Reborn 1980: Good Wife Gets Rich and Busy

Chapter 497
The sky was getting slightly brighter, and Father Xue and Mother Xue woke up.

Unable to sleep, they simply got up, poured hot water after washing, and sat in the living room chatting while looking at the river view outside the window.

"Hey! In this cold weather, there are still people fishing!"

"Yes, it doesn't snow much here. The river doesn't freeze, so you can fish naturally. Not to mention, the fish in cold weather is actually delicious."

Mother Xue stared at him funny and asked, "Do you understand this?"

"Of course I understand." Dad Xue replied with a smile: "Freshwater fish are more delicious in winter, and the meat is firmer. In winter, food in the water is hard to find, and the fish are thinner, and leaner fish tastes better."

"Really? Isn't it said that fish fat is more delicious?" Mother Xue didn't believe it at all.

Xue's father replied: "Really, I didn't lie to you! Don't you think about it, do you choose the fatter pork to eat? Do you? Of course you buy the thinner ones!"

Mother Xue thought for a while, and her intuition seemed to make sense.

"Then we have to find some to eat."

"What's so difficult about this!" Father Xue said: "Ahu told me last night that he is free these days and plans to have a barbecue every night. Let's go over tonight to eat his best grilled fish. Mu Hai He also said that his godson is very good at grilling fish and it tastes very good."

"Hey! You have to give it a try." Mother Xue squinted at the sparkling river surface and whispered: "Look, the water quality here is so good! There are so many grasses around - they are all still green. A place like this can raise The fish that comes out will definitely be delicious.”

Father Xue couldn't help laughing and whispered: "Don't get fat again after just one trip. After who went back last time, he was so loud that his clothes were full. Don't be too fat, you have to pay attention to losing weight."

"Fuck you!" Xue's mother laughed and scolded: "I'm fat, so you don't want me anymore?! I'll show you how fat I am! Let's see if you dare to let me go!"

"Don't dare, don't dare." Xue's father chuckled: "The fatter the pig, the more valuable it is. I have raised you for so many years, and finally gained a little bit of face. Your sister-in-law always said that we are too busy. , you are so tired every day that you look unattractive, and you are so thin that it makes them feel distressed."

Mother Xue's face darkened, "If she really cared about me, she wouldn't have stopped running to our factory every two days. I've been married for so many years, and my parents have raised me even shorter than you. , why should she——"

"Okay, okay!" Xue's father interrupted her and whispered: "It's not that we can't survive now, so we can help if we can. I used to be poor, and if I wanted to give a few more yuan, I had to consider whether the family's money was enough. . Now that life is getting better, the difference is not less than a few hundred yuan, and they give a little when they ask. Everyone is happy with each other, which is good."

"I'm not happy!" Mother Xue said solemnly: "You can be considered worthy of my parents. When they were old, we took care of them and paid for them. Even for funerals, we spent more. My sister-in-law's family is ordinary. If something happens, they will reach out to you and ask for money - the question is, is their family short of money? Everyone can make money, and everyone has a salary. This happens year after year, how can you be so generous! People are like this Seeing how honest you are, I’m trying to find ways to make money from you! It makes me upset just looking at you!”

"Okay, okay." Xue's father said warmly: "They are all small things. Problems that can be solved with money are not big problems. Now that our economy is better, everything is fine as long as it doesn't hurt our feelings."

Mother Xue sighed and whispered: "You can't always indulge in the human heart. I know you are doing it for me, but... I can be happy if you don't do this."

"I know." Dad Xue patted the back of her hand and said warmly: "This time we are here to celebrate the New Year. There is no one at home and no one in the factory. Even if they want to ask me for money, they have no chance. ! When we go back, the new year has passed, what excuse do they have to ask for money? Didn’t they avoid it this time? "

Mother Xue nodded and said: "If something happens to them, we will naturally not stand by and watch. We don't have to worry about them at other times. Don't make excuses to dig for money all day long."

Their money was earned through hard work by the couple, not by stealing.

Why do they have so much money? Even if her parents' family celebrates a small festival, she still has to pay for them to buy food for them.

People, if you don't know yourself, sooner or later you will be disliked by others, whether it is the person you are closest to or not.

Father Xue just smiled and didn't take it seriously.When he was at his lowest, her family never really disliked him, allowing her to finally wait for him to marry her. This alone was enough for him to be grateful for the rest of his life.

His father-in-law and mother-in-law are gone, but their son, granddaughter and grandson are here, so he can do as much as he can.

At this time, a low voice sounded outside the door: "Begonia, are you awake? I seem to hear you talking."

Mother Xue hurriedly walked over and opened the door - she saw Cheng Muhai holding a big pot in his hand, wearing a coat and a hat. He said with a smile: "I went out to buy stone-ground soy milk. Come and drink it while it's hot."

"Hey! Stone ground soy milk?" Xue's father jumped up suddenly, "It seems that I haven't drank soy milk for a long time! It smells so good!"

Cheng Muhai shouted: "Hurry! Come over and eat!"

Mother Xue explained with a smile: "Since we moved to a garment factory, we have basically eaten three meals a day with the workers. We eat whatever is cooked in the canteen. His stomach is normal, so I always let him eat porridge in the morning."

Liu Ying put the dishes and chopsticks and smiled and said: "How can there be so much soy milk in the big dining hall? I made barbecued pork buns yesterday afternoon. Ling Ling usually likes to eat them the most. They have been steamed, let's eat Steamed buns with soy milk, okay?"

"Of course!" Dad Xue said with a smile, "It's a perfect match!"

Some people helped with the steamed buns, while others helped with spooning the soy milk, and soon the four of them gathered around the table to eat.

Liu Ying laughed and said: "We are talking so loudly, but we haven't woken up yet. I was really tired from playing yesterday. I slept very deeply last night. I didn't even have to get up to drink water in the middle of the night. I'm still asleep now."

Cheng Muhai explained: "Ahu is free these days, and he takes us out to play from time to time. That boy really hates his uncle."

"That's great!" Mother Xue said with a smile: "Comrade Ahu, the first time I met him, I thought this kid was bold and generous. From the look of his face, he was a decent person! To have such a good son - what a good vision. !”

Cheng Muhai and Liu Ying both laughed.

Father Xue couldn't help but ask: "By the way, where's A Fang? Why didn't you see her? Why is the school so late and not on vacation yet?"

"She went to the South Island to visit the water conservancy project." Liu Ying explained: "It is an event organized by the school. It is said that it is difficult to buy tickets at the end of the year. If you can't buy it, you may not be able to come back until after the New Year."

"It's an activity organized by the school, so there's no need to worry." Xue's father said warmly, "It will definitely be safer if teachers and classmates are following us."

Xue's mother echoed: "It's great to go out for a walk while you're young! There are railways everywhere now, so it's convenient to go anywhere. It's not like we could go anywhere with 100% two legs." ?”

Cheng Muhai sighed lowly and lowered his voice: "I thought this girl was gone. Now that she can go back to the right path and start a new life, we are very happy in our hearts. As long as she is willing to study hard, be a good person, and be a useful person. We will support everyone.”

"Humans, there will always be times when we take detours and take the wrong path." Father Xue whispered: "It's good if you can get back on the right path."

All four of them laughed softly.

At this time, a soft voice came from the room: "Grandma! Grandpa~"
