The Beautiful Stepmother from the Eighties: Marrying a Factory Director to Raise Kids Chapter 195
Zhou Yueshen looked cold.
"Next ti. I'm busy tomorrow."
"What's the matter? Are you going to have dinner with your sister - in - law and the others?" Yu Dong rolled his eyes and said, "You can go after dinner. Anyway, you have a motorcycle. It'll only take us a little over an hour to get there. Let's go together."
Zhou Yueshen ignored him. "Let's talk about it later."
Yu Dong: "..... Then can I borrow your motorcycle?"
Zhou Yueshen finally lifted his eyes and glanced at him. "Not tomorrow."
Yu Dong: "What? You're not going, and you won't even let the motorcycle go?"
Zhou Yueshen stood up, his voice cold. "Yes, I need to haul sothing."
...
The next day.
Si Nian got up early. Thinking that the kids said they wanted to eat dumplings and tangyuan, she got up early to prepare the minced at.
There was no shortage of at at ho, so Chinese cabbage and pork filling was a must - make.
But too much pork could be greasy, so Si Nian also stir - fried so chives and eggs.
The minced at needed to be chopped and marinated to taste. Thinking that there were many n in the family and they all loved at, Si Nian cut a large piece of well - marbled streaky pork.
After cutting it, she added seasonings like scallions, ginger, and garlic, and then put the stir - fried Chinese cabbage in and mixed it.
Making the egg filling was even simpler.
Si Nian kneaded the dough. Thinking that the second youngest said he still wanted to eat tangyuan, she poured out so glutinous rice flour and kneaded so small tangyuan.
There was no sesa at ho, so she couldn't make sesa - filled tangyuan.
But there was rice wine, so she could still make rice wine and small tangyuan.
Zhou Yueshen hadn't co back yet. Si Nian planned to cook the tangyuan for the kids as breakfast first and wait for Zhou Yueshen to co back before having dumplings.
Zhou Zehan and Zhou Zedong got up early in the morning and said they wanted to go collect firewood.
There was still so firewood at ho, but not much.
Si Nian didn't stop them. She served two bowls of rice wine and small tangyuan for the two of them and cooked two sweet wine eggs for them.
Kids at this age all loved sweet things. Now they gobbled up several at a ti and finished a bowl in no ti.
Yaoyao was still asleep, so Si Nian didn't go with the two brothers.
The two kids, thinking about the dumplings, set off in a hurry.
Si Nian cleaned up the kitchen and rolled the dough into small pieces.
Finally, she called Yaoyao to get up and have breakfast.
Just after breakfast, she heard the sound of a motorcycle outside.
She walked out and saw Zhou Yueshen's motorcycle parked at the door, and there were thick wooden boards tied to the back of the motorcycle.
Si Nian was a little confused and quickly walked towards Zhou Yueshen and asked, "What are these for?"
Zhou Yueshen untied the rope, removed the wooden boards, and casually threw them at the entrance of the yard.
"To install a bathtub for you."
Previously, Si Nian had said that she wanted to buy a bathtub because it was inconvenient to use a basin.
Zhou Yueshen had found a carpenter, and now he just needed to install it himself and they could use it.
Si Nian was imdiately surprised and said excitedly, "It's for the bathtub. I almost forgot about this."
She had casually ntioned this to Zhou Yueshen before, but then she forgot about it herself. Anyway, this was the condition in the countryside, and taking a bath was a luxury.
Plus, Zhou Yueshen was busy, so she didn't ntion it again.
Unexpectedly, he still rembered and had been arranging for it?
Zhou Yueshen looked at the materials in his hands. Hearing this, his eyes swept over to her. "The previous carpenter was sick, which delayed a lot of ti. I made you wait so long."
Si Nian quickly shook her head. "How could it be? You've gone to so much trouble. You're so busy, and yet you're still doing all these things for . I'm really embarrassed."
Zhou Yueshen raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her.
"Being polite to ?"
Si Nian lowered her eyes. She looked very good today. With the excitent, her cheeks were a little red, and there were glimrs of light in her eyes. She looked very beautiful.
She t Zhou Yueshen's dark eyes, and her cheeks felt hot. Rarely, she felt a bit shy. "How could I be polite to you..."
Zhou Yueshen stared at her blushing cheeks for a while, and a gentle look flashed across his eyes.
Then he withdrew his gaze, picked up a wrench, and started installing.
"Let help you."
Si Nian was very happy.
She could take a bath freely in the countryside, which was definitely very happy for soone like her who loved to enjoy life.
Not to ntion, it was winter now, and she was afraid of the cold. As soon as the weather got cold, her hands and feet would easily get cold.
Being able to take a bath was definitely one of the greatest joys in life for her.
Si Nian quickly squatted down to help the man.
However, these pieces of wood were all over the place. She didn't know what kind of wood they were, but they were very heavy.
They felt of very good quality.
The patterns were also very beautiful. Obviously, it was sothing that could only be made by a skilled craftsman.
This man even bought such a delicate bathtub?
She raised her eyebrows. Although she didn't understand, it was still convenient for her to hand things over on the side.
Zhou Yueshen didn't stop her, and the two of them quietly got busy.
After a while, Yaoyao, who hadn't been seen going into the house, ca running out clattering in her cute cotton slippers.
Seeing the two of them busy, she also wanted to help.
With her chubby little hands, she struggled to carry a wooden board and handed it to Zhou Yueshen. "Hoo - ya!"
Zhou Yueshen glanced at his little daughter, who was staggering while holding the wooden board and could hardly stand still. His eyes softened, and he cooperatively took the board with his big hand.
"Yaoyao is so aweso."
Getting the praise, Yaoyao beca even more energetic in carrying the wooden boards.
She ran back and forth. No one knew exactly what she was busy with.
Si Nian watched this scene with a smile. The big one and the little one were quite a sight.
Dahuang stood on one side, watching the whole family busy and indicating that he also wanted to play.
Its tail wagged very fast, and its front legs jumped up and down, which really worried the kids.
Si Nian felt sorry for it and walked over, stroked the dog's head, and untied Dahuang's chain.
Dahuang imdiately ca over and sniffed around the wooden boards, as if it had slled sothing good.
Zhou Yueshen worked very fast. Although there was no blueprint, the man didn't seem to care at all and easily installed it.
Si Nian was amazed.
Sure enough, there was a reason to let n do so jobs. Anyway, she simply couldn't understand this kind of thing.
Seeing that the man had finished, she quickly got up and went to the kitchen to prepare to make dumplings.
Zhou Zedong and Zhou Zehan ca back last. Each of them carried a large basket of dry firewood on their backs and held a bunch of wild vegetables in their hands.
Seeing the smoke curling up from the chimney at the door and Zhou Yueshen's motorcycle parked there, Zhou Zehan's eyes lit up. "Great! Dad's back. Now we can make dumplings!"
After saying that, he quickly ran inside.
Zhou Zedong didn't say a word, but he also quickened his pace.
"Mom, mom, wait for !"
When he entered the house and saw the large portion of minced at on the table and slled the fragrance of eggs, Zhou Zehan's mouth watered. He rushed over quickly. "I'll go wash my hands right away, mom. Wait for . I'll make dumplings with you."
After saying that, he quickly ran into the kitchen to wash his hands.
Zhou Yueshen just walked out of the kitchen. Seeing him being so hasty, he frowned and said, "Run slowly."
