Su Xiaoxiao bought some bean pods and fennel at the market. She originally wanted to buy some hot sauce, but after thinking about it, she felt she could go home and make it herself.
When she passed by the old woman's work stall, the old woman called out to her with a dark expression, "Aren't you buying dried plums today?"
Su Xiaoxiao spread her hands and said, "I bought a basket last time. It can last for a long time."
The old woman gritted her teeth. For the thousandth time, she regretted selling it so cheaply.
But other than her, no one else bought it.
The old woman gritted her teeth. "I'll sell it to you at a cheap price!"
Hence, Su Xiaoxiao only spent 50 copper coins to buy another large basket of dried plums.
When they reached home, it was already past lunchtime. The three little ones were so hungry that they were howling. Father Su had cooked, but it was too disgusting.
The three little ones stuck their heads into the rice jar and did not eat the dark dishes made by Daddy Su.
Old Father Su did not eat it either.
Su Xiaoxiao went to the kitchen to cook while Su Ergou helped her.
When she came out, Su Xiaoxiao saw Father Su sitting in the backyard with a log.
Su Xiaoxiao walked over and looked at his hand. "Your hand is injured. Didn't I tell you not to use your right hand anymore?"
Father Su smiled and said, "It won't take much effort. I know what to do. Take it easy!"
"What did you make?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Father Su sighed and said, "I've been busy with outside matters these past two days and neglected the family. You've worked hard. Your uncle and aunt came to visit, and my son-in-law also told me about it. I've made a walking stick for my son-in-law. It'll be convenient for him to move in the future."
Wait.
It seemed to be the case from the beginning. Why did it suddenly change from her being wronged to making a walking stick for Wei Ting?
How did his mind make that leap?
"Dad! Sister! The food is ready! You can eat now!"
Su Ergou barked.
"Let's go eat." Father Su placed the half-made walking stick aside and brought his chubby daughter into the central room.
Wei Ting had already been helped out by Su Ergou to sit down.
Su Xiaoxiao rejected the idea that someone could bask in her glory even while lying down.
However, when she thought of how she had suffocated him this morning, she silently endured it.
She quietly looked at Wei Ting, who was opposite her. Wei Ting slowly picked up his bowl and chopsticks, his expression unchanged.
It was as if nothing awkward had happened. Very good, everyone chose to feign amnesia together.
"Eh, daughter, what dish is this?" Father Su looked at the unfamiliar dish on the table. It looked like pork belly, but it was different from her usual cooking.
"It's braised pork with preserved vegetables," Su Xiaoxiao said. "It's made of pork belly."
She had planned to cook this dish yesterday, but Father Su hadn't returned, so Su Xiaoxiao left it for today.
Coincidentally, she bought bean pods today.
"It's not spicy, right?" Father Su asked.
"It's not spicy," Su Xiaoxiao said.
Hearing that it was not spicy, Father Su picked up a piece for the three little ones.
The three of them used their chopsticks to poke at the meat. Wei Ting frowned.
Father Su said to his son-in-law, "This is how children learn to eat. You have to let them do it themselves."
Wei Ting thought about how before he came to the Su family, the three little brats had indeed been fed by others. After coming here, although they ate miserably, they did it themselves.
Moreover, their appetites had increased a lot.
The braised pork with preserved vegetables was very tender, it was fatty, but not greasy. It melted with a sip. The taste of the preserved vegetables was stewed in it, and the preserved vegetables soaked in gravy and bean paste had a different oily flavor. freewebnσvel.cøm
The three little ones ate until their mouths were oily.
Wei Ting usually did not like greasy things, but he could not help but eat a few pieces.
