Father An turned around and glanced at the sleeping An Ran, and motioned for An Ning to be quiet. Only then did he hold An Ning in his arms, and the corners of his mouth were raised high. Seeing his daughters, An Jin was happy in his heart. patted An Ning's back, and then said, "Miss Dad?" Daddy bought you something delicious! As he spoke, he put An Ning on the kang and took off a small green backpack from his shoulder.

An Jinxi took out a bottle of canned fruit, a bag of brown sugar, and a paper bag wrapped in paper rope from his backpack.

An Ning watched as the delicious food was taken out, and her eyes lit up all of a sudden.

Father An opened the paper bag, and it contained a stack of peach cakes. The peach crisp is brown in color and oily all over. It's very appetizing to look at. Father An took a piece in one hand, gave Anxin with one hand, and gave Anning with the other, and said in his mouth: "Eat, I bought it for you." ”

At that time, when he heard that Anxin had fallen and injured himself, An Jin was anxious. I only thought about going home to see the child, but the administrator Liu Hongliang told him that when the child was sick, he should eat something delicious and remind himself to buy some delicious food for the child to bring back. An Jinxi blamed himself very much in his heart, since his wife died, he dragged several children to live. The conditions at home are not good, and I really haven't bought anything delicious for my children. Thinking about this, I feel even more guilty.

An Ning put the peach crisp in his mouth, took a small bite, and the scum that fell from his mouth scared An Ning. She hurriedly looked up, looked helplessly at her sister, and then at her father. The aggrieved little appearance made Anxin amused and distressed to see.

The poverty of this family, peace of mind is known. But the children hadn't even eaten peach cakes, which surprised Anxin. Money! Or money! They are all poor.

"Ningzi, eat! This thing is a slag that falls off when you bite it, and if it doesn't fall off the slag, it won't taste good!" Father An hurriedly signaled An Ning and let An Ning continue to eat.

An Xin also pinched the piece of peach cake he had shared, put it in his mouth and took a bite, and then smiled at An Ning.

An Ning listened to her father and sister's words, and saw that her sister was also eating. Only then did he let go of his guts, but this time An Ning held the peach cake with his left hand and his right hand under his chin, so that the scum that fell could not fall to the ground, and he could still eat it in his mouth.

The second daughter's small movements deeply stung An Jinxi's eyes. An Jinxi turned around and secretly wiped his tears, then turned his head and continued to watch his daughter eat peach crisp.

The peach crisp is not big, and it is the size of an adult's palm. No matter how small you eat, there is a time when you finish eating. An Ning put the last small piece of peach crisp into her mouth, and the last time she experienced the crispy taste and melted in her mouth, she closed her eyes intoxicatedly, and then sighed: "This peach crisp is so delicious!" There is no peach flavor, no peach flavor, why is it called peach crisp? After speaking, he looked at An's father: "Dad, you can taste it too, it's really delicious!" ”

An Jinxi shook his head and said, "I have already eaten, you eat."

At this time, the piece of peach cake that was safe had already been eaten. knew that Father An was reluctant to eat, so he didn't persuade him. While packing up the paper bag, he looked at An Ning's greedy little appearance, grinned, pointed his finger on An Ning's forehead and said, "How can there be so many whys, peach crisp is called peach crisp." If you want to know why, just go to school and study, and when you study, you will learn everything and know everything. ”

"Really? Does school still teach this? An Ning was immediately attracted and asked with a yearning expression.

"Really, you can learn anything you want, as long as you go to school well, you can learn anything!" Continue to induce with peace of mind.

"Dad, can I go to school?" An Ning turned his head to look at An's father, with a yearning on his face.

looked at the second daughter who was full of hope, and didn't know how to say the words full of words. Originally, on the way back, An Jinxi thought about it, and when he returned to the unit tomorrow, he would resign with the manager of the supply and marketing cooperative, and the three children at home were too reassuring to let him go. It's better to keep care of the children at home. No amount of money can be exchanged for a daughter! But the second daughter's request made An Jinxi's words impossible to say. It costs money to go to school, and if you don't go to work anymore, do you still have money to let your daughters go to school? Do you only let the second daughter go to school, and the eldest and third look at it? If you don't go to work, you don't have money, go to work? The children in the family made him feel at ease, if another child had an accident, the consequences would be unimaginable.

