Zhu Xiuzhi was still blaming Pan Yang for not informing them of the second and third rooms, and Pan Zhulin muttered, "Zhulin, it's not that the second sister-in-law doesn't want to see you coming, it's completely unaware, and the eldest brother doesn't notify us, as if we are afraid that you will come to visit relatives." ”

Pan Zhulin knew a little about her second sister-in-law, and said with a smile, "I asked the eldest brother not to inform you, and the three of us will have a cheeky meal at the eldest brother's house." If you inform the second sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law has always been a warm and good guest, what if the second sister-in-law pulls me to your house for dinner? The second sister-in-law's family also has a large population, wouldn't it be a burden for you to go to your house for dinner if the three of us went to your house for dinner? ”

Pan Zhulin is very much like her mother, always smiling, not offending people, who treats her well, she understands clearly in her heart, but she doesn't say it directly, it is just a needle hidden in the cotton, and you can understand it in a roundabout way.

Sure enough, Zhu Xiuzhi heard this and said with a sneer, "Second sister-in-law can't wait for you to go to my house for dinner, how can I think you are burdensome." ”

Pan Zhulin smiled, squatted down and carried the fish, and said, "Originally, the eldest sister-in-law was not at home, and I was embarrassed to bother the eldest brother, since the second sister-in-law said so, I am not welcome, and the three of us will go to the second sister-in-law's house for lunch." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Xiuzhi's face changed, and she hurriedly grabbed the fish in Pan Zhulin's hand, and said with a smile on her face, "The fish are all killed, it will be more troublesome to change places, it doesn't matter if my sister-in-law is not at home, I will take charge of the spoon at noon, Guangmei will help me, and we will eat at my sister-in-law's house." ”

After speaking, she raised her elbow and crutched Meng Guangmei, and said, "Guangmei, did you say?" ”

Meng Guangmei simply accepted Zhu Xiuzhi's skinless and faceless, and didn't sing and drink with her, but said, "It's rare to come back to the bamboo forest, we can eat together and be lively, but there are too many people in a big family, and we can't all eat the food of my sister-in-law's house." In my opinion, second sister-in-law, let's go back and bring some rice noodles over, and the vegetables and meat will be blessed by the bamboo forest, so you don't need to take it, you should always take some rice noodles, right? ”

Meng Guangmei lost her father and mother when she was a child, and grew up with her uncle, who was a teacher who educated her very well, was reasonable and reasonable, and was the most respected elder by Pan Yang among Zhang Xuelan and their concubines.

Seeing that Meng Guangmei didn't follow her, Zhu Xiuzhi stretched her face and said angrily, "Sister-in-law's family can still lack rice noodles for us to eat a meal?" ”

Meng Guangmei couldn't do such an unkind thing, she got up and said, "Forget it, I don't care about you, I'll go back and bring a few mouthfuls of rice noodles from my family, you can do whatever you want." ”

After speaking, Meng Guangmei smiled at Pan Zhulin and went back to carry things.

Zhu Xiuzhi didn't react, and decided to pretend that she didn't know anything, and just wait for the meal to be ready and go back and call a few children in her family to come over and eat, if you don't eat for nothing, you won't eat!

Pan Zhulin is a relative in the end, it's hard to say much, I really can't stand Zhu Xiuzhi's appearance, scooped water and washed my hands, and said to Zhu Xiuzhi, "The second sister-in-law washed the fish, and then washed the piece of meat on the stone slab, and I went to cut some cabbage." ”

What Pan Zhulin can do now is only to take care of the things of the eldest sister-in-law's family as much as possible, if she lets the second sister-in-law do everything, Pan Zhulin dares to guarantee that she will pick the best and the most for Huo Huo.

A few minutes later, Meng Guangmei came back again, in addition to a scoop of noodles in her hand, she also carried home-grown radishes and potatoes.

