Chapter 393: Filial Children (4)
But because many people are illiterate, it is often the case that some black-hearted businessmen deliberately sign the wrong deeds to cut their wages.
Although they didn't dare to go too far because of the pressure of the government, they always had to lose dozens of copper plates each time.
This is unbearable for the stingy original owner.
In addition, not only on the dock, but also in many other places, many characters are used, so the original owner ordered everyone in the family to be literate.
At the dinner table, everyone sat in their seats in an orderly manner, waiting for the eldest Jiang Ru to share the food for them.
Everyone looked at Jiang Ru with blank eyes, waiting for her move.
There is not much meat on the table, according to the quantity, that is, a small slice per person.
The meat was thinly sliced, as thick as rice paper.
The fat and thin slices of meat are visible, the fat is crystal clear, and the lean meat is distinct.
A plate of meat is neatly stacked on top of the greens, and it is spread out into a flower.
Jiang Ru couldn't help but be amazed when he saw the thickness of the meat slices.
This eldest daughter-in-law's knife work is good.
When everyone saw that Jiang Ru didn't speak, and he didn't divide the vegetables and meat, they were immediately anxious.
The smell of meat pervades and delves into their noses frantically.
The saliva in my mouth flowed involuntarily, almost coming out.
Everyone swallowed their saliva several times, eager to replace Jiang Ru's hand and share it in person.
But none of them dared to act.
The majesty of the original owner was too great, and they didn't dare to challenge the majesty of their own mother.
Jiang Ru took everyone's performance into his eyes.
This made her even more helpless.
The original owner saved so many things, but he didn't even improve his own life, so that his family was so hungry for a few pieces of meat.
Jiang Rumo waved his hand without hesitation, "Eldest daughter-in-law, you come to scoop the rice, and then each person has a piece of meat." ”
The eldest daughter-in-law was startled, and hurriedly stood up and refused.
"Mother, no need, it's better for you to come, I'm afraid I won't be able to divide it myself."
The rest were surprised.
The mother (grandmother) actually gave the right to share the meal to the daughter-in-law (sister-in-law/aunt).
They didn't dare to speak, they all held their breath and waited for Jiang Ru to continue talking.
Seeing this, Jiang Ru waved his hand impatiently, "If you want to divide it, you will share it!" Don't be verbose! Do you want the old lady to come in person to share the meal? Are you trying to exhaust your mother? ”
As soon as he heard this, the boss Dong Cunliang hurriedly pushed his daughter-in-law, "Daughter-in-law, my mother asked you to share it, so you can share it." ”
The eldest daughter-in-law saw that she couldn't refuse, so she had to tremble and share the meal according to the previous rules.
Large bowls are used for men, medium bowls are used for women and half-grown children, and small bowls are used for small children.
After the separation, the eldest daughter-in-law looked at Jiang Ru cautiously, "Mother, it's divided." ”
Jiang Ru served a bowl of herself, and then waved her hand impatiently.
"You have your own hands, don't you know the end? Could it be that you are still waiting for my wife to give it to you, right? ”
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other and hurriedly brought their bowls.
But the meat has not yet been divided, but everyone does not dare to squeak, only dare to bow their heads and drink some sticky porridge to relieve their hunger.
Jiang Ru saw this situation, so he said: "Each person will have a piece of meat by themselves, and no more is allowed!" ”
Everyone dared to move their chopsticks and took away the thin piece of meat that belonged to them.
The meat is really thin, and a small piece is not enough to stuff your teeth. 000 Literature
But everyone ate with relish.
Take a bite carefully, and you can't even chew it in your mouth.
Even if you eat it very preciously, but such a small piece of meat, you can still eat it quickly.
Everyone's faces showed regret.
Especially the unaware men and children, they all sighed in their hearts: I don't know when the next time I will eat meat.
Only women know that such a large piece of meat, if you eat it for half a month, you can eat meat every day.
It's just that I don't know when my mother will regret it and take back that piece of meat.
The three women prayed in their hearts that their mother-in-law would not regret it and let them eat more meat.
After eating, Jiang Ru decided to have a family meeting.
It's a family meeting, it's better to announce her changes about future meals.
"When I got sick this time, the doctor said that I didn't eat well, so from today onwards, we will change our diet, eat one dry meal a day, two thick meals, and add some meat and eggs to nourish our body. Don't sell the eggs laid by the chickens raised at home, keep them for eating, and use all the eggs to steam them and eat them. ”
"Mother, you are not in good health, you can eat it yourself, we don't need it." When the boss heard this, he hurriedly persuaded him.
These eggs are precious items, where can I eat them every day?
"Yes, mother, we don't need it, just leave two for the children to eat." The three daughters-in-law hurriedly expressed their positions, afraid that they would be remembered by their mother-in-law if they said it too late
"I'm not a solitary eater! I eat, and you as my son and daughter-in-law will naturally eat with me! Otherwise, others will think that I deliberately mistreated you! I'm just going to tell you about this, but I didn't let you talk nonsense. ”
After Jiang Ru announced what he was going to say, he returned to the room and took out the bag of prepared snacks.
"This snack has been left for a long time, and it is almost impossible to eat, you can eat two pieces of food for each person, but you can't waste it!"
With that, he put his things on the table and turned to leave.
Leaving everyone looking at each other.
How can my mother be willing to give them snacks?
You must know that this snack is a tribute specially bought by the mother, and it is for the gods and Buddhas, and they usually don't give them a little bit of it.
"It doesn't matter if he has so much, he can just eat some anyway."
The third child thinks the most.
This is given by the mother herself anyway, not what they stole to eat, so what is there to hesitate about.
Besides, this is their mother, what's so scary? It's hard to poison the dim sum
He took six pieces from his own family, gave two pieces to his daughter-in-law, and gave two pieces to his son Dong Youbao.
"Eat it!" Dong Cunhuang urged.
His daughter-in-law hurriedly waved her hand, "I won't eat it, keep these two pieces for Youbao to eat tomorrow." ”
"My mother just said that this thing has been put away for a long time and can't be put again. If we don't eat it, it's a waste! And you have two pieces of your own, where do you need to save from your mouth? Dong Cunhuang said.
To say that Dong Cunhuang is a calculating, but he is really good to his daughter-in-law, although he likes to be lazy on weekdays, he will always help her when he can help his daughter-in-law, although it is only lip service
Sure enough, hearing his words, his daughter-in-law Dong Li suddenly blushed and ate snacks happily.
Dong Youbao ate dim sum in small bites, but he didn't dare to ask his father and mother for it.
First, because Dad said so, if he wants it again, Dad will definitely be angry
The second is because grandma said two yuan per person, that is, he secretly asked for it, and if grandma knew about it, she would definitely scold him.
Except for his grandmother, he is most afraid of his father.
Seeing the third room like this, the other two rooms hurriedly took their own shares and ate them carefully.
At night, Dong Li recalled the taste in his mouth, and couldn't sleep over and over.
Since that day, the food at home has risen several grades, and the complexion of the Dong family has become better at a speed visible to the naked eye.
