Chapter 8; Fish Soup(1/2)
"By the way, I will borrow the large rubber basin from Wumi's house and cover the old turtles at night, otherwise they will definitely run away."
"Okay, I'll go now."
When Wang Zhen told him, Wang's father was not angry, but happily brought up a big carp and went to do it.
Wang Zhen’s father is an honest man, and he knows that he has no opinion.
Because Wang Zhen has been smart since childhood, most of the time, he would ask Wang Zhen for his opinions when doing things.
Therefore, even if Wang Zhen ordered him to do things, Wang's father was not angry.
Because he knew that his son would do this, he must have his own reasons.
"Well, it's time to go and see your fifth master when you have time."
Seeing Wang Zhen do that, Grandpa Wang said with satisfaction.
It’s rare for young people to go out for so long, but they still remember the elderly at home.
...
In winter, the sky is short and the night is long, and the daytime passes quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the sky turned dark.
Smoke was rising from the stove and fire houses of each family, forming various shapes in the sky.
Then, it dissipated again when blown by the wind.
"Wow! It smells so good!"
In the stove fire room with smoke emitting cooking smoke, Wang Zhen said while sucking his nose.
"Haha, it's almost done. The little kid eats more later."
Dad Wang lifted the lid of the pot, looked at the rolling fish in the pot, and said with a reminder.
"Well, I haven't eaten my mother's meal for a long time, so I must eat more."
When Wang Zhen heard this, he said with certainty, and his saliva was almost gone.
"Wow, it smells so good! Mom, what meal tonight?"
At this moment, Wang Liang's voice suddenly came from the yard, and footsteps followed closely.
"Brother, let's cook fish soup tonight!"
When Wang Zhen heard that his brother was back, he hurriedly walked out and raised his eyebrows and said.
"Fish soup, haha, you must drink two more bowls tonight."
When Wang Liang heard it was fish soup, he showed a look of jealousy on his face.
Fish is really a rare thing for rural areas.
After all, not many people can catch fish, and those at home are unpaid and reluctant to buy them.
Even if you want to eat meat, most of them buy some pork. Few people buy fish. Many families eat fish so few times a year.
Perhaps, only during the Chinese New Year will those who are reluctant to let go of fish and taste it generously.
Although Wang Zhen’s family is not too poor, Wang’s father and Wang’s mother, who like frugality, have not bought fish for at least half a year.
This is the most painful thing for Wang Liang, who loves to eat fish.
"Hehe, okay, mom? I can't wait!"
As he said that, Wang Liang entered the stove room and headed straight to the stove platform.
"It's not done yet, I'll get out."
When Wang's mother, who was burning fire, saw Wang Liang's appearance, rolled her eyes helplessly and said.
"Hehe! I'll open it and see if it's familiar."
When Wang Liang heard this, he couldn't wait to open the lid of the pot, picked up a pair of chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.
"You are a dead baby, and you don't wash your hands. You will eat it when you come back. Your brother hasn't eaten that yet?"
Seeing Wang Liang's appearance, Wang's father glared and cursed angrily.
"Okay, mom! You can eat it."
When Wang Liang heard his father scolding him, he was not angry, but instead announced with a smile.
"I'll help my brother to succeed first."
After saying that, Wang Liang took a spoon to help Wang Zhensheng fish soup.
He knew that his status at home was not as good as his younger brother.
However, he was not jealous at all.
Although others are a little confused, they are better than anyone else in their younger brother.
"Go, go and wash your hands first! Then call your grandparents to come and have a meal, and the house is warm."
At this moment, Dad Wang rushed over and waved his hand to send Wang Liang away.
"Xiao Zhen, I'll help you succeed first."
As he said that, Wang Daddy Wang took a bowl full of fish without waiting for Wang Zhen to refuse, and handed it to Wang Zhen.
"No, Dad! Let's have this bowl for grandpa! I'll eat it later."
Seeing this scene, Wang Zhen refused with a laughing and crying refusal.
When he was not here.
Grandparents in the family have the greatest generation, so let them first.
As soon as he was there, because of his favor, he liked everything at home.
But grandparents had the biggest backup, and they didn't even eat it. Of course, Wang Zhen didn't dare to eat it. Besides, his parents didn't eat it either! It was his turn there.
This is what Wang Zhen thinks.
"It's okay, I'll serve them later, you can eat it first."
Dad Wang dissuaded and handed the bowl to Wang Zhen.
"Yes! Let's eat first."
When Wang's mother saw that Wang Zhen was not eating, she also persuaded her to come.
"No, let's talk about it when grandparents come."
Wang Zhen said stubbornly.
"Oh well!"
Seeing that Wang Zhen could not be told, Wang Dad had to put down the bowl and serve the second bowl.
After Wang Dad finished serving the meal, Wang Zhen's grandparents also came to the stove room. Behind them, Wang Liang followed in with two chairs behind him.
"Grandpa, come and eat fish."
After the two old men sat down, Wang Zhen quickly brought a bowl of fish to his grandfather.
"Okay! Good grandson, you can eat it too."
Grandpa Wang took the fish with a smile and said.
"Give it to grandma."
When Wang Liang saw this, he also brought a bowl of fish and said as if he was like this.
"Okay, Liangliang is also good."
When Grandma Wang saw it, she happily took the fish bowl and praised Wang Liang.
"Dad, you eat first."
After giving the chopsticks to the two old men, Wang Zhen handed the largest bowl to Wang Dad.
"Okay, then Daddy will eat first."
Dad Wang took it with relief, his eyes full of relief.
Wang Liang, who was on the other hand, looked at it, quickly found a bowl of good ones and handed it to Wang's mother.
"Mom, you eat first!"
"No, Liangliang, you eat first! You can eat it quickly, little kid."
Mother Wang refused. She was used to eating later and was a little uncomfortable with her son's filial piety.
When Wang Liang saw it, he stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do.
"Brother, just eat it! Mom, you can eat this bowl."
Seeing his brother's appearance, Wang Zhen said as he handed one of the bowls to his mother to help him get rid of the situation.
"Yeah, eat it all."
