Chapter 21: Eccentric Eye
The second aunt sighed, her face was embarrassed and helpless, and it seemed that she was really doing it for this family.
For a while, everyone who was eating in the kitchen looked at her.
But Su Ru was very calm, as if she hadn't seen it, she picked up the tuba bowl in her hand and drank the 'gruel' in one gulp.
"There is only one quail, there are more than a dozen babies in our family, and we can't share much. Zhang Xinghua saw that she obviously didn't want to let the quail out, and even her youngest son's mouth was too high, so she looked at the second sister-in-law lightly and said, "Second sister-in-law, there are many wild things in the forest, Yaya and her brother drilled in the forest all morning to find such a quail back, they themselves are not enough to eat, how can they take it out and share it with others?"
"Brother and sister, of course I, as an elder, didn't want to eat what they found with these little dolls, but you see, the Yaya sister and brother found the quail, and the children in the family are also hungry for meat. ”
The second aunt said with a smile, but there was obviously something wrong with this tone.
Su Ru also knew that if she hadn't met the group of little dolls of the Feng family, the quail would definitely have to be kept for her family to eat, but this quail was known to the family, so it was absolutely impossible for her and her younger brother to monopolize the quail.
Now this big family is in a mess and hasn't been separated, and there is only such a kitchen.
Even if you want to eat alone, it's absolutely impossible.
Unless the mother can be as cheeky as the old lady and open a small stove openly.
But with her mother's temperament, she would never be able to do such a tasteless thing, plus she is also a child who loves her, and it is not easy to see her skinny nephews and nieces looking at her.
Su Ru's conflicting thoughts about her mother at this time can be described as clear.
Seeing her looking at herself in embarrassment, she sighed helplessly and said lightly, "Okay, let's eat together." ”
The old lady's eyes lit up, and she was about to speak, when Su Ru glanced at her and said, "But we can only eat it for our children, so don't rob us adults." ”
The words that the old lady was about to blurt out suddenly held back in her throat, staring at her with wide eyes, obviously angry.
But even if she is shameless, she still wants to save face, Su Ru said so, if she asks for meat again, I am afraid that the daughters-in-law will have opinions on her.
After all, a quail is really not big, there are so many children present, and one person has a small bite of meat at most, how can it be the turn of an adult?
Su Ru was relieved, but Zhang Xinghua secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was really afraid that these two children would be very protective of food, and if they cried, they would make people laugh.
Fortunately, her daughter is just a quail, and there is nothing remarkable about it, there is no need to calculate for this bit of meat like some people!
Brother Su's mouth was pursed, his face was full of unhappiness, knowing that his quail meat would have to be distributed to others, and he almost burst into tears.
Su Wenfei patted his head and whispered a few words in his ear, and the little kid showed a smile.
"Sister Ru, thank you. ”
Unlike the two rude twins of the second uncle's family, the children of the fourth and fifth uncle's families immediately smiled when they knew that there was meat to eat again today, and of course, they did not forget to thank Su Ru and Su Xiaodi obediently.
Several of her younger cousins were skinny, typically malnourished, and even a sip of broth was enough to get them excited for a long time.
"Sister Ru, next time you go to the woods, can you take me with you?"
Su Wenchuan, the little cousin of the fourth uncle's family, led his three-year-old sister to stand beside her, looking at her expectantly with a pair of big black eyes.
The clothes he wore were torn with several holes, his cheeks were sunken, his mouth was white and his hair was dry, and he was pitifully thin.
Look at the nine-year-old twins of the second uncle's family, although they are not white and fat, but they have ruddy complexions and fair and delicate skin, which obviously has nothing to do with malnutrition.
Obviously, they all eat in the same pot, and the food and the amount of food are the same, but they have developed two extremes.
If the second uncle's family did not open a small stove, it is estimated that other people in the family would not believe it.
"Eat these at noon, how can you work in the afternoon?" The old man drank two bowls of 'gruel' slowly, and regardless of the competition between his children and grandchildren over a quail just now, he just kicked the old lady, "Go, boil some potatoes and eat them separately, well, just cook them in quail soup." ”
As soon as the old lady heard the old man's words, she immediately called her eldest daughter-in-law to get quail and potatoes.
Zhang Xinghua also went back to bring the quails.
The small one was not the size of a palm, but it was just such a little bit of meat, but it attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
Brother Su flattened his mouth and wanted to cry.
Su Wenfei rubbed his face, secretly complaining about his grandfather's partiality.
The second uncle is the accountant of the brigade, and the second aunt is a scorekeeper, and the good things he gets on weekdays are all taken by himself, and he never thought of taking them out and distributing them to other people in the family.
The children of the second uncle's family are the healthiest in the family, and anyone with a discerning eye can see the difference in the treatment of the old lady in their room.
Otherwise, why did he have to take out the quails he found at home and share them with everyone, while the second uncle could keep the things they got for himself?
Su Wenfei is not a fool, and he has long seen that the distribution system in this family is not as fair as it seems.
Although grandpa often talks about the family to live together, he is absolutely partial to the second uncle's family, otherwise the second uncle would not have been able to sit in the position of accountant in the team, and the second aunt would not be qualified to be a scorekeeper.
The quail incident this time also made Su Wenfei see clearly what kind of virtuous people their second uncle and second aunt were.
Even the things that a child made out have to be remembered, this couple is really not as harmless as it seems!
Su Ru didn't know that because of this quail, her eldest brother had a gap between her second uncle's family, otherwise even if this quail was given to the second uncle's family, she would feel that it was particularly valuable!
Coupled with the later potato and quail soup, Su Ru was half-full.
After eating, they went back to their respective homes.
Zhang Xinghua came back with a gloomy face after helping to wash the dishes in the kitchen, and when she entered the house, she saw her man making her youngest son laugh, and her face looked a little better.
However, she was still aggrieved in her heart, and couldn't help but say, "Second brother, they usually calculate and we forget it, but now even the children are calculated, and they have to fight for a mouthful of meat, I don't know if I think he hasn't eaten meat on weekdays! Not most of the two catties of meat that the old man sends every month have entered their stomachs, I really think everyone doesn't know!"
