Life is a Game

After eating 5 steamed buns, Zhao Mei looked like a newborn, cheered up and began to introduce Jiang Feng and others to her husband, and also introduced her husband who was a passerby to Jiang Feng and others.

Zhao Mei's husband is from Jin Province, a standard northern man, tall and big, and standing with Jiang Zaide is not inferior, he is a strong man in line with the aesthetics of his uncle and grandpa.

Now the strong man is stuffing the plastic bag containing the buns into his pocket, helping his wife destroy the evidence of stealing.

Seeing her cousins ​​looking at her curiously, Zhao Mei let out a sigh and told her what happened these days.

In fact, it's not a big deal, it's just... Tian Lin's meat is too unpalatable.

The Zhao family has always been poor because of the lack of males and labor force all the year round. Because they are not rich, they are short of oil and water. Until Zhao Mei was a child, meat was rarely seen on the dining table, and the dishes of big meat were rare and delicious on the Zhao family's dining table.

It is precisely because of this that stewed meat has become an indispensable heavyweight dish on the Zhao family's New Year's dinner table. Not only the stewed meat is fat, but even the braised pork belly is big chunks of fat meat. The fried pork belly with chili should be fried with fat pork belly, and even the winter melon soup should be added with sliced ​​pure fat meat.

In the Zhao family's recipes, fat meat is delicious, and cooking skills cannot be made up of fat meat, and rich dishes need fat meat to show their status.

In the days of lack of food and clothing, what could make people feel more happy and satisfied than a piece of pure fat and full of fat?

Zhao Mei loved to eat fatty meat when she was a child.

The main reason was that she couldn't eat anything else. In addition, her family was not rich at that time, and she could only eat meat during festivals. Tian Lin's stewed meat used to be Zhao Mei's favorite.

Zhao Mei used to be able to gobble down half a bowl of fat and thin five to five cents in front of Jiang's three fat people. The sauce was very heavy but the taste did not penetrate into the meat. The fatty fat burst in the mouth with one bite. Sticking to the tongue and between the teeth for a long time, you will never want to eat the second piece of braised pork after eating the first piece. After eating braised pork, eat a full bowl of stewed meat, and sometimes you can eat half a bowl more if the full bowl is not enough.

Later, Zhao Mei went to the county to go to high school, and her family became a little richer, and she began to have spare money in her pocket. Not only can you eat in the school cafeteria, but you can also eat some snacks at the small stalls in front of the school.

Since then, Zhao Mei has never been able to look directly at the Zhao family's famous product - white water stewed meat.

After so many years, Zhao Mei, who was fascinated by the colorful world outside and gagged by the ever-changing delicacies, became less and less tolerant of her famous white water stew, and became like the general public (everyone in the Jiang family) ) smell the same flesh color.

The only good news is that Zhao’s famous white water stew is limited to holidays, and the time of appearance is only limited to around the New Year’s Eve to Lantern Festival.

Zhao Mei can pass the customs smoothly as long as she persists for another 10 days.

Zhao Mei was telling Jiang Feng and others vividly and vividly how she had sent her husband to make noise these past few days, to repair plank roads, to secretly steal food from outside and to cook noodles in the middle of the night when Chen Cang secretly opened the door.

Everyone was startled.

"Meimei, you can't eat this bowl of bird's nest with stewed meat. You must drink it. You want to eat something sweet. Mom will add two pieces of rock sugar for you. Drink it while it's hot." Tian Lin walked in with a bowl of bird's nest with rock sugar .

Zhao Mei finished drinking the whole bowl of bird's nest cooperatively, and a smile finally appeared on Tian Lin's face.

Picking up a piece of untouched stewed meat, Tian Lin said to Jiang Zaide: "Dede, I just heard from your grandma that you didn't eat when you came out early in the morning, so my aunt will serve you stewed meat."

"Mom, I'm afraid they won't be able to eat meat so early in the morning. Didn't Xiaofeng bring glutinous rice balls? You can cook some glutinous rice balls. Do you eat glutinous rice balls or stewed meat?" Zhao Mei asked.

"Tangyuan!" Everyone said in unison, with firm eyes.

"Okay then, I'll go and cook glutinous rice balls for you. The glutinous rice balls are in..."

"Here, I just made it yesterday. Auntie, these fresh glutinous rice balls won't hold you back as soon as possible. Eat less stewed meat these days and eat more glutinous rice balls." Jiang Feng quickly handed the glutinous rice balls to Tian Lin.

