Like some mothers-in-law in other families, they are strict in control, for fear that their daughter-in-law will not be able to cook rice and stir-fry vegetables or eat secretly, so they hide the grain, rice and noodles in their cabinets and lock them, and personally count the amount before each meal before cooking and then give it to their daughter-in-law to cook.

Zhou's mother didn't do that.

Although the three daughters-in-law are not interested in Xiaomeng's affairs, they usually don't dare to mess around with cooking, let alone eat secretly, so the grain, oil, rice, noodles, eggs and meat at home are all in the kitchen.

There was nothing in this cabinet in the house before, but Xiaomeng only started to increase it after sending her fine grain every half month.

Those things were bought by Xiaomeng for her mother, of course, Zhou's mother had to put them in the cabinet in the house, and she cooked them by herself on weekdays, and no one gave her son, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, and grandchildren.

I was sorry for Xiaomeng's heart for her, and said that I would buy it to honor her.

She also had to lock the cabinet, lest a thief run in and steal it when she was not at home, and she would not die of distress.

Zhou's mother is a smug person who can't hide things, and she can't wait to let the world know how good her daughter is and how happy she is.

As soon as the mother-in-law in the village said that she had looked better and gained a little weight recently, she couldn't help but say that it was because her daughter often sent her fine grains to eat.

She didn't say it, it's too rare.

Therefore, many people in the village know that there is fine grain in her cupboard.

At this time, there was a new sack of sugar, a tube of egg-flavored noodles, and a pound of Fuqiang noodles in the cabinet, and there were still leftovers of the things that Xiaomeng and Jinping came back to get last time, and they were piled up.

Mother Zhou thought about it, took out the canned meat, happily closed the cabinet door and locked it.

She went to the kitchen, and the sweet potato rice at noon had been cooked, the meat slices had been cut, and the vegetables had been washed.

Mother Zhou opened the box of canned meat first, and saw that the pieces of pork belly inside were fat and thin, the sauce was rich in color, and it was shiny, and even the broth inside smelled fragrant.

Mother Zhou couldn't help swallowing her saliva and sighed: "It's worthy of canned meat, and it makes sense to sell it so expensive, it's similar to the braised pork made in a state-run restaurant." ”

She took the bowl and chopsticks, and thought that her daughter said to let her be kind to herself and eat more good ones, so she generously sandwiched three pieces of pork belly and put them in the bowl, and poured some sauce-colored soup into them.

A box of canned meat was almost a third gone, and she painfully closed the lid of the can.

First put this bowl of meat and vegetables in the pot and start a fire to steam, Zhou's mother put the canned meat in the well and chilled it, and put it together with the fish and meat, so as not to turn back and spoil.

During the time when the three daughters-in-law were working, they were all cooking at home, and they usually didn't go to the well to see the canned meat.

Even if she finds out, it doesn't matter, Xiaomeng specially gave her this mother's food, and it is normal that she is not happy to share it with them.

While waiting, Zhou's mother used another pot to fry a sliced parsley and then a green vegetable.

The bowl of pork belly was also steamed, Zhou's mother took it out of the pot, and put a spoonful of sweet potato rice into it, which was instantly dyed by the soup into a sauce color, shiny and very tempting.

Zhou's mother ate directly in the kitchen.

The sweet potato rice was originally a little dry, but it became a lot moist because of the broth, and it was fragrant with meat, and it was even more salty and fragrant in the mouth, and it could be swallowed after a few chews, which was called a satisfaction.

She ate a few bites of rice in a row, and finally saw the three slices of pork belly pressed on the bottom of the bowl, and immediately clamped one piece, as if it were dangling on her heart.

Put it in your mouth to taste the salty and fragrant meat taste, the fat part is slippery, a bite can overflow a lot of oil, the lean part is also stewed soft, not firewood at all, very fragrant.

Zhou's mother slowly tasted the taste, then swallowed it reluctantly, and then mixed a large mouthful of rice to eat.

This canned meat is really as good as those people say. And this canned meat was specially given to her by Xiaomeng to open a small stove to eat, and Zhou's mother was happy when she thought of it.

Just like every time she gets up at night to light the way with a flashlight at night, she will laugh happily when she thinks that this is something that Xiaomeng and her son-in-law specially bought for her.

