It was a little dawn, and Xue’s father and mother Xue woke up.
They couldn't sleep, so they simply got up, washed up and poured hot water, sat in the living room and chatted at the river view outside the window.
"Oh! There are still people fishing in this cold weather!"
"Yes, it doesn't snow much here. The river water does not freeze, so you can catch fish naturally. Not to mention, the fish in the cold weather is delicious."
Xue's mother glared at him with a funny look and asked, "Do you understand this too?"
"Of course I understand." Xue's father smiled and replied: "Freshwater fish are all more delicious in winter and the meat is tighter. In winter, food in the water is difficult to find, and the fish are thinner, and the thin fish meat is even better."
"Is that so? Didn't you say that fish is fat and delicious?" Xue's mother didn't believe it at all.
Dad Xue replied: "Really, I didn't lie to you! Don't you think about it, can you pick fat pork? Will you? Of course, you buy those thin ones!"
After thinking about it, Mother Xue thought about it, and felt that there was a little reason.
"Then we have to find some to eat."
"What's the difficulty!" Xue Dad said: "Last night, Ahu told me that he has time these days and plans to do barbecue every night, so that we can eat his best grilled fish tonight. Mu Hai
It is also said that his godson's grilled fish is very skillful and tastes very good."
"Oh! Then I have to try it." Xue's mother narrowed her eyes and looked at the rippling river surface and whispered: "Look, the water quality here is really good! There are so many grasses around - they are all green. It's grown in this place.
The fish that came out must be delicious.”
Dad Xue couldn't help laughing and whispered: "Don't get fat again after you come back last time. After anyone went back, he shouted that he was overwhelmed with his clothes. Don't be too fat, you have to pay attention to losing weight."
"Go to you!" Xue's mother laughed and scolded: "I'm fat, you don't want me anymore?! I'll show you how fat you are! I'll see if you dare not want me!"
"I dare not, don't dare." Dad Xue smiled: "The fatter the pig is, the more valuable it is. I have raised you for so many years. I have finally gained a little weight, and I finally have some face. The sister-in-law in your mother's family always says we are too busy.
, You are so tired that you are not decent every day, and you are so thin that they feel distressed."
Xue's mother's face was slightly darker, "If she really felt sorry for me, don't always run to our factory every few days. I've been married for so many years, and my parents' life has been shorter than you.
, why should she-"
"Okay, OK!" Xue's father interrupted her and whispered: "We can't live on now. If you can, just help me. I used to be poor, and if I want to give you more, I have to consider whether my family's money is not enough.
.The life is getting better now, and it’s not a few hundred dollars short of them. They will give it a little when they ask for it. Everyone is happy with each other. It’s pretty good.”
"I'm not happy!" Xue's mother said in a deep voice: "You are worthy of my parents. When they were old, we took care of them and paid for money. Even if we were doing funerals, we paid a lot. My sister-in-law's family was just like that.
If something happens, just ask for money from you - the question is whether their family lacks money? They can make money, and they can get a salary. This is like this every year, every year, how can you be generous? They are like this!
Look at you being honest and trying every means to dig your money! I feel upset when I see you!"
"Okay, okay." Xue's father said warmly: "It's all small things. Problems that can be solved by money are not big problems. Now our economy is better, as long as we don't hurt our relationship, everything is good."
Xue's mother sighed and whispered: "You can't always indulge in human hearts. I know you're for me, but... I can't be happy if I don't do that."
"I know." Dad Xue patted the back of her hand and said warmly: "This time we are here for the New Year. There is no one at home and no one in the factory. Even if they want to ask me for money, they will have no chance.
!When we go back, the New Year has passed, what excuses do they have to ask for money? Didn’t they avoid it this time?"
Xue's mother nodded and said, "If there is something wrong with them, we will naturally not stand by and watch. We don't have to worry about them at other times. Don't make excuses to dig money all day long."
Their family's money was earned by both of them and their husbands, not by stealing it.
Why do they have a lot of money? Even if their family members have to pay for them to buy food for a small festival?
If a person does not know himself, he will sooner or later be disliked, regardless of whether he is the closest person or not.
Dad Xue just laughed and didn't take it to heart.
When he was at his worst, her family never really despised herself and asked her to wait until he came to marry her. This alone would be enough for him to be grateful for her for the rest of his life.
The father-in-law and mother-in-law are gone, but their son and granddaughter are there, so he can do as much as he can.
At this moment, a low shout sounded outside the door: "Haitang, are you awake? I seem to hear you talking."
Xue's mother hurriedly walked to open the door - she saw Cheng Muhai holding a big pot in her hand, wearing an outing coat and a hat, and smiled and said, "I went out to buy stone-grind soy milk, you guys come and drink it while it's hot."
"Oh! Stone-ground soy milk?" Dad Xue jumped up suddenly, "It seems that I haven't drunk soy milk for a long time! It smells so good!"
Cheng Muhai shouted: "Hurry! Come and eat!"
Xue's mother explained with a smile: "Since we moved to the clothing factory, we basically followed the workers to eat for three meals. We would eat whatever is cooked in the canteen. His stomach is so good that I always let him eat porridge in the morning."
While placing the bowls and chopsticks, Liu Ying smiled and said, "How can I drink so much soy milk from the big canteen? I made char siu buns yesterday afternoon. Ling Ling likes to eat them the most. It has been steamed, so let's eat them.
Is it good to use buns with soy milk?"
"Of course!" Dad Xue smiled and said, "It's a perfect match!"
Someone helped to get the buns and some helped to spoon soy milk. Soon the four of them gathered together to eat.
Liu Ying smiled and said, "We spoke so loudly, Ranran has not yet woken up. I was so tired of playing yesterday. I slept very heavily last night. I didn't even have to get up to drink water in the middle of the night. I am still asleep now."
Cheng Muhai explained: "Ahu has time these days, and he will take us out to play from time to time. That kid is really fucking him."
"It's so good!" Xue's mother smiled and said, "This Comrade Ah Hu met for the first time. I thought this child was generous and generous. He looked like a decent person at first glance! He could have such a good son - a good vision.
!”
Cheng Muhai and Liu Ying both laughed.
Dad Xue couldn't help asking, "By the way, where is Afang? Why didn't you see her? Why didn't the school start a holiday so late?"
"She went to visit the water conservancy project in the South Island." Liu Ying explained: "It was an event organized by the school. It said that it was difficult to buy tickets at the end of the year. If you can't buy it, you may have to go back after the New Year."
"There is no need to worry about the activities organized by the school." Xue's father said warmly: "It will be safer if teachers and classmates follow you."
Xue's mother echoed: "It's great to go out for a walk while you're young! There are railways everywhere now, so it's convenient to go wherever you go. Like when we were at that time, we had 100% dependent on our legs, wherever we could go.
ah?"
Cheng Muhai sighed softly and lowered his voice: "I thought this daughter was gone. Now she can walk back to the right path and become a new person. We are very happy. As long as she is willing to work hard to study hard, be a good person, and be a useful person.
We will support everyone."
"As for people, there will always be times when they take detours and go wrong." Dad Xue whispered: "It's good to be able to go back to the right path."
All four of them laughed softly.
At this moment, a stuttering voice came from the room: "Grandma! Grandpa~"
