Return to the era: starting from the state-owned hotel

Chapter 262 Stir-fried frog meat
Su Honggen's thoughts were confused for a moment. When his eyes touched Deng Dandan, his expression straightened and returned to his original silent and fierce look.

Seeing him looking like this dead again, Deng Dandan felt depressed and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

always like this!

Although she despises Song Honggen, she despises him for always having a muscular head, despises him for being dull and stupid, not knowing how to coax people, and despising him for his mud-legged background and lack of high cultural and educational attainments.

But this doesn't mean that she can endure Song Honggen ignoring herself.

Why did Su Honggen ignore him?
She, Deng Dandan, was an educated youth from the city with a high school degree. She was able to marry into the brigade captain's family. He should be grateful to Su Honggen for marrying him.

But now it seems...Su Honggen's reaction seems to have always been indifferent.

It was completely different from what Deng Dandan had imagined.

Deng Dandan couldn't help shouting, "Su Honggen!"

Su Honggen turned his head and looked at Deng Dandan.

But when he really looked over, Deng Dandan opened his mouth and murmured, but he couldn't say anything.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Su Honggen didn't say anything, so he picked up the bucket full of forest frogs and looked at Su Qingfeng, "I'll take it back for you."

There was a domineering tone in his words that could not be rejected.

Su Qingfeng saw that this man was serious, thought for a while, and nodded, "That's okay, then you come to my house for dinner tonight and try the forest frog I made."

Su Honggen paused as he walked, seemingly hesitant, but after just a moment, he nodded heavily.

It's not that he lacks determination, it's just... Su Qingfeng gave him too much.

He had also had a banquet made by Su Qingfeng in the village before.

To be honest...compared with the dishes cooked by Su Qingfeng, the dishes cooked by my wife are like an old woman's footcloth. There is no comparison at all.

When he returned home, he accidentally said these words, and he was so angry that he even ate cornbread for a month until his eye sockets were sunken.

When he thought of this, Su Honggen's expression became slightly heavy.

Ugh.

What a painful memory.

Sure enough, you can't talk nonsense.

Even at home.

Behind.

Deng Dandan watched as Su Honggen carried the bucket of forest frogs and followed Su Qingfeng and Li Jing away.

gone……

Just gone? !

Deng Dandan’s head was about to be scratched.

She felt that she might not be as important as Su Qingfeng in Su Honggen's heart.

At least they are still the same family and have an inseparable relationship.

And what about her?
I don’t even have a marriage certificate yet!
……

the other side.

Su Qingfeng walked for a while, then suddenly stopped, looked at Li Jing, and asked in surprise, "Why did you follow me here?"

Li Jing was startled at first, and then winked wildly. He squeezed Su Qingfeng's shoulders, gritted his teeth and said, "Su Qingfeng, think carefully before speaking. After all... I am also your brother-in-law."

Before Su Qingfeng said anything, Li Ran smiled at the side and spoke sharply, "Li Jing, what did you say?"

Li Jing shut up.

Keep your mouth shut.

not talking anymore.

Su Qingfeng immediately became angry.

Su Honggen stood behind them and couldn't help but feel envious when he saw the three of them seeming to be noisy and scolding, but actually laughing and playing.

He also has brothers at home, and he is the youngest son. Logically speaking, he should be favored.

But in fact, because of Su Honggen's character and his fierce and dull appearance, although he did not have a bad relationship with his brothers at home, he could only speak lightly.

Not to mention, after the older brothers got married, started families, and had wives, they began to worry about their own small families. They didn't think as much about the younger brothers as they did before.

The relationship, which was not a close one to begin with, became even weaker over time.

On the contrary, Li Jing, the brother-in-law, became more affectionate with Su Qingfeng than his biological brothers.

Su Honggen raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

At this moment, Su Qingfeng in front suddenly turned around and said, "Honggen, can you eat spicy food?"

Su Honggen subconsciously raised his voice, "Yes!"

……

It's almost dark.

At this time, people in the village came down from the mountain one after another.

It's not that I don't want to catch more forest frogs, but this mountain is completely dark at night. Who knows what wild animals will pop up in the forest. If you encounter a big insect coming down the mountain and accidentally hurt someone, even if you catch a forest frog, you will be punished. Even if all the money is spent, the injury may not be cured.

