January 14, the twelfth day of the lunar month.

The weather was already bitterly cold, and in the morning, Su Qinghe entered the kitchen in a coat, and the old lady in a plain Tang dress and cotton jacket was already busy.

Seeing Su Qinghe, the old lady turned her head and said, "Go and call Tingting over, the porridge is almost ready." ”

Su Qinghe leaned over, took a deep breath, and inhaled the rising heat into his body, "It's been a long time since I've eaten the porridge you made, I remember that when I was studying in the past, every time I had a final exam, you would always cook a pot of delicious porridge." ”

"It's you who eat less, Achi Ahai and a few of them don't eat less!" The old lady looked at Su Qinghe lovingly, don't look at her now that she only has good believing, and she is obedient to her, but in her heart, she always feels that she can't overtake Su Qinghe, "If you like to eat, my mother-in-law will make it for you every day!" ”

Su Qinghe shook his head and said, "No need, eating every day doesn't have that sense of ritual." ”

"What is a sense of ritual or not, isn't it just a porridge!" The old lady spoke casually, but the knife-like wrinkles on her face were stacked, and her eyes were full of joy.

"How can this be a simple porridge, this is the champion and the first porridge made by your mother-in-law, you can take the first place in the exam if you eat it!" Su Qinghe was like a dog, and enthusiastically touted, "This porridge cooked by others doesn't have this effect!" ”

"How can there be such an exaggeration, that's your own struggle!" The old lady knocked Su Qinghe's brain lightly, and the smile on her face was even worse, "Okay, go over and call Tingting!" ”

The first porridge is actually pork offal porridge, but it has more ingredients than the pork offal porridge that is usually cooked, and there are also several more auxiliary ingredients.

Because of the meaning of the first porridge, in the past, when the Su Qinghe brothers had the final exam, the old lady would always order the pork offal with the pork boss in advance, and get up early to cook a big pot of porridge and the first porridge to ask for good luck.

When Su Qingchi and Su Qinghai were in junior high school, the old lady would ask Su Zhiliang to send them early in the morning. When they were in high school in the county, the old lady couldn't reach it, but she also asked Su Yuejia to cook a pot of porridge for them and send it.

And today, Su Xiaoting is going to have a final exam, and the old lady made a pot and porridge by herself to place her high hopes for Su Xiaoting.

When Su Qinghe went to Su Xiaoting's house, her house was already brightly lit, the courtyard door was open, Su Qinghe pushed the door in, and saw Su Meng checking Su Xiaoting's schoolbag and pencil case.

"Brother Qinghe!"

"Tingting is up, right?"

Su Meng hurriedly replied: "Get up, I'm brushing my teeth!" ”

Su Qinghe nodded, and when he saw that Su Meng looked a little nervous, he smiled and said with relief: "Ah Meng, don't be so nervous, Tingting has very good grades, and she has taken a double hundred in the midterm exam!" ”

"I'm just checking to see if there's anything missing, whether the pencil should be sharpened......" Su Meng finished checking the pencil case in his hand and put it back in his bag.

It has been more than seven years since Su Xiaoting was born, but he has been absent for more than half of it, and now it is the first time to experience Su Xiaoting's exam, although he knows that Su Xiaoting's academic performance is very good, but he is still inevitably a little nervous.

Su Qinghe smiled and changed the topic, "There is nothing wrong with work, right?" ”

After New Year's Day, Su Meng officially went to work, because the current Shuangtang strawberries are on the market in batches, his main job content is to follow Xiao Gong and their cars to go out early and return late, to the field and the processing plant to study and supervise.

"There's no problem, Xiao Gong, they and the people in the company take care of me very much, and they are all dedicated to teaching me!" Su Meng replied.

"Learn by heart, and it's up to you how much you can learn from them." Su Qinghe still has expectations for Su Meng, Shuangtang Fruit Company will definitely expand in the future, he hopes that Su Meng can grow up as soon as possible, so that he can take over the work in Nanling Town, liberate Xiao Gong and them, and also share the burden for Zhan Taizhou and Huang Zihua.