Zhou's mother ate the three pieces of pork belly and the full sweet potato rice in the bowl, and scraped a few green vegetables to clean the remaining broth on the wall of the bowl and ate it.

The greens, which had been tasteless, have become salty and delicious.

Almost as soon as she finished eating, her sons and daughters-in-law came back with their grandchildren.

The fried celery, shredded pork and green vegetables had already been put on the plate, and she shouted directly: "Da Zhuang, come and serve the dishes and take the bowl out." ”

The two eldest children, Da Zhuang and Lotus, ran out with two dishes and took out the dishes and chopsticks, and Da Zhuang ran back to invite a pot of rice.

Mother Zhou looked satisfied, and took the pair of chopsticks she had just finished eating and put them in the basin next to the well in the yard, and washed them later.

She walked back into the hall.

Tuesday's sister-in-law was reminding her daughter: "Lotus, you seem to have lost a bowl and a pair of chopsticks, go to the kitchen and take it again." ”

A year ago, she might have scolded a long time ago, why are you clumsy, you kid, you can even take a bowl and chopsticks wrong.

Now she knows how to be nice to her daughter, although she can't learn what her mother-in-law does to her sister-in-law, but at least she scolds her without encountering anything.

Lotus also changed a little, she got close to her, she dared to say anything, and she used to do it directly with a stuffy face and without speaking.

Like this, the lotus said: "Mother, I didn't take less, it's the milk that said I don't need to take her share." ”

Mother Zhou came over and heard the two of them talking: "Second daughter-in-law, Lotus is right, I told her to take less of my dishes and chopsticks." I've just eaten it in the kitchen, so you can just eat it. ”

Tuesday's sister-in-law listened to it and said to her daughter: "So that's the case, it's my mother who just misunderstood, let's sit down and eat lotus." ”

When a family starts to eat, there is meat to eat at noon, and whoever has chopsticks is slow, and there will be less meat in their mouths.

Whether it is the three brothers of the Zhou family or the three sisters-in-law of the Zhou family, including the five children, they all told Zhou's mother that they were not surprised by what they had eaten.

The third sister-in-law of the Zhou family was even more happy, and her mother-in-law opened a small stove by herself to eat it first, and this plate of meat was eaten by less people, and more than half of the meat could be eaten in the child's mouth.

Speaking of which, the mother-in-law has also changed a lot.

Since my sister-in-law sent her mother-in-law fine grains every half a month, such as noodles, rich and strong flour, and polished rice, my mother-in-law often opened a small stove for herself, and ate it before they came back from work.

Not to mention them, even sons and grandchildren can't touch them.

Occasionally, when the mother-in-law is in a good mood, she will give some points to the children who help her make her happy.

While everyone was eating, Zhou's mother went back to the room to get the key, opened the cabinet, took a red shrimp crisp and tasted it.

It's so crispy and fragrant, when you bite into it, it's wrapped in sugar filling, and it suddenly overflows with sweetness, and there is a bit of granular taste, like a peanut ground finely, but it's not quite like it, anyway, it's delicious, and it's full of fragrance.

Zhou's mother loves to eat this.

After eating canned meat and rice, it was salty and fragrant, and she would come and eat a sweet red shrimp crisp again, and she was so satisfied that she had tasted all the good tastes.

The handfuls of white rabbit candy and red shrimp crisp that I grabbed in front of Xiaomeng during the day were stuffed into the trouser pockets on both sides, and they suddenly became bulging.

However, there are clothes to help cover it, and it is not conspicuous.

Mother Zhou finally took two white rabbit candies from the sack, held them in her hands, locked the cabinet door, and went out of the room to the hall.

Everyone has eaten almost.

Zhou's mother sat in her usual place of eating and said, "Xiaomeng came here today, and I bought fish, mung beans, and white sugar for help." ”

"Is there any family in the village like us, there is fish and meat to eat every once in a while, and there can be mung bean soup to drink on such a hot day, and the captain's family may not have this day."

"You have to read your little dreams."

The three brothers of the Zhou family should be good, and the little sister has nothing to say to them.

They discussed privately, and when the farm was idle after the autumn harvest, they would pool money to buy some wood and help the little sister make a dresser, but the mirror was not easy to get, and the third said that he would find a way.

The third sister-in-law of the Zhou family was not disgusted when she heard her mother-in-law talk about this, and they were not people without conscience, so they naturally knew how good it was for their sister-in-law to help buy fish and meat.

