Today’s New Year’s family dinner was as sumptuous and of a very high standard as always.
And today, Aunt Li did something unique and made it especially grand.
Jiang Dongfang's daughter and son-in-law are not here today. His son-in-law's home is in Baoding, Hebei, not far from Sijiu City.
After being away from home for more than 10 years, it is rare to be able to come back from all over the world to celebrate the New Year, so early yesterday morning the couple asked for leave in advance to take their children back to their in-laws' house.
So there were only four people eating today, which was a little deserted, but Aunt Li prepared 10 dishes in one pot, four meat, four vegetarian and two cold in one pot, what a guy! It's so rich that it's a bit outrageous.
Homestyle braised pork, Mushu pork, braised chicken nuggets, fried hairtail, these are the four meat dishes.
Fried bean sprouts noodles, shredded potatoes, vinegared cabbage, and homemade tofu are four vegetarian dishes.
Vinegar stingheads and fried peanuts are two cold dishes.
In addition, there is also a copper pot, which contains a steaming specialty of the Northeastern banquet: pork butchered vegetables.
Killer vegetables are sauerkraut, big bones, white meat, blood sausage, frozen tofu, vermicelli and other things that are slowly stewed in one pot over low heat.
The flavors of various ingredients blend together, making it fragrant but not greasy. Add a sip of garlic sauce and a sip of warm white wine. In winter, it is simply a delicacy on earth.
Even Du Weiguo, who had seen such a big battle, was a little surprised by it. He smiled and joked:
"Aunt Li, what are we doing today? We won't be able to survive in the future? What kind of arrangement is this?"
When Aunt Li heard this, her expression was a little shy, but she was a cheerful person, so she said it openly:
"Xiao Du, the last time you came to see me injured, I was too busy teasing my grandson and ignored you without caring about your feelings.
Later, your Uncle Jiang taught me a lesson. Auntie, I also realized it myself and corrected my mistakes. Today I specially cooked your favorite dishes. I had no other intention, I just wanted to reward you. "
After Du Weiguo heard this, he quickly waved his hands and bowed: "Auntie! What are you talking about! You treat me and Caiyu like your own sons and daughters, as good as you are!
If you say that, it's really outrageous. You've also offended me. I won't be able to eat this meal today! "
Aunt Li was very comfortable going down the steps. She looked at Du Weiguo with satisfaction and gently held Du Weiguo's injured hand:
"Xiao Du! You are such a sensible kid. You have been wronged! Let Auntie take a look at your wound. Does it still hurt?"
Du Weiguo's hand has now been completely healed, and is no longer even wrapped in gauze. Although his self-healing ability is very powerful, it will still leave scars, so it is not too abrupt.
Du Weiguo smiled broadly and said: "Hi! Auntie, this little injury has been healed long ago. I have rough skin and thick flesh, so there is nothing wrong with me.
I originally wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to recover from my injury and take a few more days off to go to Guizhou Province to see Caiyu.
such a pity! The leader of the new unit was indifferent and gave me 7 days of sick leave, not even one more day.
If I were still under my uncle Jiang, he would probably give me a month's vacation. Now I look forward to the stars and the moon every day and want to return to our factory as soon as possible! My own home is just comfortable. "
Jiang Dongfang curled his lips, sneered, and said angrily:
"Ha! Don't try to bully me. You have to be good and cheap! You are in the new unit, and you are the leader of the security system. It will probably take less than two years to reach the deputy director level. Are you willing to come back to us? Is this a ruined temple?”
Du Weiguo said with a playful smile: "Uncle, I am the person who is greedy for power! Now in my dream, I want to go back to the steel rolling mill, fish under your hands, bring back the jade, and then spend all my life with colorful jade every day. Pile the kids to play!”
Hahaha, the whole family was amused by his showmanship and shamelessness. Even Sun Yumei, who was a little moody, also laughed.
She must not be happy! The only precious daughter, the mother and the mother have always been dependent on each other. They finally found the right husband, but they were transferred thousands of miles away just after they got married.
Although she has always been cold-tempered, Yang Caiyu has been away for more than a month, and she still has some emotions in her heart after all.
Du Weiguo could see that his mother-in-law was not in a good mood, so he comforted Sun Yumei and said:
"You don't have to worry about Caiyu. We just exchanged letters recently. Everything is fine with her and I can return to the factory after the Spring Festival.
