Chapter 216: We Are Family

Zhou Yi came back from work and saw that the big dining table in the hall was full of delicacies, and his eyes widened in surprise, "Daughter-in-law, what day is today?" ”

"It's your birthday, have you forgotten? I read that it is written on the marriage certificate, isn't it right? Even if it's not right, we can make today your birthday in the future. Song Xi brought the brown sugar cake to Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and hugged Song Xi, his cheeks were buried in Song Xi's hair, a faint fragrance lingered on the tip of his nose, and he took a deep breath greedily, "Daughter-in-law, thank you." ”

Song Xi knew that Zhou Yi must be uncomfortable in his heart.

On someone else's son's birthday, there will be more or less an egg.

But his mother left him when he was four years old, and Zhou Zhongguo is not a careful person, so he shouldn't have celebrated his birthday, right?

"Don't you often say that we are a family, you are welcome? Then why do you say thank you to me? Song Xi reached out and gently patted Zhou Yi's back.

It can be said that the growth environment of the two of them is quite similar, and they both lack love, but they can make up for each other, "Today is your birthday, go call Dad to come over for dinner!" Don't call outsiders, just a good meal for our family of three. ”

"Okay." Zhou Yi pinched Song Xi's chin and kissed him fiercely before he went to call Zhou Zhongguo, and he was not afraid that it would be too late, Zhou Zhongguo had eaten at home.

When Zhou Yi came back with Zhou Zhongguo, he saw two more bottles of wine on the table, and Zhou Zhongguo's face suddenly showed a smile, I don't know where his son and daughter-in-law's wine came from, but it was delicious.

After taking their seats, the three of them ate happily, and Song Xi's favorite food was crayfish and Jiwei shrimp.

Especially after being nourished by the spiritual spring water, the meat is even more delicious and tender, which is irresistible, and she can eat as much as she wants.

Song Xi didn't let Zhou Yi help her peel the shell, after all, eating crayfish is only enjoyable if she peels the shell herself!

The three of them quickly ate the crayfish and Jiwei shrimp, and after the plate was removed, the dinner table was not so crowded, looking at the little daughter-in-law's cheeks bulging like a little squirrel, Zhou Yi felt particularly cute.

With her, this life is worth it.

After the meal, Zhou Zhongguo helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks before going back, while Song Xi and Zhou Yi went to the flower room to rest.

Song Xi went to add food and water to the ducks, hares, and wild boar cubs, and watched the ducks and hares grow bigger and bigger, Song Xi was also a little worried, "Brother Yi, the fat of the ducks and rabbits is too exaggerated." ”

Adult male hemp ducks can only grow to about four catties at most, and hares are only about three to five catties at most, but the hemp ducks and hares nourished by the spiritual spring water are developing in the direction of ten catties, and it is not easy to sell when the time comes, because no one is willing to spend half a month or even a month's salary to buy a whole one.

"Why don't we eat those oversized ones?" Zhou Yi wrapped his arms around Song Xi's waist, resting his chin on her shoulder, looking at the fat guys in the fence.

It's really fat, at least he's never seen it this fat since he was a child.

Song Xi hit Zhou Yi's waist with his elbow back, "You know how to eat." ”

"So what to do?" Zhou Yi's voice became ambiguous, and he was not afraid that these fat guys in front of him would laugh at him, but these fat things were not enlightened and didn't understand anything.

"Forget it, let's talk about it in a few days!" As soon as Song Xi turned around, he directly bumped into his arms.

Song Xi decided to sell the ducks and hares after processing them in the future, just like selling canned snails, selling them one by one, rather than selling the whole one, so it doesn't matter how big it is, the bigger it gets, the more you earn.

However, Song Xi does not plan to process this year, and plans to start this project after the number of ducks and hares has exceeded 1,000.

At that time, Zhou Yi only needs to be responsible for the preliminary preparations, and she will be responsible for cooking and canning.

On this day, the weather was a little gloomy, and it looked like it was going to rain.

When it was almost noon, it was raining heavily, and the whole world was very dark, and the students had no way to go home, so they had to sit in the classroom and wait.

There is no food in the school, so Song Xi can't conjure food out of thin air, so she had to say to the students, "Students, I don't know when the rain will stop, and I can't let everyone sit here hungry all the time, I'll go to the back yard to pick a few pumpkins, steam pumpkins for everyone to eat, and cushion your stomach, how about it?" ”

After the pumpkin was picked before, Song Xi hurriedly planted the second batch, but now the cucumber is still tender, and the old pumpkin has not turned into a golden color, and the taste must be different.

The students were all excited, and they said yes again and again.

Song Xi called the two eldest children to the stove house to do the preliminary preparations, that is, washing the pot, adding water, and lighting the fire, while she held an oil-paper umbrella to pick pumpkins in the pumpkin field behind.

There were a total of twenty-two students, Song Xi picked eleven pumpkins, the small basket could not hold so many, she could only send them back again and again, each time they sent back, the two students took the pumpkins to clean, and then divided them into two, put them in the steamer, until all the pumpkins went into the steamer, and then the fire began to burn.

Half an hour later, the pumpkin was steamed, Song Xi directly brought the steamer to the classroom, and asked everyone to come to the stage to take the pumpkin politely and orderly.

After the students divided the pumpkins, Song Xi took the steamer back to the stove house, and she just cleaned the steamer, kitchen knife, and cutting board with the hot water in the pot, and then hung it on the wooden stake on the wall.

Song Xi was about to take two steamed buns from the supermarket to cushion his stomach when he heard a knock on the door outside.

She thought that the parents had come to pick up the students back, so she hurriedly went over to open the door with an oil-paper umbrella, but when she opened the door, she saw Zhou Yi standing outside wearing a hat and a robe.

Song Xi looked behind Zhou Yi and didn't see anyone else, so he beckoned Zhou Yi to come to the stove house, and was about to ask him why he came, when he saw Zhou Yi take out two lunch boxes from his arms, and the lunch boxes were still wrapped in clothes, so that the food could be kept warm for a while.

"Brother Yi, you ......" Song Xi didn't know what to say about him, she was such an adult, would she be hungry?

Zhou Yi opened the lunch box and placed it on the edge of the stove, one was rice and the other was vegetables.

The dish includes stir-fried bacon with green peppers, scrambled eggs with leeks, stir-fried shrimp with celery, shredded potatoes with vinegar, and hot and sour cabbage, and the lunch box is full.

Song Xi took the chopsticks in Zhou Yi's hand, picked up the rice, and found that the rice was pressed very thickly, so he knew what Zhou Yi had in mind, as if it was more fragrant to eat a meal with her.

Song Xi glanced at Zhou Yi helplessly, and then the two of them finished eating the rice and vegetables with one chopstick.
