Reborn since 2005

Chapter 107 The aura of a housewife

Yan Xin was just being polite.

After all, in the countryside, it is extremely rude to not leave anyone to eat when dinner time comes.

But he didn't expect Feng Xi to agree so readily.

Not only was he stunned, but even Yan's father was stunned, feeling that this girl seemed a little unruly.

Yan Xin reminded Feng Xi: "If you stay here to eat, your family won't talk about you, right?"

Feng Xi said: "My parents are not at home today. They went to my grandpa's house. Grandpa's house is killing the New Year pig today. They will not come back until tomorrow."

Yan Xin knew that her grandfather's house was also in this town, but it was separated by several villages and it would take half a day to walk there.

She was alone at home and had to cook alone when she went back. It was really not as convenient as staying here for a meal.

Having said that, there is nothing else to say.

Then I introduced her to Dad Yan: "Dad, she is from Group 6 of our village. Her name is Feng Xi. Her brother and I are classmates. I went out to work with his brother this year and we have a good relationship."

Feng Xi also said: "I came here this time to ask about my brother's work outside."

Dad Yan was a little surprised: "Your brother didn't come home for the New Year?"

"No." Feng Xi looked a little disappointed.

Yan Xin explained: "Her brother went to his future father-in-law's house to celebrate the New Year and will not come back until after the New Year."

He said and laughed.

Feng Xi couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

Dad Yan originally planned to use the leftovers from the morning to make hot pot base at noon, and then add some Chinese cabbage, and the father and son would just have a casual meal in the hot pot.

But when a guest came, he couldn't be so perfunctory, so he said: "You guys chat, I'll go catch two crucian carps."

Yesterday, my son's partner came to visit us, and we wanted to have a grand ceremony, so we caught four large crucian carps, as well as bacon and other things.

The only one staying here for dinner today is the sister of my son's classmate. She is an ordinary guest. Meat dishes are a must, but two large crucian carps are enough.

Feng Xi smiled sweetly: "Thank you, uncle, sorry for bothering you."

After a while, Yan’s father caught two large crucian carps with a net bag. Feng Xi stopped sitting and stood up and said:

"Uncle, just rest, I will do this."

Father Yan felt that this was not good and said: "You are a guest, just rest, I will do it."

Feng Xi insisted: "I should do it, otherwise I will become a freeloader."

Yan Xin also supported Feng Xi: "Dad, just rest and we will do it."

This is not to say that I feel sorry for his father, it is mainly about his cooking skills.

Feng Xi started cooking when he was eight or nine years old. In terms of cooking skills, he surpassed his father by several ways.

Feng Xi didn't just talk. While talking, he found a net basin and put the two fishes into the net basin. After finding the kitchen knife, he started working, as skillfully as if he were at home.

Dad Yan could only rest and sighed in his heart: "They say girls nowadays are spoiled and pampered, but they don't look like it. The one who came yesterday and the one today will take the initiative to cook, and

He looks like he cooks a lot."

Feng Xi's proficiency in handling crucian carp puts Father Yan to shame. It's really not on the same level.

She is still just a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old.

Just like yesterday, one holds the spoon and the other lights the fire.

Yan Xin was still the one lighting the fire, but it was Feng Xi who was in charge.

Feng Xi entered housewife mode from the moment she held the kitchen knife.

Not only did he do it himself, but he also directed Yan Xin to do this and that.

After a while: "Yan Xin, wash some garlic sprouts for me, I want to use them!"

After a while: "Yan Xin, where is the oil and salt? Find it for me."

After a while: "Yan Xin, take out the soy sauce."

After a while: "Yan Xin, is there any jealousy at home?"

The moment she picked up the kitchen knife, she became the undisputed king in the kitchen, also known as a housewife.

Yan Xin cooperated, but he had some doubts in his heart:

"Why does this scene feel so familiar? Did she develop her habit of bossing around when cooking at this time?"

With the experience of cooperation in the previous life, I can handle it.

While cooking rice and dishes, I also moved the charcoal fire in the broken iron pot to the small iron stove. In another small pot, I poured the leftovers from the morning into it, added some water, and added the Chinese cabbage.

Had a small hot pot.

When the rice is cooked, the dishes are ready.

Yan Xin took a sip, and the taste was so familiar, it was the taste of his ex-wife.

In a trance, it seemed like I was back in my previous life.

Father Yan praised Feng Xi's cooking skills again, and took out the complimentary words he used on Xiao Shiyu yesterday and used them on Feng Xi.

People who have not read much have limited vocabulary and can only repeat a few sentences over and over again, which are simple, straightforward, and without any new ideas.

It can be said that there is no skill, it is all emotion.

After finishing the meal, Feng Xi took the initiative to clear away the dishes and chopsticks without being able to stop him.

After the meal, Feng Xi did not leave immediately, and asked Yan Xin about Feng Chen's part-time job.

Dad Yan listened for a while and then left.

He couldn't participate in such a topic, so he went to other people's houses to warm themselves by the fire and talk about farming matters in the coming year.

Yan Xin told Feng Xi some of the things he knew about the contractor who wanted to take away the project funds and ran away. He told how he discovered it, and then told Feng Chen how they solved it.

problematic.

It was also mentioned that Feng Chen’s master and future father-in-law had already won the support of most of the workers on the construction site, and had reached an agreement with the construction company. If nothing unexpected happened, he would be the new contractor when construction starts after the New Year.

With such a master, Feng Chen has a bright future.

Feng Chen must have told this to his family, so when Feng Xi listened, the expression on his face did not change much.

But when Yan Xin mentioned that Feng Chen often went out with his master to take on private work, and earned two to three thousand yuan in private work money in addition to the wages at the construction site, Feng Xi became indignant:

"Is there such a thing? He never said anything! Fortunately, I asked you!"

Yan Xin was stunned: "Didn't he say that?"

"I haven't said anything!" Feng Xi said, "Not a word of the content has been revealed!"

Yan Xin was secretly happy and said with a smile: "Maybe he wants to save some private money."

"How can this be done?" Feng Xi said, "Now the family still owes a debt of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. As a son, shouldn't he use all the money he earns to pay off the debt? He still saves private money, that is simply too much.

It’s outrageous!”

Yan Xin couldn't help but said: "There are many places for men to spend money outside, so it is understandable to save some private money. Besides, haven't you also saved some private money?"

"That's different," Feng Xi said confidently, "He is the son and I am the daughter. Everything in the family must be given to him, and he should also bear such obligations. I have always been a target of rejection, and I am married.

You are just an outsider, so of course you have to think about yourself."

Yan Xin gave a thumbs up: "What you said makes so much sense!"

I recommend a book, a historical article - "Rebirth of the Fiery Years: Let the Passion Burn". If you like it, you can read it.