Seeing this, Pan Yang hurriedly said, "It's okay to eat one piece at noon, why did you go back and bring things over?" There is enough food at home, so bring it back quickly. ”

Meng Guangmei pointed out, "There are five people in my family, if the eldest brother doesn't let me bring some rice and noodles, we won't dare to eat at your house at noon." ”

After speaking, Meng Guangmei looked at Zhu Xiuzhi and found that the other party was deaf, but he didn't take any action, so he secretly spat in his heart and went to the kitchen with a noodle ladle to help with the noodles.

In the kitchen, Meng Guangmei and Pan Zhulin were cutting vegetables and stir-frying, and the other was rolling noodles, Zhu Xiuzhi came in with the washed fish and meat, and saw that Meng Guangmei was rolling coarse grain noodles, pouting and saying, "Anyway, Zhulin came back today, why are you still entertaining with coarse noodles?" At least make a pot of steamed buns with fine noodles. ”

Meng Guangmei didn't raise her eyelids, and didn't bother to pay attention to her.

Pan Zhulin lowered his head to chop vegetables, and he didn't hear what he was doing.

None of the two responded to Zhu Xiuzhi's words, she was bored, put the fish on the table, and was about to take the kitchen knife in Pan Zhulin's hand, and said in her mouth, "Zhulin, you go to the pot to burn the fire, and the second sister-in-law will show you the second sister-in-law's skills at noon." ”

Pan Zhulin leaned sideways and said with a smile, "Second sister-in-law, let's go and make a fire, I'll just stir-fry." ”

Zhu Xiuzhi had no choice, so she had to sit under the pot and burn the fire, staring at Pan Zhulin stir-frying, and kept muttering in her heart, why did the cabbage put so little meat foam, the potatoes had to be put on a large piece of meat, her son didn't like to eat the fried shredded potatoes, and there was too little oil in the fish, so how could it taste when it was burned

Zhu Xiuzhi saw that Pan Zhulin's fried food was not to her liking, and she was so anxious that she couldn't wait to snatch the spatula from Pan Zhulin's hand, and the meal was spent in Zhu Xiuzhi's broken thoughts.

When all the dishes are fried and put on the table, the steamed buns are ready to eat.

Zhu Xiuzhi couldn't sit still, and when she saw Meng Guangmei sticking the steamed buns into the pot, she hurriedly said, "Guangmei, you come to light the fire, I'll go back and call the children back for dinner." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Meng Guangmei to respond, she got up and walked out quickly, shouting to her son and daughter as she walked, "Shiting, go and call your sister, come to your mother's house for dinner!" ”

There were too many people eating at noon, and the Eight Immortals Table in the hall couldn't sit down at all, Pan Hengchun sat at the top, Pan Zhaoke sisters and brothers, plus Zhu Xiuzhi, Meng Guangmei and Pan Shiyao, a few adults sat down, and as for the children, they all let them squat on the ground with bowls to eat.

At the dinner table, Zhu Xiuzhi was afraid that the vegetables would be snatched up by others, so she kept putting vegetables into her bowl, her son Pan Shiting was standing behind her, Zhu Xiuzhi turned around and handed it to her son, and then told her son to go and give him a few sisters to eat.

Pan Yang saw it in his eyes and was speechless for a while. She was wrong, her grandmother was not the best, and her grandmother was nothing compared to Zhu Xiuzhi.

In the end, Pan Zhaofang couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted to Zhu Xiuzhi with his eyes, "Okay! How much can they eat, and then come and clip when they're done! ”

Zhu Xiuzhi looked uncomfortable, glared at Pan Zhaofang fiercely, and swallowed her anger while everyone was present, thinking that she would settle the account after she went back.

After eating, there were basically scraps left on the table, Zhu Xiuzhi was busy putting the dishes into the vegetable cupboard, seeing that there was still a piece of fish meat left in the fish plate, no one paid attention to the left and right, she hurriedly called Pan Shiting over, stuffed the last piece of fish into Pan Shiting's mouth, and whispered, "Don't talk, eat quickly." ”

Pan Zhulin and Meng Guangmei were two, one brushed the dishes and the other cleaned up the table, and when the qiē was finished, everyone sat under the eaves of the porch and chatted about family life.