While walking on the road, Su Qingfeng was sometimes inevitably dazzled by the light of the flashlight.

When the villagers saw Su Qingfeng, they who were still a little tired suddenly burst into enthusiasm.

"Qingfeng is back! This child is so filial. Even though he lives in the county, he has not forgotten his roots. From time to time, he returns to the village to visit his parents."

Someone nearby heard this and immediately agreed, "Isn't that right? When Qingfeng was young, I said that this child is not only smart, but also values ​​​​love and justice..."

Listening to these kind words, Su Qingfeng faced them with a smile and declined from time to time.

Li Ran raised his head and looked at his expression, a little surprised.

It turns out that Su Qingfeng's face... is so thick...

Li Jing and Su Honggen suffered. They didn't eat much during the day, and now they were so hungry that they finally managed to have a meal with Su Qingfeng, but they encountered so many obstacles on the way.

So, while the person in front was talking, he felt a faint gaze lingering on him.

Should I say it or not, that look... was quite scary.

When he raised his head and took a closer look, he discovered that the source of one of his glances was actually the murderous Su Honggen!
I think back then, when he was sent to the police station for fighting, it was considered a big deal when word spread to the village.

At that time, for a month, the face of the captain of Sujiacun was darker than the ashes from a pot.

Even in the neighboring brigades, there are rumors spreading widely.It's just that Su Qingfeng didn't pay attention at the time.

Thinking of this, the person who originally wanted to chat with Su Qingfeng and have a good relationship with Su Qingfeng winced, laughed, and couldn't help but walk away.

Su Qingfeng suddenly felt peaceful.

Li Jing couldn't help but glance sideways and glanced at Su Honggen, obviously not expecting that he could have such a wonderful use.

Only Su Honggen, who had long been accustomed to such treatment, held the bucket and remained silent.

Li Jing wanted to comfort him, but seeing him like this, he felt that Su Honggen didn't need the so-called comfort at all.

Instead of comforting him now, it would be better to give him a few more forest frogs later.

Thinking about it, a group of people came to the old house.

Every time Su Qingfeng returned to Sujia Village, the old Su family would gather together lively in the old house and have a good meal.

No, even if everyone was catching forest frogs on the mountain before, when Su Qingfeng came to the small courtyard of the old house and the fence, there were people inside.

Su Qingfeng felt happy when she saw the little old lady and the old man, with their faces rosy and energetic.

Just seeing the oilcloth in the old lady's hand, he suddenly became anxious, "Hey! I'm going to cook today! If it doesn't work, you can just watch from the side. How can anyone at your age still cook by yourself?"

The old lady looked at the oilcloth in her hand and hummed, "Yes, I am already a long time old and my cooking is not good... That's right. You are not willing to eat the food I cook. That's right..."

After saying this, everyone's skin became tense.

Who dares to dislike the little old lady?

Even if the family is separated, she is still the queen of the old Su family. It can be said that she is the anchor of the old Su family in daily trivial life.

Sometimes, Mr. Su is not as capable as his wife.

Su Qingfeng spoke without hesitation, "Nai, what are you talking about! It's obviously my father who dislikes your cooking, but I have never been like this."

Su Siwei was drinking water. After hearing this, he held a mouthful of water in his mouth. It was so hard that he almost spit it out.

Damn it!
This bastard really gets more and more deceitful as he grows older.

The little old lady looked at Su Siwei's face turning red due to anxiety, her expression suddenly relaxed, and she laughed out loud.

She put the oilcloth back in place and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, you are so old, you are almost holding a grandson, and you are still blushing. I am not as good at cooking as Qingfeng, but he can also cook. Old Four, you should take advantage of this time to pile up the firewood in the yard."

As soon as these words came out, Li Ran, who had been silent, had a faint blush on his face, but his eyes when he looked at Su Qingfeng were indeed shining.

For some reason, Su Qingfeng always felt a little stressed even though he didn't meet Li Ran's eyes.

Before he could think about it, he took Su Honggen into the kitchen.

Although Su Honggen didn't like to talk, he still knew how to deal with basic human relations. He called out to a few elders when he saw them.

The old lady was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on her face, "Honggen is here, sit somewhere, and I'll make you a cup of sugar water."

