Chapter 339 BBQ Party
Tu Shan didn't come out, and responded from the kitchen: "Don't drink tea just now. I'll make you some juice to wake up your stomach first, and then you can have a good lunch."
The stubborn old man who never put down his tea said without a second thought: "Okay."
"Three... ahem, Third girl, let's have one too."
"Yes, yes, we want both."
Others... always feel that the atmosphere in this family is weird, and the whole family has changed.
"Okay." It's the same whether you're driving one sheep or a flock of sheep.
Tu Shan brought a lot of apples and bananas and squeezed apple and banana juice.
The boys stayed with her and did not leave, so Tu Shan ordered them to peel bananas while she cut apples.
Without an advanced juicer, Tu Shan pounded the juice by hand until it became a milkshake-like consistency, which was no different from that made with a juicer.
The Ling family has fresh milk, which can be added after boiling.
Auntie not only made steamed dumplings, but also some pancakes. Tu Shan and the kids put them on the table.
"Come and eat something, fill your stomach first, and then make delicious food for lunch."
"Here we come," a group of people moved to the dining table.
The Ling family’s dining table is quite large and can seat more than ten or twenty people.
Those who couldn’t sit down could just bring their food to the side and eat. No one cared and some even thought it was quite interesting.
It was their first time eating this kind of fruit puree mixed with milk, and they thought it was pretty good.
Because the raw materials are good, even gay men who don’t like sweets much praise it for being delicious.
The girls and their sons-in-law who came back to their parents' home were also invited to have some together. I have to say, it was really good.
Ling Yang was the last one to come down. If anyone was tired last night, he was the most tired.
Help my wife get vines and run errands for everyone to get whatever they need.
He ran all night and was exhausted despite his excellent physical condition.
When he woke up in the morning, his legs still felt weak. When others saw him like this, they all looked down on him.
Ling Feng chuckled and said, "Second brother, you can't do it. Look at us, we have so much physical strength."
Ling Yang was too lazy to pay attention to him. He had played all night and was tired all night. How could it be the same?
Grandpa Ling, who loves his grandson very much, did not protect him this time: "Ling Yang, you really should practice more." Don't let your grandson's wife dislike you.
It doesn't matter if they dislike you, but it will be troublesome if they run away.
Ling Yang didn’t know what the old man hadn’t finished saying. If he knew, he would definitely thank him, dear grandpa.
In this family, only his wife felt sorry for him. She went to find Tu Shan silently.
"Wife," he said aggrievedly.
Tu Shan took the boy over and gave him a kiss while no one else was paying attention: "I'll give you a massage later, eat." She stuffed a steamed dumpling into his mouth.
Ling Yang instantly recovered: "Delicious."
"Go ask everyone if we can have a barbecue at noon. If so, roast the two sheep we brought and some other things.
You take everyone to the backyard to set up the grill and get some signatures while we prepare the ingredients."
With so many people, even if the aunt had two more hands she wouldn’t be able to handle it.
They are all young and strong. They can't just eat for free without working.
Besides, the Ling family’s small living room can’t accommodate everyone.
Tu Shan had just asked her aunt about this matter, and her aunt naturally agreed with both hands.
The old man is the head of the family, but he lets her decide what to eat and what to cook. He is not picky at all and is quite easy to serve.
When other family members come back during the Chinese New Year or other holidays, the hostess will make arrangements for her and she just has to follow them.
But there are not enough people, so it won’t work today. There may not even be enough bowls and chopsticks.
If Tu Shan didn't make a proposal, she would ask other people to make decisions and need help.
However, if it were any other new bride who made suggestions just one day after arriving, probably no one would pay attention to her. Tu Shan conquered everyone with her strength.
Ling Yang agreed, and returned to the living room without asking any questions, and arranged it in his name.
He also took his cousins and brothers-in-law away to work.
"Sister, you and everyone else go in and help Auntie and Shanshan prepare the ingredients." Ling Yang glanced at her sister.
Seeing the genuine joy on his brother's face, Ling Anran finally put his worries to rest: "Okay."
