The house with three bedrooms and one living room does not have a specially developed storage room, so other things are placed in this room downstairs. Now even if Zhang Chengchuan and the others live in, they will continue to put things.

"Mom, we're back -- are grandparents here?"

Wang Xuemei was preparing to cook dinner for her in-laws and brother-in-law, who had been running around, to eat. When she was about to go shopping, she heard her son's voice.

Wang Xuemei's eyes lit up, and she looked at her son with love, "Wei Guo, come here."

"Mom?" Zhang Weiguo was very puzzled, he handed his younger sister over to his younger brother, and then walked to his mother's side.

"Weiguo, go to the market and buy a chicken and a fish, and see if there are any bones or kelp, and buy some for me. Mom will make something delicious in a while." Wang Xuemei handed the ticket to me. Eldest son, let him go grocery shopping.

Wang Xuemei is not the kind of person who does not let children work, and there are not many parents who dote on their children in this era, especially Wang Xuemei. Since she was three or four years old she used to make them work and do whatever they could.

Since moving to the island, Wang Xuemei has often asked her sons to buy vegetables, pick up firewood, wash clothes, water vegetables, etc. In this way, brothers Zhang Weiguo and Zhang Anguo have become accustomed to working for several years.

Even though Zhang Weiguo wanted to talk to his grandparents and see if his uncle and aunt brought him something delicious, he still took the money to buy food.

Wang Xuemei asked her son to buy meat and fish, while she went to the yard to pick vegetables. Her yard grows tomatoes, cucumbers, pumpkins, and then beans, peppers, celery, leeks, lettuce, spinach and other vegetables, as well as sweet potatoes.

The sweet potato crop is very convenient whether it is grown to eat sweet potatoes or sweet potato leaves. It can be planted in any corner of the yard, and the sweet potato leaves that grow out are very tender.

When Wang Xuemei went to pick vegetables, Chen Xiayue gave her daughter to Zhang Chengchuan and the others, and then went with her mother-in-law to help her sister-in-law Wang Xuemei pick vegetables.

"Pick a few tomatoes, and I'll borrow some eggs from Sister Meng next door to fry them." Wang Xuemei looked at the red tomatoes on the shelf and said.

Chen Xiayue saw that the tomatoes were also growing quite well, although they were not as good as Liu Guiying's, they were almost the same. Wang Xuemei and Zhang Chengyue are both busy people. The vegetables grown at home are taken care of by the brothers Zhang Weiguo. It is not bad that they grow so well.

"Sister-in-law, the vegetables in your yard are growing very well." Chen Xiayue looked at the lush yard, and it can grow well even in winter.

This small island is in the East China Sea, and it is very cold in winter, but it is still possible to grow vegetables. Now the vegetables growing in the yard are also growing very well, but in winter, the green color can still be seen.

These vegetables are all growing very well. Although pumpkins and beans are almost out of season, the leaves are a little yellow, but some of the leaves are green, and there are some very small fruits, which should be It can take a while to wither.

Zhang Weiguo's speed is very fast. There is not much meat in the vegetable market now, but it is still possible to buy some bones, and he does not choose. Kelp is easier, he bought about two pounds of kelp and brought it back.

"Mom, I don't have any more chicken, so I bought two pounds of pork bones and two pounds of kelp. Uncle Ma sold this mackerel to me, but I grabbed it from a lot of people. Well, I saw Uncle Ma. There are still two kilograms of sixties on the stall, so I bought them too, shall we eat fried sixties today?" Zhang Weiguo handed a lot of things to his mother.

"I see." Wang Xuemei nodded with satisfaction, "Then go play with your younger siblings, mom is going to cook."

"Mother, you should also go to rest and have a good chat with Wei Guo and the others. I'll cook the meal." Wang Xuemei said to Liu Guiying.

"I'll play with Wei Guo and the others later. I'll cook for you. There are many people in the family." Although Liu Guiying really wanted to have a good relationship with her grandchildren, she saw that her daughters-in-law still didn't go out and stayed to help cook.

Wang Xuemei said it several times, but Liu Guiying and Chen Xiayue both helped her and handled all the ingredients for her to cook, and she did not continue to refuse.

"Cheng Yue went on a mission recently and hasn't come back. I don't know if he can catch up on New Year's Eve." Wang Xuemei said while cooking.

When Wang Xuemei was cooking, Chen Xiayue used a small stove and a casserole to make pork bone stewed seaweed soup, and did not speak after listening to Wang Xuemei's words. She still understands the military very well. Although she has never experienced a situation like Zhang Chengyue who obviously has a vacation but is called back to continue her mission, she has seen many such situations.

"It doesn't matter if he can't make it back. He is a soldier and has his own mission. We can celebrate the New Year with you and Wei Guo and his brothers and sisters." She didn't come back, but she also didn't believe that she couldn't see her eldest son before she left.

"We've all come here, so we must wait for Cheng Yue to come back and then go back. As long as you don't dislike so many of us disturbing you." Liu Guiying said.

"How could that be?" Wang Xuemei said with a smile, although it must be unaccustomed to say that there were five other members of the family of five members, but it was only for such a period of time, and it wasn't that they lived together all year round. Even if she is not used to it, she will not show her face.

Moreover, her parents-in-law are not the kind of superb parents-in-law, their parents-in-law are reasonable, and her uncle and sister-in-law are not the kind of people who like to make trouble. She feels that her family is already a very good family compared to other families.

Just like this year's Chinese New Year, it is not only her family whose parents-in-law came to celebrate the New Year together, and other military family members joined the army, and their family was very lively.

Wang Xuemei had seen how hard some old ladies were when they gave birth. She couldn't deal with that kind of old ladies anyway.

She has been grateful for countless times that although her mother-in-law looks very powerful, she is very kind to her daughter-in-law and is not the kind of person who likes to trouble her daughter-in-law.

The three mother-in-law and daughter-in-law worked together to make a relatively hearty dinner, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fried beans with meat sauce, fried sweet potato leaves, lettuce with oyster sauce, fried mackerel, stir-fried scallops, and pork bone kelp soup.

Wang Xuemei's cooking skills can't really be compared with Chen Xiayue's, but she is not the kind of person who doesn't touch the sun with her fingers. Her cooking skills are still very good. Although it is only the level of an ordinary housewife, she is also very good. good to eat.

Zhang Weiguo and his brothers and sisters have long been accustomed to their mother's cooking skills. Now they are very excited to see so many delicious food, especially with meat.

An Ning and Nuan Nuan, two little dolls who were only one year old, ate scrambled eggs with tomatoes and porridge, but did not eat egg custard.
