Chapter 122 The Big Wooden Basin at Grandma's House

It was around ten o'clock in the evening when the couple arrived at their grandmother's house.

At this time of day, grandma would have gone to bed long ago, but tonight, while waiting for her granddaughter and her grandson-in-law, the old lady had already taken several naps on the sofa.

Every time she heard the sound of wind blowing through the courtyard gate, she would put on her cotton coat and go out to take a look. After being disappointed many times, she finally waited for the couple.

"Grandma, I miss you so much." As their car drove into the yard, Xiaoyu couldn't wait to open the door and rushed over to hug her grandmother.

"My dear, you are wearing such thin clothes, hurry into the house and warm yourself up." The old man touched his granddaughter's thin coat and said with concern.

"Hello, grandma." Ke Yongxin said politely.

"Oh my, grandma looks like a dwarf standing in front of you."

With the help of the light in the main room and the sparse moonlight, the old man looked at the tall man standing behind his granddaughter, who was carrying large and small bags.

"You've been driving for almost ten hours. You must be tired and hungry. Come in and have a meal. Grandma has prepared a lot of delicious food for you." The old woman closed the gate, took Xiaoyu's hand, and walked towards the main room.

Ke Yongxin walked behind them, looking at the old man's straight back, quick steps, strong body, and height of about 1.65 meters.

He finally found the answer: his father-in-law is less than 1.7 meters tall, so why is his wife so tall? It turns out that the genetic genes are here.

The courtyard of my grandmother's house is not big. As you enter the door, there are several citrus trees as thick as rolling pins on the right hand side, with heavy, golden ugly oranges hanging on the trees.

There was a cherry tree as thick as a bowl on the left side, and their car was parked under the cherry tree.

"Xiao Ke, come in quickly, it's cold outside." The grandma called out when she saw Ke Yongxin still standing in the yard.

"Grandma, you've been waiting for us for so long, must you be sleepy?" Xiaoyu asked, pulling her grandmother's arm.

"Grandma is not sleepy. She doesn't have to work. She can sleep whenever she wants. There is a hand warmer under the small blanket on the sofa. You and your sister bought it for me last winter."

The old man poured them some hot water as he spoke.

"At night I lie in bed with one in my arms and one at my feet, and sleep till dawn. It's warm, you can hold them first to warm your hands."

Then he handed them the steaming cup of water.

"It's not as warm here as in Shenzhen. Please sit down for a while. I'll go get you some hot chicken soup. Drink some hot soup and you'll warm up quickly."

Grandma, let me do it while you chat with Xiaoyu." Ke Yongxin drank two sips of hot water, stood up and said to his grandmother.

"You are not familiar with my territory, so I'll go first. You guys sit down." The old man invited his grandson-in-law to sit down.

"Grandma, I'll go to the kitchen with you to heat up the food." Xiaoyu put down the water cup, threw the hand warmer on Ke Yongxin's legs, stood up, took her grandmother's hand, and walked into the kitchen together.

Ten minutes later, the sausages, bacon, pickled fish, cold chicken, stir-fried red rapeseed sprouts, and stewed chicken soup made by grandma were served on the table.

"Wow, the food grandma cooked smells so good." Ke Shao, who insisted not to eat after 7 o'clock in the evening, picked up a piece of sausage and put it in his mouth, exclaiming in admiration.

"The sausages and bacon are all made by grandma. You should eat more." Xiaoyu gave the man a wicked smile.

"The only thing I bought at the market this morning was the fish. The rest was produced by me."

"The red rapeseed sprouts are grown in my fields, and the chickens are raised by myself. To use the words of you city people, they are all natural and pollution-free," said grandma with a smile.

"This chicken soup is delicious, especially the round radish in it. It's really tasty. Grandma, are there still some in the field? It's juicy, sweet, crispy and delicious." Xiaoyu introduced to Ke Yongxin.

"Yes, I'll take you to the field to pick radishes tomorrow." Grandma served her grandson-in-law a bowl of chicken soup.

Ke Yongxin did not refuse. He took the chicken soup, drank two sips, and started to flatter his grandmother again.

But what I said is true, my grandmother’s cooking skills are really good, maybe it has something to do with the pure natural ingredients.

"Grandma, I've already eaten a lot in the car. Tonight I'll just have a bowl of chicken soup and eat some radishes. I'll enjoy these delicious foods tomorrow." Xiaoyu said while drinking the soup.

"Then you should eat more, you are so thin." The grandmother said, and put another piece of cold chicken into her grandson-in-law's bowl. "My cold chicken, Xiaoyu and her sisters are fighting for it."

"Grandma, why don't you go to bed first? It's already past eleven o'clock. We can take care of ourselves." Ke Yongxin said to his grandmother as he looked at the mountain of meat in the bowl.

"That's right, grandma, you go to sleep first. We will clean up after we finish eating." Xiaoyu saw Ke Yongxin's face that looked like he was so full that he wanted to die, so she quickly said to her grandmother.

"That's fine, Xiaoyu, you take good care of my grandson-in-law. I'll leave the hand warmers for you to use. It will be cool in your bed at night." The old man said as he took off his apron.

"Grandma, no need. We young people have hot tempers. You should use the hand warmer to warm the bed." Xiaoyu said.

"Yes, grandma, you can use the hand warmer. Look, you have a hand warmer as big as me, so you don't have to be afraid." Ke Yongxin patted his chest and said with a smile.

"Okay, then you guys go and have a rest after dinner. Leave the dishes there, and I'll get up and clean them up tomorrow morning." After saying that, the old man walked into his bedroom.

After dinner, Ke Yongxin put on an apron and cleaned the kitchen.

Xiaoyu didn't want him to do it, so he said angrily: "Why didn't you say you would help me eat some meat? Now, don't compete with me for work, you have no good intentions!"

After he said that, Xiaoyu had no choice but to help him boil water on the gas stove to wash the dishes. In this temperature of less than ten degrees, it was a bit chilly to wash dishes with tap water.

"If you don't believe me, just use cold water to wash dishes, vegetables, and clothes every day. By the fifth day of the New Year, you will have frostbite on your hands." Xiaoyu muttered to herself when she saw the man started washing dishes without waiting for her to heat the water.

"It's probably not okay to take a bath in a basin in this weather. Let's go buy a water heater for grandma tomorrow and install a water heater in the kitchen as well." Ke Yongxin said.

"We have told grandma many times, but she said that bathing in a basin is good, it saves gas and water, and it is safer."

"Last year we bought her a water heater online and had it delivered to her home, but she refused to let us install it, saying that it wouldn't work even if we installed it," Xiaoyu said helplessly.

"We will go buy it tomorrow, watch the master install it, and teach her step by step. I don't believe she will be able to take it down after we leave." Ke Yongxin said.

After cleaning up the kitchen, the couple faced a headache: taking a bath.

Like people in the north, people in Rongshi don’t have the habit of taking a bath every day in winter, especially those living in rural areas. They think soaking their feet is more comfortable than taking a bath.

But people in Shenzhen are different. No matter it is winter or summer, they must take a bath every day, otherwise they will feel uncomfortable all over.

"Wife, I see your grandmother's wooden tub is quite big. Let's move it into the bedroom, boil a large tub of water, and take a bath in it. It should be quite nice."

"I estimated that there shouldn't be enough space for two people to sit inside. It just so happens that I ate too much tonight. You wash first and I'll rub your back."

As he spoke, he had already cleaned the large wooden tub and moved it into the bedroom. He used two stoves to boil water, and soon the tub was filled with steam and smoke.

Xiaoyu's eyes widened and her face flushed, not knowing how to respond.
