Lin Xiuqing had just stepped into the house when she heard this, and she was speechless. How could she not know what her eldest son was up to?
Every bit of good food should be served outside, and eaten for others to see!
This love of showing off is really well inherited, when will it be corrected?
Wouldn’t it be better to look at other people’s envious eyes?
"You are not allowed to take it out, just eat in the house, put down the bowl for me, if you knock out the bowl, you will have to beat me on the first day of the new year."
Ye Chenghu had just picked up the rice bowl from the table when he heard his mother's voice, his hands trembled.
"Oh...it's okay...it's not poured..." Ye Chenghu breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his head and looked at Lin Xiuqing obsequiously.
"Hehe, mother, I'm just talking, thinking that A Haige and the others must have never seen what shark's fin looks like, and they must not know that shark's fin is exactly the same as sweet potato vermicelli, so I thought of taking it out for them to have a look. .”
"Otherwise, if I tell them that shark's fin is exactly the same as sweet potato powder, they will definitely not believe it, and they will definitely say that I am lying."
Ye Chengyang stirred the bowl with his chopsticks, and looked at his brother innocently, "But I think it's sweet potato vermicelli."
"You know what a fart!" Ye Chenghu said bluntly.
The big one got angry at the small one, and the small one got angry at the smaller one. Poor Ye Chengyang, the bottom of the food chain.
"Eat it quickly, you're still chattering, you won't be able to stop your mouth even if you eat it."
Ye Yaodong washed his hands after burning incense and gold ingots. When he came in, he heard Ye Chenghu's long speech. It was rare that he could speak so clearly, but it sounded a bit convoluted and talked too much!
Ye Chenghu glanced at the door regretfully, then picked up the chopsticks and picked them up slowly, "Father, this is really your shark's fin, why does it look like sweet potato vermicelli?"
"How do I know? Can I tell it not to look like this? It's not very similar. This one is shorter and a bit crispy. The sweet potato vermicelli is longer and softer. Eat it quickly, don't talk nonsense, it will cool down later. It’s not tasty, there’s only so much in total, I’m still reluctant to eat it, you’re still muttering.”
"It's not very tasty...it's almost like sweet potato vermicelli..." Ye Chenghu picked up a chopstick, tasted it, and muttered in his mouth.
Lin Xiuqing glanced at him, pursed her lips, didn't bother to talk about him anymore, and didn't know when she became a chatterbox, picked up Ye Xiaoxi and planned to feed her egg custard.
Shark’s fin itself really doesn’t have any taste. If there is any, it must have a faint fishy smell. Anyway, it’s the same as fried noodles, fried and eaten.
Ye Yaodong also walked towards his seat and sat down. There was already a bowl of boiled seafood rice cakes in front of him on the table. The chopsticks were well held, and the bowl was still steaming. A piece of dried mussels, looking full of appetite, and the old lady and Lin Xiuqing also put a bowl on the table.
New Year’s Day is to eat rice cakes, which means that every year is getting higher and higher.
This rice cake was also a year ago. Mother Ye bought a hundred catties of glutinous rice, and sent it to the workshop with the rice at home to be made out, and distributed to the three brothers.
Just as the whole family was eating rice cakes, Father Ye and Mother Ye came over for a walk after breakfast.
"There is still a lot of leftover food from yesterday. Cook porridge at noon. You all go to the old house to eat and finish the food. Otherwise, you will all go to the old man's house for dinner tomorrow. Your father and I can eat the leftover food at home." Not finished."
"Um."
"Also, since you want to ask your father-in-law to look at the shop in your city, then you can ask about it when you pass by tomorrow."
"I know, that's what I planned, so I don't have to make another trip a few days later. I heard that the stalls will be moved to the new market after the next year. It can't be later than the fifteenth day."
"Just as long as you know it in your heart."
"I'll ask tomorrow. If I'm willing to go, I have to help him make a bed in advance, as well as pots and pans. If the other shop can't be rented out for a while, it will be used as a room for him to sleep in. "
"You can figure it out. You can save travel expenses by finishing the work in one trip. By the way, you can send all the dried fish to the city. Anyway, they will be sold there. You will have no place to stay in this house." , your elder brother and second brother are similar."
"knew."
By the way, I settled the money for them, otherwise, his elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law have been thinking about it, and other people's families have weighed it, and the money has been settled, and the two of them are still piled up there.
Although they didn't mutter in front of him, they could still hear them whispering there occasionally when they were separated by a wall.
He also thought that he couldn't fit it in his house, so he would pile it up in their two families, so there was no need to move the scales around, just pile them up there, and when he was going to pull them away, he would move them out and weigh them in the car. , can he break his promise?
