Stepmother

    Sister Duan raised her finger and said, "Zhao Di fell asleep on the chair in the room. If you don't believe me, see for yourself."

    Zhou Shufen turned her head and met a pair of eyes.

    Sister Duan was startled: "What are you doing? Xiao Zhou."

    "I saw someone." Zhou Shufen wanted to point it out to her, but when she realized it was impolite, she whispered, "Sister-in-law, look west."

    Sister Duan turned her head to look over and saw a back, a little familiar and a little puzzled: "Headmaster Shen's lover?"

    "It's her." Seeing her entering the room, Zhou Shufen patted her chest, "scare me like a ghost." Pause, "Xiao Song said that I walked silently and followed a ghost. It's like, you should wake her up and tell her to see who looks like a ghost."

    Zhong Jianguo frowned slightly: "Don't call her, Zhao Di is very sleepy."

    "I'll just talk about it." Zhou Shufen was quite speechless, "Look, I'm in a hurry, people who don't know think I'm going to kill your daughter-in-law."

    Sister Duan waved her fan: "Xiao Zhou, don't say a word, don't really wake Xiao Song."

    "Got it, sister-in-law." The Ma family often cooks until seven o'clock. Zhou Shufen looked at her watch and saw that it was still early, so she moved a chair and sat beside Mrs. Duan. When I was moving the chair, I also saw Song Zhaodi sleeping in the room, and asked in a low voice, "Where did you just say? Sister-in-law."

    Sister Duan glanced at her and was surprised: "Aren't you going back?"

    "It's still early." Zhou Shufen pointed to the sun in the west, "By the way, I just said that Headmaster Shen's lover, what does she see?"

    Sister Duan raised her eyebrows, a little surprised: "You ask."

    Zhou Shufen shook her head: "I haven't spoken to her, I dare not go."

    "What's wrong with that, she can't eat you." Sister Duan said.

    Zhou Shufen: "I don't feel like I'm the same kind of person, I can't talk about it. Forget it, don't ask." Seeing Zhong Jianguo pressing another bucket of water, "You plan to take your entire family Wet?"

    Zhong Jianguo gave her a deep look, picked up the bucket and left.

    Zhou Shufen was taken aback by him: "Are you all right? Captain Zhong."

    Sister Duan laughed: "Xiao Zhong thinks you talk too much."

    "Mr. Song is better than me, and I haven't seen him dislike it." Zhou Shufang pouted, "It's really what, the lover sees Xi Shi."

    Sister Duan shook the fan and smiled: "Since you know, don't compare yourself with Xiao Song."

    "Sister-in-law is right." Zhou Shufen saw that Zhong Jianguo poured the water under the eaves of the porch, and came back to press the water, "It saves you being uncomfortable." Look. When I found a string of golden yellow things on the fence, I was very curious, "Sister-in-law, is that bitter gourd over there?"

    Sister Duan followed her finger and said, "No. It's a leprosy grape, and some people call it 'matchmaker'."

    "Leap grapes? This is the first time I've heard of it." Zhou Shufen smacked, "I heard you mean fruit, not vegetables?"

    Sister Duan: "No."

    Zhou Shufen licked the corner of her mouth, then turned to Zhong Jianguo.

    Sister Duan saw her like this, she was speechless and wanted to laugh, she simply said, "I'll go pick a few." Go to the west fence and pick four yellow and big leprosy grapes and hand them to Zhou Shufen San One, she opened one and handed it to Zhou Shufen in half, "Don't throw away the seeds. Next year, you can plant them under the walls, and you won't have to worry about fruit to eat all summer."

    "So simple?" Zhou Shufen asked quickly.

    Sister Duan: "This thing is not a rare thing, it is as good as agaric." After a pause, "I originally planned to plant some, but Xiao Song said that a vine will bear fruit, I Both Lao Liu and I couldn't finish it, so I didn't plant it. If I want to eat it, I'll come to her house to pick it up."

