"Don't rush to call me yet." Grandma Su narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the person from beginning to end. Her gaze was so intense that if it were anyone else, she would have been unable to sit still.
Xiao Wei was very calm and elegant, making people look at him.
After a while.
Grandma Su withdrew her gaze and said lightly, "Where are you from?"
"People from the capital."
Upon hearing this place, Grandma Su's expression became a little strange, and she murmured: "Jingcheng, surnamed Xiao, could it be..."
Xiao Wei raised his eyebrows, "Do you know grandma?"
Hearing this, Grandma Su retracted her thoughts, curled her lips, and hummed: "I, an old woman from the countryside, can know anyone from the capital, but you, you don't look like an ordinary person, why do you want to go to the countryside to become an educated youth?"
Don't let it be because she can't see that a family that can raise a child like Xiao Wei should not be underestimated.
Xiao Wei pursed his lips. He could feel Grandma Su's vigilance towards him. He panicked and said, "I came to the countryside to comply with the policy."
Xu Zhiyun didn't believe a word of this.
But this is also people's privacy. If Xiao Wei doesn't want to talk about it, she doesn't want to know. She is not very interested in other people's affairs.
Xu Zhiyun said calmly: "My girl is young and doesn't understand many things. She was wronged by her parents before, which made my old lady feel distressed. Now that she is back with me, anyone who wants to bully her can just try!
"
Speaking of this, there was a hint of coldness in her weathered eyes.
Then he faced Xiao Wei and continued: "Your family must not be simple. I just want my girl to be safe and live a smooth life. Can you understand?"
Xiao Wei's fingers on his lap curled up slightly, and his tone was a little firmer, "Grandma, I won't let her be wronged!"
This is a promise.
Xu Zhiyun was quite satisfied with Xiao Wei's attitude. At least he was not timid when facing himself. "It depends on what you do. I don't want Wanwan to know about our conversation today."
Xiao Wei nodded.
Xu Zhiyun was a little satisfied when she saw the people on their way. She stopped talking directly and said, "Okay, you go and do your work. My old lady is tired and needs to rest."
Looking at the back of the old lady leaving, Xiao Wei's eyes darkened a bit.
Angry? Unhappy?
None of these emotions were present, but Xiao Wei was very happy that his daughter-in-law could have such an elder who truly cared about her.
He stood up.
As soon as they went out, they met Zhou Qinghe and Wang Li.
Zhou Qinghe happily shouted, "Brother Wei."
He knew that Xiao Wei had gone to the commune, and he was thinking that Xiao Wei could bring him mung bean cakes back, so he looked at him eagerly.
Seeing Zhou Qinghe's worthless look, Xiao Wei couldn't guess what he was thinking, and said calmly: "I didn't buy it."
Zhou Qinghe's smile disappeared immediately and he looked at Xiao Wei resentfully.
Woohoo, he really wants to have another bite of mung bean cake!
Xiao Wei pretended not to notice and threw the basket into Zhou Qinghe's hand, "Come pick vegetables with me."
If you want to eat his wife's food, you can't do it if you don't do something!
The two men were about to go to work, and Wang Li didn't want to take any time off, so she hurried to the kitchen.
"Qingwan, do you need any help?"
When Su Qingwan saw Wang Li coming, she naturally didn't want anyone to help her: "Just sit outside for a while and I'll get you a bowl of water."
"Stop working so blindly, you invited me to dinner, how dare I just sit like this," Wang Li liked Su Qingwan more and more as they got along for a long time.
When she thought about what she had brought, she didn't know whether Su Qingwan liked it or not, so she could only smile shyly: "By the way, Zhou Zhiqing and I brought this. I don't know if you like it. Toffee is
Zhou Zhiqing’s dictionary is mine.”
Su Qingwan poured a bowl of water for Wang Li, and only now did she see that the one she was holding was wrapped in cloth, probably to avoid being seen by others.
She took it and saw that it was an English dictionary!
She was a little surprised.
When I moved out of Su's house, I didn't forget to take away my high school textbooks, just because I wanted to take some time to review them.
The college entrance examination will be resumed in 1977, and it is now 1975, which means that she has two more years to prepare than others. She must seize this time difference.
Although the college entrance examination this time did not include English, and only those majoring in foreign languages were required to take an additional test in English, and the score ratio was not very high, Su Qingwan knew the importance of English in the future.
In her previous life, she set up a stall to make food, and later developed it into a store. Because of the reform and opening up, if the country wanted to earn foreign exchange, they opened up the country.
Her food tastes good and it has a good reputation. Of course, people with blue eyes and fair skin come here to eat.
At that time, there was a man named Allen who especially liked to eat the food she made and also liked Chinese culture. He would go to her place every two days.
It was then that Su Qingwan started learning English. Su Qingwan's spoken English was definitely good and she could communicate normally with Allen. However, she was a little behind in the written test.
Now that she has another life to live, Su Qingwan not only wants to make up for her regrets, but also wants to live a meaningful life. This English dictionary has stimulated her motivation to learn!
Su Qingwan touched the dictionary and couldn't put it down, "Thank you Wang Li, I like this gift very much."
Seeing that Su Qingwan really liked her, Wang Li breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on her face became more obvious. She said, "If you don't understand anything, you can ask me. Let's communicate and make progress together!"
"
The friendship between two lesbians has become closer because of an English dictionary.
Su Qingwan carefully put the dictionary away and asked Wang Li to rest outside first and call her when it was time to eat.
Seeing that Su Qingwan really didn't need her help, Wang Li stopped insisting.
There were five people dining at night, and two bowls of meat were the hard part. No matter how it tasted when it was put on the table, it was the best dish at this time.
After washing a whole piece of pork belly, Su Qingwan added seasonings and steamed it. This step was more time-consuming, but she could just do other things. The last time she made the pork trotters was braised, this time she changed it to stew.
.
The pig's trotters soup is also delicious. It's stewed to a pulp, and with its meaty texture, it tastes a bit like jelly.
After both dishes were cooked, Su Qingwan brought a small stew pot and put the pig's trotter soup into the casserole. The free pot can be used for stir-frying. The sour cowpeas can be used to stir-fry before cooking.
A portion of roasted eggplant and a large pot of rice. If the four dishes are large, it can be enough for five people, not to mention that there are two hard dishes.
After the pork belly was almost steamed, Su Qingwan took it out and cut it into pieces of the same size. Not to mention that she made rapid progress during this period, and her knife skills were already very reliable by cutting waste paper.
Everyone can make braised pork, but making it delicious is a technical job. Su Qingwan put in all the seasonings and added water. After the pot boiled, she threw the meat in to add color and flavor, and stewed it for a while.
Collect the juice and it’s done.
It's almost six o'clock when everything is done.
When she was halfway done, Grandma Su entered the kitchen, took a look at some of the dishes Su Qingwan had cooked, and then took a look at the braised pork. She nodded with satisfaction, then seemed to have thought of something, and turned toward Su.
Qingwan Road.
"Director Sun's people are coming the day after tomorrow. You have to seize this opportunity."
