The beautiful stepmother from the 80s is loved by the whole family!

Chapter 48 I am useful!

Su Mian kneaded the dough, and the rough dough became smooth and delicate in her hands in a short while.

I don’t know if it’s because I ate less last night, but I was a little hungry last night, but I could still bear it.

As soon as I woke up this morning, I got up without even staying in bed for half an hour. I didn’t even check on breakfast and went straight to prepare the flour to knead.

It was only until Jiang Zhe peeled the egg and put it to his mouth that he reluctantly ate it. He was so greedy and hungry that he couldn't stop himself.

Seeing that it was almost done, he began to direct the three people who were watching motionlessly nearby.

"Okay, okay, eldest brother, go light the fire, and second brother, go get four eggs."

"Jiang Zhe, go wash the pot and boil half a pot of water. Be careful not to get it dirty. Wash some vegetables while you're at it."

All of a sudden, the people who were watching nearby started to get busy.

There were two small ones before, but now there are more big ones to watch over them.

He shook his head helplessly.

As he spoke, he pulled the noodles and placed them on a plate, covered them with a damp towel and set them aside.

Considering Jiang Zhe's appetite, they prepared more noodles, and the two kids knew it.

There was still a small amount of dough left after kneading, but looking at the large amount, I gave up and continued making the noodles.

Let's see what to do later, time will never be wasted.

Once the water boils, you can put the noodles into the pot and cook them directly. This kind of pulled noodles must be eaten immediately after being pulled, otherwise they will become stiff and cracked.

Moreover, the taste will not be so good if it is left for a long time, and it will not taste as good as freshly pulled ones.

Or maybe it’s because my cooking skills are not good, so I can only pull and eat it right after it’s been cooked.

Jiang Ye was an expert at making fire, and soon the water in the pot began to boil and bubble. "Mom, the water is boiling."

Su Mian quickly blanched the vegetables in oil and put them in each person's bowl, considering that Jiang Zhe ate more.

So Jiang Qing directly took out a soup bowl, which was bigger than his face.

Jiang Qing also noticed her mother's gaze and looked at her father again.

"Dad eats a lot, so this is just right for him."

It’s very big for them, but just right for dad, as it’s enough to feed them and he doesn’t have to run back and forth.

But after all, this is used to hold soup, and cannot be used all the time.

"Next time, Mom, please buy Dad a special bowl for eating rice and a special bowl for eating noodles."

"Buy a bigger one, otherwise dad won't have enough to eat." He gestured as he said this.

Jiang Zhe had a gloomy face, but seeing that they all had their own bowls, he still wanted one.

I found out when I came back that they all had their own bowls, but I was holding just an ordinary bowl.

Ahem. "Sure, Mianmian, buy me one next time."

Su Mian picked up the vegetables and put them in the noodles to start cooking. It was simple. "Okay, I'll buy some good ones next time I go to the city."

However, if you buy him a noodle bowl, he will use it as a rice bowl, and a soup bowl as a noodle bowl.

It took me two visits to buy the right one. There aren’t many good-looking bowls nowadays, and I don’t like the tacky ones.

Jiang Qing smiled. "Mom, buy Dad the big rooster. It's pretty."

Su Mian poked his head. He still remembered the rooster bowl and seemed to be missing it very much.

Looking at him, he started to tease her. "I should have bought you a big rooster. You keep talking about it."

It's a good opportunity to free up your current bowl. Let me see what I can do with it.

Jiang Qing was really anxious this time, he couldn't touch his bowl. "No, no, no, I don't want it, mom. I just made a suggestion."

"If you don't change your bowl, I won't change it either." He stared at his bowl guiltily, afraid that it would be taken away.

Jiang Ye patted his brother's shoulder calmly and nodded, feeling that this was a feasible idea, as he had recommended it to himself in the first place.

He must like it... Haha!

The water in the pot boiled quickly. Su Mian saw it and scooped a bowl of cold water into it, and the boiling water instantly calmed down.

"Alright, alright, stop messing around, everyone go out first, I'll be done soon." "Remember to bring the pickles and the chili sauce." As he spoke, his saliva was flowing wildly.

My stomach also protested. I looked at the time and it was already half past ten. I had been busy for quite a while.

It’s quite early now. Luckily I had informed you in advance last night. I’ll eat less for breakfast today and cook noodles for you when I wake up.

To prevent them from being too full and unable to eat, but it’s okay to eat too full, you can just light a fire and cook some food at noon.

But they were surprisingly unanimous and were all waiting for him.

Soon Jiang Zhe came out with a big bowl of noodles, carefully, followed by two little guys of the same type.

As soon as Su Mian washed her hands, she came out and started eating. She had a bowl of noodles topped with a fried egg and green vegetables.

Even noodles in clear soup, served with spicy pickled cabbage and chili sauce, are the best choice for her breakfast.

I'm from the south, but I like spicy food.

In the afternoon, Jiang Zhe went straight outside the yard to start working on the flower bed. He started working with rustling sounds, and bricks and cement were delivered early in the morning.

Shazi also went to the river in the morning and brought back two baskets of fish. He also dug up a dozen river clams and brought them back.

"I found this while digging in the sand. There's quite a lot of it. Can I eat it?"

As he spoke, he mixed the cement and dug a small ditch on the ground, pouring the cement into it to consolidate it.

Lay the bricks upwards little by little.

Su Mian also found it interesting and watched from the side, asking some small questions from time to time.

I also know that there are many problems involved in building a small flower garden.

It also requires a small foundation, otherwise it will collapse if pushed. There are also cement ratios, brick laying methods, etc.

"It's edible. Boss, take it in and put it in a bucket to grow it. Then I'll try to make something delicious."

Seeing his skilled appearance, I couldn't help but be curious. "How come you have so many?"

Jiang Zhe took a shovel and scooped some cement to smear on both sides of the brick in his hand. Then he stacked the bricks on top and hit the bricks firmly with the shovel.

Finally, hang the cement squeezed out from both sides back and reuse it.

The bricks stacked up are staggered with those on the layer below, so you have to start sorting them from the beginning to avoid mistakes.

It is also for the purpose of making it more solid, otherwise it will not only collapse easily, but also crack.

"Men still need to know these things, otherwise what's the point of having men at home?"

"I can do a lot of things. You can slowly discover that I am still very useful."

After laying a brick, he looked at Su Mian. His expression remained the same, but there was a hint of pride in his eyes.

Then he looked at the two people moving bricks, and his tone was much colder than before.

"You two should watch and learn well now, because it will be useful in the future. At least you can still do it now."

"It doesn't require that you do it well, but you have to at least be able to do it. We men are responsible for repairing things at home."

Jiang Ye already knew a lot of things and could understand what his father said.

Su Mian nodded in agreement. She herself couldn't do such a thing, but as Jiang Zhe said, it was something boys needed to learn.

They are both boys and there are many things they cannot teach themselves, or they simply don’t know how to do it and don’t understand it.

Just like now.

They can only learn on their own from what others say and do, and they are all very smart.

I will teach them everything I know, but it is limited to what I know, mostly related to study and household matters.

If it is a girl who teaches herself, there is definitely no problem, but for boys, I can only tell them to be responsible.

But now it’s good, we have Jiang Zhe!
These practical things in life...I can't do it myself, but Jiang Zhe can.

Therefore, it would be best to leave this kind of educational matter to Jiang Zhe.
