Chapter 5 Quarrel

Just at this time, Lihua came in: "Daohua, Linghua, two lazy girls! Get dressed quickly and get up to eat!"

While Daohua tried her best to suppress the urge to buy some clothes from the supermarket, she resisted the discomfort and put on her empty-shell cotton jacket and empty-shell cotton trousers, while asking Lihua:

"Sister, Second Aunt and the others are arguing so early in the morning, what are they arguing about?"

Linghua pouted, rubbed her eyes with her small fists, and acted coquettishly at Lihua with a confused face: "No, no, I haven't woken up yet."

Lihua leaned over and lifted Linghua's upper body out of the bed with three strokes. She held her back and helped her sit firmly. While quickly putting on her cotton-padded jacket, she didn't forget to respond to Daohua's question:

"What else could it be because of? How could they not quarrel any day? Isn't it a coincidence that they both have to cook? They are fighting to use the big kitchen first! If you ask me, if you have this time to chat, you can eat as much as you want.

It’s done!”

In the old Xia family, the whole family ate together, and the four daughters-in-law took turns cooking.

Just steam the wild vegetable and millet cake on the curtain, boil a large pot of porridge, cut into half a pickle dumpling, and the whole family's breakfast is ready.

But now that we have separated our families, we can no longer eat like this.

Since we don't eat in one place, cooking is naturally done on a first-come, first-served basis.

People with big houses usually live in the town and don't need a big kitchen.

The people in the fourth bedroom got up early, and the second and third bedrooms hadn't woken up yet. Xia Youtian and Mrs. Jiang had already brought back all the water they would need for the day. Then Mrs. Jiang made breakfast, and Lihua helped, and both of them were very agile.

, breakfast will be on the table in less than a quarter of an hour.

As Lihua said, she dressed Linghua, put on her shoes, and helped her jump off the kang. Daohua was also dressed neatly, and she climbed down from the kang obediently.

Lihua casually folded the quilt into tofu pieces and stuffed it into the kang cabinet. Then she took a kang broom and swept the kang surface. In the blink of an eye, the big kang was spread out.

Lilisuosuo.

The three little girls held hands and came to the main room to have breakfast together.

The table has already been set up in the main room.

The yellow rice noodles and sticky bean buns on the table are steaming hot, a large bowl of slimy millet porridge exudes an alluring aroma, the pickles are shredded finely, a few drops of sesame oil is added, and the food is mixed with it.

A little chopped green onion... just looking at it, it tastes delicious!

Xia Youtian and Jiang have already eaten.

When Goro saw Lihua and the others coming, he stood up in a hurry and called them to come to the table.

Lihua took the water chestnut flower and the rice flower, pulled the two little girls aside, and asked them to wash their hands with the hot water from the steamed cakes in the morning. She also used a hot towel to wipe the little sisters' faces one by one before letting them go.

They came to the table to eat.

This is the first time for the fourth-fang family to sit together and have breakfast together affectionately.

Before the family was divided, the entire Xia family would eat together at every meal.

The old man and the old lady had a small kang table alone, and the others were at a table for men, a table for women, and a table for half-grown children.

If it was the fourth room's turn to cook, Mrs. Jiang would have to take pear blossoms and rice blossoms with her to keep busy, while the grandson Wulang and the younger Linghua could sit down at the children's table first.

Xia Daohua sincerely felt that it was still more comfortable for the whole family to sit together and eat together.

In her previous life, she ate alone most of the time.

The memories of occasionally eating and drinking with friends, eating with my boss and colleagues at work a few years ago, and eating with my family are long gone.

Her parents divorced when she was very young. After they remarried, they seemed to have forgotten that they had a daughter. Her grandfather spent some important moments in her life with her.

Later, her grandfather passed away, and she was completely alone.

The reason why she has the dream of opening a supermarket is because when she was a child, she liked to go to the small shop at the entrance of the village. Her grandfather once said more than once that he should save some money and open a small supermarket for her in the future, so that she can eat whatever she wants.

You can eat whatever you want.

Xia Daohua raised her head and blinked back the tears that almost fell.

Traveling back to ancient times, even though there were all kinds of bad things and discomforts, there was at least one good thing - she finally had a family who cared about her.

The family sat together warmly and happily ate breakfast. While eating, they quietly listened to the noise coming from the big kitchen.

The second mother-in-law was unhappy because of the separation of the family. The third mother-in-law had always been very demanding and refused to let others go. It turned out that before the family was separated, the two of them would fight every now and then.

Now that there is a "legitimate reason", it is even more quarrelsome.

Mrs. Jiang took two sips of porridge to cushion her stomach, then stood up and wanted to go over and break up the fight.

Lihua threw her chopsticks angrily: "You're not allowed to go!"

Mrs. Jiang suddenly felt angry and funny: "Lihua, why are you so insignificant? You actually care about your mother?"

Xia Youtian also frowned: "Lihua, why are you talking to your mother?"

Lihua said angrily: "Mom, why are you so nosy? If people want to quarrel, then just quarrel! As soon as you go to break up the fight, won't the anger from both sides be directed at you?"

Wulang also nodded in agreement, and although his tone was calm, his complaints were harsher than Lihua:

"Yes, mother, both of them can't understand people and can't tell a good guy from a bad guy. If you go to break up the fight, people won't see your good intentions, and they might even make it up to you to just watch the fun.

.You, it’s better not to be tired from this and eat well!”

Daohua winked at Linghua, and the two of them rushed to Jiang's side, one on the left and one on the right, each of them grabbed an arm and held on:

"Mom, don't go, stay and eat!"

"Mom, don't go, Linghua is afraid..."

Seeing that the children's attitudes were so consistent, Xia Youtian also spoke: "The children are right. Hurry up and sit down to eat."

Although Xia Youtian didn't talk much, one sentence he said was more effective than ten thousand words spoken by the children.

After hearing this, Ms. Jiang felt a little uneasy, but she still sat down. She picked up her chopsticks, picked up a sticky bean bun, took two bites, then slowly ate the shredded pickles and drank the porridge slowly.

Seeing that Mr. Jiang finally listened to the advice, the children breathed a sigh of relief. Daohua and Linghua also returned to their places.

Xia Daohua picked up the yellow rice noodles and sticky bean buns and tasted them. There was a slight bitterness in the soft, glutinous and sweet taste, but it could not cover up the rough and rich aroma of grains.

The taste of the bean paste is also very good, with a strong bean flavor, a bit of natural fishy smell, chew it carefully, and a slight sweetness, but obviously, no sugar is added.

"It's so delicious!" Xia Daohua praised sincerely.

"Are they delicious? We got these beans together in autumn! Do you remember Daohua?" Lihua asked cautiously.

Don’t miss it if you’re passing by. You’ve come here, just vote before you go! (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ
