Chapter 51 Let's Eat

   "What if there is no money?"

   "If you have money, you can buy more, if you have no money, you can buy less. Courtesy is light and affection is heavy, understand?"

   "I know Daddy."

  It was already past noon when the two returned to Tianshui Town from Xinghua Village. Yuan's family was not hungry at all, so they bought a pack of dim sum at the dim sum shop and went directly to Qiao's house.

   That house is now owned by Qiao Mai, so naturally it is Qiao's house.

  The courtyard door was ajar, and he could tell someone was there by the sound, but he still knocked on the door.

  Fengyun and Yunfeng came to receive him, "Uncle, who are you looking for?"

   "Is Mrs. Qiao there? I'm here on invitation."

   It was the first time they met each other, so naturally they didn't know each other.

   "My mother is busy in the kitchen, please come in."

  The two little guys let the father and son in warmly and politely. Chuan'er was happy to see his older brother.

   Busily got off his father, followed Fengyun and Yunfeng to ask this and that. .

   "Little brother, my name is Chuan'er, how about you?"

   "Fengyun, Yunfeng, my mother gave it to me."

   "I'll come and play with you when I'm bored in the future, okay?"

   "We don't play, we have to help mother do things at home."

   At this time, Qiao Mai was picking his head in the kitchen, "Brother Yuan, sit down, they will all be here soon"

   "Well, you are busy, leave me alone"

  Feng Yun brought a bench for Yuan Jiaqi, and Yun Feng brought him a bowl of water.

   "Uncle, I don't have tea at home, so I just use plain water, is that okay?"

"sure."

  Chuan'er drooled when he saw the fruit on the table, Brother Fengyun hurriedly brought him a stool.

   "Come on, Brother Chuan, sit here and eat Guoguo. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't be full. My mother is cooking delicious food, so you have to save your stomach for dinner, you know?"

"Uh-huh"

  Thinking of what Mrs. Qiao told him earlier in the morning, now that she saw the two children, she naturally fell in love with her.

  Seeing that the two brothers, no matter how they speak or how they treat others, are very decent. They have only been with Mrs. Qiao for half a month, and they are so sensible. It seems that Mrs. Qiao is really not simple.

  So he found a branch in one corner, which attracted Fengyun and Yunfeng.

   "Can you count?"

   "Yes, mother taught us the formula in this passage."

   "Then you can recite it to me,"

  Fengyun and Yunfeng were immediately in front of him, reciting neatly.

   "Yes, I'll test you."

  He took a branch and wrote arithmetic problems on the ground. They could answer the simple ones, but not the difficult ones.

   But it's okay, after all, it's not bad to be able to reach this level.

   Let them take the enlightenment book to the school again, they can memorize it, and they know all the characters in it, but they can’t write it. Even if they use a branch to write on the ground, they can’t write well.

   Once you have the bottom line in your mind, it will be easier to teach.

  Here was teaching, the courtyard door opened, Chen's mother and son came, seeing a man in the courtyard, Chen half bowed his head.

  Yuan Jiaqi hurriedly got up, "Ms. Chen is polite."

   "Brother Yuan is too polite."

  The two Fengyun brothers rushed over, "Hello, auntie, hello little brother, welcome to my house."

   "Good boy"

   hurriedly grabbed a handful of jujubes from the basket he was carrying.

   "Come, eat dates."

   "Thank you, auntie, sit here, auntie."

  Qiao Mai scratched his head in the kitchen and laughed, it's nice to have a son.

   "Sister Chen, sit down first,"

   After a while, Chen Hao also joined in the math problems. Seeing Yuan Jiaqi teaching the children to recognize and count the math problems, Mrs. Chen quietly stood up and came to the door of the kitchen.

   "Ms. Qiao, are you going to let him teach your son?"

"yes"

   "I heard that he doesn't even seem to be a child?"

   "Those are all false names, the truth is what you have in your belly. You haven't seen his good handwriting. If you have, you won't say that."

   "Why not send it to the town school?"

   "They won't accept it anymore."

  Qiao Mai didn't want to talk so much with Chen Shi, and always felt that she and her didn't reach that level, they were just neighbors.

