reborn in childhood

Chapter 22

Chen Fang is a good housekeeper who is diligent and thrifty, but when it comes to her heart, she can write Chen Zi backwards, and she will never be stingy with money.

In the past, when money was tight, she could spend all the money she had saved for a long time without frowning, just to add a nice new dress to Mu Mian, let alone now. With the 1000 yuan borrowed from Chen Lina in hand, the lives of Mu Mian and Doudou took a qualitative leap.

Eat meat every day!

Hehe, that's impossible, it's just an unrealistic fantasy of Doudou's classmate, but Chen Fang has a clever mind and knows how to live, knowing that the child is greedy, and when cutting fat meat and refining oil, he deliberately puts some lean meat in and cooks every day When I was eating, I would carefully use a spatula to scoop out two pieces of meat from the oil tank, which is also considered as a fun for the children. For Doudou, it is not so simple to enjoy the mouth, it is simply a fairy-like life Not to mention lean meat, even fat meat that has been refined tastes delicious, making his mouth water three thousand feet.

Therefore, under the offensive of delicious food, Doudou easily rebelled and completely lost his home.

Originally, Zhang Guihua and Mu Dongliang wanted to be lazy, let their son go home for dinner at noon, and live in Mu Mian's at night, but now, Zhang Guihua was bored and leaned against the bedside, counting the days on a whim, her son hadn't been there for four days. At home, although she hates children, but the child is really gone, she is still a little uncomfortable, she must be panicking.

"Hey, Mu Dongliang!"

Zhang Guihua kicked the father of the child lying on the bed pretending to be dead, is he so tired?During the year when the elder brother worked outside, I heard that the work was more tiring than this. If the elder brother survived, Mu Dongliang would find excuses to be lazy, so the two children must not follow him.

"What are you doing?" Someone who was lazy lay on the bed, talking with his eyes closed.

"Doudou hasn't come back for several days, and I don't know what he's busy with?"

"Whatever he is busy with, elder brother is like a father, elder sister-in-law is like a mother, don't you feel relieved to put it in the elder brother's place? Anyway, I am very satisfied, hehe, you don't know, Wu Xiao who works with me, he doesn't know much I envy me, his family Wu Shuaishuai also went to school, sitting behind Doudou, the child is tossing around all day long, he is very upset, and he still can't find someone to take care of the child for him."

Mu Dongliang laughed gloatingly, thinking beautifully, yes!At that time, the two brothers and Wu Jun and Wu Xiao went to school together, because he listened to his elder brother in everything, and was often laughed at by Wu Xiao, saying that he was a follower, oppressed by an elder brother, and he was not free at all. He's just a fool, even more stupid than Mu Doudou, who was instigated by the unscrupulous Wu Xiaoyi, and actually pulled out his teeth, stole his father's money, and even tried to frame him, trying to challenge his elder brother's authority. For this reason, he I paid a heavy price and have been honest until now.

Thinking about it carefully, what Wu Xiao said back then was all nonsense, hey, now he knows what happiness is, right?Father and mother are raised by the elder brother, and the elder brother helps to take care of the children. If there is anything for him, the elder brother will help. I don't bother to care about him anymore. Except for the tiring work, Mu Dongliang's life is all comfortable.

Zhang Guihua is similar to his idea. She used to be the boss of the family, helping the old and the young. She had to support everything, but after she got married, it was different. There was a big brother and a sister-in-law on top. She just had to take care of their family of three. That's right, life is extremely easy and comfortable.Ever since Zhang Guihua knew that Chen Fang would not adopt her child, she was completely relieved, let alone a child raised by her elder brother, even if the one in her belly was also raised there, Zhang Guihua was 120 rest assured.

Zhang Guihua pulled the light rope, put down her pillow and lay flat on her body, muttering: "Of course I don't worry, just as the invincible filial son of the eldest brother, and the soft-hearted and kind-hearted nature of the sister-in-law, I don't worry about the children not being filial to us at all, maybe We can teach the second big brother, so let’s wait and enjoy the blessings! I’m just angry with Doudou, raising this little boy so much, when he came back to pick up things last time, he actually said that the food I cooked was not good , said that he didn’t come back to suffer and suffer recently, what kind of nonsense! There is a foreign friend who can say that he only eats [-]% of the meal, and the meal will be more delicious next time. It must be that I love Doudou too much. Let him eat He complains like this because there are too many, hey, tell me, is my cooking really bad?"

