Stepmother

    Song Zhaodi was surprised: "Why is my sister-in-law here?"

    "The old lady is not feeling well, I'll come and have a look." As she spoke, Nurse Liang walked up to her and saw the contents of the basin, "This is..."

    Song Zhaodi: "Several fishermen's children reviewed their homework with Dawa, and received the admission letter a few days ago, so they came over with a few fish to thank us. Dawa and the others left today, If we can't finish it, we'll give my aunt one."

    "Mr. Song come in quickly." Mother Shen's voice came from the room.

    Song Zhaodi went in and handed the basin to Shen Ying, and saw Shen's mother hanging water: "Sick?"

    Song Zhaodi hurriedly asked: "Is it serious?"

    "It's not serious." Head Nurse Liang said, "However, as she gets older, I suggest that the doctor hang a bottle of water for her, so as to save her trouble and pass out when she is working."

    Song Zhaodi wondered: "How could there be heat stroke? It was fine when it was 378 degrees earlier."

    "It was hot at that time, I didn't go into the kitchen, it was the girl Shen Ying who cooked." Mother Shen said, "I don't think it's very hot today, so I plan to make egg pancakes for the two children. Thinking of getting heatstroke early in the morning. It’s a weird day too.”

    Song Zhaodi: "The autumn tiger is very powerful. You can't be careless. That fish will wait for Captain Shen to come back to clean up. The fish head is stewed, the fish meat is steamed, and you should eat more tonic."

    Head Nurse Liang smiled: "Mr. Song will live." After speaking, she suddenly thought, "Xiao Song, you know a lot of people and you have a lot of relatives, you can introduce a person to Xiao Shen. Right. The old and the young in the family can't be taken care of without a young man."

    "Me?" Song Zhaodi laughed, "Sister-in-law, stop joking, none of my relatives can worry about it. Let's just say my in-law's family has a cousin like my cousin. The Zhong family wouldn't agree. On my parents' side, I'm the only one who is highly educated, and a farmer girl who hasn't gone to school, Head Shen doesn't like it."

    Head Nurse Liang thought that Shen Xuancheng's ex-wife was Sun Wanru, and couldn't help but nodded: "You are right. The knowledge is not as good as that of Sun Wanru, and it can't be much worse. But..." Turning to Shen's mother, " Why don't you always ask Xiao Shen what he is looking for, and I'll help him pay attention."

    Mother Shen smiled: "Thank you, head nurse, I'll ask when he comes back."

    "Then you have to discuss it with Head Shen. Head Shen is not willing to do so." Song Zhaodi reminded her.

    Mother Shen sighed: "I used to think that I didn't have anything to eat at home, so I sent him to serve as a soldier, I felt sorry for him, and I didn't dare to force him to marry a daughter-in-law. It dragged on for several years, and finally... This time we have to let him speak."

    "Where are these two children?" Song Zhaodi asked.

    Mother Shen glanced at Shen Ying: "They have an old woman like me. I am afraid that I am old now, and the two of them are married, so Xuancheng is the only one left in such a large yard, When I got home, I couldn't even drink hot water. When I think about this, I feel uncomfortable in my heart." Tears came out as he spoke.

    Song Zhaodi said quickly, "Auntie, don't cry, Head Shen will figure it out."

    "He, he can't figure it out, I'll call him until he can figure it out." Shen's mother is in good health and has no serious illnesses. Occasionally, she feels that she can live to be ninety years old. This morning, I almost fainted while cooking, and Mother Shen didn't dare to care for her.

    Song Zhaodi smiled and said, "If the child is disobedient, he will have to beat him a few times. The eldest child in our family doesn't think he is so good at studying. When it is time to beat him, his father will adjust the belt and beat him when he takes off his shoes."

      I always thought that Mrs. Duan was frightening the big baby.

    Song Zhaodi: "It did."

    "What did the big baby say that his father never hit him?" Nurse Liang was curious.

