Chapter 98 The guest(1/2)
Chapter 98: Guests come
After dinner, Xiao Baoer went home to do her homework. Wei Jianguo and Xue Hua rested on the kang. Watching the TV show, Yang Ming and Wei Qingqing cleaned the table together.
Wei Qingqing took the broom and wiped the table clean. She swept the residue into a bowl and took it out to feed the dog. Yang Ming came to move the table.
"Yang Ming, have your animals fed?" Wei Jianguo asked suddenly.
"I fed it this morning." Yang Ming moved the kang table and said.
"I fed it in the morning? Are you really good?" Wei Jianguo quickly put his shoes on his knees, "Your animals are fed once a day?"
"They don't need to go to the fields to work. Do you have to feed them three times a day?" Yang Ming was a little surprised.
"At least I have to feed it once in the evening..." Wei Jianguo put on his shoes and hurried out.
"Dad, wait for me..." Yang Ming put the kang table in the outer room and hurriedly followed him out.
"I'm really... crazy. Now that the farming is mechanized, who still uses animals? What's wrong with feeding it less?" Xue Hua looked at Wei Jianguo running out and gritted his teeth.
There are only one animal in Yang Ming’s family, and they can only be fed once a day so that they can’t starve to death.
"Hmph, my grandfather raised a donkey at home back then. That guy is like a baby and feeds it three times a day... Let me tell you, if the donkey is not full, my grandfather will never go to eat..." Wei Jianguo looked at the crowded animals and ate the fodder, and nodded with satisfaction.
"This is just a beast, is it as for serving like this?" Yang Ming was a little amused and crying.
"Of course, as for livestock, it is the most important means of production for farmers. Think about the days when there are no livestock, and people are harrowing their bodies and raking the ground... What kind of fatigue do people have?" Wei Jianguodao.
"Yes, yes, what Dad said makes sense..." Yang Ming said repeatedly.
"Okay, okay, remember in the future, if the animals are hungry, they will not have the strength. Don't be too ok to say that the donkey and cows are good. The key is horses. This thing is a very expensive thing. Not only do you have to eat bean cakes, but you also have to beat two eggs every now and then." Wei Jianguo taught Yang Ming his not-so-funded knowledge.
"Eat bean cakes? Beat eggs? I don't use it as a war horse, why do I serve you like this?" Of course, Yang Ming just muttered in his heart and didn't dare to say this.
When we went to bed at night, Yang Ming and Wei Qingqing slept in the west room and gave the east room to the two old men.
There was nothing to say all night, and just dawn the next day, Yang Ming went to milk as usual and then processed it into boxed milk.
Wei Jianguo was sent to Xue Hua to make breakfast.
"We are guests now..." Wei Jianguo muttered, reluctantly holding firewood to cook.
"Ah? Why did Dad get up so early?" Yang Ming came back with a few boxes of milk and saw Wei Jianguo cooking.
"Oh! I love bed. I don't sleep soundly in your house. I have nothing to do. I just... make breakfast." Wei Jianguo yawned and said.
"Oh! Dad, please be busy, I won't disturb you..." Yang Ming nodded, got into the west room, and before entering, he also took a big bowl and a pair of chopsticks.
"...Is I busy? Don't disturb me? I won't say I'll take my place?" Wei Jianguo blinked his eyes, sighed dejectedly, and continued to cook.
In a short while, Yang Ming walked out of the west room with a bowl of yellow egg juice, scooped out some fine salt from the salt pot, sprinkled it into the egg juice, and stirred it evenly.
Of course, this egg juice is the egg of the colorful bird. After Wei Jianguo and Xue Hua arrived, Yang Ming hid this thing.
"Dad, go and have a sleep. I'll do the rest of the work for you," said Yang Ming.
"No, no, I am willing to work. I always teach students. It is rare to do a job once, just exercise." Wei Jianguo said.
"You are an elder. Can we watch you work, can we rest on the side?" Yang Ming said with a smile.
"You are still filial? If I don't accept it, do you feel very disappointed?" Wei Jianguo smiled badly.
"Ah...yes..." Yang Ming nodded foolishly.
"My parents feel sorry for their children. You are my son-in-law. It's true that a son-in-law is half a son. Can I not let you be filial?" Wei Jianguo stood up from the stool, patted the soil on his body, got up and washed his hands and entered the house.
“Geehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
There was a burst of laughter from the east and west rooms. It turned out that the mother and the mother had woken up long ago, and they were listening in the room.
So, Wei Jianguo changed to Yang Ming.
Breakfast is still the same as before, including scrambled eggs, fresh milk, porridge, pickled vegetables, and some fruits.
When he put the kang table on the floor of the outer room and arranged the breakfast, Yang Ming suddenly felt a little awkward. The kang table was placed on the kang, but when he was put on the floor, he sat on a small bench to eat, and he would squeeze his stomach when picking up the food, and he was a little frustrated... It seems that he should also buy a large round table.
"The meal is ready..." Yang Ming shouted, reached out and knocked on the door frame of the east room, "My parents, it's time to eat..."
He got into the west room again and picked up the lazy cat who was staying in bed amid Wei Qingqing's coquettish voice.
Wei Jianguo was more interested in big peaches. Before eating, he ate a peach and placed it on the bottom. Xue Hua was interested in apples, so he used a fruit knife to peel the apple skin and cut it into small pieces to eat.
Wei Qingqing was a little dissatisfied with Yang Ming's barbarity and pouted and drank milk.
"My parents, do you think we should buy a round table?" Yang Ming put a piece of scrambled eggs into his mouth.
