Cuicui married Zhang Lin in the twelfth lunar month and became pregnant after the first lunar month. Zhang Lin's mother was so happy that she told everyone that she was so young that she wanted to hold her grandson. Zhang Lin's father said, "A man in his fifties, why are he young? Maybe he is a granddaughter."
Zhang Lin's mother glared at her husband fiercely and said, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute." Zhang Lin's father was not anxious or annoyed, and said with a smile, "You are good everywhere, but you just don't like to listen to the truth." Zhang Lin's mother turned around and went to the kitchen in anger.
There is a big sauerkraut jar in the corner of the kitchen. Zhang Lin's mother thrust her nose and opened the sauerkraut jar and took out a sauerkraut that was not smooth. She carried the sauerkraut on the edge of the sauerkraut and controlled the water. The fermentation smell in the sauerkraut made her stomach churn. She hurriedly threw the sauerkraut into the vegetable bowl and twisted the big faucet to rinse.
Hearing the sound of water, Zhang Lin’s father entered the kitchen. When he saw his wife washing sauerkraut with cold water, he said with distress: "Don't boil some warm water, it will freeze your hands!" Zhang Lin's mother ignored him. "You go back to the house and I'll wash it." Zhang Lin's father said as he reached out to remove the apron from her waist. "I'm not relieved to give my daughter-in-law food to you." Zhang Lin's waist flashed flexibly. Zhang Lin's father withdrew his hand and laughed and said, "Okay, okay, support you, a good mother-in-law in the countryside."
The job of Zhang Lin's father is Zhang Lin's father. Zhang Lin's mother loves to eat sauerkraut but says that the sauerkraut jar is stubborn. When Grandma Zhang Lin was alive, she said she had "small stomach", and the old lady in the village said she "was spoiled by Zhang Lin's father." When Zhang Lin was young, he didn't put sauerkraut jars at home. Zhang Lin's father went to Zhang Lin's grandma's house to grab sauerkraut. Zhang Lin grew up, and the father and son were both pickled cabbage baskets. They didn’t eat enough, so Zhang Lin’s mother soaked a large tank of pickled cabbage every year. I bought a plastic cover for this and kept the sauerkraut jar tightly. Moreover, Zhang Lin’s father took sauerkraut once and changed the water in the jar to make the sour taste less. But the kitchen was hot. In a few days, another layer of white marinade was found in the sauerkraut jar, and the sour smell came up again.
Zhang Lin's mother endured all the nausea and rinsed the sauerkraut and placed it on vegetable dumpling . She took out the casserole and boiled the big bones. After the sauerkraut was cut, the bone soup was milky and white. Then the shredded sauerkraut was put in, and the casserole was gurgling on the stove. During this time, she fryed another plate of stupid eggs and fried a lean meat dried tofu .
In the morning, Cuicui returned to her parents' home. Zhanglin's school has not yet started, so she accompanied Cuicui. Before leaving, Zhang Lin's mother told the couple to come back for lunch. The meal was ready and the table was set up. Cuicui's mother called and Zhang Lin's father answered. Cuicui's mother said, "In-law, you don't say anything, these two children don't eat here." Zhang Lin's father hurriedly said, "Where are eating different? Let's eat there." After that, Zhang Lin's father hung up the phone.
Zhang Lin's mother understood while listening. She picked up the phone and was about to call back, but Zhang Lin's father snatched it. She untied her apron and put on her coat. Zhang Lin's father stretched out his arms and stopped her, saying, "The child eats differently, you shouldn't say that you come back to eat in the morning." "What do you know? The dishes I specially cooked for Cuicui are good for our eldest grandson!" As he said that, he had to wear a coat again. Zhang Lin's father hugged her fat waist and said with a smile: "It's just right if you don't come back. Let's live a world of two." Zhang Lin's father is good at doing farm work, and his arms are very strong, so Zhang Lin's mother can't move even if she wants to. Her face flushed and said, "Let go, it's not embarrassing to see me!" Zhang Lin's father loosened his arm but did not put it down, and said, "Good wife, I know you are dedicated to this family. Let's eat ours in the evening. Let's eat ours."
Zhang Lin's mother's face softened, she sighed, and said, "That big bone stewed sauerkraut must be kept for Cuicui." Zhang Lin's father begged and said, "You don't know, I just love to eat sauerkraut. Cuicui can't eat so much, I can just eat a bowl." "No, I can't eat it either." Zhang Lin's mother's face fell down again. Zhang Lin's father hurriedly said, "Okay, let me keep it for Cuicui."
