Abandoned Wives of the Ages: Getting Rich from Space Warehouses

Chapter 650: Pick up the bowl to eat, put down the bowl and scold your mother

Wu Lizhen took a shuttle bus from the countryside back to the capital and took a bus from the bus station to her home.

When she got home, she put half a bag of potatoes into the kitchen, shook her sore arm, and felt happy. This time her parents' gift in return was not bad, ten pounds of potatoes!

In the evening, when Father Xiang came back, Wu Lizhen had already prepared the meal.

On the table was a rare bowl of bacon, a bowl of bone soup, and a vegetarian dish.

"Hey! What a good day today is? Are you willing to cut up and eat the bacon hanging on the kitchen stove?" Father Xiang put down his briefcase, washed his hands and sat at the dining table.

Wu Lizhen brought the last plate of shredded potatoes to the table. After hearing what he said, she said angrily: "It sounds like I'm usually very picky."

Father Xiang glanced at her meaningfully, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of bacon and threw it into his mouth, remembering the taste.

"Don't mention it, Qingqing is better at making bacon. Whether it's fried, steamed or stewed, the bacon she makes is better than other people's."

Wu Lizhen smiled and nodded: "Her bacon is certainly not good enough."

Father Xiang nodded in agreement: "It tastes really good!"

Wu Lizhen took two pieces of bacon for herself and sighed: "It's a pity that she is too stingy. She only sends two pieces every year. After all, you are also her father-in-law. I want to honor you, but two pieces are too small, right?"

Father Xiang's mouth twitched: "."

He took a sip of wine, put down the glass, and said: "As a daughter-in-law, she remembers to send us two pieces of bacon every year, which is considered a filial piety. Besides, each piece of bacon weighs five or six kilograms, and two pieces are enough."

It weighs more than ten kilograms."

Wu Lizhen hummed: "A dozen pounds of meat per year is a big deal."

Father Xiang's eyes widened: "Apart from the bacon, the other things sent back are not things? You are here to despise their filial piety. If you have the ability, don't eat or use the things she sent back!"

"You" Wu Lizhen was so blocked that she didn't know how to refute.

Father Xiang warned her: "As a human being, don't do that shameless behavior of picking up the bowl to eat and then cursing your mother when you put the bowl down. It's very disgusting!"

Wu Lizhen was originally in a good mood today and cooked a table of delicious dishes. She never expected that she would get such a big backlash from Father Xiang just by saying a few casual words.

She felt aggrieved: "I just said a few words casually, do you use such righteous words to me? She is a junior, why can't I say a few words to her?"

Father Xiang had a headache when he saw her looking like she was about to be bullied and cried, "Okay, you can say it, but when you talk about Qingqing, compare her with Xiaoxue, and it will be impossible to say those words you just said."

Xiang Xue has been married for seven or eight years.

From the time I got married to now, every time I go back to my mother's house, I bring a few things with me, but when I leave, I have to carry them to her small home in large and small packages.

She was the only one who had beaten Qiu Feng so blatantly. As stepfather, Xiang's father was a grown man, and it was hard for him to argue with a junior about such a trivial matter.

Wu Lizhen was afraid that her daughter would be bullied by her husband's family, so every time Xiang Xue came, she would prepare large and small gifts for her in return, as if she was eager to let the man know that Xiang Xue's natal family was too rich to move the money.

"What do you mean by this?" Wu Lizhen felt guilty at this time, but her momentum could not be weakened: "Do you dislike Xue'er for being incompetent? Can't you be as filial to you as your eldest son? But you have to know that she married into another family as a woman,

How could she dare to give gifts to her mother-in-law's family unscrupulously when her husband and mother-in-law are oppressing her? And every time she comes back, I give her more gifts in return to support her so that her husband's family will be wary of our Xiang family if they want to bully her.

!”

Father Xiang didn't want to argue with her. There was no point in winning the argument.

He pressed his hand and said: "This matter ends here. Let's eat without talking and sleep without talking. Let's eat in peace."

Wu Lizhen was also afraid that Xiang's father would be more serious and would not allow her to support her daughter, so she kept her mouth shut.

However, the two of them hadn't even taken two bites of their meal before Wu Lizhen reacted: "Where has my son gone? It's dark outside, why haven't you come back when it's time to eat?"

Father Xiang's heart skipped a beat, this matter.

Don't worry about anything else, let's start by saying, "I didn't even notice it if you didn't tell me. Didn't Xiaolin follow you back to Wu's house? Why hasn't he come back since you came back?"

"this"

Wu Lizhen did not expect that Father Xiang would suddenly ask back. She glanced around but did not dare to look at Father Xiang. She hesitated: "He, of course he followed the Wu family, but when he returned to the capital, he... was called by his friends.

