Chapter 82
After eating at noon, the helpers removed the leftovers from the table in the dining room. After the kitchen was cleaned up, Father Xi gave the helpers in the kitchen a half-day off. This is also normal.When cooking, he will give the helper and the chef a holiday. He secretly puts spiritual spring water in it when cooking, so he doesn't need someone to help in the kitchen.
The three of them sat in the living room to digest food and drink tea, and then went to rest or work for a while. At around 2:30 in the afternoon, Xi Yu, Jiang Li and his wife went out to deliver peaches to the Jiang family and the Xi family.
Two cans of scented tea were brewed at noon, and the taste was very good. Jiang Li knew that the peach blossoms grew from the peach blossoms, and the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin was also good. When went, brought a can of peach blossom tea back.natal family.
It's not that Jiang Li is stingy and has good things, but she is only willing to give them to her natal family instead of taking them back to the Xi's old house to honor her mother-in-law. People have long and short fingers, not to mention the closeness and estrangement.It is unavoidable that the ordinary mother-in-law is the same as the mother who raised her in the palm of her hand since she was a child. Jiang Li is not afraid to tell people that in her heart, the mother is naturally more important than the mother-in-law.
What's more, although Jiang Li is a good-natured person who never turns against others, but seeing that she didn't live in the old Xi's house after getting married with her husband, she knows that she lives with a big family like the Xi's that has been passed down for hundreds of years.Mrs. Xi, who has many traditional ideas in her life, Jiang Li still feels very tired in some places when she gets along with her. As far as giving birth to a child, Jiang Li only gave birth to one vassal Xi, and her in-laws urged her more than once.When giving birth, Jiang Li is a modern lesbian with thinking, work and independent personality. Naturally, she can't accept this kind of treatment like a reproductive machine, so her relationship with her husband's family is not particularly good. She just does her best with her in-lawsresponsibility, and the relationship between sisters-in-law is mostly not very close.
In short, in the eyes of Lesbian Jiang Li: A place like the Xi’s old house is a place where feudal ideology remains. The people living in it are old-fashioned in their behavior and a bunch of big families with big rules. They don’t have the vitality that modern society should have at all..
Although Jiang Li herself became superstitious about feudalism in order to save her son, she was desperate and helpless, and it was different from the old Xi's old house that had been passed down for hundreds of years.
Comrade Xi Yuda himself knew that his wife was a little concerned because of some things that happened in the same family back then.And break away from the family's business arrangements and rely on his own brain to climb to today's high position. Of course, he can climb so fast. He can't deny that he naturally has the support of the family behind him, so his political career is smoother than others., it is easier to get some opportunities, but the same dangers are just as much.
In short, Comrade Xi Da is a good man who loves his family, loves his wife, and is filial to his parents. Naturally, he is his own son. He cannot escape being a son of man, but he has the ability to protect his son.There is no need for a wife to please the family. Jiang Li only goes to Xi's old house three or five times a year to maintain the filial piety and face of a daughter-in-law, and to connect with her sister-in-law, and there is nothing more.
The husband and wife went out together, because the Jiang family was closer, so they went to the father-in-law's house first. The elders of the Jiang family are over 70 years old this year, and they have already retired to take care of things at home. Jiang Li's eldest brother, the Jiang family, is in charge.The population is smaller, and now only the second elder and the elder son's family live together in the Jiang family's old house.
When the husband and wife arrived, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang were both at home, but the old man had been in poor health for a long time. He was recuperating at home all the year round and rarely came outside. The old lady was in a stronger body.On a deck chair made of rattan, closed eyes and basked in the sun in the garden outside the villa.
Mother and daughter are connected, and Jiang Liren woke up as soon as she arrived. She was very surprised and happy to see her daughter and son-in-law.
"Mom." Jiang Li hurried over to support her arm. The old lady couldn't sit still on the rattan chair and wanted to get up. Jiang Li carefully supported her mother and said softly: "Mom, be careful."
"mother in law."
Xi Yu was holding a gift for the two elders in his hand. When he came to visit his mother-in-law's house, he couldn't just bring a few peaches. What did Xi Yu prepare for his father-in-law and mother-in-law?The good wines he treasured, including Jiang Li's sister-in-law, Jiang Li chose the latest custom-made high-end noble lady skin care product gift box set, a set that is hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars larger than what Xie Yunjin gave back at the beginningThe set for Jiang Li is more expensive, but she is not short of money in business and can afford to give it even a few million.
Xi Yu also came to help with a few gift boxes in both hands. Mrs. Jiang was very satisfied with this son-in-law. Seeing him, a busy man, came to see him, with a cheerful smile on her face, she put one hand in her daughter'sShang smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm in good health, as long as you and your son-in-law have a good life, you can bring anything when you come."
