Chapter 242: Parents' Opinion
Mei Qiuping and Huang Jingping are cooking in the kitchen, but Feng Yiping knows that of course this is not just cooking, Mei Qiuping will definitely take this opportunity to investigate the girl Feng Yiping likes, such as her cooking level.
In the past, there was a name for his daughter-in-law in his hometown, "in the door", which was similar to the old society, when some people introduced their wives to others, they would say "cheap" is almost the same meaning.
Maybe women in the new era will be very unhappy with such a title, but, at least in Mei Qiuping's hearts, a qualified daughter-in-law, everything in a family, must be able to afford to let go, even if they rely on Feng Yiping again, if Feng Yiping finds a girl who doesn't know anything about housework, they will definitely talk to their son.
However, Huang Jingping, as the eldest of the two daughters in the family, is also proficient in kitchen matters, especially when cutting vegetables, the knife work, Mei Qiuping knew at a glance that this little girl, when she was at home, helped to work, she was very satisfied.
At this time, Huang Jingping is teaching her how to use the oven, and they plan to grill a fish in the evening.
There was no sun outside, and Feng Yiping and his father were playing chess in the study.
He remembers that when he was a child, his father still had the time and mood to play chess with Feng Weidong and Feng Jiasheng, and for this reason, he specially made a chess box out of wood, which contained chess, and when opened, it could be put together into a chessboard.
In the summer, when the wind is cooling, sometimes the interest comes, and he will shake his head and pull the erhu, what kind of song is played, Feng Yiping can't remember it now, but he remembers that the family was very happy at that time.
It's just that Feng Yiping has always been far away from the erhu, because it is covered with snake skin.
Later, when Dad was free, it was as if he would only sit on a chair and smoke, and even if he sat there, it made people feel like a mountain was pressing on his head, and he couldn't get up. At most, during the Spring Festival, when basking in the sun on the hills, I played cards with some old brothers and didn't play money. Winning or losing is just a few cigarettes.
As for chess and erhu, gradually, I couldn't even find it.
Mom is the same, I used to like to watch movies, during the first month. At that time, Toyama Township, which had not been withdrawn and merged, would show movies in the warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative, and she would also be ruthless and spend a few cents to buy a ticket, but she must have brought her sister and herself in, and several times because of whether her sister wanted to buy a ticket, and those who guarded the door to check the ticket quarreled.
On weekdays, it is a village several miles away, because of the happy occasion to play open-air movies. She would also take her sister and herself, walk at night to see, at that time a family only needed a flashlight, and that is, when the road was not good, many times, everyone was tied with a torch, there was no open flame, with the light of charcoal fire on the road.
When she got to the place, sometimes she couldn't borrow a stool in the village where the movie was shown, so she kept standing and watching. Most of them are holding themselves, and the other hand is holding their sister.
Every time I go back to my grandfather's house, if I get a magazine, I go to bed every day. She would also read to herself and her sister under the dim oil lamp.
Later, these were all idle and leisurely, and she gave them up, and the only entertainment was to finish every day. After dinner, watching TV, in order to save electricity bills, often even reluctant to turn on the lights.
Speaking of which, at that time, my mother was less than forty years old, and my father was not yet fifty years old, and since then, they have been worried about money, no time, no energy, and no mood to do other things, all hobbies have been lost.
That is, from then on, their life is not called life, but only survival.
It wasn't until Feng Yiping finally mixed up and took them to his side that the situation changed, but at that time, they couldn't pick up the hobbies they used to have.
Therefore, now that I heard that my father still has time to practice calligraphy, and seeing him pick up chess again, Feng Yiping is really happy and relieved, he can make his parents' life called days, and he, as a son, can do anything.
He had been thinking about these things, so much so that he didn't hear Feng Zhenchang asking him, "It's time for you to go,"
"Oh," Feng Yi calmed down, "I was thinking about something just now,"
"How is studying?" Feng Zhenchang asked, "I see that few of the books on your bookshelf are textbooks,"
"Dad, it's different now than before, not only the courses of mathematics, physics and chemistry, but also professional courses and general education courses, you have to read a lot of books that are not textbooks, you see, the pile on the cabinet is the book list that the teacher gave us this month,"
Feng Zhenchang glanced at those tomes with some awe, "That's good, since it's a book that the teacher taught you to read, it's not an extracurricular book, you must read it carefully." "Since Feng Yiping was in the fifth grade of primary school, they have not been able to tutor him in his homework, just one principle, what the teacher called, must do it well.
