"Are you crying?!"
Tan Jinxue blurted out and asked.
She was really taken aback by those two drops of water, and almost rushed over.
The big rooster succeeded in one blow, and wanted to peck again, but was blasted away by Tan Jinxue, and then he walked to the side of the two little hens to show off its beautiful tail feathers.
Zong Zi held the back of the pecked hand with the other hand, took a deep breath, and quickly wiped his face.
"No!" he said emphatically.
— and a little nasal.
Tan Jinxue couldn't help but bend the corner of her lower lip. She glanced at the back of the boy's hand, it turned red.
"Is the skin broken? I'll find you a Band-Aid if it breaks."
Zong Zi still had those two words, and deliberately said in a vicious voice: "No!"
Tan Jinxue turned around and went to the back room, and picked up the little fat man Xi Zheng who was covered in dirt all over the ground.
Standing under the eaves not far away, Jiang Xuan watched the frenzy just now, then glanced at Tan Jinxue who came over, and said calmly: "Mom has finished the meal, let them come in to eat. "
Tan Jinxue nodded, not caring about Jiang Xuan's indifferent attitude, she turned her head and said to the little fat man who was following: "Wash your hands and eat."
Zong Zi followed from behind.
Xi Zheng didn't know what an "earth-shattering" event just happened, and when he heard that it was time to eat, he rushed to the main room happily.
"I didn't cry. I'm just sensitive to pain." The young man explained in a low voice, and felt ashamed after he finished speaking, so he glared at Tan Jinxue, "You don't even understand!"
He turned around and stormed into the house.
Tan Jinxue raised an eyebrow.
From the pretentious Mr. President to the arrogant and coquettish little crying Baoer, the hero's personality has changed a bit.
The male protagonist in the original world seems to have followed the character design route from a sophomore boy to a mature wolf dog. She doesn't remember the plot where she is so sensitive to pain that she shed tears after being pecked by a chicken? ? ?
The dinner was arranged by Jiang Xiuhua herself.
White flour pancakes, four dishes, one scrambled eggs with shallots, one fried cabbage, one stewed tofu with cabbage, and one tofu soup.
Jiang Xuan didn't dare to sit down, she stood in the corner of the main room, looking at the steaming food on the table.
Except for Chinese New Year, the family seldom eats so richly.
Polished rice and white noodles are all eaten with coarse grains, and cooking four dishes at once is even more extravagant. Usually, the eggs at home are carefully collected and saved to sell at the fair. Jiang Xuan and Tan Jinxue can only eat a boiled egg if they come first in the exam, and Jiang Xiuhua is even more reluctant to eat it.
"Axue, Xiaoxuan, come and eat." Jiang Xiuhua warmly invited the two city children to sit down, and then said to Tan Jinxue and Jiang Xuan.
Under the light, the two city children had thin skin and tender flesh. They looked like water onions at the age of fifteen or sixteen. Both boys looked whiter than her girl, and Jiang Xiuhua couldn't help but feel a little sad. It was even more uncomfortable to see my two children still standing. Knowing that they were sensible, it was worth picking up a piece of pancake by myself and putting it in their place.
A total of nine cakes were baked, and when the three boys were officially growing up, each of them had two and a half cakes, Jiang Xuan had one cake, and Jiang Xiuhua ate half a cake by herself.
The pancakes at home are cut into four pieces, and eating small pieces seems to add some satiety.
But obviously, the two city children did not appreciate Jiang Xiuhua's painstaking efforts.
Fatty Xi Zheng is now doubting his life in front of the half pancake in the bowl.
—He has never eaten such a hard, bland, and strange-tasting pancake. There is almost no trace of oil on the thin pancake, and there is no taste when biting into it. Not only is it not soft, but it is also extraordinarily tough. He almost pulled it off the whole pancake by tearing it. a small bit.
The little fat man's face wrinkled into a ball.
Seeing Xi Zheng's expression, Zong Zi felt that something was wrong, but he looked at the brother and sister Tan Jinxue who were burying their heads in eating pancakes, and who seemed to cherish it very much, still took their share with the mentality of giving it a try.
—It took all the table manners he was taught at home to resist the urge to spit out what was in his mouth.
Tan Jinxue, who was sitting next to him, looked at him indifferently, as if she knew that he was hard to swallow, but she didn't say anything, and poured him a bowl of hot soup.
Zong Zi didn't react, he stared blankly at the bowl of soup with cabbage leaves and tofu dregs floating, and then watched Tan Jinxue tear her pancake into small pieces, soak it in her soup, and eat it quickly over.
The other party ate very fast, but it didn't make people feel rude, on the contrary, it made Zong Zi inexplicably feel a bit refined.
He shook his head to clear away the weird thoughts just now, imitating Tan Jinxue's appearance, soaking his pancakes into the cabbage tofu soup.
Jiang Xiuhua picked up an egg with chopsticks for each of Xi Zheng and Zong Zi.
Xi Zheng blinked, and finally said, "Mother Jiang, that, don't bring me food."
Jiang Xiuhua was puzzled, "You are all hungry after driving all day, why are you being so polite? You can't do it if you are starving!"
As he spoke, he put another large piece of tofu into Xi Zheng's bowl.
This child is chubby, how can he not eat more.
Xi Zheng watched the brown soup on the piece of tofu slowly flow to the bottom of the bowl, but couldn't help but ask, "Um...do you have serving chopsticks at home?"
His parents are both doctors, and his family pays special attention to hygiene. He has always had serving chopsticks for eating since he was a child, and he has never stirred a spoon in the same pot with others like this.
