Chapter 80 - 80

Chapter 80 Daily Life Back HomeYun Ting made braised pork, but decided not to make wild chicken for now, as one type of meat is enough. She made quite a lot of it. She also stir-fried a plate of spinach and made a spicy kimchi dish with napa cabbage, which was only mildly spicy, since people in her hometown don't eat spicy food very well.She decided to eat rice today, because braised pork tastes best with rice."Second sister, your cooking skills are getting better and better. The aroma is making me dizzy."Yun Ting picked up a small piece of braised porkwith her chopsticks and held it to his mouth, saying, "Here, this is a reward from your second sister."Yun Xu eagerly opened her mouth and ate it, not caring that it was hot. "Ouch...it's so hot.""What's your rush? Nobody's going to steal it from you.""Second sister, I haven't tasted it yet! Let me try another piece.""Get lost, that's all." Yun Ting said irritably.Is this Pigsy eating ginseng fruit?Liang Dan could smell the irresistible aroma outside and was starting to feel hungry.Yun Ting brought out another steamed egg, added two drops of sesame oil, and said, "Take this egg out to your sister-in-law."Yun Xu was extremely envious. These eggs smelled so good, and they even had sesame oil added. Suddenly, he also wanted to have a baby.If Yun Ting knew what he was thinking, she would probably look at him like he was an idiot. How greedy is this kid?There's nothing we can do about it; that's just how things are these days. Even if their family is considered well-off, they can't just throw things around like that."Sister-in-law, these are eggs that my second sister steamed for you. They smell delicious. Eat them while they're hot.""Oh dear, how can I eat this by myself? It's not appropriate."Yun Ting, who was in the kitchen, heard this and shouted back, "Sister-in-law, this is for my nephew, you don't need to be embarrassed!"Liang Dan knew she was saying that on purpose, so she didn't hesitate any longer. She knew they were good to her, and she would repay them in the future.Mother Yun returned first. As soon as she reached the door and smelled the aroma of food, she knew her youngest daughter had come home.They pushed open the door with a joyful gait."Oh my, my dear daughter is back?""Mom, have you missed your dear daughter?"Yun Ting greeted her with a smile."You silly girl, teasing your mother again."Mother Yun said, but she held her daughter's hand tightly and was reluctant to let go, so Yun Ting let her be."Eldest daughter-in-law, is your stomach feeling alright?" Mother Yun asked, not forgetting to inquire about her daughter-in-law."Mom, it's okay, my sister-in-law just steamed some eggs for me!"Mother Yun looked at her daughter with approval, and Yun Ting couldn't quite stand that look."By the way, why haven't Dad and my older brother come back yet?""Your dad has so many problems every day. Sometimes he doesn't come back until after we've had lunch.""Dad has worked too hard.""My daughter still cares about me the most..." As soon as Father Yun pushed open the door, he heard his daughter say this, and he couldn't have felt more comforted."Dad, eldest brother."Yun Zhao responded with a smile, asked his sister a couple of questions, and then went to check on his wife.Yun Ting wasn't dissatisfied at all; her older brother was just being affectionate towards his wife! And he wasn't neglecting his younger sister either.Once everyone was back, they started having lunch."Little sister, your cooking skills are truly excellent," Yun Zhao praised.Mother Yun felt happy but also a little bittersweet. How much hardship had her daughter endured in the countryside to learn so much?"Eat as much as you like! I promise I'll fatten everyone up while I'm at home, haha...""Do you think this is like raising pigs? What kind of conditions do we have? Are you saying we can let you eat whatever you want? What if we run out of food after you leave?" Mother Yun said irritably.The family enjoyed a happy lunch together.Mother Yun chatted with her youngest daughter for a while before going to rest."Mom, I'm going to check on my older sister.""Go after your afternoon nap. Don't disturb their rest. You've been on the road for so long, you should rest too," Mother Yun instructed.Yun Ting then went to rest. The quilts and blankets had been washed and dried, and they still smelled of sunshine, which was very comfortable. She had indeed been tired these past few days, and as soon as she relaxed, Yun Ting quickly fell asleep.I slept very soundly, and when I woke up it was almost three o'clock.No one called her; if she slept a little longer, it would be dinnertime.When she came out of the room, Yun Xu was lying on the sofa."Second sister, are you awake?""Nonsense, do you think I'm sleepwalking?""Hehe... I'll go with you to see your older sister."Yun Shu is currently resting at home. She has found a reliable relative to help her fill in at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative. She will return to work two or three months after giving birth.Yun Ting packed two dried wild chickens, four apples, a bag of red dates, a bag of hazelnuts and walnuts, and a small jar of mushroom meat sauce—all for her eldest sister.After telling their sister-in-law who was resting inside, the two siblings braved the cold wind and went out.When I arrived at my older sister's house, her parents-in-law were home. My older sister was knitting a sweater. I was pleasantly surprised to see her."Little sister, when did you get home?""Big sister, I arrived this morning."Yun Ting led Yun Xu over to greet her in-laws, "Uncle, Aunt...""Oh my, her aunt is getting more and more beautiful, and her brother-in-law is too, he's grown quite a bit taller, he's really handsome."" Auntie, if you keep praising us like that, we'll all get proud, haha!"" Auntie is telling the truth."Yun Ting started chatting with her older sister's mother-in-law, until her father-in-law interrupted her."Little Dongniang, aren't we going to Old Wang's place? Let's go! Don't bother those sisters."Her mother-in-law then realized, "Look at me, I almost forgot about it. Okay! Xiaoshu, talk to your sister-in-law more. Your parents will be back in a little while to cook dinner. Have your sister-in-law stay for dinner!"After saying that, he was pulled out the door by his wife.Yun Shu found it quite amusing. She was also surprised that her younger sister had changed her personality after returning from the countryside. She was so talkative!"Sis, your belly is quite big. Have you discussed with your husband about giving birth in the hospital? Giving birth to twins at home is a bit risky."Seeing her younger sister's worried expression, Yun Shu smiled and held her small hand, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Your brother-in-law said I'll give birth at the hospital.""That's good. Many twins are born prematurely, so you should still pay close attention and go to the hospital immediately if you notice anything unusual.""Alright, you little busybody, you're still a young lady! How do you know all this?""Haha... I went there to learn from those experienced people.""You…" Yun Shu affectionately tapped her little sister's forehead."Big sister, have you forgotten that there's a little brother here?" Yun Xu looked at Yun Shu with a pitiful expression."Haha, how could we forget our little rascal?""Little sister, look at you, you came all this way, why did you bring so much stuff? Your brother-in-law often brings back a lot, I don't need anything, you can keep it for yourselves.""Sister, not all of these were bought with money; most of them I got from the mountains."Yun Shu frowned and disagreed, saying, "The mountain is very dangerous. Don't go there again. What if a young lady falls or encounters a wild animal?""I see."As for whether or not we'll do it, I don't know.Yun Shu also understands her younger sister's personality; she's quite stubborn.
