Seeing that Chen Xiuli was about to make a fuss, Yang Tao immediately came up and stopped Chen Xiuli.
"What are you messing around with here? If you weren't making trouble here, would this cake be burnt?"
"You mean it's all my fault?"
Chen Xiuli looked at her husband with an aggrieved look.
"I don't blame you, I don't want to say this." Yang Tao didn't want to fall out with Chen Xiuli, so he didn't dare to say too harsh words.
"Then tell me, I see that your soul has been seduced by this vixen!"
"Don't open your mouth like a vixen, can you shut up like a vixen? I have a name!"
Su Yi wanted to pull off the burnt part of the handle, but she was too anxious and burned her hands.
Yang Caifeng came up to help. This rough old hand had been tempered countless times and was not afraid of getting burned. When she came up, she patted off the burnt ash and wiped the spatula again with a rag dipped in water.
once.
"This is the Chinese New Year, can't we say a few words less?" Yang Caifeng rarely expressed her dissatisfaction to Chen Xiuli, "If you and your husband have anything to do, go to the main room. We are busy cooking here. If we are later, we won't have dinner tonight."
I can’t eat anymore.”
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean?"
Chen Xiuli made so much noise in the kitchen that the whole family had been summoned.
Yang Ling stood at the door, and Yang Jianguo stood behind Yang Ling. He also felt that his daughter-in-law was going too far, so he couldn't help but give his daughter-in-law a lesson.
"Xiuli, don't quarrel during this Chinese New Year. The TV is showing the war, so come back and watch it quickly."
Her father personally spoke softly, and Chen Xiuli couldn't help but continue to cause trouble. She could only glare at her husband angrily and angrily returned to the main room.
Yang Jianguo came in, picked up the tea cup on the stove, and glanced at Su Yi.
"Do you want tea?"
"Second uncle, I don't want to drink."
"Then let Yang Ling pour you a cup later. I will take this cup of tea to Xiuli first."
"good."
Yang Jianguo glared at his son while holding the tea cup, and left with Yang Tao.
Yang Ling came in and asked Su Yi a few questions.
"Is everything okay?"
"It's nothing, it's just a pity that this cake is half burnt."
Yang Caifeng said nonchalantly: "It's okay. This cake is good but just burnt a little. I'll eat this one later."
"Sister-in-law, how many vegetables do you still have to cook? Why don't I help here too?" Yang Ling rolled up her sleeves and stood next to Su Yi, helping her look at the spoons.
Yang Caifeng smiled and said: "Yang Ling, just watch TV. This kitchen is too small, you can't even stand here."
"It's okay, sister-in-law, we can just squeeze in. Leave the burritos to us, you can do other things."
"good."
Yang Caifeng looked at Yang Ling with a smile, these two children were quite good.
Like those at home, whether they are Yang Jianguo and his wife or Yang Tao and his wife, they never offer to help when cooking.
Yang Ling and the others help with housework and cooking every day. They are very active in everything they do. They are different people at first glance.
The three of them were busy in the kitchen, and their progress improved a lot. Finally, around 7 o'clock in the evening, all the meals were prepared and a table was filled.
Chicken, duck and fish are of course indispensable, and the fresh vegetables are fried very crispy and tender, making it very appetizing.
My sister-in-law is really good at cooking, and she does a lot of research on it every day.
When Yang Ling watched her sister-in-law cooking, she praised her neat posture and asked Su Yi to learn a few tricks from her sister-in-law so that they could do it well at home.
The family had been busy for a long time and finally sat down at the table. Yang Caifeng was still cleaning up in the kitchen.
Yang Jianguo took out a bottle of Fenjiu and put it on the table, wiped it around twice, opened the lid and put it down again. He looked at Yang Caifeng who was still busy in the kitchen and said, "Xiao Feng, stop working, come over and eat together."
Yang Caifeng came over after hearing the second brother's greeting, wiped her hands on her apron and said with a smile: "You guys eat first, what are you waiting for me to do? I'll pack over there and come over."
Su Yi took her sister-in-law's hand and asked her to sit next to her: "Sister-in-law, you have to be busy all day. Put those things there first. I will clean them up with you later."
"There's nothing. I'll finish it in a while. You guys can eat first."
Yang Jianguo frowned and said, "Xiaofeng, Su Yi has said so, just sit down."
Yang Caifeng glanced at her second brother, nodded slightly, took off her apron with a smile, and placed it on a small stool aside.
Yang Jianguo placed the washed cups in front of him, picked up the precious bottle of Fenjiu, and poured it one cup at a time.
"This Fenjiu is a high-end wine. I brought it back from outside. It's much better than the Jiangzhou Daqu that costs more than 20 yuan a bottle."
Yang Jianguo poured several cups and distributed them to Yang Jianqiang, Yang Ling, and Yang Tao respectively.
Taking out Fenjiu also means showing off. Yang Jianguo's family works in Shanghai. It's hard work and they make a lot of money. It's better than working as a worker in a steel factory in the county.
Yang Tao picked up the wine glass and took a sip, his face full of intoxication.
"My dad regards this Fenjiu as a treasure. If it weren't for the Chinese New Year today, he wouldn't take it out."
Yang Jianguo said quietly: "It's nothing. It's rare for a family to get together to celebrate the New Year. I'm happy and have a couple of drinks."
Cai Fen, who was on the side, glanced at him and reminded: "You should drink less. At such an old age, you still drink so much every day."
Yang Jianguo nodded and waved his hand to his wife, stopping her desire to continue talking.
"Everyone, let's take a drink as punishment."
Yang Jianqiang raised his glass of wine and was very grateful. He stood up and said to Yang Jianguo: "Thanks to you for everything that happened in our family over the years. As the eldest brother, I have not fulfilled my responsibilities. I will punish you with a drink."
Yang Jianguo pretended not to care and said: "It's okay, as long as I come back."
Yang Jianqiang raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.
"I'm sorry, eldest brother. If you hadn't been eldest brother, you would have been the one who went out. Big brother has been feeling guilty for you for so many years!"
Yang Jianguo smiled and shook his head and said: "Brother, there is no need to mention that I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be living like this now."
Yang Tao looked at Su Yi and said with regret: "Uncle, don't say that, my dad didn't blame you."
When Yang Jianqiang heard what the father and son said, he couldn't help but shed tears.
He had been holding these things in his heart for many years, and he felt very sorry when he thought about his younger brother and his family.
But his own family was in such a situation that he really couldn't find the time to take care of his brother's family affairs.
Yang Jianguo helped his elder brother pour the wine again.
"Brother, if I had gone to the city, I would not have had the opportunity to make money in Shanghai now. Our family members all work in Shanghai now, and we can earn more than 40,000 yuan a year, which is much more than in Jiangcheng.
, you only have a few hundred yuan a month, which is not enough to buy anything."
