41, after the fact
What are the plans for this child in the future? As long as he answers, he will naturally see something from it.
There have always been many smart children. Li Rui is almost seven years old after the New Year. When Zheng Tianqi was seven years old, could he calmly face the competition between people who have a relationship with the Yang family?
However, it is not easy for Li Rui to grow up in such an environment to achieve this.
"I hope to be my own decision in the future." Li Rui spoke.
At the beginning, he just thought that he would not be scolded tonight, but when he really entered the study and said a few words to Zheng Xianghong, he had a crazy idea.
He had many crazy ideas, but he never dared to take action in the end. Now he has done it again. Should he be as timid as before?
His grandfather must be a person who dares to bet and has luck. If there is such a person who secretly supports him...
He is still young now, and he does not intend to reveal the secret of rebirth, but he can find opportunities to learn all aspects of knowledge through Zheng Xianghong's relationship. If he grows up a little, he can start to operate it. The Zheng family now has a business with Zheng Xiaoqing on the surface, so he doesn't believe that Zheng Xianghong will not want some business in the dark! And if he has nothing in his hands, why can he let Zhu Yunxuan be with him in twenty years? Why can the Zheng family and the Li family accept his relationship with Zhu Yunxuan?
It was past midnight. In the past, Zheng Xianghong would always talk to everyone before midnight, and then open the door and set off firecrackers together. However, this time, Li Rui had been in the study for more than an hour, and it was midnight, but Zheng Xianghong had not come out yet.
At 0:00:05, firecrackers nearby sounded one after another. Zheng Xianghong finally took Li Rui away from the study. Both of them looked very good. Then, Zheng Xianghong took people to set off firecrackers without saying a word.
Li Rui is very smart. Even if Zheng Xianghong has seen many precocious children, he has to admit that Li Rui is one of the best. Such a child has been buried in the previous six years... no, it has been seven years now, and it has been buried in the previous seven years. What a pity?
However, it's still time.
Now the whole of China has changed a lot, and some people have also changed. Seeing that other families have long wanted to keep a backup plan, it was just because the Zheng family had fewer people and there was no way to do it. But now it is different. With his training and the help of some people, twenty years later, the third generation of the Zheng family can stand alone. The Zheng family doesn’t have to rely on one person to support themselves like now, and they can’t protect their daughter from being hurt by rumors, right?
Moreover, Li Rui was his grandson after all, with half of the Zheng family's blood flowing. He tried several times before, and the other party was not a cold-blooded person...
"Ruirui, your grandfather didn't scold you, right?" Li Yue quietly stepped back, then picked up his son and asked in his son's ear.
"No, what did dad and grandpa tell you?" Li Rui immediately asked back.
"I didn't say anything..." A hint of shame flashed on Li Yue's face. Zheng Xiaoqing was such a strong woman, but he hoped that she could be a virtuous woman like his eldest and second sister-in-law...
Those women who regard their husbands as the best as the best to follow their parents-in-law and only care for their husbands and children at home can never be as capable as Zheng Xiaoqing, and Zheng Xiaoqing will not help him wash his feet and do housework. Why did he hope that Zheng Xiaoqing, who made more money than himself, would obey his parents? That's fine, he has not been filial to Zheng Xiaoqing's parents for more than eight years of marriage...
Thinking of his heart-to-heart talk with his father-in-law, Li Yue sighed. From now on, he would go to see his parents, and he would have to come to see his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Because of the two things that Li Yue was very close to his father-in-law and mother-in-law in the next two, and even took in three meals and snacks before the nanny came back.
Li Yue’s cooking skills are actually not good, but after making them with care, the taste is always good. Most of the things he knows are southern dishes, and later he learned northern dishes because of Zheng Xiaoqing’s taste. The dishes he makes are very popular with the Zheng family.
He was soft-hearted and even Zheng Zhenhua's family, who was not very good to him at the beginning, was much more kind to him now. When the family left Beijing on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, almost everyone gave gifts.
