Chapter 64: Introducing Objects
Seeing me come out, Zhang Qiongyu gave me a cold look, turned around and returned to the sofa.
The kitchen was still jumping with chickens and dogs, and my grandmother finally beat Widow Zhang several times, and finally my grandfather forcibly pulled her back to the bedroom before stopping.
Widow Zhang hugged my dad aggrievedly and kept crying, and my dad was there to comfort her, and he said everything, but she still cried.
"Qiongyu, come to comfort and comfort your mother." My dad had no choice but to call Zhang Qiongyu.
Zhang Qiongyu stood up silently and walked to the kitchen.
After a short while, Widow Zhang magically stopped crying.
At this time, my grandmother also came out of the bedroom under the persuasion of my grandfather, and sat down on the sofa with a long face.
After a while, Widow Zhang cleaned herself up and walked out of the kitchen.
When my grandmother saw her, she snorted and turned her head away.
My grandfather sighed right next to me, "This is a big New Year's ......"
Widow Zhang also sat down at this time, wiped the corners of her eyes and said to my grandfather, "Dad, I was wrong just now, and it was right for my mother to beat me a few times to get angry, but I was too stupid to even make dumplings, and then Guozheng didn't let me wrap them......"
"Yes, Mom, I won't let her wrap it, clumsy or I'll wrap it, this year I'll make dumplings for my parents to taste." My dad hurriedly said with a smile.
My grandmother glared at my dad with hatred and sarcastically, "You're a daughter-in-law who will hurt you." ”
My dad laughed, "That, Mom, try the dumplings, I have already cooked them just now, Shen Jiang and Shen Bi will go and serve the bowl." ”
At this time, he didn't forget to call the two of us.
Shen Bi stared at her and didn't want to stand up, I wanted to go home quickly, so I pulled her, and the two of them went into the kitchen together, shabu the bowl, and came out with seven bowls of dumplings.
Because my dad is making the bag alone, he himself is clumsy, the number of bags is small, and the dumplings are very ugly, with a lot of broken skin, and they are almost cooked into pastry soup.
As I scooped the bowl, I missed my mother's thin-skinned meat dumplings.
"Sister, I want to eat my mother's dumplings." As if she had a heart, Shen Bi pouted beside me and muttered.
I smiled, "Let's go, bring them the bowls, finish them quickly, and we'll go home to find my mother right away." ”
Shen Bi grinned at this time and brought out seven bowls of dumplings with very small portions.
When my grandmother saw the bowl of noodle soup, her eyes widened, "This ...... This is called dumplings? ”
My dad rubbed his hands together in embarrassment, "That'...... Mom, I'm going to eat it, it's actually pretty good......"
My grandmother threw the chopsticks angrily, turned her head, and said sharply, "This thing is still called dumplings, why don't you talk about cooking porridge, let me eat boiled cakes." ”
Suddenly, downstairs remembered the loud sound of firecrackers, and the sound of cheering, my grandmother was so angry that she was about to cry, "Just like you, how do you eat when you are in Chinese New Year's Eve, why do your brothers and sisters come over to eat?" A piece of cake soup? ”
My dad sighed, clutching his head helplessly.
After a few moments, he suddenly looked at me.
I have some bad premonitions in my heart.
Sure enough, my dad said to me hesitantly, "Xiao Jiang, your mother...... Is your mom still open these days? ”
"No, it's not open." I frowned, "I've been busy for more than half a year, I asked my mother to rest for two days, and the province was so tired that her shoulders hurt, and she had to ask me and Shen Bi to beat my back every night, which was too hard." ”
"That'...... Then ......" My dad's lips squirmed for a moment, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Xiaojiang, can you let your mother come over and help make some dumplings?" Not too much, just enough to eat on the 30th day. ”
I sneered, I didn't expect the words to be so clear, my dad still pretended to be stupid and continued to ask.
In the Shen family, Chinese New Year's Eve has to gather and eat in the old family, my grandmother has a total of four children, everyone has a family, less than a family of three, more than a family of five, counting my grandparents at least twenty.
In the past, my mother had to come four or five days in advance to make dumplings and prepare food and drink for this group of people.
Now my mother is not the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, and secondly, there is not enough time, tomorrow will be thirty, and she has no time to make enough dumplings for so many people.
But my dad still opened his mouth.
Does he really not understand, or is he pretending to be confused?
I stared at my biological father, trying to find out what his heart was made of.
"You...... Xiao Jiang, what are you looking at me like this? My dad was a little hairy by my gaze, and he lowered his head in a hurry.
I sneered, "Dad, don't you understand what I'm saying?" My mother is not feeling well, she can't make dumplings for you, you will die of that heart. ”
Maybe I was so unkind, my dad's face turned from blue to white, and finally to black.
"Shen Jiang." He shouted angrily, "I'm asking your mother about this, not you." ”
"I can answer for my mom." I pursed my lips and looked at my grandfather, "Grandpa also thinks my mother should come to make dumplings?" ”
My grandfather's face was a little red, "How can that, Xiaojiang's mother has divorced you, how can you let the divorced daughter-in-law come back to make dumplings, or let Qiongyu's mother make them, tonight, your mother and I will also help, and we have to make enough dumplings to eat." ”
"Dad......" My dad glanced at my grandfather, but was glared back by my grandfather.
