Chapter 171
When Jiang's father and mother came in, Jiang Miao was still staring at the TV and watching "The Return of the Condor Heroes".

This is a drama that was filmed last year. It was not released in mainland China until the winter vacation this year. Once it was released, the ratings soared.

Last night everyone went to watch the Spring Festival Gala and didn't watch The Return of the Condor Heroes. This morning, she tuned into the Z Province TV station to watch The Return of the Condor Heroes.

The TV in the old store at the entrance of the village is a rare 25-inch color TV in the village. It can receive more channels than other houses. The old men, women and children in the village love to come to the high platform of the old store at the entrance of the village to brag and chat, and also because the old store at the entrance of the village has a color TV that can show many TV stations.

As soon as Jiang's father and mother entered the door, Jiang Miao turned around and greeted them. In fact, she was not familiar with the people in her hometown at all. Except for her brother, she didn't know anyone.

When she was still young and could not remember, her father took the whole family except her grandparents to move to the town to work hard. Later, they went to the city, and their family has always settled in the city. Even if they came back for two days during the Chinese New Year, it was only two days and then they would go back.

His parents wanted to bring his grandparents to live in the city, but the old couple were unwilling to do so, saying that they were used to living in their hometown and couldn't get used to living in the city. Anyway, in the village, the neighbors on both sides could take care of them.

When her father comes back this time, he also wants to install a telephone in his hometown, so that if his grandparents have any problems in the future, they can call conveniently without having to run to the brigade headquarters.

After saying hello, she went back to watching TV.

Although Jiang Ma disliked Jiang Ning from head to toe, she was reflexively warm and flattering to Jiang Miao. She smiled kindly and asked her softly, "Where are your parents?"

Jiang Miao took the time to answer Jiang Ma: "My parents are in the kitchen."

Jiang Guotai's house was built early, probably the earliest one in the village. The style of the house is also very old, with three rooms downstairs and two rooms upstairs. The main room is used as a convenience store, with a glass and wooden cabinet to separate a place for selling things and collecting money. Inside is a tall shelf full of goods. To the left of the glass table is a cement table with many transparent glass jars filled with all kinds of candies, some at one cent, some at two at one cent, and all kinds of snacks that children like.

Further inside, near the coffee table, there was a black and gray square table with a color TV on it. Jiang Miao was sitting in the fire barrel. There was a small door behind the TV. Through the small door, he went to the back yard and found the kitchen.

Both Jiang's father and mother went to the kitchen.

When Jiang's father saw that it was Jiang Guotai who was cooking, he was very surprised and asked, "Why are you cooking?"

Jiang Guotai and Jiang's father grew up together and knew each other very well. He skillfully cooked and said with a smile, "I'm not worse than you in cooking, am I? It's just that I've been too busy these years and don't have time to cook. Today, you and Fourth Brother are here, so I'll show you my cooking skills!"

The dishes Jiang Guotai cooks now are very different from those when he was a child. Like his father, he stopped studying after graduating from high school without being admitted to university. He grew up in the village before high school. Even though he could cook, he could not escape the limits of his vision. The dishes he cooked were all ordinary home cooking. Now he has seen the world in the city and has eaten countless restaurants and dishes of all kinds. The dishes he cooks now are just like the dishes he had eaten in the city, with good color, aroma and taste, and very presentable.
