Chapter 25 My daughter-in-law is better
Su Xiao'e listened to Xu Xiaowan's words, and a smile appeared on her face.
After a while, the smell of food was heard.
I saw Zhang Qinfen and Xu Shaohong walking in with dishes.
When all the dishes were ready, everyone sat down at the table.
Zhang Qinfen took the bowl, picked a chicken leg and put it in the bowl, and then made a rabbit leg and put it in the bowl, and brought it to Su Xiao'e together.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't say you, this Xiao'e hurt her ribs, not her legs, and everyone said that what to eat and what to make up, you didn't pick the right place."
Xu Shaohong said, and hurriedly sandwiched the other leg of the chicken into his daughter's bowl, for fear that it would be gone if it was too late.
Zhang Qinfen didn't care about Xu Shaohong's words, but came to Su Xiao'e, took out the chicken leg and handed it to Su Xiao'e.
"Mom, I'll do it myself, my hands are fine."
"But ......"
"Don't worry, when you're done eating, you can help me get some water to wash my hands."
Zhang Qinfen thought about it, but this chicken leg and rabbit leg are easier to gnaw on by herself.
Today's meal is still very rich, in addition to the pheasants and rabbits that Xu Jianshe brought back, there are also various flavors of zongzi wrapped by Su Xiao'e, in addition to these, peas, cabbage and eggplant grown in the vegetable field are all vegetables that are often eaten in season.
I have to say that Zhang Qinfen's cooking skills are still good, and after a few dishes, everyone eats with a mouth full of oil.
In this era when everyone can't eat enough, there are still very few people who can eat meat like this.
"Construction, you're married, so you don't plan to come to the city to find some work, and you're still like a mud leg, digging in the dirt all day long?"
Xu Shaohong put a piece of chicken in his mouth and asked Xu Jianshe as he chewed.
Xu Jianshe finished the food in his mouth slowly and methodically, and then said to Xu Shaohong:
"I think that's good."
"You are always unstable like this, if you want to find a job, I will ask Youlin to help you find it, in the city, even if you are a security guard, it is better than you in the village."
Xu Shaohong said as she spoke, her eyes and attitude were still high.
It's like finding a job like a security guard for Xu Jianjian, and Xu Jianshe is still promoted.
"No need."
"I'll just say you're brainless, what you don't need to go to the city is a great unity, which is like you, if you encounter a little famine year, there will be no grain in the field."
Xu Shaohong's words woke up Su Xiao'e again.
It's been a long time since it rained, and maybe this year will be a year of famine.
The plan to stock up on some grain mentioned earlier seems to be ahead of schedule.
Over there, Xu Shaohong was chattering while eating.
"Also, Xiaowan, you're a big girl, it's time to talk about your mother-in-law's family, I'll tell you, but don't look for it in the countryside, if you want to find it, you can find it in the city, go to work and get paid, don't mention how leisurely, then you only need to cook at home and take care of the children, and you don't have to do anything."
Xu Xiaowan was originally only over sixteen years old, and she had not yet reached the age of marriage, but because everyone generally got married earlier at this time, many families had a wedding in advance, and when the age was reached, they went to the county to get a certificate.
At this time, Xu Xiaowan heard Xu Shaohong say this, and her face turned red with shame.
"Auntie, what are you talking about, I'm still young."
"What a small thing, if you toss a few more years and get older, the boys in the city won't look down on you."
"If you can't look down on it, you can't look down on it, anyway, I don't want to marry in the city."
"Hey, it's really a dou who can't hold up the wall, so do you have to stay in the countryside?"
Su Xiao'e was listening to Xu Shaohong's words and eating at the same time, and after hearing her words to Xu Xiaowan, Su Xiao'e felt uncomfortable in her heart instantly.
"Auntie, Xiaowan is still young, besides, now that the college entrance examination has resumed, Xiaowan will go back to the university entrance examination, so she is not in a hurry to get married."
"Just her? Take the university entrance examination, don't talk about laughing to death, do you think this university is so easy to get into? β
Xu Shaohong looked at Xu Xiaowan with disdain, and couldn't help but open her mouth to strike.
Su Xiao'e didn't back down, and replied directly:
"Yes, some people are stupid and naturally think that it is difficult to get into college, but Xiaowan is different, she is talented and intelligent, and she is a good material for learning."
"Hmph......" Xu Shaohong snorted coldly, his face full of disbelief: "Then I want to see how powerful this piece of learning material can be." β
Xu Xiaowan was blushing and blue by what Xu Shaohong said, but she also knew that Su Xiao'e was standing up for herself, and she was not in a hurry to refute her words.
After a meal, several people were not very happy, only Xu Shaohong and Xu Jianshe were drinking sullen wine on the side, listening to the ridicule of several people at the table.
After the meal was over, Xu Shaohong was finally leaving.
Before leaving, Tang Xiaoyan looked at Xu Jianshe who was chopping firewood in the yard with a reluctant face.
"Cousinβ"
"Hmm."
Xu Jianshe snorted coldly, and with an axe, the firewood was split in half.
"I'm going home."
"Hmm."
"Cousin, I'll miss you,"
Tang Xiaoyan was finally dragged out of the door of the Xu family by Xu Shaohong reluctantly.
When Xu Shaohong's mother and daughter left, Zhang Qinfen said to Xu Jianjian, who was chopping firewood:
"How do you feel about Xiaoyan?"
"What?"
"What do you think of Xiaoyan?"
Zhang Qinfen feels that her son is really elm pimple sometimes, so does he have to be so careful in questioning?
"Okay."
"What about comparing it to Xiao'e?"
"Mom, what the hell are you asking?"
Xu Jianshe finally raised his head and looked at Zhang Qinfen.
Zhang Qinfen sometimes panics when she is watched by her son, as if whatever she thinks in her heart can be seen through by him at a glance.
"I mean, Xiaoyan is better than Xiao'e?"
"Naturally, it's my daughter-in-law."
After Xu Jianshe finished saying this, he lowered his head and continued to chop firewood.
After getting Xu Jianjian's answer, Zhang Qinfen's heart that had been hanging finally relaxed.
She was afraid that Xu Jianshe would hurt her daughter-in-law because of Tang Xiaoyan's entanglement.
How good this Xiao'e is, she is beautiful, she can make money, and she is filial to her two people.
The more she looked at this Zhang Qinfen, the more she liked it in her heart.
"After that, Xiao Yan came. You hide a little, save the time Xiao'e sees the taste. β
"Oh."
It's another short word, and Zhang Qinfen can't tell if he heard the construction in the end.
But she didn't dare to continue asking, for fear that Xu Jianshe would be annoyed later, and she would directly ignore herself.
On Su Xiao'e's side, since she said at the dinner table that she wanted Xu Xiaowan to continue to go to school, she began to think about it in her heart.
It's just that the cost of going to school is not a small amount after all, and the money in hand now is only enough for one year's tuition, plus all aspects of room and board, it may be a little stretched at that time.
