Chapter 321 and the porridge
January 14th, the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month.
The weather was already bitingly cold. In the early morning, Su Qinghe entered the kitchen wearing a coat. The old lady in a simple colorful Tang suit and cotton-padded jacket was already busy.
Seeing Su Qinghe, the old lady turned her head and said, "Go and ask Tingting to come over. The porridge is almost ready."
Su Qinghe leaned over, took a deep breath, and inhaled the rising heat into his body, "I haven't eaten the Jidi porridge you made for a long time. I remember when I was studying, you would always cook a pot every time for the final exam.
Delicious Jidi porridge."
"It's because you don't eat enough, but Achi, Ahai, and the others don't eat too much!" The old lady looked at Su Qinghe lovingly. Even though she only saw Guaiguai in her eyes now, and she was very obedient to Guaiguai, in her heart, she always felt something was wrong.
I can't express my pity for Su Qinghe, "If you like to eat, I will cook it for you every day!"
Su Qinghe shook his head and said: "No need. If you eat it every day, there will be no sense of ritual."
"What's not a ritual, isn't it just a serving of porridge!" The old lady said casually, but the wrinkles on her face were piled up, and her eyes were full of joy.
"How can this be a simple porridge? This is the porridge you made by your own hands, and you can get the first place in the exam after eating it!" Su Qinghe enthusiastically boasted, "This porridge cooked by others is even worse than the porridge cooked by others."
It doesn’t have this effect!”
"This is not an exaggeration. It's all about your own efforts!" The old lady tapped Su Qinghe's head gently, and the smile on her face became even bigger, "Okay, hurry up and call Tingting!"
Jidi porridge is actually pig offal porridge, but it has more ingredients and several more auxiliary ingredients than the usual pig offal porridge.
Because of the connotation of Jidi porridge, whenever Su Qinghe and his brothers had final exams, the old lady would always order pork offal with the pork guy in advance, get up early and cook a big pot of Jidi porridge, and seek good luck.
When Su Qingchi and Su Qinghai were in junior high school, the old lady would ask Su Zhiliang to deliver them to them early in the morning. When they were in high school in the county, the old lady was beyond her reach, but she also asked Su Yuejia to cook a pot for them.
Deliver the porridge.
Today, Su Xiaoting has her final exam, so the old lady made another pot of Jidi porridge to express her high hopes for Su Xiaoting.
When Su Qinghe arrived at Su Xiaoting's house, her house was already brightly lit and the courtyard door was open. Su Qinghe pushed the door open and saw Su Meng checking Su Xiaoting's schoolbag and pencil case.
"Brother Qinghe!"
"Tingting, please wake up"
Su Meng quickly replied: "I'm up and brushing my teeth!"
Su Qinghe nodded. Seeing that Su Meng looked a little nervous, he smiled and comforted: "Ameng, don't be so nervous. Tingting's grades are very good. She scored double 100 in the midterm exam!"
"I'm just checking to see if there's anything missing, and whether the pencil needs to be sharpened..." Su Meng finished checking the pencil case in his hand and put it back into his schoolbag.
It has been more than seven years since Su Xiaoting was born, but he has been absent for more than half of it. This is the first time he has experienced Su Xiaoting's exam. Although he knows that Su Xiaoting's academic performance is very good, he is still a little nervous.
Su Qinghe smiled and changed the subject, "There's nothing wrong with work matters, right?"
After New Year's Day, Su Meng officially went to work. Since Shuangtang strawberries are currently on the market in batches, his main job content is to follow Xiao Gong and their cars to leave early and return late, and go to the fields and processing plants to study and supervise.
"It's no problem. Engineer Xiao and the other people in the company take good care of me and teach me with all their heart!" Su Meng replied.
"Study hard. How much you can learn from them depends on you." Su Qinghe still has expectations for Su Meng. Shuangtang Fruit Company will definitely expand in the future. He hopes that Su Meng can grow up as soon as possible.
