The atmosphere in the courtyard was dreary, but the kitchen was much more cheerful.

The wild vegetable dumpling soup has been filled with melon scoops, and a large pot is full. Liang Hongxia smiled all the time, and deliberately cut a handful of crisp green onions and sprinkled them in the soup for polishing.

When I looked outside, I saw that the men were all back and shouted excitedly, "Dad, mother, the head of the house, it's time to eat!" Eat meat dumplings today! ”

Zhong Miao and Wang Baolian had already moved the big table they used for dinner to the middle of the courtyard, while Wang Wenyuan and Wang Wenjing took a small bench in one hand.

I caught a glimpse of Yang Qingxiang and Liang Hongxia coming out with a pot full of dumpling soup, and hurriedly held down Wang Ping and Wang An, who came forward again, to save any mess.

After the dumpling soup was placed on the table, Liang Hongxia sat down and said very nicely.

"Brother and sister, you can take the rest of the dishes and chopsticks. The dumpling soup is still hot, I'm afraid that Wang Ping and Wang An will be knocked over by the restlessness of the two monkeys, and no one will be watching it? ”

Yang Qingxiang didn't care about her, and went to the house instead.

When the dishes and chopsticks were taken out, several Wang family men had already taken their seats. Before she had time to set the dishes and chopsticks, Liang Hongxia couldn't wait to urge Yang Qingxiang to give her the bowl first.

"Brother and sister, you should move quickly, look at my two greedy cats, they are starting to make trouble again."

Mrs. Jiang really couldn't look at it, and glanced at her fiercely, "Wang Ping and Wang An have their own bowls, what do you want them to do?" ”

I looked into the twins' bowls again, and before they got the bowls, their two bowls were already filled with white meat dumplings. also deliberately pasted a lump of wild vegetables on the top, covering it up, for fear of being seen.

Mrs. Jiang looked at her as if she wanted to tear her apart.

"Second daughter-in-law, what do you see? Your father, Baoshan and Baofu are the ones who have to make a big effort, and they haven't even drunk the soup yet! It's good for you to put all the dumplings in the bowls of the two children, is this like a word? ”

Liang Hongxia saw that her small actions did not escape Mrs. Jiang's eyes, so she had to defend herself with a smile.

"Mother, if there is delicious food at home, you naturally have to worry about them, but you didn't see it too, and it was very troublesome if you didn't give it to Wang Ping and Wang An. What's more, the brothers are growing up, and they should eat more good food. ”

She looked at Mrs. Jiang with her eyes, and couldn't help muttering a few more words, "They are your own grandchildren, and they will honor you when they grow up." It's not like the girl's family, when you grow up and get married, it's hard for you to eat a mouthful of her. ”

These words include the Wang family from childhood to Wang Wenjing and Wang Baolian.

Mrs. Jiang slapped the table and stood up.

"Second daughter-in-law, what are you talking nonsense? What's wrong with the girl? Whether it's quiet or Pauline, which one is not well-behaved and sensible? People also know that they have made money to buy us meat dumplings to eat, and if you look at you again, you will be tired of cooking! ”

"What else is there that doesn't kiss your grandson? Let me tell you, whether it is Wang Ping, Wang An or Wen Jing, they are all my good grandchildren! Don't mention any men and women, since I have the blood of the Wang family on my body, I will hurt just as much! ”

Wang Baofu's face was red, and before he had eaten this meal, his mother-in-law made a fuss first.

was originally happy, but this turn of the head quarreled again.

"Hongxia, what are you making a fuss about! Mother is right, don't mention any male grandchildren in the future. Besides, my father and mother haven't moved their chopsticks yet, how can you fill Wang Ping's and Wang An's bowl with dumplings first?

Liang Hongxia was also anxious, "The master, I only ate so many meat dumplings at the end of the year, Wang Ping and Wang An are very greedy, what's wrong with eating two more?" Besides, isn't this hot? ”

"Children are afraid of being hot and eat slowly, so they should be put to cool before eating. Otherwise, when they eat one or two dumplings, it is estimated that there will not even be a mouthful of soup in this pot. ”

“……”

At the moment of the argument at the dinner table, Zhong Miao had already helped Yang Qingxiang distribute the dishes and chopsticks to everyone.

Seeing that Yang Qingxiang was still busy, Zhong Miao insisted on pressing her in her position and personally serving dumpling soup to Mrs. Jiang and Mr. Wang.

After serving, he took over the bowls of the eldest uncle Wang Baoshan and the second uncle Wang Baofu, followed by Yang Qingxiang and Wang Baolian.

After the elders have been served, it will be the juniors' turn.

Zhong Miao filled all the bowls on the table before she sat back. Liang Hongxia fought more and more for those dumplings, and only gave up after being scolded by Mrs. Jiang for being selfish and disrespecting her elders.

Liang Hongxia was very unconvinced.

She was busy with this dumpling from chopping meat to making meat filling to serving it, and she was never lazy. Just for this, isn't it reasonable for her to pretend to be a few more for Wang Ping and Wang An?

As for turning her face because of those two bowls of dumplings?

Angry, she can't eat less dumplings because of this. After Liang Hongxia came back to her senses, she took the bowl and was about to scoop the dumpling soup, looking at the four in the bowl, she thought it was Wang Ping and Wang An were filial and came from her bowl.

This immediately made me happy two points.

But when I stood up and looked into the pot, I was dumbfounded.

Where else are the dumplings in there? It's empty, that is, there are not even a few wild vegetables left. The pot that was originally full of soup is now left with a small amount of soup base.

"What about dumplings? Isn't it a lot? Why is it gone? ”

Liang Hongxia screamed, turned her head and looked at the other people's bowls on the table, and her voice was much higher, "No, it's okay if you divide it, why are you all full of bowls, and I only got four?" You are clearly bullying! ”

Liang Hongxia was about to burst into tears, so she went to Wang Baofu to cry immediately.

"The master, you have also seen it, let alone my father and mother, Wen Jing is such a small one, there are six dumplings in the bowl! Why am I not as much as hers? I worked hard for this family, but in the end I could only eat four dumplings! ”

"If you don't like me, you can make it clear! It's all your own family, isn't it? It's hard to have a good meal, but it's treating me so badly! If you don't help me get an explanation, I won't be able to live this life! ”

Wang Baofu looked at every bowl on the table, and it was indeed as her mother-in-law said, all of them were full, only her bowl contained four dumplings and some wild vegetables. Compared with other people's, the amount is very small.

He frowned, "Brother and sister, you have always known when you serve food and vegetables, why is there so little Hongxia at this time?" Didn't you accidentally give Shaosheng? ”

Yang Qingxiang hadn't spoken yet, so Zhong Miao took over the conversation first.

"Second uncle, you misunderstood, I saw that my mother was busy until now, so I asked her to sit and wait for food. Today's wild vegetable dumpling soup is served by me to everyone, and it has nothing to do with my mother. ”
