Everyone laughed as they listened to the tender voices of the children.

An hour later, it was almost midnight, and plumes of green smoke were already rising from the village.

Honghua had two stoves cooking at the same time and the dishes were almost ready.

Lin Qingqing said to her mother, "Mom, I asked Honghua to make some more chicken and braised pork and potatoes. Please take some to our neighbors on the left and right. We've been here for a while, but we haven't met them in person yet."

"good."

Lin's mother handed the child to Zhang Xiaoli and went to the kitchen.

When she came out, she was holding two large porcelain bowls of meat, both of about the same size.

After going out, she put the bowl of meat in her hand at the door of her house, then walked to the left and knocked on the neighbor's old wooden door.

The door was not closed and a woman poked her head out from the kitchen.

She looked at Lin's mother with some displeasure.

Mother Lin handed forward the large bowl of meat in her hand with a warm smile on her face.

"Sister, I moved in next door. We're having dinner today, and since you have kids, we brought a bowl of food over. Please pour it into your own bowl. We're waiting for you to use it."

In rural areas, it is normal for neighbors to send vegetables to each other. Since Lin Qingqing's family just moved in, this action is even more natural.

After hearing what Lin's mother said, Zhang Guiyun hurried out of the kitchen, took the large porcelain bowl from Lin's mother's hand, and said politely: "Why didn't you tell me that your family is inviting people to dinner today so that I can go and help."

Lin's mother pointed to her own yard and said, "Some older people came to help this afternoon, and they are almost done."

"Then sister, wait a moment."

Zhang Guiyun took a look at the big bowl of meat and quickly walked to the kitchen to empty the bowl.

"Sister, your family just moved in. If you need any help, just let me know."

"Okay, okay."

Lin's mother took her own bowl and left with a smile.

She brought another bowl to her neighbor's house.

The family had dinner early and now the whole family was eating around the table.

Hearing someone knocking on the door, the little grandson of the family ran to the gate of the courtyard and opened it.

Seeing that it was Lin's mother, he shouted towards the main room: "Mom, it's the aunt next door."

The eldest daughter-in-law, Sun Huixin, came out quickly.

She had a smile on her face, and when she saw the bowl of meat and vegetables in Lin's mother's hand, she knew the purpose of Lin's mother's visit.

There was a commotion next door this afternoon, and a car pulled up a large round table. It was obvious that they were inviting people to dinner tonight.

She was the first to ask, "Big sister, have you eaten yet? If not, come to our house and eat."

Mother Lin smiled and shook her head: "We are having dinner today. We just moved here, so please take good care of us in the future."

As she spoke, she handed the bowl to the woman.

The woman did not refuse, as this was a common occurrence in the village.

Among neighbors, whoever has something delicious to eat will bring some to the neighbors.

"Your family are all soldiers, so capable that you don't need us to take care of you."

She took the bowl, quickly went to the kitchen to exchange it, and put two or three eggs in it.

Mother Lin looked at the eggs in the bowl, and the smile on her face became even more intense: "Look, big sister, why are you being so polite?"

Sun Huixin smiled and said, "These are from our own chickens. You can eat them."

"Let's talk again some other time." Lin's mother said hello to the other party and turned away.

She just heard the children cheering: "Mom, we have meat to eat tonight."

Lin's mother smiled and said that the neighbors next door were large in number and must be living a tight life. How could they eat meat every other day? Naturally, the child was craving meat.

She thought about the time when she was in Shanshi Village and could only eat meat once a year.
