Chapter 224 Don't be jealous, don't be jealous
After buying the beef, Gu Nan rode his bicycle back to the village with Su Niannian in tow.
When we arrived at the village, it was only noon, and we could still make it home for lunch.
Outside Gu Nan's house, Su Niannian took a lot of fresh vegetables from her spatial storage and put them into her basket.
The vegetables produced by Lingquan Space are much better than those sold in the market or grown in one's own private plot.
When Gu's mother asked, she simply said that she bought it in the county town.
As soon as they entered the courtyard, Gu's mother came out of the kitchen.
"You two are back just in time, the food will be ready soon." Mrs. Gu said to the two of them with a smile, holding a spatula in her hand.
Hearing the noise, Gu Ningning also ran out of her older brother's room.
He hugged Su Niannian tightly.
"Second sister-in-law, what should I do? You've only been gone a few hours, and I'm already missing you!" Gu Ningning said to Su Niannian with a grin.
Su Niannian smiled and patted Gu Ningning's head.
"Really? Actually... I don't miss you at all!" Su Niannian teased Gu Ningning on purpose.
As it turned out, Gu Ningning wasn't fooled at all.
"I don't believe it. Second sister-in-law must miss Ningning too." Gu Ningning's expression didn't change at all as she continued to hug Su Niannian.
"Okay, I was just going to tease you a bit." Su Niannian smiled.
At this moment, Gu Nan had already parked his bicycle and taken the basket off his back.
On top are some candies, melon seeds, and snacks.
Gu Nan immediately shoved the object into Gu Ningning's arms.
"Second brother, do you not like me hugging your sister-in-law?" Gu Ningning was stuffed full of things by Gu Nan.
Helpless, he had no choice but to let go of Su Niannian's arms.
"..." Gu Nan didn't say anything, but it was obvious that he was slightly, just a little bit, jealous.
Fortunately, she was his own sister, otherwise Gu Nan would have been extremely jealous.
Su Niannian, now free, smiled happily.
He pulled Gu Nan and walked into the kitchen.
Gu Nan was still carrying a basket on his back.
Once they reached the kitchen, the two of them took the contents out of the baskets.
"Wow, you bought so much stuff?" Gu's mother was somewhat surprised.
It contains beef, as well as fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, green beans, eggplants, peppers, and other vegetables.
There's quite a lot of stuff.
"We have these things in our own plot of land, why did we spend money to buy them?" Gu's mother asked, looking at the things she had taken out.
At her age, although she doesn't interfere with the younger generation's spending, she still hopes that the money is spent on worthwhile things.
For example, Gu's mother wouldn't think anything of buying meat, but she felt it was a waste of money to buy vegetables from their own garden.
"Mom, have a tomato and see if it's good." Su Niannian smiled and washed a tomato for Gu's mother.
Gu's mother took it suspiciously and took a bite.
I was just about to say, they're all tomatoes, does that mean the ones you buy taste better?
As a result... the rich tomato juice spread throughout my mouth.
It was unbelievably delicious.
I feel like none of the fruit tastes as good as this tomato in my hand.
"How can this be so delicious?" Gu's mother seemed to understand immediately why Su Niannian had bought this tomato.
It's so delicious, completely different from what I grow at home.
"Mom, don't worry about the money. This is all money I earned from treating other people. We earn money so that you can eat and dress well," Su Niannian said with a smile.
Gu's mother smiled too. Su Niannian was such a filial child.
It's really great.
"It's not that I don't want you to spend money, I'm just worried that you'll spend it recklessly. I'm thinking that you can save more money while you're young, because there will be even more expenses when you have children," Gu's mother explained.
She didn't earn the money, and she's clear-headed, so she won't interfere with young people's spending habits.
At first, I felt that since we already had it at home, it would be a waste to buy more from outside.
But now, these vegetables are so delicious, so they bought them without any intention of restraining Su Niannian.
Su Niannian naturally knew this, and she was truly happy to have such an open-minded mother-in-law.
Su Niannian hugged Gu's mother, "Mom, thank you for being so understanding of me." Su Niannian felt the long-lost maternal love from Gu's mother.
"Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about? You're so good to me, in my heart you can do whatever you want."
"Your mother loves you." Gu's mother smiled lovingly and then hugged Su Niannian.
Gu Nan carefully put the things he had taken out away.
Then he sighed helplessly. His little girl was just too adorable; everyone loved to hold her.
Thank goodness it was my own mother and sister; if it had been someone else...
That definitely won’t work!
Su Niannian, of course, had no idea what Gu Nan was thinking.
Otherwise, Su Niannian would have said she wanted to hug Song Zhaodi, Widow Wu, Aunt Zhou...
Haha, the main theme is about a man who's infuriating.
With Su Niannian joining them, lunch was quickly prepared.
Gu's mother steamed some wild vegetables and cornmeal buns for lunch today.
I also made stir-fried wild mushrooms with meat and a cabbage and tofu soup.
Because Su Niannian bought cucumbers and tomatoes, she made scrambled eggs with tomatoes and smashed cucumbers.
Soon, everything was served.
After Gu Nan asked his older brother, his brother said that his leg was not in much pain anymore and he also wanted to come to the yard to eat.
So, Gu Nan carried his older brother into the courtyard.
Because his legs couldn't bend, they placed another stool under his legs.
"Is this cucumber? I've never had such delicious smashed cucumber before!" Gu Ningning exclaimed, her eyes wide as she savored the crisp and refreshing smashed cucumber in her mouth.
"Right? They're sold in the black market in the county town. I think they're pretty good too," Su Niannian said with a smile.
Gu Zhendong picked up a piece of scrambled eggs with tomatoes and thought it tasted better than what he usually ate.
It's so delicious, it's almost intoxicating!
"Good ingredients are one thing, but the main thing is that your younger brother and sister-in-law have excellent cooking skills," Gu Zhendong also praised.
"What? Is your mother's cooking not good?" Gu's mother said jokingly, then tossed a wild vegetable bun to Gu Zhendong.
"Delicious, delicious!!" Gu Zhendong was stunned for a moment, then quickly replied to his mother.
It seems like my mom has gotten younger lately, and her personality has become more cheerful.
He's starting to make fun of himself...
But that's also a good thing.
As a result, everyone at the table laughed.
"Come on, Niannian, eat more." Gu's mother smiled and put a lot more eggs on Su Niannian's plate.
Su Niannian smiled happily, and the family enjoyed their meal together.
Gu Nan took a sip of cabbage soup, took a big bite of steamed bun, and had a deep smile on his lips.
These days are truly wonderful.
It's so nice to be together as a family.
After finishing lunch, Gu Nan habitually went to wash the dishes.
Gu's mother wanted to go over and help tidy up the kitchen, but Su Niannian beat her to it.
After everything was tidied up, Gu Nan told Su Niannian that he wanted to go for a walk in the fields and then find an opportunity to visit the village chief's house.
