But no matter how many tricks Guaiguai tried, she couldn't delay the time. Especially after Bai Jianan and Su Meng also joined in to help, she became even more weak on her own. Naturally, she couldn't accomplish anything, so she could only sit by the stove and warm herself up.

.

When it got dark, the light rain that had been falling all day had not stopped, so Su Zhiliang and Chen Ping arrived together. This kind of weather had an impact on the business of Chen Ping's barber shop. Most people were reluctant to go out, so business was naturally poor.

A little while ago, so Chen Ping came back earlier these days. However, more people came to see Su Zhiliang for medical treatment. They all had minor ailments such as headaches, fevers, colds, etc. They were not very busy, but they were not as free as before.

.

Chen Ping is a hard-working person who can never stop. As soon as she arrives, she goes into the kitchen to see if there is anything else she needs help with. But after all, she is cooking on the stove, which is naturally easier than cooking. Su Qinghe and Bai Jianan, Su

The three grown men had almost done the work, and there was no other work that needed her help, so she sat by the stove and warmed herself by the fire with the two little ones.

"Auntie, do you have enough income today to pay for gas and electricity?" Su Qinghe asked.

Chen Ping knew that Su Qinghe wanted to persuade her to close the door and rest for a few days. She was very happy, but she smiled and said: "There are fewer people cutting hair these days, but there are only one or two haircuts every day, which is enough for gas and electricity bills."

After eating, I even permed someone’s head today and made a profit.”

Come on, no need to persuade.

Su Qinghe gave up the idea, but Guaiguai asked curiously: "Second wife, what does it mean to have your head permed? Do you want to perm your head with fire?"

"That's definitely not the case!" Su Xiaoting answered before Chen Ping opened her mouth, "How can you burn your hair with fire? It will burn all the hair."

After thinking about it obediently, he thought, yes, and asked again: "Does that mean using boiling water to perm your hair?"

"That's human hair. Are you plucking chicken feathers?" Su Xiaoting replied again.

After failing to say the right thing twice in a row, Guaiguai felt a little embarrassed, so he immediately pursed his lips and asked, "Sister, why are you so nagging!"

"I don't know!" Su Xiaoting answered simply and neatly. Although she would go to Chen Ping's store every evening after school and wait for Su Meng to pick her up after get off work, she had never seen anyone with permed hair.

"I thought you knew, sister." Guaiguai snorted softly, stopped arguing with Su Xiaoting, and asked Chen Ping for the answer, "Second mother-in-law, tell me, sister, she doesn't know."

"Many people get their hair permed and dyed before the Chinese New Year. You will understand when I ask you to go take a look." Chen Ping did not explain, no matter how much she said, it would be better to let Guaiguai take a look at it.

"Then, remember to call me Second Grandma~" Guaiguai agreed happily, then asked with concern, "Second Grandma, are you cold?"

Chen Ping: "Isn't this a fire? Why is it cold?"

Obediently touched Chen Ping's hand. It was neither very warm nor very cold. She retracted her hand reassuringly and said, "I'm just worried that the second mother-in-law will be very cold when the wind blows and the water splashes while driving."

"Guaguai is worried about the second wife, he is such a good boy!" Chen Ping was very relieved and elated. She touched Guaguai's head. The little guy has been in the fire for a while, and his hair is warm. He is really a warm baby.

"Don't worry, my second wife is wearing very warm clothes and a raincoat, so she won't get caught in the rain."

Listening to Guaiguai's silly laughter, Su Qinghe thought that he should just tell Guaiguai and let her help persuade her second mother-in-law. The little guy can talk better than him now.

After waiting for a while for the dishes to be served, the chicken soup on the induction cooker on the dining room table was also cooked. Everyone was given a bowl of fresh and hot chicken soup to warm themselves up. Guaguai didn't want it at first, but when he saw everyone was drinking it, he asked Su to

Qinghe also pretended to be a little bit for her.

Su Qinghe did put a little bit of soup for her, but there was also a big chicken drumstick in the bowl. "Come on, eat the big chicken drumstick. Thank you for your help just now. Thank you for your hard work!"

"You're welcome." Guaiguai waved her hand quickly. In order to eat more delicious food on an empty stomach, she didn't even want to drink chicken soup. How could she eat a big chicken leg now? How many other vegetables could she eat after eating it?<

/p>

"You've already pretended, so just give it a try." Su Qinghe advised.

Guaiguai had an idea and pushed the bowl towards Bai Zhi, "Mom, eat the big chicken drumsticks. You have worked hard to take care of your brother!"

"Okay, give it to me." As she said that, Bai Zhi picked up the big chicken legs with chopsticks and put them in her bowl.

Guaiguai suddenly felt a little distressed. This was her favorite chicken drumstick. Although she gave it to her mother because she wanted to eat more other vegetables, she didn't want to eat it. But her mother just took it and ate it. She felt

I’m so reluctant to let go.

"Why do you keep looking at me like this and don't want me to eat it?" Bai Zhi asked funnyly.

Obediently, she shook her head vigorously, took a spoonful of chicken soup and put it into her mouth. After trying it and finding that it was not hot, she simply let go of the spoon, picked up the bowl like drinking wine, and drank it all in one breath with a proud slurp.

Lin Daiyu only uses a spoon, and I, Guizhishen, have always been so rough and bold.

"Delicious!" Guaiguai shouted, put down the bowl and raised his hand to wipe his mouth, "Waiter, serve!"

"Okay!"

There was not one voice that responded, but several, including men and women, old and young. Su Qinghe was speechless. Why, the role of a shop waiter is about to be snatched up, right?

So the several "waiters" reached a tacit consensus, and each was responsible for the dishes in front of them, one by one. After they were cooked, they would first give the good Miss Ting a chopstick. The adults were not particular about it, and held the bowls.

The old lady didn't say anything when she stood up to eat. Originally, she ate while standing by the side stove.

The two eldest ladies ate until they were full. Before they finished, they leaned against the back of the chair and touched their bulging bellies. They were both wondering why eating on the stove would make them full faster and easier than eating stir-fried vegetables and rice.

Su Qinghe is very happy. The climate has been warm in recent years, and the sun has been much brighter in winter. This year, winter has entered relatively early and smoothly. It is more comfortable to eat on the side stove in such humid and cold weather.

He thinks winter is colder. He remembers that winters were always cold when he was a child. He wore thick clothes to go to and from school every day, and his nose and hands were red from the cold. But he was also very happy. He squeezed in the warm kitchen with his brothers or friends.

Boiling water and simmering sweet potatoes, taking a bite of hot food seems to be more satisfying than usual.

The only regret is that there is no snow here in winter, only continuous rainy days.

After resting for a while, the two sisters felt that they were ready again, and asked the adults to put the cooked meat in their bowls. When Su Xiaoting dipped it in the seasoning, an idea came to her heart, and she secretly put the piece of meat on the table with a wicked smile.

Guaigui said in the bowl, "Sister, I'll give this to you!"

Obediently, he did not doubt that he was there, and he would not refuse anyone who came. If he ate it, he would earn it. But as soon as he put it in her mouth, she immediately spat it out again, sticking out her tongue and taking a big breath.

Su Xiaoting covered her mouth and hummed with a smile, her little shoulders shaking. Her sauce plate was the same as Bai Zhi's. Bai Zhi made it herself, so it was naturally spicy.

Guaiguai was so happy that he forgot about it, otherwise it would have been impossible for Su Xiaoting to trick him so easily. In other words, Su Xiaoting knew Guaiguai so well and was so shrewd that she specially picked the time when Guaiguai was least defensive, trapping him one by one.<
