The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm
Chapter 188 Cooking
It looks like eldest brother will be back soon, so it's time to prepare dinner. The food is still in eldest brother's room.
I don't dare to touch that hot potato now. Although my mother wants it very much, I can't put that thing in front of her on my own initiative.
Standing at the gate of the yard, looking around, I saw a familiar figure in the distance.
"Big brother~" The second brother waved his hand and took a few steps forward.
Why is things a little unusual today? If it were usual, the second brother would definitely not come out to greet people. It would be much more comfortable to lie on the kang for a while.
Normally, smoke would have been coming out of the chimney a long time ago. Is no one at home working today?
The eldest brother was a little surprised. The food was in the house, and his wife should have taken the initiative to use it to cook. It was not right to let the whole family starve. It was not like the previous few days when there was nothing to eat.
The second brother saw the confusion in his eldest brother's eyes, rubbed his hungry belly, and stepped forward to say, "How dare the eldest sister-in-law make the decision? She just wanted to ask mother how much food to use for dinner, but mother coaxed her out in a bad mood, and said something like, 'Now your husband is the boss of the family, go ask him, don't ask me.'"
"Everyone at home is starving, so they sent me out to ask for help."
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at his eldest brother's expression, and sure enough, he frowned, and suddenly felt something was wrong. The second brother's purpose of watching the show was achieved. He wished he could grow wings and fly home, lie on the kang, and wait for the meal to be ready before eating. He could also have something new to kill time. There was nothing more comfortable than this.
He didn't show any gloating, but a look of heartache, "Brother, there is one more thing."
"You said."
"Doctor Zhao's consultation fee is one and a half taels of silver. This money..."
The eldest brother pounded his right hand on his left hand. Yes, he still owed the doctor money, and he had to pay it back no matter what. No one in the surrounding area dared to offend Doctor Zhao, it was really a worrying thing.
The second brother's steps became more brisk. He said everything he needed to say. Seeing that his eldest brother was upset, a barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. After all, it was his eldest brother who caused the trouble, so he just had to do his duty to remind him.
When I entered the house, I heard the old lady scolding loudly on the kang, "I'm not saying anything bad about you, but the children are hungry, why don't you cook? Ah, what will happen if we, Fugui, starve to death?"
"Mom, how much to eat tonight is still up to you to decide, you see..."
The old lady's legs and feet are not convenient now, otherwise she would definitely jump up and slap the eldest son's wife a few times to vent her anger, "I'm looking, what are you looking at? You are the housekeeper now, how can I look at you?"
The eldest son’s wife didn’t dare to say anything anymore. Everything she said now would be wrong. Why didn’t the eldest son come back yet? She could not bear it any longer.
The eldest brother felt uncomfortable when he heard his mother's reprimand. This matter had nothing to do with his wife, but he still had to be scolded. It was her who suggested getting the food back. His mother was really... Alas~
However, my mother is old, and she was injured and cannot move, so she is naturally angry and will definitely find someone to vent her anger. My wife will definitely be the first to bear the brunt of it, so I should comfort her later.
When I entered the house, I saw my daughter-in-law standing there with red eyes. There was food on the kang. My mother was lying on the kang angrily and waved her hand to let someone go out first.
"Mother~"
"You still recognize me as your mother~"
"You are always my mother. I was wrong just now. You still have to take care of the food. We, the younger generation, have no right to take care of it."
After hearing these words, the old lady felt a little better, but how could such a thing be forgiven? She still needed to lie on the kang to recuperate for three months and could not go anywhere. She felt aggrieved, and she absolutely could not bear this grievance alone.
"Why can't I do anything about it? I think you are very capable. I don't know who pushed me down just now, just for a bag of food. Ouch~ It hurts so much."
The old lady held her legs weakly, her facial features tightened and her expression was in pain. The eldest son couldn't bear to watch, nor could he bear to hear his mother's painful groans.
"It's my fault, mother. From now on, I will never snatch food from you again. I will let you keep it. I will definitely be filial to you."
No matter what, we have to get through this hurdle first. It will be right to say nice things without caring about your life.
"Look, this bag of food is the food for our whole family. Please arrange how much we should eat in the evening."
The boss patted the grain bag, and the solid feeling made him feel at ease.
The old lady wanted to continue to take advantage of Qiao and teach these bastards a lesson, but Fugui came in, pouted, rubbed his belly, and said, "Grandma, I'm hungry."
"Oh my dear grandson is hungry. It's all your father's fault. I will arrange for someone to cook right away."
He scooped out some food, and seeing how hungry Fugui was, he added a little more, "Fugui's mother, cook."
"Hey~" The eldest son's wife hurried into the house to take away the food for tonight and went into the kitchen. At the critical moment, wealth and honor are still useful, after all, he is the old lady's beloved grandson.
"Mom, please forgive me. This family can't do without you."
The old lady snorted coldly and glanced at the eldest brother, "You kid still know that this family can't do without me."
"That's right. You are the backbone of the family. From now on, we have to ask you for your approval for everything, big or small. Get well soon. Fugui was very sad to hear that you were injured and unable to get up."
Receiving his father's look, he quickly stepped forward and held the old lady's hand, "Grandma, you have to get better soon."
"Hey~"
When the old lady heard her precious grandson's words, she suddenly became much more energetic and felt a little hungry. "Ask your wife to cook quickly. We are all hungry. Don't hang around in front of me. I feel dizzy when I see you. Go out."
The eldest brother felt relieved when he saw that his mother finally gave in and was willing to be the manager again.
As long as mother is willing, you don't have to worry too much about her mental and physical health. She will get better soon because of this matter.
The eldest son's wife cooked dinner skillfully, and with the help of Jinshui and Xiuli, dinner was soon served on the table.
It had been a long time since we had such thick porridge. Everyone stared at the bowls in front of them. Although the old lady was unable to move and was in another room, no one dared to pick up their chopsticks without her order.
The eldest brother brought his mother's dinner to her room, holding a spoon in one hand and a bowl in the other, "I'll feed you."
The old lady gave the eldest son a look of disdain and said, "My legs can't move, but I can't eat with my hands."
As he said this, he took the bowl from the eldest brother's hand. He was hungry as well, so he blew on it and shoveled the porridge into his mouth a few times. After a few mouthfuls of it, he felt much better.
The eldest brother saw that his mother had a good appetite and knew that she would get better quickly if she could eat, so he finally put his mind at ease.
People in the next room heard the old lady slurping her porridge and also picked up their bowls to eat.
I haven't eaten so full in a long time. Although I can't say I was bloated, it's much better than before when I was so hungry that my stomach was sticking to my back. At least I can sleep tonight.
