Chapter 144: Family Friction

Previous Chapter

Early in the morning of the second day, as soon as the sky dawned, Jiang Xiaolin woke up. The past few months of army life have left a habit, and I will wake up naturally at the time of almost the time to get up.

kissed his son who was leaning against the wall and was sleeping, this kid felt harassed in his sleep, and waved his chubby little fist at his own mother, and it seemed that he would have to sleep for a while before he woke up. Jiang Xiaolin got out of bed lightly, so as not to affect Yu Ying, who was still sleeping. The closer he got to the college entrance examination, the more nervous the child became, and he heard that he hadn't even come out of the house in the past few days, and he was trying his best to prepare for the exam.

Jiang Xiaolin knew that in the face of such a turning point in her life, it was useless to persuade her to relax, and she had to rely on herself to get through.

Before the family got up, Jiang Xiaolin went to the kitchen to light a fire, boiled a pot of cornmeal porridge, set up a steamer above the cauldron, and heated the steamed buns. Then beat a few eggs and prepare to fry them in the pot with leeks.

She was cooking breakfast for the whole family, thinking about her husband who was training in the field, counting the days, this five-day and four-night training should be over.

The battalion led by Yu Zhenye is an absolute perseverance training every time he exercises, and the soldiers will not come back with peace of mind if they don't toss off a layer of skin for a few days, and Yu Zhenye has always been a leader who takes the lead and leads by example.

If she was in the army, she would definitely have to make something delicious to make up for him, but unfortunately she couldn't wait for him to come back at home this time. And when Yu Zhenye returned home and saw the telegrams and letters she left, I didn't know how anxious she would be.

At that time, she didn't know what was going on at home, and the letter she left was only a few sentences, which was probably even more reassuring to read. She pondered that today or tomorrow she would go to the town's post office and call the troops, at least so that he could be reassured.

The matter at home should also be resolved as soon as possible.

Originally, the two families were good, and the relationship between the older generations has always been good, and the children are also interested in each other, so they will think of getting married. We must not ruin our friendship because of a little friction. Besides, this is still Jiang Xiaolin's mother-in-law and mother's family, and she can't let anyone or anything ruin the relationship between Zhou Yu's two families.

"Xiaolin, got up so early?"

Huang Cuilan hurriedly walked into the kitchen, she usually gets up at this time to cook, but today I saw that the eldest daughter-in-law was almost ready.

"Well, get up, the water is boiling, Mom, brush your teeth and wash your face first. ”

"Huh. ”

Huang Cuilan simply cleaned herself up in a few clicks, and hurriedly went into the kitchen to help Jiang Xiaolin.

"You young people sleep a lot, why don't you sleep more, just make this breakfast. ”

"In the army there is a wake-up number, I am used to it. Jiang Xiaolin lifted the pot and took out the hot steamed bun and handed it to her mother-in-law, "Mom, be careful of scalding." ”

Huang Cuilan took it and said, "Yes, when I was in the army, I was also woken up by them every day...... Xiaolin, I'll just do this, you can see what to do for Congcong, he is so big that he can take some food, and he is easy to get hungry just by feeding. ”

"Well, I'm going to steam an egg custard for him, but he's still asleep, so there's no hurry. ”

"It's good to sleep more, children can grow up by sleeping more, but you and Zhenye are not short, and my eldest grandson will not be short in the future. Huang Cuilan said happily.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were cooking, talking and laughing, and they got along very happily. The two of them were quick with their hands and feet, and soon, breakfast was ready, and Congcong's egg custard was also out of the pot, the color was tender yellow, delicate and soft, and it looked very attractive.

At this time, a loud cry sounded, followed by Yu Ying's shout: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, Cong Cong is awake!"

Huang Cuilan sighed and ran out of the kitchen, which was faster than Jiang Xiaolin's.

"My eldest grandson is awake, grandma is coming to hug him......"

Jiang Xiaolin smiled and followed.

As the saying goes: the old son, the eldest grandson, the lifeblood of the old lady. Although she is not an old lady, Huang Cuilan's love for Cong Cong is very obvious, looking at Cong Cong's freshly washed white little face, she likes it very much, and she is reluctant to let go when she holds it in her arms, no matter how she kisses, she can't kiss enough.

kissed the eldest grandson's little face again, Huang Cuilan hugged Congcong and said, "Let's go, grandma will take you to eat egg custard, mother has just steamed it, do we like Congcong or not?"

Of course, Cong Cong couldn't understand his grandmother's words, just giggling twice, which had already made Huang Cuilan very happy, and the two of them laughed very happily together.

But when Jiang Xiaolin followed Huang Cuilan into the kitchen, she saw her second brother and sister Wang Chunmei sitting on a stool, and Yu Zhenrong squatting beside her, holding a bowl and feeding her egg custard spoonful by spoonful.

Huang Cuilan was also stunned when she saw the scene in front of her, not only because of her grandson's egg custard, but also because of her son's groveling appearance of serving women, which made her really unaccustomed to it.

"Mom, sister-in-law, you're here. Wang Chunmei saw them and greeted them warmly: "This breakfast is made by my sister-in-law, it's hard sister-in-law, this egg custard is steamed well, it's very tender, but the taste is not well adjusted, there is no salty taste, and it is delicious with some soy sauce." ”

Jiang Xiaolin pulled the corners of her mouth, she was steaming for her son, not for her. Of course, children who are a few months old should eat as little oil and salt as possible, so as not to cause too much burden on the body.

She won't be as knowledgeable as this concubine who has a lot of right and wrong and is shallow-eyed, but of course she will be unhappy that the rations she prepared for her son were snatched away like this.

But before Jiang Xiaolin could speak, Huang Cuilan couldn't suppress her anger at first, and said: "Your mouth is fast, who said that this is made for you to eat, and you are still salty, do you think that everyone owes you the same as your old woman, and you have to serve you every day when you open your eyes?"

Wang Chunmei listened to Huang Cuilan's words, and immediately realized that this bowl of egg custard was made for Congcong to eat, and she was ashamed and angry at the moment, and her eyes turned red all of a sudden.

In fact, if she had known earlier, she would definitely not have snatched this bite of eggs from the child. But since she became pregnant, all the delicious food in the house has been close to her, and she has not been allowed to interfere in any work, and she has become accustomed to the life of being able to give priority to choosing her favorite food every time she eats at the table.

"Mom!" Yu Zhenrong stood up, slammed the bowl on the table, and said hurriedly: "Xiaomei is also pregnant with your grandson, what are you talking about?"

"What are you talking about, am I wrong?" Huang Cuilan glared, even if she gave birth to herself, this daughter-in-law fan-like son made her look down on her more and more.

In the end, they didn't want to worry more about pregnant women, Jiang Xiaolin and Yu Ying hurriedly stepped forward to persuade them, and Yu Tielin, the head of the family, also got up to have breakfast, and there was a rush in the kitchen, and this matter passed like this.

Jiang Xiaolin sighed secretly in her heart, her father-in-law was quiet and calm, and her mother-in-law had a straightforward temperament, it was good enough to marry into such a family. Although she can't get along with her second brother and sister, she also advises herself to be a good person, anyway, her home is in the barracks, and there are not many opportunities to live with her concubine in the future, what is unpleasant, at least in the face of her parents-in-law, she will not worry about her pregnant brothers and sisters.

Well, it's better to settle the matter as soon as possible, she can't wait to go home and return to her husband.
