chen Yi felt even more guilty and lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Shuying.

"What happened? Did you fall?" Shuying asked.

When he found out that the boy didn't fall down and climb trees anymore, Shuying wanted to spank him and planned to let him wash his own clothes in the future.

He took the child back to the room and changed his coat.

"Are you cold?"

"No!" Chen Yi grinned. He was wearing a lot of clothes and didn't feel cold at all.

Shuying touched his sweater. Fortunately, only the cotton padded jacket was a little wet. The inside was still dry. After changing the child's clothes, Shuying asked the boy to wash the cotton padded jacket himself later.

Chen Yi nodded seriously: "My uncle said that men should do their own things. I can wash clothes!"

Shuying thought of the child just now and asked Chen Yi who the child was.

When he found out that the other party was the nephew of Deputy Commander Fang who had just arrived, Shuying nodded.

"Auntie, Fang Xiaobao's auntie is so bad. When we were playing just now, we ran into Fang Xiaobao's auntie on the road. Fang Xiaobao called her, but she scolded him and called his grandmother an old man!" Chen Yi said.

Shuying frowned and didn't allow Chen Yi to imitate Xia Lina's words. She didn't like Xia Lina to begin with, and now she didn't like her even more.

However, she heard from Mrs. Gao that Deputy Commander Fang was a filial son. This time he didn't follow Xia Lina's lead and insisted on letting Fang's mother and niece stay in the military area. Shuying also looked up to him.

Shuying didn't interfere with the children's play. Just when she wanted to tell everyone to have fun in the future, someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard gate, so Shuying had to take the children out first.

The person who came was Fang's mother. She saw her grandson chewing walnut cookies and learned that the children next door gave them to him. She brought people to express her gratitude and also wanted to get to know her neighbors. Her daughter-in-law was not a good person and she, as a mother, could not let her be a burden to her son. She took the initiative to get close to the two neighbors and gave each of them a handful of sour beans she made from her hometown.

Chapter 150

At first sight, Shuying had a good impression of the kind old lady in front of her. How could she accept her things? It was only after Fang's mother repeatedly asked her to try her pickled sour beans that Shuying took the sour beans from her.

"Thank you, Auntie!"

This was the first time Fang's mother met the daughter-in-law of the Chen family next door. These days, she had heard her daughter-in-law scolding the neighbors at home.

She thought the neighbors were unreasonable, but when she really met them, she realized that the daughter-in-law was really good-looking. Look at her white face and black hair. She would believe that she was a fairy. She had lived for almost her whole life and had never seen such a beautiful daughter-in-law.

Fang's mother was amazed and looked around. She saw that the other party was holding a child of four or five years old in his left hand. The child looked very good, with a chubby face and looked very smart.

The child looked more like his father than his mother. The old lady who had lived in the countryside for a lifetime didn't know what mixed blood was, but she thought that the "mother and son" looked really good.

Fang's mother was gossiping in her heart. The two talked for a while. Before Shuying wanted to send some vegetables back to Fang's mother, Fang's mother hurried back to Fang's house to make lunch.

Xia Lina just learned that the sour beans Fang's mother brought were for the Chen family next door. Her face was very long, and she cursed the old man for being a waste of money in her heart.

However, her husband was filial, and Xia Lina did not dare to divorce him. She did not dare to say anything. She also heard Fang's mother praising Yang Shuying for being polite and well-mannered, and raising a good child, and the men in the Chen family next door were blessed.

Jealous in her heart, Xia Lina blurted out with a green face: "Mom, you don't know that some people are not as good as they seem. They pretend to be good people on the outside, but do dirty things on the inside."

While talking, she brought up the previous "abuse" of the child, saying that the child was Chen Tuan's nephew, not the baby born from her belly, how could she raise the child as her own, and even the then Political Commissar Liang was alarmed and invited him to the interrogation room.

Fang's mother was shocked: "What did you say?"

Xia Lina continued to slander Yang Shuying, saying that she relied on her good looks to seduce men and had tried to seduce her man before.

Fang's mother: "..."

"Mom, if you don't believe me, go outside and ask other people if this is true. Otherwise, why don't I like to be with the girl next door? I don't want to feed my vegetables to pigs, and I don't want to give them to the foxes, raccoons, and spirits next door." Xia Lina sighed again and pretended to be pretentious: "Chen Tuan is also unlucky to marry such a daughter-in-law. When Chen Tuan was on a mission, I saw her flirting with other men!"

