Fresh rice makes porridge more fragrant, not to mention that the rice used by Xu Weiguo is grown at the Mysterious Farm.

To put it bluntly, Xu Weiguo’s porridge is definitely the freshest and most fragrant porridge in the world!

Including the deaf old lady, there were four people in total. Xiaoya was held in Du Yue's arms. Each of them had a bowl of rice porridge and a hard-boiled egg. Although it was a little simple, everyone enjoyed it!

"Today is a little simpler. I will steam some white flour steamed buns and make some pickles tomorrow to ensure that everyone eats more deliciously!"

Xu Weiguo talked about his next plan while eating.

As soon as the deaf old lady heard this, she immediately stopped and said quickly: "Idiot Xu, are you having a hard time?"

"When I come to your place for a meal, I don't expect a sumptuous meal. Besides, this breakfast is already very good and nutritious. I eat white flour steamed buns every day. You can't imagine that!"

"If you continue to behave like this, I won't dare continue to eat at your place, old lady. If your family is ruined, others will stab me in the spine! I don't want to end up with an old age and a bad reputation!"

In fact, the deaf old lady was right. In the 1960s, unlike the new world, breakfast was far from idle and rich.

Being able to have a bowl of porridge and an egg for breakfast is already far better than most families.

In the 1960s when supplies were scarce, not everyone could afford white-flour steamed buns. Eating white-flour steamed buns every meal was one of many people's vision for a better life!

Normally, we eat steamed buns, corn pancakes, etc. made from cornmeal.

Yesterday it was stewed chicken and fish, today it was rice porridge and eggs, and tomorrow there were white flour steamed buns. For the deaf old lady, who was born in the late Qing Dynasty and grew up in troubled times, this was simply a prodigal act. How could she not feel distressed and upset?

!

Xu Weiguo also thought of this and quickly said with a smile: "Of course we have to live a good life, and we have to live a good life!"

"Don't worry, old lady, I know what I know, just feel free to eat!"

Seeing Xu Weiguo's affirmative words, the deaf old lady looked at Du Yue. When she saw that Du Yue had no reaction, the deaf old lady began to eat with suspicion.

Maybe it was the rice porridge, the eggs were so fragrant that the deaf old lady forgot to continue saying that Xu Weiguo was a prodigal.

The deaf old lady had breakfast in peace, and Xu Weiguo was relieved. He was also worried that the old lady would break the casserole and ask for the truth, which would not be easy for him to explain.

Xu Weiguo took the initiative to take Xu Xiaoya from Du Yue's arms and said, "Daughter-in-law, you have to go to work later, so hurry up and eat first."

"Xiaoya, follow me and eat."

"Yes." Du Yue nodded obediently, her face full of happiness.

The deaf old lady raised her head and glanced at Xu Weiguo and Du Yue with a smile.

Xu Weiguo was thick-skinned and didn't react at all, but Du Yue immediately blushed, even her ears and neck were red, and she just buried her head in eating porridge.

Xu Xiaoya was eating porridge, and Xu Weiguo peeled the eggs, divided them into several pieces and put them in Xu Xiaoya's bowl.

Seeing Xu Weiguo's family enjoying themselves happily and harmoniously, the deaf old lady smiled happily.

"Idiot Xu, do you know why I want to come to your house for dinner, old lady?"

Faced with the deaf old lady's question, Du Yue asked with some confusion: "Old lady, didn't you decide to come here because Wei Guo's cooking is better than that of the first uncle, Si Zhu?"

The deaf old lady shook her head slightly, "Yes and no."

Du Yue was stunned for a moment.

Xu Weiguo came to his senses and said with a smile: "The old lady is checking me out! She wants to see if I have really recovered."

"The old lady has walked more roads than we have eaten, and she will not change her mind just because the food I cook is delicious."

"Her real purpose is to see if I am sincere to you two!"

After saying that, Xu Weiguo looked at the deaf old lady, "Am I right, old lady?"

Hearing this, Du Yue suddenly realized, turned to look at the deaf old lady, and asked with some emotion: "Old lady, is what Wei Guo said true?"

The deaf old lady did not shake her head or nod, but looked at Xu Weiguo and said in a deep voice: "Weiguo, you can return to normal. To be honest, I am very happy. Du Yue is a good girl and a good wife. From this point on

From the moment she stepped into the courtyard, it became clear to me that she was as innocent as that girl Lou Xiao'e."

"The old lady has always thought that Du Yue, Lou Xiao'e were just unlucky to marry you and Xu Damao, and I feel unworthy of them both. But now, Du Yue is undoubtedly luckier than Lou Xiao'e."

"One more thing, men stand upright. Now that you are back to normal, you can no longer stay at home like a fool. I am familiar with Director Wang from the street office. When she comes to see me, I will ask her. See

Let’s see if I can arrange a job for you so that you have something to do!”

What it means to have an elder in a family is like having a treasure, and it becomes clear at this time.

When Xu Weiguo returns to normal, the biggest problem is to solve the work problem.

It’s not that Xu Weiguo’s family can’t survive without a job. This is naturally impossible. After all, Du Yue works alone to support the family.

The problem is that if a man in his right mind and with sound limbs doesn't work, he will be talked about behind his back.

In the 1960s, men who "eat soft food" would be looked down upon by others, instead of being worshiped like those in the New World who "eat soft food but hard work", "Young people don't know how good a rich woman is" and other new concepts.

Xu Weiguo doesn't have the ability to change the world right now, so he has to consider these things, so it is still very important to find a job on the surface.

The deaf old lady naturally saw this, so she took the initiative to use her personal connections to find a job for Xu Weiguo.

Xu Weiguo understood that the elder's gift was indispensable, and then nodded, "Thank you, old lady, but I need to take Xiaoya to work together. I don't know if there is anyone suitable."

Du Yue listened on the side and said quickly: "Weiguo, let me take care of Xiaoya. Just go to work with peace of mind."

Xu Weiguo shook his head, "In the past, you had to take care of your children, take care of me, and go to work in the steel rolling mill. Now that I have recovered, I can't go back to this. From today on, you can work in the steel rolling mill with peace of mind. Xiaoya will follow me.

I'll take care of it!"

"I will take care of the work matters."

Listening to Xu Weiguo's firm and powerful words, Du Yue felt full of security.

The deaf old lady nodded happily, "Like a man, Director Wang of the Street is a nice person and is very concerned about your situation. She will be very happy if she knows that you have recovered."

Xu Weiguo nodded. Director Wang, the deaf old lady, is the director of the street office of the street to which the courtyard belongs. He is equivalent to the mayor of a township and is responsible for managing the entire street.