Jiang Xiuhua was taken aback. She reacted, and suddenly realized that this city girl despises herself.
Even if she was so enthusiastic about offering the best food in her family, even if she tried her best to make four dishes out of the only three things, it still caused people to suffer.
Sometimes the world is just unfair.
In the eyes of others, the happiness you enjoy so much may be more bitter than the entrance of Coptis chinensis.
Jiang Xiuhua froze in the action of serving Zong Zi's food, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward for a while.
Jiang Xuan glared at Xi Zheng, if eyes could eat people, this fat, talkative man would have no bones left.
Zong Zi didn't speak, and stretched forward with his own bowl, signaling Jiang Xiuhua to put the vegetables in his bowl.
Then he ate the scrambled egg with chopsticks in a natural manner.
Xi Zheng regretted so much, why couldn't he bear it? !
Tan Jinxue put down the bowl.
A sound that was neither light nor heavy made Xi Zheng, who was already a little terrified, tremble suddenly.
This rural kid is obviously the same age as him, but he is a full head taller than him. In addition, he only saw the other party's confrontation with Zong Zi at noon today and refused to give an inch. Fear.
He has always been timid, lazy and greedy, and can't bear hardships. Although he has no evil intentions and rarely causes troubles, he can't cure his lazy bones. He can lie down instead of sitting, and sit up without standing. The reason he was assigned to the show.
At first, seeing Zong Zi's strong personality and saying the same thing, Xi Zheng immediately became his younger brother, but now seeing Tan Jinxue's face darkened, his heart trembled again, and he shrank his neck and quickly thought about how to beg for mercy.
Unexpectedly, Tan Jinxue just stood up and took a pair of brand new chopsticks, and put them on the side of the dish.
"Use this as a side dish."
He added Jiang Xiuhua's order with his own chopsticks, and said, "Mom, this is the living habit of people in the city, and it's not that they dislike us."
Jiang Xiuhua hesitated a little, Xi Zheng immediately got off the donkey and said quickly, "Yes, yes, Brother Xue is right."
Zong Zi almost choked on a mouthful of soup.
I knew this guy was a piece of grass.
Tan Jinxue glanced at Xi Zheng with a half-smile, sat down and ate her own dinner.
She put down the bowl, and said to Jiang Xiuhua and Jiang Xuan, "I'll go out and see Director Kang and the others first."
There is a video camera in their room for dinner, and the other staff members are in the yard, and they eat the impromptu big pot meal in the village.
Kang Baiyu was wrapping up a coat and sitting in the van drinking soup, when he saw Tan Jinxue coming out, he hurriedly waved to him.
"Come on, is dinner ready?"
Tan Jinxue nodded, and then heard Kang Baiyu say: "Do you usually have any work at night at your house?"
With a flash in Tan Jinxue's eyes, she immediately understood what Kang Baiyu meant, and the corners of her lips curled up.
"There are two pigs at home, and we have to feed them in the evening."
Compaq Yu's eyes also lit up, and he patted Tan Jinxue on the shoulder, "Let's assign this job to the two of them." He tried not to laugh too badly.
Tan Jinxue nodded obediently.
"Have you finished eating? You have to work after eating, come with me."
The food wasn't delicious, and the two of them didn't eat much, Tan Jinxue saw that they didn't move their chopsticks anymore, so she spoke.
Xi Zheng blinked innocently: "Do you still have to work at night?"
Zong Zi sat there expressionless, "I protest!"
His indifferent look is exactly the same as that Mr. President that Tan Jinxue met in the last world.
Xi Zheng didn't have enough to eat at night, and he didn't do any work at home. When he heard that he had to work at night, he immediately complained.
But Zong Zi was assigned to this program because of his father's dissatisfaction.
He was born in a single-parent family in a military compound. His father was busy with work and didn't care about his studies at all. He didn't even know that he was sensitive to pain. He only felt that he was too delicate and lacked masculinity.
So Zong Zi grew up to be what he is now - with a mean mouth, a delicate body, and a disdain for both study and labor.
The whole young master with an extremely awkward temper.
"If you don't come, there will be no meal tomorrow." Tan Jinxue said.
Jiang Xiuhua was taken aback when she heard this, and wanted to persuade her son in a hurry. The children in the city are a little more squeamish, let them change slowly, it's not good to be overbearing like this.
My son said it was filming TV, and so many people were watching, what if everyone felt that the two children were wronged? !
Tan Jinxue shook his head at her first.
Now Jiang Xiuhua unconsciously regards the words of "son" as the standard, and regards him as the backbone, so she hesitated for a few seconds, and then swallowed the words that came to her lips.
Zong Zi raised his eyebrows and looked at her coldly, "Why?"
Tan Jinxue also imitated his tone, and said coldly: "Just because you are a member of this family."
"If you don't want to do it, you can, just go now, I'll count you as a getaway."
Zong Zi stood up with a "chuckle", and the stool legs rubbed against the ground making a harsh sound.
Tan Jinxue looked at him lightly, and actually smiled.
Xi Zheng felt that this scene was inexplicably familiar.
Twenty minutes later.
Tan Jinxue took Zong Zi and Xi Zheng to stand in front of the pigsty.
The pigpens and troughs built with simple bricks and stones can be seen to be cleaned frequently, but they still inevitably emit a peculiar smell. Two big white pigs paced boredly in the pen, grunting from time to time.
This was also Zong Zi and Xi Zheng's first time seeing a live pig that didn't appear in the form of a dish.
