Sir, why is your painting style so normal?

Chapter 15 Whose Stewed Lamb?

"What should I give as a gift? There is no meat in the house, so you brat will tease your mother. Just cook it in a while and give it to your grandma to give a bowl."

Mrs. Chen didn't ask anyone to cook anymore, fearing that He's craftsmanship would spoil her good meat, she carried her things back to the kitchen by herself, and then went to the vegetable garden outside the courtyard to pull a few radishes, cabbage, garlic and onions to eat. Back to washing vegetables and cooking.

Chen Shouxing followed her and muttered, "Mom, the taste of boiled mutton is too bland, you have to be willing to stew it with more ingredients to make it delicious!"

Mrs. Chen soaked the cut mutton in water, and she cast a blind eye and scolded him, "If you like to eat it, I will go to the sidelines! The big ingredients are so expensive! There is no such thing in the house!"

Chen Shouxing said with a smile, "I don't have it at home, I have it in my room, mother, I'll go back and get it!"

Seeing the back of him going out, Mrs. Chen murmured, "I used to be so picky about cooking, my life is better, but if I know how to eat it, I will waste my money!"

After a while, Chen Shouxing brought back several small packets of spices and a bottle of cooking wine and said, "Mother, you can use it."

Mrs. Chen took a look at all the fragrant leaves and star anise. She heated up the pot, gritted her teeth and put half a spoonful of lard into the iron pot, and then added ginger slices. Cooking wine and diced white radish, scooped a few ladles of pork bone soup cooked in another pot, covered and stewed.

As the sun set, Old Man Chen and others entered the village carrying firewood, when they saw Mrs. Zhang chatting with others instead of going back to cook.

Old man Chen and his son frowned, looking at Chen Shouhe with dissatisfaction.

Chen Shouhe stopped and shouted angrily, "Ms. He, why are you here without going back to cook?"

Hearing his shout, He was stunned for a while before he could react. When he saw the sky, he slapped his thighs and jumped up in shock, "Oh my God! It's so late? It's over, my mother must be so angry that I beat someone... "

As he spoke, he ran towards the door of his house without looking back.

As the Chen family walked, they suddenly smelled the aroma of oil. The closer they got to the house, the stronger the smell became. They became hungrier and dissatisfied with He.

Chen Shoushan had long been dissatisfied with him and said directly, "Chen Shouhe, you have caused trouble by gambling. In the past few years, I have not cared about you for the sake of my parents. My brothers have helped you raise your wife and children. Now that you are back, give it to me." Take care of yourself and your wife, and don’t try to take advantage of us again!"

Chen Shouhe's face turned blue. He didn't expect that the fourth brother who had been away for a few years would have the courage to dare to speak of him. He was so angry that he was about to beat someone up, "Damn it! Fourth brother, you..."

Old man Chen scolded, "Stop! You two have to roll back and fight again, don't embarrass me outside!"

Then he turned back and said, "Third brother, this happened once or twice today. In the past, because you were not at home, it was not easy for her. Your father and your brother were hungry and endured it. Now you come back to take care of your house. That's it, we can't even eat a meal after a hard day, is that plausible?"

Chen Shouhe also knew that it was outrageous, but he was suffocated and uncomfortable, feeling that his parents had changed. Before, they would never talk about him for such a trivial matter, but now even the fourth child can talk on top of him!

Chen Shoushan felt happy when he saw Chen Shouhe being scolded. He sniffed and asked in a good mood, "Whose stewed mutton?"

Chen Shoujia smiled, "It uses aniseed ingredients and it tastes delicious!"

Chen Shouye thought that the fifth couple were going out today, so he quickened his pace.

Old Man Chen saw his second son suddenly passing him, leaving them all behind, and shouted loudly, "Hey! Why is the second son walking so fast?"

Sister-in-law Liu came back with a vegetable basket. After hearing this, she smiled with a bit of anticipation and said, "Uncle Chen, what else can it be? It's your stew, and he's anxious to go back and eat it! I'm sorry for the two boys smelling it. Wei'er refuses to eat even if she wants to eat. I will have to eat at your house later."

Old man Chen was happy to know that it was his stewed meat, and when he heard her say that he was going to Cengfan, he honestly refused with embarrassment on his face.

Seeing this, Sister-in-law Liu felt that something was going on, and was about to work harder.

Chen Shoushan rolled his eyes, and immediately sprayed people, "Sister-in-law Liu has such a thick face! Open your mouth and come to other people's houses to eat meat. My children don't have enough to eat, and they can't eat meat a few times a year. You still come to grab food, haha !piss off!"

Sister-in-law Liu's words were swallowed back, she held back her anger and looked pitifully at Old Man Chen and Chen Shou's family, wiped her eyes and cried, "Uncle Chen, I'm just joking, I know it's not easy for anyone to eat meat, I didn’t want to take advantage of this, your fourth child is really a bully..."

Old Man Chen was embarrassed and didn't know what to say, "Fourth..."

Chen Shou's family said, "It's not easy for Sister-in-law Liu to take care of two children by herself. Fourth, what you said is too harsh!"

Chen Shoushan curled his lips and said, "Brother thinks it's not easy for her, just give her your share of meat later, it's not easy for her, and neither is it for me! Who is easy!"

Sister-in-law Liu looked at Chen Shoujia expectantly.

Chen Shoujia turned away from her, coughed and touched his stomach and said, "I haven't eaten rice since this morning. My stomach is empty and I have no energy. I have to go back to eat first."

Saying that, he walked away quickly.

Sister-in-law Liu gritted her teeth and scolded him for being stingy, and looked at old man Chen expectantly.

Chen Shoushan said, "Father, the eldest brother and the second brother have gone back. If we don't go back, mother will catch your ear and scold you later."

Old man Chen stiffened his neck to save face and said loudly, "Fourth, what are you talking about? How dare your mother scold you, huh!"

Chen Shoushan watched his father immediately speed up his pace to catch up with Chen Shoushan's family. He glanced at Sister-in-law Liu and quickly followed.

Sister-in-law Liu was so angry that she chopped off her feet and cursed a few words in a low voice at Chen Shoushan.

As soon as the Chen family's father and son entered the courtyard, they heard Mrs. Chen shouting at them in a loud voice, "What are you dawdling about? Hurry up and put your things away and come over for dinner, I'll be waiting for you."

Looking at the stir-fried pork offal with green onions, roasted pork with preserved vegetables and stewed lamb on the table.

Li Fatty's mother and son squeezed their chopsticks and swallowed their saliva.

The little fat man who had already been fed was waving his little hands, staring at the food with his black eyes and drooling, and said with his little mouth, "Mom, I want to eat deliciously..."

"Oh, I'll go, mother, prepare so many meat dishes for me!" Chen Shouhe's eyes lit up, and he looked at Mrs. Chen with emotion.

Everyone in the Chen family: "???"

Mrs. Chen was silent, "What kind of wind and dust are you picking up! Didn't you use wormwood and bamboo leaves to remove your bad luck yesterday?"

Wang Hongmei covered her mouth and said with a smile, "Third cousin, my fifth brother and sister bought this for everyone to replenish, not for my mother to take care of you."

Chen Shouhe was stunned, and then looked at Chen Shouxing with a moved face, why don't you make up for everyone, why just bought it when I came back, the fifth brother must be thinking about me, the third brother.

Seeing Chen Shouhe's self-motivated expression of "I know, I know," Chen Shouxing's brows jumped and he said, "My wife bought this for my family, don't think too much!"

"Yeah, third brother understands what you mean, so you don't need to say more!" Chen Shouhe looked at him with moved eyes.

Chen Shouxing: "..."
