Fu Qianqian's eyelids twitched, and her heart burned with gossip: "Who is who? Aunt Liu or Aunt Wang? Last time I saw Aunt Wang winking at my dad. My mom was so angry that she didn't let my dad into the room at night. I heard that she always flirts with everyone she meets..."
Si Nian: "....I don't think it's them."
Fu Qianqian: "That is?"
Si Nian said, "I'm telling you, but please do me one thing."
Fu Qianqian frowned, "I won't do anything to harm the heavens."
Si Nian rolled his eyes at her: "Don't worry."
After that, she whispered a few words into Fu Qianqian's ear.
"You just need to find an opportunity to spread the words I told you to Lin Sisi's ears. By then, she probably won't have time to respond to me anymore."
After hearing this, Fu Qianqian's face was full of shock. She was shocked and excited at the same time. She originally planned to come over to have a meal but forgot about it. She hurriedly pedaled her bicycle and left, saying that she would definitely do it for her.
Si Nian returned home, burned charcoal in an iron basin, set up a small iron frame at the door, and prepared ingredients for a barbecue in the yard.
When the kids came home, hers had all the seasonings ready.
Spicy, sweet, all kinds of flavors are available.
Children can eat whatever they want.
Several children had never eaten barbecue like this, and they were very excited. They rolled up their sleeves and started grilling themselves.
The meat is sizzling with oil and spiced with chili pepper, which will make the greedy person's mouth water.
There has been a swine fever epidemic these days, and everyone has not eaten meat for a long time.
It was the rush hour after get off work and classes, and the children and adults passing by were all in a daze.
Fang Bowen, who was chewing bread next door, moved his nose.
Body fluids are secreted from the mouth instantly.
He subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Fang Hui opposite.
Fang Hui also wrinkled her nose, her food was tasteless.
She now regrets moving next to Si Nian's house.
Although he didn't have a good impression of Si Nian, Si Nian's cooking skills were really good.
You can always smell various aromas that hit your taste buds during meals.
They hadn't eaten pork for several days, and when they smelled the barbecue, they swallowed their saliva in dismay.
Now that there is swine fever, everyone is afraid to eat pork.
Buy chicken, beef and mutton instead.
But it is precisely because of this that vendors sit down and raise prices.
The already expensive meat was even more expensive than she could afford.
She came here to rent this house and spent a lot of money. Later, she hired a tutor for her son, enrolled in a cram school, and bought a radio.
Her savings over the years have been spent.
Thinking about her current difficult situation, Fang Hui lost her appetite even more. When she entered the study, she took out a pen and paper to write a letter.
…
Xiaolaoer and Jiang Jiu went out to show off with a large handful of barbecue skewers.
They stood and ate in front of this house, and which one stood and ate in front of them. When they arrived at the entrance of Tongzilou, the two of them stayed the longest.
The children who were kneeling and playing marbles in the Tongzi Building couldn't sit still, and all looked at them with covetous eyes.
Before, if Zhou Zehan had so many things in his hands, he would definitely come over to share them with them.
But ever since they heard that Da Zhuang didn't want to play with him, Zhou Zehan never gave them delicious food.
And there is no cake for them to eat on their birthdays.
Although the family conditions of the people in Tongzilou are not bad, they are not considered rich.
There are not many opportunities to eat meat.
Now because of swine fever, there is no chance to eat meat.
Smelling this smell, I swallowed mouthful after mouthful of saliva.
Immediately confused by the fragrance.
They regretted it. They should not have listened to Da Zhuang if they had known earlier. They should not have said that Zhou Zehan was a braggart and stopped playing with him.
Even if Zhou Zehan was really a braggart, he did bring them food.
Unlike Fang Bowen, although he is said to be a little genius, he is difficult to get along with. I have been here twice before, and I thought his family was rich and he would buy delicious food to share with them.
As a result, when they later heard Da Zhuang playing with him, he stopped coming and ignored them.
They lost their second brother and lost Fang Bowen.
They looked at the meat in Zhou Zehan's hands eagerly, but now no one had the nerve to step forward to ask for food.
After all, they had already spoken cruelly at the door of Zhou's house last time, and they would never play with him or Jiang Jiu again.
A group of children were extremely remorseful.
Zhou Zehan had enough of giggling, so he took Jiang Jiu home.
I was afraid that my brother and sister would eat up the barbecue.
As soon as they arrived at the door, the two children saw Fang Bowen.
Fang Bowen was lying behind the wall at the door of Zhou's house, seeming to be peeking at something.
The two of them followed his gaze in confusion and saw that what he was looking at was the barbecue in the yard.
"Hey, are you hungry? Here you go."
Zhou Zehanjiang handed over the barbecue in his hand.
Fang Bowen was startled and almost lost his balance.
When he turned around and saw Zhou Zehan and the others staring at him, his face turned red with shame.
Seeing the barbecue in Zhou Zehan's hand, he swallowed his saliva and said harshly: "Who, who cares about your meat? I'm not hungry at all, I just dropped something, yes, dropped something."
