Chapter 76 - Dinner for three
Gao Shen stared at Gao’s mother, and finally sighed, “Well, I’m going to make a fire.”
Seeing the figure of Gao Shen leaving, Jing Qing smiled slightly: “Auntie, you will be sitting here for a while, and you will be able to eat soon.”
Mother Gao smiled softly: “Okay. Excuse me!”
“No trouble~ Auntie, you drink the flower tea and sit for a while.” Jing Qingxin quickly made a cup of jasmine tea.
Watching Jing Qing’s heart leave, Mother Gao exhaled just now and quietly looked at the surrounding environment. Originally, she had no chance to go out, but they asked for something, but they were not willing to come. After all, it was very unpleasant at the beginning. It’s their relatives who are a little more unfeeling.
Family affairs have always been decided by the old man, and everyone just needs to obey. Therefore, he always has opinions on the younger son who abandons the letter and obeys the military and goes against his will. In the following years, the younger son sends money back every year, and he is also in the army. The old man’s attitude gradually improved after the calculation was over, but he was always on the air and couldn’t keep his face and say soft words.
Who would have thought that the younger son had an accident, was injured, and was declared by the doctor that he might be disabled. With a big wave of his hand, the younger son was shut out of the house. He believed that this was entirely the result of the younger son’s own fault and his refusal to listen to his advice.
Up to now, when it comes to the younger son, the old man still has anger in his heart, and he is completely resigned to his fate and does not ask questions! But after hearing the rumors and discussions in the village, his mind fluctuated again, but it was impossible for him to take the initiative to come to the door!
As for the eldest son and the eldest daughter-in-law, it seems that they didn’t get any benefit from their visit last time, so they don’t want to come over this time, but they couldn’t bear the ‘peach blossom cake’. In the end, she lost her temper, and finally had to let her come forward!
In fact, she had wanted to see her younger son for a long time, but she knew the old man’s temper, and she just took the opportunity and came here!
Mother Gao couldn’t help sighing deeply, why did a good family become like this?
Mother Gao retracted her thoughts, took the enamel cup in her hand, and took a sip. The fragrance of jasmine flowers swept through her mouth, and the sweet taste instantly made her feel very comfortable.
Mother Gao held an enamel cup full of drinks, and her thoughts were full of thoughts. She hadn’t had tea for a long time, let alone such a fragrant flower tea. It seems that the girl’s conditions at home must not be bad.
She didn’t quite believe the rumors in the village. Looking at the curtain behind her, she understood that this should be the place where the girl rested. She still understood her son, although the younger son had been away from home for eight years. It has been a long time, but as the saying goes, three-year-old is defined, when the youngest son left home, he was already seventeen years old, and she still understood what his conduct was.
When Mother Gao finished drinking the scented tea, dinner was ready. Jing Qingxin held a plate of sweet and sour fish, and Gao Shen held a pot of fish noodle soup. The two placed them on the wooden table in the main room.
Gao’s mother looked at the dinner on the table, her eyes couldn’t help but be slightly surprised. It was mainly fish and other foods, which were rarely seen, not to mention the thin white noodles in the bowl. She hadn’t eaten dry noodles for a long time. Money can’t necessarily buy it, you have to have a ticket.
Gao Shen went out again and brought a plate of cold folded ears, as well as the three people’s bowls and chopsticks. There was only a little left of the folded ear root that was picked up. Jing Qingxin originally kept it for dinner tomorrow, but when Gao Mu came, it was a little simpler to have just one fish, so Jing Qingxin had to give the remaining folded ear root to the table. It’s cold!
Jing Qingxin used chopsticks to pick out a bowl of noodles for Gao Mu, filled some fish soup, and handed it to Gao Mu, Qianrou said: “Auntie, this is fish soup noodles, this is the sweet and sour fish I made, this plate is The cold pork rind arch, you can try it~!”
Gao’s mother felt that Jing Qing’s heart was treated with courtesy and warm attitude, and couldn’t help but warm her heart and smiled: “Oh, it’s good~ It looks very good.”
Afterwards, the three of them sat at one side of the wooden table and ate soft noodles. Mother Gao felt even more relieved, thinking that her younger son had a good life.
Since she separated her young son, she has been worried about him, worried that he will be injured alone and no one will take care of him, worried that he will not be able to eat hot food, but she is even more annoyed by herself. no way.
“Auntie, try this sweet and sour fish~” Jing Qingxin watched Gao’s mother keep her head down, eating the noodles in the bowl, worried that she would feel uncomfortable and embarrassed, so she took the initiative to take a piece of fish and put it in in her bowl.
Mother Gao raised her head and said kindly, “Well, okay, these noodles are delicious.”
“You can eat more if it’s delicious, there’s still some in the pot~” Jing Qing said briskly.
This noodle is a bag of dried noodles that she bought when she bought dry food. Naturally, it is a little more refined than this era. They have cooked it once before, and Gao Shen likes it very much. Therefore, she wants to make fish while there is fish soup. Noodle soup, unfortunately no vegetables.
In the end, the three of them ate all the fish soup noodles. Jing Qingxin only ate one bowl. Her stomach had developed a certain amount, and she couldn’t take it any longer. Mother Gao ate two bowls, and the rest It was solved by Gao Shen. Jing Qingxin watched him eat and felt panicked for him, but he didn’t feel it at all!
After dinner, the night fell slightly, and Jing Qingxin and the two could not delay Gao’s mother’s return home. Before it was completely dark, they could hurry on the road!
Jing Qingxin went to the stove, took out the last fish from the space, found a straw rope to tie it to, and was going to let Mother Gao take it home. She originally came with a mission, if she didn’t bring anything back, It is estimated that she will be angry again. Although Gao’s mother’s temperament is softer, Jing Qing can feel that for this mother, Gao Shen still has a mother-son relationship in her heart.
In addition to this fish, Jing Qingxin couldn’t find anything else to give from this family. As for the things in her space, she doesn’t have to think about it at all. Do you miss it? !
“Auntie, take this fish back and make it for my uncle~” Jing Qingxin carried the straw rope and handed it to Mother Gao.
Seeing that it was a big fish, Gao’s mother quickly shook her head and refused: “No, Xiaojing, I can’t take it, I ate a lot just now, keep this fish for you to eat, isn’t Gao Shen recovering? Leave it to him to make up for it. Replenish your body.”
“Auntie, this fish was caught in the river. We have quite a few of them. We can’t eat them all, and they will spoil if we leave them alone. Besides, I’ll catch them after we eat them, so the fish won’t be eaten. .” Jing Qing smiled and persuaded them, they were all fish for the past two days, in fact, she also felt tired of it, and besides, she and Gao Shen were going to the mountains tomorrow, so she didn’t worry about not having meat to eat.
Gao Shen took the fish and said to Gao’s mother, “Let’s go, I’ll give you a ride, and it will be dark if you wait any longer.”
“Alright then, Auntie walk slowly, come and play when you have time~” Jing Qing said farewell with a smile.
