When Zhang Xingwang got up in the morning, only his aunt was left at home. His cousins ​​had gone to school, and his uncle had gone to help the villagers clean up the house.

I had breakfast with my aunt and chatted for a while. Seeing my aunt with a rosy face and a big smile, I stopped paying attention to my uncle's recent performance. After dinner, I said goodbye to my aunt and went straight to the old man's house.

When I arrived at the old man's house, I pushed my bicycle into the yard and saw my mother, Wang Xiulan, tidying up the debris in the yard. The old couple was basking in the sun leisurely at the door.

As for the little girl, no one knew where she had run off to. She didn't come back until dinner time. She was dirty and even her braids were loose.

Fortunately, the hairband was not lost and was still in her hand, but her original color could not be seen. Wang Xiulan caught her and gave her a good beating. If she had not had to ride a bicycle home in the afternoon, her little butt would have been in danger.

Ever since Zhang Xingwang came back, the old man couldn't help but look at the sack on the bicycle. He let the old lady push it and cursed quietly:

"A dog's stomach can't hold two ounces of oil, what are you looking at?"

The old man finally reacted and turned around to see his granddaughter being beaten.

After having a sumptuous lunch together, the little girl looked at the braised pork, smoked pheasant and a dish of radish and cabbage on the table, her mouth watered, and she said directly:

"Grandma is so nice. I have never eaten braised pork in my life."

Everyone laughed, but Zhang Xingwang felt very comfortable after eating this meal. Grandma's house was still the best, at least he didn't have to cook for himself.

Zhang Xingwang also took out three bottles of wine from the sack and let the old man have a drink. The weather was getting colder and it could warm his body. He also asked for the bottle of wine that the old man had finished drinking before and kept it for medicine later.

Watching the little girl wolfing down the braised pork while eating, Zhang Xingwang felt that her little butt would eventually be lost. He hoped that she could hold on until she got home.

Just because Zhang Xingwang inadvertently mentioned that Wang Xiulan's cooking skills were average, his mother Wang Xiulan was personally dragged into the kitchen by the old lady and taught how to make these three dishes.

At this moment, he was explaining to her the recipes of these home-cooked dishes. Seeing his mother and the old grandmother secretly giving him teasing looks, Zhang Xingwang quickly gave the old grandmother a thumbs up.

After lunch and a short rest, Zhang Xingwang and his family said goodbye to the old couple and set off back to the city. Before leaving, Zhang Xingwang skillfully took out ten kilograms of rice and flour from the sack.

After thinking about it, he took out about 40 to 50 kilograms of potatoes and corn and asked the old man to keep them for his own cooking, and also asked the aunts to take some back when they came to visit him.

He would bring some more when he came later, mainly because the sacks were limited and he didn't dare to take out too much. If he had given them rice and flour when he first came, the old lady would have cooked them for him and there would definitely not be much left.

When he was taking out the corn, the little girl hurried over and wanted to reach out as well. Zhang Xingwang had no choice but to leave two potatoes and two smoked chickens for the little girl to experience the joy of taking things.

After the little girl finished taking out the things, she looked at the shriveled sack, then at the pile of things that Zhang Xingwang had taken out, with an expression of being unsatisfied. She probably thought that her craftsmanship was not good enough.

However, the old couple only kept one smoked chicken and said they didn't want the remaining one, so they asked Zhang Xingwang to take it back for his granddaughters who were not there to eat.

The little girl turned into a reporter for a "Dig Deep Into Things" column along the way, asking questions that were even more difficult to deal with than the fourth sister. She kept digging at the smoked chicken in the sack, but she never took out anything new. She kept pestering Zhang Xingwang to teach her how to dig things out.

If the little guy hadn't eaten too much braised pork and had diarrhea on the way, Zhang Xingwang would have been unable to bear it. His mother Wang Xiulan and the old couple didn't ask anything.

On the way, Wang Xiulan only asked about his itinerary in a roundabout way and then stopped talking. I guess her main concern was the source of the things.

When he returned to the Taoist temple, he happened to meet the third uncle Yan Bugui who was about to go out. They greeted each other. Yan Bugui looked at the empty-handed mother and her two children and the shriveled sack, and curled his lips habitually. Then he watched the three of them go back, and showed a look of regret at Zhang Xingwang's back.

It's time to get off work and cook dinner. The Central Courtyard is also very busy at this moment, with many people washing vegetables by the sink.

After casually greeting everyone and looking at their regretful eyes, Zhang Xingwang wanted to kill the bandit but was powerless to do so. This time he shot himself in the foot and experienced the treatment that Yi Zhonghai received.

After returning home, he found that his two sisters had already started busying themselves in the kitchen. Zhang Xingwang sat at the table listening to the gossip reported by his fourth sister. Looking at his two sisters busying around in the kitchen, he was trying hard to comfort himself and tell himself to hold back.

As a result, when mother Wang Xiulan saw how clumsily her eldest sister was chopping vegetables, she hurried over to chase her two older sisters out, to prevent the eldest sister from scratching the chopping board out of impulse by using too much force.

She asked the two of them to stand at the door and watch her craft, and she tidied up her two daughters in the same tone as an old grandmother nagging her.

The second sister looked at the eldest sister with a face full of grievance, thinking that if it wasn't for her sister's trouble, she would be able to cook easily, so why would she be scolded. The eldest sister listened to Wang Xiulan's talk about cooking and cutting vegetables seriously, although she showed an expression of "I see" from time to time. But only God knows whether she can learn it or not.

Zhang Xingwang simply turned a blind eye and listened attentively to fourth sister's report. Seeing fourth sister in high spirits chattering about all the big and small things in the courtyard, Zhang Xingwang, who originally wanted to have some peace and quiet, only felt a burst of devilish sound in his ears, and his head was about to explode.

It was immediately decided that she would not have a share of the chicken smoked in the evening, so that she could save some energy and see if she could talk less in the future. Who knew that when she lowered her head to drink water, the air suddenly became quiet, as if the fourth sister who had finished gossiping had disappeared.

After looking around for a long time without finding it, the little girl who was wiping the sack with a rag told him without even looking up:

"My sister just went back to do her homework and asked me to call her when it's time to eat."

Zhang Xingwang felt even worse when he saw the little girl wiping the sacks. There was not a single normal sister in the room. Tired, Zhang Xingwang also said that she would call him when it was time for dinner.

Then he naturally reached into his sack, took out a smoked chicken from the space and put it on the table, then went back to the room and prepared to lie down. Zhang Xingwang, who just wanted to be quiet for a while, seemed to have forgotten that there was a smoked chicken in the bag.

After the little girl watched her brother go back to the room, she silently exchanged the sack she had just cleaned with her brother's, and then started wiping again.