But having said that, she is very happy to have this heart for her daughter and son-in-law, and she is very happy in her heart. She is not greedy for such things. Mrs. Jiang herself was born into a wealthy family, so naturally she is not short of money.Having this kind of heart is what makes her happy and useful.
Speaking of presents, the husband and wife carefully supported the old lady to walk into the villa, while Jiang Li said: "Mom, didn't you say that it was good to eat the peaches I sent last time? This time, Xi Yu and I got some more.I will give you a few peaches for Mom, and you and Dad will eat them separately, this time the peaches are better than last time, eating them is good for your health."
Jiang Li said that she would let her mother and father share the food, but she also knew that if there were good things, her mother would not be able to keep all of them for her husband and wife to enjoy, and she would definitely have to share two of the six peaches.Her eldest brother and sister-in-law are one by one.But Jiang Li didn't say these things, she was the son and daughter-in-law of her parents, so it was impossible for her to be stingy and not give up two peaches as a daughter and sister.
The husband and wife helped Mrs. Jiang to sit down on the sofa in the living room of the villa. The servant of the Jiang family saw her and the husband and said, "Miss, my uncle is here." He quickly brought the hot teaCome, bring some more snacks and fruit plates.
Jiang Li personally served her mother and took a sip of hot tea, and then took out the things she had prepared. Needless to say, six pink peaches with juicy fists were just right in a delicate wicker flower basket.It is particularly delicate and beautiful against the pink peach inside, which looks very attractive.
In addition to peaches, there is also a jar of peach blossom tea, a piece of peach blossom essential oil soap, Jiang Li introduced these two things to her mother one by one, and did not forget to remember Xie Yunjin's proposal to her husband and wife to keep the peach pits, and sat on the sofaTurning sideways to Mrs. Jiang, she said: "Mom, these peaches are very effective and contain many things that are good for people's health. Don't throw away the peach pits after eating the peaches. The peach kernels inside are also good things. They are said to be nutritious.It’s edible even though it’s bigger than peach flesh, and the peach kernels can also be used to extract essential oils for skin care products.”
Mrs. Jiang listened to her daughter's babbling, and she didn't feel impatient at all. She doted on her daughter very much. She was the most beloved child in the family since she was a child, and she was also her treasure.For many years, she has been the mother's little padded jacket, and her daughter's warmth is unmatched by her son's caring.
Mrs. Jiang didn't feel that there was anything wrong in what her daughter said, and on her rosy cheeks, she responded with an unconditional tolerance and loving smile towards her daughter: "Okay, okay..."
"Mom, I will do whatever my dear girl asks me to do." Mrs. Jiang said kindly. The old lady's eyesight is not particularly good when she is old, and she will half-close her eyes when she speaks. The old man is seventy-seven years old this year.However, with proper maintenance, the cheeks are rosy and plump, the skin on the face is relatively smooth and there are no wrinkles except for the eyes, the ruddy complexion looks like he is only in his sixties, and his temperament is gentle and amiable. From a distance, he looks like a kind old man.
Jiang Li's father is two years older than his wife. He is seventy-nine years old this year and will celebrate his eightieth birthday next summer. Because of his poor health, Jiang Li and his wife didn't let him down when they came.
After talking with Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Jiang patted the woman's hand, squinted her eyes and said, "Li'er, you and your son-in-law go upstairs to see your father."
Jiang Li got up and said: "Mom, please sit down first, I will go to see Dad with Xi Yu."
The husband and wife went upstairs to visit Lao Taishan. Mr. Jiang was not in good health and always coughed and wheezed, and his heart was not very good. He had seen many doctors and did not take less traditional Chinese medicine, but it was not very good.The old man was supposed to celebrate his 80th birthday this summer, but because the grandson, Xi Fengchen, hadn't woken up, the old man canceled his birthday.
Even though he knew that Xi Fengchen had woken up and recovered for a while, Mr. Jiang was still not relieved when he saw the husband and wife coming up. The first thing he said was to care about his grandson's health.
"How is the vassal's health, but it's really all right? Li'er, don't be careless." Mr. Jiang said while coughing, his gray-haired, old and sharp face was full of caring for his grandson.Heart.
Looking at his daughter and son-in-law, Mr. Jiang stretched out his hand and said, "Sit."
"Dad's vassals are all in good health. They have been checked and there are no sequelae. There is no problem with their legs and they are recovering well. But Dad, you should pay more attention to your health and don't care about that brat." Jiang Li said.