He left. I thought he would come find you after finishing his work."

When Father Xiang heard this, he was so angry that he was hurt internally!

The old saying that a loving mother often loses her children is absolutely true!

He now realizes that a boy cannot outgrow a woman's hands, otherwise he will be useless sooner or later!

"Okay! Since he left with his 'friends', leave him alone and eat!"

Wu Lizhen seemed to be gritting her teeth when hearing these words?

She suspected that she was being careless and asked again: "Why don't we go out and look for him?"

Xiang's father had suppressed his anger yesterday, and now he burst out without warning: "How old is he? How can he be lost? Isn't he an idiot who can't find his way home? Otherwise, in the future, you will

Tie it to your waistband and carry it with you wherever you go?"

Wu Lizhen was shocked. Has this man reached menopause?

"What's wrong with you? Who provoked you?"

When Father Xiang saw her innocent face, he was so angry that his head was smoking, and he had nowhere to vent his anger.

He picked up the wine glass on the table, drank it in one gulp, placed the glass heavily on the table, and shouted: "You and your whole family!"

Wu Lizhen was dumbfounded by the yelling and sighed inwardly. It seemed that this man was really going through menopause!

Father Xiang was so angry that his liver hurt. No matter how delicious the food was, he stood up and walked to the study.

Wu Lizhen looked at his back blankly: "You don't want to eat?"

"How can I eat when I'm full of anger?"

As the words fell, the study door also slammed shut, cutting off the connection with the living room.

After Wu Lizhen finished her meal, she sat in the living room and watched TV while anxiously waiting for Xiang Yilin to come home.

As the night got deeper and deeper, even her favorite TV series playing on the TV could not attract her attention.

"Where has this child gone? I wonder where he spent the past two days?"

Early the next morning, Xiang's father got up early, cooked breakfast and put it on the table. Just as he was about to eat it, Wu Lizhen came down from upstairs with a pair of heavy black circles under her eyes.

"Huh!" He was startled: "You look like a ghost, did you become a thief last night?"

Unable to express the worries in her heart, Wu Lizhen could only stare at him with resentful eyes: "You didn't go back to your room to sleep last night."

"Ahem!" Father Xiang's face felt a little uncomfortable, and his tone softened a lot: "I slept in the study last night. We are an old couple. You won't have insomnia because I didn't go back to sleep, right?"

Wu Lizhen: "."

Father Xiang first served her a bowl of white porridge: "I used to work in the research institute and stayed there for most of the year, and I never saw that you couldn't live without me. Why do you act so much like you care about me just after you retired?"

After he retires, he still wants to travel around. If Wu Lizhen can't live without him, it's not okay. He also wants to spend more time with Zhuzhu, Daan and Xiaoan after retirement.

Of course, he is not afraid that Wu Lizhen will follow him, because she has not reached retirement age yet.

Wu Lizhen ignored him. If he wanted to misunderstand, just misunderstand him. She was too lazy to explain.

After breakfast, she asked him to go outside to look for his son.

"It's not a problem for Lin'er to stay outside all day long. If you have time today, go find him. Your birthday will be here in two or three days. You don't want to not see your son on your birthday, right? You don't even want it.

Have you seen me looking sad in front of my relatives and friends?"

Xiang's father is a face-saving person. After listening to her words, the last two sentences touched him.

Helpless, I could only nod and compromise: "Okay, I'll look for it after dinner, but I may not be able to find it!"

When Wu Lizhen heard this, she felt much relieved and immediately felt in the mood to help him peel two eggs: "You can eat two more eggs to replenish your body and find someone outside to have the strength to ride a bicycle."

After breakfast, Xiang's father pushed his bicycle out. In the summer morning, even if it was only eight or nine o'clock, the sun hanging in the sky was very strong. The blazing sunlight shone on him. After riding for only a few miles, Xiang's father

I was sweating all over.

The clothes on my back are already stuck to my body. "With my leisure life in retirement, it seems that I can get a motorcycle or a car to travel around."

I rode all the way to Yu Qing’s courtyard.

"Oops! Grandpa, why are you here?" Zhuzhu came out of the backyard carrying fish food. She discovered Xiang's father as soon as he entered the door.

"It's Zhuzhu, are everyone at home?" Xiang's father pushed his bicycle in, wiped the sweat on his face with the towel around his neck, and parked the car under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree on the right side of the gate.

"Grandpa, come in quickly, everyone in the family is at home." Zhuzhu put the fish food in her hand on the stone pier aside, opened the door and let Xiang's father in.

"Zhuzhu, who is here?"

Yu Qing's questioning voice came from the room.

Zhuzhu happily replied: "Grandpa is here."

