Chapter 25

Xiao Huang was still wagging his tail, and leaned forward, wanting to share a piece of the pie, but was kicked away fiercely by Shen Feng.

These three crucian carp were fish baskets from the previous day, and Huo Lin went to collect them. They were kept in the water tank in the courtyard. After she came back from the outside, she took the time to clean them up, and boiled them all morning on a low fire.

Unexpectedly, after being busy for a long time, the three of them were at a disadvantage.

Probably because he was in a hurry, Shen Feng was suddenly stuck by a fish bone, and he held his neck and clicked it several times.

Zhou Laidi was terrified, "How is Feng'er, mother patted you, look at you, what are you doing eating so fast, and no one is robbing you."

Shen Yan complained: "The crucian carp they caught was too small, and the fishbone was as thin as a strand of hair. Can it not get stuck? Fortunately, I didn't eat fish."

Zhou Laidi felt that it was reasonable, turned her head to Shen Hui and said: "Next time I will catch fish and pick big crucian carp to make soup. Don't fool around with such small things. See if you got stuck with your brother. Son, is it better?"

Shen Qing sat in the courtyard, twitching the corner of his mouth several times, and said loudly to Shen Hui: "Sister, is our second aunt confused? She thinks this is Xinghua Village, and that we haven't been kicked out of the home yet!"

She used to like to run around, all year round, outside the cage, catching fish, rice field eels and small red shrimps.

Every time I take it home, grandma always sends it to my second aunt’s house.

But the second aunt thought it was troublesome, so she gave it to Shen Hui to make, and she came back to eat the ready-made ones.

No, this has become a habit.

Shen Qing used to be too lazy to argue with her, but now it is different, since they are not a family, naturally they have to settle accounts.

Shen Yan put down the bowl, walked out with a bad expression and said, "Aren't I just going to eat your can of crucian carp soup? Look at how stingy you are, I will pay you back later."

"You pay it back, what do you give it back? Do you know how to go down the river to catch fish, or do you know how to cook fish soup? You've grown so big, you haven't even killed fish a few times, have you?"

"That thing is so fishy. I'm just being polite. If you take it seriously, don't blame me. Mom, look at her, she is so stingy, just like her mother!"

Zhou Laidi poked her head out, "Like mother, like daughter!"

Shen Qing became angry, "Zhou Laidi, say it again, believe it or not, I'll tear your mouth apart!" She stood up abruptly, staring at her fiercely.

Zhou Laidi is a stretcher, and when she saw that she was angry, she immediately confessed, "If you don't say it, don't say it, why are you in a hurry, and, I'm your second aunt, don't always call me by my name, No big or small, no rules, I'm going to turn my face!"

Shen Qing snorted coldly: "I don't want to be impatient with you, but if the second aunt talks about my mother again, I will do anything. And you! Shen Yan, what can you say about my mother? If you ask me to hear it again, I'll dig a hole right here and bury you today!"

"You, you dare!" Shen Yan was still stubborn.

Shen Qing smiled evilly, "It's driving me into a hurry, see if I dare!" She twisted her neck and shouted towards the wall, "Huolin!"

"Here we come!" Huo Lin, who was listening to the corner next door, was eagerly listening, and came running, rolling up his sleeves excitedly, "Sister Qing, tell me, what are you doing!"

"Smelly girl, you still want to kill people!" Zhou Laidi's eyes almost popped out.

Shen Yan also said stubbornly: "Mother, what she dares not do is to scare people!"

Shen Hui kept a stern face, and put the shovel in her hand, "Qing'er, I heard from Uncle Fan that tigers often come down the mountain here, so it's not a big deal for the tiger to kill a few people, right?"

Shen Qing nodded solemnly, "That's true."

Shen Feng squatted on the side, giggling as if it had nothing to do with him, as if he was just watching the fun.

Zhou Laidi knew that she couldn't offend them both, so she immediately changed her face and said with a flattering smile, "Oh, can't we make a mistake? Look at you two, you can't even take a joke!"

Shen Qing said seriously: "Second Aunt, some jokes are not allowed!"

"Then don't open it, just don't open it. Oh, by the way, Second Aunt brought some eggs and a piece of bacon. I haven't finished eating it during the Chinese New Year. I will wash it later and steam it in the pot. It's time to eat." Zhou Laidi is definitely Great people, and a great attitude.

"Mother!" Shen Yan was dissatisfied with her mother's gesture of making peace, and felt it was too shameful.

"Shut up! Go wash the dishes after eating, and I'll talk to Qing'er." How could Zhou Laidi let her spoil a good thing.

"I won't do it!" Of course Shen Yan refused to wash the dishes, and turned around and walked out.

"This kid is so ignorant!" Zhou Laidi smiled awkwardly.

"Let's leave it at that and I'll just wash it, Second Aunt can sit down for a while." Shen Hui returned to her previous gentle and virtuous image.

Seeing her entering the kitchen as if nothing had happened, Zhou Laidi had a weird expression on her face, thinking that the two girls from the Shen family had more difficult temperaments than the other.

Shen Qing smiled suddenly, and then said affectionately: "Second aunt is sitting in the house, there are a few tea trees behind this old house, we both picked wild vegetables to fry when we had nothing to do, it's just that the craftsmanship is not good, the tea is not fragrant. Auntie don't mind."

She graciously let Zhou Laidi into the back room, and asked her sister to bring a small charcoal stove to boil water and make tea.

What she said earlier was half true and half false.

Behind the house, at the foot of the mountain, we did find several huge wild tea trees. Although it was wild tea, it was a famous brand. It was Guapian, her favorite tea in her previous life.

It's just that the new leaves have not emerged yet, so I can only pick the old leaves. I will practice the skill of frying tea first. When the new leaves are ready to be picked, I will make real Guapian tea, and then I will make a fortune from it.

She also plans to set aside an acre of land on the back slope for cutting tea trees, which will also be a big income in the future.

The longer she lives here, the more confident she is in the bet, Crescent Bay is a treasure!

Zhou Laidi doesn't know how to taste tea. In the past, at most, during the Chinese New Year, the family bought some rough tea from the tea dealer to entertain guests. Otherwise, who would spend money on these useless things.

She took a sip and shook her head, "It's not good, why not sprinkle some icing sugar, it's sweet and delicious."

The corner of Shen Qing's mouth twitched, and he decided to change the subject, "Second Aunt, how are dad and grandma?"

"Everything is fine!" Zhou Laidi looked around with her eyes busy.

"Then my father... when will he marry again? Has it been agreed?"

"Hey, it's not so easy to decide, hey, why are you asking this?" Zhou Laidi answered the first half of the sentence too quickly, and realized something was wrong later.

Shen Qing said in a nagging tone, "As a daughter, you should be concerned about it! According to your wishes, we said we would kiss you, but we didn't say it. The second aunt has something to say and I don't want to talk about it. I won't go back and talk about it. We all As small talk.”

Zhou Laidi is also a gossiper, if she has gossip, she will feel as uncomfortable in her heart as a dog scratching a cat.

She said excitedly: "Your grandma disagrees with your father. She took a fancy to it, but your father refused. After all, your father thought it was good, but your grandma didn't like this or that. Why don't you just stick to it, your father?" Running to the town every day these days, I heard people say..." She moved closer and lowered her voice, "I heard people say that your father is dating a widow in the town."

"This..." Shen Qing was extremely thankful that he didn't drink any water, otherwise he would have sprayed.

"I didn't believe it when I saw it, and I didn't believe it at first. With your father's current conditions, what kind of young daughter-in-law can't be said, how can you get involved with a widow, but do you know who they are talking about? "
