The retired rough man dotes on his mother

Chapter 24 Grandma, Mom’s cooking is delicious

After getting up in the morning, Xiao Baoer made chicken noodle soup with the leftover chicken soup from yesterday and put a poached egg in each bowl. Sanbao has developed a habit of drinking a bottle of milk in the morning. In addition to milk, Xiao Baoer also gave him two corn dumplings today.

After finishing her meal, Xiao Baoer suddenly remembered the original owner’s parents’ home. The original owner had not been back to her parents’ home for a long time since she had a conflict with her parents.

Xiao Baoer married into the Xingfu Brigade. Her parents' home was in the neighboring Democratic Brigade and belonged to the same commune.

"Mom will take you to grandma's house, okay?"

"Okay, let's go to grandma's house."

Xiao Baoer took a backpack and put some cloth in it, which should be enough for Xiao's father and mother to wear a set of clothes. Then he put 5 catties of flour, 5 catties of rice, and 2 catties of pork belly in the backpack, and took out a wild rabbit from the space.

Remembering that the original owner had two nephews and two nieces from her mother's family, she took out the egg cake and White Rabbit milk candy she had bought from the cupboard and put them in the backpack.

There was no bicycle at home, and Xiao Baoer couldn't walk with three children, so she found a ox cart in the village and gave 5 cents to the driver, Uncle Li. Uncle Li dropped Xiao Baoer off at her mother's door and then went back.

"Aunt, you're back." The speaker was Xiaoying, the daughter of the original owner's eldest brother. She was 10 years old and the oldest child in the family.

Xiao's mother did not let Xiaoying cut grass for pigs to earn work points like other children in the village. Xiaoying mainly stayed at home to take care of her three younger siblings.

"Aunt, please sit down first. I'll go find grandpa and grandma." After saying this, Xiaoying ran to the fields to find the adults at home.

Mother Xiao looked at Xiaoying from a distance as she ran over. "Xiaoying, what's wrong? Why are you running here?"

Xiaoying was still panting, "Grandma, aunt, aunt..."

Xiao's mother thought something had happened to Xiao Bao'er, "What happened to your aunt? Tell me quickly."

"My aunt is fine. She is home, along with her three younger brothers."

When Xiao's mother heard that her daughter had returned, she quickly called Xiao's father and asked for leave and ran home. No matter how naive the daughter was, her parents were always thinking about her.

Xiao Baoer was playing with her three nephews and nieces at home, and giving the children egg cakes and White Rabbit milk candies. When she saw her mother and father running back in a panic, she was stunned.

Mom and Dad look exactly like the mom and dad in the photo that her grandfather showed her in her previous life. Have mom and dad returned to her?

Xiao Baoer hurriedly hugged her mother and cried, "Dad, Mom," just like the original owner did.

"My girl, what's wrong? Are you wronged?"

Although Xiao's mother felt that her daughter was unlikely to be wronged, she still had to ask the reason.

Xiao Baoer calmed down and said, "It's okay, Mom, I just miss you and Dad."

"Silly girl, come back and see your parents if you miss them."

Father Xiao is a man of few words. He is a craftsman who specializes in making furniture for others. Because of his good craftsmanship, people from nearby villages often come to him to make furniture for them.

All the furniture Xiao Baoer has at home was made specially for her by Xiao's father.

"Dabao, Erbao, Sanbao, come here and let grandma see you." Xiao's mother called her three grandsons. The three children had really changed a lot. They were wearing clean clothes and shoes, and their faces and hands were also clean.

The main thing is that their complexion has changed. Before, the three children were pale and thin, but now they are not pale anymore. Their faces are smooth, white and tender. No one would doubt that they are children from the city.

"Grandma, Grandpa," the three children called sweetly.

"Oh, good, all three babies are good."

Xiao Baoer was talking to Xiao's father and mother while several children were playing in the yard.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm different now. I will raise the child well." Xiao Baoer was the first to express her attitude.

When Mr. and Mrs. Xiao saw the changes in their three children, they felt that their daughter might have changed. Now that they heard Xiao Baoer say it herself, they felt more relieved.

"My daughter has grown up and become sensible. You should not only be good to the child, but also be nice to your mother-in-law and father-in-law. You should stop harassing the old couple. They are good people."

Xiao's mother told her to be nice to her children and parents-in-law, and to be more filial to Shen Zhensheng.

"Mom, don't worry. My parents-in-law have been very good to me over the years. I will treat them well." Then Xiao Baoer told Xiao's father and mother that she wanted to send Shen Xiuxiu to high school.

"Your sister-in-law is a good girl. She takes care of your two children. If you can send her to school, please send her there." Shen's mother used to see Shen Xiuxiu often, and the little girl was always very polite every time they met.

After chatting with Xiao's father and mother for a long time, "Mom, let's cook. It will be time for my four brothers and sister-in-law to get off work soon."

"Mom will do it, you take a rest."

"Mom, take a break. I'll do it. You can taste my cooking skills."

"Daughter, can you cook? You were too lazy to do it before." Shen's mother asked doubtfully.

"Mom, I can do it. I have to raise a child in the future, and I can't do it without knowing how to cook." Xiao Baoer stood up and prepared to cook.

"Grandma, mom's cooking is so delicious. Look, I've gained weight." Erbao tried his best to prove that his mother could cook.

Mother Xiao pinched Erbao's little face and said, "Our Erbao has gained weight. OK, let's let your mother cook and let grandma taste your mother's cooking skills."

Xiao's mother asked Xiao's father to look after the child while she went to light the fire and help Xiao Baoer cook.

"Mom, I got some pork belly and a wild rabbit I found while collecting firewood. Let's make some braised pork. As for the rabbit, we won't make it spicy since we have kids. Let's make some braised rabbit. My brother and sister-in-law have a hard time at work."

"Kid, don't take anything next time you come. Zhensheng can make money, but you still have three children to raise."

Xiao Baoer didn't say anything and just followed Xiao's mother's lead and said she understood.

With Xiao's mother helping, cooking was relatively quick. In addition to the braised pork and rabbit, she also stir-fried pork with green peppers, mixed cucumbers, and made a pot of tomato egg drop soup.

My brother and sister-in-law came back from work just after the meal was ready.

"Little sister, you're back." The speaker was the original owner's eldest brother Xiao Zhongxing. The brothers were also very happy. Xiao Baoer was the only girl in the family, and the brothers had loved her since she was a child.

"Yes, mother and I have already prepared the meal. Brothers and sisters-in-law, please wash your hands and let's eat." Xiao Baoer said with a smile.

Several sisters-in-law were wondering if their sister-in-law would cause trouble when she came back.

As soon as I see the food on the table, I stop complaining. Nothing is more important than eating.

"Mom, why did you make so many delicious foods today? They are better than what we ate during the Chinese New Year." Fourth brother Xiao Zhongyun is a foodie. He has been drooling at the sight of so many delicious foods.

"You have to thank your little sister for all this. The meat and rabbit were brought by your little sister. She also brought egg cakes and candies for the children. The children are very happy."

The sisters-in-law knew that my younger sister had married well, but they had never brought so many things before. When they heard that my younger sister had brought so many things, they were very happy.

The four daughters-in-law of the Xiao family are all very good. They know how to handle big things, and they all have some minor flaws, but they all want to take care of their own families and their husbands. It's just because they are living in a tight situation.

We are busy with the autumn harvest now, and having some meat at home is the happiest thing.

Several people ate up a large pot of mixed grain rice and several large pots of vegetables, and they were really satisfied.
