Chapter 88 This son-in-law is so nice
He Daqing is now in his thirties, which is the peak of his appearance. Although Qin Huairu is pregnant, her pregnancy is not obvious at this time. The two of them are wearing brand new clothes from head to toe, and they are particularly conspicuous as soon as they land on the ground.
What's more, when they got married years ago, He Daqing gave the Qin family enough face. These two people have become legends of Qinjia Bay.
"Oh, Huairu brought her son-in-law back to her parents' home!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, the son-in-law of the Qin family is so generous, the fabric he wears is not cheap!"
"Qin Huairu looks like a blessed person!"
Amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, He Daqing, holding the gift in one hand and holding Qin Huairu's hand in the other, walked step by step to the gate of the Qin family's courtyard.
He Daqing naturally would not ignore these neighbors. He quickly took out a bunch of candies from his pocket and distributed them to everyone.
"Uncle and aunt, Happy New Year, Happy New Year!"
"Come on, come on, have some candy, have some candy!"
The villagers had witnessed He Daqing's generosity last time, but today they saw He Daqing actually giving them candies. Although it was only one candy per person, it was already very rare in that era.
Suddenly, all the villagers were even more delighted and kept praising Qin Huairu for finding a good family.
This is how it is in the village. People like to show off in everything. Today, He Daqing has given Qin Huairu enough face.
"Oh my, the Qing Dynasty is here. They came all the way here and brought so many things with them. Come on, come on, come inside and sit down!"
The movement outside the courtyard gate immediately attracted the attention of Qin Dashan and Liu.
The couple started talking about it as soon as New Year's Eve, and hoped every day that Qin Huairu would bring He Daqing to see them. Unexpectedly, on the second day of the New Year, they finally got their son-in-law from the city.
Moreover, from the eyes of the villagers, Qin Dashan also felt particularly honored.
But candies are not cheap, and if He Daqing was allowed to stay at the door any longer, it would be a waste of money. So, without saying anything, he snatched all the gift packages from He Daqing's hands with one hand and pulled He Daqing into the yard.
He Daqing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when watching this scene. He didn't know whether his father-in-law still remembered that they were brothers.
However, now that he is here, if he doesn’t give the Qin family enough face, then his trip would be in vain.
So many people are watching.
Seeing that Liu was wearing an apron, He Daqing took off his mother-in-law's apron and put it on himself.
"Mom, since I'm back, I'll take care of today's meal!"
As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but glance behind Liu.
I thought to myself that my mother-in-law has a really good figure.
Now that Liu and Qin Huairu are standing together, they are not mother and daughter, but clearly a pair of sisters!
After calming his mind, He Daqing went straight to the Qin family's kitchen.
Although it was Chinese New Year, Qin Huairu's family was not well off. They only bought some pork and duck meat. The ribs had been braised in advance, so He Daqing could not continue processing them.
After a little thought, He Daqing had no choice but to process the unprocessed ingredients.
As He Daqing worked on it, soon a burst of fragrant smell came out from Qin Huairu's kitchen.
You know, it's lunch time now. The neighbors were watching He Daqing coming and were talking to each other at the door. When they smelled the fragrance, they couldn't help swallowing.
"After all, he is the chef of Fengze Garden. His cooking skills are not boasted for nothing!"
"I'm so envious. The Qin family has found a good son-in-law. Isn't this New Year's meal equivalent to having a meal at Fengze Garden?"
"No, I can't eat my own food if I keep watching. I have to go back and cook."
In the room, Liu exchanged a few words with her daughter and her face looked very happy.
Although she already knew He Daqing's character and would not treat her daughter badly, she was still surprised when she heard her daughter talk about her life after marriage.
Liu also didn't expect that He Daqing raised chickens and ducks for Qin Huairu and ate delicious food every day.
As expected, if you find a man who is a chef, he really can't stand the injustice in his mouth.
However, He Daqing had come here with great difficulty, and she couldn't let He Daqing work alone, so she got up and walked towards the kitchen.
When she walked into the yard, she naturally heard the neighbors' discussions, which made Liu feel even happier.
Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed the sister-in-law holding Qin Jingru, and immediately shouted,
"Lihua, there aren't many guests at your house today. Huairu comes home rarely, so why don't you come over to our house for dinner? It will be fun for everyone!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lihua, who was holding her soon-to-be-five-year-old daughter, suddenly looked delighted.
"Okay, then I'll call Dagen over!"
Zhang Lihua is Qin Jingru's mother. She is only in her twenties at the time and originally wanted to take her daughter home.
But ever since He Daqing went to the kitchen to cook, his daughter Qin Jingru refused to leave and would cry whenever he hugged her, leaving her speechless.
Moreover, she had to admit that He Daqing's cooking skills were amazing. Just smelling the aroma made her drool.
Now that her sister-in-law asked her to come in for dinner, how could she dare to refuse?
Not long after, Zhang Lihua brought her man Qin Dagen and the family of three to Qin Dashan's house.
As for Liu, she was already in the kitchen, helping He Daqing.
He Daqing and Liu were about the same age, and the Qin family's kitchen was relatively small. As the two of them came and went, there was bound to be some physical friction. As they were working, He Daqing became almost absent-minded.
"Daqing, when will you teach me this skill? I wish I had this cooking skill!"
Liu was completely unaware of He Daqing's gaze and instead kept praising He Daqing.
There was no other way. He Daqing's cooking skills, with its delicious taste and color, brought great honor to the Qin family in the village. As the mother-in-law, Liu liked this son-in-law from the bottom of her heart.
"Mom, look at what you said, there's no secret to cooking. Just tell me which dish you want to learn, it's just a side job!"
He Daqing responded enthusiastically while stirring the spoon.
The two of them chatted and laughed, and occasionally exchanged cooking experiences. Before they knew it, plates of delicious food were placed on the Qin family's dining table.
Looking at the delicious dishes, Qin Dagen couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Brother, you have found a rich husband! I am also benefiting from it!"
Qin Dagen gave his brother Qin Dashan a thumbs up.
"That is!"
Qin Dashan was particularly proud. He glanced at his brother, then looked at the mini version of Qin Jingru next to him.
"But Dagen, you also have a chance. After a dozen years, you can ask Jingru to find a chef, right?"
After saying this, Qin Dagen looked at his daughter Qin Jingru and fell into deep thought.