After saying that, he ran home with a flushed face and chaotic steps.
Zhou Zehan blinked blankly. It was the first time he saw someone offering meat and refused to eat it.
If it were him, he might be very happy.
He hurriedly ran home.
Seeing his elder brother skewering potato slices, he hurriedly ran over and said, "Brother, I want to eat potatoes too."
Zhou Zedong looked up at him and frowned in disgust when he saw his mouth full of chili oil stains.
She turned her back to him and said, "I made these for my mother. If you want to eat them, you can make them yourself."
Si Nian doesn't eat much meat and gets bored easily.
On the contrary, I prefer vegetarian dishes.
Especially potatoes and dried beans.
She loves to eat most.
The little boy didn't like to eat potatoes and dried beans before.
I think the meat is still delicious.
But since he ate the potatoes and baked beans made by his mother, he liked them very much.
When the fire was still burning in my hometown, I would put a few slices of dried tofu on the stove to roast, and dip some of the five-spice chili prepared by Sinian himself.
It was so delicious that he almost swallowed it with his tongue.
At the moment, my favorite things besides meat are roasted potatoes and dried beans.
This is also the classic food they prefer here.
Seeing that his brother ignored him, Zhou Zehan wiped his mouth, moved to the other side and knelt down to skewer himself.
Jiang Jiu also wiped his mouth, walked to him and squatted down, "Second brother, I will bake potatoes for you."
Si Nian came over with the roasted meat and said: "You two, don't touch the water. You will catch a cold if your clothes get wet later. Xiaohan, you and Xiaojiu will give these roasted meats to your grandma and grandpa Jiang." .”
The little boy stood up immediately and reached out to take it.
Swallowing his saliva, he hurriedly sent it to Jiang's house.
When he came back and saw his mother roasting potatoes, he immediately went over.
She said coquettishly: "Mom, Mom, I also want to eat potatoes."
Si Nian immediately smiled and said, "How many skewers do you want to eat?"
Xiaohan roughly counted on his fingers and said, "Ten skewers will be enough. Mom said eating too much will cause diarrhea, but I won't eat too much."
Ten skewers is not much?
This kid is like a hole in the sea.
I just ate so many meat skewers.
Si Nian found it funny, but let him go.
The child did not have good food before, but now he has made up for it.
At first, she was worried that the child would eat too much, be unable to digest it, or become fat.
But after so long, although Xiaohan has gained weight, he is not fat. Instead, his height has gradually increased.
Si Nian discovered that this child's frame was not generally large.
In less than two years, he is already bigger than his peers.
Jiang Chu looked exquisite and delicate next to him.
No wonder this child was able to grow to over 180 meters tall despite being malnourished in his previous life.
In this life, he must not be like his father, growing up to 190?
Moreover, he has loved sports since he was a child and has good health.
It's been a long time since the little guy got sick with his teeth. Although he caught a cold afterwards, he basically recovered the next day.
I have to sigh because of the strong physical fitness of these rural children.
On the other hand, Xiaodong.
Si Nian looked at his eldest son.
Xiaodong didn't change much, he just seemed to have gained some muscle, but his height didn't increase as obviously as the second child.
Still looking thin.
Si Nian was a little worried, whether the child was lacking something.
For example, calcium deficiency or iron deficiency anemia can lead to this situation.
It seems like I have to find time to take him for a checkup.
Otherwise, if this child is only 17 or so in this life, he will probably still be sad.
Si Nian also wanted them to grow to 188cm, the perfect height.
It would be more respectable to take it out by yourself.
Si Nian was thinking about this while grilling skewers.
"Mom, Mom, Xiao Jiang and I just went to Tongzilou to eat skewers. Xiaozhu and the others drooled when they saw us eating skewers, but I don't pity them at all."
The little boy stood next to Si Nian and said while rushing to help.
Si Nian smiled. This kid was quite vindictive. Xiaozhu's group came to make trouble on his birthday. Although the kid didn't say it, he already remembered it in his heart.
He regarded a few children as friends, was happy and sad for them, but ended up coming to cause trouble on their birthdays, and the second child was very jealous.
Si Nian said: "Then who do you feel pity for?"
The little boy thought for a while and said, "I feel sorry for Fang Bowen. I can see him doing homework every day in the study. He writes during the day, after school, at night, and during holidays..."
He said, shaking himself.
It's so scary. I used to think that my brother was studying every day, which was already scary.
Unexpectedly, Fang Bowen was scarier than his brother.
And his mother doesn’t know how to cook delicious food.
He met him in the morning and saw Fang Bowen eating dry bread.
Not tasty at all.
Unlike myself, I eat a variety of breakfasts.
After such a comparison, Zhou Zehan felt that although he was stupid, he was not as smart as Fang Bowen.
But he is much happier than Fang Bowen.
Thinking about it, the little guy couldn't help but have a rippling smile on his face.
Si Nian was stunned for a moment when he heard Fang Bowen.
This was indeed the case. Although Fang Bowen didn't see much, the child didn't seem to have much time to play. She also saw tutors coming every day, and Fang Hui also took the child out to make up lessons on weekends.
