Chapter 159 Ancient Books
It was almost twelve o'clock, and Grandma Su came back.

As soon as I got home, I smelled the fragrance.

"Have you prepared dinner?"

Su Xiaoruan said proudly: "Grandma, guess what I did today?"

Grandma Su raised her eyebrows, how could she have guessed that!

But the good granddaughter asked, it must be delicious.

"Is there meat?"

Grandma Su moved her nose and smelled a very obvious smell of meat.

Su Xiaoruan proudly said: "Yeah. My cooking skills are not as good as my mother and Yingzi's sister, so I made dishes that save trouble."

Grandma Su's eyes moved, and when she heard a noise outside, she and Su Xiaoruan went to the kitchen to prepare the dishes.

Eat is still in the yard, cool.

Su Xiaoruan had already lit two plates of mosquito coils on the ground, and the table had already been put away.

"Hey, why is this a pot of rice soup? Ruanbao, let's eat this at noon? But why doesn't it smell like me?"

Su Xiangbei was the most impatient person. He didn't see any meat when he came over after washing his hands. He saw a pot of rice soup first, so he naturally had to ask a few more questions.

"Isn't this coming!"

After Zhao Hongmei washed her hands, she went to the kitchen, and brought out a large bowl of rice.

The color of the rice looks a bit like it has been mixed with soy sauce, but it smells really good.

"what is this?"

Su Xiaoruan smiled and said: "This is vegetable rice. Try my cooking."

After Grandma Su sat down, Zhao Hongmei served the old lady a bowl first, followed by Su Jianye.

Su Xiangbei held a large bowl of rice, first looked at it, then smelled it, and said intoxicated, "Ruanbao's craftsmanship is definitely not bad. I smell it delicious!"

Su Xiaoruan would flatter him if he gave him a glare.

Su Jianye took a big mouthful, but felt that the aroma in his mouth was indescribable.

too delicious!

The rice is only slightly tainted with the salty flavor of the side dishes, and it doesn’t feel too salty at all as a staple food. The taste is quite good when you eat only rice without side dishes.

After fully absorbing the aroma of lard, the diced radish tasted like meat, and Su Xiaoruan ate two pieces in a row.

Grandma Su likes the potato cubes here. They are very soft and sticky, and the stew is also full of flavor, which is very fragrant.

Su Jianye ate two big bowls, each of the three young men ate three bowls, and Su Xiaoruan made two bowls of vegetables and rice, and there was not a single bit left.

Su Xiaoruan had a small appetite and didn't do any physical work, so he only ate one bowl, and then drank another bowl of half-warmed rice soup.

"Wow, cool! It's the first time I know that I can do this. Ruanbao, how did you come up with it?"

Su Xiaoruan lifted his chin, and squeezed his nostrils: "Huh!"

Seeing her small appearance, everyone laughed.

After lunch, everyone went back to the house to take a nap, and Grandma Su called Su Jianye under the gate to talk.

The two held a cattail fan in one hand, and a large tea mug was placed at their feet.

"Xiangnan and Xiangbei will graduate next year, what do you plan to do?"

Su Jianye was a little surprised, it was still early after all.

"Mother, isn't it a bit early?"

Grandma Su glared at him: "Have you forgotten the embarrassment that happened to Xiangdong back then? Your elder brother also said last time that if the two of them want to serve as soldiers, he can find a way. After all, in terms of appearance, they Both are fine."

Su Jianye nodded, and he agreed to be a soldier.

"Let's talk about it during the Chinese New Year, and see if these two children have any ideas at that time."

Grandma Su thinks it sounds like a sentence.

"Being a soldier is of course the best. Children from other people's families may not be able to get this spot if they want to be a soldier. Besides, our family has your elder brother at the top, so we can take care of it."

Su Jianye also understood this.

It would be an absolute honor to be a soldier these days, and it would lighten the burden on the family, and I heard that the allowance for being a soldier is quite a lot now.

Otherwise, the Huo family can obviously live a better life than before relying on Huo Yunting's allowance alone?

"When you are free, talk to your two children more. I am old and I don't understand many things. If there is anything you don't understand, you can discuss it with Ruanbao more."

Su Jianye also felt that he could discuss it with his daughter. His daughter is a lucky star, not only lucky, but also has fairy magic.

"Now I'm not going to take college entrance exams anymore. There's nothing I can do about it. Otherwise, the grades of these children are not bad, and our family will definitely get better and better."

"If you can't take the exam, don't take the exam. We can think of other ways out, and we still have to live this life."

Grandma Su was really scared by what happened to Su Xiangdong back then, so she thought about planning for her two grandchildren early.

If he went to serve as a soldier, then the family would not need to worry about it any more.

But if you don't want to be a soldier and just want to stay at home and live a good life, then you have to find a way to find a job.

Don't look at Grandma Su's age, but she has a high spirit.

Why can other people eat commercial food, but his Su family's children can't?
Now that two of her children are regular workers, she must be able to find a way to make her two grandchildren also have jobs, instead of just digging in the dirt like them.

After a while, Su Xiaoruan was reading at home when Xiaoshui came.

"You came alone? What about them?"

"Doing homework at home. Auntie, here is this for you."

Su Xiaoruan took it over and saw that it was a book.

Su Xiaoruan's heart tightened, and she quickly looked through it carefully again, and it turned out to be an ancient book.

"Where did this come from?"

Xiao Shui was taken aback by her appearance, and quickly said, "Yes, it was given by that grandpa Ji, who said it was thanks for your life-saving grace."

Su Xiaoruan breathed a sigh of relief.

If it was him, it would be considered normal to be able to take out such a thing.

This thing must have a history of two or three hundred years at first glance, and it is impossible for ordinary people to have such a thing.

"Why do you want other people's things casually?"

"Grandpa Ji told me to bring it to you, oh, and wrote you a note."

Xiao Shui pointed to the book, which meant that there was a note in it.

Su Xiaoruan opened the book, and sure enough, she saw a very small note.

"Ruanbao, there is no way to repay your life-saving grace. This book has been treasured by me for many years, and I give it as a special gift. I hope you can concentrate on your studies, use your dreams as horses, hire the world, take your feathers as your clothes, and live in a sycamore tree."

After Su Xiaoruan finished reading it, she knew that she must accept this book.

Forget it, since the old man is sincere, she will stop being hypocritical.

"Xiao Shui, no one will see you when you go to the cowshed?"

"No. And I brought this book in my arms, so don't worry, little aunt."

Su Xiaoruan nodded, "Okay, here, take it back and eat it with your younger siblings."

Su Xiaoruan grabbed a handful of glutinous rice sticks for him.

Xiao Shui accepted it with a smile: "By the way, I saw Song Zhiqing and Sun Qingsong on the way here. They seem to have gone to the grove outside the village."
