She asked Xie Zheng to scoop a scoop of water and pass the cold water when the dumplings are out of the pot. This way, even if you eat it a little slower, the dumplings will not stick together.

"Ningning, we won't make up for the lessons tonight. Let's continue on the day off."

Xu Ning looked up at him, pursed his lips and nodded with a chuckling, "Look at Brother Zheng."

Seeing her gentle and quiet smile, Xie Zheng's heart seemed to have become much quieter.

I reached out to take the plate and said, "I haven't eaten the dumplings made by Grandma Yu for a long time. I'll have to eat more tonight."

Xu Ning pursed his lips and smiled: "You can eat as much as you want, there are many packages tonight."

It’s not that she exaggerated the words, it was really a lot of the quantity. Yu Chunhua should have refined all the meat with oil. The amount of meat residue was not enough. The cabbage and leeks were added to enhance the flavor. Mixed together in a predetermined ratio, it can not only retain the aroma of the meat residue but also absorb the greasy feeling inside. Yu Chunhua has always been very perfect. Xu Ning has eaten it several times since he was a child.

Of course, because it used to be a big pot rice, I could only get meat at home during the Chinese New Year. However, I received a lot of red meat, and most of the white meat was left in the big pot stove in the team to refine oil.

Everyone had a great time eating this meal, and Xu Ning was praised by them, saying that with such good cooking skills, he would definitely find a good family in the future.

She didn't feel embarrassed. She was single for forty or fifty years in her previous life, and naturally wanted to meet a man who could live with her for a lifetime, so as not to be displaced and lonely, and not to have nowhere to live in old age.

After seeing off Xie Zheng's family, Xu Ning helped Qin Xuejuan clean up the dishes and then went back to the room to rest.

As for homework, let’s leave it until tomorrow. There is no desk at home. I just cross my legs on the windowsill or lying on the kang to write. If my posture is not right, I will be particularly tired. I will be so busy that my back is sore and I will have no energy to study.

Early the next morning, Xu Ning slept for a rare time. When he opened his eyes, the house was very quiet, without the old lady's muttering. It seemed that they had already gone out.

As the weather gets hotter and hotter, the wheat in the field begins to turn yellow and the harvesting days are getting closer and closer. It won’t take long to take their school for a holiday. The last short holiday before the summer vacation is the wheat holiday.

After getting up and washing up, she went to the kitchen to find something to eat and was about to start doing her homework, but she heard a loud noise outside.

Before she could react, she saw a short-haired woman wearing coarse cloth clothes, with a big blue bag on her elbow, a little boy in her hand, and a dirty little girl following her, who was dragging her nose and dirty, came in. As soon as she entered the door, she shouted "Mom" at the top of her throat!

No one heard a response. The woman looked at Xu Ning, who was standing in the yard and dressed in a clean and decent manner, glanced at her, grinned and showed two rows of yellow teeth, and smiled, "Oh, are you Ningning? Why don't you know your sister-in-law?"

"My sister-in-law?" Xu Ning was shocked.

It’s not a fault for not knowing Xu Ning. In her childhood memory, her sister-in-law was a woman dressed in decent clothes, and her hair was always neatly taken care of. Who would have thought that she suddenly became so...sloppy and sloppy after not seeing each other for many years.

Moreover, why did she suddenly come back this time? Xu Ning remembered that she had only seen her once, and there was no news since then.

"It's not that. It seems that you really don't know me anymore. I haven't been back for five or six years." Xu Chunmei put the bag in the corner of the main hall, moved out a stool and sat down, and hugged the youngest son beside her on her lap, "Where are your breasts?"

"I don't know, maybe I've gone to the field." Xu Ning saw that Xu Chunmei didn't care about her daughter at all, so she had to take a small stool and handed it to the little girl, "Why are the little sister coming? It's almost harvesting wheat."

Xu Chunmei opened her mouth, as if she felt that there was nothing to say with Xu Ning, the little girl, and changed the topic and said, "It's nothing, why haven't you gone to school?"

"It's not Saturday today, we won't go to class." She looked at the little guy in Xu Chunmei's arms. She looked about two or three years old and looked white and tender. Unfortunately, she didn't look good. There was no place like Xu Chunmei. She should look like his father. On the contrary, the girl next to her looked good, but it was too dirty. Judging from her condition, she should have been snot all year round. Xu Ning also found that the girl's sleeves were black and the stains on it were dry and hard. To be honest, her stomach was a bit churning.

When she noticed Xu Ning staring at her, the little girl's expression suddenly became more restrained. She looked at Xu Chunmei secretly. Seeing that her mother's eyes were a little irritable, she was so scared that she shrank, and her eyes were filled with fear.

"My sister-in-law left early in the morning. Have you had breakfast?" Xu Ning didn't know where to find the old lady, so she had to greet Xu Chunmei in person at home.

"What are you eating? We started leaving before dawn. This order has just arrived. I was so tired that my legs were circling around. What food can I eat at home?" Xu Chunmei was not polite, and she carried her son to the kitchen casually.

Xu Ning stood up and followed the mother and said, "The rice porridge stewed by grandma in the morning, as well as the leftover dishes and dumplings last night, are all cold now, so let's heat it up again."

Xu Chunmei opened the cabinet and saw a few dishes inside. A hint of drool appeared on her face, "No need to be hot, the weather is so warm now, just eat cold."

"The child's belly is delicate, and it's not good to eat cold food. There are sparks in the stove. My sister-in-law, you are waiting outside and it will soon become hot." I don't know what happened to Xu Chunmei when she came back, and she had no reason to hate the other party, so she naturally would not do anything rude.

Xu Chunmei originally wanted to say something, but after glanced at her son in her arms and then looked at her daughter, she did not refute Xu Ning's words.

My daughter is old and there is nothing to eat cold food. Xu Ning is right. My son is still young and has a delicate belly. He can't eat cold food. Anyway, it's only a dozen minutes, and she can wait.

"Why are you standing stupidly? Why don't you go to cook for your sister?" Xu Chunmei walked out of the kitchen and saw her daughter standing stupidly at the door. She was immediately angry and scolded her.

Xu Ning was startled by this sudden throat. Looking at the little girl who was crushed with her toes and was cramped all over, she felt a little uncomfortable.

She now knows the reason why her sister-in-law became like this.

"My sister-in-law, don't ask her to help. I'm fine with burning the fire. You have been away for several hours and are very tired. Just sit and wait."

"Oh, Ningning is becoming more and more sensible." Xu Chunmei's words and deeds were quite a deliberate flattery.

Faced with an elder talking to her with such an attitude, Xu Ning didn't know how to respond, so he could only nodded slightly stiffly.
