Chapter 1158 Who should do this household chore?
Inside the Nohara house, Misae got up and complained, "Ah, it's so hot today too."
Just when I was about to drink a cup of barley tea, I was suddenly surprised to find that the barley tea on the table was empty!
"Hey, my husband must have drunk up the rest of the barley tea. If he finished it, he should have made a new pot." There was no other choice, so Misae put the cup away, made a new pot, and prepared to teach Hiroshi a lesson.
While eating, Xiaoxin looked around, scratched his head, and asked in confusion: "Mom, where's the barley tea?"
"No more, but I can make you a cup of hot tea." Misae said with a smile while looking at Shin-chan.
"No, no, I want to drink iced barley tea." As expected, Shin-chan shouted.
Mingxu glanced at several people, hmm, their expressions were different.
Misae said, looking at Hiroshi: "What can we do? Who told the person who drank up all the barley tea not to make new one?"
"Uh, I accidentally fell asleep..." Guangzhi also knew that it was his own problem and quickly defended himself.
"What do you mean by careless?" Mei Ya said unhappily.
"Oh." Mingxu nodded. Sure enough, this was an act of revenge against Guangzhi.
Xiaoxin also reacted and looked at Guangzhi: "Oh~ the murderer is Dad."
"Just add tea bags and water." Misae continued to look at Hiroshi.
Guangzhi Lianlian apologized: "Sorry, sorry, how about I go to the convenience store to buy a bottle." Then he got up and went out to buy it.
Seeing this, Mei Ya shook her head and said, "No need to buy it, I've already made it and it will be ready to drink in an hour."
Guangzhi was stunned for a moment, then sat down again: "Ah, really?"
"But I'd like to ask you to wash these dishes." Seeing this, Mei Ya immediately put forward her own conditions.
"Why me?" Guangzhi was stunned and asked in confusion.
"Also, please organize the plastic bottles." Misae ignored her and continued.
"Ah..." Guangzhi curled his lips. After dinner, Mingxu consciously went over to help.
When Meiya came over after washing the clothes, she found that everything here was already done.
"Hey, it's all washed. Very good, very good." But when she turned around and saw that the TV in the living room was still on, she immediately complained: "The TV is still on, ah! Why don't you put away the seaweed and pickled plums as well?" Meiya looked at the things on the table and complained.
"Wait a minute, I'll put everything in the refrigerator as soon as I finish cleaning it up. It was too full just now." Mingxu said as he poked his head out of the kitchen.
"Ah... uh..." After hearing this, Mei Ya felt a little embarrassed.
"It's what they call a family affair without a name, right?" At this moment, this sentence happened to come on the TV. Mei Ya was stunned for a moment and scratched her head: "A family affair without a name?"
"That's absolutely right. Putting the shoes in order at the entrance, organizing the newspapers, changing the toilet paper, clearing the dishes after meals, and making tea, these trivial matters are all household chores without names, and most of them have become the work of housewives." The TV continued.
"That's right, that's right, you're absolutely right!" Meiya nodded in agreement.
Shin-chan came out with some iced barley tea and asked, "Hmm~ Freshly made, barley tea is the best~ What's for lunch, Mom?"
Meiya was stunned for a moment, a little confused: "Huh? Didn't you just have breakfast?"
"I want to eat cold noodles, I want to eat cold noodles!" Xiaoxin said shyly.
"Cold noodles." Meiya thought about it.
"This is easier." Xiaoxin said with a smile.
"Oh, do you want to make cold noodles for lunch?" Mingxu walked out of the kitchen and casually brought in a few plates on the table.
"Well, let's decide to make cold noodles." Meiya nodded and smiled.
"Yeah~ Please remember to put some thin perilla leaves and ginger." Xiaoxin said happily.
"Ah, wait, wait, wait a minute, there are no perilla leaves and ginger, and it's really troublesome just to cut the scene!"
"Ah, no, no, basil and ginger!!" Shin-chan put the cup on his head and started shaking it.
"Oh. This is not good." Mingxu took it down and held Xiaoxin down.
"Okay, okay, I agree. Stop squirming." Mei Ya said unhappily.
"Yes!" Xiaoxin finally calmed down.
On the other side, Guangzhi found those plastic bottles.
"Really? There are so many accumulated."
"Just like mom's extra fat, right?"
"You're really good at using metaphors, hahaha~" Guangzhi burst into laughter after hearing what Shin-chan said.
"You guys are so brave." Mingxu's voice came, and the two were stunned. When they looked up, they saw two people standing behind them.
Guangzhi's mouth twitched.
"Ah, mom's extra fat, is that it?" Mei Ya looked at the two of them with an expressionless face.
"Ah, what I mean is, I want to eat luxurious meat." Xiaoxin said seriously.
"Yeah, you guys drank all those plastics, just like the barley tea! You two drank almost all of it!" After saying that, Meisai turned around and said, "Please!"
Mingxu looked at them and said, "Let's get to work. Speaking of barley tea, I still prefer drinking plain water."
"Oh, there's nothing we can do. Just keep doing it." Guangzhi shrugged.
"Ah, I suddenly want to go to the bathroom to do something very important, so that's it." Xiaoxin said and turned around and ran away. Mingxu rolled his eyes. What a kid.
"Oh, he ran away. Oh, ah, where should I start tearing it?" Looking at the packaging on the bottle, Guangzhi felt a little confused.