If she hasn't been transferred back by then, I will go to Qian Province to bring her back. We would rather quit than be so separated from each other! "
Sun Yumei is a well-educated person. She smiled and said, "Xiao Du, you are still young. There is no need to rush. You have to take care of your career and family."
Du Weiguo curled his lips and shook his head vigorously:
"Absolutely not. I'm anxious. I want a child. Don't try to escape. We have already agreed that once Caiyu has a child, you have to help us take care of the child."
Sun Yumei was finally made to laugh by him: "Hahaha, you kid! You plan every day to let me take care of your children."
Aunt Li and Jiang Dongfang looked at each other and felt even more sorry for Du Weiguo. In fact, everyone knew it very well.
Du Weiguo should feel the most uncomfortable right now. He is alone, desolate and desolate, forcing a smile on his face.
Haha, if they knew that Du Weiguo was not alone at all, he was hiding his beauty in a golden house, and there lived a charming fox-eyed man in his house.
At this moment, they were eagerly waiting for him to come home. Will they tear Du Weiguo apart immediately?
After the sumptuous New Year's family dinner, Aunt Li gave Du Weiguo half a bag of frozen dumplings filled with pickled cabbage and pork, asking him to cook and eat them by himself.
If there is no space, Du Weiguo will really not be able to use this gift from Aunt Li. His small apartment does not have refrigeration conditions at all, so it cannot be placed in the corridor. But now, he is not polite.
After coming out of Jiang Dongfang's house, Du Weiguo let out a long breath. He was extremely tired after eating this meal. He originally said that he was sending his mother-in-law home.
But she and Aunt Li made an appointment with the old sisters to take a bath and watch a movie together in the afternoon, and Du Weiguo was also happy and relaxed.
As for Jiang Dongfang, he was a bit drunk today and had already gone back to his room to sleep after just a few drinks. He has been showing his age for more than a year, especially after Pang Baili's accident, he became even more unbearable.
Du Weiguo felt that today, the New Year, was extremely tiring, and he acted until his face was numb.
Tired.
Du Weiguo smoked a cigarette downstairs from his family before riding back to the rolling mill. Wang Yang and Bart were both on duty today, and Hao Shanhe was also on duty in the office. He happened to go to see the big guys together.
By the way, he also retrieved Yang Caiyu's letter. When he replied to Yang Caiyu's letter, he had already said that he would try to go back to the factory once a week to pick up the letter. Of course, he did not mention anything about his injury.
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Du Weiguo returned to his former office. The afternoon temperature was just right, the sun was shining brightly, and he felt warm all over his body.
Hao Shanhe was sitting on a chair and taking a nap with the little black cat as usual. When he saw Du Weiguo coming in, he just raised his eyes and said very casually: "Back?"
When the little black cat in his arms saw Du Weiguo, it just raised its head and glanced at him, and barked lazily, which was regarded as a greeting.
In such an ordinary moment, Du Weiguo's nose felt sore, his eyes became hot, and he almost shed tears.
At this moment, it is as if time has gone back and nothing has changed. How beautiful the peace once was.
It's a pity that everything can't go back to the past. Du Weiguo shook his head gently, calmed down his emotions, took a long breath, and said calmly:
"Well, I'm back."
Hao Shanhe sat up straight, put Hao Xiaohei on the table, lit a cigarette slowly, and then looked Du Weiguo up and down:
"What's wrong with you? Is the mission not going well? Are you stuck? Are you in a dilemma?"
Du Weiguo smiled and shook his head: "No, I just felt as if time had gone back, as if nothing had changed, and I sighed in my heart, Uncle Hao, Happy New Year, I came to see you! I miss you."
Hao Shanhe looked at him disdainfully and sneered:
"Tch! You kid, don't be fooled by nice things. What do you want from a bad old man like me? You obviously just miss your wife, right? Hey! Here you go, this is a letter from Yang Caiyu."
As Hao Shanhe said this, he took out two letters from the drawer and handed them to Du Weiguo. He was sure that Du Weiguo would come today.
Du Weiguo was already numb to Old Hao's ghost-like judgment, saying that it was just a basic operation and there was no need to be surprised.
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
Let me explain, the original 3 chapters were written about the repeated cases in Huihui Hutong, but they were released at 12 o'clock and were immediately blocked.
The content of Chapter 3 has turned into a paragraph, which is really frustrating and difficult to calm down.
I got so angry that I recoded three chapters.
Sorry everyone.
