When Zhang Dagang returned home with the bucket, Wang Xiuhua was chopping vegetables in the kitchen.
Hearing the news of Zhang Dagang's return, Wang Xiuhua, who had eaten several tomatoes secretly, felt nervous, and the sharp kitchen knife fell on her finger.
"hiss……"
The pain came, and Wang Xiuhua's eyes turned red from the pain.
Looking down with tears in his eyes, he saw a mass of white bones, and a thumb-sized piece of skin on his middle finger had been cut off.
Wang Xiuhua's tears fell in pain, and she felt anxious and panicked.
That was a kitchen knife that had just been used to cut pork. She wouldn't get infected and die, would she?
Wang Xiuhua's mind was filled with Zhang Dagang's generous back. Thinking that she could no longer take care of him, Wang Xiuhua's tears fell even more violently.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with your hand?"
Wang Dagang put down the bucket and then noticed the blood stains on the chopping board.
He took Wang Xiuhua's arm and saw Wang Xiuhua crying in tears.
The woman's nose was twitching from crying, but her usual strong look was nowhere to be seen.
"Dagang, all the money from selling apples during this period has been buried in the corner under dad's window. If I still have dad's medicine, I go to Tongantang in the county to buy it..."
Wang Xiuhua cried and spoke at the same time, fearing that she would speak too slowly and not be able to finish her instructions.
Zhang Dagang listened to what she said one by one, and felt moved and funny at the same time.
He put Wang Xiuhua's injured hand in his palm. Seeing that her white and slender hand was covered with blood, and even a piece of flesh on her middle finger was shaved off, he felt regretful.
With her eyes closed, she mobilized the dragon power in her body to cover Wang Xiuhua's hands.
A faint golden mist poured out from the palm of Zhang Dagang's hand and wrapped it around Wang Xiuhua's bleeding wound. However, the bleeding on her hand stopped after a moment, and the wound began to heal slowly.
Wang Xiuhua was still rambling on, not noticing her scabbed hands at all: "Dagang, in the future, you can't just marry a wife based on her beauty. Beautiful women are the best at lying. You must find someone who cares about the family."
"
In just this moment, Wang Xiuhua had already talked a lot about how a young woman could end up like a mother-in-law.
Dagang looked at her scabbed wound and let out a long sigh.
It is said that a woman is a creature that becomes cuter the more she is pampered. Now it seems that this sentence is indeed true. Not only is she cute, she is also a little silly.
"Sister-in-law, don't be sad, your wounds are already scarred."
When Wang Xiuhua heard Zhang Dagang's words, she subconsciously raised her left hand that was cut off and took a look.
Seeing the dark scars on her fair and slender fingers, Wang Xiuhua burst out laughing with tears in her eyes.
"It scared me to death. I thought I was going to die."
She did not ask why her wounds scarred so quickly, and Zhang Dagang did not explain.
This has become a tacit understanding between the two of them.
Wang Xiuhua's hand was injured, so Zhang Dagang naturally couldn't bear to let her cook again.
noon
The old man's face turned dark as he looked at the fried black and salty vegetables on the plate.
"You brat, you did this, right? I think you beat the salt seller to death."
Zhang Dagang felt a little embarrassed looking at the dark vegetables in front of him. He picked up a chopstick of green vegetables and put it into his mouth, so hard that he almost spit it out.
The family uses a pot on the ground, so it is really difficult for him to cook while cooking.
"Dad, I'm going to fry some tomatoes and scrambled eggs. The tomatoes in the small vegetable garden are ripe. You can wait a little longer."
Wang Xiuhua looked at the unspeakable dishes on the table and had to stand up.
He looked at Zhang Dagang with questioning eyes.
"Okay, I'll go help my sister-in-law."
The two of them walked towards the vegetable garden together. The old man looked at their matching backs and his smile wrinkles deepened a bit.
He is open-minded. Even if Xiuxiu is a widow, she is definitely more than enough to match her brat.
In the vegetable garden, Zhang Dagang looked at the tomatoes that were missing a lot, and his eyes fell on Wang Xiuhua who looked innocent next to him.
"I just wanted to taste it, so I couldn't hold it back."
Zhang Da just smiled and stepped into the vegetable garden to pick the reddest and largest tomatoes.
Looking back at Wang Xiuhua's greedy look, she picked a few more.
"Sister-in-law, is that enough?"
Looking at the dozen or so tomatoes in Zhang Dagang's arms, Wang Xiuhua nodded quickly.
The two of them entered the kitchen. Zhang Dagang washed and cut the tomatoes and then turned around and left the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law, let me go to the henhouse to see if there are any eggs."
As soon as Zhang Dagang left, Wang Xiuhua's eyes were attracted by the bright red tomatoes on the chopping board.
The tomato exuded its unique sweet and sour smell. Wang Xiuhua stretched her head and looked at Zhang Dagang who was squatting next to the chicken coop picking out eggs. She quickly pinched two pieces and stuffed them into her mouth.
Zhang Dagang took the eggs for five minutes, while Wang Xiuhua hid in the kitchen and ate to her satisfaction.
As soon as the tomato scrambled eggs were served, the old man ate an extra bowl of rice while eating the tomato scrambled eggs.
"Hiccup~"
After letting out a long and loud burp, the old man rubbed his belly comfortably.
"Xiuxiu is still very capable. You kid is so blessed that you don't know how to be blessed."
Thinking of the two little guys who were having trouble this morning, the old man wanted to take off his son's head and see what kind of intestines were inside.
What a wonderful wife, if she were given to him, he would definitely not be able to bear it and would be angry.
After finishing the meal, Zhang Dagang quickly packed up the bowls and chopsticks and carried them into the kitchen.
The old man rubbed his swollen belly from eating and moved closer to Wang Xiuhua.
"Xiuxiu, did that boy Dagang bully you?"
Upon hearing what the old man said, Wang Xiuhua suddenly remembered the kiss last night.
The soft touch seemed to still be there, and her face suddenly turned red.
"You two won't..."
The old man still wanted to gossip, but when he remembered his identity, he quickly shut up.
Looking at Wang Xiuhua, whose face was as red as if he was about to bleed, he coughed twice.
"You brat, come here and help me take a few steps."
The old man was small and thin. Zhang Dagang supported the old man effortlessly and walked slowly in the yard with him.
Seeing Wang Xiuhua enter the room, the old man's hand suddenly pinched the soft flesh of Zhang Dagang's waist.
"You brat, did you bully Xiuxiu?"
As soon as the old man asked this question, Zhang Dagang reflexively thought of the kiss last night.
Thinking of Wang Xiuhua's reaction today, Zhang Dagang's face darkened.
"No, my sister-in-law has worked so hard for our family, how could I bully her?"
The old man was so angry when he saw his son with an elm-headed head that he could only pinch the soft flesh around his waist again.
But at this moment, Zhang Dagang, who had inherited the power of the dragon, was full of strength.
The old man's strength was just to tickle him.
Therefore, Zhang Dagang was not able to understand what the old man wanted to express from beginning to end. He just thought that the old man was bored at home every day and wanted to gossip.
Wang Xiuhua stood by the window of the room, listening to Zhang Dagang's explanation to the old man, the expectation on his face dimmed.