In the afternoon, Cuicui and Zhang Lin returned from their parents' home. Zhang Lin was holding a can of chili sauce in his hand, and Cuicui was holding a pot of dumplings in his hand. The two families live close to each other, but Cui Cui's mother couldn't come easily: one is because she was afraid that Zhang Lin's mother would be too quick to give in, and the other is that she had a good time with Zhang Lin's father when she was young. So, as soon as Cuicui got home, she brought back some food to the girl that she loved since she was a child.She usually does it with the will and can't send it here. Giving food and drink is like a mother-in-law who doesn’t love her daughter-in-law, but it only has bad things but no good things for her girl.
When Zhang Lin's mother saw the red chili sauce, her heart was like a spring on the mountain in winter, and the cold air was rising up. However, she quickly suppressed her anger and said with a smile: "Cui, what delicious food did your mother cook for you?" "Just make dumplings." Cui Cui said. "Mom, you can also chop some chili for dumplings in the future, it's so delicious," said Zhang Lin. Zhang Lin's mother glanced at her son and said, "Don't eat chili peppers in this situation. My eldest grandson can't stand it if you eat too much." "There is rich in vitamin C in peppers, and eating them will not affect the fetus." Zhang Lin said. "Don't just write in the book. The daughter-in-law of Li Lao San's family in our village just gave birth to pimples on her face because of eating chili peppers..." "Mom, I'll listen to you." Cuicui said hurriedly. Zhang Lin glanced at his mother and said to Cuicui, "What our mother said has no scientific basis. You have loved to eat chili since you were a child. You can eat whatever you want." Zhang Lin's mother stared at the back of her son's head and couldn't say a word.
Zhang Lin and Cuicui returned to their room. Cuicui complained to Zhang Lin: "Mom is for our own good, why do you have to do with her?" Zhang Lin said: "She has been the eldest grandson these days, and I am already annoyed." "What is the old man's endurance? I just want to hold his grandson?" Cuicui said. "Cuicui is such a sensible and good girl. I'm not wrong." Zhang Lin looked at Cui Cui affectionately and said, "I also know that my mother has no malice, but she is afraid of giving you a grievance." Cui Cui said, "What's wrong with this? Isn't it just that I don't eat chili peppers?"
supper, Zhang Lin's mother stir-fryed a plate of stupid eggs, a plate of lean dried meat tofu, and served it on the table with a casserole of big bone soup. When Zhang Lin saw that these dishes were all loved by Cuicui, but in the past, they used to stir-fry small peppers with stupid eggs, chili peppers with dried tofu , and a few dried peppers were added to the stewed sauerkraut with big bones. The dishes are still the same, but they are all spicy. He is poor Cuicui. Thinking of this, Zhang Lin sat at the table without saying a word. Cuicui said, "Dad, you like to eat chili dumplings, I'll fry them for you." Zhang Lin's father said happily, "Okay." "So many dishes, why are you fried dumplings!" Zhang Lin's mother's voice was a little loud. "Let's eat tomorrow morning." Zhang Lin's father quickly changed his words. "Cuicui, let's have a meal." Zhang Lin said.
Zhang Lin's mother brought a big bowl for Cuicui, served two big bones and some pickled vegetables, and added another spoonful of soup, saying, "Cui, try the big bone soup cooked by Mom, and replenish calcium!" Cuicui smiled at her mother-in-law, scooped a sip of the soup and drank it, and said, "It's very delicious, I can't drink this big bowl." "That's not possible, you have to drink more, you are two people eating now." Cuicui smiled, drank all the soup one spoonful by one, and then handed the big bone to Zhang Lin, saying, "Sports Teacher, eat more meat. "Before Zhang Lin's words, Zhang Lin's mother said, "Don't he have it in the pot? You have to eat meat before your eldest grandson will grow strong." Cui Cui blushed and said, "My mother made a dumpling at noon, one meatball , I'll eat it."
Zhang Lin's mother was stunned for a moment and said, "Then you ate these sauerkraut, what's the lactic acid in this..." "Your mother is so amazing, she's suddenly educated." Zhang Lin's father joked. Zhang Lin smiled bitterly, Cuicui smiled and picked up a chopstick of pickled vegetables and put them in her mouth. She frowned slightly and swallowed it. After eating the sauerkraut in the bowl, and the stupid eggs and dried tofu that Zhang Lin's mother picked up, she felt that her stomach was almost unable to bend. Cuicui stood up and said, "Mom, I'm overeating." Zhang Lin's mother looked at Cuicui with satisfaction and said, "Go back to the house and rest for a while, you don't need to brush the bowl.
