Let the two brothers who just met grin and give themselves medicine, Su Xiaoman went to cook, there was no kitchen in this room before, it just happened that Xie Mingtu built one in the past two days, and gave it back A stove.
At the strong request of Su Xiaoman, Xie Mingtu, who is familiar with physics, made her a home-made "oven".
Xie Mingtu's brother came, and he always had a good meal. When the second brother Jiang came, he also had a lot of things in his hand, including nutritional products such as malted milk powder. There was also a bag of chocolates and the like, which Su Xiaoman didn't look at carefully.
Taro, pumpkin and sweet potato are the most common in the family at this time. These three things are not bad, but they are scary to eat too much, especially pumpkin and sweet potato. If she was Xie Mingtu, she would be hurt for so many years.
There are still two or three crucian carp in the tank. The fish are fat at this time. They were caught by Xie Mingtu yesterday at the riverside. Su Xiaoman originally planned to make crucian carp soup.
There is a can of oil in the kitchen. When they first moved, they went to chop up some lard and made it into lard. Xie Mingtu liked it very much, so she fried him with green peppers twice, and three or two meals were resolved.
Taro, pumpkin, sweet potato and fish are all delicious, but they all need oil.
When Su Xiaoman cooks, she is more willing to put oil than others, but it is not too much. After she has cut the taro pieces, she steams them first, then pours oil in the pot, and puts ginger, onion and garlic Stir-fry with peppers and other ingredients to make braised taro cubes with an attractive aroma.
The crucian carp was also fried in oil first. The boiled crucian carp soup showed a beautiful milky white color. Then put in the sour bamboo shoots and sauerkraut gifted by my mother Liu Shufeng, sprinkle with a handful of beautiful red pepper and Sichuan peppercorn.
She deliberately cooks more soup, Su Xiaoman likes to drink sauerkraut fish soup, which warms the stomach most in such autumn and winter.
Put them in the oven to bake together.
tasty.
…It's much better than boiled pumpkin.
Su Xiaoman didn't cook too complicated dishes, and then fried Chinese cabbage and fried lotus root, I guess it should be enough for three people.
When she was cooking just now, she stared at the pot and hesitated how much rice to put, poured cup after cup, thinking that these two guys should have enough to eat.
After all, pumpkin and sweet potatoes can also be regarded as staple foods, which can fill the stomach.
Xie Mingtu, who gave himself good medicine, wanted to go to the kitchen like a cat smelling fish, but there was still a second brother Jiang, so he had to stay in the room with him Confrontation, the two men chatted a few times.
.
What the two men thought was:
I’m so hungry…
The rice plummeted.
Most of the rice is gone.
Su Xiaoman poured some pickled cabbage and fish soup over the rice and continued to watch them eat.
Pick nothing.
Delicious than anything he's had before.
Jiang Leiyan's speed of eating is learned when he eats a big pot of rice, fast!
Seeing this, Xie Mingtu couldn't help speeding up his speed. Su Xiaoman cooked a few dishes, and the portion was definitely not small. In ten minutes, he was almost eliminated.
The soup of sauerkraut and fish has also bottomed out.
Only a pile of fish bones remained.
"Are you still hungry? I'll cook some more dishes for you." Su Xiaoman thought to himself that the two goods in front of him were reincarnations of rice buckets.
Especially Xie Mingtu, since the two of them left Xie's house and lived alone, Su Xiaoman estimated Xie Mingtu's usual meal size and tried to cook a little more for each meal, every time Xie Mingtu could finish it...
Afterwards, his appetite tripled, Su Xiaoman felt bad for him, and he cooked more for him, but he could still finish it.
This stomach is like a bottomless pit.
After complaining to her mother Liu Shufeng a few times, Liu Shufeng gave some rice, pumpkin, taro, etc., and asked her to give her son-in-law more to eat, "A young man in his twenties can eat like this. of!"
Su Xiaoman thought, don't lie to me, let's not say anything else, even Tang Jianqiang I saw before, didn't eat like this.
A good eater.
Now his brother is here, okay, these two guys are big eaters, super edible.
She went to add food, and the two ate roasted pumpkin together. Second brother Jiang was injured by eating boiled pumpkin in the army. It was the worst thing to see outside the pumpkin. When I saw Xie Mingtu, I took a bite A piece that tasted fragrant and crunchy, and ate it together.
The two brothers ate roasted pumpkin cubes together.
