Border Cook

Chapter 184 He is guilty

Even so, Zhao Dahu and Zhao Erhu still took one each, and even filled their bowls with various foods from the spicy hotpot.

"How come you guys have become reincarnated starving ghosts just after your Aunt Xia and I went out for a few days?" Mrs. Lu curled her lips.

In theory, since I often eat delicious meals at Xia Mingyue's place, my vision and taste have improved a lot. I am no longer as greedy as before.

"It's not that I'm starving, it's just that I haven't eaten Aunt Xia's cooking for a few days, and I'm really craving for it." Zhao Erhu answered first.

He has been bullied by Zhao Dahu these past two days and he has learned his lesson.

"Didn't we leave a pot of braised pork for you before we left?" Xia Mingyue was a little surprised.

If I remember correctly, I heard the two brothers discussing how to eat the braised pork in the next few days.

The portion of braised pork was quite large, and it should be enough to eat.

"Don't mention it." Jiang Zhuguo was a little helpless. "Originally, the three of us have already discussed that we will eat half of this clay pot of braised pork as it is, and stew the other half with some dried beans, tofu, etc. This way, we can eat it for a few more days."

"When they had eaten one-third of the food that night, I put the pot in the kitchen and covered it with a lid. When I woke up the next morning, the lid was opened and the braised pork was gone. I guess it was eaten by a living creature. So for the remaining two days, they could only eat the food I cooked."

Zhao Erhu was very angry about the fact that the braised pork was eaten by a living creature. "I went to the street to buy two mousetraps and put them in the kitchen. If I catch this damn mouse, I will skin it and cut it into pieces!"

"Actually..." Zhao Dahu slowed down the speed of stuffing food into his mouth, and his neck shrank unconsciously. He whispered, "Not really."

"Why not!" Zhao Erhu gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes at Zhao Dahu, "You sympathize with the rats?"

"No no……"

Zhao Dahu lowered his head and continued to enjoy the spicy hot pot in his bowl, saying timidly, "Rats and the like are the most hateful!"

It's winter now, there shouldn't be thunder...

Right?

Zhao Dahu felt guilty and timid, but more than that he felt annoyed and self-blaming.

Why couldn't I control my hands and mouth at that time? Why did I become so greedy that I couldn't even wait until the next day and went to eat it secretly that very night?
And he just ate it secretly, and it was enough for him to eat one or two pieces, but he actually ate all the remaining braised pork...

He is guilty!
He would go to the street early tomorrow morning and buy some sesame candies to give to Aunt Jiang and Zhao Erhu as compensation.

Zhao Dahu's mind was filled with calculations.

The others continued to eat the spicy hotpot, with a look of secrecy on their faces.

Because the oden business was very good these days, Song, Zhou and others worked a little longer. After having dinner at Xia Mingyue's place, they went home.

Before leaving, Xia Mingyue asked several people to pack some spicy hotpot to take back as compensation for today's overtime work.

Song and others happily took some and went home.

After arriving home, Song saw that the courtyard door was ajar and candles were lit in the main room. When she walked in and saw Li Shuisheng sitting at the table in the main room, she smiled and asked, "Why are you back today?"

"It just so happens that Madam Xia made a new dish today, called spicy hotpot, and asked us to bring some back. You can try it tonight..."

Li Shuisheng, who had been keeping his head down, raised his head and looked at Song, his eyes reddened, "Liu Tiezhu went to the Luo family to see me this afternoon."

"Why did he come to see you?" Song was a little displeased.

Liu Tiezhu said that she didn't want to remarry not because of Shuisheng, but because she herself didn't want to remarry. So why would she go looking for Shuisheng again?

Does this matter have to be known to everyone? "He said that he and you, sister-in-law, have agreed that as long as I nod, the marriage can be settled." Li Shuisheng choked up, his eyes completely red, "Sister-in-law, didn't you say you don't agree with this marriage?"

"I don't agree with this marriage..." Song explained hurriedly.

"Then why did Liu Tiezhu say that you had already promised him?" Li Shuisheng suddenly raised his voice and asked loudly.

Song was stunned for a moment. Before she could say "Liu Tiezhu is talking nonsense", Li Shuisheng stood up and looked at Song steadily. "Sister-in-law, please don't marry Liu Tiezhu, okay?"

"I won't marry Liu Tiezhu..."

"Sister-in-law, will you marry me?"

What?
Song, who had been trying to explain and comfort Li Shuisheng, was shocked and froze in place. "What did you say?"

"Sister-in-law, will you marry me?" Li Shuisheng said, "I have grown up and can make money. I can support and take care of you in the future..."

"I'm your sister-in-law!" Song stopped her.

"I know!" Li Shuisheng said hoarsely, "But I like my sister-in-law and want to take care of her. There are sisters-in-law who marry their brothers-in-law. You can marry me, too!"

Song was stunned again.

Indeed, after the death of his brother, it is not uncommon for the sister-in-law to marry his younger brother-in-law for various reasons.

And because of the constant wars in previous years, this kind of situation even happens from time to time.

In the words of outsiders, we are all family and live together. It's nothing more than changing the person next to your pillow. It's the same whether you are a man or a woman. There's nothing wrong with it.

So when Song was a widow, someone suggested that she marry Li Shuisheng directly.

However, the Song family could not accept...

She is Li Shuisheng's sister-in-law and has always treated him as her own brother rather than her husband.

"If you are afraid of what others may say, then wait for me to save money for two years, and then we can settle down somewhere else. Then others will no longer know about our relationship. What do you think?"

Seeing that Song still didn't say anything, Li Shuisheng simply knelt on the ground and said, "I beg you, sister-in-law, don't marry anyone else, just marry me, okay?"

Song came back to her senses and looked at Li Shuisheng, whose face was full of sincerity, her face turned pale.

"Sister-in-law..." Li Shuisheng reached out to grab Song's hand.

But just as she touched Song's fingers, she suddenly screamed and dodged.

After standing there in a daze for a moment, Song walked out.

"Sister-in-law!" Li Shuisheng hurriedly got up and chased after her.

Noticing all this, Song became more and more panicked and her steps became faster. After leaving the house, she ran all the way out.

"Sister-in-law..." Li Shuisheng chased after her, but stopped when he saw that Song had already run out of the alley and onto the street.

Did you scare your sister-in-law?
But it didn't seem like he had done anything wrong.

Isn't it common for a sister-in-law to remarry her brother-in-law...