, so that he can take over the work in Nanling Town, liberate Xiao Gong and others, and also share the burden for Zhan Taizhou and Huang Zihua.
Nanling Town is still too remote. It takes four hours to go back and forth from the city to Nanling Town, not to mention that the places are still scattered. Half of the time every day is spent on the road.
Su Meng is a native of Nanling Town, and is a neighbor of the same clan as Su Qinghe. He is the best choice to share the work of Nanling Town.
After chatting for a few words, Su Xiaoting came out of the bathroom. When she saw Su Qinghe, she complained: "Uncle Qinghe, you have to talk to my father. He obviously checked my schoolbag before going to bed last night. Today
I have to check it again when I get up, I’m not nervous!”
The little girl really didn't give her father face. Su Meng was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to let go of his hands and feet, and just kept laughing.
"Concern leads to chaos. Your father was not nervous when he took the exam!" Su Qinghe patted Su Xiaoting's head, "Go and change your shoes quickly. Grandma has already cooked the porridge and is waiting for you to come over."

Su Xiaoting quickly went back to the room and changed her shoes. After she came out, she also checked her schoolbag. She was a little worried that Su Meng would forget to put back the stationery he took out during the inspection. After checking, she put her schoolbag back on and followed Su Qinghe.<

When she got home, the old lady had already filled four bowls of porridge and put them on the dining table to dry. Bai Zhi and Guai Guai were still sleeping in the room. The weather was cold, and Bai Zhi also stayed in bed. She usually had to wait until Guai Guai woke up before she could
Get up with Guaiguai.
"Ah Meng didn't come here," the old lady looked at Su Qinghe and Su Xiaoting and asked. Of the four bowls of porridge she served, Su Meng had one.
"He will come over later and let us eat first!" Su Qinghe sat down first.
Su Xiaoting followed closely and explained to the old lady: "My dad hasn't brushed his teeth yet!"
Seeing the fresh and hot pig offal porridge in the bowl, the little girl was surprised and said: "A lot of pig offal!"
"This is called Zhuangyuan Jidi Porridge. It is one of Grand Pozu's specialties. If you eat it, you can get the first place in the exam!" Su Qinghe explained while eating the porridge.
"Uncle Qinghe, you are lying to children again. How could there be such a magical porridge!" Su Xiaoting laughed. She was not a good girl, so how could she be deceived by Su Qinghe.
"Okay," Su Qinghe shrugged, "but this is Jidi porridge, it's the blessing given to you by Great Pozu. Uncle Qingchi, Uncle Qinghai and the others ate Grandpozu's Jidi porridge every time they took the exam.
The first place in the exam is the second place, don’t let Grandma Zu down!"
Su Qinghe doesn't mind putting pressure on Su Xiaoting. This little girl is the best in elementary school. She is strong, has a good attitude, and is full of confidence. Exams are a boring thing in her eyes. If you put some pressure on her, she will always be serious.
Point, at least you can check the paper twice more after you finish writing it.
Su Xiaoting said proudly: "That's Uncle Qingchi, Uncle Qinghai and the others are smart. Of course, I am also smart. I will definitely get full marks!"
"Now, you said it yourself. If you don't get double perfect scores by then, you won't get a reward even if you get a certificate!"
"What reward?" the little girl asked with interest.
"Money!" Su Qinghe said without hesitation, "A certificate will reward you with ten yuan. The premise is that you have to get double perfect scores!"
The old lady also joined in the fun and said cheerfully: "My requirements are not that high. A certificate costs ten yuan. I will reward you with as many ten yuan as you can bring back. If you get a perfect score in the exam, I will reward you with another hundred yuan!"<
/p>
The old man started exchanging certificates for cash rewards, and each certificate was worth five yuan. Now that the family conditions are better, the old lady has money, and the rewards are much more generous.
Chapter completed!
