Chapter 385: how dare I be reluctant?
Today, they were driving a business car with large interior space and trunk space, enough for them to store a lot of things. After packing everything, Li Haitang drove home as a chauffeur, letting two men who had long lost their spirits sit and rest.
It was still about 40 minutes before they returned to Fenglinya county. As soon as the car stopped, the neighbor next door was taking out the garbage and asked with a smile, "This weekend, where did your family go to play?"
"Sister-in-law, I took the children to the suburbs for a picnic today." Li Haitang came down from the driver's seat with a smile and warmly invited, "Sister-in-law, we brought back a lot of fish from the reservoir today and brought one home for stewing."
"Ouch, you worked so hard to get it. We won't take it. You can keep it for yourselves." The other party was standing in front of his own house.
"Aunt yao, my father cast a net and caught a lot of fish. A lot of fish. Come and get them." Duoduo was generous, and he was counting the fish in the trunk with his fingers.
Jiang Chuheng just got out of the car, and also invited with a smile, "Sister-in-law, come and take one back to eat. Grass carp and bighead carp are both here. What you brought back today are all big ones. It's the best for stewing soup."
"Okay, then I won't stand on ceremony." The other party came over with a smile.
Liao Minghui opened the trunk, removed the two large plastic baskets, and opened the lid for her to see. "All the fish are seven or eight kilograms. The water in the fish reservoir is good, and it tastes good."
"Oh, these fish are really good. My old liu likes to eat bighead fish head, so I picked out a stew for the night." The other party casually took one from the basket.
"Take whatever you want." Jiang chuheng brought back so many fish, and he had the intention to send one to his neighbors. He said to liao shan, who was standing beside the car, "Xiao shan, go get a bucket and leave a few fish at home. I'll send the rest to the neighbors now. I'll split it quickly so that the temperature won't affect the taste."
"Okay." Liao Shan immediately ran into the house.
When jiang chuheng sent the fish, Li Haitang also asked the neighbors to come over and pick some wild vegetables to eat. Now they all live in the big city, and the vegetables they eat are bought in the supermarket, so they rarely eat this kind of wild vegetables. This natural and unpolluted wild vegetable occasionally eats a meal or two, and it actually tastes quite good.
The neighbors didn't take their fish and vegetables for free either. Soon, all the families brought some fruit and food to An' an Duoduo, and the relationship between the two neighbors became more and more harmonious.
At about four o' clock, Li Haitang called the two children at home to take a bath, change into clean clothes, and pack up all the dishes that were going to big brother's house. He left in half an hour to catch dinner before he left.
"Uncle, eldest aunt, elder brother Zitong, we're here."
As soon as they reached jiang chuyan's house, the car had not stopped yet, so Duoduo shouted at the house.
Jiang Chuyan has a higher rank in the army and a separate unit. It's a two-story building. Xie Fangfei is a person who knows a lot about life. She arranges the inside and outside of the small foreign building like a garden, and plants potted flowers all over the place. She also learned this from Chu Hongmei. These precious flower seeds came from her mother-in-law.
Jiang Chuyan pushed the door out of the living room, opened it all, and asked casually, "Duoduo, where did you go for a picnic today? Is it fun?"
"Fun. Uncle, it's super fun." The door was already open, and Duoduo jumped down skillfully and flew towards uncle, reporting happily, "Uncle, dad hunted pheasants and rabbits today, and also caught a lot of fish. My brother and I also picked up Snail and clams, and elder brother Jie caught a lot of eels."
"You still know how to pick up the Snail?" Jiang Chuyan lowered his head and touched her little head.
"Yes, I picked up half a bucket and two clams." Duoduo showed it to him with his fingers.
An' an, who followed closely, also reported excitedly, "Uncle, I picked up a lot of mussels. What a big man. We had lunch and there was still a bowl left. Mom brought them all over and said they were going to cook for everyone tonight."
Xie Fangfei had already prepared food with the nanny in the kitchen. Hearing their voices, Li Haitang came in carrying a lot of dishes. "What good dishes have you brought?"
"Two fish, not much clam meat, Snail meat and eel. There's also a turtledove. Make some gastrodia soup for mom and dad later."
"Okay, I'll do it. These are all good dishes for drinking. They'll be ready later." Xie Fangfei reached out for them and said, "Come in and sit down. The others are not active and haven't come yet. Let's watch tv for the four of you."
They followed them into the house and saw that the living room was empty. Li Haitang asked casually, "Where's zitong?"
"I just asked him to drive over to pick up his grandparents for dinner. I think they're coming back soon." His son is going to college tomorrow, and they are calling their family over for a meal tonight to practice for him.
Jiang Zitong quickly took over his grandparents. The xie family were both very friendly and talkative intellectuals. Before they retired, they were both professors of the Beijing university and especially liked smart children. An' an and Duoduo were not only smart and studious, but also very polite and obedient. The two elders liked their brother and sister.
Li Haitang helped out in the kitchen for a while. After helping to prepare the side dishes, he came out to talk to the elders in the living room.
"Zitong, are you all packed?" Jiang chuheng had just chatted with the xie family for a while when he saw his nephew striding down from the second floor with a new notebook that Li Haitang had bought for him.
"I've packed up and brought your two bottles with me." In the last sentence, Jiang Zitong was grinding his teeth.
Li Haitang smiled helplessly and teased him, "But you have to protect these two bottles of wine. This wine is so valuable that it can be compared to the notebook in your hand."
"Extravagance!"
Jiang Zitong could not understand the behavior of these alcoholics, and his face was full of resentment, "Little aunt, you are simply spending money to clean me up. If you have too much money to spend, you can send me more."
"This wine is free. My good friend from country f gave it to me. I have a half cellar at home. Your little uncle doesn't drink very often now. There's no one in the house to drink. He's always looking for a way to send more out." Li Haitang laughed and teased.
"If you can't finish it, you can sell it. Once you sell it, there must be a lot of people who want it. You don't have to give it away for nothing." Jiang Zitong wailed.
Jiang Chuheng laughed and said, "This wine is the same as a notebook. When your little aunt gave you a notebook, you were so happy that you jumped up and down. Our husband and wife asked you to bring two bottles of good wine to my classmate. Why are you so reluctant?"
"I'd rather, I'd rather not." Jiang Zitong didn't want to argue with them, so he sat down in front of Li Haitang with his notebook in his arms. "Little aunt, we won't talk to little uncle about his wine. We'll watch the movie. This new m-nation blockbuster is super awesome. The plot and special effects are really amazing. You must like it too."
Li Haitang glanced at it and told him with a smile, "I finished it a few months ago."
Jiang zi's childish heart was stuffed. "It just came out online. Where did you read it?"
"When I was on a business trip abroad, it was just released. My friend gave me tickets to the first movie." Li Haitang also liked the movie and deliberately provoked him, "I still have two co-signatures of the stars in my hand. Do you want one for you?"
"What do you think!" Jiang Zitong roared.
"You didn't tell me earlier. I didn't bring it here. If you want it, drive to my house and get it yourself." Li Haitang took a bunch of keys from his carry-on bag and gave them to him. "It's a big study on the second floor, the third row of bookshelves. In the blue folder on the left, there's the sign of the star."
Jiang Zitong threw his notebook at her, grabbed the key, and ran as fast as the wind.
