Chapter 18: Parents have shortcomings

It was already dark when Ye Mingyuan went out. Most of the people in the village had finished work and had dinner at home. Ye Mingyuan didn't meet anyone on the road.

Ye Mingyuan arrived at the Su family and found that just as Su Jiao said, the Su family had finished eating and were already clearing away the dishes.

Sister-in-law Su, who was cleaning up in the kitchen, noticed Ye Mingyuan and quickly called out to the main room, "Mom and Dad, Mingyuan is here." Then she wiped her hands and came out.

He walked up to Ye Mingyuan and said, "Mingyuan, why are you here? Do you have something to do with your parents?"

Ye Mingyuan raised the basket in his hand so that Sister-in-law Su could see the contents inside. "Sister-in-law, I got lucky today when I went to the back mountain to chop wood after work. I caught a pheasant. Jiaojiao made potato stewed chicken for me. You guys sent some, have you had dinner at home?"

Sister-in-law Su couldn't help but swallow as she smelled the fragrance coming from the basket. She pointed to the kitchen and said, "We've already eaten at home. I'm washing the dishes right now."

Ye Mingyuan handed the basket to Sister-in-law Su, "Sister-in-law, then put the vegetables in the kitchen and keep them at home for tomorrow. There is also a bowl of braised crucian carp seeds in soy sauce. They are made from the crucian carp seeds that the third brother caught in the afternoon. They are also very fragrant. "

Before Sister-in-law Su could say anything, Mother Su opened the door and came out, "Is Mingyuan here? Come into the house and say it. My dear, if you don't let Mingyuan into the house as soon as Mingyuan is here, what are you talking about in the yard?"

"Hey, yes, look at my brain, Mingyuan come in the house quickly, come in and say." Sister-in-law Su patted her forehead, reached out to take the basket, and immediately called Ye Mingyuan into the house.

The three of them arrived in the east room. Su's father was sitting on the kang, leaning against the wall, smoking a cigarette and chatting with Brother Su and Brother Su. Dabao on the kang was rolling around and wanting to go out to play.

"Old guy, you smoke every day after eating. The smell of cigarette smoke fills the house. Go to the yard and smoke." Mother Su returned to the house and saw Father Su starting to smoke again, and immediately opened fire.

"Old lady, I'm very tired today. I'd like to smoke a cigarette to refresh myself. Mingyuan is here, please save some face for me." Su's father immediately put out the cigarette and begged for mercy.

Su Dabao didn't dare to make trouble when he saw Su's mother getting angry. He immediately got up and sat down obediently, as if he was grandma's good baby.

Seeing this, Sister-in-law Su put the basket on the kang and changed the topic: "Mom and Dad, these are the stewed chicken and soy sauce crucian carp seeds sent by Mingyuan."

Ye Mingyuan also immediately said with a wink: "I'm lucky today. I caught a pheasant while collecting firewood. It's quite fat. Jiaojiao just stewed it. Let me bring it to my parents to try. There are also crucian carp seeds given by the third brother. , Jiaojiao sauce simmered for a while, and I brought a bowl over."

"Oh, my little girl is so filial!" Mother Su's attention was diverted as expected, and she immediately began to pat her thighs and praise her daughter.

Ye Mingyuan: "......"

The whole Su family: "......"

"Wow, it smells so good. I want to eat chicken." Dabao came to the basket and looked at the chicken in the bowl. He wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said coquettishly.

"I just finished eating. What kind of meat did you eat? Come down quickly and I will take you out to play for a while." Sister-in-law Su stepped forward and pulled Dabao to the edge of the kang and started to put on Dabao's shoes.

"Okay, isn't it normal for children to be greedy for meat? Look at what you said, and Mingyuan thought I was treating you harshly." Mother Su picked up a large piece of chicken from the bowl and handed it to Su Dabao, He turned his head and said to Sister Su.

"Mom, that's not what I meant..." Sister-in-law Su looked flustered and immediately explained.

Brother Su's heart trembled when he heard Mother Su's words, "Mom, that's not what Guilan meant..."

Mother Su saw her son and daughter-in-law reacting so violently, and she quickly waved her hands in a funny way and said, "Mom, you are joking, I see you are so scared."

It has to be said that as long as Su Jiao is not involved, Mother Su is also very good to other people in the family. She is also like no other to Sister-in-law Su. Her mother-in-law dislikes her daughter-in-law everywhere. The Sister-in-law of the Su family is quick to do things and has a good personality. Most of the time, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along well.

Mother Su pointed to the basket on the kang, "Boss, please go to the kitchen and pour out the bowl for Mingyuan. Keep the chicken and fish ventilated and keep them for tomorrow."