Not to mention, the skin is crunchy and delicious. His younger brother and sister are innovative. It would be better if the pumpkin in the cooking class could be cooked.
"Manman cooking is delicious." Xie Mingtu now eats Su Xiaoman's dishes every day, bubbling with happiness. This is a day he never dared to imagine before.
If he can reach the age of 20 immediately, it would be better to go to Manman to get a certificate immediately.
Xie Mingtu also found it painfully that because Manman's cooking was so delicious, he also ate more and more... I used to not have much of his portion at home, plus it was not good After eating, he just ate a little randomly, and made up for it on the mountain when he was hungry. Because his cooking skills were even worse, Xie Mingtu didn't eat much.
Before getting to know Manman, he always thought that eating was a matter of filling his stomach, but now... he feels more and more that eating is a kind of enjoyment of heart and tongue.
Can't help but want to eat more and more.
"You're really lucky as a kid." Jiang Leiyan's tone couldn't help showing a bit of envy, his younger brother is amazing, and he found such a beautiful daughter-in-law for himself at a young age. It looks good and cooks deliciously.
Xie Mingtu agreed very much, feeling that this brother finally said something nicer.
Su Xiaoman went to cook two more dishes for them, reluctantly finished a lunch, rested after lunch, Jiang Leiyan talked about going back to Jiang's house together, "Let my parents see you."
"My dad asked me to call him this morning, and he told him that he must take you back and see his grandparents."
Su Xiaoman and Xie Mingtu agreed.
Maybe Jiang Yantang will also go to Jiang's house with him, but neither of them asked. Su Xiaoman felt that no matter what, Xie Mingtu should go back to see his biological parents and him brother, sister and grandparents.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Leiyan relaxed. Although he was still sore, his body was a little tired and sleepy. He was a person who could sleep anywhere. If you don't mind sleeping on the ground, it will be noon.
In confusion, he seemed to wander around the room, his eyes could not help but stay on the sewing machine, of course, it was not the sewing machine that attracted him, but a book on the sewing machine work table.
The two elementary school students seem to have several books at home.
Jiang Leiyan became curious and wanted to know what books his younger brother and younger sister read on weekdays, so he walked over and picked up the book on the workbench.
To my surprise, it turned out to be an original English book. It also belongs to the passable kind, but looking at the sentences in it, it still needs to be carefully identified in order to slowly understand their meaning.
How could his younger brother and younger sister read these books at home?
Jiang Leiyan wondered: Do they understand?
The very upright Jiang Leiyan asked directly, "Can you understand this book?"
Xie Mingtu walked over, glanced at it, frowned and asked, "You don't understand this?"
Jiang Leiyan muttered in his heart: I really can't understand it.
But his English level is at least much stronger than that of the two elementary school students.
"Don't you understand?" Jiang Leiyan thought that they had never learned it.
"I understand." Su Xiaoman picked up the book and spoke fluent English directly.
Jiang Leiyan's jaw in shock was about to drop. Now he knows the situation in the school. The focus of the school's work is not on teaching. Even the students in the middle school are still very poor in foreign language.
But... Jiang Leiyan turned his attention to Xie Mingtu again, Xie Mingtu nodded, pointed out a random sentence and read it out, "We are helping an old man translate the manuscript."
Su Xiaoman said, "That old man is an old professor of Nanjiang University, and now he is engaged in translation work."
Jiang Leiyan felt more and more that the words of the two were outrageous.
Two people from elementary school culture told him that they were helping an old professor translate the manuscript. Isn’t this a fantasy?
As a person like me who has completed the military academy, I have no such ability.
In fact, the real genius is Xie Mingtu, and she is just a fake genius, all relying on the experience of her previous life.
"Spoken language we learned from that old professor, the old professor has studied abroad, and the pronunciation is very standard."
…
"These books are all borrowed. Of course, there is no money to buy them. Do you have library cards from the county and city? Don't you city people borrow books? It was Xie Mingtu who read it, yes, he also wrote these topics... For him, there should be no need for teachers to teach such simple things."
"It was only after I married Mingtu that I found out that he was really amazing."
Jiang Leiyan began to doubt his life after listening to it.
Simple?
…Am I really that bad?
"Mingtu can remember it once he sees it."
"I just started learning. I used to be in the countryside, and I didn't have the conditions to contact those things. Fortunately, there was an opportunity to go out to study. It was the first time we came to the city library and saw a lot of books. ."
