Xu Ying cuts potatoes.

She cut the potatoes very thickly, unlike the usual ones she cut thinly.

Mom said that my brother was always talking about her shredded potatoes.

In fact, what my brother is talking about is not her shredded potatoes, but a memory.

At that time, my grandmother had just died, and my mother was sick and hospitalized, saying that it was caused by eating food that had been eaten by mice.

Dad takes care of Mom in the hospital, and she and Grandpa have two younger brothers at home.

Grandpa can't cook, and his two younger brothers can't either, so she has to do it.

But she wouldn't.

She remembered the first time she cooked porridge, it wasn't porridge, it was gnocchi soup.

The first time she fried potatoes, she didn't know how to shred the potatoes, and they were indeed thicker than her fingers.

She didn't know the heat of the stir-fry, and when it was too big, the potatoes were about to be crushed.

Whether it's oil or salt, she doesn't know how much to put it.

Cooking was like a war, crackling, and that's how she came over for more than a week.

The younger brother mainly thinks about the feeling of being together and relying on each other in those days.

Xu Ying felt that her eyes were a little wet, and what she had lost in her previous life was not only Liu Mingda, but also her family affection.

In this life, she will love her lover and her family well.

"Yingzi, is this what you fry?"

Looking at the plate of shredded potatoes on the table, Liu Mingda couldn't believe it, could this be his daughter-in-law's craft? It seems that it is inferior to his own.

"Oh, no. I think it's pretty good. ”

Xu Ying laughed after speaking, she didn't know it before, the real hype was like this, but now it's imitation before, and it's quite embarrassing for her.

"It's delicious."

Xu Wei first pinched a pair of chopsticks, and then nodded, this is the taste, a little salty, the potatoes are coarse and rotten. You can swallow it without chewing it once you enter your mouth.

"Hmm. I want to eat this too. ”

Xu Hui also took it to eat.

Liu Mingda saw that the two brothers-in-law were eating very deliciously, and the expression of satisfaction seemed to be delicious, and he also sandwiched a chopstick, which was too salty. I don't chew at all, it's very ordinary, why do you say it's delicious?

"This is how it is eaten, you see."

Xu Ying didn't force Liu Mingda to eat potatoes, but took the steamed bun and handed it to Liu Mingda to eat.

Cover half of the bun first. Then roll the dish you want to eat inside, and then cover the bottom to prevent the dish from falling, and then roll it up.

"It's a bit like our spring cakes over there."

Liu Mingda looked at it and rolled one to eat.

"What are spring cakes?"

Qiu Meihua asked, I haven't eaten it.

"It's similar to this one, but it's smaller than this, and it's also rolled and eaten."

Xu Ying explained to her mother.

The family was talking and eating, and when they were done, there were still two pieces of chicken left on the table. The plate of potatoes was eaten cleanly, and the last bit of soup was poured into the bowl by Qiu Meihua and eaten.

After tidying up, the family sat down on a bed.

It's too cold to sit on a stool, and sitting on a bed can cover your legs.

Xu Chen sat at the end of the bed, Qiu Meihua sat at the head of the bed, Xu Ying sat next to his mother, Liu Mingda sat next to Xu Ying, and Xu Hui and Xu Wei sat opposite. Covering their legs with quilts, several people talked.

"If only there were decks."

Xu Chen looked at the family, and if he had a deck of cards, he would be lively.

"What are the cards?"

Liu Mingda didn't understand.

"It's poker."

Xu Ying explained to him. Now there is almost no mahjong here, no one buys it, but there is poker, and it started when young people got together and had nothing to do. Later, the men also participated, but they all had nothing to do in the winter to kill time, and there were not many people who had poker, and those who had poker borrowed and borrowed it. It's very old, it's very old, and it's not willing to throw it away.

"Yes, last time my brother's classmate came to play at home, he took a deck of cards. I didn't take the time to leave, and I said that next time I came to have fun, I will take it. ”

Xu Hui jumped off the bed and went to find poker.

"What are we going to do?"

Liu Mingda didn't know that playing here was the same as theirs, he had also played poker, and he had nothing to do with his friends before.

"What else can you fight, fight for the top."

Qiu Meihua will not be anything else.

Xu Ying sighed, fighting for the top, I haven't played for many years, and yes, I haven't fought the landlord yet.

Xu Hui brought the poker, and several people began to play.

Now you don't win money, whoever loses sticks a note in your face.

Xu Chen's luck was not good, and he couldn't catch a good card, and he was pasted several cards on his face after a while.

As soon as he saw this, he began to secretly stuff cards into it, and when he came out of the time, he brought a two-card into it.

Xu Ying smiled secretly when he saw it, and Liu Mingda couldn't say it when he saw it, it was his father-in-law, and he was always hard to report.

Xu Wei didn't say anything, Xu Hui wanted to say it, thought about it and swallowed it back.

Qiu Meihua was generally paying attention to her cards, but she didn't see them, and as a result, she lost.

"Quick sticker, quick sticker."

Xu Chen shouted, then took a note and dipped it in saliva and stuck it on Qiu Meihua's face.

"No need for you, I'll stick it myself, you're foaming on it, don't need yours."

Qiu Meihua hurriedly skimmed her face and stuck one by herself.

As a result, Qiu Meihua still lost the next handful.

"Why are you out so fast, not much yet, why are your cards gone?"

Qiu Meihua sensed that something was not right.

"Hurry up and post it, don't lose it, you see how much I've posted. It's not like you. ”

Xu Chen said seriously.

Xu Ying and the others covered their mouths and snickered.

Qiu Meihua pasted one, and then shuffled the cards to start, this time she not only paid attention to her own cards, but also began to pay attention to the field, and suddenly found Xu Chen stuffing cards.

"Okay, I said you came out so fast, you played with you, take the cards back, and then swipe the note and stick it in your face."

Qiu Meihua took the card and threw it to Xu Chen.

"What, I didn't see one brought out, what a fool."

Xu Chen picked up the card and put it in his hand and did not admit it.

"Don't admit it, I'm looking at you this time to see what you're doing."

Qiu Meihua began to stare at Xu Chen.

As a result, Qiu Meihua lost.

"You're throwing cards into it again, aren't you?"

Qiu Meihua was a little unconvinced.

"Hey, you're all watching, where did I throw it, you ask them to see if I'm good."

Xu Chen asked everyone to testify against him.

This time Dad really didn't have a bad job, because he had a good hand.

In this way, the family talked and laughed, and played poker for two hours.

"Zhong, don't fight, your legs are numb, let's sleep, I have to go to your grandmother's house tomorrow."

Qiu Meihua saw that the time was not early, got out of bed, and asked several people to go to sleep.

After washing, Liu Mingda hugged Xu Ying.

"Yingzi, in fact, this kind of life is not bad, and your family is quite harmonious."

Liu Mingda felt that the Xu family was very easy to get along with, and now he no longer had the nervousness he had when he first arrived.

"Hmm."

Xu Ying hummed, and then drilled into Liu Mingda's arms, Liu Mingda was warm, and she was not cold when she was hugged by him. (To be continued.) )