I don't go out usually, I mostly read my homework.
This kind of life is simply suffocating.
Then I heard the little boy say: "I just saw him hiding in front of our house. Fang Bowen must also want to eat barbecue. Mom's barbecue is so delicious. Everyone doesn't like it, but I gave it to him, but he didn't want it. He really Silly, you don’t want anything to eat.”
Si Nian was stunned for a moment.
She had met that child several times. Like Fang Hui, he was very aloof.
I didn't expect to do this kind of thing again.
After all, he is young and cares about face on the surface, but in fact he probably wants to eat.
Forget it, what does this have to do with her?
Si Nian shook his head and didn't think much about it. There was no way that Fang Hui would starve his own son.
**
When Fu Qianqian came home, she heard the aunts under the big locust tree in the family courtyard discussing the affairs of the Si family.
There are few divorces in family homes, and there is usually no gossip.
At this moment, someone suddenly got divorced, and it was the controversial Si family. Of course, this matter became a topic before and after tea.
Originally they were just discussing why the two wanted to divorce, but later Lin Sisi was released from prison, and the topic fell on Lin Sisi.
But at some point, it shifted to Si Nian again.
"Are you seriously ill? It's been so long and you haven't been discharged yet?"
"I heard that I had appendicitis and needed an operation. The other day, Lin Sisi came to me to borrow money and said she would work part-time to pay me back."
"Hey, it's pitiful to say that something like this happened just after he was released from prison. Lin Sisi didn't go home for long, but she didn't have a good two days."
"Yes, is there any need to borrow money like this? Her adopted daughter Si Nian has moved to the city. I've heard about it. She works as a foreign language teacher in a foreign language primary school. The man bought a big villa on Laodong Street. With this little money Can’t bear to part with it? Isn’t it too heartless?”
"People are very pushy now. Once you have money, you don't look down on others anymore. I heard that Lin Sisi was in jail. Originally, this matter could be kept private. Unexpectedly, she still refused to let her go after paying back the money. She insisted on sending Lin Sisi to jail. Go inside. The couple divorced, and she was behind the scenes. This girl is really cruel."
Seeing that the person was talking more and more exaggeratedly, Fu Qianqian's face darkened, she stopped her bicycle, and retorted: "Fart, that's not the case, I saw it all. Uncle Si divorced because Aunt Si had no morals, spoke for a trafficker, and was reported. Uncle Si just divorced her."
"I also saw that Uncle Si brought other women home, which made Aunt Si angry and sick. What does it have to do with Si Nian?"
"Lin Sisi stole the money herself, and you still speak for her. Be careful that she steals your money in the future."
After saying that, she snorted coldly, ignored the embarrassed expressions of the group of people, and rode away on her bicycle.
The expressions of the group of people were green and white.
So embarrassing.
Someone probably realized something and said in surprise: "Did Deputy Battalion Commander Si really bring a woman home? Didn't Lin Sisi say that it was because of what Si Nian and Deputy Battalion Commander Si said that the couple got divorced?"
"Speaking of this, I really remembered that the last time I passed by the battalion commander's house, I saw a woman washing his clothes at his door. But I heard that she was the sister of his nanny because the nanny was sick. Came to help her on duty..."
"No way, the battalion commander actually likes the nanny's sister. No matter how bad Zhang Cuimei is, she shouldn't find a nanny."
"Isn't that nanny Lin Sisi's friend? I heard that she was pitiful and she brought her home. Who in our compound can afford a nanny? I still remember that Battalion Chief Si's family was very luxurious."
"I also remember that she often made food and delivered it to the Fu family. She was quite pretty. I heard that she took her to the northwest with her before. During that time, her sister came to take care of the battalion commander..."
"Hey, we are alone, nothing happened. Why would the battalion commander be so anxious to get a divorce?"
When everyone said this, they looked at each other.
There was a bit of understanding in his eyes.
…
Si Nian now teaches English to children in gifted classes.
My son is in a gifted class.
If get out of class is over in the afternoon, we can go home together.
However, Si Nian did not plan to go home today, but planned to take the child to the hospital for a physical check-up.
See if Jian is healthy.
The little boss only went to the hospital once, and that was when Si Nian was pushed to the ground by Grandma Liu.
At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous when his mother said that she was taking him for a physical check-up.
Is there something wrong with your body?
Otherwise, why would his mother take him for a physical check-up?
He thought anxiously.
The two of them were holding Yaoyao and waiting for Zhou Zehan at the door. This guy was cleaning the house today and everyone was gone and he hadn't come out yet.
Si Nian looked around and suddenly noticed that a small figure was still there.
She looked over and saw that it was Fang Bowen.
Fang Bowen's face was not very pretty, a little pale.
Fang Hui must have been delayed today, but she hasn't come yet.
Seemingly noticing that his mother was not here, Fang Bowen bit his lip, glanced at them, and then went home carrying his schoolbag.
Si Nian frowned and just looked away. There was a snap, and when he looked again, Fang Bowen had fallen to the ground——
