Chapter 744 Dragon Boat Festival (2)
Professor Song eats relatively light food, while Mr. Hu likes salty, sweet and sour food. Tian Shao took care of the tastes of the two elderly people and cooked two favorite dishes for each of them. As for themselves, it is mainly spicy.
It was already dark when the dishes were served.
Mr. Hu took a bite of braised lion head, nodded and said, "That's right, many of them are not unfamiliar with cooking skills."
Professor Song scolded with a smile: "Xiao Shao came back from school in a hurry to cook for us, and you still pick and choose. Xiao Shao, don't cook for him next time, just boil a pot of white rice porridge for him .”
Speaking of white rice porridge, Mr. Hu said with a smile: "Back then Xiao Shao gave us a small bag of white rice, and we got up in the middle of the night to make porridge. The smell made my mouth water."
At that time, I hadn’t eaten fine grains for a long time, and I drank a mouthful of 100-rice porridge, thinking it was the most delicious food in the world. Now that the days are better, no matter how delicious the food is, I can’t find that feeling anymore.
These are not good memories, Tian Shao changed the topic: "Grandpa Hu, will you bring Sankui with you when you go to the Northeast this time?"
"Why, do you have any other arrangements for Sankui?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "That's not true. I think it's not appropriate for you to travel back and forth like this now that you are old. After you get him familiar with the boundaries, I will leave this matter to Sankui. Sankui doesn't know medicinal materials, so we will give him Find someone who understands medicine to go with you."
Master Hu shook his head and said: "Xiao Shao, without enough experience, apprentices who have been apprentices for more than ten years will be deceived, and the underpants who asked Sankui to be deceived are gone."
Sankui slapped his hands when he heard this, but soon continued to bury the rice.
Sanya lowered her head and pursed her lips into a sneer.
Tian Shao frowned and said, "But if you want to run to the northeast every year, your body can't bear it."
Mr. Hu smiled and said: "Don't worry about it. I'll see if I can convince my old man this time that he can buy medicinal materials for you in the future. As long as he agrees, I don't have to run there all the time."
Tian Shao said: "He is short of money, we should agree to pay more!"
Mr. Hu nodded and said: "That's my plan too. Sigh, my old man is a bit of a stickler. I advised him to separate the children and let the old couple live alone. He didn't want to, saying that the children and grandchildren lived together. What's the excitement? , I quarreled over trivial matters every day, and I lived there for two days until my head was about to explode."
Sankui said beside him: "Actually, Grandpa Wang's four sons are very filial, and the grandchildren are also good. It's just that there are inevitably conflicts when so many people live together."
I think he was very sad when Uncle Li wanted to separate the family, but now looking back, he feels that his father was right. No matter how good the relationship between brothers is, when they get married, all they have to take care of is their own small family. It is better to separate the family.
Tian Shao heard the words and said: "If there is a conflict, the family should be separated as soon as possible, so that the brotherhood remains. If the conflicts have accumulated over time, the brothers may turn against each other."
Master Hu agrees with this statement very much.
Professor Song could understand the old man Wang's approach. He said, "I didn't think so when I was young. When I get old, I want my family to be lively and lively. You old man, you should be afraid of being alone, so you want your children and grandchildren to be happy. "
I don’t feel it when I’m busy on weekdays, but I feel deserted when I’m alone at home when I’m free. And this is also the reason why he agreed to come here for the Dragon Boat Festival. Of course, the main thing is that Mr. Hu is here, otherwise he wouldn't bother Tian Shao.
After dinner, Sanya cleaned up the dishes, Sankui walked to Tian Shao and said in a low voice, "Sister, I want to talk to you."
He deliberately avoided the crowd and said that he probably didn't want others to know, so Tian Shao took him to the small courtyard behind.
Standing under the ginkgo tree, Tian Shao asked him what was the matter.
San Kui lowered his voice and said: "Sister, Ning Lin has followed Brother Kun, I only found out after I came back."
Tian Shao was speechless. She thought it was something important and wasted her time: "Xu Kun is tall, handsome and rich, and has a bunch of younger brothers. It's not surprising that Ning Lin would follow him."
San Kui thought Tian Shao didn't understand, and explained: "Sister, I, I saw Ning Lin come out of Brother Kun's room, her clothes were messy at the time. I asked Brother Kun when he will serve the wine, and he said that he is not married yet."
This clearly means that she 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're clearly playing hooligans!
Tian Shao said: "Xu Kun has been wandering outside since he was a child, and he has been in contact with people of all schools and schools. He can see through Ning Lin's morality at a glance, but he just sees that she is good-looking, thinking that she will not take advantage of the bastard. As for marriage , he is definitely looking for a girl who lives a decent and peaceful life."
A shrewd man knows what kind of wife to marry will be good for himself and his children. For people like Ning Lin, Xu Kun must be just playing around.
San Kui 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 for money."
Now it is not as open as it will be twenty or thirty years later. Even if you are engaged now, you will be ridiculed by the neighbors if you marry a man and accidentally become pregnant. So before marriage, even a girl who is engaged will keep a distance from her fiancé. Of course, responsible men also keep boundaries. Like Pei Yue, even if he shared a room with her, he would not take one step further.
San Kui now regrets introducing Ning Lin to Xu Kun. He was kind enough to help, but now he is worried that Xu Kun will be harmed by Ning Lin in the future.
Tian Shao scolded with a smile: "The two of them 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 while and said: "Sister, I don't want to do anything with Xu Kun anymore."
"Is it because of this?"
Sankui said that this was only one of the reasons, and he said: "Sister, Brother Kun has made a lot of money in the past six months, and now he has to take seven or eight brothers with him when he goes out, and he speaks very loudly."
He is okay, with his brother-in-law and sister as backers, Xu Kun's attitude towards him remains unchanged. But his attitude towards other people is not so good, and he can be heard outside when he scolds others.
Tian Shao understands that Xu Kun is a bit flustered now that he has made money.
Sankui said: "Sister, I think Brother Kun is very dangerous this afternoon. Sister, Brother Kun is very convinced of you, please persuade him!"
He also persuaded, but Xu Kun didn't listen to what he said was not enough.
Tian Shao frowned, but Xu Kun helped her a lot, so I still want to persuade her: "Tell Xu Kun tomorrow that you have time to come to my house for dinner this Sunday. If you can't spare time on Sunday, then Go to Beijing University to taste the food in the cafeteria."
"good."
