Wood was burning on the earthen stove in the kitchen, and two pots were placed together, boiling and steaming. Sitting on a small stool, Zhou Jiao looked up and smelled it from time to time, and kept cleaning fresh squid in her hands.

At this moment, Zhou Jiao thought that there were several baskets of seafood waiting for her to clean up outside, and she wanted to cry. Why was she only thinking about being cheap?

In the yard, Father Zhang and Meili Zhang finished lifting the wine tank and were moving up the vermicelli when they saw Mother Zhang hurried in. Seeing this, Father Zhang asked in surprise, What's the matter? Why have you been away for so long?

Oh... That daughter-in-law is so good at chatting, she keeps pulling me and not letting me go.

Seeing that their father and daughter were about to finish moving, Mother Zhang went to the kitchen by herself. As soon as she entered the kitchen and saw Zhou Jiao working again, she quickly pulled her up and asked her to go back to the house to take care of the children.

There is no need for anyone to help light the fire in the kitchen, there is no need for more than one person to take care of her grandson. As for packing the seafood, the mother and daughter will pack it up soon after her eldest daughter finishes moving, so where is she needed?

Zhou Jiao washed her hands well, smelled the smell on her body, frowned, and took off her coat. After washing it once, I felt better, and hurried back to the living room.

She hasn't hugged her son for a day, but now that she is in her arms, Zhou Jiao feels a little guilty. She carried the child back to the bedroom, and after feeding the child, she felt even more uncomfortable when she saw her son holding her clothes tightly.

Zhou Jiao hummed and patted him gently. It was only after meeting that he fell asleep that Zhou Jiao dared to lie down on the bed with him in her arms. Lying on the bed, I suddenly felt back pain.

Closing her eyes, she felt a lot of comfort when she saw the space full of supplies. Her child will not have to suffer as much as she did when she was young.

Thinking of Zhang Guoqing going to look for Liu Ming tonight, she couldn't help worrying about whether Liu Ming would follow the car tomorrow, and it would not be a surprise if the crab died. If she hadn't remembered that the unit distributes benefits every year, and the crabs are preserved with sawdust soaked in sea water, there would be no way for her dad to receive live crabs.

Zhang Guoqing drove all the way to the provincial capital military area, drove directly to the door of Zhao Chuanguang's house, knocked on the door, briefly explained to the couple, and moved everything down. He didn't care about talking in detail, so he hurried to the provincial station to find someone to handle the matter.

At around ten o'clock at night, Zhang Guoqing finally parked his car in front of his house. As soon as I entered the yard, I saw that the things piled up before leaving were emptied, and the ground was tidied up.

As soon as Father Zhang heard the sound of the car, he hurried out, just in time to see him coming in, and asked, Is the matter settled? Why do you still have so many?

It's all done. Uncle Dashan also asked me to bring a lot to them. The things he prepared were not separated, so I didn't send them to the four uncles' homes. I gave them all to my godfather and the others. I simply said which ones were given to others. and ran away.

They were so enthusiastic, I drove away, and the godmother threw in this package, saying it was for Jiaojiao, and she didn't have time to deliver it. I haven't seen anything yet. This carton is some leftover seafood from our family.

Zhang Guoqing and his father walked while talking. When the father and son entered the kitchen, they saw his mother and his elder sister busy at the two stoves. The table is full of cooked conch, shrimp, shells and many other seafood.

Zhang Guoqing can’t laugh or cry—a lot of them can be frozen, so you don’t have to rush to cook them, “Mother, you and eldest sister don’t cook them. These are enough for us to eat. I’ve made plans. This is the cheapest thing, and it’s the most suitable gift.”

Hearing what he said, Zhang's mother immediately said to Zhang Meili: Don't burn this pot when it's ready. You have to go to work tomorrow, so go back early. Bring some cooked seafood here.

Zhang Guoqing stepped forward to pick up the empty wooden tray and grabbed a handful of each. After the pile was full, he directly put the wooden tray on the car. Then he ran to the warehouse and looked at the three bamboo baskets on the ground.

