After a while, the water in the pot boiled, making gurgling sounds.

Seeing that it was almost time, everyone started to get busy again.

Some were cooking and some were making noodles, making the originally somewhat deserted brigade headquarters instantly lively.

Shen Lingling looked at the ingredients on the stove curiously, and occasionally exchanged a few words with Lu Wensheng in a low voice:

"Don't mention it, the food in our team looks pretty good. Even the noodles are made from two kinds of dough."

Lu Wensheng took a look and nodded: "It's really good, there's meat over there!"

Li Youliang, who was burning the fire, heard this and explained while adding more firewood:

"Today we are eating the best noodles, which are freshly ground and the vegetables are freshly dug out from the cellar.

Even this meat was hunted by the captain and his men in the mountains two days ago!"

"Not bad, not bad!" Lu Wensheng praised.

In fact, if you want to see what kind of person the leader of a brigade is like, you have to look at his attitude towards his team members. It seems that the leadership team of the Ping An Brigade is quite responsible!

Just when everyone was busy, the team leader and the village chief walked in from outside.

Seeing so many women gathered together, talking and laughing, especially when he saw Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling in the crowd, he was stunned at first, then smiled:

"Wow, it's so lively today! Xiaolu and Xiaoshen are here? Looks like we're in for a treat today."

"That's right. Xiaolu and Xiaoshen are famous for their delicious meals in the village. We are all in for a treat today." The village chief also shouted.

Everyone burst into laughter, and for a moment the whole yard was filled with laughter. Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling also joined in, feeling the warmth in this winter.

————————————

Everyone was talking and laughing, time passed very quickly, and the food was ready in no time.

As soon as the bell rang, the team members outside who were repairing the road came to the team headquarters one after another to get their meals.

Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling each guarded a big pot and prepared to distribute the food to them.

Those who arrived early had already lined up and were waiting for the gong to sound so that the food could be distributed.

Gradually, more and more people came, and Lu Wensheng also saw Lu Laoxianer and Su Qishan in the crowd. The one at the back who was wrapped tightly with only a pair of eyes showing should be Old Man Ge.

"I can't believe that Uncle Ge is also working."

Shen Lingling replied: "What kind of work? You are just bored at home and want to get some fresh air!"

Lu Wensheng thought about it and felt that it made sense: "You understand those old guys."

After the gong sounded for dinner, Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling had no time to chat and hurried to serve food to everyone.

The people in the team were talking and laughing as they lined up, with simple smiles on their faces.

When it was a young man's turn, he looked at Lu Wensheng's hands as he served the dishes, blushed slightly, and said softly:

"Lu Zhiqing, today's food smells really good."

Lu Wensheng responded with a smile:

"Haha, if it smells good, eat more so you'll have energy to work in the afternoon!"

The men queuing nearby joked:

"Hey, Jianxing, are you full just by looking at Lu Zhiqing?"

The people around also laughed when they heard the words. The young man named Jianxing scratched his head shyly and said nothing. He ran away with a full box of food.

His appearance made everyone laugh even harder.

At this time, the captain heard the laughter and came over. Looking at the team members who were talking more and more outrageously, he said seriously:

"What are you all doing? Hurry up and eat. We still have a lot of work to do in the afternoon."

After hearing this, everyone quieted down and concentrated on eating.

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, Lu Wensheng continued to serve food to the rest of the people.

Suddenly, Ma Yingjie ran over from the back of the team, shouting excitedly:

"Sister Lu, Sister Lu! Look who's here?"

Seeing Xiao Luzi so excited, Lu Wensheng knew that the person who came must be someone close to him, so he quickly handed the spoon in his hand to the captain and said:

"Captain, I'm going to go out and take a look. Please help me get some food first!"

She had already guessed someone in her mind, but...

Some of them are too incredible!

————————————

As soon as she ran out of the door, she saw an ox cart coming from afar. Who else could the person sitting on it be but her uncle!

"Uncle!"

Lu Wensheng was so excited that when she saw clearly who was sitting in the carriage, she couldn't help shouting and ran in that direction.

It turned out to be my uncle! I am so happy!!!

Yes, the person who came was Chen Cheng.

After he finished the funeral of Master Ma, he hurried here. He had just got off the train this morning. Because he missed the earliest bus, he rented a ox cart to rush here.

Chen Cheng saw his Shengsheng running out of the brigade headquarters from afar, and a big smile broke out on his face when he heard her shouting.

He hurriedly jumped off the ox cart and stood there waiting for his little girl to run over.

Lu Wensheng finally ran over, hugged Chen Cheng, tears in his eyes.

"Uncle, why are you here again in such a cold day? Are you not leaving now and will stay until the New Year?" Lu Wensheng's voice was tearful and full of surprise.

"I missed you, girl, and I brought you some things." Chen Cheng touched her head lovingly.

In fact, he brought a lot of things this time. It was Shengsheng's first time to spend the winter in Northeast China, and he was afraid that she would not be used to it, so he thought of coming to see her.

Plus the dream he had a while ago...

"Well, okay, let's go in first!"

Lu Wensheng happily held Chen Cheng's hand and walked towards the brigade headquarters, explaining as he walked:

"Our brigade is currently repairing the road. I'm cooking at the brigade headquarters today. Uncle, have you eaten yet? Come in and have a bite to eat with us. We'll go home after dinner."

Oh, by the way, grandpa is here too, do you want to see him?"

Chen Cheng just let her pull him forward, looking at her lovingly and agreeing with whatever she said.

That’s great, Shengsheng in real life is still lively and energetic!

When everyone saw this scene, they all showed surprised expressions:

No, this is Lu Zhiqing's father, right? Didn't he leave a while ago? Why is he here again so soon?

I think their family lives in the south? They come so often, how come the round-trip train tickets are free?

The captain also came over at this time, greeted him with a familiar look on his face, and joked that he and Chen Cheng had a revolutionary friendship, they had drunk together and watched plays together.

"Why are you here again? Are you still worried about my little deer?"