   "My Hao'er is eight years old, and I want him to go to school too."

   "It happens that Brother Yuan comes to teach the children every morning, so let Hao learn with him. There are only four children in total. Give the children enlightenment first, and then it is not too late for you to let him go to school."

   "What about Shu Xiu?"

   "You don't need to give it, it's all on my side."

   "Then what a shame."

   "When you celebrate the New Year, just give Big Brother Yuan some gifts."

   "Then I'm in your favor again?"

   "Let's do it. I'd like to let Sister Chen do it. To tell you the truth, it's better to have more children. If you have friends, you will have a different personality than a child without friends."

   "Is there another saying?"

   "Of course, there are more children, play together, know how to help each other, unite and love each other, a child is too withdrawn in character, it is not easy to get along with the group, and it will have an impact on the future children's relationship with others."

   While Qiao Mai was busy with the work in hand, he was talking to Mrs. Chen when another group of people came in at the gate of the courtyard.

   "Aha, we're coming to eat,"

   Mrs. Chen hurried forward, "Hello, Sister Lu"

   "All good, all good, hey, this is Mr. Yuan."

   "Hello, shopkeeper Lu."

"well."

   "There are so many people today, I like the excitement."

  With so many women, Yuan Jiaqi's face was a little hot. He took the children and moved to a corner where they were out of the way.

   Seeing that everyone was present, Feng Yun went to lock the courtyard door.

   In the kitchen, Qiao Mai didn't need their help. He just asked them to set up a table in the courtyard and just sit and wait.

   One dish after another was placed on the table, and the children didn't have any mental arithmetic, and they kept swallowing around the table.

   What kind of dishes are these? Why haven't I seen it? The people who came were all grumbling in their hearts.

  The father and son, who hadn’t eaten at noon, started to growl their stomachs. Fortunately, no one heard them, otherwise they would have died of embarrassment.

   Seeing that there were not enough benches, Mrs. Chen moved some of them home. After Yuan Jiaqi saw it, he kept it in his heart.

  If you have time, make a few and send them to Mrs. Qiao.

   When the last dish arrived on the table, Qiao Mai shouted at everyone.

   "Come on, come on, come on, sit down, today is the full moon festival, let's toast to celebrate."

   All the little ones sat down obediently around the table. Qiao Mai hugged a jar and poured a bowl of water and wine for the adults. She also prepared for the children.

   Pressed the juice with fresh fruit, and a bowl was full in front of one person.

   "Come on, raise your glasses, I wish you all a happy Luna Festival."

   They touched each other, raised their hands, and the first bowl was dry.

   Qiao Mai doesn't care whether they do it or not, she did it anyway.

   Shopkeeper Lu looked at Yuan's bowl, "Your bowl doesn't seem to be moving?"

   "Yuan is too strong to drink, so he usually doesn't drink alcohol. He only took a sip just now."

   "Hey, what a nice man."

  Yuan Jiaqi regretted coming here. There are still girls on the table who have not left the cabinet. He is a bit sloppy here as a man.

  Ru Xin and Ru Yi didn't think much of it, they had seen all kinds of people, so there was no embarrassment when there was a man at the table, they just ate their own.

   At this moment, Qiao Mai made a rescue.

"I invite everyone to come here today. One is to have fun during the holidays. The other is to celebrate my household registration. The third is that from now on, my two sons will be enlightened with Brother Yuan every day, and Chen Hao and Chuan Er will also be together. , at my house."

   "If it's not convenient, it's okay to stay with me."

"There are too many people over there, and the children can't calm down to learn. Just stay with me. It happens that I am not at home during the day, and we are not so particular about small families. You don't have to take it too seriously. I'm afraid Those who are talkative and talkative, don’t be afraid of the shadow, just do your own thing well.”

   After finishing speaking, Qiao Mai was stunned, because only she and the Yuan family were talking, and everyone else was immersed in cooking.

  Seeing the dishes on the plate disappearing, "Then what, Big Brother Yuan eats the vegetables first, and I'm going to eat all the dishes I made today. No pretentiousness is allowed. It's a serious matter to eat and drink enough."

  Even Mrs. Chen, who usually speaks in a low voice, started eating sullenly at this moment.