    宋招娣笑道：“爱面子。他觉得自己是孩子王，是老大，被别人知道他回到家还会挨揍，很没面子的。”

    "This big baby." Nurse Liang couldn't help sighing.

    "Mother!"

    Song Zhaodi looked out subconsciously, thinking that she was in the Shen family: "It seems that Sanwa has returned, I will go back first."

    "Give you the basin, Teacher Song." Shen Ying quickly handed the basin to Song Zhaodi.

    Song Zhaodi: "Take good care of your grandma, and call your dad later and ask him to come back to cook. You are young, you should be more careful not to suffer from heat stroke." Pause, "Your dad If you are tired of doing housework, you can marry someone who is virtuous and capable."

    Shen Ying was happy: "I see, Teacher Song."

    "You, you will really cause problems for Xiao Shen." Head Nurse Liang couldn't help but laugh.

    Song Zhaodi: "Marry a wife and marry a virtuous man. Now the old man and the child are not taken care of, so he blames him." Hearing Sanwa calling her again, she hurriedly took the basin out.

    "Why is the mother next door?" Sanwa ran over, "The door is not closed when you go out. I thought you were in the toilet."

    Song Zhaodi: "It's not even ten o'clock, the boat is leaving?"

    "It will open when it is full." Sanwa said, "Why is my mother going to Shen Ying's house?'

    Song Zhaodi: "Give them a fish." Pointing to the bucket beside the water well, "You think about how to eat, let's make one in the afternoon."

    Sanwa ran over and saw that the bucket was full of fish: "Is one enough to eat?"

    "There are also shrimps and crabs." Zhen Gang looked at Song Zhaodi, "Teacher, isn't it?"

    Song Zhaodi smiled: "Yes."

    "Then there are four fish left, can we finish eating it tonight?" Erwa worried, "Will it spoil if we don't finish it?"

    Song Zhaodi thought about it: "It will stink when you die. However, I have already figured out how to deal with it."

    "Then let's stew tofu." Erwa said, "Mother, give me the money, I'll buy tofu."

    Song Zhaodi pointed upstairs: "Let's go with Zhengang and buy what you want. Our family is less busy now, so it's better to cook. What do you want to eat, what will I do for you?"

    "It's good for the eldest brother to leave." Sanwa Dale, "Mother, I will go with the second brother."

    Song Zhaodi glanced at him, too lazy to break him down: "Go. I have to read at home in the afternoon, and school will start in a few days."

    "I know, I know." Sanwa said, "I told my eldest brother that I want to surpass him."

    The perfect score is 400%. If only one mathematics subject is likely to get a perfect score, Dawa can still take the test of more than 380. Song Zhaodi felt that Sanwa's milk-feeding efforts could not surpass Dawa: "Then you have to work harder to surpass him, Dawa can laugh at you for a lifetime."

    "I won't give him this chance." Sanwa is full of confidence. When they arrived at the non-staple food factory, Sanwa was dumbfounded.

    In the past, I used to be self-reliant and my big baby came to buy vegetables. When Dawa and the others were busy reviewing, Song Zhaodi didn't go to buy vegetables, it was Erwa and Zhengang. Occasionally, Sanwa followed up and helped with the dishes. Now let him be the master, thinking that there are fish and seafood at home, and green vegetables in the yard, I suddenly don't know what to buy: "What does the second brother like to eat?"

    "I like to eat everything my mother cooks." Erwa said.

    Sanwa gave him a white look: "Little bastard. Zhen Gang, what do you like to eat?"

    "I like everything Erwa likes to eat." Zhen Gang couldn't get over him, so he simply pushed Erwa.

    Three baby choked: "Big coward."

    I got the tofu, Erwa looked around, there was nothing she wanted to eat: "Sanwa, let's go."

    "No, no." Sanwa grabbed Erwa's arm, "Mother hasn't said what we want to eat for many years, what did she do. Second brother, do you want to eat what mother did yesterday? schnitzel?"

