    ?

    Yi Xiaomei's stomach is more than seven months old, and everyone in the town says it is round, so it must be a boy.  Mrs. Ma was very happy to hear such speculation.  She believes that the eyes of so many people who have been here must not be wrong.  Seeing Yi Xiaomei go to work in a garment factory with such a big belly, she felt distressed.  Although the family was separated, Ma Juyuan was away all year round, and Ma Dafu also went out to work. Granny Ma had lunch alone.  In the past, Yi Xiaomei always brought rice to the steamer in the factory to heat it up.  Now Mrs. Ma is thinking that she can't let her grandson eat overnight, so she volunteers to cook for Yi Xiaomei.

    Since it is a meal specially cooked for the grandson, of course it can't be done as it is when I am alone. It takes a little effort to justify it.  As a result, people in Qingquan Town can see Mrs. Ma going to the vegetable market with a basket in her arms every morning.  When she walked around the vegetable market, what she often talked about was: "Oh, my daughter-in-law doesn't like this dish. I need to buy some fish. My wife likes fish, like a cat."

    When I came to Yan Heping's fish stall, I would always say: "Mr. Yan, help me pick a fresher fish. It must be fresh, and the taste of half-dead fish is completely wrong. My wife's mouth is so tricky!"

    Yan Heping is easy to talk, always smiling and saying: "Don't worry, the fish here are all fresh from the morning."

    Weighed the fish for her, and when she asked her if she wanted to kill it, she said without hesitation, "Of course I will.  It was broken, and it was extremely bitter. Our Xiaomei didn¡¯t eat a bite, and a fish was wasted like this.¡±

    Xiao Zhou helped her kill the fish, and when she watched her leave, she would always complain a few words: "Sometimes you say you want fresh ones, and then you kill them again. Isn't this contradictory?  Kill before the pot."

    Yan Heping said: "She just wants people to see that she is dedicated to taking care of her daughter-in-law. Listen to her, why are you fussing with her?"

    Xiao Zhou said: "Xiaomei is Jingchen's older sister, and I'm arguing for her. She didn't eat a few bites of the dishes, and her reputation fell outside. The dishes she didn't buy were all the dishes her daughter-in-law didn't like, and she spent more money.  It's also because my daughter-in-law has a tricky taste, if Xiaomei knows that she promotes herself like this every day in the vegetable market, I will definitely die of anger."

    "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, why do you care so much?"

    Yi Xiaomei knew that she had a tricky taste from Sister Liu in the factory.

    It was lunch time that day, and she was pushing her bicycle and was about to go home for dinner when she happened to meet Sister Liu.  Sister Liu squinted her eyes and smiled when she saw her: "Go back to eat?"

    "yes."

    "You are really lucky. My mother-in-law thinks of ways to cook delicious food for you every day. I never cultivated such a good mother-in-law."

    delicious?  Yi Xiaomei thought to herself, it depends on how it is defined.  The food her mother-in-law cooks is not to her liking. She likes spicy food, but the mother-in-law firmly believes in sour and spicy food, and put some vinegar in every dish. It seems that as long as she eats enough sour food, a boy will definitely be born in her stomach.  But no matter how unappetizing it was, after all, it was someone's kindness, otherwise I would have to eat overnight.  Thinking about it this way, Yi Xiaomei felt that she should be content.

    Sister Liu saw that she smiled and didn't speak, so she opened up the conversation: "Although you have separated, your mother-in-law can still take care of you like this. It's really not easy. It's not like my mother-in-law.  Generally, I don¡¯t do any work, and I have to go back to cook every day, and I have to buy vegetables. You said that we go to work at 7:30, and we have to make breakfast when we get up in the morning, and we have to take care of the children for school. How can we have time to buy?  Vegetables. But she was stunned because she didn't understand you, and it was my fault for talking too much. It's really more angry than others!"

    Yi Xiaomei said: "I think there are two sides to everything. Although it is a bit hard to buy vegetables, you can choose your own taste after all. It is also very good to buy what you like."

    Sister Liu nodded: "That's true, how many people in the world can understand your taste like your mother-in-law."

    Yi Xiaomei admitted that her mother-in-law ran to the vegetable market early in the morning to cook for her these days, but she refused to admit that she knew her taste.  She has been embarrassing her taste for a long time.  She smiled wryly.

    Sister Liu said: "I ran into your mother-in-law when I went to the vegetable market this morning. I originally persuaded her to buy a grass carp. I know a kind of grass carp that is delicious to cook, but she said you don't like grass carp.  .¡±

    "I don't like eating grass carp?" Yi Xiaomei knew her preference for the first time.

    Sister Liu said: "That's right. I heard from your mother-in-law that your taste is quite tricky. Is it because of your pregnancy?"

    "Butmaybe."

    She got on her bicycle and went home.

    &nbspGranny Ma sat at the door of the newly built house, and there were old ladies sitting around in the yard. When she saw Yi Xiaomei, Granny Ma stood up immediately: "I won't chat with you anymore, the dinner is back."

    Several other old ladies looked at Yi Xiaomei with a smile: "Xiaomei is really lucky, your mother-in-law changes the way every day to make delicious food for you."

    Yi Xiaomei could only reserve her opinion on this change, smiled perfunctorily, and entered the room.

    When the dish was served, there was a big fish head with burnt tofu, but unfortunately the fish head was burnt to pieces, and the tofu turned into bean curd residue.  The key is that the soup is still brown.  She guessed that she must have put vinegar again.  Stir-fried green vegetables, the leaves of the vegetables are burnt yellow.

    Mrs. Ma said: "I heard that the fish head needs to be boiled on a low fire for two hours to get the flavor. I put it on the coal stove and boiled it for two full hours. You can try it."

    Yi Xiaomei took a sip and said sourly, "Why is it sour?"

    "I put some vinegar."

    As expected, it's just this sour taste, how could it be a little vinegar?  Yi Xiaomei lost her appetite.

    Seeing that she only ate, Mrs. Ma was not very happy: "Eat more food, you are eating for two now."

    "I know."

    "You know why don't you eat more? Look, people can gain dozens of catties when they are pregnant. I think you are similar to when you were not pregnant."

    Yi Xiaomei felt that for the sake of her child, she should express her attitude. It doesn't matter if she feels wronged a little, and she can't wrong the child in her stomach.

    "Mom, can we not put vinegar in this dish from now on?"

    "Sour and hot girl, it's good for you to eat more sour food. When I was pregnant with Juyuan, I liked to eat sour food." Granny Ma said with a smile.

    Yi Xiaomei saw that the road was different, so she had to find another trail: "I won't come back for dinner starting tomorrow."

    "Why?" Mrs. Ma looked in disbelief.

    "The factory is busy, and running around is a waste of time."

    Except for three meals a day, Mrs. Ma spends the rest of her time wandering the streets. Could it be that she doesn't know the current situation of the garment factory?  The old ladies who often chatted with her also had daughters-in-law who worked in the garment factory. They all said that the garment factory hadn't received any orders recently, and they were about to fart.

    She immediately realized that it was Yi Xiaomei's excuse for not wanting to eat the food she cooked.  With a straight face, she asked coldly, "Is it because the food I cook doesn't suit your taste?"

    Yi Xiaomei was startled, seeing that her mother-in-law's expression was not right, she knew she was angry.  How could she say this, if she really did not become a real white-eyed wolf because the food was not to her liking?

    She forced a smile: "No, it's because the factory is busy."

    "Busy? No one else is busy, but you?" (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
