Chapter 335: The Old Man's Habits
Early the next morning, Zhang Chi woke up.
Turning her head to look at Merica next to her, she found that she was sleeping soundly, so she carefully got up from the bed and walked to the cloakroom outside.
It was the first time that there was such a large cloakroom, Zhang Chi was still a little unaccustomed to it, and there were not many new things to move over, so he picked out a piece of clothing and put it on.
When I came downstairs, I saw that the door of the room where the uncle and the aunt lived last night was wide open.
When I walked to the door and looked inside, I saw that the things on the bed were neatly stacked, and at a glance, I knew that the person had gotten up.
So Zhang Chi went to the door.
I didn't feel much when I was in the house, but when I came out, I found that it was drizzling outside.
The rain was not heavy, and there was no need for a poncho, Zhang Chi originally thought that the uncle and the aunt were in the porch outside, or on the terrace, but when he stood at the door and looked at it, he didn't find the two of them.
I was curious where these two people went, and suddenly found that this guy was squatting outside the small fruit forest, stretching out his head and looking at it.
Seeing the appearance of the ink, Zhang Chi guessed where the uncle and aunt were, so he turned his legs and walked towards the small fruit forest he planted casually.
When I got to the outside of the forest, I heard the conversation between the uncle and the aunt inside.
"Don't cut that branch, how many times have I told you, don't cut the branches of good fruit, don't cut them, you just don't listen, the old guy is very ......."
Uncle Gu Ying was admonishing the uncle.
Zhang Youliang said confidently: "What kind of good branch is this, it is completely a bad branch, I can't tell the good branch from the bad branch?" You're going to be looking for trouble, or you're going to do it yourself? ”
Then Zhang Chi heard the click of scissors.
Zhang Chi wanted to laugh when he heard it, the old man and the old lady were together, always complaining and arguing like this.
Zhang Chi heard that if this old man and old lady are like this every day, they can generally live longer, and Zhang Chi feels sorry for the cooperation of the two of them if they don't live past a hundred years old.
Walking in, I saw the uncle and the aunt wearing raincoats, Zhang Chi has a lot of this kind of raincoat here, not bought, but when he bought machinery before, Brother Ma gave it, and he had all kinds of messy things over there, like what paper towels, adult diapers, all of which were tail goods for some refunds.
It's all produced in the factory, but it was returned for various reasons, and in the end I don't know how to drop it into his hands, and then most of it is sold by him and some can't be sold.
The two raincoats are very cheap kinds, transparent, the uncle wears a white one, and the uncle picks a pink one here.
"Uncle, uncle".
Zhang Chi and the two of them said hello.
"Xiao Chi, are you awake?"
When the two saw Zhang Chi coming, they immediately said with a smile.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer, it's still raining early in the morning, what are you doing here to prune?" Zhang Chi said.
Uncle Gu Ying smiled: "We are old and can't sleep for long. Anyway, it's okay, your uncle said that yesterday's branches haven't been cut yet, so I'll follow over and work together."
Zhang Youliang smiled and continued to be busy pruning.
"Your fruit tree has really only been planted for a year, and it looks like it has been two or three years, and this fruit bears fruit, who doesn't think it's a fruit tree that is two or three years old...... Don't say it, you really picked up a good piece of land, what you planted and what grows, you see this little fruit grows."
The uncle was very excited, pruning the branches while boasting about the fruit tree with Zhang Chi.
Zhang Chi said: "Uncle, uncle, don't cut it, come down and rest for a while, I'll make breakfast right away."
"Make breakfast, I'll make it, I'll teach you that bit of your craft," Uncle Zhang Youliang immediately put away the scissors and wanted to climb down the ladder.
While crawling, he also asked, "By the way, what does Xiaomei want to eat?" Let's come to her taste, and do what we want."
Zhang Chi said with a smile: "She doesn't eat meat, if everyone hadn't come last night, she wouldn't have stayed around the table, and she only stayed for about ten minutes, but she couldn't smell meat."
"It's really different from others, this is harmful, and everyone vomits. But she's also good, it's not as uncomfortable as throwing up, the child in her belly is very good, she is here to repay her kindness, not to seek revenge," Aunt Gu Ying said with a smile.
Zhang Chi smiled.
"Is Xiaomei up? You go and ask her what she wants to eat," Zhang Youliang asked.
Zhang Chi hurriedly said: "No, she still has to sleep, she won't open her eyes until half past eight or nine o'clock, let's eat ours first."
"Let's be casual ourselves, what's at home? Forget it, I'll go to the fridge and see for myself".
Saying that, Zhang Youliang climbed down the ladder to see what was in the refrigerator at his nephew's house, so that he could cook by himself.
Zhang Chi wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it for a while, he still forgot it, the uncle and the aunt treated themselves well, as half a son, the old people are like this, try their best to help the juniors, if you don't let it, it will seem to be raw.
So Zhang Chi picked up the ladder and prepared to go back to the house with the uncle.
Zhang Youliang saw it and said, "Put the ladder here, I'll use it after dinner."