An Jinxi looked at An Ning's hopeful eyes, as if he had been burned, his eyes dodged left and right, but he didn't dare to look at An Ning's eyes, and only said after half a sound: "~~ Ningzi, don't be in a hurry to go to school~~~, wait for the production team to divide the money at the end of the year, and let all three of you sisters go to school next year." I'll cook for you at home every day??????"

Wrap the opened peach cake in paper and put everything on the box at the tip of the kang. When I turned around, I saw Father An's dodging gaze, and when I thought of Father An's uncertainty when he spoke, I had a premonition in my heart. When I heard the production team's money, I finally knew that An's father was not going to go to work.

Anxin knew that An's father chose to do this job, in addition to paying off his debts early, he also wanted to make the children's lives better. To be able to get this job, it was An Jinxi's cousin who gave a strong shot. An's father's cousin, Su Jianguo, is the deputy manager of the county supply and marketing company, so he can get this job. Ordinary people will never get such a job. Even if Su Jianguo encounters such an opportunity, it is rare, An Jinxi has done a good job, and there is even hope that he will become a regular worker and eat commercial grain in the future. Although in the previous life, in the era of peace of mind, commercial grain was no longer beneficial, and it was not even as good as the agricultural household registration. But between now and the era when commercial grain is not popular, there will be at least 20 years, and An Jinxi will almost be able to retire by then. For the sake of a better life now and in the future, An's father's job cannot be lost.

Anxin came to An Jinxi's side, looked at An Jinxi's eyes with bright eyes, and took his hand: "Dad, you don't work at the supply and marketing cooperatives anymore?" An Ning and I still have to go to school! We will be admitted to university in the future, and after we go to university, we will be able to have a good job, and we will be able to earn money with a good job. When the time comes, we will buy you peach crisps to eat every day. ”

An Jinxi's unspeakable words were said by Anxin, and he was relieved, and gently patted the back of Anxin's hand: "Xin'er, Ningzi, there is such a big thing happening to the three of you sisters at home, I can't rest assured at work!" I'm still working in the production team in the future, and I can still serve you, how good is that! You say don't you? “

Anxin's hand shrank and came out of An's father's palm. solemnly said to Father An: "Dad, I can already cook." I don't believe you, ask for peace. I will definitely be careful when carrying water in the future, and this will never happen again. Dad, I beg you, we have to go to school, and the money allocated by the production team is not enough for us to go to school, buy books, and buy pens. You just go to work! Good no good? We will be filial to you in the future. As he spoke, he glanced at An Ning, and when An Ning looked at it, he also took An's father's hand and made jokes unrelentingly.

An Jinxi heard Anxin use the word "ask" to speak to himself. There was a twitch in his heart, his face suddenly turned pale, his hands were clenched into fists, and his nails were pinched into his palms. His own children even spoke to themselves with the words of begging, and they couldn't even earn money for their children's schooling. I'm so useless. This is a fatal blow to a five-foot-tall man. Seeing the child begging for himself, An Jinxi nodded slowly

Father An's face was wrong, and Anxin felt uncomfortable, if he didn't use this soft knife to speak, Father An would definitely go home to farm. For the sake of the long-term consideration of the family, in order for the three sisters of the An family to go to school in the near future, it is the best choice to let An's father go to work. Besides, if An's father is at home, it will definitely have an impact on the plan to live a good life with peace of mind and wealth. Therefore, it is better for Father An to go back to work.

"Dad, you must be hungry after walking so far, I'll roll some noodles for you and let you taste my craft." Seeing that the atmosphere in the house was not good, Anxin hurriedly tried to find a way to liven up the atmosphere, blinked his eyes at An Ning again, opened the door curtain and went out.

