Baby brings his own shopping mall to travel through

Chapter 150: Aunts and Aunts

Zheng Huaming's father had just returned from the government office. As soon as he came back, the servant reported: "Today, we received a letter from the eldest young master. The old lady asked the master to go to the main courtyard when he returned. The old lady and the lady were waiting for the master to have dinner together."

Zheng Huaming's father, Zheng Ziyue, was the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. If he took a step up, he might become the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

Hearing the two women in the family getting together again, it must be that the bad boy in the family brought back something new and interesting.

When we arrived at the main courtyard, as expected, there were new and interesting things. However, this time there were not only useful things but also food. There was one more thing than before when we sent them back home one by one.

There were bowls of steaming red and green food on the table, which made people's appetite increase just by looking at them.

"Mom, where did this come from?" asked Mr. Zheng.

"You're back, just in time. Come quickly, this is the new food that Ming'er and his friends have made. They haven't started selling it yet, so let's try it first." Madam Zheng asked her son to sit down.

"New food? I remember they haven't had new food for a long time. Now they have new food again. We must try it carefully." Mr. Zheng said as he sat down next to the old lady and stretched out his hand to pull one of the bowls in front of him.

Su held his hand and said, "It's still hot. You just made it. You can let it cool down a bit before eating to avoid getting burned. Here, Ming Ge'er's letter to you." Then she handed him the letter in her arms.

Mr. Zheng was stunned for a moment, then he realized that the letter was sent back together with the family letter, which meant there was something else to say.

Mr. Zheng took his son's letter and went into his mother's room to read it. It took him a while to finish reading it, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

Old Madam Zheng and her daughter-in-law looked at each other, thought it was a good thing, and stopped asking.

Alas, let men do their own things. As women, we cannot do big things. We should just take care of the small things at home and enjoy ourselves at home.

"Come and eat. It's cooled down now and not as hot as before. It tastes just right." Su called her husband.

"Ming'er said that this new food can be made spicy or non-spicy. This is the first time we've made both. See which one you like." Madam Zheng said to her son, "But Ming'er said that you can't eat spicy food when you're old. It's bad for your health."

"Then we will listen to Ming Ge'er. We can't refuse the young people's concern for us, right?" said Mr. Zheng.

What I mean is: your son told me that he is old and asked me not to eat too spicy food, so I also told my son not to eat too spicy food. You are also old and you should pay attention to your health.

Mr. Zheng is not a person who cares about food, and he is also filial. Everything he eats with my mother tastes delicious.

The three tried both flavors and successfully ate their fill. For a powerful family like theirs, and the mistress of the house, it would never be indecent to eat too much.

However, every time his grandson (son) brings back new food, he will show up once, under the pretext of trying it for his grandson (son) and giving him advice, which is a good excuse.

"Do you have any more of this powder?" asked Mrs. Zheng.

Nanny Su stepped forward and answered, "There are more. The eldest young master sent back several dozen kilograms. Each time, about a kilogram is enough for the three masters to eat. Today is the first time, so we soaked a kilogram and a half. The eldest young master said in the letter that we should add more vegetables to eat with it, and make the meat into whistles. It tastes good even without chili peppers."

Nanny Su was really afraid that the old lady would not eat vegetables, so she only added chili peppers.

Su also said, "Yes, yes, the bowl without chili just now is also delicious. Ming Ge'er said in the letter that he would set up a research and development team in the future to make some other flavors. We can't eat too much at once now, lest we get tired of it and don't want to eat new flavors later. Wouldn't that mean we missed out on delicious food?"

Old Madam Zheng glanced at her daughter-in-law and Nanny Su, and snorted in her heart. Aren’t they just worried that I would eat more chili peppers than vegetables? Is there a need for so many excuses?

"Mother, how about we invite all the aunts back tomorrow to try the new food? They haven't been back for a long time." Su said to Madam Zheng.

Madam Zheng agreed immediately.

Mr. Zheng: What do you mean you haven’t been back for a long time? Didn’t they just come back?

Madam Zheng gave birth to five children, but only two girls and one boy survived, namely Master Zheng and his two younger sisters. Both younger sisters married into good families, at least there were no concubines or maternal uncles in the family to bother them.

They are also very good at giving birth to sons and daughters as soon as they get married. They also manage the house in an orderly manner, and their families are also powerful. Which mother-in-law doesn't like such a daughter-in-law?

Su gave birth to four children, two sons and two daughters. The eldest daughter, Zheng Huamei, is two years older than Zheng Huaming. She gave birth to two sons, both of whom are now starting to learn.

Zheng Huaming ranked second.

The third daughter, Zheng Huali, got married two years ago and gave birth to a big fat boy last year.

The youngest is also a son, Zheng Huashen, who is only twelve years old and is still studying at the Imperial College.

The sons-in-law that Su chose for her daughter were not from powerful and aristocratic families. Their families were simple and the sons-in-law were all scholars, working as minor officials in Kyoto. Although they were not as rich and powerful as those from powerful and aristocratic families, their family and beauty were better than anything else.

Besides, my lady’s family is rich, so as long as my husband’s family doesn’t make trouble, why would they watch their lady suffer?

So when the aunts are free, they will make an appointment to go back to her parents’ home together. If there are any good things at her parents’ home, they will remember the aunts first.

Isn't it the same today? No one at home remembered the youngest grandson (son) and asked him to eat vermicelli with them. Instead, they remembered their married aunt.

When the grandson (son) found the main courtyard, the elders remembered that there was another child in the family.

"Hey, Brother Shen, have you just come back from school? Why are you here so late today? Do you have a lot of homework at school? Have you had dinner?" Old Madam Zheng pulled her little grandson over and asked.

"No, I've been back for a long time. I don't have much homework at school, and I haven't had dinner yet." Zheng Huashen answered every question.

"Why aren't you eating yet so late?" Su asked.
