"Did you see Auntie?

As soon as Chen Chuliang entered the house from outside, he saw Zhao Xiaoya in the living room making three dishes and one soup. She was slow to do it, and I don't know if it was because she didn't fire for a long time. After finishing the meal, it was already on the table, looked at Chen Chuliang and said, "If you don't come back, I'll go over to find you." ”

Chen Chuliang had just eaten it, and his stomach was about to burst, but he still had to eat a little bit of what Zhao Xiaoya made, and sat down at the dinner table again: "I saw it." It's also confirmed, it's Auntie. ”

Zhao Xiaoya also sat down together and asked, "Auntie, has you eaten, why don't you ask her to come over?" ”

Chen Chuliang said: "Didn't you take the toast?" She said she'd come later. ”

Zhao Xiaoya said: "Okay, when we have a party on the weekend, we will call my aunt again." Come on, try my craft, even if it's all a little dish. ”

Zhao Xiaoya enthusiastically put vegetables into Chen Chuliang's bowl.

Chen Chuliang was about to cry.

Can you still eat this special stomach?

But he still didn't refuse Zhao's kindness. ，

Zhao Xiaoya saw that Chen Chuliang looked 'moved', and her performance towards Lao Chen was quite acceptable, and the three dishes and one soup on the table today were the highest level she had come up with. He smiled and said, "Comment on me after eating, how does it taste? I can count the number of times I fire in a month." ”

Chen Chuliang took a bite and thought silently in his heart, whether it is in the past or present life, Zhao Xiaoya's craftsmanship is still not good, it can't be regarded as unpalatable, but it is definitely not as good as the food cooked by Han Zhi or Ji Jing, and Chen Ying's fight. However, it still couldn't dampen her enthusiasm, and said: "Yes, keep up the good work." ”

That's a good sound. Zhao Xiaoya herself began to eat with satisfaction.

Chen Chuliang ate very slowly, he actually held on, but Zhao Xiaoya didn't find the clue.

The two ate quietly for a while.

At the door, Chen's mother's voice came in: "Xiaoya....."

Zhao Xiaoya hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks: "Auntie, you are here." ”

Looking at Aunt Chu who walked in, Zhao Xiaoya said, "Auntie is eating with us." ”

Chen's mother shook her head and said, "You guys eat..... leave me alone." ”

Zhao Xiaoya nodded, and then introduced to Chen's mother: "Auntie should have seen this guy Chen Chuliang." ”

Chen's mother smiled and said, "Well, I've seen it." ”

Seeing that Chen Chuliang had eaten so much at her place before, and continued to eat when he came back, he knew that his son's heart for Xiaoya was reluctant to make the girl unhappy.

"Auntie, sit down, I'll pour you a glass of water. Zhao Xiaoya didn't even eat, and greeted Chen's mother warmly.

Mother Chen shook her hand, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked Zhao Xiaoya: "You're welcome, don't worry about me." Oh, by the way, Xiaoya, my son is going to come from China to see me. ”

Zhao Xiaoya thought to herself, could it be that Auntie came here for this.

"Congratulations, Auntie. Zhao Xiaoya said with a smile.

Chen's mother said, "Look, what I told you before, how did you think about it?"

"Auntie, I...."Zhao Xiaoya didn't know how to refuse: "Actually, Auntie, I already have a boyfriend." ”

After speaking, she looked at Lao Chen: "He is my boyfriend in China." Auntie, you know each other too. ”

In order to refuse her aunt's kindness, Zhao Xiaoya generously introduced Chen Chuliang, and even used the word 'boyfriend' in front of Chen's mother, she shouldn't know that Chen Chuliang was Chen's mother's son, of course, it was estimated that it was just to let Chen's mother be desperate to introduce her to her 'own son'.

Who knows, Chen's mother smiled when she heard this: "This kid is good." ”

Chen Chuliang, who was listening, felt that his mother was really worried about his son's happiness, no, in a sentence or two, he became Zhao Xiaoya's 'boyfriend', since Zhao Xiaoya said so, there was no chance to regret it in the future. And naturally, it was completely the mother and son who had agreed not to show their stuffing. No wonder they all say that their own mother is the best, this is the real hammer.

Chen Chuliang was secretly laughing, Zhao Xiaoya quietly glared at him on the side, and probably said: Don't laugh, cooperate with me.

Chen Chuliang simply closed his mouth.

Seeing these two young people like enemies, one is the son she thinks about day and night, and the other is the girl who she has always wanted her to be her daughter-in-law, and it just so happens that these two people are interesting to each other, so Chen's mother doesn't have to deliberately match. His face was filled with happiness.