Fang's mother just came, and she didn't get along with the girl next door, so she didn't know who the girl next door was.

But Fang's mother is not stupid. She just saw that the kid next door was well dressed and had a rosy face. He didn't look like he had been abused.

Fang's mother said it, and Xia Lina said that because Yang Shuying was invited to the interrogation room by Political Commissar Liang, she didn't dare to abuse the child these days.

Fang's mother was half-believing and half-doubting, but seeing that her daughter-in-law spoke in a convincing manner and swore that she should ask outsiders, she couldn't really ask outsiders. For a moment, she really believed her daughter-in-law's words. She was very dissatisfied with Xia Lina as a daughter-in-law.

Now, after a comparison, Fang's mother's dissatisfaction with her daughter-in-law Xia Lina has decreased a little. She used to think that Xia Lina was unfilial and heartless, but now she thinks that there is nothing wrong with her daughter-in-law taking care of her own family, at least she is devoted to her youngest son.

Fang's mother, who originally wanted to spend more time with her neighbor, also gave up the idea.

Shuying was about to go back to the house with the sour beans when Gao Dasao came over and chatted with her for a few words.

Fang's mother gave each of them a handful of sour beans. Gao said, "This old lady is easy to get along with. Although Xia Lina is not a good person, she is very lucky! I just hope she doesn't ruin her own luck!"

Deputy Regiment Fang is also an excellent person. She is good to Xia Lina. This mother-in-law who came to the military district seems to be easy to get along with. She just said a few words to Fang's mother. The old lady is kind, interesting and knows how to behave. Gao, who has lived for most of her life, knows the importance of having a good mother-in-law.

If her parents-in-law were not so partial, she would have no complaints about sending money every month, but her mother-in-law is good. She got the advantage of their eldest wife and is partial to her younger uncle.

The shadow of the tree with good parents-in-law doesn't say anything and listens to Gao's complaints patiently.

"Speaking of luck, Sister Yang, you are luckier than Deputy Tuan's family!" Let's not talk about Sister Yang's previous luck of picking up wild boars and rabbits, just talk about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Although she has never met Chen Tuan's parents, she knows very well that Chen's father and mother are very thoughtful and often send packages to Sister Yang.

Sister Gao just complained a few words and asked her how to make sour beans?

"Sister-in-law, sour beans fried with minced meat are delicious. It doesn't matter if you put less minced meat. Add some mushroom meat sauce!" Shuying replied.

"Okay, I'll do it this way later. We also bought a lot of meat at home." Sister Gao was still boiling pork fat. It was almost done. At this time, she asked her eldest son to help watch the fire, and she took the time to come out and chatter.

Before Gao Dasao returned to the yard, Shuying said that noodles with sour beans and minced meat, soup noodles, and fried noodles were all fine.

When Gao Dasao returned to the kitchen, the lard had been cooked, and the kitchen was full of the special aroma of lard and dregs.

Today, the family cooked lard, and the three Gao Zhi brothers did not run out to play, especially Gao Yuan, who kept shouting for dregs.

Gao Dasao gave each of them two pieces of dregs, which were hot and fragrant. Gao Dasao also gave two more pieces of dregs to the third brother to give to Chen Yi to taste, and asked him to go and come back early, and she scooped up the rest of the dregs to cook for the New Year.

"I know, mother!" Gao Yuan took the dregs and ran out.

The gate of Chen's courtyard was not closed, Gao Yuan ran in and shouted: "Big brother, we have oil residue to eat at home, it's delicious, my mother asked me to bring you two pieces!"

Chen Yi also likes to eat the burnt oil residue, and the two children chewed it outside the yard until it was crunchy. The burnt oil residue was so delicious that the two children wanted to swallow it with their tongues.

After eating the oil residue in his hand, Gao Yuan prepared to go back.

Chen Yi also left a piece of oil residue in the kitchen and stuffed it into Shuying's mouth. Shuying asked him to eat it himself, she didn't like to eat oil residue.

Chen Yi was sure that the aunt didn't eat oil residue, so he stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it, and it was fragrant.

Shuying had just made a dish of boiled shrimps, which were especially delicious when dipped in sauce. Shuying picked up three boiled shrimps, dipped them in sauce, and took them out of the kitchen for Gao Yuan to hold. The three brothers each tasted one.

"Thank you, Aunt Yang!"

Gao Yuan had never eaten shrimps before, but he thought that the dishes cooked by Aunt Yang were especially delicious. Gao Yuan happily ran back home and shared the shrimps with his two brothers.

