Crossing the Book of Eighty Years: The Sweet Daughter-in-law of a Mountain Man

Xia Ning walked around the city. There were too many things to do and a lot of things to buy. It was already late when she came back.

Xia Xue and Xia Kai were not waiting for her at the door as usual today.

It wasn't until Xia Ning walked in that Xia Xue and Xia Kai came forward and shouted: "Sister."

Xia Ning nodded, knowing that the two of them were very good today and did not come to the door.

Xia Kai ran out and said, "Sister, we were very good today and didn't stay outside."

Xia Ning nodded and said, "Yeah, okay."

Most of the people working in the factory have left, but Aunt Cai has not left yet.

I heard that Miao Ying and her daughter were very serious about their work. Sometimes they worked until eleven or two o'clock at night, and they were able to get so much money.

Although it was hard to make money, the thought of getting a salary made her feel hot and wished she could do more work.

Xia Ning didn't care how late others worked, she put her things down.

Xia Xue and Xia Kai helped clean up. Seeing that their sister had bought a lot of accessories, Xia Xue asked: "Sister, are you making new styles?"

Now that she sees her sister buying new materials, she will feel that her sister is making new styles again.

Xia Ning nodded and said, "Yes."

Xia Kai was very obedient. He ran to the table, moved a stool to cushion his height, poured a bowl of water, and took it over unsteadily.

"Sister, you drink water."

Xia Ning's heart was filled with a swollen, warm and full feeling.

She took the bowl.

He praised Xia Kai: "Xiao Kai is so good."

Zhou Junmin was in the kitchen, leaning his head and saying, "I'm back."

This tone made Xia Ning look towards the kitchen window naturally, just like a husband busy in the kitchen asking his wife who came in with a familiar and natural tone.

What is she thinking?

Xia Ning quickly shook off the emotions that came out of her head, drank the water, walked into the kitchen, and said, "I'll do it."

"No, I'm going to cook today. You can try to see if my skills have improved."

After eating Xia Ning's cooking every day, Zhou Junmin had an idea of ​​how to combine Xia Ning's ingredients.

Xia Ning raised her eyebrows slightly. She would not compete with others for work.

"Okay, let's let our big boss cook the meal today."

Xia Kai corrected her: "What big boss? That's the eldest brother-in-law, right? Second sister?"

Xia Ning reached out and poked Xia Kai's nose.

Xia Kai held his nose and complained aggrievedly: "Did I say something wrong?"

Xia Xue supported Xia Kai: "Xiao Kai is right, we are not wrong."

You haven't even written your horoscope yet. If you say this kind of thing in front of Zhou Junmin every day, what will people think?

Zhou Junmin was familiar with this sentence now. When he heard this sentence, he just smiled and said nothing else.

Zhou Junmin's meal was quite good and looked good. He seemed to have a talent for learning.

Xia Ning took a bite and found that there was a bit too much salt, but she still had to praise it.

Xia Kaike was a straight person. After taking a bite, he felt that it was not as delicious as the elder sister's cooking. He said directly: "Brother Junmin, did you swallow too much salt? It's so salty!"

The number of times Zhou Junmin has cooked can be counted on his fingers. He used to eat in the school cafeteria. When he returned home with his eldest brother and second brother, he would mostly help light the fire.

Later, he fell ill for no apparent reason, and he never cooked. Ever since he had Xia Ning, it was Xia Ning who cooked. He rarely held a spoon, so the amount of salt sometimes really didn't matter.

Xia Kai's words made him stretch out his chopsticks and take a bite of green vegetables. After eating, his brows furrowed. He looked at Xia Ning. Did Xia Ning praise him for doing a good job?

"That's it, you still praise me?"

"Apprentices who can make such a good appearance are worthy of praise."

Xia Ning said it seriously.

She looks like a little girl, but she talks like a mature person.

Her indifferent expression made Zhou Junmin frown inexplicably.

But he had to admit that what Xia Ning said made sense.

He is just an apprentice. How can an apprentice meet the same standards as a master?

He said: "Then you try other dishes, and I will improve it next time."

Xia Xue immediately caught the meaning of Zhou Junmin's words. She asked, "Brother Junmin, when will you cook again?"

Zhou Junmin thinks that as Xia Ning is so busy now, he may be even busier in the future. Although he is studying quite hard now, cooking one or two meals occasionally is not a big problem for him.

But you can't talk too much, otherwise it will affect the two children.

Zhou Junmin said: "Look, I'll do it for you if I get the chance."

Xia Kai said: "Do you still need a chance to cook? Isn't cooking just about doing whatever you want?"

Great question!

Zhou Junmin was actually a little speechless.

That's because he is too lazy!

You have to choose time to cook.

Xia Ning said: "From now on, if my sister goes out and comes back too late to catch up, Junmin brother can play."

Xia Xue: "I can also help, I can cook."

Washing rice, running water, lighting fires, Xia Xue can do all these things.

Not to be outdone, Xia Kai said: "Yes, yes, I can help with these."

Xia Ning nodded and said, "Well, you are all grown up and can help."

Zhou Junmin: "When they go to school, you will be busy alone."

Xia Xue thought carefully and said, "Then I won't go to school. I'll stay at home to help my sister."

Xia Ning didn't want them to have wrong ideas. She said seriously: "Xiaoxue, you shouldn't think like this. You should think about learning better and getting more knowledge. When you become stronger, you can help your sister do more in the future. My sister doesn’t need you to help me work at home all day long like a machine. Do you understand? If my sister needs you to help me settle accounts now, can you do it? If you don’t go to school, you will never be able to do it. .”

After listening to this, Xia Xue finally understood that if she didn't study and strengthen herself, she wouldn't be able to help her sister do more things.

Xia Xue thought about it, nodded seriously and said, "Sister, I understand."

Although Xia Kai didn't understand it very well, he probably knew that if he didn't make himself stronger, he wouldn't be able to do more things for his eldest sister.

I can't make my sister's factory better.

"Sister, I will also study hard in the future. I will definitely make myself better and better, so that I can help you do different jobs."

Xia Ning nodded. Now that they are still young, they should cultivate the concept of learning from an early age instead of focusing on immediate interests. Thinking about working to make money is too superficial.

Zhou Junmin looked at Xia Ning with a faint look. She was obviously not many years old, and she had a lot of principles. Wasn't she just thinking about starting a factory instead of studying?

However, in front of Xia Xue and Xia Kai, let her save some face and not expose her.