Not to mention, the tacit understanding of tranquility and peace of mind is not bad. As soon as An An walked to the outhouse, he heard An Ning in the house, and An Ning gaged at Father An, and after a while, Father An's low laughter came out. Anxin covered his mouth and snickered for a while, and quickly started cooking.

I lit the oil lamp, scooped a bowl of white noodles into the basin with peace of mind, added a little salt, added a little water, and made the noodles hard. Place it on a board, roll out a long and thin white noodle with a rolling pin, and then cut some shredded cabbage. After preparing all the things, I went out of the house with peace of mind and hugged a handful of firewood, and then lit a fire. After a while, a large bowl of original noodle soup was out of the pot.

Anxin put the noodles in a large bowl, put them on the cutting board, and brought the table into the house.

Father An was talking to An Ning, when he saw An An coming in with a dining table, and said, "Just eat with a bowl, what kind of dining table do you have!" It's not too much trouble. As he spoke, he took the table and put it on the kang that An Ning had cleaned up.

An Ning saw Anxin coming in, and quickly got up and rolled up the quilt spread on the kang.

Father An put down the table, leaned over and patted An Ning's head, and praised: "I've been gone for a few days, and An Ning has become well-behaved, so I really have eyes." ”

An Ning kept his hands in his hand, raised his neck, and said arrogantly: "That's"

Set up the table, bring in the noodles with peace of mind, and put them on the table. turned around and went out of the house again, brought a hot wet hand towel for An's father, and wiped An's hands.

An Jinxi took the wet hand towel, wiped his hands, sighed comfortably, and said: "I'm kind of stained with the light of my daughter, see who of them dares to laugh at me!" ”

The people in the village have a very strict concept of patriarchy, and when they saw that An Jinxi had only three daughters in the family, they all called An Jinxi the head of the account behind their backs. Although An Jinxi was angry, he never disliked his three daughters. On the contrary, he loves the girls very much.

An An took the handkerchief in An's father's hand and said to An's father: "Dad, don't worry, don't look at you without a son, in the future, our sisters will make you happier than those who have a son." Dad, you just wait to enjoy the blessings! ”

At first, Anxin was very reluctant to call a man younger than his previous life a grade to call him Dad. But the moment I saw An's father, I didn't know if it was Anxin's memory or other reasons, so my father naturally screamed out. Looking at the father who is extremely worried and loving for his daughter. The last bit of worry is gone. Later, in getting along more and more harmoniously, he really regarded An Jinxi as his father. In the future, filial piety to his father will make his life happier in his later years is also a feeling and a heartfelt thought.

An Ning finally rolled up the quilt at this time, turned around and sat down in front of the kang table, and waved his hand: "Let those broken mouths in the village take a good look, what's wrong with having a son?" What's wrong with not having a son? It's better to live without a son, let them go! ”

The domineering little appearance of the second daughter made An Jinxi feel very funny, and her daughter's intimate words made An Jinxi's heart full of warm touch. Rubbing An Ning's head with his hands, a shallow smile appeared on his face, and his eyes were slightly red.

"Dad, let's eat, how about tasting the noodles I made?" A pair of chopsticks were handed to An Jinxi.

An Jinxi took a deep breath, took the chopsticks, and looked down at the bowl full of noodles.

The oil lamp dimmed, and the light shone into the bowl, and all I could see was a puddle of sauce-yellow noodle soup soaked in the thin noodles and thinly chopped cabbage shreds.

Pick up a few noodles with chopsticks and bring them to your mouth, and the first thing you feel is that the noodle soup is salty and fragrant, and when you bite it gently with your teeth, the firm texture is eye-catching. There is also a hint of spiciness, which makes people appetize.