Father Xiang walked in under the scorching sun. As soon as he entered the house, his eyes were black and blurry. He couldn't see clearly what was going on inside the house, but he was amazed at the comfortable temperature inside.

Xiang Yisen saw that he was sweating profusely, so he stood up and poured him a glass of water: "Dad, come and sit."

Father Xiang glanced at the things on the table and said with a smile, "You are making dumplings."

"My father-in-law is here, come and sit down." Grandma Ruan greeted him with a smile, and explained by the way: "The weather has been very hot these two days. I want to go out to play but I am afraid that my body will not be able to bear it. Staying at home is quite boring. I have no choice but to

Now I can find something to do and make dumplings."

Father Xiang looked at the two large bowls of fillings and exclaimed: "How many dumplings do you need to make with so much meat filling? Can you finish making so many dumplings in one day?"

In such a hot weather, it would be a waste if you can’t finish it!

Yu Qing wrapped a dumpling and smiled: "If we can't finish it today, we will put it in the refrigerator to have for breakfast later."

Father Xiang drank a large glass of water to relieve his thirst. After hearing this, he suddenly realized: "I almost forgot that you bought a refrigerator here. This method is good. You can freeze the dumplings and cook them whenever you want.

eat."

Mr. Ruan placed the wrapped dumplings on the curtain and asked with a smile: "Why did you want to come over and walk around today? But something happened?"

"What can be the matter? I just wanted to come over and see you."

The heat in Father Xiang's body subsided, and his face was sticky. He stood up and said, "You wrap it up first, and I'll wash my face first."

Looking at the fleeing figure, Mr. Ruan said firmly: "There must be something wrong with this kid!"

Xiang Yisen nodded in agreement. His old man must have come to his house to avoid the tigress at home.

As for what?

Is it even necessary to think about it?

It must be about Xiang Yilin.

As for how Old Man Xiang deals with the tigress at home, Xiang Yisen doesn’t care!

Xiang's father didn't know the purpose of his coming here, and his son guessed it very closely.

After washing his face, he happily joined the dumpling-making army. At noon, he ate a large bowl of dumplings in the small courtyard here and had a drink with Old Man Ruan and Xiang Yisen.

I drank some wine and had a good nap.

After waking up, I felt sore and weak all over. This was because I took a nap for too long.

The sun was setting in the west. Old Ruan, who was sitting under the grape trellis drinking tea, saw that he was getting up, so he waved: "My father-in-law, come here and let's kill two dishes."

Father Xiang stretched his waist and said with emotion: "The leisure life in retirement is leisure, but my body seems not used to it yet."

Da'an, who was confronting Xiao An, heard this and didn't understand the meaning. He asked: "Isn't it a good thing that the body is recuperating? Good things also require getting used to?"

"Ha ha."

Everyone in the yard couldn't help laughing after hearing this!

Mr. Ruan rubbed his head without any gentleness: "You don't need to get used to resting. Your grandpa's body is caused by the discomfort caused by taking a nap for too long."

Daan suddenly raised his eyebrows and pushed the chess pieces on the table, "I lost, I can't win anymore. Grandpa, grandpa, I will give this position to you."

Xiao An shook his head helplessly and patiently placed the chess pieces he had pushed around slowly before giving up his position to the two elders.

Father Xiang doesn't spend much time with his two grandsons. Although Da'an and Xiao'an are twins, they have very different personalities. The older one is lively, while the younger one is calm.

He had a better understanding of Xiao An's carefulness and thoughtfulness, "Yes, he is a good boy!"

Mr. Ruan raised his head very proudly: "Qingqing's children are all very good, did you know? Zhuzhu graduated from elementary school this year and was admitted to the No. 1 middle school in our province with the second best ranking in the city!"

"oh!"

Father Xiang looked back in shock at his granddaughter who was sitting aside and reading a book. His cute and well-behaved granddaughter really got the second best score in the province?

"I just heard about it. Why haven't I heard you talk about it in the past two days?"

Zhuzhu raised her head helplessly: "I originally wanted to tell you on your birthday as a surprise. I didn't expect my grandpa to tell you in advance."

"Ahem!"

Old Ruan coughed twice in embarrassment and blamed himself: "It's my fault. I got carried away and grunted in advance."

Zhuzhu shook her head magnanimously: "It's okay. I have to tell grandpa sooner or later. In fact, I have to tell you sooner or later. I don't care."

Grandma Ruan sat aside and slowly shook her fan, while glaring at Mr. Ruan angrily. Now that she has retired, her vigilance has disappeared.

If this kind of thing had been done when he was still in office, this kind of mistake would definitely not have happened.

Mr. Ruan touched his nose nonchalantly and waved to Father Xiang: "Don't talk nonsense, come here and play two games."
