Chapter 168 Sister and Sister
Chapter 168 Sister and Sister
After Shen's mother and Liu Ying left, Xiao Baoer gave the snacks she had just made to the children and asked them to eat some to fill their stomachs while she and Shen Zhensheng went to prepare lunch.
Yesterday, Xiao Baoer promised Erbao that she would make him rice with crackling rice, so she prepared to make mushroom chicken and beef clay pot rice. She first processed the ingredients and then asked Shen Zhensheng to follow the steps she had said.
While Shen Zhensheng was cooking the clay pot rice, he also fried two light vegetarian dishes.
"Dabao, Erbao, Sanbao, stop playing, it's time to eat," Shen Zhensheng called to the three children who were playing in the yard, and then brought the meal to the dining room.
The three children were already sitting in a row on the stools. Dabao knew it was Rourou as soon as he smelled it, "Mom, is it Rourou?"
"Yes, Daddy made two kinds of clay pot rice for you, one with chicken and one with beef. There are rice crusts in them. You can eat whichever you like."
He served the three children their favorite clay pot rice and placed a bowl of soup in front of each of them. However, Shen Zhensheng was afraid of scalding the children, so he waited until the soup had cooled before he dared to put it in front of the three children.
"Mom, do you and Dad have to earn a lot of money so that my brother and I can eat as many delicious foods as we do now? I won't ask for delicious foods in the future. You and Dad should stop arguing," Dabao suddenly said to Xiao Baoer.
"Why do you say that? Why did you think about making money? Who said that my dad and I were going to have a fight?"
Dabao was eating and saying, "We just went to play with Brother Xiaohe for a while, and heard Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt arguing."
Shen Zhensheng continued to ask Dabao, "What did Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt quarrel about?"
"Aunt Four scolded Uncle Four for being useless and unable to build a big house. Uncle Four scolded Aunt Four for not making as much money as Mom. Then the quarrel got more and more intense, and Sixiu was scared and cried."
Shen Zhensheng and Xiao Baoer looked at each other and secretly decided in their hearts that they should not let the children go to the old house alone to play with Xiaohe and Damei in the future, so as to avoid any bad influence from the fourth room.
Shen Zhensheng sighed and said to Dabao, "Son, of course we can only live a good life if we work hard, but now you and your brother are both children, so you don't need to think about these issues."
Dabao looked at Shen Zhensheng sincerely, "Do you and mom quarrel? Do you quarrel like your uncle and aunt do?"
"Of course not. Not only can you always eat good food, use good things, and live in a good place, but mom and dad will never quarrel. But there is one thing you must remember. Mom and dad have told you before. You can never deliberately bully others and think that you are more valuable than others. Everyone is equal."
Dabao and Erbao nodded. Erbao suddenly said, "Dad, the children of Fourth Aunt are so pitiful. Fourth Aunt even called them money-losing goods. Mom, then are the three of us money-losing goods?"
Xiao Baoer picked up some vegetables for the three children. When she heard this question, she remembered what Shen Zhensheng said about preferring daughters to sons. She suddenly wanted to laugh, "Eat quickly. You are not sons. You are your parents' treasures, including the little brother or sister in your belly. They are all your parents' treasures."
When Erbao heard his mother talking about the brother and sister in her belly, he corrected her anxiously, "Mom, it's not a brother and sister, it's a sister and a sister."
Xiao Baoer suddenly laughed. Last time, the children also said that they were pregnant with two little sisters. How afraid they were that she would give birth to a little brother for them? The whole family wanted a cute little girl.
Shen Zhensheng smiled happily when he heard his son's words. Of course, he hoped that his son was right. If he had two daughters, life would be so wonderful, so beautiful that he couldn't even imagine it.
Shen Zhensheng: Son, if you can speak, just say more.
Xiao Baoer finished laughing and said, "Okay, okay, it's my sister and sister, come and eat. Don't believe what others say next time you hear them outside, okay? If you don't know what it means, you can come back and ask mom and dad."
Dabao and Erbao said they understood at the same time. As for Sanbao, he was immersed in eating. Anyway, he didn’t go out to play with brother Xiaohe today, so he couldn’t understand what they were saying. He was just curious about how his brother had time to think about so many things while eating. The food smelled so good.
After the three children had their afternoon nap, Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng discussed this issue, "Wife, do you think we should let the children eat wild vegetables and whole grains?"
"No, although we say that we should let children remember the hard times and think of the good times, I still don't want to let them suffer. As long as we educate them well and don't lead them astray like Li Sanni did, that's all."
Shen Zhensheng wanted to sigh when talking about the fourth room. He really couldn't understand why the fourth son Shen became like this. He couldn't tolerate Xiuxiu and the fifth son before, and now he can't even raise his own children well. He doesn't try to make the family live a good life every day. He just lives a life of eating and waiting to die. There is really nothing he can say.
Xiao Baoer continued, "Okay, don't think too much, husband, let's go into the space and eat ice cream while the child is asleep."
"Can you eat now? What if you feel sick?"
"No, no, I'll just have a little bit. You haven't had ice cream before, so try it."
Unable to resist Xiao Baoer's nagging, Shen Zhensheng had to agree to go into the space with her and let her eat a little to satisfy her craving.
Xiao Baoer opened the large freezer that contained ice cream and immediately became so hungry that she almost forgot how long it had been since she had eaten it.
Xiao Baoer tore open a box of mango ice cream and scooped a spoonful into Shen Zhensheng's mouth before he saw her. The coolness made him shiver.
"Ahhh, it's cold." It was the first time Shen Zhensheng ate something so cold, and his mouth couldn't accept it for a moment.
"Hahahaha, you're making me laugh to death," Xiao Baoer couldn't stop laughing when she saw Shen Zhensheng's look.
Shen Zhensheng felt better after he swallowed the ice cream in his mouth. He tasted it and found it tasted quite good.
"Wife, have another bite, it's really delicious," Shen Zhensheng opened his mouth to take another bite.
"It tastes good, right? I told you I wasn't lying to you. Here, spoon, let's eat together," Xiao Baoer handed him a spoon.
Xiao Baoer had previously decorated a room in the villa specifically for watching movies and had taken Shen Zhensheng in there, but the two of them had never watched a serious movie together.
"Honey, let's go to the movies. I remember I tried it last time and found that I can play movies in that room in the space."
"Okay, you go upstairs with your ice cream and watch the movie first. I'll get you some fruit and water. I'll be right there."
The two of them had a clear division of labor. When Shen Zhensheng came in, Xiao Baoer had already put all the movies on the screen. She had even specially selected an old movie, "Honghu Red Guards."
"Have you seen this movie? It should have been released in 61. It should have been shown in the countryside."
"No, I joined the army very early. I was occasionally released in the army, but I was on many missions and sometimes I couldn't make it. The first time I watched a movie was when my family and children watched a movie in the county."
Shen Zhensheng answered Xiao Baoer's questions, but his eyes were fixed on the screen, watching the movie seriously, and he did not forget to feed Xiao Baoer and himself ice cream with his hands.
Xiao Baoer herself also likes to watch old movies and is fascinated by them. The two of them sat on the sofa, eating and watching movies, and had a very comfortable time.
Nearly two hours had passed by the time the movie was over. During the film, the two occasionally discussed the plot. Shen Zhensheng also mentioned the missions he had performed when he was in the army. Xiao Baoer could see that he missed his comrades a little.
