During the famine, a sack of grain was traded for a little girl. Everyone thought the family had lost their minds.
But ever since they adopted little Qingtian, it was as if their lives had be...
After all, everyone is now very familiar with the situation of the Ye family, and knows that Mrs. Ye’s cooking skills are not something that can be tasted casually.
Although it is a bit shameless to stay for a meal when visiting a patient.
But given their status and income, if they want to have such an opportunity again, they will probably have to wait until they are old.
So everyone looked at each other, hoping that if the other person said no, they would follow suit.
After watching for a long time, I found that no one was willing to get up and leave.
Finally, Ma Ge couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Okay, one by one, if you want to stay for dinner, just say so, why are you pretending?
"I'll be frank. I'm envious of Madam You's cooking skills. I'm shamelessly staying here today!"
After Ma Ge explained the matter, everyone felt less awkward and embarrassed and started laughing.
Ye Lao Si said: "My sister-in-law invited you to dinner, of course it is sincere, not just being polite, the dishes may have been prepared by now.
"It would be troublesome if you guys left. With so much food, how long would it take us to finish it?"
"Look at what's going on. It's like we're just here to eat for free." Another man stood up, scratched the back of his head and said, "Why don't we help with some work before we eat?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Ge slapped him again.
"Hey, Li Yuanwei, what you said is still reliable.
"Come on, brothers, we can't eat other people's food for free.
"Everyone, let's go to the yard and see if there's anything we can do to help!"
When several people heard this, they all rushed out.
Those who ran fast got the job of chopping wood.
Those who run slowly can only help sweep the yard.
Ye Lao Si stood up and followed him out, saying repeatedly, "There's not much work to do at home, so I really don't need your help. It's not right to ask guests to do the work."
"What's the point of being a guest? Don't you consider us brothers anymore?" Ma Ge said as he chopped wood. "But you, hurry back to the house and be careful not to bump into anything."
Boss Ye just bought a truckload of firewood two days ago and has not had time to clean it up yet after piling it up in the yard.
Now, several people took turns to work, and soon they had chopped all the firewood piled in the corner, and then put it neatly into the woodshed.
Finally, he swept the entire yard and put everything in order.
When Mrs. Ye finished cooking the first dish and brought it out, she thought for a moment that she had walked into someone else's yard.
Why has this yard changed so much?
Looking around, I found that those people were sweating profusely and were doing the final finishing touches.
"Stop it, wash your face quickly and go into the house to prepare for dinner."
As Mrs. Ye spoke, she walked into the house and put the plate on the table.
For Mrs. Ye, the most time-consuming part of cooking is washing and preparing the vegetables. Once she starts cooking, the process picks up speed immediately.
Soon, ten dishes were placed on the table.
Even so, Mrs. Ye wiped her hands on her apron a little embarrassedly and said, "Thank you for thinking of my fourth son. You finally got a day off and made an appointment to come and see him.
“I didn’t know you were coming today, and I didn’t prepare anything in advance.
“So there aren’t any big dishes that require a lot of time to prepare, just small stir-fries and cold dishes, so please don’t be surprised.
"Eat quickly, I'll get you some wine."
"Madam You, your words will leave us speechless.
“We are very grateful to you for not despising us and cooking so many dishes for us.
"Please stop working. We still have work to do tomorrow, and some of us have to go on night patrol. We absolutely cannot afford to drink."
When Mrs. Ye heard that it was because of something important, she gave up and said, "Then you can eat more dishes, and I will go to serve you some rice.
"There are dumplings in the kitchen. If you want some, go get them yourself."
After bringing over a bowl of rice, Mrs. Ye closed the door for them and left.
As soon as Mrs. Ye left, everyone stopped being reserved.
Chopsticks flew across the table as everyone devoured the food.
Even during the meal, Ye Lao Si was almost the only one talking, and no one else had time to speak.
The dishes on the table were quickly eaten up.
When Ye Lao Si saw that all the food was eaten, he quickly stood up and said, "If it's not enough, I'll go to the kitchen and bring you some dumplings."
Brother Ma grabbed him.
"Uh..." He burped before saying, "Say goodbye, I'm so full, I can't even bear to hear the word 'dumpling' right now."
The others also echoed, holding their stomachs.
"I really can't eat anymore."
"I'm not lying to you!"
"It's mainly because Madam You's cooking is so delicious. By the time I came to my senses, I was already stuffed."
"I mainly think it's a waste if the plate is not cleaned up."
"Yeah, me too. This is Miss You's cooking, I have to eat it all even if I die!"
"You guys are so mean. You better not damage your stomach." Ye Lao Si was speechless. He went out to ask Mrs. Ye for some hawthorn meatballs that Qingtian occasionally ate. He came back and shared them with them so that they could digest them quickly.
"It's okay. We still have to patrol tonight. Just go out for a few laps and you'll be fine. Let alone these meals, even if you eat a weight, you can digest it all."
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, they finally had time to chat again.
After chatting for a while, seeing that it was getting late, several people stood up and said goodbye.
He even helped clean up the table before leaving.
