Chapter 388: The Candy You Never Get Tired of
Chen Hao, Chen Li and Zhou Xiaoya's younger brother finished eating a roasted bird before the village closed for business.
It was the first time for the little boy to eat this authentic "barbecue" and he even chewed the bones several times.
"Is it delicious?"
"Uh-huh."
"Then you have to call me big sister from now on!" Chen Li said to the little boy seriously.
"big sister!"
"Yeah, hehe, you're so good."
Chen Feng looked at the little sister imitating his previous tone of voice and gave her a candy.
Did I teach her bad things before?
He asked himself, thought quickly, and felt that his teachings were very positive.
Here, Grandpa, Chen Jianjun, the two cousins who had finished eating, and Zhou Xiaoya were all dealing with the prey that Chen Feng had killed.
Grandma lights the fire and cooks.
After about ten minutes, my uncle Zhou Jing and others came back.
"Hello uncle, hello aunt!"
Chen Li had nothing to do, so she squatted beside Zhou Fubo and watched him plucking feathers. When she heard the footsteps of her uncle and aunt, she stood up, turned around and ran out of the yard.
As soon as she saw her uncle and aunt who were just a few meters away, she started to speak sweetly to them.
She reaped the benefits.
Every time Huo Zhilan and Zhang Haixing came, she would most likely receive a gift if she called out.
"Oh, Lily is beautiful again."
Zhou Jing ran over with a smile, picked up his niece and spun her around.
"Hehe, uncle has grown taller too." Chen Li imitated others' compliments on Chen Feng and Chen Hao and used them to fool Zhou Jing.
Zhou Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I'm already this old, how can I grow taller?"
"whee."
As soon as the aunt saw the oil stains on her two sons' lips, she knew that Chen Feng must have given them oil again.
“How much oil is wasted?”
Zhou Dinghai refused to speak.
Zhou Fubo was even more cunning and tried to get away with it: "Mom, there aren't many. We're almost done roasting them. My cousin just came over, so he only brushed them once or twice."
My aunt entered the kitchen and saw the bowl on the table. She looked down at the oil stains on the edge of the bowl and the oil surface and found that it was one centimeter lower.
I feel so heartbroken!
This centimeter of oil is enough for her to cook for several days.
"Fortunately, I came back late, otherwise I would be heartbroken again."
Zhou Jing secretly pulled Chen Feng's clothes, a little embarrassed, and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Feng, do you have any cigarettes?"
Chen Feng smiled and asked, "Did your aunt confiscate your money again?"
Zhou Jing became extremely depressed when he mentioned this.
Ever since his wife knew the price of Daqianmen, she used all kinds of threats and inducements to get out of him that he had smoked at least 5 packs of Daqianmen.
So they settled the bill with him and deducted three months' worth of cigarette money from him.
"I brought one and gave it to grandpa. You can ask him for it."
Zhou Jing was overjoyed, nodded vigorously, and said in a low voice: "I will say that your grandfather gave it to me. Don't say that you bought it, otherwise your aunt will deduct my change again."
Chen Feng smiled and nodded.
The Zhou family is different from the Chen family. Uncle Zhou Jing never holds back when beating his son, but the accounts are managed by his aunt.
The two younger ones in the Chen family were not afraid of their biological father, because every time when he got angry, he would persuade them with kind words and never beat them.
The one who beat them was Zhou Qing's mother.
But the family’s money and supplies were all decided by the easy-going Chen Jianjun.
Fortunately, the two grown men have one thing in common, that is, they love their wives very much and will not cheat on other women.
"Brother Jing, what are you doing outside? Come and help your parents."
My aunt came out and saw Zhou Jing and Chen Feng talking and laughing, and immediately shouted.
"coming!"
Zhou Jing trotted over.
Chen Feng smiled and watched his uncle go to work obediently.
Even though my aunt is the head of the household, my grandparents are actually the ones who make the decisions. However, the two old people rarely intervene in matters and just trust that my aunt can do a good job.
Unlike the Chen family, Zhou Qing is still too honest and kind, and does not understand the cunning of the beasts.
Thinking of this, he found that Zhou Jing and Zhou Qing were very similar.
喜欢讲规矩，爱揍孩子，听爱人话···
They are worthy of being grandpa’s children.
When dinner was almost ready, Zhou Xiaoya's family came running to call her back.
"Goodbye, big sister!"
"Goodbye little brother."
The two little guys waved goodbye.
There was still some rice left from what Chen Feng brought last time, but as long as he was not around, all the rice would be used to make porridge.
As relayed by Zhou Dinghai.
"Why are you eating rice? Other families can't even drink porridge. I didn't give you porridge, so you should be thankful to God and your cousin!"
To make porridge, one cup of rice is enough for several people to eat.
If we switch to eating, we will only consume three times the amount of rice.
My aunt, who is frugal and manages her household well, naturally prefers to cook porridge.
Although porridge is not filling, it is much better than noodles.
A mixture of fish, duck eggs, cabbage, etc., the standard of this daily life is already very high in the countryside, almost comparable to that in the city.
“Rice is still delicious!”
"I prefer the egg fried rice made by my brother. That's the most delicious rice." Chen Hao sat on the chair, put down his chopsticks and said, "My brother used to make mutton rice with eggs. It was delicious."
"Yeah, that's delicious." Chen Li also likes to eat egg fried rice.
However, fried rice should not be eaten often, as it is thick in oil, high in calories, and can easily make you fat. Moreover, eating too much can cause indigestion, getting angry, and other problems.
Chen Feng also cooks occasionally to satisfy his own and the two foodies’ cravings.
After dinner, Zhou Jing asked his father for a cigarette.
Grandpa came into the room and gave him a packet.
"Just smoke it yourself, don't give it to others, this cigarette is expensive."
"I got it, Dad." Zhou Jing winked at his aunt, indicating that this was not bought by him, but given to him by his father.
Chen Feng took out five tomatoes from his bag.
"Chen Hao, cut the tomatoes."
"Okay, big brother!"
Chen Hao had seen Zhang Haixing cut tomatoes several times. He followed the previous method, cut the tomatoes and sprinkled a layer of sugar on them.
The candy that Chen Feng placed at Zhou's house was hardly touched.
This thing is too precious, and grandpa and his family are reluctant to use it. Even if the two cousins are greedy, they can only eat dried fish and barbecued meat, and cannot drink sugar water.
Only when Zhou Jing goes fishing at night will he get a pot of sugar water.
"Oh, okay, okay, don't put it in anymore." Grandma saw that Chen Hao had only spread one layer and it was not enough, and wanted to put in more, so she immediately asked him to stop.
"Grandma, my eldest brother has a lot of candy."
"That's not OK!"
There was no choice but to sprinkle a layer of sugar on the tomatoes and share them.
"Grandpa, grandma, this is tomatoes with sugar. It's delicious. I can never get tired of it."
Grandpa said distressedly: "It's all sugar, how can you get tired of it? If it were me, I would eat it every day and never get tired of it."
"Grandpa, I'm not tired of it either. I eat it every day at home and it's delicious." Chen Li's "honesty" made her grandpa, grandma, aunt and uncle feel distressed.
"Oh my god, how much candy does that require?" my aunt asked in surprise.
"There's so much sugar in the big pot!" Chen Li drew a big circle with her hands.
Chen Feng smiled and said, "Aunt, drink the sugar water if you need it."
There were too many fruits in the space, so he could only use them to make sugar and feed the waste to migratory birds.