    Erwa: "Mother said it's called tenderloin."

    "Okay, tenderloin." Sanwa said.

    Erwa smiled and said, "Sanwazi, the eldest brother used up all the meat tickets at home."

    "Want to buy meat? I have a ticket here. Sanwa, here it is."

    An extra hand appeared in front of her, Sanwa subconsciously stepped back, looked up and saw that it was none other than Political Commissar Zhang's lover: "I'm joking with the second brother. We have several fish in our house, and then we buy meat. My mother will beat me up."

    "Just say I gave it to you."

    Erwa pushed her: "No need, auntie. My brother and the others have gone to school. There are few people in the family, and they can't finish the fish."

    "Why did you leave so early?" Commissar Zhang's lover asked quickly.

    Second baby: "My brother Zili is going to report in the Northeast. My mother is worried and asked my elder brother to send him to the capital before returning to the capital."

    "The northeast is thousands of miles away from here, and I wouldn't worry about a teenage kid going that far. You really don't want meat tickets?"

    Erwa shook her head repeatedly: "I really don't." Pointing to the basket that Zhen Gang was carrying, "My mother is still waiting for us to go home."

    When I got home, the second baby told Song Zhaodi about it, and then said, "Does mother think that everyone is very polite to us?"

    "It's not polite, it's enthusiasm." Song Zhaodi said, "Erwa, Zhengang, if you two can also help the children on the island get into college, our family will be more popular than now."

    Imagine: "Then let me try."

    Song Zhaodi was happy: "Go get some salted eggs, I'll make something delicious for you."

    "Didn't you take them all?" Erwa asked.

    Song Zhaodi: "For your brother, they took the one I marinated at the end of last month, and two jars were marinated half a month ago. I won't marinate so much this time. I ate too much. Salt is not good for the body."

    "What about the eggs?" Sanwa didn't wait for Song Zhaodi to speak, "It's not good to eat too many eggs a day, let's kill two more hens."

    Song Zhaodi couldn't help shaking her head when he saw his bright eyes: "Kill again on August 15th."

    "It's great!" Sanwa jumped up happily, "I'll kill two more on New Year's Day. Mother, I'll kill two more on Spring Festival."

    Song Zhaodi: "We will kill two more on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and two more on the Dragon Boat Festival? When your brother comes back from summer vacation, we will kill you."

    Sanwa stopped jumping: "Mother, kill the fish, I'll press the water for you."

    Song Zhaodi glanced at him and went out of the kitchen to get the scissors for cutting fish.

    Around eleven o'clock, Song Zhaodi started cooking. Because the fish was too big, I didn't put too much tofu for fear of not being able to finish it. The leftover tofu can be used as a dish, and Song Zhaodi used salted egg yolk and tofu to make a egg yolk tofu. The egg whites are not too salty, Song Zhaodi cut some shallots to make steamed eggs. Then boil the shrimp with water and steam the crab.

    Zhong Jianguo didn't smell the fragrance when he got home, so he shouted into the house without thinking, "Have you cooked yet?"

    "It's almost ready." Erwa came out with egg yolk tofu, "Dad, mother said to eat more vegetables and less food today. Well, try not to eat."

    Zhong Jianguo took off his hat: "Do you cook a lot today?"

    "More than yesterday." Zhen Gang came out with a pot of crabs, "Erwa, the teacher asked you to send four to Shen Ying's house. The strong mother gave too much, let's eat it Not finished."

    Erwa returned to the kitchen and came out with four crabs, followed by Sanwa with a large plate of shrimp.

    Zhong Jianguo couldn't help swallowing: "It's more abundant than the Chinese New Year."

    "Thanks to Big Brother and the others." Erwa said and walked out.

    Zhong Jianguo washed his hands and came back to see two more pots of fish soup on the table, "Zhao Di, did you send it to the Sun family?"

    Song Zhaodi: "No. Sun Yuan's daughter-in-law is too invisible."