While she was talking, Pan Shiting's crying suddenly came from the house, Zhu Xiuzhi was startled, rushed into the hall, and hurriedly asked what happened to her son.

Pan Shiting sobbed and pointed at Pan Shisong, crying, "Mother, little brother, he pushed me and didn't let me eat the snacks my aunt bought." ”

Pan Shisong pursed the corners of his mouth tightly and said, "This is what my aunt bought for Grandpa, you can't eat it, if you eat Grandpa, you won't have to eat it." ”

Melon seeds and peanuts are already expensive, and there are not many in a pack, if Pan Shiting takes the lead in eating them, other children will definitely rush up, you eat a little, I will eat a little, and it will be eaten soon.

Pan Shiting was still crying, and said to Zhu Xiuzhi, "Mother, I just want to eat." ”

Zhu Xiuzhi saw her son crying sadly, glared at Pan Shisong angrily, and said, "My brother wants to eat, you should give him something to eat, and he can't eat much!" ”

After speaking, Zhu Xiuzhi reached out to take the melon seeds and peanuts on the long case, but he didn't want to be let go of Pan Shi, so he took the first step into his arms and said angrily, "I don't have more than one younger brother, this younger brother wants to eat, that younger brother also wants to eat, everyone eats, will eat it!" I don't give it to eat, just leave it for Grandpa! ”

Zhu Xiuzhi sneered, "Leave it to your grandfather?" To put it nicely, when we're all gone, we don't know whose belly we're in. ”

This is where Zhu Xiuzhi is most dissatisfied, every time Pan Zhulin comes over to buy a large bag of things, they don't see a shadow in the second or third room, and they say that it is left for Pan Hengchun to eat, but they don't see it, who knows if the big house is swallowed alone?

Pan Shisong is an upright temper, he can't stand being framed by others, their sisters and brothers never eat what their aunt bought for grandpa, why should she say this about them!

Pan Shisong hugged the oil paper bag, but he didn't give it to Zhu Xiuzhi.

Pan Shiyun originally played with a few of their children, and when she saw her second aunt say this, she also said angrily, "Second aunt, Grandpa eats and lives with us, and you don't support him, why do you care about Grandpa's things." ”

Pan Shiyun's words can be regarded as igniting the fuse and stepping on Zhu Xiuzhi's sore feet. Zhu Xiuzhi didn't care about the old and young, and directly quarreled with Pan Shiyun.

The reason for the quarrel between the old and the young is too sensitive, one is the problem of pushing around the two children, and the other is because of Pan Hengchun's food and accommodation problems.

If it is something else, Pan Yang is good to speak, but she can't speak first for these two things, and if she speaks first, it seems that she is protecting Pan Shisong, and it seems that she is accusing the second and third rooms of not caring for the elderly.

Poor Pan Shisong was so angry that his little face turned red, and he stared at Zhu Xiuzhi with teary eyes.

Pan Hengchun was also helpless, knocked on the cigarette pouch pole, sighed heavily, and said helplessly, "Okay, Xiuzhi, you are such an adult, what do you say when you quarrel with a child!" ”

Saying that, Pan Hengchun said to Pan Shisong, "Shisong is obedient, give all the melon seeds and peanuts to your brother, let him take them home to eat, grandpa doesn't like to eat these things." ”

Pan Shisong trembled with anger, pursed the corners of his mouth, and said stubbornly, "I won't give it." ”

Pan Shiting suddenly rushed over and grabbed the oiled paper bag in Pan Shisong's arms, kept slapping Pan Shisong's arm, and shouted, "Grandpa said to give it to me, give it to me!" ”

Pan Shiting was one year younger than Pan Shisong and nearly a head shorter than him, Pan Shisong was annoyed by him, and kicked Pan Shiting to the ground in three or two strokes.

Zhu Xiuzhi saw that her son had suffered a loss, how could she get by in her heart, she gave Pan Shisong a slap with her hand, and did not forget to snatch the oil paper bag in Pan Shisong's arms, handed it to her son, and coaxed in her mouth, "Okay Shiting, let's stop crying, my mother brought it to you, hold it quickly." ”
