In the evening, just after get off work, the strong smell of human fireworks filled the city of Sijiu.
After Chu Heng handed over to Aunt Han, he went out to the grocery store first, picked up the braised pork head meat that he had ordered during the day, and then drove back slowly in the car.
Along the way, he kept sniffing like a dog. Whenever he passed a house, he entertained himself by guessing what the family's dinner would be based on the smell coming from inside.
"Packing cakes."
"Wotou."
"Hey, this is sorghum rice!"
"Hiss! Braised pork! This is a rich family!"
"Huh? You're not cooking yet and you're pulling the reins at this point? Are you so hungry? Oh, the door is ajar, that's okay."
The thief kept talking to himself like a lunatic, and it took a long time before he returned to Xiaolihua.
The chess stall at the entrance of the alley was still open, and a group of old men gathered together noisily, playing madly.
Grandpa was among them, and he was one of the players. He was sitting at the end of the chessboard. Behind him were three old men, spitting and supporting him.
Watching chess without saying anything is all bullshit in the eyes of these old men.
Chu Heng rode his bicycle and stopped in front of him. He said to the old man with a smile: "I'm having fun with you, grandpa. Let's go back after this meal is over. I guess it's almost time for dinner."
"Oh, that's it."
Grandpa turned his head to look over, nodded with a smile, then quickly turned back, picked up the chess piece and killed the opponent with a few crisp moves, and then stood up calmly amidst the sounds of regret.
The old man is well versed in the principle of keeping a low profile. As a new member of the gang, he has never dared to make a killing move. He was afraid that he would be too aggressive and the old men would not let him play in the future...
"Oh, Director Chu bought more! This pig head meat is really fat." At this time, a neighbor noticed the pig head meat on Chu Heng's hand and couldn't help but salivate.
It looks so oily and smells really good.
? ? ?
again?
Chu Heng had a question mark on his face. He glanced at his grandfather walking over with a cane, and felt funny in his heart.
This Northeastern dialect is so contagious!
It's only been half an afternoon. It will take another ten days and a half. Doesn't everyone have to be led astray in the alley?
Northeast style street in Sijiucheng?
"Let's go, Tsuneko."
Grandpa walked up to him at this time, said hello and walked back slowly.
An old man and a young man chatted all the way, and soon they returned to Courtyard No. 22.
As soon as he entered the door, Chu Heng smelled the strong aroma of food and quickly identified what dishes were there.
Scrambled eggs with garlic sprouts, shredded pork and soybean sprouts, braised crucian carp, purple crispy pork...
Um? Zhang Min is here too.
It’s a little breast-filled!
Chu Heng wrinkled his nose, tsk, this damn sense of smell!
After parking the car, the guy went to the kitchen to take a look, handed the pork head to Miss Ni, who was busy in an orderly manner, and then hurried back to the house to pour water and make tea, waiting for the guests to arrive.
He chatted with his father-in-law, grandpa, and Shen Tian for a while in the main room. After drinking tea, his second uncle's family came over first.
Chu Jianshe has been in a high position for so long and has developed an aura. He walked into the house with his wife and children, and sat down in front of the Eight Immortals table without saying a word. He naturally exuded the aura of a superior person. Unique majesty.
"The in-laws are here." He greeted Father Ni cheerfully, then turned to his grandfather with a concerned look on his face and said, "How is your health?"
Well, a mouthful of official accent...
"Thanks to you, I'm strong." Grandpa smiled and nodded.
The second aunt, who had started looking at the furnishings in the room after entering the house, came over and asked Chu Heng a little dissatisfied: "Hey Hengzi, why are all your furniture old?"
"You don't understand this, Second Aunt." Chu Heng turned around, hugged Chu Xue who threw herself into his arms, and said with a smile: "Don't think these furniture are old, but they have a unique charm. You Don’t you think my house is antique?”
"I don't see anything antique, the new one looks comfortable, and it looks awkward to make these rags." The second aunt obviously didn't appreciate this, she curled her lips and rolled up her sleeves and went into the kitchen to help with some work. .
"Brother."
Chu Xue, who was lying on Chu Heng's lap, was looking at the kitchen and drooling and asked him: "What delicious food have you made today? It's so delicious."
"Little greedy cat."
Chu Heng patted the little girl's butt lovingly, and said with a smile: "You'll know if you go and see it. By the way, I'm helping my brother taste it to see if it tastes good."
"Um!"
Chu Xuemei, who had had this idea for a long time, nodded vigorously with a smile, then got out of his arms and ran to the kitchen, ready to taste the food as ordered.
When Chu Qi saw it, he hurriedly followed him and ran out of the main room as if running away. Although he was also greedy, the main reason was that he felt uncomfortable in front of his elder brother.
The shadow has already been cast, and now his butt hurts when he sees Boss Chu...
"Chu Qi, come here!"
But Chu Heng didn't want to let him go. This kid had always been naughty. How could he care about him after finally meeting him?
Listening to the voice that seemed to come from hell, Chu Qi's face suddenly collapsed. He wanted to run but didn't dare, so he could only return to the main room with a slumped head, and came to Boss Chu in fear: "Brother."
"Why did you see me running? Did I get into trouble again?" Chu Heng stared at his little brother suspiciously, his eyes cold, and his palms even subconsciously touched the copper-tipped belt.
"No, no." Chu Qi shook his head hurriedly, so frightened that his two limbs trembled.
"Why are you panicking if you didn't cause any trouble?" Chu Heng frowned, turned to Chu Jianshe, who was chatting with Father Ni and the others, and asked, "Second uncle, has this kid been honest lately?"
"Ever since we beat him up, this time has been quite honest, but I don't know when the old disease will relapse." Chu Jianshe took a sip of tea and glanced at his frightened son with a look of disgust.
A cowardly egg bag!
Nothing like my kind!
"That's okay." Chu Heng loosened his belt in disappointment, raised his foot and kicked Chu Qi lightly, and warned with a bluffing face: "Continue to keep up with me, and don't fall behind in your studies, you know?"
"Yeah." Chu Qi nodded repeatedly, not daring to fart more.
"Hey, how many delicious things are you cooking? I can smell it outside."
At this time, the sister-in-law walked in from outside first, followed by Chu Heng's uncle Ni Chen, brother-in-law Ni Zhen and sister-in-law Ni Yinghua.
"Hey, brother and sister-in-law are here, come in and sit down, come in and sit down."
Chu Heng quickly stood up and went over to greet him. He touched his brother-in-law who looked at him with a complicated face, smiled, took out a cigarette and gave it to Ni Chen, and asked, "Why isn't my cousin here?"
Ni Chen took the cigarette and said with a smile: "She said she often eats at your place, but she won't come today. She went to the hospital to replace her mother. Our mother will come later."
"Then let Ni Zhen go and bring some food later." Chu Heng nodded when he heard this, and his evaluation of this man-in-law was a little higher. She is a very sensible woman, but she is a bit reckless.
At this time Ni Zhen was a little unhappy.
How come this person is so easy to use?
The eldest sister always ordered him around before she got married, and her brother-in-law often did the same after getting married.
What are you doing?
My brother-in-law is not a human being?
