A few people brought the vegetables prepared by Ling Xue and Zhang Enhui back to Zhang Enhui's house next door. Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang had already steamed rice. Uncle Zhang was peeling garlic and Aunt Zhang had already started cooking.
There are many people in my family, so cooking is easy. Anyway, there is no need to worry about leftovers. We are all young people who can eat a lot, so one more bite from each person can make the whole house full.
Unlike before, his family is small, so he is afraid of leftovers if he wants to cook more dishes. Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang are now paying attention to their health and don't dare to eat too much. Xiaobao is young and doesn't eat much.
These days, Aunt Zhang finally feels that her cooking skills are useful, and she is full of energy when it comes to cooking time.
Several people returned to Zhang Enhui's house in a noisy manner. Uncle Zhang quickly took the vegetable bowls from everyone and said to them repeatedly, "You guys are really stupid. Why did you pick so many vegetables? It would be such a waste if you can't finish them all."
Aunt Zhang hurried out of the kitchen when she heard Uncle Zhang's words. She came over to take a look and thought it was a bit too much. "Vegetables are so expensive these days. You guys just spent hundreds of thousands of dollars!"
Ling Xue covered her mouth with her hands and smiled, then said to Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, "We don't lack vegetables at home. I'll grow whatever you want to eat. No need to save!"
Zhang Enhui has never quite agreed with Uncle Zhang's frugal attitude. She's not one to waste money, and for some reason her father always thinks she doesn't know how to manage. So she often retorts, "Eat as much as you want! Xiaoxue still feels it's not enough!"
Well, now Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang's gazes were focused on Ling Xue again. She racked her brains to come up with an excuse: "We may look like we have a lot of vegetables, but in fact, there are still many varieties we lack. At least we don't have any fresh mushroom dishes. I know Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang love to eat enoki mushrooms the most, but it's a pity that we don't have any mushroom bags!"
Hearing Ling Xue's words, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang immediately shifted their focus: "Yeah, fresh mushrooms are hard to find these days!"
Ling Xue breathed a sigh of relief, finally not nagging them about the waste issue anymore. She continued, "That's right. Sister Xiaohui knows you two like to eat fresh mushrooms, so she asked Brother Zhou Kai to find some mushroom bags. I heard they're almost there. I'll grow them for you then, and you can have as many as you want!"
Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang were very touched: "He is a filial son. You are all good children!"
Uncle Zhang snorted slightly. His silly daughter was quite sensible!
In fact, he wasn't really dissatisfied with Zhang Enhui, he was just angry that she didn't understand the ways of the world. How could it be so difficult for Xiaoxue to live alone? She finally found a way to make money, how could she pick up so much at once? Didn't she know how to refuse?
Of course, he also knew that Xiaoxue was a generous girl and would not care so much, but their family couldn't bully others, right?
Zhang Enhui admired Ling Xue for this and easily resolved Uncle Zhang's nagging. If she had done it herself, there would definitely have been a quarrel.
It wasn't as if she didn't know the problems between them, but the way she and Uncle Zhang interacted was already ingrained and couldn't be changed overnight. Even after a new life, there were many things she understood but still found difficult to express.
Hey, take it slow!
Xiaobao, this clever little guy, hid aside and only showed up quietly after the storm was over, constantly winking at Ling Xue!
Seeing him peeking out like a little mouse just out of a hole, Ling Xue smiled secretly and walked over quietly to match his behavior.
"What's wrong?" Ling Xue asked in a low voice.
"Move it to my room!" Xiaobao pointed to the two pots of strawberries at his feet and said to Ling Xue.
"Okay!" Ling Xue replied in a low voice.
The two of them quietly carried the strawberries away!
In fact, everyone knows about their interaction, but because they seem to be having so much fun, everyone pretends not to know so as not to embarrass the children.