Nanling Town is still too remote, it takes four hours to go back and forth from the city to Nanling Town, not to mention that the various places are still scattered, and half of the time is tossed on the road every day.

Su Meng is a native of Nanling Town, and he is a neighbor of the same clan as Su Qinghe, so it is the best choice for him to share the work of Nanling Town.

After chatting a few words, Su Xiaoting came out of the bathroom, and when she saw Su Qinghe, she complained: "Uncle Qinghe, you have to talk about my father, obviously I have checked my schoolbag before going to bed last night, and I have to check it again when I get up today, I am not nervous!" ”

The little girl really didn't give her father face, Su Meng was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to put her hands and feet, so she just kept laughing there.

"It's messy to care, your dad wasn't nervous when he took the exam!" Su Qinghe patted Su Xiaoting's head, "Go and change your shoes, the eldest grandmother has already cooked the porridge, just wait for you to pass." ”

Su Xiaoting quickly went back to the room to change her shoes, and after she came out, she also checked her schoolbag, she was a little worried that Su Meng would forget to put back the stationery she took out when she checked, and only after checking did she put her schoolbag on her back and followed Su Qinghe.

When she returned home, the old lady had already put four bowls of porridge on the dining table to dry, and Bai Zhi and the obedient were still asleep in the room. The weather is cold, Bai Zhi is also in bed, and she usually has to wait until she wakes up obediently, and she doesn't get up with her.

"Ah Meng didn't come over?" The old lady looked at only Su Qinghe and Su Xiaoting, and asked, and Su Meng had a share of the four bowls of porridge she served.

"He'll come over later, let's eat first!" Su Qinghe sat down first.

Su Xiaoting followed closely and explained to the old lady: "My dad hasn't brushed his teeth yet!" ”

Seeing the fresh and hot pork offal porridge in the bowl, the little girl was surprised: "There are so many pork offal!" ”

"This is called the champion and the first porridge, it is one of the specialties of the eldest mother-in-law, and you can take the first place in the exam if you eat it!" Su Qinghe ate porridge and explained.

"Uncle Qinghe, you are lying to children again, how can there be such a magical porridge!" Su Xiaoting laughed, she was not obedient, how could she be deceived by Su Qinghe.

"Okay," Su Qinghe shrugged, "But this is the first porridge, yes, it's the blessing of the eldest grandmother to you." Uncle Qingchi and Uncle Qinghai ate the porridge of the eldest grandmother, and every time they take the exam, they are either the first or the second, don't let the eldest grandmother down! ”

Su Qinghe doesn't mind putting pressure on Su Xiaoting, this little girl is a bully in elementary school, with strong strength, good mentality, and full of confidence. The exam is a very boring thing in her eyes, and if it puts a little pressure on her, she can always be serious, and at least she can check the paper twice more after writing it.

Su Xiaoting said angrily: "That's Uncle Qingchi and Uncle Qinghai, they are smart, of course, I am also very smart, I will definitely come back with a full score!" ”

"Na, you said it yourself, if you don't get a double perfect score at that time, you won't be rewarded if you get a certificate!"

"What reward?" The little girl asked with great interest.

"Money!" Su Qinghe didn't sell it, "A certificate will reward ten yuan, provided that you get a double perfect score!" ”

The old lady also joined in the fun, and said happily: "My requirements are not so high, ten yuan for a certificate, how many can you take back, I will reward you with as many ten yuan, and if you get a full score in the test, you will be rewarded with another hundred yuan!" ”

The exchange of awards for cash rewards started with the old man, and a certificate was rewarded with five yuan. Now that the conditions at home are good, the old lady has money in her hands, and the rewards are much more generous.

Su Xiaoting was eating porridge, and she was already happily thinking about how much money she would get by then.
