Little wealth

"I know you're hungry, so just sit here honestly and wait until I get you something to eat." Josh didn't forget to take his son to wash his hands, and he carried his son to the dining table after washing his hands Sit down, and don't forget to shout to the man who is still working in the wooden house: "The meal is ready, come out to eat."

"Well, come."

The man working in the wooden house also put down the wood in his hands, went outside to wash his hands, and helped carry things.Zhao Amu, who was the last one to go out, took the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, and asked the son who came in to go out, "It's fine to go out and sit and eat, there is nothing to take."

The setting sun was hanging on the top of the hill in the west, and they sat down around the dining table to eat together.

Today's dinner is very rich, there is a large pot of pickled cabbage fish soup, braised tofu and steamed pork liver, the fried vegetables are shiny, and they are completely different from the boiled vegetables.Although there are not many dishes, the amount of each serving is large.

"Brother Chen, you're welcome, just treat this place as your own home." Zhao Amu divided the bowls and chopsticks for everyone, showed a very warm look to this future daughter-in-law, and asked: "Why don't you ask your father to come with you? You came to our place. Isn't your father eating alone at home?"

Chen Yan took the bowls and chopsticks with both hands, thanked him, and said, "My father went out early in the morning, and he probably won't be back until later."

"Is your father taking a job and going out?" Zhao Amu knew that Chen Butcher often went out to kill pigs, so she presumably took the job and went out to work outside, so she asked, "On weekdays it's you Are you alone at home a lot?"

"En." Faced with Zhao Amu's enthusiasm, Chen Yan was a little at a loss, and he didn't know how to place his hands.

"There are a lot of dishes today, you can eat as much as you want, don't be polite. And brother Chen, just treat this as your own home, don't be strangers to us, it's not easy to invite you to have a meal, don't be idle I went back with a stomach full." Josh was still busy taking care of his son, and wrapped his son around with the rice he just made today, so as not to keep falling on his clothes while eating.

Children are not used to the things around their necks and always want to pull them off with their hands.

"Don't pull it, I'll take it off for you after eating." Josh glanced over, and the child just didn't move, just looked at him pitifully.Put the small bowl of fish soup on hand, pick up a spoon to scoop up a spoonful of fish soup, bow your head and blow it, and feed it into the child's mouth, "Ah, open your mouth~"

Sure enough, when he tasted the first mouthful of fish soup, the child was really anxious to eat, and he couldn't care less about what was around his neck.

"Em, brother, you should eat too. That's right, Brother Chen, you should hurry up and eat too. You don't have to be polite to us." Today's food looks delicious, and Zhao Hu picked up his chopsticks as soon as he sat down. I went to pick up a piece of braised tofu. It was smooth and tender, without any bean taste. It was the best fried tofu he had ever eaten.

Seeing that Chen Geer, who came to their house for the first time, was embarrassed to open his chopsticks, Zhao Amu picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful of sauerkraut and fish into his bowl, and said with a smile: "Eat more, eat more , don’t go back hungry.”

"Yeah." Chen Yan smelled the aroma of the vegetables, and his stomach was growling. In the end, he couldn't resist the desire to eat, so he also took chopsticks and started eating.

After taking the first sip of the soup, the soup has the sour taste and fragrance of sauerkraut, and the umami taste of fish, but it doesn’t make people feel too fishy. He likes the taste of this fish soup after just one sip. It's so delicious.

"There is rice here, you can serve what you want." After cooking the meal for the child, Josh picked up his own bowl and chopsticks to eat his meal, picked up a spoon and scooped up half a bowl of sauerkraut fish soup, this sauerkraut Although the fish soup is not as delicious as the sauerkraut fish eaten by later generations, the taste is not bad.

"This tofu is a bit tender. If you can't pick it up, use this spoon to scoop it up. This bibimbap is delicious. You can try it."

"I'll try."

Zhao Hu took the soup spoon, put a spoonful of tofu and soup on his rice, stirred it with chopsticks, and took a few big mouthfuls to fill a small bowl, "It's so delicious!" Sure enough, he The dishes made by my brother did not disappoint him. The taste is really delicious!

Zhao Amu looked at his youngest son who was eating so much that he didn't even raise his head, and then at Brother Chen who was carefully eating beside him, he felt really resentful in his heart!This wooden son of his family only knows how to eat his own food, and doesn't know how to take care of other people's brothers!Hey~

"Em, you can eat too. There are quite a few dishes here today, enough for the few of us to eat." Josh saw his E'mu's eyes darting back and forth at the two people next to him, even his own food I didn't bother to eat, and reminded me aloud.

"Hey~" Zhao Amu responded, and gave up reminding this wooden son of his family. While eating his own meal, he would occasionally order food for Brother Chen sitting next to him, trying to make his future daughter-in-law Feel the warmth and hospitality of their family.

Carpenter Zhao didn't see what his mother was thinking. He held the bowl in one hand and the chopsticks in the other, and ate the rice and vegetables with great gulp.

Everyone ate in silence during this meal. The only thing in common was that everyone's chopsticks kept picking up the dishes on the table, and the dishes on the table were decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The first time Chen Yan ate cured pork liver was steamed like this. He thought it was very good, especially the sauce that was poured on it, and he didn't know how to adjust it.However, he still prefers to eat other dishes than the usual cured pork liver, especially this tofu dish, which is tender and delicious, and he likes this taste the most. Scoop a spoonful of tofu into the rice with the soup, He can eat a big bowl of rice in one sitting.