"If you don't cut it today, will you be able to do it? I'll cut it myself," Zhang Chi said with a wry smile.
Zhang Youliang said: "What do you cut, what will you cut, don't cut it like a dog, cut a good fruit tree, okay, don't be verbose."
So Zhang Chi had to put the ladder down again.
Back in the house, Zhang Youliang looked at the refrigerator, then thought for a while and said, "Why don't we mix the gnocchi soup and eat it?" ”
Pimple soup?
Everyone doesn't know if they have eaten or not, in fact, it is to add water to the flour, but the water can not be too much, too much is the batter, add less water, let the noodles be stirred into small noodles, so pour them into the pot and cook, add green vegetables, some people also like to add bean sprouts and the like, put salt and monosodium glutamate or something, and you can eat it after it is cooked.
Zhang Chi used to eat when he was in his hometown, because the situation at home was not very good at that time, so he used just noodles to save money, and he was almost a frequent visitor to the stove in every household in the village.
"Yes, yes!"
Zhang Chi didn't really want to eat this thing, but the uncle's eyes lit up when he mentioned the pimple soup, which really made Zhang Chi unable to say that I didn't want to eat it.
The aunt pouted when she heard this: "Didn't you eat enough of this thing when your family was poor?" The next noodle is better than this one."
"Do you want to eat it?" Zhang Youliang looked at his wife, and there was a bit of a request in his eyes.
Uncle Gu Ying saw it and said: "If you want to eat, you can eat it, I haven't eaten it for a long time, I also want to eat a bowl, but don't make it too thick, it's good to make it one by one, the soup should be clear, don't make it like paste."
Uncle said happily: "No problem! ”
So the joy began to get busy.
Zhang Chi is going to help.
Zhang Youliang pushed his nephew away: "You go while playing!" ”
"Okay, don't stretch out your hand, he can do this little job, how old do you think your uncle is, young" Gu Ying called his nephew over with a smile.
As soon as Gu Ying sat down, the ink came over.
Gu Ying played with Ink, from Zhang Chi's point of view, what Ink enjoyed was full of love from her grandmothers, and after a while, Aunt Gu Ying called Ink from ink to a vulgar nickname such as Little Obedient and Little Baby.
Then it's close to the face and the head, which is called a busy job.
was so busy that Zhang Chi couldn't stand it anymore, and now he couldn't intervene in cooking, and it seemed that his aunt was not interested in chatting now, so Zhang Chi had to go upstairs.
Before the daughter-in-law got up, Zhang Chi had to plunge into his study, sit on the chair and touch here, wipe here, and suddenly found that there was a big house, but he had nothing to do now.
"It's still idle to live in a big house!"
Zhang Chi scratched his head, looking like he didn't know how to say this.
It's okay to go on the Internet, Zhang Chi is not good at tweeting or anything like that, he never leaves too many personal things on the Internet, and he doesn't use social media often, even if he uses it, it's just to contact relatives and friends, and rarely say that he makes a netizen to do tricks or something.
So Zhang Chi also feels a little bored on the Internet, he doesn't like to share his life with others, so he naturally belongs to a character who is out of touch with the times, so there are not many people on the Internet who pay attention to him.
If you want to come and go, just make a video with your family.
As a result, I dialed my mother's number, but my mother didn't answer at all, and I called my sister, and my sister didn't answer, as if everyone suddenly made an appointment today.
After staying up for a while, I heard a voice at the door.
When I turned my head, I found that my aunt had come to the door, and there was ink still standing at her feet, and the sneaky guy still hid his head behind the wall, like a thief at home.
"It's time to eat!"
"Uncle, it's okay to be louder, the sound insulation effect of this room is very good, the normal sound on your side, Merica can't hear it, unless you shout at the top of your voice" Zhang Chi said with a smile.
Aunt Gu Ying smiled: "Aren't I afraid of arguing with Xiaomei."
"Okay, your uncle has cooked the meal, let you go down and eat."
Zhang Chi nodded when he heard this, and followed his aunt downstairs.
When I arrived at the dining room downstairs, I found that the bowl had been arranged, the side dishes had been prepared, and the chopsticks and spoons were placed on the edge of the bowl, and Zhang Chi could eat as long as he sat down.
"How do I feel that as soon as you two come, I will become a landlord and a rich man, you see that I don't even need to take chopsticks" Zhang Chi said with a smile.
"If you are a landlord's old wealth, then the landlord's old wealth is too wasteful, and people's enjoyment is not like this" Zhang Youliang said.
Gu Ying listened and said, "It seems that you have seen the old wealth of the former landlord."
"I haven't seen it, but I've seen it in the movie."
"You still kill people every day in the movie, how many people have you seen in your life?"
The two started again.
Zhang Chi smiled and didn't answer, lowered his head and sucked a bowl of pimple soup, and found that the taste was fresh, the salt taste was just right, and there was a whole poached egg in the soup.
This poached egg is really boiled, there is no egg flower in the bowl, with the uncle's craftsmanship, it must be an egg in the soup pot, it can't be another pot, and he doesn't have this idle effort.
That's the craft.