Gao Zhi and Gao Xiang had never eaten shrimps before, but boiled shrimps dipped in sauce were very delicious. The three brothers loved them very much. They were still not satisfied and envied Chen Yi.

For lunch, Shuying didn't make minced meat and sour beans. She made boiled shrimp and fried sweet potato vines.

The two of them sat in the main hall to eat lunch.

Chen Yi and Shuying both loved boiled shrimp.

It was a little troublesome to peel the shrimp. Chen Yi's hands were greasy. Later, he was too lazy to peel the shrimp shells and stuffed them into his mouth to chew. Shuying couldn't bear it, so she peeled a few for the child and put them in his bowl to eat with rice.

"Auntie, Xiaoyuan's fried dough sticks are so delicious!" Chen Yi swallowed the rice in his mouth and said with expectation, almost asking when we can have fried dough sticks.

Fried dough sticks are a great delicacy for children nowadays. The burnt fried dough sticks are particularly fragrant. No wonder the children love to eat them.

Seeing that the child was very greedy, Shuying also said that she would fry some oil residue for her in the evening, which made Chen Yi very happy. She thought of her uncle and asked him when he would come home.

Shuying also missed her husband, so she couldn't give the child a definite answer, and only said that he would be home soon.

Chen Yi was happy to continue eating.

After lunch, before washing the dishes, Shuying told her child not to dirty his clothes again, and if he did, he would have to wash his clothes by himself.

There was no punishment for asking him to wash clothes, so Chen Yi was a little eager to try. Shuying didn't want the child to get all his clothes wet, so he had to say that if he got his clothes dirty again, he wouldn't make any delicious food for him. Only then did Chen Yi honestly say that he would not climb trees or dirty his clothes.

The weather was extremely cold and it was getting dark soon. Shuying took the child to have lunch early, wash up and go to bed.

Before going to bed, Chen Yi didn't forget to drink milk.

In the past few months, Shuying asked the child to insist on drinking milk. The milk now is real milk without water. After drinking it for a few months, the effect is very good.

Even the child's complexion has improved a lot, white and tender, completely different from most of the skinny and malnourished children now, and he is a little taller.

After giving the child a bath, she almost couldn't hold the child because it was too heavy.

Chen Yi buried her embarrassed face in her aunt's shoulder, and was too embarrassed to show her face. She managed to utter a sentence after a while: "I'm not heavy, aunt! I'm always light!"

Shuying thought to herself, if this kid is not heavy, then who is heavy? She patted the little guy's butt and let him get into the quilt and sleep quickly.

Chen Yi took the initiative to say in a baby voice: "Aunt, I'll warm the quilt for you! You will be hot when you sleep later!"

It's almost the New Year, and she didn't assign any homework these days to let the child have a good rest.

Shuying watched the child rolling around in the quilt while drying her hair. When the child fell asleep, her hair was almost dry.

Putting on a coat and applying the skincare products dripping with nectar, this is her daily homework, and she did not neglect her body, neck and face.

While applying the skincare products, she looked at the mirror by the shadow of the tree. Since she has maintained her skin to be cold and white in the past few months, the change is indeed quite big.

It is said that a white complexion can hide three uglinesses. She was also white before, but it was far from being as transparent as it is now.

As her skin became transparent and cold and white, her facial features seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes, and her face value also had a qualitative change. Her facial features have become much more delicate and beautiful, but if you look closely, it seems that there is no big change.

Shuying was particularly satisfied. Not only was she satisfied with her improved looks, but also that her skin had become white and tender over the past three months. She could leave red marks with a light touch, and she also had thick black hair.

Shuying looked in the mirror for a while. It was too cold, so she went to bed soon.

Needless to say, with a warm little guy, Shuying felt warm when she got into the quilt.

The wind blew at night, and the big and small slept very soundly.

In the morning, Shuying made breakfast and called the children to get up. Chen Yi could also dress now, and the little guy dressed in a proper way.

After getting dressed, he washed up and had breakfast.

After breakfast, Shuying put on a hat and gloves for the child, let the child play nearby, and went to Li Hongqi's house to see if Li Hongqi's wife could help make some tofu.

As soon as she went out, she ran into Deputy Tuan Fang next door and greeted him politely.

Deputy Tuan Fang, who went out early and came back late every day, had not seen Chen Tuan's wife for several months. When he saw her this time, he first looked at her and then was a little afraid to recognize her: "Sister-in-law...sister-in-law?"