"So be it." I lowered my head and glanced at the dumpling porridge that was about to cool down, and I didn't have the desire to eat it in one bite.
"Come to dinner, Guozheng, you go set off a firecracker." In order to mellow the stiff atmosphere, my grandfather took the lead in holding the dumpling porridge, and when my father went to the window and lit a hundred firecrackers, he began to eat.
My grandmother has been spoiled by my mother's craftsmanship over the years, and now when she encounters such strange dumplings at first glance, she can't eat them at all, so she barely stuffs them in two mouthfuls and throws the bowl in anger.
My grandfather just hadn't eaten enough, so he ate my grandmother's bowl.
Shen Bi and I barely finished eating the most unpalatable dumplings we had ever eaten in our lives, and put down the dishes and chopsticks.
"Dad, Mom, drink some drinks and eat some melon seeds." Seeing this, my father hurriedly brought melon seeds, peanuts and drinks, and put them in front of my grandmother as if flattering.
My grandmother grabbed a handful of melon seeds and ate them there.
My grandfather held a handful and put it in front of me and Shen Bi.
I thanked them, didn't touch the melon seeds and peanuts, and thought in my heart that I wanted to tell them that I had to go home.
At this moment, Widow Zhang suddenly smiled, holding a bowl with a poured drink, and put it in front of me, "Xiao Jiang is eighteen years old." ”
I looked at her warily and nodded.
Widow Zhang laughed again, her voice was a little coquettish, and it made me very uncomfortable to hear, "I'm eighteen years old, I'm a big girl, alas, I think I was married at the age of eighteen, oops, time flies so fast." ”
Get married?
When I heard this keyword, I raised my eyebrows, and suddenly remembered what had happened in the past.
Because my parents divorced, I was absent-minded all year in my senior year of high school, and I failed the college entrance examination unexpectedly, my father originally wanted me to repeat my studies for a year, but Widow Zhang said that it is useless for girls to read so many books, and it is better to marry a good man.
Then he introduced me to Zhu Zicong, and we got along for two years and married me.
At that time, Zhu Zicong's family was quite ordinary, but in some places there were still some connections, and after I got married, Widow Zhang's brother and younger brother inexplicably became formal workers.
Speaking of which, my relationship with Zhu Zicong is not very good, at most he is a respectful guest, he is a silent person, he doesn't like to talk much, and he doesn't communicate and communicate, his mother bullies me, he doesn't speak, he doesn't coax each other, and he doesn't act as a-stirring stick, which is considered futile.
After eight years of marriage, I finally got pregnant, and my mother finally stopped calling me a hen that didn't lay eggs.
It's a pity that the child didn't come to the world, and I died with me.
For Zhu Zicong, the husband of the previous life, I can't talk about hating him so fiercely, but I don't want to see him either.
Because I haven't taken the college entrance examination yet, I planned for myself early, I must be admitted to the university, avoid the opportunity to meet Zhu Zicong.
Unexpectedly, before it was time for the college entrance examination, Widow Zhang mentioned this stubble.
Does she still want to marry me to Zhu Zicong again?
I raised my head, feeling very unhappy, "Aunt Zhang just suffered the loss of getting married early, and she was unladylike when she met someone, otherwise how could Qiongyu not have a father, right?" ”
Widow Zhang didn't expect me to poke at her ex-husband through her words, and her face suddenly changed greatly, she looked at me and didn't dare to speak again.
Zhang Qiongyu's face was also very ugly, and she lowered her head and retorted to me, "I have a father." ”
After saying that, I snuggled up to my dad's side.
I frowned, and suddenly realized that Zhang Qiongyu had an almost perverted possessiveness towards my father.
Could it be that she just wanted to monopolize my dad, so she targeted us sisters like that?
"Shen Jiang, don't talk nonsense." Before I could think about it, my father had already protected Zhang Qiongyu and shouted at me, "How can I talk to your Aunt Zhang, it's not big or small." ”
I grinned and looked at my dad without fear, "What I said is always true, it's really no good to get married so early, you look at my mother, divorced, you look at Aunt Zhang, widowed, even with children are guilty, right, Aunt Zhang." ”
Widow Zhang was pale and shaky by what I said.
My dad didn't look good on his face either, and he opened his mouth to scold me, but I didn't know what he thought, so he closed his mouth again and glanced at Widow Zhang.
Widow Zhang's hands stirred for a moment, barely smiled, and looked at me, "Getting married at the age of eighteen or nineteen, that's normal, it's not early at all, you see that your two aunts are doing well, they are also married at this age, and they don't know how good they are." ”
After speaking, without waiting for me to speak, he hurriedly said, "Xiao Jiang, aunt looks at you and you have reached the age of marriage, or will aunt tell you a partner?" While you're young now, you can pick one? ”