"Yes, I know. ”
"You're doing well?" he asked, a more general question.
"Yes, Jingping, you have also been in contact with her, she is a girl with a good personality, she depends on me in everything, she always thinks of me in front, and we have a good life. ”
"Then it's a good life, you have a good eye, Jingping, this girl, is a good boy, and she is also a master who can run a family.
In the past two years, her parents are not so troubled people, and if they are many other people, it is estimated that they have already found the door of the family, her parents are good, I heard that when you asked Jingping to give money to the family before, her parents should not be it, this is rare, so that you can live a worry-free life in the future.
However, you have to know how to be a person, doesn't she have a younger sister, it's not easy to provide for a college student now, and when she goes to college, the tuition will be paid by you. ”
"I remember, Dad,"
"It stands to reason that you are still studying, maybe you will have to study for a master's degree in the future, or study abroad, your mother and I both think that these things are not good to mention too early, but, since you and Jingping are getting along so well now, then I will ask you an attitude, although many young people are like this now, but you live together like this, it's not a thing, is it not a matter to take advantage of her parents to come this time, our two families have talked about it, and after getting married, let's set this in advance? Otherwise, when we deal with each other in the future, we don't know how to get along with his parents. ”
Thinking of Zhang Yan, Feng Yiping felt that this would be half a flame and half seawater, but this matter had come to this point naturally, of course, there must be a clear attitude, "I have no opinion,"
"That's okay, I understand," Feng Zhenchang looked at his son's somewhat serious expression, thinking that he didn't want to settle down so early, "Don't look at the mountain and look at the mountain, always think that you will meet a better one later, the right one is the best, besides, it's good to settle down early, so that you will have a burden, and when you do things, you will think more thanks, and be more stable." ”
"Yes, I know," Feng Yiping would dare to say, "Dad, I still want to find one," Feng Zhenchang would definitely pick up his slippers and whip him.
Soon after the lights came on, Mei Qiuping shouted downstairs, "The two lazy ones upstairs, the meal is ready, come down to eat,"
The evening dishes were of course hearty and homely.
Toon fried an egg cake, boiled bamboo shoots, fried in oil, the taste is beautiful, and the bacon brought to fry garlic moss, a chicken stewed soup, and a roasted grass carp sprinkled with onions and enoki mushrooms, plus a plate of peanuts that are also brought by the family, and a meat foam tofu.
Feng Yiping smelled the smell and said, "It's still the fragrance of my mother's fried vegetables,"
"I didn't fry a few, they were all made by Jingping, she was better than me,"
"What's the matter, it's still my aunt's craftsmanship,"
Although it looks like Huang Jingping and her mother were quite polite before, this start is good.
Of course, the dish must be paired with wine, Feng Zhenchang shook his head when he saw Feng Yiping bring red wine, "I can't drink this, there is no white wine?"
Of course, Feng Yiping specially bought a few bottles of Moutai and drank a small cup with his father, which means it, fortunately, Feng Zhenchang has really changed a lot of habits now, and he is not as greedy as before.
Mei Qiuping and Huang Jingping drank heated corn juice, "Don't talk about the rest, this oven, when it is decorated, you must install one, listen to Jingping, with this, you can make a lot of dishes." ”
As a housewife, Mei Qiuping still cares about these things in the kitchen.
"Load, do you want to install one in the dishwasher?" Now is not the time to worry about buying a TV, Feng Zhenchang is very happy.
"Dad, Mom, where do you want to go to play tomorrow?" Feng Yiping asked.
"It's good for you to be busy with yours, you can't miss class, where you should go, we all went there last year, let Jingping take us to the company to see, and then go around casually, and when her parents come the day after tomorrow, we will go out together." ”
"Okay, uncle and aunt, there are actually many places in the capital that we haven't visited, I bought a few travel guides, and we can take a good look at them later." ”
Feng Zhenchang said to go around casually, Huang Jingping, who wanted to perform well, didn't dare to be casual. (To be continued.) )
