Chapter 135: A Family
Zhang Chi sent out all the things he brought, and the focus was on the guy Zhang Wen sent.
"What is this kid doing with this unjust money, our health is very good. How are your uncles and aunts doing? How is Xiaowen and Xiaowu's work? Zhang Jiaren asked Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi said: "Okay, the aunt and the uncle are in good health, they still run the small restaurant, and the business is also very good, and they are about to become time-honored brands in the small town." Brother Dawen is also very good, he is about to get married, and Brother Xiaowu is now starting a company by himself, which is not bad, not as blind as before.
Everyone is waiting for you to go to my side during the summer vacation this year."
"That's good, that's good," Zhang Jiaren said with a smile.
Zhang Chi remembered one thing, opened his mouth and asked, "Master, where can I borrow a car around here?" ”
"What are you borrowing a car for?" Zhang Youpeng looked at his son curiously with a questioning expression.
Zhang Chi said: "What else can I do, naturally I went to pull beef, I asked someone to bring a batch of beef over, all of which were slaughtered by home-raised cattle, and now it is estimated that it is going through the customs, and I will take the beef back in two days."
Zhang Chi's beef is now in the gourd, but he can't say this, so he has to make an excuse to see when it is appropriate to drive the car to 'pick up' the beef back.
Zhang Youpeng thought for a while and said: "Where to borrow a car here, if you want to borrow a car, you can only borrow your sister's house, call and ask later, and see when your sister is free."
"If it's bigger, it's better to use a small truck," Zhang Chi said.
"Pick-up van? Then your sister's family definitely doesn't," Zhang Jiaren said.
Zhang Chi thought for a while and asked, "Dad, don't you have a driver's license, why don't you buy a pickup truck to drive?" ”
"What to do with that money, I don't go anywhere here, that is, to work in the company or something......."
Zhang Chi heard this and looked at the expression on his father's face and knew that his own Lao Tzu was duplicitous, and if he didn't get a driver's license, he would definitely have itchy hands, and Zhang Youpeng was the same.
Although he hadn't driven much of a car, he actually wanted to drive it, but he was afraid that he would drive someone else's car and break someone else's car.
Even if he was driving his daughter's car, he was careful and careful, and after driving a few times, he found that he was afraid of bumping into it, and his whole body was nervous, so it was better not to drive.
"Then it's decided, let's go see the car tomorrow, and when I go home, I can have a car to drive," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
"You don't have to buy it, what are you going to do with it, our family doesn't usually go anywhere......," Li Xiumei said immediately.
His wife's words made Zhang Youpeng smile dryly.
Originally, Zhang Chi said this just on his lips, but now looking at his father's appearance, he made up his mind to buy one, his father wants a car, and if he is a son, he is not capable, so why not buy one for his father now, and besides, it will cost at most twenty or thirty thousand US dollars, and he will save a province on his side.
If you don't show filial piety at this time, when will it show it? Waiting for the old man to run out of big things? Isn't that?
"Don't say it, let's go around tomorrow, just decide which one we like, I'll have the final say on this matter," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
Li Xiumei listened and said: "You kid, you spend a lot of money, where do you use this thing at home."
At this time, Zhang Youpeng whispered: "It's not impossible, everyone in the neighborhood has a car, so it's not like a word if our family doesn't have it."
Li Xiumei's eyes glared: "You talk a lot."
Zhang Youpeng was silent, but a smile appeared on his face.
Zhang Chi said: "Okay, Mom, don't talk about it, this matter is settled, your son and I are making money, the expensive ones can't afford to buy, and the car of 200,000 yuan is no problem at all."
"How can I let you out, we will pay for it" Li Xiumei saw that her son was so resolute, and thought for a while and said.
The four old people usually don't have much money at home, and the meat and vegetables they eat are solved by themselves, not to mention the small vegetable patch outside, that is, the vegetables produced in the small vegetable garden on the side of the yard, which is enough for four people to eat for a year.
Therefore, Zhang Youpeng and Li Xiumei saved almost every cent of the money they earned from working in a nearby greenhouse, which was originally intended to be used by Zhang Chi when he got married, but now he saw that his son didn't seem to need it much, so he decided to take it out to buy a car.
Zhang Chi patted his thigh: "No, no, your money is saved, in case there is anything urgent, take it out, and I will give the money to the car."
Seeing what his mother was going to say, Zhang Chi immediately said: "Mom, this matter is so decided, otherwise what would you do to raise your son, wouldn't you just contribute at this time."
"You kid!" Li Xiumei couldn't grind her son, so she had to complain.
decided to buy a car, and after a while, Zhang Youpeng took out his mobile phone and began to flip through it on the Internet.
Zhang Chi stretched out his head to look at it and asked, "Dad, you can do it, this net is silkier than Uncle and them."
"He, I don't know how long I've been watching, but I finally saw it today," Li Xiumei said with a smile.
The family was talking about the car, and grandma Miao Guifang had already cooked the noodles, so she didn't call her grandson into the kitchen to eat, but brought the noodle bowl directly into the hall.
"Xiumei, hurry up and open the door"
The old lady stood at the door and shouted to her daughter-in-law to open the door.
When Zhang Chi saw it, he immediately stood up and trotted in front of his mother to open the door for his grandmother.
"Grandma, you're feeding pigs!"
As soon as he saw the noodles given by his grandmother, Zhang Chi was a little dumbfounded, because he saw that his grandmother directly held a soup pot.
What a big bowl of noodles!