"Mingtu was in Xie's house before, and Sun Mei didn't read to him..."
Jiang Leiyan was in a trance for a while. If this is the case, then Sun Mei is really hateful. She replaced her smart and talented younger brother and asked their Jiang family to help her raise her son.
Jiang Leiyan looked at Xie Mingtu on the opposite side, with mixed feelings, he began to regret it, did he attack his brother too hard just now.
, and his talented younger brother could only read a few books some time ago.
Too hateful!
Jiang Leiyan is a **** man, and he can't wait to smash that woman Sun Mei into pieces and hurt his brother like this.
Jiang Leiyan clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles creaked, he hugged his younger brother in his arms, spreading infinite guilt.
"Brother, the family will treat you well in the future."
Xie Mingtu tried to push him away, but Jiang Leiyan held him tightly, Xie Mingtu had no choice but to see Su Xiaoman.
Su Xiaoman was standing next to them, looking at them with a smile.
She thinks the second brother Jiang is a good one. Even if the rest of the Jiang family are the same as the original book, it would be nice to have a brother who treats him well.
So he spread his hands and gave him a gesture of helplessness.
You two continue to cultivate brotherhood.
She took a nap first.
Jiang Leiyan went to an educated youth spot after his lunch break. Naturally, he went to Jiang Yantang. After all, Jiang Yantang has been his younger brother for more than ten years. In addition, At the beginning, it was Sun Mei who stole the baby, and Jiang Yantang, who didn't remember anything, didn't know that he was not a child of the Jiang family.
He's also getting a lot of impact right now.
This time back to Jiang's house, of course I hope he will go back together. I don't know if Xie Yazhi has known the truth now, Jiang Leiyan thought of this, he felt that even if his father couldn't bear it, his mother should know the truth at this time.
Maybe it should be spread all over the courtyard.
"Jiang Yantang, your brother...he's here. It's not Mr. Xie, but the brother of your Jiang family."
The educated youth had already received the news that the elder brother of the Jiang family had come to the village. When such a big incident happened, the Jiang family naturally wanted someone to come over.
In addition...if the Jiang family recognizes Xie Mingtu, what about Jiang Yantang? Did Jiang Yantang stay in the Xie family as a son in the future?
When he saw people, he said that the sons he had raised were not filial, and even his own mother was unwilling to visit him. Passers-by asked him why he didn’t go by himself, but he didn’t answer; Mr. Xie and his wife brought six children. It was also difficult to live in the village; not to mention the second Xie’s family, there is no support now, all the housework and burdens are spread on his family, as if he wants to return all the enjoyment before, Xie second and The daughter-in-law, Xu Yanlan, had a small quarrel for two days and a big one for three days, which was purely annoying; Xie Laosan was completely decadent; Xie Caixiang ran back to her husband's house. Sao Wei, no longer planning to go back to her mother's house.
Old man Xie begged this daughter to see Sun Mei, but Xie Caixiang was still unwilling.
"Your mother was so kind to you back then, and you, your own daughter, don't know how to visit her."
"She hurt my second sister-in-law more than my own daughter. Even if she wanted to visit her, she would have to be the second sister-in-law."
Putting those words down, Xie Caixiang left without looking back.
The Xie family has become a complete mess.
Jiang Yantang never went back to Xie's house to take a look. When old man Xie saw this, he lost his heart to him. It seems that this Xie family's ancestral grave is not blue smoke, but black cigarette.
It is the black smoke that harmed their Xie family.
Old man Xie can't wait to have this child now, and now he won't cause the Xie family to die.
Old man Xie has been with Sun Mei for a long time, and he and Sun Mei have the same logic of thinking.
"It's a disaster star, and she killed his mother when she was born."
"I don't know how to be grateful, no matter how much he did wrong, it was for his own good."
In the village, old man Xie scolded Jiang Yantang for not having his duty, saying that he had forgotten his roots, that he was ignorant of good and bad, that he was greedy for wealth, and that he was obviously the descendant of their Xie family, and even pretended to be Jiang children at home.
He has already put his face out, and he came directly to the educated youth to scold him, which made many people watch the excitement.
The one who was wrong was not Xie old man, but Sun Mei and the group of turtle sons she had.
Jiang Yantang completely ignored him, he would not recognize these people as his relatives, he did not have such filthy relatives, Jiang Yantang looked down on the couple, old man Xie and Sun Mei.