    Zhong Jianguo wondered: "What's wrong?"

    Song Zhaodi said roughly what Li Lanying said: "Listen to her tone, my English is good, so I should give her second daughter a supplementary lesson, which is very reasonable."

    "This kind of thing." Zhong Jianguo smiled, "She probably thinks that the supplementary class is just a few questions, and you are a teacher, this kind of thing is a big effort for you."

    Song Zhaodi stared: "Is it okay for me to be idle?"

    "Okay, I didn't say bad." Zhong Jianguo said, "Don't worry about me. When she looks for you again, tell her that Yongcheng High School starts classes and call her Send her second child to Yongcheng to go to high school."

    Song Zhaodi: "If she finds me again, I will say so."

    "I support you." Zhong Jianguo opened the crab and handed it to Song Zhaodi, "Eat the crab."

    Sanwa's eyes rolled: "Dad, help me peel one."

    "If it's too much trouble, let Zhen Gang eat it." Zhong Jianguo said without hesitation.

    Zhengang pursed his lips and smiled: "Sanwa, I'll eat for you."

    "Have you finished eating?" Sanwa glared at him, "Mother said we will eat three each, and shrimp and fish, so I'm not afraid to support you."

    Zhengang took a look at Zhong Jianguo and Song Zhaodi. Seeing that they pretended not to hear, he said boldly, "I'm not afraid."

    Sanwa choked: "I'm afraid."

    "You are so kind to Zhen Gang." Erwa came in with an empty saucer, "Mother, when I arrived at Shen's house, Head Shen was squatting by the water well and killing fish."

    Zhong Jianguo: "Mrs. Shen didn't cook?"

    Song Zhaodi told him about Shen's mother's heat stroke, and said that Nurse Liang asked her to help Shen Xuancheng introduce a partner: "I didn't dare to agree. If Sun Wanru's life is not good, come back to Shen Xuancheng. Shen Xuancheng When my head twitches and I want to divorce someone, I can't live with my conscience for the rest of my life."

    "Speak as if you have a choice." Zhong Jianguo glanced at her, peeled a shrimp and threw it into her bowl.

    Song Zhaodi took a look and continued to eat crabs: "I have no choice, my uncle must know many intellectuals who were abandoned by their husbands."

    "Speaking of my uncle, why haven't I heard you talk about your uncle?" Zhong Jianguo asked, "Daily was admitted to university, but your cousin or cousin never looked for you?"

    Song Zhaodi: "My uncle's family are honest people, I don't take the initiative to mention it, and they are embarrassed to say it. Besides, Zhao Yin kicked you and your eldest brother out, and my grandma mentioned this. I feel sorry for you two brothers, and I have no face to look for your daughter-in-law."

    "If only our neighbors, relatives and friends could be like your eldest sister, my eldest brother, and your uncle and my uncle, it would be great." Zhong Jianguo couldn't help saying.

    Sanwa asked, "Did Dad mean Peach Blossom Spring?"

    "Eat your crab." Zhong Jianguo glared at him, "Zhengang, don't eat, eat shrimp and crab. We don't have a refrigerator, so we have to finish it."

    Zhen Gang: "I'm eating." Pause, "If the baby is at home, the crabs will be gone."

    "They can eat it even in the imperial capital." Song Zhaodi said, "Maybe the food is better than ours." Zhen Gang didn't understand, "You have it at Grandpa Qi's house."

    Sanwa was very curious: "How does the mother know?"

    "Your grandfather Qi is fond of self-reliance and rebirth. This season is the time to eat crab, so you will definitely ask the nanny to cook it for them." Song Zhaodi said, "Even if you can't eat it at your grandpa Qi's house, If your brother has money, he will naturally go to a big restaurant to eat."

    Sanwa nodded: "Big brother can do it. Mother, give him fifty dollars next time, don't give him that much."

    "It's really your brother's younger brother." Zhong Jianguo said.