This is the first time that Li Yue has been treated so warmly by the Zheng family. Before, even when he and Zheng Xiaoqing got married, they never got many smiling faces.
Of course, Li Rui received more gifts than him. Compared with the gifts, the recognition of Zheng Xianghong made him feel that the trip was worthy.
This time when they left Beijing, Zheng Xianghong specially invited two people to Wende Town, one of whom was a retired soldier, and the other was a knowledgeable old man who was criticized and injured one leg during the Cultural Revolution.
Zheng Tianqi knew that he could be both literary and martial, but before he was thrown into the military camp in his previous life, he could not hold his shoulders or resist, and he had never been treated like this.
Li Yue took their family to Hangzhou and met the Li family.
Li Rui's grandparents used to see him and Zheng Xiaoqing had no good expressions, but now they have a flattering smile on their faces.
Things in the world are impermanent, and in just half a year, too many things have really happened. And as long as you are willing, you can actually control your own destiny, right? Li Rui suddenly remembered what he said to Zheng Xianghong on the big day, and he said he wanted to be his own master.
There are few people in this world who can always make their own ideas. People are always influenced by others and inevitably go with the flow. In this life, they will no longer live their life in a daze like they did in their previous life!
When Li Rui finally returned to Shanghai, Zhu Yunxuan had just returned home after having dinner from his grandmother's house.
During the Chinese New Year, we inevitably have to visit relatives. The custom in Wende Town is to invite all guests to come to your house for a meal before and after the Chinese New Year.
More than ten years later, many wealthy families would invite chefs to borrow tables and chairs to go home and invite all the guests, commonly known as holding New Year's wine. Rich families would directly hold New Year's wine in a hotel. However, at this time, everyone cooked a table of dishes and invited guests from one or two families to come for a meal.
Although Zhu Ada still makes money, when everyone had dinner separately, it was similar to the family, so Zhu Chengcai had to invite all the guests to dinner one by one.
Zhu Ada has a younger brother, so it is not necessary to invite his family, but Zhu Ada's sister and her children are invited back, and Wang Feng'er's brothers and sisters and their children are also invited. In addition, Zhu Chengcai's sister and Jiang Yuexiu's sister are also invited... There are not many people, but Zhu Ada and Wang Feng'er's brothers and sisters have given birth to many. These children have grown up and started a family and have children. In terms of the number of people, they are really quite large.
There are only eight people sitting at the Eight Immortals Table at home. After all, everyone can be invited to be invited six times. When their family wants to invite people to dinner, others also have to invite them. From time to time, they will bump into each other, which will inevitably cause some chaos.
Zhu Yunxuan remembered the table more than ten years later. At that time, when everyone held New Year's Eve, there were many people with river crabs and abalone on the table, and the whole pig's trotters became a must-have. The chefs who invited would write the menu would be expensive and novel.
But at this time, the things that everyone has to deal with are much simpler, but there are still three meat dishes - chicken, fish, and pork.
Jiang Yuexiu collected a lot of shells left after eating jelly, then put them in small plastic shells and put them in a little water and beat them evenly. Finally, she put a little minced meat on it and steamed it, making jelly-shaped steamed eggs. Such things taste great when putting them in the soup.
In addition, add a piece of meat in the middle of the thick flour, water, and eggs, and use a spoon to scoop the fried chicken and yellow meat into the oil, wrap it on top and fry it, and keep it for sweet and sour pork ribs. Jiang Yuexiu has also made a lot of things like this.
Zhu Yunxuan actually likes the cooking skills of every household nowadays. At this time, the dishes they can eat are very distinctive, not only the original flavor, but more than 20 years later... there are only a few chefs nearby, and the food they can eat becomes the same.
Zhu Yunxuan went home on the back seat of Zhu Chengcai's bicycle. Now Jiang Yuexiu can't eat because she is pregnant and she is much more haggard. But there are still many things at home that she wants her to come, and Zhu Yunxuan doesn't want to be tired of her at all.
