The beautiful stepmother from the 80s is loved by the whole family!

Chapter 46 To save face

"Mom, I saw some beautiful short flowers on the mountain. I'll dig them up for you next time."

When Jiang Qing came back, he saw his father shoveling back two buckets of mud from outside the house and putting them against the wall.

Later I found out that my mother was planting flowers and was building a flower bed, so she hurried into the house.

Su Mian was washing the snails while wondering, "Okay, but you can't just pick any. Mom wants good-looking ones, not the ugly ones."

"And we have to dig them up carefully, otherwise they won't survive, which would be a pity."

Nowadays, the flowers are relatively common, and many of them are grown wild in the mountains and then discovered, bred and sold.

There are many beautiful flowers on the mountain, on trees and shrubs, all wild. What if one of them is a beautiful one?

"And you have to dig deeper when you dig, and don't damage its roots too much, otherwise it won't survive."

"If you see it, you can call mom to come and have a look, and ask mom to take a shovel and dig it up, or you can ask mom if she wants to."

Jiang Qing nodded, already recalling it, and would dig it out next time.

Su Mian was drooling over the snails. This good thing was delicious and tasted amazing.

This is quite a lot. "Where did you go to touch it, my dear? Be careful when you go there. There are snakes in the summer, so don't go there too often."

"Be careful when you go out to play. Especially the two of you are not allowed to go swimming, not even near the river or the lake."

"And even if you see someone fall into the water, you can't go down to rescue them. Just shout for help and find a stick to pull them out. Don't go into the water."

A drowning person will hold on to anything he encounters, and rushing down to rescue him will only result in a loss of life.

They are still young and might rush over and try to pull someone back when they see them drowning, but it is not that easy.

We need to remind them more often and take more precautions against this matter.

Jiang Qing nodded and took note of it all. He still remembered his mother's words very clearly.

"Okay, I'll tell my brother later."

"My brother and I found this snail in the field ditch. There are also small fish and shrimps. Mom, do you like it? I will catch more next time."

"We went with the fat boys, fishing in the field ditches, and we used sticks to hit them beforehand to test the water."

"Don't worry, mom. We'll go get it for you next time."

Su Mian cleaned it twice, found the few apple snails inside and threw them away, then finally soaked it in half a bucket of water and placed it in the corner.

"Okay, just be safe. If you want to play, go and fish. If you don't want to play, don't go. We don't need this little food."

As he said this, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face, he was so greedy.

"We have to wait two days before we can eat this snail. We have to let it spit out the sand and mud in its mouth, and then we can eat it clean."

"When the time comes, just stir-fry it. It's spicy and goes really well with rice or porridge. It tastes really good."

"Anyway, mom likes to eat it, but you may not like it."

I started drooling as I talked about it. We have the fried snails, and we will arrange barbecue as well, as a midnight snack.

It is not difficult to quietly write down this little plan now. It can be said to be super simple.

There was nothing Jiang Qing didn't like to eat, and he started drooling as he listened to what his mother said.

Especially those with chili peppers, they are all fragrant, and they are cooked by my mother, so they are delicious no matter how.

"I love it. We all love what mom cooks."

The little eyes turned and thought of an important thing.

"Dad, what delicious food did you buy? Dad's cooking is also delicious, Mom, you try it." They became excited as they spoke, but Dad had just been helping Mom with the flower garden, so Mom must be happy.

Su Mian thought about what she saw when she accidentally went to the kitchen. Everything was piled up in the basket and she couldn't tell them apart.

"I don't know. Won't you know when your father cooks it?"

Actually, I was a little curious. He didn't say he needed help when I asked him just now, but I also noticed that he was a little embarrassed and he really wanted to save face.

It's funny just thinking about it.

Jiang Qing was happy to see her mother smile, especially when she mentioned her father, which made her even happier.

Jiang Ye, who was outside the house, came back and gave the things to his mother and then came out.

Watching my mother and brother chatting in the room, I asked in a low voice.

The little face was very serious and earnest, and it seemed that he had never smiled except when smiling at Su Mian. He was always expressionless and had no smile on his face.

"How's Dad?"

"It's okay, just wait and see." Jiang Zhe answered without any politeness. It was a good thing that he was young and didn't understand much about this matter.

But the big one can be seen, but it’s not a shameful thing, there’s nothing to be afraid of.

Just don't tell anyone!
Jiang Ye also thought it made sense. Mom should pay more attention to how Dad performs.

Mom is very good, Dad is also very good, that's it now... I feel like Mom can wait a little longer.

But right now it seems that the best thing is to have a dad and live with them, which is the best option.

They will also try their best to help their father. If their father can't do it, or if their mother really doesn't like it, they won't blame their mother.

As long as mom is happy.

Jiang Zhe was very happy in his heart. These two boys were still very useful. He immediately felt relieved.

It is because of these two brats that Mianmian is born. It seems that it was not in vain that she was raised.

"Where is there some good, fertile black soil? I'll go dig some and plant some flowers for your mother."

"Help me build a flower bed then, it will go faster."

He had just gone to the village to ask about bricks and ordered some, and also bought cement.

As for sand and stones, they are no big deal. We can just dig some from the river and get it done tomorrow.

Jiang Ye thought for a moment... "What kind is considered fertile?"

"Why don't you mix it with some urine? The ladies say it makes you fatter this way."

The small vegetable patch they planted would never grow big, but when my younger brother peed on it, it grew a lot bigger.

It turns out that what the ladies do makes sense.

Jiang Zhe was silent for a while, and looked at him. He was only ten years old, and it seemed normal that he didn't know.

The villagers do use urine to water their vegetables and crops, but...

Her eyes fell on him again, her tone was cold but true. "If you dare to pour it, your mother will be the first to beat you!"
