Chapter 278

Getting along

Xiang Yisen picked up a chopstick dish and put it in Yu Qing's bowl. He sneered when he heard this, "Don't be so sentimental, we eat like this every day at home. We are not like you, who earn high-end wages but eat like pig food."

"

Yu Qing's head turned black when she heard this. When did Xiang Yisen speak so bluntly?

She politely picked up some bacon and eggs with serving chopsticks and put them into Father Xiang's bowl. "Dad, don't listen to his nonsense. We usually can't cook so many dishes. We can only have one meat and one vegetable at most."

After listening to Yu Qing's words, Xiang's father felt much better and explained to her: "We don't eat badly in the capital. We can eat corn flour and sweet potato noodles, but most of the time we still eat corn flour and white flour. Occasionally a month."

It will be stained with meat and fish a few times."

Xiang Yisen looked at him with a complicated look, and then said in a confused tone: "I think most people eat sweet potato flour and corn flour, white flour? I have seen it during the New Year. Is it possible to see it? How many times a month does it taste meaty? Every time

Just one or two pieces of meat cooking a big pot of food, is that called eating meat and fish?"

Yu Qing was surprised that her father-in-law lived in such a tight life in the capital, "How much does dad earn per month?"

Xiang Yisen looked at Father Xiang rebelliously, "Ask him."

Father Xiang seemed to have become accustomed to this way of talking between father and son. He pushed up the frame of his glasses and said unhurriedly: "One hundred and fifty, and there are some other benefits every month."

"One hundred and fifty, which is equivalent to the salary of the two of us. The income is good."

The salary at the power station is already high, and Xiang's father is twice as much as them. She believes that other benefits should not be bad, so how can the food be so poor?

Father Xiang said modestly: "The family has a heavy burden. There are still several children in school."

Xiang Yisen sneered from the side, but did not say anything this time.

"Yisen hasn't told me about the family situation yet. Dad, how many younger brothers and sisters are there in the family?" Yu Qing was also curious about how heavy the burden was on the Xiang family.

"A younger sister graduated from junior high school this year, and a younger brother is only four years old this year. When I'm not at home, it's your mother..."

"Ahem..."

Xiang Yisen coughed, and Xiang's father immediately changed his words, "Usually your aunt takes care of the housework."

Yu Qing was even more confused. The burden of such a high salary for two children was not heavy. "Auntie doesn't have a job?"

Father Xiang shook his head, "No, she also has her own job."

Yu Qing had a lot of thoughts. This was her father-in-law's housework. She didn't want to ask more questions and hurriedly asked him to eat more vegetables.

Seeing that his wife stopped asking, Xiang Yisen had something to say, "Qingqing, you don't know, the most common thing they eat at home is boiled cabbage and pickles. After eating, you don't have to bother to wash the bowl, just clean it with water."

Just flush it and it will be clean.”

"Eating these oily and waterless vegetables every day is difficult for the human body. It is harmful to health." Yu Qing looked at Xiang's father and advised.

But in my heart I felt pity for Xiang's father. He married such a daughter-in-law who didn't know how to care for her, and his life was worse than death.

You are obviously earning a golden salary but living the life of an ordinary worker. What is the purpose of working hard for several years?

Father Xiang nodded. He couldn't talk too much about the troubles at home with his daughter-in-law who had just passed away. He would understand it later.

This meal was the most delicious meal that Mr. Xiang had ever had since he came out of the research institute. His stomach was full and he was still a little unsatisfied.

Yu Qing felt happy when she saw that he was enjoying the meal. Fortunately, she had brought the bacon from home.

Thinking of the chickens she bought today, she said to Xiang Yisen: "When you take a lunch break, remember to kill a hen. We will make chicken soup for dinner at night."

Xiang's father had just eaten bacon at noon. Hearing that they were going to kill a chicken in the afternoon, he hurriedly stopped him, "Keep the chicken and eat it slowly. We only ate the meat at noon. Don't kill it in the afternoon."

He looked at the chickens in the chicken coop, which must have cost the children a year's worth of meat tickets.

"You are overthinking. We killed the chickens to entertain Grandma Qingqing, not for you." Xiang Yisen choked.

Why are these words so unpleasant? Yu Qing discovered that after Xiang's father came, Xiang Yisen was like a hedgehog covered with thorns, and his usual aloof persona completely collapsed.

"Grandma?" Xiang's father looked at Yu Qing doubtfully.

Only then did Yu Qing remember that she hadn't told Father Xiang about this yet, and hurriedly explained: "Well, we are going to have a banquet on May Day. I don't have any elders here to take care of it, so some things are inconvenient, so my grandma came over in advance to help me arrange it."

Thinking of seeing his in-laws grandma in the evening, Father Xiang sat upright and nodded, "Yes, of course, my in-laws' grandma is here, we should treat her warmly."

Yu Qing saw that it was not difficult to communicate with this father-in-law, and she was afraid that he would mind what Xiang Yisen said just now, so she chuckled and said: "Well, the chicken soup is not all for my grandma. Dad has suffered a lot in these years, so he should take good care of himself.

"

"You have worked hard, so you should make up for it." Xiang's father felt warmed by Yu Qing's ironing.

"That night our whole family will make up for each other." It's good to have a reasonable father-in-law.

Xiang Yisen saw that they were getting along well, so he got up to clear the dishes. Yu Qing quickly got up to help, and they went to the kitchen together with the dishes.

Father Xiang smiled and watched the young couple helping each other with housework, and he was even more satisfied with Yu Qing who could change his son.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Yu Qing packed up another bedroom on the second floor and made the bed. She planned to use this room for her grandma to live in for the next few days.

One bedroom downstairs is now occupied by Xiang's father, and the other is reserved for Ruan Zheng.

As for Xiang Yisen, he will either go to live at the construction site or sleep in the same room with Ruan Zheng or Xiang's father for the next few days.

By the time she tidied up the two bedrooms and returned to her own bedroom, Xiang Yisen was already lying on the bed and asleep.

Yu Qing noticed the blue color under his eyes and didn't dare to wake him up. To be honest, she didn't sleep well last night. She yawned and was pulled into Xiang Yisen's arms as soon as she lay down.

Take a nap in the afternoon and enjoy the quiet time indoors.

After getting up from a nap, Xiang Yisen went to boil water and kill chickens. Xiang's father sat in front of the living room and drank tea.

Seeing that he had nothing to do, Yu Qing brought the radio cassette player that he had brought back in the morning to him and said, "Dad, if you are bored, you can listen to the radio."

"Ah, did you buy this?" Father Xiang really didn't notice that there was a cassette player at home.

"Well, Ichimori gave me a betrothal gift."

Yu Qing helped him plug in the plug and let him adjust the channel by himself.

And she herself entered the side room while the father and son were not paying attention, and put out two boxes of apples she bought online last time. Now that there are elders in the family, they always have some snacks and fruits.

In the afternoon, I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some melon seed candies and glutinous rice sticks.

In fact, the elderly need to be coaxed just like children.

Just like Father Xiang, if there were snacks and fruits at home just now, he would not be so dull when drinking tea.

By the time Xiang Yisen finished cooking the chicken and stewed it, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

"Comrade Xiang, let Dad watch the chicken stew on the stove. Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things first, and then go to the train station to pick up my grandma."

"Okay." Xiang Yisen agreed directly without asking what she wanted to buy.

"Okay, I'll carry the bag."
