"Hey, okay then," Bai Lu sighed, "then wait until the fourth day of the Lunar New Year..."
After saying that, she put the wrapped chicken back on the plate and said to Wennian: "If you can't take it to the dormitory, you can eat it at home. Eat more meat quickly. I put salt in the chicken according to the method your Aunt Huang said."
, ginger and local rice wine, it tastes really good.”
"Third brother, please try it quickly. This is the breakfast my mother made for you when she got up early." Jinbao said.
Su Wennian smiled and nodded, took the chopsticks his mother handed him, picked up a piece of chicken and tasted it.
"How is it? Third brother, is this chicken delicious?" Su Xiaosi asked curiously and said, "We went to the market to sell chicken before, and a chef from Guangzhou said that this chicken is Qingyuan chicken and it is top quality.
, I’ve kept it for so long and I haven’t eaten it yet.”
Su Wennian praised: "This chicken is particularly fresh and sweet, and it tastes better than any chicken I have eaten before!"
After that, he said to the others: "Why are you watching me eat? Try it quickly, it's really delicious."
Bai Lu smiled and said, "Yes, why are you staring at Wen Nian? Move your chopsticks quickly, Nan Bing, please try our own chicken."
Everyone picked up their chopsticks and finished a plate of chicken with three strokes, five and two strokes, and ate up all the leek pancakes.
After breakfast, Su Wennian took nothing with him and rode his bicycle back to town.
"Originally, I prepared a bag of peanuts, candies and red dates for Wennian, but he didn't want anything..."
"Didn't Wen Nian say that the Spring Festival is strictly controlled? When these three days have passed, I will take these to his dormitory," Su Jianmin said, "I don't believe that on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, everyone can't eat well and remember the bitter memories.
Three days is enough."
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Su Jianmin took Xiaobai out of the mule shed and asked Nan Bing if he wanted to go to the market together.
"Of course the second brother should go!" Jinbao said with a smile, "The market is so lively, and the second brother has never been there."
As she spoke, she pulled her second brother out, told about the things sold in the market, and also mentioned the delicious beef offal soup.
"Hearing your praise, I really want to taste the beef offal soup." Su Nanbing said with a smile.
When the two brothers and sisters were talking, Su Xiaowu in the room let out a loud "Ah" and said loudly: "Jiang Yun, your pants..."
When Jiang Yun helped Bai Lu get the soy sauce from the cupboard, because his pants were too tight and too small, he stretched them out a little, and there was a hole in the back of the pants where the patch had been sewn, which happened to be visible to Xiao Wu.
Jiang Yun's face immediately turned red, he covered his butt and pressed his back against the wall.
"Jiang Yun, your pants are too small," Bai Lu noticed that Jiang Yun's pants didn't fit and said, "I need to make another pair of pants."
"No," Jiang Yun shook his head, "I'll just ask my mother to patch it up with thread later."
Hearing the noise in the house, Huang Yuzhu, who was collecting clothes in the yard, hurriedly walked into the kitchen.
"What's wrong?" she asked, "Are your pants torn again?"
Jiang Yun apologized: "Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention just now and burst it again. I will be more careful next time and promise not to wear my pants again."
"Yuzhu, when did Jiang Yun make these pants?" Bai Lu asked.
Huang Yuzhu thought for a while and said: "It's been more than a year, almost two years. Hey, this child is growing up too fast. I deliberately made my pants a lot bigger at that time, thinking that they could last at least three years, but they didn't."
To think he wore it out so quickly."
"Jiang Yun is growing tall at this age. It's good to be able to wear a pair of trousers for two years. Look, his trouser legs are a bit too short..." Bai Lu took out the cloth tickets placed in the iron box in the drawer.
He said, "At the end of the year, Captain Luo distributed cloth tickets to every household. No one in my family wants to make clothes. I'll give you the cloth tickets. You go buy a piece of cloth for Jiang Yun and make a new pair of trousers."
"No, no, no," Huang Yuzhu hurriedly waved her hands, "I can wear these pants for another half a year after they are sewn."
Jinbao listened to their conversation and suddenly thought of something. She walked to her father and asked in a low voice: "Dad, did you give Aunt Huang the money you earned from selling chickens? Aunt Huang doesn't have a penny on her, right?"
?”
After hearing Jinbao's reminder, Su Jianmin suddenly remembered this incident and patted his head hard.
"Oh, my second brother came back that day. I was so happy that I forgot about it..."
As he spoke, he hurried to the room on the second floor, took out twenty-seven yuan, and quickly ran back to the first floor. Panting slightly, he said to Huang Yuzhu: "I should have given you this money years ago.
It's all my fault, I forgot about it."
"Money?" Huang Yuzhu was stunned for a long time and asked in confusion, "What money?"
"The money from selling chickens, eight chickens sold for 54 yuan that day, we calculated and divided it with you half," Su Jianmin said, "Before, you were taking care of the chickens in the chicken pen, and you also helped our family a lot with the pig raising.
Busy, please accept the money."
Huang Yuzhu didn't expect that the Su family would want to give him some money. His heart was filled with tears and his eyes were red.
There were a lot of words she was holding back in her heart, and she felt that her words were light and weightless, and she could not express her inner gratitude at all.
Feeling that words were sincere without actions, Huang Yuzhu suddenly "thumped" and knelt on the ground, which shocked everyone, especially Su Jianmin, who was the closest and jumped back in fright, "Xiao Huang, you
What is this for?"
"Yuzhu, why are you kneeling on the ground? Get up quickly." Bai Lu hurriedly stepped forward to hold Huang Yuzhu's arm, trying to pull her up. "Jiang Yun is still watching you, what are you doing? If you don't get up, what will happen?
I’m really going to scare everyone.”
Huang Yuzhu was still kneeling, looking at his son who was not far away, and said, "Ayun, you also kneel down for your Uncle Su and Aunt Bai."
"No!" Bai Lu said anxiously, "Jiang Yun, don't listen to your mother. Why are you kneeling? It's not the old society anymore, and we are not landlords. Yuzhu, get up quickly. We have something to say."
Jiang Yun was hesitating whether to listen to his mother's words or Aunt Bai's words, when his right hand suddenly felt warm.
Jinbao appeared next to Jiang Yun and shook his head at him, "Aunt Huang wants to thank my parents, but you don't have to kneel down to say thank you, so Brother Ayun doesn't need to kneel down. You should persuade your mother to get up."
Looking into Jin Bao's big, spiritual eyes, Jiang Yun nodded and began to persuade his mother not to kneel down.
Although he wanted to go up and help his mother up, there was a hole in the back of his pants and he really couldn't move...
After a long time, after everyone's persuasion, Huang Yuzhu finally stood up from the ground and choked out: "It's right for me to kneel down to you. If you hadn't taken Ayun and I in, we two wouldn't even know where we would live now. We might have already left."
starving.
You not only gave us a place to stay, but also provided us with food and drink. You were so kind to us. Ayun and I don’t know how to repay your family. Even if we spend our next lives as cows and horses, how can we accept it again?
Your money?”
"What do you mean by pretending to be cows or horses? You are human beings! We don't need you to pretend to be cows or horses...
Besides, we don’t provide free food and accommodation. You have helped us do so much work, so it’s not like you live and eat for free.” Su Jianmin handed the money to Huang Yuzhu, “In short, you deserve this money!”