Cuicui went back to the room. Zhang Lin's father looked at most of the casserole with big bones, looked at Zhang Lin's mother's face, and said, "It's my turn to eat this time, right?" "Zhang Lin's mother said, "Eat, you both clean up and make new ones tomorrow." "Zhang Lin's father picked up a chopstick from the pot and ate it into his mouth. Before he swallowed it, he said, "How many times have you washed it?" ""What's wrong? "Zhang Lin also picked up a chopstick and ate it into his mouth, and then he quickly vomited it out: "How can you eat it so sour? "Zhang Lin's mother said slowly: "Cuicui doesn't feel sour, and she didn't make it for you two. "How many times have you washed it?" "Zhang Lin's father was a little anxious."Wash it once, cut it again." "If you don't let you wash it, you will wash it three or four times, for fear that you will say it's too sour. You're OK. If you can eat it sour, Cuicui will eat it." Zhang Lin's father was angry. Zhang Lin's mother said complacently, "Just let Cuicui eat sour things, sour and spicy girls, what do you two know?" Zhang Lin's father widened his eyes and said, "Cuicui usually eats chili peppers, but she didn't see her like to eat sour things. Can she stand this sour things?" Zhang Lin shouted and stood up and walked quickly towards the room.
Zhang Lin entered the room, and Cuicui sat on the sofa and read the parenting book. She saw Zhang Lin coming in and said, "Why don't you help mom wash dishes after eating?" Zhang Lin said, "The pickled cabbage is so sour, why don't you make a sound if you can't eat it?" Cui Cui was stunned for a moment, lowered her eyelids, and said, "It's a bit sour." "Then why don't you say it?" Zhang Lin said. "I'm fine with eating it, but there is no chili on the table, so the meal is not delicious." Cuicui said honestly.
The next morning, Zhang Lin's mother got up to cook, and Cuicui got up and went into the kitchen to help. Zhang Lin's mother drove her out quickly and said, "You can't smell the smell of oil smoke, just wait and eat." Cuicui had to go back to her room and stay. Zhang Lin got up early in the morning and ran around the school playground. Cuicui really felt hungry. She especially wanted to eat the chili dumplings she brought back yesterday, and it would be best to dip them in chili sauce. Chili sauce, she remembered that the chili sauce her mother brought yesterday also made her mother put away. There was a puddle in her heart, and it was soon filled with water and was about to overflow. There was fog in front of her eyes. Seeing that the things in the room were like they were separated by yarn, she quickly rubbed her eyes.
Zhang Lin came back from running and entered the room. He took out a bottle of Lao Ganma's spicy sauce from his arms, blinked at Cuicui, smiled and showed his white teeth, and said, "Our children are also spicy." Cuicui's eyes turned red again, she took Lao Ganma, smelled it and said, "It smells so good."
On the breakfast table, Zhang Lin's mother stewed pig's trotters, laying a poached egg, and then brought a plate of lean meat and fried sour cucumbers in front of Cuicui. The fried dumplings were placed in front of Zhang Lin's father. Cuicui looked at the fried dumplings for a moment and was stunned for a moment. Her mother-in-law brought her a bowl of rice and said, "If you want to eat dumplings, my mother will pack them for you at noon." At this time, Zhang Lin sat down with Lao Gan's mother who had unscrewed the lid, and Cuicui felt tight.
Zhang Lin's mother said, "Linlin, don't eat chili peppers anymore. Cui also wants to eat them." "Mom, I bought it for Cuicui, let her eat it." Zhang Lin's mother's eyes suddenly darkened, and the oil on her face was gone after a busy morning. She asked Cuicui nervously: "Tell mom, you like to eat sour things, right?" "Mom, I can eat sour things, but it's really boring if I don't eat spicy food." Zhang Lin's mother suddenly collapsed on the chair.
At this time, Zhang Lin's father ate a chili dumpling and said with a smile: "Whether you are grandson or granddaughter, you can eat sour and love spicy food, it is really the seed of our old Zhang family." Cuicui was amused by her father-in-law's words, and she felt relieved. She picked up a chopstick of Lao Ganma's spicy sauce and ate it happily. Zhang Lin smiled happily as he watched Cuicui eat two bites of hot sauce.
Suddenly, Zhang Lin's mother's eyes lit up again and she said, "Cui, maybe you are pregnant with twins?"