After hesitating, he picked up a big bamboo basket and filled it himself, put ten crabs in it, and put prawns, yellow croaker, and hairtail from the cardboard box on it.

Zhang Guoqing quickly mentioned that it should be put away in the car, so don't let his mother see these. To some extent, some things have reached a certain level of human affection, and it is no longer a simple human relationship. His mother couldn't understand, so he could only make up - Zhou Jiao didn't give it to Zuo Lin herself, so it should be hard to tell his mother directly.

Then he went back and picked up two baskets and put them on the car. He didn't touch the bamboo baskets of his two sisters. This can be according to his mother's meaning. There is no mother who does not love her daughter, so she has a reason for doing so.

Zhang Guoqing called Zhang Meili and drove her away in the car.

Mother Zhang returned to the warehouse and was about to turn off the lights, but found a bamboo basket on the ground. After turning off the lights, she stood in front of the yard and waited for Zhang Guoqing to come back.

After Zhang Guoqing delivered Zhang Meili, he returned home after finishing his business, and saw Zhang's mother alone in front of the house from a distance, he was startled, could it be that he was angry?

After locking the car door, Zhang Guoqing immediately stepped forward, pulled Zhang's mother inside, and said, Mom, why are you still waiting for me outside the door in such a cold day?

Xiao Wu, you didn't bring Zuo Lin's share with you? Did your mother not prepare well?

Zhang Guoqing saw her carefully looking at his face, and quickly comforted him: Mother prepared well. But I think my elder brother and sister-in-law are all thanks to Aunt Zuo and my second elder brother being under him this time. This time the full moon is safe and sound. He even gave a heavy gift.

It doesn't matter what you send at ordinary times. This time, Uncle Dashan must have sent it over early. If he said what he bought, and when he turned around and looked at the things we gave, Uncle Zuo and Aunt Zuo would worry that their husband and wife would have lumps in their hearts. Give more.

In addition to Uncle Zuo and Uncle Dashan in our family, Yuntao and Qinglin should pay attention to their families. The rest of them are just fine according to your arrangement.

Qinglin's and Yuntao's, I won't send them there this time. In two days, they must come to the door and let them pick some to take home. When it was sent to their two families, others saw that it had a bad effect.

Mother Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, What do you plan to do with the old crab? You have to deal with it early, or it will be bad if you die.

Zhang Guoqing thought about how to say it so that she would not feel distressed, Mom, my father-in-law just went to work, and my mother-in-law, you also know that she is unsophisticated.

As for me, seeing how cheap it is to buy, I want to take the train to the capital and send it to my father-in-law. Usually, he is not good at dealing with the family members of those superiors. If I send it over now, he will have an excuse. My father-in-law is fine, so I am fine. Besides, he spent a handful of money on me and Jiaojiao, and left a handful of money before he left. I want to do my best.

Mother Zhang nodded immediately and said: It should be. Be filial to him! Then have you found a good person? In such a cold day, sea crabs will freeze to death. Have you thought about what to do?

I went to the provincial station to find someone tonight, and the other party promised to help me take it there tomorrow. We've already figured out how to keep it. Jiaojiao and I will clean it up later. You and Dad go to bed early.

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly pulled away Zhang's mother who was in a hurry to prepare a gift.

Entering the bedroom, I saw Zhou Jiao's mother and son sleeping soundly. He closed the door lightly, and went out of the yard to sort things out.

When it was past eleven o'clock in the evening, Zhang Guoqing had no choice but to wake up Zhou Jiao—a lot of things were in her space.

In the dead of night, in the kitchen, the couple began to cook crabs, planning to pack them after Zhang's mother and the others fell asleep.

After one o'clock in the morning, the couple washed their hands, looked at the cooked crabs and live crabs that were packed ahead, and then looked at several boxes of packed seafood. The two breathed a sigh of relief, quickly washed up and slept, and could catch up with their son to wake up.