I still thought, no wonder my mother-in-law opened a small stove at noon today, it turned out that my sister-in-law came in the morning, and she must have sent fine grain to her mother-in-law.

When mothers can be mothers-in-law, they are also very envious, raising a girl is more capable than a son, and they are also filial.

Of course, my own man is also filial to his mother-in-law, but he can't often send fine grains to his mother-in-law like my sister-in-law.

Of course, they only think about these words in their hearts, and if they say it, it will hurt the hearts of their men.

After Zhou's mother finished talking about the matter, she gave the two white rabbit candy in her hand to Da Zhuang and Lotus: "Today I called you in the kitchen to help with the dishes and chopsticks, and Da Zhuang and Lotus came over to help, which is a milk reward for you to eat." ”

Da Zhuang and Lotus took it with a look of surprise: "Thank you, milk." ”

Looking at the white rabbit candy in their hands, they had only seen it at the counter when they went to the supply and marketing cooperatives with their parents before.

I heard the village captain's family Honghong say that it is very sweet and fragrant.

As a result, now, Milk actually gave them a white rabbit candy.

The other three children looked at Da Zhuang and Lotus with envy.

Especially the youngest Daquan, looking at the milk with blank eyes: "Milk, I want to eat it too." ”

Zhou's mother is not polite: "Milk, this is a good mood to reward Da Zhuang and Lotus to help the milk work, Daquan You don't work for the milk, there is no White Rabbit candy to eat." ”

Seeing that her son was deflated and wanted to make trouble, Wednesday's sister-in-law hurriedly grabbed his hand and patted it: "Daquan, you are obedient, you have to be reasonable, just now if you run to help serve the dishes and get the bowl, the milk will definitely give you White Rabbit candy." Your eldest brother and sister lotus did these things, and the milk rewarded them with food. ”

Daquan forcibly held back the tears that were about to overflow from the corners of his eyes, closed his mouth that was already open to cry, and his brain turned quickly: "But...... I'm still young, I can't hold the dishes and chopsticks, I can't serve the food, and I'll fall. ”

Sister-in-law on Wednesday sometimes has to be choked by this child, Daquan is indeed still young, and the first four children in the family will help their mother-in-law work, especially the two largest.

Zhou's mother listened and said, "Daquan, don't worry, the five children all listen to the milk." ”

Whether it was Da Zhuang and Lotus who got the White Rabbit Candy, or the three children who didn't get the White Rabbit Candy, their eyes were shining and looking at the milk.

Zhou's mother: "In the future, you will help the milk work normally, and when the milk is happy, I will reward you with a white rabbit candy, or red shrimp crisp, the red shrimp crisp is also very fragrant." ”

"Daquan is still young and can't help with the work, so help the milk hammer shoulder and neck, if the milk is comfortable and in a good mood, you will also be rewarded with a white rabbit candy or red shrimp crisp."

This trick Zhou's mother also thought of temporarily, Daquan was too small to work, and she was afraid that the dishes, chopsticks and meals would be lost.

But he has all four children, and he can't do it if he doesn't.

This trick is still what Zhou's mother heard from her daughter before, and she called the three children to rub it at her mother-in-law's house.

Thinking that she had an old waist bone and could have a little doll to help hammer it down, Zhou's mother's smile became more and more obvious.

As soon as these words came out, the five children almost burst into laughter.

White Rabbit Candy!

Red shrimp crisp!

They couldn't help but swallow.

Da Zhuang reacted the fastest: "Milk, I'll clean up the table at noon." ”

Lotus also said, "I'll come and wash the dishes later." ”

The osmanthus of the big house also said: "There are so many dishes and chopsticks at home, I can wash them with Sister Lotus." ”

Da Qiang's brain in the second room moved: "I sweep and mop the floor at home in the afternoon." ”

Daquan raised his little hand and said excitedly: "I, me, me!" I'll help the pinch! ”

The three brothers of the Zhou family looked at their children with amusement, and the attraction of candy to children was really great.

The third sister-in-law of the Zhou family figured it out, and today the sister-in-law must have returned the white rabbit candy and red shrimp crisp to her mother-in-law, which are all good things sold by the supply and marketing cooperative, and they are more expensive than the colored candy.