    Zhou Shufen took a bite: "The taste is okay. Listen to you, didn't you give the seeds to the teacher?"

    "The baby brought it back from outside." Sister Duan said, "I heard that it was given to him by a child of the Qu family. By the way, there are a few thornberries in the east by the gate. It was also brought back by the big baby." Seeing Zhou Shufen getting up, she said quickly. "Don't go, it's gone."

    Zhou Shufen sat back and looked around, "This yard isn't bigger than ours, why do you plant so many things? I've been here several times, but I haven't seen it."

    "I forgot my eyes at home." Zhong Jianguo said coldly.

    Zhou Shufen choked for a moment: "Captain Zhong, don't think that Teacher Song is at home, I'm afraid of you. I'll go to see the old horse later."

    Zhong Jianguo glanced at her and twitched the corners of his mouth: "Your old horse doesn't like me, if you come to him, not only will he not come, he has to scold you. It's getting late, Pick up some dishes and go home quickly. Don't leave our house sitting."

    "It's like someone said it rare." Zhou Shufen got up, thinking about Song Zhaodi sleeping like a pig, thought about it, and sat back again.

    Sister Duan saw her like this and was very curious: "Xiao Zhou, are you looking for Xiao Song?"

    "There must be something." Zhong Jianguo glanced at Zhou Shufen, "She came to the door only two hours after we came back. I guess it's not a small matter."

    Sister-in-law Duan: "There are no outsiders here. If you have anything to do, just tell her. When Xiao Song wakes up, I will tell her."

    Zhou Shufen gave Zhong Jianguo a subconscious look.

    Zhong Jianguo sighed: "I'll go back to the house." Carrying the bucket, he went into the house.

    Zhou Shufen waited for him to walk into the room before whispering, "Auntie, you go back and give this cloth to Xiao Song, she will know as soon as she sees the cloth."

    "What?" Sister-in-law Duan took over, "Make clothes for your children? Just tell Xiao Zhong. The school hasn't started yet, and Xiao Song has nothing to do, Xiao Zhong will not refuse. of."

    Zhou Shufen waved her hand: "It's not for children to make clothes." Pointing to her chest, "Give it to me."

    Sister Duan's heart moved, and she couldn't help laughing and crying: "If you make underwear, you will make underwear. Look at you, I thought Zhenxing was making trouble with you again."

    "After Mr. Song left for more than a month, let alone the trouble, the whole island is quiet." Zhou Shufen said, "When we think about the revitalization of our family, we will say, when will the big baby come back, big baby When will you be back? The big baby is back today, and tomorrow it's time to make a fuss."

    Sister Duan: "Children like to make trouble. After two years, if you ask him to go out to play, he will be too lazy to go out. Besides, it's summer vacation, the weather is hot, and the teacher doesn't What kind of homework is assigned, if you don't ask him to play, why do you ask him to go?"

    "That's what I said." Zhou Shufen said, "I'm not afraid that children only know how to play. Now the weather is hot, I'm afraid they will go to the beach to swim."

    Sister Duan thought for a while: "That's true. But don't worry, I'll talk to Xiao Song. Her family is self-reliant and obedient. With these brothers watching, the big baby doesn't Dare to jump into the sea."

    Being confused, Song Zhaodi didn't take the initiative to speak, and only said to Zhong Jianguo when she got inside the room: "I saw Sun Wanru just now, standing in the yard silently like a ghost. During the time you're not at home, nothing happened to the Shen family, right?"

    "No." Zhong Jianguo thought about it carefully, "I met Shen Xuancheng when I went to the camp yesterday, and I talked to him for a while, but I didn't realize anything was wrong. Wait, this afternoon Zhou Shufen sat down at our house and said that she saw Sun Wanru."

    Song Zhaodi frowned slightly: "What does she mean?"

    "I probably found out that you are good and want to make friends with you." Zhong Jianguo said casually, "Unfortunately, it's too late. Our teacher Song not only depends on the mood when we cook, but also when we make friends."

