After repeated attempts by Lao Yangtou and Tan, Yang Hua Mei and his grandson stayed at Yang Huazhong's house for dinner.

Originally, Mrs. Sun didn't plan to make too many dishes that night. On a hot day, she just made some millet porridge and made some salted duck eggs, peanuts and other things.

But because Yang Hua Mei and his grandson were here, Yang Huazhong privately discussed with Mrs. Sun that it would be better to have a good meal at night.

By the way, I invited the couple from the fourth house and Tiedan to come over and eat together.

Sun was a gentle and virtuous person, so when Yang Huazhong said this, she naturally agreed.

"Then what dish should we order?" Sun asked Yang Huazhong again.

Yang Huazhong said: "What vegetables are frozen in the well?"

Mrs. Sun patted her thigh and said, "There are mutton skewers! There are also some preserved eggs that Qinger sent over!"

"But there aren't many mutton skewers, only about seven or eight taels."

Yang Huazhong asked: "Is there any corned beef left?"

Mrs. Sun was stunned, "Oh, you didn't remind me, I almost forgot, there is corned beef, it's in the jar!"

Yang Huazhong smiled: "Isn't that enough!"

"That's right, I'm going to have to work hard for you on this hot day. I'll help you stuff the firewood!"

When Mrs. Sun saw that Yang Huazhong was really going to the backyard kitchen, she quickly pulled him.

"I don't need your help, I can do it myself. You go to the front yard to chat with dad and your fourth brother!"

In this way, Yang Huazhong was forcibly pushed back to the front hall by Mrs. Sun. Mrs. Sun herself grabbed her apron and went to the backyard kitchen.

After a while, Mrs. Liu also came over.

Mrs. Tan directly drove Mrs. Liu to the backyard to help Mrs. Sun cook.

"Don't eat ready-made food, hurry up and help your third sister-in-law cook!" Mrs. Tan said.

Mrs. Liu looked reluctant and pointed at Yang Huamei: "What about Mei'er? Why doesn't Mei'er go?"

Yang Huamei was a little embarrassed and stood up, but was grabbed by Ms. Tan and pushed her back down.

Mrs. Tan then ordered Mrs. Liu: "Go, Mei'er is a guest!"

Mrs. Liu was delighted, "I was invited over for dinner by my third brother and my sister-in-law. I am also a guest!"

Tan rolled his eyes with one eye.

Yang Huamei stood up again at this time, "Mom, don't say anything. Just watch Zhuang Zhuang for me while I go to the backyard to help third sister-in-law cook."

"Mei'er, it's such a hot day, why can't you take a break?" Tan said, with no concealment of the anxiety and distress in her tone.

This partial favor really made Mr. Liu crazy with jealousy!

She thought of her late mother. When she returned to her parents' house, her mother would also send her two sisters-in-law to cook in the same way.

My mother pulled me to sit on a stool and chatted. My mother took out the food that had been hidden for a long time and gave it to me quietly.

Even a few nephews and nieces were not given, and were sent to the door of the house to let them play elsewhere.

One time, a little nephew saw it through a crack in the door. He burst into tears and ran to the two sisters-in-law to complain, saying that grandma stuffed cakes for his aunt to eat and refused to give them to him...

Although due to human feelings that day, the two sisters-in-law did not have any conflict with my mother on the spot.

But afterwards, there must have been a lot of excuses, so that my mother became ill in bed, and the two sisters-in-law tried every means to evade the blame.

Looking back now, Mrs. Liu suddenly realized that it was herself, the sister-in-law, who had deceived the relationship between my mother and her two sisters-in-law.

At this moment, Yang Huamei put Tan's hand back, smiled, and said patiently: "Mom, I can't sit still here. On such a hot day, Sister-in-law must be hot and tired cooking alone.

"

"If I go over and help, I can eat faster and go back earlier."

When Tan heard Yang Huamei's words, they were indeed very pertinent, so the old lady hesitated and did not stop her.

Just then, Old Yangtou also spoke: "In that case, you can just let her help. This is the home of the third brother and the third sister-in-law, and she is not a distant visitor."

At this point, Yang Huamei hurried to the backyard to help.

When Mrs. Tan saw Yang Huamei going to the backyard, she would definitely not let Mrs. Liu go.

"Now, Mei'er has gone over to help now. What about you? Aren't you going?" asked Tan.

Ms. Liu still didn’t want to go.

At this moment, Yang Ruoqing came over again.

"Dad, I'm here to get something. Have you finished writing it?"

This time she didn't have the sound coming in before anyone entered the door like she did on the previous trip.

This time, she considered that Zhuangzhuang was in the house, and even though the poor child couldn't hear, she still entered the hall door first before asking.

Moreover, the voice was deliberately lowered.

Yang Huazhong raised his head, but before he could respond to Yang Ruoqing, Liu suddenly pulled out a wrinkled apron from his trousers pocket and tied it around his waist.

At the same time, she smiled and said to Yang Ruoqing: "Qing'er, you came just in time, you are eating here at night. I just walked in and was planning to go to the backyard to help your mother cook dinner!"

As soon as Mrs. Liu said these words, except for Yang Ruoqing and Zhuang Zhuang, who was asleep and had not yet woken up, everyone in the room looked at Mrs. Liu in surprise and disdain.

Mrs. Tan spat directly on the ground: "I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people!"

Old Yangtou also laughed dumbly.

Brothers Yang Huazhong and Yang Huaming looked at each other, and Yang Huaming smiled embarrassedly at Yang Huazhong.

Finally, he urged Mrs. Liu angrily: "Since you are wearing an apron, you are going to help third sister-in-law cook. Go quickly. Why are you lingering?"

Mrs. Liu understood what Yang Huaming meant and nodded quickly, "Okay, okay, I'll go right now. Qing'er, you have time to come over to the backyard kitchen and take a look at it later!"

Yang Ruoqing smiled at Ms. Liu, who then walked to the backyard.

After Mrs. Liu left, Mrs. Tan immediately said to Yang Ruoqing: "Don't believe her, it's all fake! She was not happy before you came. It's because she saw you coming. Hurry up."

I’m trying to please you!”

Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows. She knew this matter well and didn't have much to say.

Mrs. Tan was a little discouraged when she saw Yang Ruoqing's attitude, "Just protect your fourth aunt, she is lazy and you are pretending to be blind!"

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "Nai, if you are magnanimous, don't argue with my fourth aunt. At least she went to the kitchen in the end, right?"

Just go!

Tan snorted and turned away, not wanting to talk to Yang Ruoqing anymore.

Fortunately, Yang Ruoqing didn't want to discuss these trivial things with Tan, so she walked straight towards Yang Huazhong.

At this time, Yang Huazhong had already stood up, took out a pile of things from a large drawer behind the table, and put it on the table.

"The books are all written and there is paper money in them."

Yang Ruoqing looked at the thick stack of Hungry Ghost Festival sacrificial offerings in front of her. Each booklet was written neatly with a brush, including the names of deceased ancestors, and the ink marks had dried.

It can be seen that it was written a long time ago, and it was also air-dried.