Su Honggen wanted to refuse, but the next second, the old lady turned around and entered the kitchen, neatly made a cup of sugar water, and put the enamel cup in Su Honggen's hand. This series of actions made it impossible to refuse.

The warm sugar water warmed his hands that were frozen due to the cold wind, and at the same time, it also warmed his dusty heart.

While Su Qingfeng was making stir-fried forest frogs, Su Honggen sat in front of the stove, looking at the fire inside, and was silent for a long time. Just when Su Qingfeng thought that he would remain silent like this until it was time to eat, Su Honggen suddenly spoke Speak.

"You...Brother Qingfeng, has your family always been like this?"

Su Qingfeng was still immersed in the atmosphere of cooking when she heard his somewhat deep and hoarse voice and had not recovered yet, "Our home? What is it like? Is there anything special about our home? By the way, your voice is so bad It's a bit dumb, can it really be spicy? Don't be brave, at worst I can put less chili pepper, it will still be delicious."

Su Honggen: "..."

He was a little helpless. Su Qingfeng's focus seemed a bit strange.

He took advantage of the situation and added, "I can eat spicy food. My throat...has always been like this."

Regarding this topic, he seemed not to want to say more, but continued to struggle with his previous doubts, "I always feel that the atmosphere in your home, Brother Qingfeng, seems to be different."

Su Qingfeng glanced at him with a smile, "What's the difference? If you live a good life, have a full stomach, and have money in your pocket, this person... is naturally different. My family used to always Because some people care about food, but can you say that my father and several uncles are not brothers? "

"After all, aren't we all just poor? If there is no shortage of food, who would be willing to argue all day long over a few grains of rice and a woofo? Even if I'm not bothered by it, everyone is bothered by it. Just like now, everyone is separated and life is slowly getting better, so the atmosphere at home is naturally better than before."

This is indeed true.

Su Honggen took these words into his heart.

He himself is not a person who talks much, so to be able to ask what he just said is already a very unusual move for him.

But when he was deep in thought, he didn't know what he thought of. He secretly looked up at Su Qingfeng several times and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

After finally waiting for the last plate of oily Chinese cabbage to be fried, Su Honggen took the plate of vegetarian dishes in a hurry and brought it to the square table in the main room.

It's not that he has no determination.

It's really... so fragrant!

At this time, Su Honggen looked at Su Qingfeng, his eyes were so bright that she wanted to stick to him.

He suddenly envied Li Ran...

Li Ran was setting out the dishes and chopsticks in the main room, while the eldest aunt and the second aunt were not idle. Bai Jing, because of her poor health, sat in the back room peeling walnuts.

The old lady walked around, and when she saw her like this, she couldn't help but sigh, "These walnuts are a waste of time. Even if the breeze is here, no one will say anything if you don't work. You are ruining your own hands. When the time comes, Don’t let the fourth child complain about me again!”

Bai Jing felt heartbroken after hearing this.

After so many years, she had already figured out the little old lady's sharp-tongued and mean-spirited character.

After experiencing such hard times for so long, it can even be said that the little old lady and she are no different from mother and daughter.

Bai Jing just smiled and said "Hey" and didn't say anything else.

The old lady had no choice but to hold her hand and walked out, "Okay, okay, the dishes are done. Qingfeng is cooking today. You, a mother-in-law, should eat more."

Speaking of which, Su Qingfeng's marriage only lasted a month or two, but for the people of the old Su family, it felt like every day was like a year.

There was no other way. If he was used to eating Su Qingfeng's cooking, eating the old lady's cooking was simply a painful torture.

This situation, to put it mildly, is called, it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

But according to the old lady's words, a group of people owe something.

In the past, it was good to eat some. At that time, when I saw an egg custard on the table, I wished my eyes would turn green.

As a result, people are still picky about a plate of fried eggs and shallots.

The old lady was still complaining in her heart. When she walked out, she saw that at some point, the table was almost full of people.

Everyone sat in a row, waiting for her and Bai Jing.

　I was so sleepy that I fell asleep all the time when I got home from class. My head hurt all the time and my eyes almost closed when I was writing. But it was good. I hadn’t felt sleepy at night without taking medicine for a long time.I took the opportunity to go to bed.Goodnight everybody.