"Okay." Tian Lin took the glutinous rice balls and excitedly went to the kitchen to cook the glutinous rice balls.

Everyone who escaped could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Sister Meimei, just tell your aunt the truth." Jiang Shoucheng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "My aunt called grandma two days ago and told her that you have lost a lot of weight recently and that you are going to give birth next month. Sudden weight loss during pregnancy is a big taboo. It’s not for other reasons, you can’t just avoid eating stew and skip meals.”

After Jiang Shoucheng said this, everyone thought it was very reasonable and nodded.

Zhao Mei's husband, who was standing in the crowd like the background board, was shocked: "What?! Meimei, you've lost weight these days? Why didn't you tell me!"

Zhao Mei looked at her husband speechlessly: "Didn't you see that I weighed myself last night and gained three catties?"

There was a tinge of anger in his voice, clearly angry at his rising weight.

Jiang Shoucheng:? ? ?

Zhao Mei took a deep breath to calm down, and said to Jiang Shoucheng with a calm smile, "Don't worry, Shoucheng, I haven't lost weight during this time, just because I didn't eat at the meal time, but it doesn't mean I didn't eat. My parents are so I've been used to eating meat for many years, even if I tell them, it's impossible not to cook it, it's just been like this for a few days, if I tell the truth, my mother should be sad, there is no need for it, and I won't starve myself."

The emotions of pregnant women are always unpredictable and moody. One second before, Zhao Mei was calmly explaining to Jiang Shoucheng about her eating problems during this period, but the next second she changed her face, and said to her husband with an angry face:

"Last night I told you that it is enough to cook a bowl of noodles and add two eggs, but you cooked me such a big bowl. Is that a bowl? You are a basin! I have always felt that I am pregnant because of my pregnancy. It hurts to be pressed against my stomach. Last night, there was such a big bowl of noodles. After I lay down, I felt that the noodles were all stuck in my throat. It was uncomfortable all night, and I didn’t fall asleep at all.”

"My wife, I was wrong." Zhao Mei's husband knows that in this special period, no matter who is right or who is wrong, it is right to admit his mistakes.

"Sister Meimei, do you always eat noodles and keep up with nutrition?" Jiang Feng asked.

"I can keep up. I only eat noodles at night. Although I didn't eat during the day, I have been eating noodles all the time. Since I was pregnant, my mouth can't be idle. And my mother thinks that I haven't eaten much recently. I'm afraid I can't keep up with my nutrition, and every morning I'm made to drink a bowl of bird's nest like just now, and I feel that the three catties of meat are made from drinking bird's nest." Zhao Mei's tone became very peaceful again.

"Xiaofeng, I heard that your family has opened a store in Beiping." Zhao Mei said with a smile.

Jiang Feng nodded: "Well, grandpa and grandma also moved to Peiping together, and Brother De also went to work in Peiping."

"That's good. You brothers like to stick together since you were young. I'm pregnant with twins. I hope they can work in the same city when they grow up." Zhao Mei exudes a maternal look on her face. brilliant.

Jiang Feng was about to strike while the iron was hot and chat about some more homework, when the game notification sound suddenly sounded in his mind.

"Ding, I found an optional side mission, please choose by yourself."

Jiang Feng's words suddenly changed to: "Sister Meimei, I'm going to the toilet, where is the toilet?"

Zhao Mei straightened up, moved with some difficulty, and pointed to the right: "Take two steps to the right."

"Thank you, sister Meimei." Jiang Feng got up and walked outside quickly.

Jiang Shoucheng and Jiang Zaide exchanged a look in tacit understanding, and they became more determined to take Jiang Feng to the hospital for a full physical examination in the next year.

Jiang Feng, who didn't know what Jiang Shoucheng and Jiang Zaide were planning, successfully found the toilet, went in, closed the door, and clicked on the property panel.

As Jiang Feng expected, this side mission was related to Zhao Mei.

Jiang Feng clicked decisively to accept the side mission.

[White Lie] Zhao Mei, who has been exposed to outside food for many years, has long been unable to accept the stewed meat made by her mother. In order to live up to her mother's wishes, she has always maintained this white lie that she still loves stewed meat. Now Zhao Mei is 36 weeks pregnant. For the health of Zhao Mei and the twins in her womb, players are requested to ensure her daily diet and make her feel happy physically and mentally while maintaining this white lie of Zhao Mei.

Friendly reminder: It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

Mission reward: [A memory of Tian Lin]