"Hey," Sister-in-law Su said, seeing that Mother Su's expression was normal, she picked up the basket and went to the kitchen.

"Thank you for the milk~" Su Dabao said happily while sitting on the edge of the Kang, eating chicken and shaking his calves.

"Why are you thanking me for the milk? Your aunt and uncle gave it to you. Why don't you quickly say thank you to your uncle?" Mother Su gently tapped Su Dabao's forehead and said with a smile.

"Thank you, little uncle. When my uncle comes home, he will help me say thank you to my little aunt." Su Dabao blinked his big eyes and looked at Ye Mingyuan and said sweetly.

"Okay, I will convey Dabao's gratitude to your aunt when I get back." Ye Mingyuan touched Dabao's bald head and smiled.

"Dabao, go up to the kang and eat. Don't occupy the edge of the kang. Let your uncle sit for a while." Mother Su said, patting Dabao's dangling calf.

Dabao immediately moved inside obediently.

Ye Mingyuan sat on the edge of the kang and looked at Su Sange, who had been avoiding his eyes since he entered the house, and teased: "Third brother, how could you sneak away while I was losing my chicken feathers? You still blame me for coming home when I come home?" On."

"Aren't my parents waiting for me to have dinner at home? I told you that I was coming back, but you were too serious about taking off your chicken feathers and didn't hear me." Brother Su said in a low voice.

After hearing this, Mother Su immediately answered: "Mingyuan, do you still have enough food at home? Let's go back with half a bag of cornmeal later. It will be a long time before we can distribute the food."

"No, mother, we still have enough food at home. We will share the food in the autumn harvest." Ye Mingyuan immediately waved his hand and refused. Although Su's father is the production team leader, in addition to dividing the work among the employees, he also has to work to get work points. The Su family They are all strong laborers. Although they earn more, they also eat more, and the food at home is also tight.

"If you run out of food, just tell your parents and don't be embarrassed. Jiaojiao has never been hungry in such a long life." Su's mother continued to instruct. After all, this old lady still doesn't want her daughter to suffer.

"Hey, I understand, mother, don't worry, I won't let Jiaojiao go hungry." Ye Mingyuan responded.

At this time, Sister-in-law Su came back with the basket, and the bowls in the basket were also cleaned.

Ye Mingyuan also got off the kang and took the basket, saying goodbye to the Su family, "Mom and Dad, I'm going back. Jiaojiao and Yaoyao are still at home waiting for me to have dinner."

"Hey, okay, go home and eat quickly. Be careful on the road." Mother Su responded immediately when she heard that her precious daughter hadn't eaten yet.

In the west room of the Ye family, Su Jiao saw Ye Mingyuan pushing the door open and said with a smile: "Why did it take so long? Yaoyao is already hungry."

Ye Mingyuan glanced at Ye Yao on the kang, and as expected, she had already pouted, and explained: "My parents have already had dinner, so we just chatted there for a while."

"Okay Yaoyao, brother apologizes to you. It's because he came back late. Try the chicken your sister-in-law made." Ye Mingyuan sat on the kang, picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of chicken for Ye Yao and said.

"Hmm, this meat is so delicious." Sure enough, Xiao Yeyao didn't care to get angry when she saw the chicken, and said sweetly while eating the chicken.

I have to say that the little guy is very coaxable.

The days are flying fast in the family life, and it is almost the Mid-Autumn Festival in the blink of an eye, and the autumn harvest will begin in just over half a month.

During this time, Su Jiao went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, pick mushrooms, and nuts after work, and then washed and dried them. Ye Mingyuan also went to the mountains to collect firewood after work every day. Occasionally, he could catch pheasants and go down to the river to make some small fish to improve the family. Life. The firewood shed and kitchen doorway at home are full of piles.

Because Ye Yao was still young and didn't want to sleep in the east room by herself, Su Jiao used the east room as a storage room at home. There were two large frames built by Uncle Zhikai, a carpenter in the village.

There are already five bags of dried wild vegetables, three bags of dried mushrooms, and several bags of home-dried peppers, eggplants and beans on the shelf.

After drying wild vegetables, mushrooms and vegetables, they will lose a lot of water and become very small in size. Many of these dry goods on the shelves were sneakily taken by Su Jiao from the supermarket in the space.

In the yard, the mountain products picked a few days ago are still drying: hazelnuts, pecans and other nuts.

Seeing the number of things at home increasing little by little, Su Jiao felt full of accomplishment. She has now fully adapted to life here.

Although living conditions are relatively difficult now, these external conditions can be overcome. Moreover, her parents are loving, her husband is considerate and reliable, and her sister-in-law is cute and cute. The ordinary life of the family makes her feel warm and at ease. This is the happiness she has always longed for when she was a child.
