Chapter 100: Someone from My Mother's Family
"Dumplings! Eat dumplings! Lin Zijie also staggered over, and suddenly his feet trembled and he was about to fall, so frightened that his mother rushed to catch it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"What to run! Didn't my mother come over? The eldest cousin-in-law complained but touched her son's head, looked at his body again, and was relieved that he had not fallen to the ground.
"Mother eat!" Lin Zijie was still holding a small piece of osmanthus cake in his hand, and he grinned and stuffed it into his mother's mouth.
"Delicious!" The eldest cousin took a small bite and immediately praised with a smile, and hugged her son.
"Mother, eat dumplings today!" Su Fang heard the little sister's shout and knew that her mother was coming, so she immediately went to the stove and stuffed a fire to burn it, washed her hands and added a scoop of water to the pot, and covered the pot.
"Mother, wait for you to make dumplings, I'm still rolling dough here." Su Fang saw the few people who walked in, and her heart was relieved, it was too late.
"Wait, let's come early in the morning, let's say hello to your mother-in-law first, don't let people think that our family is rude." Su Lin said.
No matter what you say, you have to let Sister-in-law Lin know that her daughter-in-law's maiden family has come.
"Mother, Brother Tianming sent his mother to take a carriage outside the village to the town to find Aunt Chen." Su Fang hurriedly explained, thinking that she was worthy of being a member of her family, and they all cared so much about etiquette.
"How so?" Su Lin was stunned.
"It won't be because we have so many people......" Grandma suddenly thought of a question, a little embarrassed.
"Grandma, don't think about it, although the day is today, but my mother-in-law said that she hasn't been to the door for a long time, and now that her son is married and someone takes care of her, she also wants to go out and walk around."
Su Fang hurriedly comforted her grandmother, but it couldn't be self-defeating.
"My mother-in-law brought a basket of osmanthus cakes, I read it, although it was proposed by Brother Tianming, but she was in a good mood. I didn't expect my mother-in-law to have friends in the town, in the village...... Hehe. ā
Who doesn't know that Aunt Lin was ostracized by women in the village, and no one wanted to pay attention to her at all, and there were people who gossiped about her to her face, but she always faced it indifferently, smiled, and never argued.
But in the past 20 years, I really haven't seen Aunt Lin visit anyone's house, and of course no one has visited her door. Even her mother's brother closed the door and refused to let her in, where else could she go?
She lives alone with her young son, and she suffers a lot of criticism, and she doesn't think she will have anything to do with anyone in the village.
But in the town, she did needlework for money, and made friends with the proprietress of the embroidery house, so you can fully understand her friendly and close feelings.
Making friends is everyone's right.
Su Lin also felt a little emotional when he heard it, and when he saw that his grandmother was puzzled, he talked about Aunt Lin's past, and her grandmother knew that Lin Tianming's family background was so pitiful, and she couldn't help but feel distressed.
"In the future, Tianming has so many relatives in our family, he won't be alone, Fang'er, although your uncles don't have themselves, they have the strength, and they can send a message when they need to work."
"Got it, Grandma." Su Fang smiled gratefully, thinking that this was really the style of her grandmother's family, affectionate and righteous, so her mother was also such a character.
Speaking of it, it's still my father's luck, if I marry a woman like the Yuan family like my uncle, it's really ...... Even if he is unlucky, he will also be accused and gossiped about by his children and grandchildren.
After saying that, Su Lin and his grandmother were calm and immediately helped make dumplings.
"Mother, why haven't they come yet? Brother, they didn't arrive either. Su Fang glanced outside the kitchen several times, and the sky was bright.
"Yesterday, your grandfather wanted to call your father to help cut rice, but your father didn't want your uncle to help, and it just so happened that our family still had some things to do, so I asked your uncle and them to go, and your father and eldest brother went to the big house."
"Hmph, do they have breakfast for my dad and eldest brother, I really doubt it." Su Fang was immediately unhappy when she heard this.
Yesterday, my grandfather looked quite responsible, but when he turned around, he had the idea of taking advantage of it. It's because I saw that they had a lot of people in the second room and worked fast, so I wanted to take advantage of my uncles.
"I told your father, don't go even if you let him have breakfast, don't get bored and quarrel again. I will come here to eat for half an hour, and I will cut rice for you in the morning, and then I will go back to the fields over there after lunch, and go home to eat in the evening. ā
"Mother, I also eat here at night, how hard it is to cook when I go home after a tired day, and I go back and rest directly after eating, how good." Su Fang said immediately.
"You, you can be more leisurely when you just enter the door, you always want to move to your mother's house, don't dislike your mother-in-law." Su Lin shook his head helplessly.
"Mother, don't worry, my husband, he likes me the most, so my mother-in-law likes me too." Su Fang smiled and said that she didn't care, only she knew how weird this mother-in-law was.
"Cheeky!" Su Lin was amused by his daughter and scolded angrily.
There was a lot of laughter in the kitchen.
Soon the first pot of soup dumplings was cooked, and Su Fang opened the big cupboard and took out a stack of big rice bowls, not the kind that is eaten on weekdays, the bigger one is used to eat noodles.
The children who had been waiting suddenly became excited.
"Changning hurry up and take the little ones to the hall, Zeen and Zeyuan, you come to serve dumplings." Su Fang put four bowls on each of the two trays and handed them to thirteen-year-old Lin Zeen and eleven-year-old Lin Zeyuan.
"Grandma, you go eat too, by the way, keep an eye on them, don't burn it." After Lin Zeen ran again, Su Fang asked her grandmother to go to the hall as well.
The morning light from outside came in, and although the hall was not particularly bright, there was no need to light it. The oil lamp was also blown in the kitchen, and the back door was opened to let in light and ventilation, and the fragrance of dumplings was blown away by the wind.
Su Fang began to spread the osmanthus cake again, she was worried that the dumplings would not be enough, and there were still cakes.
However, after such a large pot of minced meat was wrapped, it could not be placed on the desk, and many raw dumplings were placed in the floured pan, which were set aside on a stool.
Good thing the new kitchen was clean and there were no mosquitoes flying around.
Just when Su Fang was anxious about how his uncle and cousin hadn't come yet, he saw Lin Tianming walking in front, and several uncles and cousins were talking and laughing.
"I met my uncle and cousin on the road, why haven't my father and eldest brother come over yet?" Lin Tianming entered the kitchen and put down the vegetables he bought at the entrance of the village, and asked Su Fang strangely.
"Didn't my father and eldest brother go to help my uncle's family work, I'm worried that they won't be embarrassed to leave, and they won't let them go." Su Fang pursed her lips and was a little unhappy.
"I'll call someone later." When Su Lin saw them coming back, he hurriedly ordered the second pot of dumplings, and when he saw that his daughter and son-in-law were worried and realized the problem, he was ready to go to the field to call people.
"Mother, let Changning go." Su Fang hurriedly stopped her mother, the problem of her mother going can be big or small, and it is appropriate for Changning to go.
Su Changning came in response, and he had just finished eating the dumplings and was hesitating whether to add more, when he heard his sister shouting.
"You go and call your father and eldest brother to come back for breakfast first, remember to ask grandpa ......"
