Professor Song ate relatively lightly, while Mr. Hu liked salty and a little sour and sweet. Tian Shao took care of the tastes of the two old men and made two favorite dishes for each of them. As for themselves, spicy food was the main one.
It was already dark by the time the dishes were served.
Mr. Hu took a bite of the braised lion's head, nodded and said: "Yes, many of them are not unfamiliar with cooking skills."
Professor Song laughed and scolded: "Xiao Shao came back from school in a hurry to cook for us, and you are still picky. Xiao Shao, don't cook for him next time, just make a pot of white rice porridge for him." .”
Speaking of white rice porridge, Mr. Hu said with a smile: "Xiao Shao gave us a small bag of white rice, and we got up in the middle of the night to make porridge. The delicious smell made my mouth water."
At that time, I had not eaten refined grains for a long time. After a mouthful of 100-meter porridge, I felt that it was the most delicious food in the world. Now that life has improved, I can no longer find that feeling no matter how delicious the food is.
These are not good memories. Tian Shao changed the subject: "Grandpa Hu, are you going to take Sankui with you to the Northeast this time?"
"Why, do you have other arrangements for Sangui?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "That's not true. I think you are too old now to travel back and forth like this. After you get him familiar with the territory, I will leave it to Sankui. Sankui doesn't know the medicinal materials, so we will give them to him. Find someone who understands medicine to go with you."
Mr. Hu shook his head and said: "Xiao Shao, if you don't have enough experience, you will be deceived even if you are an apprentice for more than ten years. If you let Sangui go, you will be deceived and lose your pants."
Sankui was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly continued to work hard.
Sanya lowered her head and pursed her lips, snickering.
Tian Shao frowned and said, "But if you have to run to the northeast every year, your body won't be able to bear it."
Mr. Hu smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. I'll see if I can convince my old guy this time to help you purchase medicinal materials in the future. As long as he agrees, I won't have to run there all the time."
Tian Shao said: "He is short of money, so I think he will agree if we pay him more!"
Mr. Hu nodded and said: "That's what I planned too. Alas, my old man is a bit awkward. I tried to persuade him to separate the families for the children and let the couple live alone. But he didn't want to. He said that it would be fun to live with the children and grandchildren. What's the excitement about? , we quarreled every day over trivial matters, and I stayed there for two days until my head almost exploded."
Sankui said from the side: "Actually, Grandpa Wang's four sons are very filial, and the grandchildren are also good. But with so many people living together, it is inevitable that there will be conflicts."
He thought that when Uncle Li wanted to separate the family, he was very sad, but looking back now, he feels that his father was right. No matter how good the relationship between brothers is, when they get married, they have to take care of their own small families, so it is better to separate the families.
Tian Shao heard this and said: "If there are conflicts, we should separate the family as soon as possible, so that the brotherly relationship will still be there. If we keep suppressing the conflicts without separating the family, and the conflicts accumulate over time, the brothers may turn against each other and become enemies."
Mr. Hu agrees with this very much.
Professor Song could understand Mr. Wang's approach. He said: "When I was young, I didn't think that when I got old, I wanted a lively family. You, old man, must be afraid of being alone, so you want your children and grandchildren to live happily together." "
I didn't feel it when I was busy on weekdays, but when I was alone at home, I felt deserted. This was also the reason why he agreed to come here to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival. Of course, the main reason was that Mr. Hu was here, otherwise he wouldn't bother Tian Shao.
Everyone was talking while eating, and the atmosphere was very cheerful.
After dinner, Sanya put away the dishes and chopsticks. Sankui walked up to Tian Shao and said in a low voice: "Sister, I want to talk to you."
He deliberately avoided everyone saying that he probably didn't want others to know, so Tian Shao took him to the small courtyard at the back.
Standing under the ginkgo tree, Tian Shao asked him what happened.
Sankui lowered his voice and said, "Sister, Ning Lin is with Brother Kun. I didn't know about it until I came back."
Tian Shao was speechless. She still treated it as an important matter and a waste of her time: "Xu Kun is tall, handsome, rich, and has a bunch of younger brothers. It's not surprising that Ning Lin would follow him."
Sankui thought Tian Shao didn't understand, so he explained: "Sister, I, I saw Ning Lin coming out of brother Kun's room. Her clothes were messy at the time. I asked brother Kun when he was going to have a banquet, and he said he wasn't getting married yet."
What he said clearly means that he has no intention of marrying Ning Lin. No matter what Ning Lin’s character is, if you sleep with her but don’t marry her, you are clearly acting like a hooligan!
Tian Shao said: "Xu Kun has been out and about since he was a child, and the people he comes into contact with are from all walks of life. He can see through Ning Lin's moral character at a glance, but he just sees that she is good-looking and wants to take advantage of the bastard. As for getting married,
, he must be looking for a girl with a clean and upright family background and a peaceful life."
A shrewd man knows what kind of wife will be good for him and his children. For someone like Ning Lin, Xu Kun must be just for fun.
Sankui said worriedly: "Sister, Ning Lin is very thoughtful. If Brother Kun abandons her, she will definitely take revenge."
Tian Shao was not worried and said: "As long as Xu Kun gives her enough benefits when the two separate, she will not report it. She is willing to follow Xu Kun just for money."
Nowadays, it is not as open as it was twenty or thirty years ago. Even if you are engaged now, you will be ridiculed by the neighbors if you accidentally become pregnant if you are married to a man. So before marriage, even if you are engaged, girls will talk to their fiancé.
Keep a distance. Of course, responsible men will also keep their boundaries. Like Pei Yue, he will not cross a step even if he is in the same room with her.
Sankui now regrets introducing Ning Lin to Xu Kun. He originally meant to help, but now he is worried that Xu Kun will be harmed by Ning Lin in the future.
Tian Shao smiled and scolded: "They are not three-year-old children. Even if something happens in the future, it has nothing to do with you. Don't bother yourself."
Sankui was silent for a moment and said: "Sister, I don't want to have sex with Xu Kun anymore."
"Is it because of this?"
Sankui said that this was just one of the reasons. He said: "Sister, Brother Kun has made a lot of money in the past six months. Now he takes seven or eight brothers with him whenever he goes out, and he speaks in a loud voice."
Fortunately for him, he has his brother-in-law and sister as his backers, and Xu Kun's attitude towards him remains unchanged. But his attitude towards others is not so good, and he can hear his curses outside.
Tian Shao understood that Xu Kun was a little embarrassed now that he was making money.
Sankui said: "Sister, I think Brother Kun is in danger this afternoon. Sister, Brother Kun is convinced by you, please give him some advice!"
He also tried to persuade her, but Xu Kun didn't listen at all if it wasn't serious enough.
Tian Shao frowned, but Xu Kun helped her a lot, so she still wanted to persuade her: "Tell Xu Kun tomorrow that you have time to come home for a meal this Sunday. If you can't make time on Sunday, then
Come to Beijing University and try the food in the cafeteria.”
