Chen Dazhu is the full name of He Liu's son. He Liu's son is just 8 years old this year, the same age as Song Da Niang's eldest grandson.

The child's words were full of sarcasm, because they all thought pigs were dirty, so they thought offal was even dirtier, and saying that He Liu ate offal meant that he ate dirty things.

"Go away, what do you little brats know?" He Liu didn't know the reaction of her son playing outside the door, but angrily waved the meat hook in her hand at the child on the courtyard wall.

"Oh!" The child made a face, showing no fear of He Liu's threat.

He Liu was still angry, but Su Yun'er pulled her back, her eyebrows curving and a smile playing on her lips: "Why are you arguing with a child? He doesn't know any better. You wait, I'll get revenge for you."

"What are you going to do? You're not going to hit him, are you?" He Liu watched Su Yun'er turn and go into the house, thinking that she was going to stand up for her, and quickly tried to stop her.

Then they saw Su Yun'er bring out an iron griddle from the kitchen and set it up on the makeshift stove in the corner next to her.

That's where the Chen family had a barbecue last night. It hasn't been demolished yet, and it's coming in handy today.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Su Yun'er lit a small stove, brought out a large plate of fatty intestines from the house, and began to fry the fatty intestines in front of everyone.

As soon as the large intestines touched the hot iron griddle, they sizzled and began to crackle and ooze oil. In no time, a small pool of oil could be seen in the middle of the griddle. At the same time, the aroma of the braised large intestines was released under the heat, making the Chen family courtyard even more fragrant with meat.

The aroma rises, and there's a slight breeze today, blowing just in the direction of the boy sitting on the fence.

The boy sniffed the air and couldn't help but swallow.

"The pork intestines will be fried soon. I'll go inside and get some garlic slices and green peppers to eat with them," Su Yun'er said, deliberately raising her voice.

At this time, the saplings and grass also returned.

"Oh, brother, it's fried pork intestines!" Little Grass spotted the target as soon as she entered the yard.

She ran closer and saw that the pork intestines were still sizzling with oil, but they already had a caramelized aroma. She and Xiaoshu, undeterred by the heat, picked up a piece, blew on it, and ate it.

The aroma and the real-life samples were right in front of them, making the children with the twins drool.

Unlike adults, children don't have a concept of whether the water is dirty or not; they are simply captivated by the aroma of food.

"Do you want some too?" Little Grass asked her friends.

The children all nodded, and Xiaocao said, "Alright then, you can eat the rest. My mom said today is to thank everyone for taking care of our family, so please eat, don't be shy!"

As soon as Xiaocao said this, the children inside and outside the courtyard rushed in, worried that they wouldn't get any food if they were late.

Meanwhile, the saplings and grasses surrounded the griddle, imitating Su Yun'er as she fried fatty intestines.

Seeing that there were many people, Xiaocao told the children to line up and that each person could only eat one piece at a time.

"We need to save some for the children who come later."

As Su Yun'er came out of the kitchen, she heard Xiao Cao giving instructions to the children in a very serious manner.

"Shanhe's wife, look at your daughter, she's so smart and mature for her age." He Liu nudged Su Yun'er with her elbow enviously, "Will she be my daughter-in-law?"

"Auntie, don't be silly. They're still so young. It's too early for them to be getting married." Su Yun'er looked at Xiao Cao, her smile widening.

Of course, a mother is happy when her daughter is outstanding.

After feeling proud, Su Yun'er looked up at the boy sitting on the wall. He was sitting alone on the wall, watching the children far away from the courtyard eating pork intestines and talking about how delicious they were. She swallowed her saliva again and again, but because she was too proud to admit it, she was too embarrassed to come down.

Su Yun'er ignored him. This boy was rude and ill-mannered. He came here expecting to eat her meat, yet he still dared to make sarcastic remarks in front of her. She didn't want to pay any more attention to such an ill-mannered person.

"Xiaoshu, what did the village head say?" Su Yun'er asked Xiaoshu.

"Uncle Village Head said, 'I understand. Thank you for your mother's kindness. I can't refuse such a kind invitation. I'll definitely come. I'll invite everyone to come and join the fun later.'" Xiaoshu repeated the Village Head's words.

"Little Tree, what does 'I can't refuse your kind invitation' mean?" He Liu didn't understand the idiom.

The little tree shook its head: "I don't know."

The little tree has never been to school.

"Then why did you say you couldn't refuse such hospitality?" He Liu continued to ask.

"I wrote it down; these are Uncle Village Head's exact words," Xiaoshu said earnestly.

"This child has a good memory. Here, Auntie will give you a piece of meat." He Liu picked a piece of pork rib from the bowl and handed it to Xiao Shu. Xiao Shu happily took it and ran to the side to gnaw on the meat bone.

Su Yun'er saw and remembered the performance of the little tree and grass today: She had to start earning money to send the children to school. These two smart children must study!

On one side, the children had just finished dividing up a large plate of braised pork intestines when the adults arrived one after another.

Everyone brought their own bowls. Some bowls contained roasted sweet potatoes, some contained raw rice, some contained eggs, and some carried firewood. In short, almost no one came empty-handed.

Old Mrs. Chen knew these neighbors best. She greeted them one by one, thanking this person and that person. After everyone made room for each other, He Liu called for everyone to line up and share the meat. For a while, the courtyard was filled with laughter and joy.

As the hostess, Su Yun'er also came to the door to greet the guests.

At the entrance of the courtyard, a man carrying a large bag happened to be passing by. Seeing the commotion at the Chen family's gate, he stopped to ask what was going on.

One of the villagers was happily drinking a bowl of meat soup when he told them that "Shanhe's wife found a wild boar and is sharing the meat and soup with the villagers today."

The man carrying the bag was initially surprised, then overjoyed: "This is great news! Can I ask for a bowl of meat too?"

Su Yun'er overheard this and said, "Of course you can, but we don't have enough bowls at home. You can bring one from home."

"Okay, okay, thank you so much. I'll go home and get the bowl now." With that, the man started to carry the bag on his back again.

But he was too thin and the bag was heavy, and he almost fell over because of it. Su Yun'er and the person drinking soup reacted quickly and helped him up.