It wasn't until the three bowls of rice were eaten that Chen Yan realized that he had accidentally eaten three bowls of rice. The hand that reached out to grab the spoon sneaked back, and carefully looked at the tablemate eating with his eyes. Do you think he ate too much?

In fact, Chen Yan was overthinking. With the two brothers from the Zhao family in front, although his appetite was bigger than the average brother, he was not as big as Zhao He and Zhao Hu.

"I want to serve soup, serve it, there is still in the pot." Sitting next to him, Zhao Amu noticed Brother Chen's actions, took the bowl in his hand, and helped him fill a large bowl full of it. Soup and sauerkraut.

The fish in the bowl was almost eaten, and there were still some fish bones and sauerkraut in it. He even put half a fish head into the bowl for his future daughter-in-law, thinking happily: just eat more. Well, how good it is to eat and give birth, maybe I can give him a few big fat grandchildren in the future!

"Thank you...thank you Amu Zhao." Brother Chen took the bowl with a blushing face, ate another big bowl of pickled vegetable fish soup, and ate up all the fish heads in the bowl.

Zhao Hu, who was eating hard next to him, didn't even know what happened at the dinner table. He only had his eyes on his food, and he couldn't stop sighing in his heart: brother, the fried dishes are so delicious! ! !

***

The speed of the dishes on the table was decreasing as far as the naked eye could see. In the end, only half of the cured pork liver and some stir-fried vegetables were left, and the speed of everyone's serving food slowly slowed down.

Josh took out the full child and put it on the ground to play.

Today when he was cooking, he deliberately cooked a little too much. The big pot of rice was almost bottomed out, and he took another look at the three who not only ate fast but also ate a lot...the ones they invited today This guest's appetite is not too much.He thought to himself that it's a good thing he cooked a little more rice, otherwise he might not have enough food now.

It wasn't until everyone stopped their chopsticks at last that Josh asked with a smile, "Are you full? Let's clear the table when we're full."

"Hic—" Zhao Hu burped, put down his chopsticks reluctantly, and replied, "Eat, I'm full. Bro, let me help you clean up."

"No, no, I'll clean it up. I left some food just now. Brother Chen, when you go back, bring some food for your father." Seeing that it was getting late, he knew that Chen Yan still had to hurry Going home, Josh had already packed the food and put it in a basket just now, now he took it out from the kitchen and handed it to Chen Yan.

"No, there's no need." Chen Yan was a little embarrassed, he couldn't do it because he had to eat and take it.

"Hey, don't be embarrassed, I won't save you having to cook another meal when you go back."

Seeing that Chen Yan refused to take it, Qiao Xu handed the basket to Zhao Hu, and gave his brother-in-law a task, "Xiaohu, please help send Brother Chen back." He remembered that Chen Yan had to walk through a small forest when he went back. It's safer to go with you.

"Before it's dark, Xiaohu, send Brother Chen back and come back." Zhao Amu followed suit.

"Okay, I will definitely deliver Chen Ge'er to the door." Zhao Hu took the basket and glanced at Chen Ge'er, which seemed to be asking, why don't you leave?

Chen Yan glanced at Jo Xu and Zhao Amu, lowered his head, and followed Zhao Hu to go out.

Josh looked at the two people who had left, and thought to himself that I have already created the opportunity for you, and it is up to you whether it works or not.

"Hehe, I'll do it." Zhao Amu saw the intentions of the eldest daughter-in-law, and was full of gratitude to the eldest daughter-in-law. If the marriage between the younger son and Chen's brother can be successful, the eldest daughter-in-law must be a great matchmaker. !

So seeing his daughter-in-law clearing the table at this moment, he hurried over to help, as if he couldn't do it all with all his strength.

"Let me come, Eminem, you go and rest for a while." Zhao He also rushed to pack his things.

"Hey, no, no, you've been busy all day, go and rest, we'll just come here." Zhao Amu was happy in her heart, and neatly cleaned up the dishes, took them to the kitchen and snatched the dishwashing work.

Josh poured the leftover rice and vegetables into a basin and took them outside to feed the dog. When he met a man standing at the door, he asked, "Have you finished your work?"

Zhao He shook his head and said, "A little bit more."

"Then go and get busy with your business. It's enough to have me and Eminem here." Josh felt that it didn't take so many people to wash a few dishes, and they would deliver the goods tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so they had to hurry up and do the work. come out.

Zhao He also understood this truth, so he didn't procrastinate, turned around and went to the wooden house to continue his work.

Seeing that the man was busy, Josh also turned around and went into the kitchen to pack the things inside.

Not long after, the uncle who sent Chen Yan back also came back with an empty basket in his hand, and there were two empty bowls in the basket. He asked, "Did you send him back?"

"Send it back, I sent him to the door." Zhao Hu replied, returning the basket to his brother.

"Didn't you say anything to Brother Chen?"

"say what?"

"..."

Josh looked at his uncle who was completely clueless, shook his head in his heart, took a basket and empty bowls to wash.When he met his mother later, he asked him for a long time, and he thought to himself: Shouldn't the person involved be asked about this kind of thing?How did he know so clearly? !