Ye Chenghu saw that the adult had come to an end, so he raised his head and said to Ye's father and mother: "Grandpa and grandma, I ate shark fin this morning! It looks exactly like sweet potato powder..."
"It's finished drying, can I eat it?"
"Last night, I looked at it and took it in. I happened to cook a bowl for breakfast in the morning. See if I can eat smarter? Come back with a score of 100 on the test."
After Ye Chenghu opened his mouth in surprise, he quickly lowered his head and pulled a little bit of what was left in the bowl into it. He didn't dare to speak anymore, and took the opportunity to slip off the stool.
Which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted, and it tells a story of 100 points?
When I came back with the report card years ago, my mother almost beat me up, but I managed to hide in the old lady's room.
"If eating shark fin can score 100 points in the test, the shark will be caught and extinct." Ye Mu complained.
"Then you have to have the ability and the technology to catch it. Do you think sharks are so small? Maybe it's not sure who will eat them."
Ye Yaodong drank all the soup in the bowl, and then put the bowl and chopsticks away, "I'll go out for a stroll."
"Just play cards, what about strolling..."
Ye Yaodong glanced at his mother, and walked out on his own, not caring about her muttering, and never said anything good about him, but he didn't say anything good about others either.
Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, everyone has money in their pockets, go out for a stroll, play cards and win a few dollars for living expenses.
When I went to my father-in-law’s house for New Year’s greetings on the second day of junior high, I asked him about looking at the store.
This is even better!
The two of them have companions and have someone to talk to, so they won’t be bored and lonely. Anyway, the two sons in the family have separated early, and they just work together to earn money, which is divided into three parts.
The two elders are old and old, earning so much money, they will be given to them as young people in the future, why not just give all the work to the two uncles now, let them do it, he can go to the city to look at the shops, and he can earn another Pension money.
I don’t know if there was a family meeting. They didn’t seem to be reluctant at all, and the whole family was very happy.
Ye Yaodong is also very happy, so he doesn't have to go to the market every three days to sell dried fish. It's not good to occupy the tractor every day, and it hurts his wallet. There is no one to carpool, and the round trip fee is too big.
Since the father-in-law is willing, he only needs ten days and a half a month to go there when he finds time to deliver something or take a look.
All the goods from the year before have been delivered in the army. I haven’t talked about whether I will need them after the year. I can’t let the soldiers eat dried fish every day.
He thought, if there are more in the future, it should not be so frequent. After the spring, there will be more ships going to sea. In the future, you can't completely count on the orders in the army. Where the shops are open, you can sell a little bit.
It was Lin Xiuqing who was a little worried about her parents. She felt that the elders were getting old and went to a strange place again. She was afraid that they would not get used to it and couldn't stay there, so she kept talking about it on the way back.
Ye Yaodong reassured her helplessly, "Didn't you tell them all? These days, let's buy them a radio so that they can pass the time in the shop. Don't the old people like to listen to stories and plays? They won't be bored. "
"And don't they love farming? There is also a little open space on the roadside nearby. Let him bring the **** and open it, and grow a la carte for himself."
"Everything I told you is very simple and the same."
"It's a very simple matter. If you love to worry about it and think about it, how can I cheat your parents? If it's not suitable, you can't stay, just take it back. What loss can I have? Oh, If you lose a radio, then just treat it as a filial piety to your parents, as it should be.”
Lin Xiuqing smiled, "You are the only one who can say and plan."
Think about it and don’t get entangled anymore. Anyway, they have all made up their minds, and they have agreed to go to the city after the 15th.
Ye Chenghu raised his head and asked, "Father, when will you take us to the city?"
"What are you taking me for? Sell it?"
"No, didn't you say before that you have the opportunity to take us there."
"You also said that there is a chance, just wait. Most children have never even been to the town, but you are still ambitious and want to go to the city. You are promising, and you can think about it."
"Must!" Ye Chenghu raised his head proudly.
"Are you planning to go to school to show off after school starts?" Lin Xiuqing saw through his little thoughts at a glance.
"How do you know?" Ye Chenghu blurted out.
"You were born to me!"
The bowl of shark's fin yesterday failed to be brought to the door, but it couldn't stop him from showing off at all. As soon as he finished eating, he ran to the next door, clattering that he had eaten shark's fin this morning, and described it to his brothers and sisters. The taste, and how expensive the things are, made everyone drool and couldn't envy them.
She heard it from the doorway through a wall.
Ye Chenghe said without thinking at the time, "It would be great if I was born to my third uncle..."
As a result, he was scolded by his wife on the first day of the new year.
I'm lazy today, and I haven't finished writing a chapter yet, it may take two o'clock, don't wait, read it tomorrow