"Buy a round table?" Xue Hua, who was slicing the apple, stopped his hand, looked at Yang Ming, and nodded: "A family should have a round table."
"If you want me to tell me, don't we have one in our family to make an Eight Immortals table? Or is it from our family's ancestral home, walnut wood..." Wei Jianguo bit the peach and said to Xue Hua.
"Their house is too small, and the Eight Immortals table cannot be folded. If you put the Eight Immortals table, there will be no place for people to stand." Xue Hua said.
"What's the matter? It's compact to put the Eight Immortals table, and life will taste. I remember when we were young, when we were young, the adults talked on the oil lamp, and we children would go to play under the Eight Immortals table." Wei Jianguo said.
"That's fine... When Yang Ming and Qingqing have children, they can still make fun of it." Xue Hua said.
"Did you hear it? Although our Eight Immortals Table is not from the Rosewood and Yellow Flowers, it is also passed down from our ancestors of the Wei family. How nice is your father-in-law and mother-in-law to you? Do you dare to bully their daughter in the future? Are you embarrassed?" Wei Qingqing glared at Yang Ming and said.
"Hehe..." Yang Ming could only smile foolishly.
"You still say it? Do you think your father and I are so stupid? In front of us, you girl dare not go too far. Yang Ming was proud and scolded you. Usually, you might as well bully people." Xue Hua glared at his daughter.
Wei Qingqing stuck out her tongue, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Hmph, do you really think we are fools? We eat more salt than you have..." Wei Jianguo said.
"Wrong, wrong..." Xue Hua pulled Wei Jianguo's sleeve.
"Uh! It's the bridge we crossed, which is more than you eat..." Wei Jianguo quickly remedy it.
"..." Yang Ming and Wei Qingqing looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. This time, they could no longer hold it.
"You... are really..." Xue Hua also made Wei Jianguo amused, gave him a blank look, covered his mouth and laughed.
"I..." Wei Jianguo was puzzled for a long time before finally figuring it out, and he couldn't help but blush.
"Okay! Stop laughing, it's time to have a meal..." Yang Ming forced his smile and pulled Wei Qingqing.
"Yes, yes, I won't smile..." Wei Qingqing's face turned red and she nodded repeatedly.
"If you want to laugh, just laugh, don't hold it in a bad way." Wei Jianguo muttered.
"Puchi..." Yang Ming and Wei Qingqing couldn't help laughing again.
"You guy..." Xue Hua glared at Wei Jianguo, shook his head and laughed.
"What's wrong with me?" Wei Jianguo murmured and continued to eat peaches.
So, the four of them continued to eat in a happy atmosphere.
Didi...
The four of them were having a meal when a car horn sounded.
"It must be Zhang Yang and Fang Fang..." Xue Hua asserted.
"Haha, this is not necessarily the case. Didn't Zhang Yingning say that? They are going to get Hanfu here today." Wei Jianguodao.
"Aunt Zhang is here too?" Wei Qingqing was a little surprised.
Zhang Yingning's business is so big, why do you feel that she is very idle?
"Not only she comes, but her husband also comes..." Wei Jianguo said.
"Is that so? We have known Aunt Zhang for so long and have never seen her husband..." Wei Qingqing was a little curious. What kind of man can live a harmonious life with a strong woman like Zhang Yingning for most of her life?
"As for being so surprised? Sister Liu has made two sets of Hanfu, which is Aunt Zhang and her husband. They are here to try out the clothes today." Yang Ming said.
"You informed them?" Wei Qingqing said.
"It was not me who informed me, but Aunt Zhang called me every few days and asked me about the progress of Hanfu." Yang Ming said. In fact, he also knew that asking about the progress of Hanfu was fake and that it was true to establish a relationship with him. After taking Yang Ming's fishing boat to sea, Zhang Yingning's keen sense of ups and downs in the business world over the years, he naturally knew what kind of relationship he should maintain with Yang Ming.
"Okay, okay, don't say so much, let's see who is coming outside..." Wei Jianguo said, stood up and walked outside. Xue Hua, Yang Ming and Wei Qingqing hurriedly followed him out.
"Haha, Brother Gan, we're here just to come early to have a meal for you..." Sun Fangfang was still so cheerful.
"Brother, you are not kind. You ate good food secretly, and we could smell it from afar..." Zhang Yingning was still so cheerful.
It turned out that it was Sun Fangfang, Zhang Yang, Zhang Yingning and her husband... and the four of them came together.
"Okay, okay, come in?" Yang Ming greeted everyone with a smile. He saw an ordinary middle-aged man, "This is Uncle Xia, right? Please come in quickly..."
I let everyone into the house, but I didn't let them into the inner house. The inner house was not ventilated yet, and the smell was strong and it was difficult to entertain guests.
"Hmph..." Sun Fangfang sat on the small stool, picked up a pair of unused chopsticks and started eating, "This egg is good, it has a strange smell. What seasoning did you add in it?"
"What seasoning? That's our cost of eating. Can you tell you?" Wei Qingqing sat next to her and picked up her chopsticks to eat.
"Stingy and virtuous..." Sun Fangfang gave her a blank look and continued to eat.
"Aunt Zhang, Uncle Xia, you guys are sitting there too, Zhang Yang, and I'll let you ask you?...I'll go fry some eggs for you..." Yang Ming brought four small stools, and after he greeted everyone, he sat down, and took a big bowl into the west room.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and wash some fruits for us..." Sun Fangfang squeezed Wei Qingqing with her elbow.
"Virtue..." Wei Qingqing rolled her eyes and went to wash fruits for them.
To be continued...