I sat in the house for a while.

After the two of them finished eating, Chen's mother smiled and said to Zhao Xiaoya: "Auntie is going to the Yorkes' farm in the afternoon, and I want to ask you to come with me." ”

Zhao Xiaoya is often invited to go to the church with her aunt to go to the farm, and she is used to it, so she thought that she would just take Chen Chuliang to this farm to pretend to be a little bit of a life and feel what kind of life is a farmer in North America, so she nodded and said, "Is it Daddy York, are they going to have a party again?"

Chen's mother said: "I want to go over and pick some fresh vegetables, fruits and meat. ”

Zhao Xiaoya grinned, usually aunts go to the town market to buy vegetables, it is estimated that her son is coming, so she has to go to the farm to choose the best food. He said, "Auntie's son is coming, so Auntie should prepare the best food for him." It's really a blessing to have such a mother as my aunt. ”

"Yes, my son is coming, and I will make him something to eat. Chen's mother glanced at Chen Chuliang, her face full of doting. was seen through, and Chen's mother was not afraid to say it. The food at the town market can only be considered fresh, but if you want to eat the most authentic and natural things, you have to go to the farm and choose them. So when she came over just now, she had already called.

"I've already called the Yorks, and their son will come to pick us up later. It should be almost there, let's go out. ”

Chen's mother should be accustomed to this side of life, and she knows many people in the town, and her popularity in this red leaf town is very good. The circle of life is also some ordinary people.

"Then let's go, John's guy is frizzy and has no patience at all. ”

After simply cleaning up the house, Zhao Xiaoya took Chen's mother in her arms, Chen Chuliang followed behind, and the three of them went out together.

As soon as the three of them went out, a young man with brown hair, a high nose, blue eyes, and a Ford Raptor pulled over to the side of the road.

The young man stepped down from the Ford Raptor with the tall skeleton of a North American, making him look strong.

"Aunt Chu, Xiaoya, my dad asked me to pick you up. "John speaks English, but Chen Chuliang speaks good English and can hear it clearly.

This young man first said hello to two people he knew, and saw the strange Chen Chuliang. He also said enthusiastically: "My name is John, it's nice to meet you..... you're coming to Momiji Town for the first time." ”

Chen Chuliang communicated with him in English, and at the same time introduced his name and said, "It's a pleasure to meet." ”

Not much politeness, after getting in the car, John was really frizzy, drove the Ford Raptor as a tractor, and drove all the way to the farm.

In about half an hour, we arrived at John's farm.

The farm is huge. Situated on the edge of a river that flows to the shores of Lake Ontario, Canada. There are large fields of vegetables and fruits grown in it. In the distance, on the riverside meadow that flows to the shore of Lake Ontario, herds of cattle and sheep are leisurely eating grass, and several special herding dogs are standing by, keeping an eye on the cattle and sheep to prevent them from leaving. In the distance, there are large fields of wheat and sunflowers, and even the air smells of earth and grass.

Mr. and Mrs. York are an old couple in their fifties. Seeing Chen's mother and Zhao Xiaoya and the strange Chen Chuliang, they also warmly welcomed their arrival.

Daddy York is going to catch two cows and sheep to be slaughtered, and then save the best part for Chen's mother. When his son John came back, Daddy called him, it should be that there were not enough people, so Daddy York looked directly at Chen Chuliang and said, "Just a strong laborer, young man, how about we go to set cattle and sheep together?"

Chen Chuliang saw the York father and son put the tools on the birds of prey, the cattle and sheep on this side are open, let them grow freely, this kind of meat is the most delicious, but he wants to experience the life of the North American farm, nodded and said: "Okay!"

Seeing her son join Daddy York's father and son, Chen's mother was worried that Chen Chuliang wouldn't get hurt, after all, setting cattle and sheep is a technical job, and advised: "Just follow Daddy York, don't take risks yourself, just watch from the side, and take a hand if you can." If you can't help, don't be reckless, children are hairy. ”

Chen's mother's words were all in a caring tone, which made Chen Chuliang feel very warm.

Children with mothers are the happiest, no matter what they do, there are reminders to pay attention to safety.

Zhao Xiaoya was also not at ease, and Chen Chu also said: "Those cattle and sheep are very wild, pay attention to safety." ”

Under the advice of the two closest people, Chen Chuliang said: "Don't worry. Am I the kind of person who does dangerous things? ”

John, these young men enthusiastically patted Chen Chuliang's shoulder and said to Chen's mother and Zhao Xiaoya: "With me here, I won't let Brother Chen suffer." ”

The group boarded the Ford Raptor and set off for the river. And Chen's mother and Zhao Xiaoya, as well as York's father's wife, Kexia, are holding baskets and preparing to pick vegetables and fruits.

