In the book, the female supporting role dreams of being an idle fish

Chapter 296 Brothers talk

Jiang Wen swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "Xiu'er is too soft. I have to keep her under my eyes."

"Looking for these in the family compound?" Uncle Cui put down his chopsticks for the first time.

"Everyone in the family compound is married, and those who are not married are unemployed, so we don't want them. Find someone who is more capable, but someone who Lixia and I can control, and who is compatible with Xiu'er."

"That's the mentality of an old father. Fortunately, there will be fewer unmarried people working at the factory next year, and since you'll be with me every day, nothing will go wrong."

"Everyone wants to find a good one, but where can we find one? Our unit is too far away, otherwise there would be a lot of outstanding young men. The 63rd Army is stationed in the southeast, near the train station, but the problem is, we don't know any outstanding officers. So, when I return to the unit, I will contact some comrades to ask around."

"I'm planning on having a few kids. I'm already holding four."

"I'm not pregnant yet, but if I do, I'll give birth. Finding an officer will protect the family. Are you planning to let the three Huainan brothers serve in the army?"

"Huainan is a serious person. He won't join the army. I'll buy him a job when the time comes. I'm afraid he won't come back. I can't say for sure about Huaibei. He used to be beaten to tears by Huaixi, but Huaixi is too young to notice."

"I'm giving in to Huaixi." Huaibei and Huainan were both awake, and the two brothers heard it through the aisle door.

"There are no brothers who don't fight. It's normal. The more they fight, the closer they become...it's the same for everyone." Uncle Cui's words made Cui Ze and Jiang Wen smile at each other.

"You two should discuss it among yourselves and don't create any estrangement. Xiu'er is grown up now, so ask for her opinion."

Jiang Wen was a little drunk. "I know. She's so sensible that it makes me feel distressed. Sometimes I also wonder why my mother didn't live a few more years. Xiu'er has such a personality. She has no friends since she was a child. Sometimes I'm afraid she will go to school and be bullied by her classmates."

"She's so soft. She's never had a fight, even with Huainan. It's fine. She'll let people know she's not easy to bully. She's quiet every day. If you don't ask her, she won't say a word. She's worried."

"If it were Huainan and the others, they would have kicked her and cried for a while, but when I was little, I thought Xiu'er was so well behaved. Everyone praised her, and the more she was praised, the more she behaved like this. I wouldn't be angry, even a clay figure wouldn't be like this."

"Lixia doesn't like to pry into gossip. If you don't tell me, I won't ask or listen. No one knows what she's thinking now. When I told her to arrange a marriage for him and Lu Yi, I neither objected nor agreed."

"Lixia is willing to take over. So I don't worry about her work. The problem is, it's just a blink of an eye. Once the New Year and her birthday are over, she'll be 16 already. If I don't rush, I'd be lying to myself."

"Over the past year or so, my husband and I have met quite a few people. It will be easy to find a job after Huainan graduates. Now we are just looking forward to Lixia having two boys in her belly."

"You're wrong. You have to look at how the family plans to use these girls. Look at those families with more daughters than boys. Don't they arrange everything thoroughly at home?"

Uncle Cui stood up when he got excited. "Even if they were born in the city, didn't many girls go to the countryside? And for those who didn't, wouldn't the job be passed on to their nephew after they got married? Do they really want that? That's their fate. That's what happens to people with bad luck."

Cui Ze stood up and said, "Dad, you are drunk. I will help you go back. Let's go."

“I’m not drunk…”

Jiang Wen also stood up and saw the Cui father and son off. The two of them walked away, supporting each other.

Jiang Wen closed the door, turned the pot around, sealed it, and locked the main room door.

Jiang Xiu also fell asleep.

When Jiang Wen returned to the room, Gu Lixia had already fallen asleep.

Jiang Wen had no plans to enter the space and planned to sleep outside.

The system did a good thing and let people in.

Jiang Wen saw the oranges on the plate in the living room. Half of them were peeled, leaving three.

Jiang Wen ate half of the orange, went to the kitchen to heat milk, took a pair of scissors, cut open the milk, and drank it in big gulps.

Soon, he finished a 200ml bucket of milk, then slowly inserted the tube and drank a bottle.

Throw it in the trash after drinking.

I went back to my room to wash up, lay down on the bed, and my mind became clearer and clearer.

He got up, went to see Gu Lixia, came out, grabbed a summer quilt, and slept on the sofa in the living room.

Gu Lixia already had the need to urinate at night. Seeing that Jiang Wen was not there, she asked the system and then went to sleep with peace of mind.

When I woke up the next morning and saw that Jiang Wen was not around, I was a little confused.

Wake up, get up and go to the toilet.

Wash up.

When I came out, I saw Jiang Wen sleeping on the sofa.

Go into the kitchen, heat the milk, and make crispy honey cake.

Beat the sugar and eggs and heat in a double boiler to 38 degrees.

Honey and maltose melt in water and can flow.

Then mix with egg liquid.

Beat the eggs with an electric whisk until the egg liquid does not disappear.

Stir in sifted flour and mix well.

Add peanut oil and mix well.

Pour into the mold and grease the mold to prevent sticking.

Sprinkle some sesame seeds on the surface.

Preheat the oven to 170 degrees for 13 minutes.

Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, sweet but not greasy.

Jiang Wen also smelled the scent.

Seeing that Gu Lixia had already prepared the meal, he quickly tidied himself and sat over.

After just one bite, I thought it was good, "It tastes almost like cake."

"This is also a cake, a small cake. Do you have a headache? Did you drink too much yesterday?" Gu Lixia swallowed the last sip of milk.

"I'm fine. I don't have a headache now. I drank two buckets of milk last night and ate the oranges you left for me." Jiang Wen answered while eating.

After dinner, Jiang Wen cleaned the kitchen.

Change clothes and go out first.

Gu Lixia went for a stroll in the yard and waited until Jiang Wen and the others had finished cooking before changing clothes and leaving the space.

Come to the main room and have noodle soup and sugared hemp leaves in the morning.

Gu Lixia ate a circle of sugared hemp leaves.

Go to work.

The meal on the eve of the Chinese New Year consists of beef stewed with potatoes, cold bean curd and black fungus salad, boiled fish balls, and dumplings.

Gu Lixia tasted everything, and after eating, she waited for Jiang Wen to return to the house, entered the space, and went to sleep.

Get up early on the 8th.

After breakfast, I had soy milk and boiled corn.

After coming out, Jiang Wen took out the meat pieces from the jar and then put in all the braised dishes he needed.

Eat braised dishes in the morning.

In the morning, Jiang Xiu took out her own braised dishes, and then sent Huainan to Aunt Cui's house to call Aunt Cui's daughter-in-law and help serve the food.

When Shen Jianan came over, she brought a pot of food, which also included tofu, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and cabbage.

The Jiang family just had some more mushrooms.

it's the same.

The Jiang family didn’t keep anyone this year, so they have to be careful since Gu Lixia is pregnant.

Gu Lixia only wants to eat fresh food.

Jiang Wen also cooperated and settled Jiang Xiu and Huainan.

When Shen Jianan finished braising the food and returned, Huainan brought back half a basin of braising soup.

Then he went to call Sun Tieniu from next door.

Then go and notify other families, those who have been asked before.

I braised the food all morning.

When I came back at noon, I had rice with braised dishes for lunch.

In the afternoon, after dinner, the other families who had been anxious for a long time continued.