Father An ate two mouthfuls of noodles in a row and drank a mouthful of soup before he could speak: "Well, it's delicious." The heart is with me. Cooking is delicious. ”

An's father's enjoyment made An Ning very proud, and hurriedly invited credit: "Dad, my sister can cook now, can make pimple soup, can paste cakes, can stir-fry, and the cooking is delicious!" ”

Father An looked at Anxin in surprise: "Xin'er is really capable, I've only been gone for a few days, and you've learned everything?" ”

An An lowered his head and looked shy: "It doesn't work at first, it takes half a day to cook a meal." Later, when I was fine, I wondered how my dad usually cooked. Thinking about it while doing it, that's what it is. ”

An Jinxi is very proud, this is the result of his usual subtlety! It seems that this is really a hero of Lao Tzu! My daughter has this talent, and she must not waste it. Thinking like this, I can't take care of eating, holding chopsticks in one hand and holding a spoon in the other, gesturing, and the commentary in my mouth: "The pot must be hot, and the oil can only be put in when the pot is hot, and the oil ?????? put in it."

An Jinxi's father was a cook, and he was famous in the restaurant industry in Zhili City for many years. But he died very early, shortly after the liberation. Influenced by his father, he was very fond of cooking. Due to the influence of the current environment, there are no materials at home for An Jinxi to practice cooking. This made An Jinxi very frustrated, but he still seized the opportunity to practice, as long as An Jinxi was at home, the meals at home were basically made by An Jinxi, including when An Jinxi's mother was alive. Later, everyone in the village who had a little red and white happy event liked to ask An Jinxi to help. An Jinxi's cousin Su Jianguo also helped him find this cooking job because An Jinxi could cook.

Anxin slandered in his heart, his craft was brought from his previous life, and he was able to practice his skills by virtue of An Jinxi's usual cooking at home and steaming nest heads? I thought in my heart, but I didn't dare to bring it to the face. looked at Father An's teaching with a sincere face, and had to ask some small questions from time to time to satisfy Father An's desire to teach. Anxin almost didn't go crazy on the spot.

An Ning rushed to Anxin, squeezed his eyebrows, and signaled Anxin not to learn from An's father.

After talking for a while, An Jinxi continued to eat noodles. Anxin hurriedly used the excuse of boiling hot water to soak An's father's feet before he could get out of the back room.

When he arrived at the outhouse, Anxin let out a long sigh. After relieving himself, he began to brush the pot and boil the water.

The water here is hot, and Father An has finished eating.

Anxin put away the dishes and chopsticks, and An Ning also helped move the table out. Anxin brought a basin of hot foot washing water to An's father and let An's father soak his feet.

His sore feet were put into the hot water, and Father An sighed comfortably. Relying on a lot of energy, I walked for more than 3 hours and more than 50 miles in one go. Because I had something on my mind, I didn't feel tired at all. It's just that his legs were weak and he trembled vigorously by the letter carried by Sun Guoqing's daughter-in-law. It wasn't until I saw that my daughter was nothing big that this shaking slowly passed. An Jinxi realized that his legs were sore, and he had no strength at all, and he couldn't even stand up.

The eldest daughter filial piety brought the foot washing water, and the second daughter took off her shoes and helped herself wash her feet. My daughter is older and sensible.

Anxin packed up the kitchen and entered the house, only to find that An Ning had already laid out the quilt.

An Ran didn't move on the kang, and An's father was next to An Ran. An Ning is next to An's father's right, and An Ning is next to An Ning.

An An breathed a sigh of relief, although he recognized Father An, he had to sleep next to Father An. Peace of mind still feels very stressful.

Safely pour out the water for soaking Ann's father's feet. He changed the clean water and came in, wet the towel, handed it to An's father, and asked him to wipe his face. His face was covered with sweat and a lot of dust. Just sleep like that. Anxin felt sorry for him.

The family was cleaned up, and then the lamp was blown out and slept. An Ning is a child who sleeps with a pillow. An's father was also very tired and anxious, and he snored when he lay down. Anxin couldn't sleep, she wanted to go to the farm space to clean up the crops, but she was afraid of being discovered by An's father. After waiting for a while, I finally decided to go in and have a look and come out immediately.