    Song Zhaodi twisted on his arm: "Then do you know how I'm feeling recently?"

    "I just came back from my mother's house, I must be in a good mood." Zhong Jianguo said, "In such a good mood, Zhou Shufen will find some work for you again, and your life will be full, so you don't need friends."

    Song Zhaodi froze for a moment: "Do you really know me?"

    "I'm your man." Zhong Jianguo said, "Sleep, sleep, these days when you're not here—"

    Song Zhaodi interrupted him: "Don't say you haven't slept well."

    Zhong Jianguo choked: "You might as well not come back."

    "Hey, I don't want to come back either." Several children were upstairs, sleeping like piglets, Song Zhaodi didn't worry about them coming down suddenly, and made fun of Zhong Jianguo, "But I'm afraid that The people sent twelve letters in a row, which made the villagers think that I had sneaked back to my parents’ home with my child.”

    Zhong Jianguo was a little uncomfortable and coughed twice: "Don't talk nonsense. Me, I'll pick you up personally."

    Song Zhaodi was stunned, she realized what he had said, and she was amused: "Captain Zhong, I am really impressed."

    "Did you suddenly find that you admire me?" Zhong Jianguo replied in a casual manner.

    Song Zhaodi almost choked: "The tongue is like a reed, and the face is thick."

    Zhong Jianguo opened his mouth to ask what he meant, but when the words reached his throat, he slapped Song Zhaodi's ass.

    Song Zhaodi staggered, then kicked her leg.

    Zhong Jianguo reached out his hand subconsciously, stretched his hand halfway, turned his wrist, and picked him up by the waist.

    Song Zhaodi wanted to struggle like a conditioned reflex, but when she saw the stairs in front of her, she didn't dare to move, because she was afraid that they would roll down together.

    The next morning, Song Zhaodi smelled a fragrance, rubbed her eyes and sat up, seeing the man beside her, she woke up instantly, raised her leg and said, "Why are you here?"

    "Where can I be if I'm not here?" Zhong Jianguo hugged his leg, "Is your mother sick? Use force early in the morning."

    Song Zhaodi: "Who cooks the meals you are here?"

    "What kind of meal?" asked subconsciously, Zhong Jianguo opened his eyes wide, "Egg taste?"

    Song Zhaodi nodded and swallowed: "You didn't smell it wrong, I was awakened by this smell."

    "I'll go down and have a look." Zhong Jianguo put on his big pants and ran downstairs. When he went downstairs, he saw that there are five children on a long table, each with a bowl in front of them. Scrambled eggs with shallots and a bowl of white rice porridge, I couldn't help but rejoice, "The real version of the church apprentice starved to death, the master."

    Zhong Dawa swallowed the egg and greeted, "Dad woke up? Wash your face and eat."

    "Son, it's only six o'clock." Zhong Jianguo reminded.

    Independently swallowed the porridge in his mouth: "Dad, it's not that we remembered it so early, it's because we ate too early yesterday and woke up hungry."

    "Then you should also call me or your mother." Zhong Jianguo looked around, only eggs and white rice porridge, "Why don't you cook?"

    Dawa: "I'm so hungry. Scrambled eggs with shallots is the easiest, so we'll do this."

    "Your mother said two eggs a day, how many eggs did you put?" Zhong Jianguo asked.

    Self-reliance: "Ten eggs. I beat eggs, chopped green onions, freshly washed green onions, Erwa set fire to fire, Dawa fried vegetables."

    "The division of labor is clear, not bad." Zhong Jianguo patted his younger son's head, "You didn't do anything?"

    Sanwa removed his hand: "I took the bowl and chopsticks."

    Song Zhaodi also got dressed and came down: "Is it Dawa's idea?"

    "It's not really this time." Gengsheng said, "I'm hungry."

    Song Zhaodi raised her eyebrows: "I wronged you? Classmate Zhong Dawa."

    "No need to apologize." Da Wa waved her hand, "You are my mother, I forgive you."