……..

The cattle and sheep on this open side are really wild, even if there are sheepdogs chasing them, and there are the superb flying skills of Father and Son York. It took more than two hours to select the fattest two from more than 3,000 cattle and sheep, and then threw them off the fly sleeve, and then rushed to the Ford Raptor car.

When they came back, Chen's mother and Zhao Xiaoya, who went to the vegetable garden and melon orchard to pick vegetables, had already returned.

Father and son of York were about to send the cattle and sheep to the slaughterhouse, Chen Chuliang got out of the car, and Chen's mother asked him, "Do you feel very happy?"

She brought her son over just to let him experience the original farm life.

I was really happy when I was raking cattle and sheep by the river just now, but I was following behind Daddy York. Enjoying the leisurely life of a North American farmer, Chen Chuliang said: "Daddy York's farm has more than 30,000 acres, more than 3,000 cattle and sheep, and more than 3,000 acres of wheat, more than 500 acres of sunflowers, and flaxseeds are planted in the plains in the distance. It's like a big granary. It's been a long time since I've been so happy, and if it weren't for the fact that there are still many things to do in China, I really want to stay here for a while longer. ”

As long as Chen Chuliang is happy, Chen's mother will follow him in everything, and said with a smile: "Then tomorrow we will come over again and go to the sunflower garden." ”

Chen Chuliang nodded and agreed, it could be seen that his mother liked this kind of life in the farm very much, and the smile on her face was much happier, he had heard his father say that there were many farms on the shore of Lake Ontario that as long as there was money, he could buy them. Chen Chuliang pondered that if he didn't buy a big farm here, hire a group of people to help him run it, and come here every year to stay for a month, it would be regarded as a vacation for himself.

After a little more waiting, Father and Son York returned from the slaughterhouse.

They also brought back the freshest and fattest beef and lamb tenderloin and beef and lamb chops.

The food picked in the melon orchard and vegetable garden is already packed in baskets. Daddy York packed the beef and mutton again, put it in the Ford Raptor car, and asked his son John to send Chen's mother back to Red Leaf Town.

waved goodbye to Daddy York's wife, not to mention, the North Americans on this side are all hospitable, and because of acquaintances, they don't even charge money.

When I returned to Momiji Town, it was past six o'clock in the afternoon.

Chen's mother began to carefully select some of the food she brought back from the farm, and put the rest in the refrigerator.

Zhao Xiaoya helped her, and the two women were busy working together in the kitchen.

Wait until the fragrant black pepper steak, a large pot of hand-grilled lamb, and a few sautéed seasonal vegetables are served.

A sumptuous dinner is ready.

Chen's mother beckoned Zhao Xiao and Chen Chuliang to come over for dinner.

After being served, a bottle of Papa York's own wine was brought from the farm. It was rare to see Chen's mother, who was drinking, handing the wine bottle to Chen Chuliang. "Son, pour me and Xiaoya a glass and taste the wine made from this pure North American farm grape. ”

"Son?"

The sudden salutation made Zhao Xiaoya, who was about to serve the washed fruit on the side, pause. Surprised, he asked, "Auntie's son is you?"

Didn't the aunt say that her son was going to see her soon?

Is her son here now?

Zhao Xiaoya seemed to look at Lao Chen with a very surprised look.

It can't be him, right?

Lao Chen is the son of an aunt?

Then I'.....

That...... My aunt introduced her son to me???

Zhao Xiaoya has a feeling of being 'pitted'.

Of course, there is also an embarrassment of those who wish to take the bait.

Now that my mother has confessed, Chen Chuliang also nodded and said, "We only met today, and my mother and I have been separated for 20 years. ”

Listening to Lao Chen's words, Zhao Xiaoya felt very sad.

It took 20 years of separation to meet, no wonder she never saw her aunt, husband and children come to see her.

At the moment, regardless of whether she jumped into the pit or not, Zhao Xiaoya said happily: "Then I want to drink two cups and wish Auntie the reunion of mother and son today." ”

Chen's mother smiled happily and said, "It should be a blessing to our family." ”

Zhao Xiaoya's face was red.

She said in front of Chen's mother that she was Chen Chuliang's girlfriend, is she going to jump out and regret it now?

It was also silently recognized.

At this time, Chen Chuliang was very good at harmonizing the atmosphere, poured everyone a glass of wine made by Daddy York, raised his glass and said: "We are a family that loves each other....."