The kitchen couldn't accommodate so many people, so we simply moved to the yard to process the various ingredients.
Some wash, some cut.
Ling Yang was the first to get the signatures back, and let the aunts do the stringing work with the eager kids.
Tu Shan was cutting meat at a separate table.
On the night of the 30th day, while Tu Shan was outside gathering food, he also killed a lot of prey.
The family left some fresh ones for the butcher's mother to eat, and brought the rest over.
I'm not afraid of it going bad even in the cold weather. I originally wanted to save it for my aunt to make some long-lasting food for my grandfather, but after eating it today, there will probably be nothing left.
It’s okay, she can just do it again.
The old man sat in a rocking chair and watched.
I was almost stunned by Tu Shan's smooth cutting. Her craftsmanship is amazing.
The three brothers of Ling's father were not idle either. Grandpa Ling also assigned them work and asked them to help skewer meat next to Tu Shan.
Also shocked.
"With San Yatou's skills, even if she works in a slaughterhouse, she will be sought after." Uncle Ling praised with a smile.
Tu Shan grinned, turning the ordinary kitchen knife into a variety of tricks in her hands: "The slaughterhouse can't accommodate a big Buddha like me. These hands of mine are for killing enemies."
Listening to her bragging, the others were not disgusted and agreed with her.
Indeed, her hands were wasted for cutting meat.
The Ling family got up, and other families also got up one after another.
Tu Shan took us out to play the whole night last night, and we all felt embarrassed.
After washing up and eating something, I went to the door with gifts.
When I saw that the Ling family was going to have a barbecue, what were I waiting for? I joined in.
So, back to last night’s pageantry.
Your family gets drinks, my family gets cakes, and my family provides some carbon.
Anyway, no one was in control and no one was idle, so they held a barbecue party at the Ling family.
I ate from the afternoon to the early morning, and on the third day of the New Year, I successfully got up late again.
After two crazy days, it’s time to get down to business.
Relatives have to visit and relationships have to be maintained.
The Ling family left one after another.
Ling Yang and Tu Shan also had to go home. She was worried that Tu's mother would not be able to adapt to living alone in Kyoto.
But when I left, I saw the old man sitting alone in the living room. Although he had a smile on his face, there was always a hint of loneliness in that smile.
"Grandpa, don't sit there anymore. Hurry up and see if there's anything you're used to. Ask Auntie to help pack it up so that Brother Lingyang can put it in the car together."
The old man's smile froze.
Ling Yang paused while loading the truck and looked at the old man's aged face. His nose felt sore. He was being unfilial.
"It's okay, Grandpa, I can just go to the store and buy whatever you need. If that doesn't work, I'll run back and get it. It's not far."
My aunt has been taking care of the old man for seven or eight years. It’s very uncomfortable every time she sees the old man sitting alone drinking tea in a lonely manner.
No matter how high the official position is or how many descendants there are, when a person gets old, he is always alone and equally pitiful.
She also understood these wealthy families. Everyone was busy. It wasn't that the children were unfilial, but they were all busy with big things and had to make choices.
Ling Yang and his wife were going to take the old man away, and she was happy for the old man.
"The old man only has one set of tea sets that he's used to. Just bring two sets of clothes. I'll go pack them right away."
The old man was still in a daze, as if he hadn't come back to his senses: "Well, you don't have to drink tea every day."
Auntie smiled and said, "Yes, yes, if you're hungry, you can ask Third Sister to squeeze some juice for you. I'll go pack my clothes."
Tu Shan smiled: "Brother Lingyang, take grandpa to the car first, I'll go help auntie."
"Okay," Ling Yang smiled and helped the old man into the car.
Tu Shan only asked her aunt to take two sets of clothes that she liked and a thick cotton coat, and nothing else.
The aunt also secretly told her about the old man's preferences, and as she spoke, her eyes reddened and she sighed, "The old man has finally gotten what he's been waiting for."
What are you waiting for?
Tu Shan didn't quite understand, but it was probably a happy thing.