    Song Zhaodi twisted his face: "The porridge is not too hungry, shall I make some more cakes?"

    "Pancakes?" Erwa asked quickly, "Mother, I want to eat pancakes."

    Song Zhaodi think about it: "Pancakes are too troublesome. Your dad can eat five or six. When he is not at home, I will make them for you. Today I will make scallion pancakes."

    "Pfft!" Zi Li hurriedly covered his mouth and swallowed the egg before saying, "Dad, don't cry."

    Zhong Jianguo glared at him: "Little bastard!" Then he turned to Song Zhaodi, "You wait for me!"

    "I'm waiting for you to start the fire." Song Zhaodi said.

    Zhong Jianguo choked: "You can be angry with me one by one."

    "Don't be angry, Dad." Sanwa turned around and patted his dad's waist, "I'll help you beat Brother Zili."

    Zhong Jianguo looked at the child who played the most unreasonable cards in their family: "Thank you, no need."

    "Humph!" Sanwa turned around, "Brother Zili, don't be afraid, if Dad hits you, I'll help you."

    I looked at him on my own, but couldn't see what the child wanted to do: "Dad doesn't beat me, I don't need you to help me."

    Three baby choked.

    Song Zhaodi was amused: "Don't tease him. Zhong Jianguo, go wash your face and brush your teeth." Walking to Sanwa, "I want my father to take you out to play, or I want to give you some of my brother's eggs. ?"

    "Neither." Zhong Sanwa said, "I just want to help my father and brother."

    Zhong Jianguo glanced at him: "You believe it yourself. Zhao Di, don't talk to him, hurry up and make something to eat while it's still hot."

    Song Zhaodi has lived on the island for several years. She knows that it will be 30 degrees outside after nine o'clock.

    After seven o'clock, the house was packed, Zhong Jianguo went to the camp, Dawa took his brothers and brothers to find his little friends, Song Zhaodi pulled out the old vegetable seedlings, and took out the grown cucumbers, Remove tomatoes, peppers and eggplants.

    Although Zhou Shufen picked up a lot, Song Zhaodi still picked two baskets.

    Sister-in-law Duan has vegetables at home, and Shen's yard is also full of vegetables and fruits, and Song Zhaodi's colleagues don't live here, so their family of seven can't finish all the dishes.

    Song Zhaodi thought about it, eggplants can be dried in the sun, and the others cannot be stored for a long time, so she called Dawa back and asked him to send a basket to the Qu family.

    Dawa was very afraid of the enthusiastic Qu family, she shook her head without thinking, and pointed to self-reliance: "Tell him to go."

    "I can't help you?" Song Zhaodi asked with wide eyes.

    Dawa: "No. Mother, you give too much."

    Song Zhaodi: "Rebirth, find out your brothers' little back baskets, divide them into three or four back baskets, and send them to whoever you want."

    "They give a gift in return, do we want it?" Zhong Dawa asked quickly.

    Song Zhaodi: "For green vegetables or sea vegetables that we don't have at home, you can ask for them, but you are not allowed to ask for others."

    "Got it." Zhong Dawa said, "Mom, the scorpion that Dad bought has not been used yet, and it will rust if you don't use it."

    Song Zhaodi looked at him: "Aren't you hungry again?"

    "No." Zhong Dawa was very full, "I just want to know what delicious food that scorpion can make."

    Song Zhaodi: "Pancakes. However, I can't make them."

    "Then what do you want it for?" Dawa didn't believe it, "You lied to me, mother."

    Song Zhaodi: "Your mother really can't do it."

    "I don't believe it." Da Wa asked Zi Li, "Do you believe it?"

    Self-reliance: "Mother can do anything."

    "That's because you don't know that I can't know more, that's why you think I'm omnipotent." Song Zhaodi said, "I saw my grandmother make spring cakes with scorpions when I was a child, but you can give it a try. The premise is that it is not delicious, and you have to finish it. Don’t waste it!”
