Sunshine starting line

Chapter 37 Why is the monkey always being tricked?
As soon as Zhou Jing finished speaking, everyone present fell silent, and the atmosphere was once awkward.

Just when the surrounding air was about to condense, Huanhuan suddenly regained his strength, and then opened his mouth, and said whiningly: "Oh--it's so sour--I'm so sour--"

Seeing this, Gao Xiaojuan was busy patting Huanhuan's back again: "It's okay, it's okay, it's fine if you know it's sore, don't be jealous next time."

Lele looked at Huanhuan's appearance, pouted her mouth, and muttered in a low voice: "Vinegar is not for drinking, but for dipping dumplings. It's delicious with dumplings!"

Just when Zhou Jing felt that the embarrassment was slightly relieved, Gao Xiaojuan suddenly said again: "Lele, we southerners don't have the habit of dipping dumplings in vinegar! How do you eat dumplings dipped in raw vinegar? It's so sour!"

Gao Xiaoli frowned as she spoke, as if she was suddenly soured by vinegar, and she seemed to be disgusted.

Sheng Yang obviously saw the change in Zhou Jing's face, and quickly smoothed things over: "Grandma, dumplings are northern pasta, and northerners eat dumplings dipped in vinegar is the most authentic way of eating them, as long as Lele likes them, why bother so much?"

Before Sheng Yang finished speaking, Huang Yunshan coughed suddenly, as if he wanted to interrupt something deliberately.

After Sheng Yang stopped talking, Huang Jiaming looked at Lele, and then said to Gao Xiaojuan: "Mom, since Lele likes it, let her do it, don't worry too much about it."

Gao Xiaojuan's complexion changed again and again, and then she showed an embarrassed smile: "Forget it. Although we southerners are not used to this, grandma is a northerner. We must accommodate as much as we can."

It stands to reason that it's just a plate of vinegar, so why do you care so much?As for making it so serious?Of course not!

But why did it happen like this?This is inseparable from the fact that Huang Jiaming is from the south and Sheng Yang is from the north.According to normal geographical common sense, Shengyang is not a northerner, but in the middle of the country.But in the eyes of Huang Yunshan and Gao Xiaojuan, apart from Shencheng, the rest of China is all "northern".

Therefore, since Sheng Yang and Huang Jiaming got married, they have tried their best to protect the "local culture" from the invasion of "foreign culture".This involves many aspects, such as clothing, language, diet, customs and so on.It can be said that this defensive psychology is all-round, multi-layered, and pervasive.

Therefore, even today's innocent dumpling vinegar was not spared

Zhou Jing felt very uncomfortable after hearing Gao Xiaojuan's "accommodate". She stared at the butterfly vinegar in front of Lele for a while before she put down her chopsticks: "Actually, we don't have the habit of dipping dumplings in vinegar in Sichuan. At most, it’s dipped in chili. Lele fell in love with dipped in vinegar, purely because she watched TV and followed suit, what’s wrong with that?”

Gao Xiaojuan seemed to hear the displeasure in Zhou Jing's tone, and was suddenly taken aback.

Huang Yunshan coughed again, and then said: "Forget it, let's eat dumplings and eat dumplings."

After all, in front of so many outsiders, if the two parents' family had an unpleasant quarrel, wouldn't that be an excuse for others?

Following Huang Yunshan's order, everyone began to cooperate:
"Oh, sister Juan made this big gold ingot, right? Look, it's full. It's delicious. I want to eat this!"

"We southerners make dumplings that look like gold ingots, good luck!"

Immediately afterwards, everyone began to look for "golden ingots" in the dumpling pile, and Gao Xiaojuan's carefully wrapped crescent moon dumplings were lying on the plate one by one. The puffy illusion.

So she started busy eating the "Crescent Moon" dumplings made by Zhou Jing, and used this method to relieve her sense of loss.

After the meal, after Sheng Yang and Gao Xiaojuan helped with the housework, Gao Xiaojuan left.

Even though Zhou Jing kept smiling, Sheng Yang could tell that she was feeling very uncomfortable, so he followed Zhou Jing to room 1602 soon.

Zhou Jing seemed to have guessed that Sheng Yang would come. As soon as Sheng Yang entered the door, she pointed to the small sofa opposite her and said, "Come on, sit here."

Sheng Yang paused, then walked to Zhou Jing and sat down.

As soon as she sat down, Zhou Jing asked, "What do you think about what happened tonight?"

Sheng Yang was silent for a few seconds before asking: "Mom, what's going on tonight?"

"All." Zhou Jing smiled, "All the disgusting things."

Sheng Yang paused for another half a second before saying: "Today they said that the dish was vinegary, it's really a little bit"

Sheng Yang, who has always been good at speaking, couldn't find the right words to describe him.

Zhou Jing quickly added: "Use the topic to play."

Sheng Yang didn't make a sound, but she felt that Zhou Jing's "excuse the topic" was very appropriate.

Seeing that Sheng Yang didn't speak, Zhou Jing said again: "Sheng Yang, I don't know if you're pretending not to understand, or if you really don't understand. Do you know why your in-laws have this 'dumpling banquet' today? They did it on purpose. It was done for us to see, and it deliberately united a large group of people to deal with us."

Before Zhou Jing finished speaking, Sheng Yang said: "Mom, can you stop having so many negative emotions? Today is not a 'dumpling banquet', but the winter solstice. In the south, 'winter solstice celebrates the New Year', that is, They regard the winter solstice as more important than the New Year's Eve."

After Zhou Jing heard this, she laughed again, full of helplessness in her smile: "Shengyang, Shengyang, I think you are really stupid! Why is the winter solstice a big Chinese New Year? That's their excuse. Even if the winter solstice is really a big Chinese New Year, it's really Do you want to recruit a large group of dancers to deal with us?"

When Zhou Jing said this, Sheng Yang couldn't say a single word that he wanted to say.

She suddenly thought that in the early days of her and Huang Jiaming's marriage, Huang Yunshan and Zhou Jing also joined a large group of relatives and friends to eat at home, and their words were full of thorns.She felt uncomfortable at the time, but she didn't think much about it, she just thought it was their way of life and language habits.But now, hearing Zhou Jing's reminder suddenly, she suddenly felt that everything was really not that simple.

Zhou Jing could see Sheng Yang's emotions.

Seeing that Sheng Yang was silent, she sighed lightly: "Sheng Yang, I understand now that your conditions are good in all aspects, but your life is not good."

"Mom, can you stay off the line?"

"I'm not going online." Zhou Jing's tone suddenly became extremely calm, almost indifferently calm, "I'm here to help you analyze carefully. If I don't help you recognize the reality, you will never be able to recognize the reality. Living in the chaos, I will always be treated like a monkey by people."

Sheng Yang was almost laughed angrily by Zhou Jing: "Why am I being treated like a monkey? Am I so mentally handicapped?"

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Jing said a "thought-provoking" sentence, still using her almost indifferent calm tone: "Are monkeys mentally retarded? Monkeys are so smart! But why are they being played by people? Because they are not in a good situation." Well, they don’t have more resources than humans.”

After hearing this, Sheng Yang was completely speechless.
