Zhao Qingsong and Song Xiaoshan chatted about things between men, or the recent "free market" developments, or what to do to make money...
As Zhao Qingsong's woman, Li Rong must maintain communication with his brother's wife.
She glanced at Song Xiaoshan's wife's belly: "Is she about to give birth?"
"Yeah. In the middle of next month." Song Xiaoshan's wife touched her belly.
As soon as An An got on the bullock cart, she was no longer tied with a strap.
When he saw Song Xiaoshan's wife's bulging belly, he found it very strange, so he leaned over and stretched out his hand to touch it.
Li Rong quickly grabbed An An's little fleshy hand with quick eyes and hands, and said with a serious face: "Don't touch it."
"It's okay, do you want to touch it?" Song Xiaoshan's wife smiled.
The little guy waved his hand: "I won't touch him anymore." Then he leaned into Li Rong's arms obediently.
Li Rong asked: "It's only been a few days, why are you still out?"
It will be next month in a few days, and the middle of the month will be here in the blink of an eye.
Li Rong couldn't understand why a pregnant woman ran outside in the snow and ice.
"I took her to the hospital for a check-up. By the way, I wanted to ask if there are any beds in the hospital. We want to give birth in the hospital." Song Xiaoshan explained, but after he finished speaking, his face looked a little annoyed.
Just as Song Xiaoshan was about to open his mouth to speak, his wife pulled down his sleeve.
He glanced at his wife, sighed, and said, "Forget it, it's nothing."
"If you have anything to say, just say it. Your brother asked you to scream in vain." Zhao Qingsong said solemnly. If Song Xiaoshan's wife hadn't been here and saved his face, he would have kicked her over and left him hesitating.
of.
songs
Zhao Qingsong frowned: "I'll find someone to help you ask tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Song." Song Xiaoshan breathed a sigh of relief, as if Zhao Qingsong would do what he said.
There is no way, he has always been so confident in his brother.
The oxcart drove directly to Zhao's house.
Because he wanted to treat him to a meal, Zhao Qingsong arrived home without even drinking water. After settling Song Xiaoshan and the others, he went to Lijiacun next door.
I plan to invite Zhao Qingliu’s family over for dinner.
Li Rong first put the tube bones in to cook the soup, because it takes a long time to stew out the essence of the bone soup.
Song Xiaoshan's wife was too embarrassed to sit all the time and couldn't sit still. She had a big belly and wanted to come over and help.
Li Rong was so frightened that she said "ouch" and hurriedly stopped her and asked Song Xiaoshan to take her to the main room and sit down.
Song Xiaoshan nodded and said, "Go play with An An, I'm here to help."
He helped his wife back to the main room, and when she came out and walked into the yard, the rest of the Zhao family happened to be returning from work/
Song Xiaoshan touched the back of his neck and said hello one by one.
Everyone else nodded as a greeting.
Zhao's mother hasn't seen Song Xiaoshan for a long time. The last time they met was when he got married.
Seeing him now, I sighed that Song Xiaoshan had matured and grown up.
She regarded Song Xiaoshan as half a son. Seeing that he had changed so much, she looked at Song Xiaoshan with some relief: "Hey, Xiaoshan, why are you here free today?"
"Brother Song asked us to come over for dinner," Song Xiaoshan pointed to the inner room, "My wife is here too and is playing with An An inside."
"Oh, I'll treat you to a meal."
"Well, I heard that my sister-in-law got second place in the exam. Brother Song is so happy." Song Xiaoshan said happily.
"Really? Second place, I am a good boy," Mother Zhao held on to Father Zhao's arm, "His grandfather, did I hear you right?"
Grandpa Zhao's usually serious face showed excitement: "You heard me right, our old Zhao family has a college student!"
He Xing and Zhao Qingyang were equally happy for Li Rong when they heard the news.
Li Rong heard the sound in the kitchen. She was still holding the vegetables in her hand. She walked to the door of the kitchen in a few steps and said loudly: "Mom, dad, brother and sister-in-law, stop cooking. Everything is cooked here. Wait a minute."
eat together."
"Okay." Mother Zhao smiled so hard that wrinkles appeared on her face. She rolled up her sleeves and said, "Let's cook together."
He Xing couldn't just wait, she said, "I'll go too."
The three women were in the kitchen, and Song Xiaoshan was kicked out. He was no longer needed.
He scratched the back of his head: "Okay then."
Li Rong bought a lot of vegetables, which were originally meant to be eaten by more than a dozen people. It took a long time to prepare the vegetables.
Halfway through the cooking, Zhao Qingsong finally came back.
Also returning at the same time was Zhao Qingliu's family.
Zhao Qingliu knew that Li Rong and the others were busy in the kitchen, so he washed his hands and got into the kitchen.
Zhao Qingsong walked into the kitchen with a high-spirited face and wanted to take Li Rong's spoon: "Go and have a rest. You are the oldest today, so I can't let you cook."
"That's what I said just now." Mother Zhao continued and followed Zhao Qingsong's words.
Li Rong dodged Zhao Qingsong's hand: "I'm the eldest, so just listen to me. I'm happy when I cook. Just stay alone. Go chat with the old men. What are you doing hiding in the kitchen?
.”
Zhao's mother and the others laughed after hearing this, Zhao Qingsong also had this day.
In front of all the women in the family, Zhao Qingsong didn't feel embarrassed when Li Rong said this. He touched his nose and was kicked out of the kitchen by Li Rong.
Zhao Qingliu swallowed and asked Li Rong: "I was preparing to cook when I saw my second brother coming over. He looked very happy and said that you came second in the exam and asked us to come over for dinner."
Li Rong smiled: "Zhao Qingsong has a big mouth."
"You are so awesome. If you come second, you will definitely be able to go to a good university." Zhao Qingliu said with a longing look on his face, "After the New Year, I will also send Hehua to study."
He Xing also said: "My younger siblings are still very good. My family is very good at studying, but now they have failed the exam."
Li Rong said: "If you have any homework questions that you don't understand, you can ask me."
She had never thought of teaching a big cow before, mainly because He Xing never mentioned it and no one mentioned it, so she didn't expect it.
"Okay," He Xing looked happy.
I bought a lot of rabbit meat from Li Rong at the supply and marketing cooperative, so I made two flavors, one braised and one spicy.
Braised in soy sauce, it is mainly for children to eat.
Speaking of this, Li Rong remembered the little guy at the supply and marketing cooperative today who said he couldn't eat rabbits.
She told this as a funny story to Mrs. Zhao and the others.
He Xing smiled: "Children won't eat rabbits when they see them cute, but if you cook them and let them eat them, they may not know how delicious they will be."
Li Rong nodded: "I think so too."
There are less vegetables in winter, so I fried winter melon slices with chestnut paste and shredded hot and sour potatoes.
The rest are basically meat dishes.
There are many people dining, so two tables are required.
Zhao Qingsong set the tables in the main room, and the dishes were brought out one after another, filling the table.
Li Dahai exclaimed: "This meal is really rare. I will eat two more bowls of rice later."
Li Rong smiled: "Brother-in-law, I want to eat more food!"
Zhao Qingliu laughed: "That's all your brother-in-law has achieved!"