"Dad. Knife." Mingxu handed over a small knife.
"Oh, yes." Guangzhi also reacted, cut the edge with a knife, and then tore it off easily.
On the other side, in the bathroom, Meiya shook the laundry detergent and was stunned: "It's gone? Ah, what is this? Oh, the toothpaste foam sprayed from brushing teeth! It must be made by my husband again! Wouldn't it be better to just wipe it clean!" Meiya originally wanted to find laundry detergent, but when she looked down and saw the stains on the mirror, she took out a rag and wiped it.
"Well, that's good." After wiping, he took out the bag of laundry detergent and poured it into the bottle: "Be careful not to spill it..."
"Mom, Mom!" Shin-chan's voice came, and Misae's hand trembled and she fell out.
"Ah! That's disgusting! What's wrong?!" Mei turned her head to look towards the toilet and shouted unhappily.
"Oh no, oh no, this is the biggest crisis in my life! Come quickly!" Xiaoxin urged.
Meiya walked over and was speechless. She turned around, took a pack of tissues and put them in the trash can: "Really, it's just that the toilet paper is used up, don't make a fuss."
"Did mom put all the toilet paper there?"
"Ah, is that even necessary? Did you expect the new toilet paper to be put in automatically?"
"Yeah, I thought."
"Oh my God, it would be much easier for me if this were automatic, and these kinds of chores are what are called household chores without a name." Mei Ya said as she thought about it.
"A family affair without a name? But now there is already a family affair without a name, and this is the name." Xiaoxin didn't understand at all.
Inside the house, Mingxu and Guangzhi spent a long time working on it and only managed to finish half of it. Some of the things were still sticky even with a knife, so they could only tear them apart slowly.
"Oh, I didn't expect it to be so troublesome. Let's take a break." Guangzhi stood up, patted his butt, and walked to the refrigerator: "Oh, the barley tea is already chilled. Xiaoxu, drink some water first."
"Yeah." Mingxu nodded, and sat at the table with Guangzhi to drink.
"Ah~ Another cup." Guang Zhi just finished speaking, as if he sensed something, he stuffed the barley tea into Ming Xu's hand, then returned to his original position and began to tear off the label.
"Hey, some of these are easy to tear, but some are hard to tear, hahaha~"
"...I see." Seeing Guangzhi's reaction, Mingxu immediately understood.
Meiya came over and looked at Guangzhi: "If the toilet paper roll is used up, please put a new one in, okay?"
"Ah, sorry."
"Why do all the household chores that have no name become my job?!" Mei Ya said with a puffed face.
"Ah? A family affair without a name?" Guangzhi was stunned.
"What they just said on TV, sweeping the floor, clearing the dishes, and changing the toilet paper are all household chores without names." Mingxu spread his hands and poured another cup of barley tea.
"Oh~" Guangzhi also reacted.
"Mrs. Nohara, Mrs. Nohara." The aunt next door came to look for Meisai.
"Oh, hello." Meiya saw the aunt next door and greeted her with a smile.
"These were picked in our yard. I can't eat so much anyway." The aunt took out some things she grew herself.
"Ginger and perilla leaves. Sorry." Mei's eyes suddenly lit up, as they happened to be out of stock at home.
"Just a little." The aunt smiled.
"No, I need it because we plan to make cold noodles for lunch." Mei Ya said with a smile.
"That's great." The aunt handed these things to Mei Ya with a smile, then said goodbye.
Looking at the thing in her hand, Meiya felt helpless: "There is no other way, I have to cut it."
Inside the house, Mingxu and Guangzhi sorted out the plastic bottles, packed them and put them aside.
"Finally I've sorted it out. Oh, there's only this left. If I finish all of this, I'll have to make a new pot. Hey, it's not a difficult thing to just put the tea bags in. Why can't you do such a simple thing? Nohara Hiroshi, why?!" Hiroshi looked at the barley tea in the refrigerator with melancholy.
Looking at Hiroshi standing in front of the refrigerator, Misae asked, "Huh? What are you doing?"
"No, I didn't do anything. Oh, by the way, aren't we having cold noodles for lunch? Let me cook the noodles." Guangzhi said hurriedly.
Meiya was overjoyed: "Oh, really? Thank you."
So, watching Meiya chopping vegetables and Guangzhi cooking noodles, Xiaoxin couldn't help but nod: "Yeah, what a beautiful picture."
"Hey, go wipe the table too." Guangzhi looked at Xiaoxin speechlessly.
Then he saw Mingxu take out the barley tea from the refrigerator, put in the tea bag, and pour water, so the bottle was full again. He put it back in the refrigerator. Seeing this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After Xiaoxin finished wiping the table, everyone's cold noodles were almost cooked.
"It's ready." Guangzhi packed the cold noodles and brought them out. Mingxu also came over to help.
"There's also this." Meisai brought out a plate of fried food.
"Hmm? Tempura without any toppings?"
"These are fried noodle balls. I asked for them from the soba shop. Come and eat them."
"I'm going to start!"
Everyone started eating happily.
Meiya stood up and was about to take out the barley tea from the refrigerator, but she found that the barley tea was a little hot, so she put it back.
After everyone finished eating the cold noodles, the barley tea was almost frozen, so we took out a cup for each person.
"Wow~comfortable~"
"Hahaha~"
Everyone laughed happily~