Mu Dongliang was interrogated by Zhang Guihua poking his arm. He turned over innocently and said, aren't you embarrassing me?If it is delicious, can the child not come back?

He was poked again, and this time the force was stronger. Well, he didn't care about it. The big pregnant woman was the biggest. Mu Dongliang changed the subject and said, "Doudou is a person who doesn't know what is good or bad. Why are you serious with him? But, I When I met Doudou, I heard him say that tomorrow my sister-in-law will cut meat and refine oil, and will steam a lot of buns in the evening, which is the stuffing that Doudou brought back last time. I’m too tired from work, I’m going to eat, you don’t have to be mine It's time for dinner."

"An idiot will cook your meal, and I'll eat it too. I've had a hard pregnancy, so I need to make up for it."

Zhang Guihua didn't have morning sickness in the early stages of her pregnancy, but she was very greedy. When she recalled the buns steamed by her sister-in-law, she immediately had the urge to drool, just like when she was a child standing in front of the pot and watching her mother stew pork for the New Year. She didn't bother with Doudou anymore, and comforted herself, alas, it's not that we are not good, but that my sister-in-law is too good, and her cooking skills are simply outstanding!
The next day, Mu Dongliang brought his wife over to eat as soon as he got off work. Chen Fang made big buns with two kinds of fillings. Zhang Guihua sat in front of the pot and lit the fire. She felt very hungry before the buns came out of the pot. While grunting, Mu Dongliang, who was helping the eldest brother with work, also came looking for the scent. Chen Fang looked at the couple's children-like behavior, and she was in a good mood. Rice, isn't it just to make the family happy.

Counting that the time is almost up, Chen Fang kept wet her hands with cold water, and picked up the buns one by one into the bun cage. The boiled water under the grate was not good to drink. Normally, their family would just leave, but now Zhang Guihua is pregnant with a child. , I can't wrong her, Chen Fang scooped out the steamed bun water in the big pot, put the water in the tank again, and asked, "Osmanthus fragrans, what kind of porridge do you want?"

Zhang Guihua didn't need Chen Fang's instructions, and consciously lit a match. After lighting the fire, she added some twigs and corn cobs into it, raised her face that was somewhat reddened by the fire, and looked at Chen Fang with a smile.

"Sister-in-law still cooks porridge, how troublesome it is, hehe, Mu Dongliang just wants to drink it, so let's be confused with sweet potatoes. Our family Mu Dongliang said that elder brother is like father and elder sister-in-law is like mother. I have a lot of things to tell my sister-in-law. Learning, it’s like batter, no matter how I make it, there will be gnocchi.”

Zhang Guihua didn't want to expose her greedy nature, so she just said casually, she really wanted to learn, and before Chen Fang could say a few words about her own experience, she climbed up the pole and asked, "Sister-in-law wants to cook later." Well, what shall we cook?"

When Zhang Guihua talked about eating, her eyes lit up with excitement, and Mu Dongliang, who was gnawing buns, also had the same expression. Chen Fang finally understood why Doudou devoured her meals every day. She learned her feelings from her parents. She smiled and said: " Your husband and wife are getting more and more like a husband and wife, and the future will definitely be the same, Osmanthus, don't worry, there are a lot of dishes at home, and you are indispensable."

After chopping the sweet potatoes into pieces and putting them in the pot, Chen Fang took two steamed buns into the room, handed them to Mu Mian and Doudou who were lying on the table doing their homework, and asked, "Have you finished your homework? We will have dinner later." .”

"Mom, I've finished writing a long time ago," Mu Mian closed the fifth grade textbook in his hand, and said, "Let me help you pick vegetables in the vegetable garden."

"Auntie, I've finished writing too. I'm helping out with Mianya. It's not like Dad. He slipped away after working in the main room for a while. Now he must be stealing food in the kitchen."

Mu Dong, who was rushing to work, heard the voice next door, and snorted dissatisfied, how can a child say that about an elder, what is stealing!

Doudou shook his shoulders. In front of Mu Dongcai, he was always a little sheep. The little sheep stuck out his tongue at Mu Mian, and quickly slipped out to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden. Chen Fang was afraid that he would not help him. , also followed out, and before leaving, he gave Mu Dong a glance, what kind of elder, he knows the evil boy all day long.