He hated his origin.
"Why is this happening to me?"
It all started when he went to the countryside as an educated youth.
People from the educated youth point outside said that Jiang Leiyan was here, and said that they had seen Jiang Yantang at the entrance of the village. Jiang Yantang's heart was pounding. Everyone knows this.
Then Xie Yazhi must know it too.
As soon as the second brother Jiang arrived in Qiaoxin Village, he did not come to see him directly. The former second brother Jiang, under the special care of his mother, would always take care of him, but this time, he As soon as he came, he hurriedly ran to his own younger brother, Xie Mingtu.
The Jiang family will no longer recognize him.
"Jiang Yantang, your second brother is here! It's not the second brother Xie, it's the elder brother of your Jiang family."
Jiang Yantang was not very happy when he heard that Jiang Leiyan had arrived, but he still decided to meet Jiang Leiyan.
In Jiang Yantang's dormitory, Jiang Leiyan saw Jiang Yantang, who had been away for a long time. A few days ago, his mother called and asked him to take care of Jiang Yantang. The man in front of him was no longer his brother.
Even so, his father Jiang Limin told him to take Xie Mingtu and Jiang Yantang back to Jiang's house.
Catch a few casual greetings, Jiang Leiyan didn't know what to say to this younger brother, and he couldn't say anything to comfort him, after all, Jiang Yantang was the one who took advantage , how will his own younger brother be reckoned with for so many years of suffering?
Therefore, Jiang Leiyan cut straight to the point, "You two come back to Jiang's house with me."
Go back together? Including Xie Mingtu?
Jiang Yantang shook his head, "I am not a child of the Jiang family, what qualifications do I have to go back to the Jiang family."
"Mom and Dad want to see you."
A few educated youths watching the fun, such as Lin Baijun, persuaded: "Jiang Yantang, Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang have raised you for so many years, go back and have a look."
Lin Baijun felt that Jiang Yantang would not necessarily be expelled from the Jiang family. Xie Yazhi treated him more than his own son.
Become the godson of the Jiang family in the future.
, without the slightest sense of responsibility.
Such parents gave birth to the excellent Jiang Yantang in front of them.
Lin Baijun doesn't want a man like Jiang Yantang to be delayed by the Xie family. He should have a better future and cannot give up the resources of the Jiang family.
Anyway, the Jiang family has three sons, one more son is not much, and one less son is not a lot, even if there is no blood relationship, but he still has more than ten years of support, so many years of friendship , how can it be simply obliterated?
Besides, Xie Yazhi has a good face, can she really accept the son and daughter-in-law of her country couple? No matter how good-looking they are, the two of them have no culture. When they return to the compound, they will not be ridiculed by others. This is not something Aunt Xie can bear.
Oh, why do you want to expose such a thing?
Both families are in a desperate situation.
Lin Baijun persuaded again: "Jiang Yantang, go back with your second brother, Aunt Xie has raised you for so many years, she must still miss you, if you don't go back, she doesn't know how worried she is. you."
Jiang Yantang didn't say anything, but Jiang Leiyan frowned. He was stunned by Lin Baijun's words.
"Second brother, take Xie Mingtu back, he is your biological brother, I am an outsider, how can I look good and you share the joy of a family." Although Jiang Yantang was almost persuaded just now In his heart, he wanted to go back to Jiang's house, but he still couldn't pass the test in his heart.
He is not the child of the Jiang family, how can he go back.
Lin Baijun was very anxious by the side, thinking that Jiang Yantang was really a fool, he wanted to continue to persuade Jiang Yantang with the second brother Jiang.
Who knows that Jiang Leiyan didn't persuade him a few words, and simply changed the subject, "Okay, then don't go back, you are not the child of our Jiang family."
"I have raised you for more than ten years."
Jiang Leiyan is a rough man, impatient, angry, and completely unable to do that kind of coaxing and persuading. It wasn't supposed to be.
You are used to it, hypocritical.
"I didn't think about it carefully. Your biological parents and brother are here. You should also contact them more. Okay, I'm leaving."
Dad called him to take Xie Mingtu and Jiang Yantang back together, what else would anyone want to bring?
Fuck it, it's none of my business anyway.
The second child of the Jiang family has this kind of personality. After speaking, he left with a big stride.
He really walked, Lin Baijun was dumbfounded when he saw his back.