In the south, there are many men in the family who are in charge of the chefs, and Zhu Chengcai can also cook a few dishes. However, he likes to add soy sauce to cook and prefers to add more oil and MSG. It is really not the appetite of other people in the family, and he can't help but treat him.
"Mom, you ate a lot of dumplings today. Do you like it? Let's make dumplings when we go home!" Zhu Yunxuan's grandmother's house didn't have much money, so it was impossible to cook a lot of dishes. However, they dug out Malantou and shepherd's purse. The fried winter bamboo shoots of Malantou tasted very good. The dumplings with shepherd's purse pork were even more suitable for Jiang Yuexiu's appetite. Later, they almost gave her to eat them alone.
"I don't know why I can only eat meat dishes recently. A few days ago, I really wanted to eat cabbage, but I really couldn't eat it in one bite. No, I should say that when I was cooking, I wanted to vomit when I smelled the smell." Jiang Yuexiu felt very uncomfortable. She used to love everything when she was pregnant with Zhu Yunxuan, but now she can't eat anything with the baby in her belly.
Her mother asked her why she had a bad appetite, but she had to do it perfunctorily, after all, this baby was secretly conceived.
Zhu Yunxuan has been paying attention to Jiang Yuexiu's diet these days and found that she obviously doesn't like vegetarian food. No, she likes to eat things like shepherd's purse dumplings...
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxuan remembered some of his discomforts when he was just reborn. Now he only uses it at home. When he stir-frying water chestnuts with heavy color, he can cook water chestnuts to yellow, and the taste is heavier than salad oil...
"Mom, don't you eat vegetable oil?" If it's not necessary, Jiang Yuexiu is unhappy in cooking recently, and she often retching when cooking.
Jiang Yuexiu was stunned and realized that she didn't like lard, but now she eats lard bibimbap with more flavor than stir-frying: "Maybe it's really because of vegetable oil!"
"Then we will use lard to cook from now on?" Zhu Chengcai asked. He didn't mind eating lard. He adhered to the fact that it was cold quickly in winter and looked bad.
"I'll just use lard to make some dishes, such as stewing cabbage hearts with lard." Jiang Yuexiu spoke, and it's not the same thing to keep using lard.
"Mom, do you have salad oil now?" Zhu Yunxuan knew that every family grows rapeseed now, and in spring, there are only golden rapeseed flowers left in the fields. When they want to eat oil, they always took the rapeseed to the oil factory in the town to change it. Three pounds of rapeseed can be exchanged for one pound of rapeseed oil, so everyone got used to eating rapeseed oil, but at this time there should be salad oil, right?
"Yes, I'll go buy salad oil later. I heard that the oil is very light and tasteless," Zhu Chengcai immediately said, "You are pregnant and you need to eat more. Do you have anything you want to eat? I'll go buy it together."
"When I was in Huaiyunxuan, I wanted to eat this and that all day long, but I had no choice but to eat it. Until now, I don't want to eat anything." Jiang Yuexiu glanced at her flat belly, feeling helpless.
"This is great. Maybe you are pregnant with a girl this time!" Zhu Chengcai spoke excitedly. He already has a son and now he wants a daughter!
"It would be great if it was a girl. My sister-in-law was looking forward to having a son every day, so I wanted to have a daughter." Jiang Yuexiu smiled. She already had Yunxuan, and she would have a caring daughter. Moreover, the girl's clothes were beautiful, so she could dress up her daughter with a daughter.
"No, mom, I want my brother." Zhu Yunxuan interrupted. It was better for him.
"Isn't my sister good? I can take good care of her by giving birth to a younger sister Yunxuan. Haven't you always wanted Qiuyue to call you brother?" Jiang Yuexiu asked.
"Sister, I have Qiuyue one, it's enough. I want a younger brother, so I can play with me in the future." Zhu Yunxuan spoke immediately.
Zhu Chengcai suddenly felt something was wrong when he listened to his son's words. After thinking it through, he immediately laughed: "Boy, Qiuyue is your sister, so you are not allowed to call him sister in the future!"
