Rebirth at 70: I am the rough man’s treasure

"His grandma never comes early or late. She really knows how to choose the right time!"

Wu Shengqian leaned back on the kang and cursed angrily.

Yang Xiaotian ran over and opened the door, and saw a dark-faced and handsome man. He smiled innocently and showed his white teeth. When he saw him, he shouted: "Is this my sister-in-law? She is so handsome!"

"you are?"

Yang Xiaotian blushed slightly and asked sheepishly.

The visitor quickly said: "My name is Lian Dagen, Brother Wu is my brother, and you are my sister-in-law!"

Yang Xiaotian was a little embarrassed by this man's enthusiasm. She turned to look at Wu Shengqian, and seeing him nodding, she turned sideways and let Lian Dagen in.

As soon as Lian Dagen entered the door, Yang Xiaotian realized that he was carrying several large and small bags and put them directly on the cabinet next to the pot.

"You... just come, what do you want to bring?"

As the hostess who had just arrived, Yang Xiaotian awkwardly said some kind words.

Wu Shengqian was not polite at all. He stood up slowly, pulled open the brown paper wrapping the things, and said to Yang Xiaotian: "Da Gen is not an outsider, so there is no need to be polite to him. Whatever he brings, we will take whatever he brings." If you dare to come empty-handed, you still have to scold him!"

He spoke domineeringly, but Lian Dagen still smiled naively, scratched his head and replied: "Yes, yes, Brother Wu is right, I am not an outsider."

Yang Xiaotian laughed and understood.

It seems that Wu Shengqian has a really good relationship with this man, unlike Li Erchuan, who looks like an ordinary neighbor at first glance.

So, she relaxed a lot, walked to the cabinet with a smile, and looked at what Lian Dagen had bought.

This sight really made her eyes light up.

Lian Dagen brought beef with soy sauce, vinegar, peanuts, pork and blood sausage, as well as a pot of old wine.

Yang Xiaotian helped put these things on the plate and set the table, then rolled up her sleeves and planned to make some staple food.

Wu Shengqian and Lian Dagen were talking, but his eyes kept glancing at her. He hurriedly said: "These are enough food, so don't be busy."

"Let's make a pot of noodle soup. It'll be hot. I'll sober you up later."

Yang Xiaotian's eyes lit up and she said sweetly.

Wu Shengqian was reluctant to ask her to do some work, but looking at her bright eyes, he couldn't bear to miss her care and craftsmanship.

After hesitating at the stall, Yang Xiaotian said again: "You two have a drink and a meal first. By the time you are full and full, my noodles are ready."

Listening to her gentle voice, Lian Dagen cast an envious look at Wu Shengqian.

Wu Shengqian's vanity was greatly satisfied for a moment, and he said in a low voice: "That's it, just make it simple and don't take too much trouble."

"know."

Yang Xiaotian didn't look back this time, and was already busy working at the pot.

She was chopping vegetables with her hands, but images from her childhood flashed through her mind.

At that time, her biological father Su Chenggang had not yet passed away, and she was still called Su Xiaotian.

My father was also a generous and sociable person. From time to time he would bring one or two brothers home to eat some side dishes and drink some wine together.

Her mother, just like her at this time, was smiling, entertaining good friends for her man, and was busy in front of the stove.

As for her, she was greedy and always came to the table to ask for meat from her father and uncle.

Her father was soft-hearted, so he put her on his knees and sat down, feeding the softest and most delicious pieces of meat into her mouth with chopsticks.

That scene was so beautiful, but it was a pity that it ended suddenly when she was seven years old.

Su Chenggang was working in a steel factory. Due to improper operation by his co-workers, hot molten steel surged out. Even his bones were melted into the molten steel, leaving nothing behind.

Yang Xiaotian's mother cried bitterly for several months, and a year later, she remarried to the Yang family.

From then on, she lived a life of dependence on others.

Although she changed her surname to Yang early, the Yang family still regarded her as an outsider, and her cousins ​​all liked to bully her.

Especially Yang Qingqing, who bullied her from childhood to adulthood.

If she hadn't died once before and decided to change her life, she might still be controlled by Yang Qingqing.

Yang Xiaotian was busy working quickly while recalling the past. Soon, a steaming pot of vegetable noodles was ready.

The noodles are hand-rolled, smooth and chewy; green vegetables and shredded radish are sprinkled in the soup, and the green and red colors meet, which is particularly beautiful; finally, two drops of sesame oil are added to enhance the flavor, and the aroma fills the cabin all of a sudden. Even the aroma of beef and wine was covered up.

"Hey, my sister-in-law is really good at this craft!"

Lian Dagen sincerely praised it.

Wu Shengqian slapped him on the back of the head, raised his eyebrows and said, "When you see your sister-in-law busy, don't you know how to help her?"

Lian Dagen stood up quickly, pretending to help Yang Xiaotian carry the bowl.

Yang Xiaotian also hurriedly said: "You can just sit down. This little work won't make me tired."

She bent down and placed the noodle bowl on the table, and quietly gave Wu Shengqian a sideways glance.

After Wu Shengqian finished a few glasses of wine, his heart was beating wildly, and he couldn't stand his little wife's smiles.

In his opinion, this white eye was no different from a wink, and it made him feel hot all over.

If it weren't for Lian Dagen, the light bulb, he would have hugged this little wife who specializes in seducing people.

Yang Xiaotian placed three bowls of noodles and sat down to eat.

Only then did she realize that the two men had picked out some of the three dishes for her and put them on a clean plate next to them.

In the 70s, the public was still very chauvinistic. Women were not allowed to serve at the table and could only eat the leftovers of men.

Even Yang Xiaotian's father Su Chenggang, although he had a good relationship with his mother when he was alive, had never done such a considerate thing as leaving food aside.

Yang Xiaotian looked at the plate of dishes and felt a little warm in her heart.

Wu Shengqian suddenly came closer, his mouth was close to her ear, and he breathed out hot breath.

Yang Xiaotian trembled and was about to hide, but she heard him say vaguely: "From now on... when there are people around, you cook; when we are alone, you sit and eat while I do the work."

Yang Xiaotian couldn't help but secretly smile after hearing this.

This man really likes to pretend!

She ignored him and just said to Lian Dagen: "Eat quickly, there is not enough left in the pot."

Lian Dagen responded repeatedly, picked up the noodle bowl, and ate quickly.

After finishing the meal, it was completely dark.

Lian Dagen quickly said goodbye and left, and the young couple sent him outside the courtyard gate.

When walking back, Wu Shengqian's steps were a little unsteady, and he staggered towards the sheep pen.

Finally, he did not forget to tell Yang Xiaotian: "Tonight...if you have anything to do tonight, just call me, don't be embarrassed..."

As he said this, he staggered and almost fell down.

"Be careful!"

Yang Xiaotian came over to give her a hand, and she was already standing at the door of the sheepfold.

She glanced inside. It was dark, and there was only a layer of straw mat spread on the low kang, which was hard and cold.

It seems that Wu Shengqian drank too much today and slept alone in the sheepfold. If something unexpected happened at night...

Yang Xiaotian thought of this, bit her lip, and discussed with him: "How about... you can sleep in the room tonight."