Zhang Chi estimated that he had enough to eat for two of these estimates, the big soup pot was almost twenty centimeters long, ten centimeters deep, think about it, there was half a bowl of noodles left in such a big thing, and it would take at least half a catty of noodles to cook so much.
In addition to the noodles, there are also pork liver, skin belly, two poached eggs, and the most is chicken nuggets, which are full of noodles and are about to be piled up.
And it's all good meat with meat, just by a glance, Zhang Chi found that the chicken's two thighs are estimated to be all there, except for the two chicken thighs, there is also breast, as for the chicken head and neck and the like, I don't see anything at all, as if this dead chicken didn't grow that thing.
"Eat slowly, a big guy can't finish this little thing?"
Miao Guifang said with a smile.
Li Xiumei glanced at it and said to her son: "Your grandmother can't wait to pile all the edible food in the house, eat it quickly."
Zhang Chi stretched out his hand and took the bowl, carried it into the house, found a small bench and sat down, used the bench at home as a table to put the soup pot on it, and began to suck.
To be honest, grandma's noodles are of average quality, but half of this kind of noodles is the taste, and half is the heart of the old man's grandson, and when the two are added together, it is the most delicious thing in the world.
A bowl of noodles evoked Zhang Chi's childhood taste memory, and as soon as he entered his mouth, he suddenly felt a taste of home break in.
Suck up, suck up!
Zhang Chi took two sips in a row, and couldn't help but praise: "Grandma, the level of your noodles cooking is as high as several floors, and you must ......queue up every day to run a restaurant."
"If you like it, eat more, if you want garlic, I'll get you two garlic."
Hearing her grandson say that the noodles were delicious, Miao Guifang's smiling eyes were about to narrow.
Turned around and went to the kitchen to get a garlic, the old lady directly pulled a small stool and sat next to her grandson, and began to help Zhang Chi peel the garlic, the garlic was put into the grandson's bowl, and continued to peel it carefully, while peeling the garlic, she looked at the grandson who was gobbling up with a smile.
The old lady peeled it very carefully, and the garlic didn't hurt at all, as if she was afraid that the garlic would hurt the taste and not be worthy of entering the mouth of her own good grandson.
"It's a bit of a lot!" Zhang Chi said.
There are indeed a lot of noodles in the bowl, just half a catty of noodles is already full for one person, not to mention that there are so many side dishes that are all anti-hunger.
Grandma smiled and said, "Silly boy, if you can't eat noodles, you won't eat them, I'll give it to your grandfather later, and you can just eat meat."
For grandma, it is not appropriate for her grandson to give her son leftovers, that is also the meat of her heart, and it is okay to give her husband that, you don't eat the leftovers of your grandson, you don't want to rebel?
Zhang Chi smiled and continued to suck the noodles.
Now Zhang Chi is experiencing his grandmother's emotion that you are hungry, in order to show that the noodles made by his grandmother are delicious, he naturally has to eat a lot as a grandson, or he will not be able to show his filial piety!
But there are really too many noodles, and Zhang Chi's two stomachs can't be reconciled, so his stomach is propped up, and half of the noodles in the bowl are left, half of the noodles and half meat.
"Milk, I really can't eat it, I ate a little bit in the afternoon when I was in the magic capital," Zhang Chi said.
When Miao Guifang heard this, she immediately said: "If you don't eat, you won't eat, don't force yourself to eat."
Saying that, Miao Guifang stood up and put the remaining half bowl of noodles from her grandson on the table.
Originally, Zhang Chi thought that his grandmother was going to give it to his grandfather, but who knew that the old lady turned around and went into the kitchen, took a small bowl over, picked up the good meat, took a pair of fast seeds, and handed the small bowl of meat to his son, and the remaining noodles and bowls with pork liver skin and belly were pushed to her husband Zhang Jiaren.
"It's not healthy to eat less meat when you're old."
After the old lady finished speaking to her wife, she said to her son: "That's yours, eat it, don't throw it into the pot tomorrow when the time comes, this thing won't taste good if you cook it twice."
Zhang Jiaren and Zhang Youpeng, father and son, didn't say much, and each took his own bowl and began to eat. It's normal to do things like this, and it's like this in eight out of ten in the neighborhood.
Book of Hundred Leagues
At this time, the old lady turned around and went into the house to take out two pieces of pastry, and gave the big ones to her daughter-in-law: "Xiumei, let's eat some too."
"Mom, I really can't eat it" Li Xiumei was really full, looked at the pastries handed over by her mother-in-law, and said with a wry smile.
"Eat some mats and wait for a while to sleep".
I don't know if it's a theory invented by the old lady herself, eat some mats and sleep well?
"Mom, people say eat less before going to bed, so you might as well get something to cushion," Li Toumei joked.
Miao Guifang pouted: "Few people who said this have survived me, that health expert died in his forties, and I am still alive and well and can still do heavy work."
Now it's okay, and the family has another supper together.
Not only people, but even the dog in the yard had something to eat tonight, and a few bones that Zhang Youpeng gnawed down were thrown into the yard, even if it was a meal for the dog.
After eating, Li Xiumei and Miao Guifang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law tried on the coat brought back by Zhang Chi, looked in the mirror beautifully, and finally tried it themselves, so they pulled Zhang Youpeng and Zhang Jiaren to try it again.
Talking about spending money, but now when trying on clothes one by one, it's called a happy, Zhang Chi is responsible for praising the good looks on the side at the moment, as for anything else, it must be nothing.
The size of the coat is not so particular, as long as it is not too small, it is no problem to wear it.