Mu Dong just stared at Mu Mian who came out, and complained by the way: "Your mother is really terrible now, and she is getting more and more fierce."

It's good to be fierce, she still thinks her mother is not fierce enough, Mu Mian narrowed her eyes with a smile, walked up to Mu Dongcai, and put the bun in her hand to his mouth.

"Dad must be jealous. Everyone started to eat, but you are still working alone. Who made me the most intimate little padded jacket? I will feed you."

After a short meeting, Chen Fang asked everyone to wash their hands and prepare to eat. The east room was the bedroom of Chen Fang and his wife, and the west room was the bedroom of Mu Mian and Doudou. It can be eaten in the yard. Fortunately, Mu Dong pulled a wire to connect the light bulb in the yard earlier, so that the light would not be in the dark.

Mu Dongliang moved the table out, put beans and scrambled eggs with green peppers on the table, and then sat there lazily, holding the sweet potato cakes Chen Fang fried for Mu Mian Doudou, and Zhang Guihua The food is delicious, and as for the work of lighting the fire, it has long been handed over to Doudou. Isn't raising a son just to order her around?

Mu Mian helped Chen Fang, and Chen Fang quickly fried a plate of small green vegetables, a plate of pickled xuelihong, and a plate of lean meat and sweet potato stems. Dried radish, she chopped it up, mixed it with sesame oil, it looked like that, Chen Fang praised her daughter for her talent, and regardless of the vegetables being fried in the pot, she rushed into the main room with a spatula , reporting the good news to Mu Dongcai with a proud face.

When it was finally time to eat at the table, Zhang Guihua's chopsticks swept across, and she ate several buns in one go. She wished to treat her sister-in-law as a half-mother. Let's go, it was getting late at last, so she slapped Doudou jealously under Doudou's inexplicable eyes, and she and Mu Dongliang went back with a plate of pickles, of course, why didn't they carry the buns?Because the steamed stuffed bun has been almost eaten by these idiots, there is no need to carry it.

After walking a few steps, Mu Dongliang came back again, hiccupped and said, "Sister-in-law, when will you steam the buns again? That sweet potato cake is really delicious, I will come again next time."

"How old are you, and you still act like a slander, arguing with children for things, go away!"

Mu Dong just kicked him on the ass, and sent him away smoothly. Doudou, who was watching the excitement, was deeply impressed, and fell under his uncle's black cloth pants, and quickly summed up the way to survive. His father beat him, his uncle beat his father, his father rarely talked back to his grandfather, but his grandfather didn't dare to talk back to his uncle, so, in this world, the uncle is the most powerful, and he must be obedient, at least in front of his uncle.

Mu Dongliang, who didn't know that he was despised by his son, helped Zhang Guihua back home, no matter how jealous the couple was, Mu Mian and Doudou were indeed well-raised. Chen Fang cooked in a different way, and the family even fed them. Five or six old hens have saved a lot of eggs these days. After that incident, Mu Dong never took the eggs to the old lady again. Naturally, they all flowed into the stomachs of the four of them. It was only two months In time, Doudou grew a little taller, and Mu Mian became much fatter. It looked softer and softer, and felt like fine silk. I wish I could touch it to feel comfortable. Mu Dongcai's one The heart of loving a daughter is full, and I feel that such a precious and well-behaved girl must be carefully cared for all the time. If Mu Dong is in a good mood that day, or if Mu Mian behaves well, Mr. Mu is slowly developing in the direction of a filial daughter. Dad, in spite of his daughter's protest, would pierce her pink face with a beard, and then throw her high.

Chen Fang's traditional Chinese medicine has been discontinued under the doctor's advice. The old doctor is very responsible and did not ask the patient to take more medicine in order to earn more money. He suggested stopping the medicine. The rest is to take care of yourself at home.

The situation is indeed like this, Chen Fang's disease has been removed, she is in a good mood every day, and the food at home is also improved. Like Mu Mian, she gradually developed in the direction of white and fat, and one night she fell asleep. At that time, Mu Dong carried her in his arms, touched her fleshy waist with his big rough hands, and said with satisfaction: "Finally, there is some flesh to the touch. It's almost ninety catties now?"

Mu Mian, who was afraid of waking Doudou up to go to the bathroom, overheard this, covered her mouth and smiled, thinking cheerfully, the little brother she had been looking forward to for a long time should be coming soon, right?
