Chapter 98 The Disdained Jia Family
Chapter 98 The Disdained Jia Family (First Update)
The east wing of the front yard.
Chen Li took Aunt Li back home exhausted, and as soon as they entered the door they smelled the strong aroma of meat coming from the backyard.
He put down what he was holding and ran straight to the small kitchen in the backyard: "Brother... I'm back..."
"Is your meal almost ready?"
Wang Dong drooled when he saw Chen Li rushing into the kitchen. He reached out and grabbed a piece of bacon and put it in his mouth, chewing and saying, "Delicious..."
"elder brother……"
"The steamed bacon you made is so delicious. I haven't eaten such delicious meat for a long time..."
“It tastes better than mom’s!”
"You little girl!" Chen Jun patted Chen Li's right hand which was stained with oil.
"Hand wash or not..."
"My brother and I spent so much time cooking but we didn't eat a single bite!"
Chen Li immediately showed an aggrieved expression: "Brother..."
"You don't care about Sister Guan..."
"Do you know how much I ran with my mom just now? We went to the supply and marketing cooperative, the grain station, and the vegetable market... our legs almost broke from running, and we just bought everything we needed for the New Year..."
"I've also bought the green onions that my brother wanted!"
"Luckily we went early, otherwise we wouldn't be able to buy it!"
Wang Dong immediately responded: "Hurry and bring the green onions over!"
"The cabbage and pork dumplings are already made. The only thing left is the pork, egg and green onion filling. I've already made the dough. Once we mix the filling, we can start making them!"
"Once the dumplings are cooked, let's eat!"
…………
On the dining table in the main room.
The steaming carrot and pork bone soup, sweet and sour spareribs, and steamed preserved meat...
All neatly laid out on top.
Uncle Chen, Aunt Li, Wang Dong, Chen Jun... and Chen Li... all sat around the table and feasted on the food.
Chen Li, in particular, looked like a starving ghost, staring at the sweet and sour spare ribs in front of her and eating them voraciously.
A piece of pork ribs covered with sweet and sour sauce was put into the mouth, and the bone was spit out as soon as the mouth and teeth moved...
He swallowed the sweet and sour pork ribs and picked up the second piece of pork ribs...
"Dongzi... I'll toast you with tea... Without you, we wouldn't be able to have such a wonderful reunion dinner!" Uncle Chen picked up the teacup on the table and said to Wang Dong, then drank it all in one gulp.
Wang Dong quickly replied: "Uncle..."
"We are all family, no need to be so polite..."
"I believe our lives will get better and better!"
Uncle Chen nodded: "Well said!"
"We are a family..."
"No need to be so polite!"
"Everyone, eat quickly. It won't taste good if it gets cold!"
…………
The middle courtyard is the home of an uncle.
There were five people from the Jia family, two people from the He family, plus the deaf old lady and the two people from the Yi family, a total of ten people sitting around the table, all waiting for the deaf old lady to speak.
Jia Zhang and Bang Geng stared at the two large chicken legs in the chicken stew with mushrooms, their eyes sparkling and their mouths watering...
"Eat while the food is hot, everyone start eating!"
The deaf old lady drooled at the food He Yuzhu had prepared. Although she had eaten it countless times, she was still full of anticipation. Jia Zhang and Bang Geng were quick to pick up a large chicken drumstick and stuff it into their mouths.
While he was eating the meat in big mouthfuls, his right hand holding the chopsticks was not idle either. He picked up several pieces of meat and put them into his bowl.
In the blink of an eye, half of the chicken in the big pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms was taken away by two people.
He Yuzhu originally wanted to pick up a chicken drumstick for the deaf old lady, but before he could even pick up his chopsticks, the two chicken drumsticks went into Jia Zhangshi and Bang Geng’s stomachs…
I couldn't help but complain: "Aunt Jia...the other chicken leg was for the old lady, why did you eat it!"
"The old lady has bad teeth, she should eat more braised pork!" Jia Zhang explained while eating the meat. Not only did she not show the slightest embarrassment on her face, but she stretched out her chopsticks to pick up the pork belly.
He Yuzhu originally thought that she was going to pick up a piece of pork belly for the deaf old lady to apologize, but unexpectedly, she picked up the pork belly and put it directly into her own mouth, eating it with oil all over her mouth, like a starving ghost reincarnated.
The most exaggerated one is the stick joke.
Jia Zhang took a piece of meat at a time and soon finished half a bowl of chicken and braised pork.
Because he was too young and didn't know how to use chopsticks, he couldn't pick up a piece of braised pork for a long time!
I don’t know if it was Jia Zhang’s idea that gave him this idea, but he just reached out to grab the meat from the bowl.
After eating, he didn't care at all that there were many elders sitting around him, and directly put his greasy paws into the vegetable bowl!
Qin Huairu and Jia Dongxu were slightly better off. Although they were not as miserable as Jia Zhangshi and Banggeng, they also ate meat bite by bite, fearing that they would not eat enough.
more importantly……
Perhaps they were used to seeing Bang Geng grabbing vegetables from the vegetable bowl with his claws, so they did not show any surprise on their faces. Instead, they were very satisfied with Bang Geng's cleverness and did not think that this was unhygienic at all.
After all, they are all family, so even if the food is stained with their saliva, they still enjoy the meal.
He Yuzhu saw several people from the Jia family scrambling to eat the food he cooked. Although he thought that they were being a little impolite, he was mostly happy.
The fact that the dishes he made were so popular showed that his cooking skills had not deteriorated because of the labor reform.
He Yushui...an old man, an old woman and a deaf old lady couldn't stand it.
Especially the deaf old lady and He Yushui.
The deaf old lady was born into a wealthy family in the old society and the food she ate was very modest.
I have never eaten food that was stained with other people's saliva.
He ate two bites of pork belly before he got the stick, but he stopped eating it after he got the stick.
With dissatisfaction on his face, he said: "I'm old... I can't eat too much... I'm full!"
Yi Zhonghai's face was full of embarrassment.
Usually, it is the old couple who take care of the deaf old lady's meals, and no one knows better than them how big the deaf old lady's appetite is.
Maybe because of the lack of oil and water, she could eat half a bowl of the braised pork made by the aunt by herself, not to mention Sha Zhuzuo.
Now he stopped eating after two bites, which showed that he was very dissatisfied with the miserable way Jia Zhang and Bang Geng ate!
The old man was also very unhappy!
Most of today's meals were bought by him and cooked by He Yuzhu, and the Jia family didn't spend a penny.
As a result, before he even picked up his chopsticks, half of the large pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms was eaten up, and all the good meat was picked up by the Jia family's grandparents and grandchildren.
The braised pork was also eaten by Bang Geng, who drooled all over it. Except for the people in the Jia family who didn't mind, no one else would eat a bite after seeing it.
As he thought about it, he became dissatisfied with Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu.
On one side are Jia Zhang's son and daughter-in-law, and on the other are Banggeng's parents.
The old and the young are ignorant, don’t the young people know how to take care of them?
Qin Huairu is the best at reading people's expressions.
After eating several pieces of braised pork in a row, she saw that the old man and the deaf old lady's faces suddenly became ugly, and she immediately poked her husband with her elbow.
Jia Dongxu was not stupid. Seeing that they all frowned at Jia Zhangshi and Bang Geng, he quickly apologized: "Master..."
"My mom and Bang Geng haven't eaten meat for a long time... I'm a little greedy, please forgive me!"
