Chapter 28



I was suddenly single again that night and it took me a long time to fall asleep.

Habit is really a scary thing.

I got up late the next day. When I got up, Lin Xinghua had already prepared the meal. He had already eaten and was in the yard tidying up the cork on his hoe.

"Son, the rice is in the pot for you. Eat it by yourself later. I'm going to the field now."

"Grandpa, where are you going?"

"To the fields." Just as he finished speaking, he remembered that she asked this question and it seemed to mean this.

"You're asking me where I'm going, right?"

Ye Xiaozhen nodded repeatedly.

Lin Xinghua pointed with a smile, "Look, it's on the slope opposite. It's far away. If you have any problems, just call me. I can hear you."

He banged the wooden plug into the hoe head a few times to fix it, and then muttered, "I have to go fix the road. When your uncle and his friends come back to help with the wheat harvest, if they see that the road is easy to walk on, they will mention it again."

Oh, Uncle 꺘 comes back to help, and I have to prepare everything for you?

They are still helping. They are blaming the old man for a good road. How can they repair it themselves?

Ye Xiaozhen was complaining in her heart.

After dinner, she started to make noodles, steamed buns and sugar buns.

I got more this time, and I plan to make a second cage.

There are steamed buns, sugar buns and sour cowpea buns.

It was ready by noon.

The two scoops and two baskets at home were full, and there was some left in the steamer.

In addition, she cooked rice in a rice cooker and then put the rice into a steamer at home, creating the illusion that she had steamed the rice in the steamer.

The dishes were simple, as their house was surrounded by their own private plots, and they could eat whatever was ready.

Ye Xiaozhen can cook luxurious meals as well as light porridge and stir-fried dishes.

I made a crispy smashed cucumber and fried some water spinach.

These are all seasonal vegetables.

As soon as Lin Xinghua came back, he smelled the odor of steamed buns. He put down the hoe, washed the mud off his hands, and hurried into the house.

"Oh, is this all done?"

Ye Xiaozhen nodded.

"You are such a...I thought you got up late tonight and had to do the laundry, so I thought you would do it in the morning and I would do it with you in the afternoon. I didn't expect you to finish it and still have so much to do."

Ye Xiaozhen whispered, "Grandpa, the clothes are not washed."

"Oh, you haven't washed your clothes yet? Then grandpa will wash them for you this afternoon."

Ye Xiaozhen: “…” How can this be possible?

She doesn't have the habit of having others wash her clothes.

"Xiaozhen, wash yourself. Grandpa, come and have dinner."

Lin Xinghua couldn't believe it and looked at her pretending to cook, "You've even prepared the rice?"

What about 녦놊?

There are two more dishes.

Capable, this kid is so capable.

After lunch, Ye Xiaozhen hurried to wash her clothes, fearing that if she was too slow her husband would snatch them away, which would be too embarrassing.

After lunch, Lin Xinghua and Ye Xiaozhen carried the table to the yard, and then carried the basket filled with steamed buns to the table, preparing to sell the steamed buns.

Soon the neighbors came to visit.

He is the village chief.

"I saw smoke coming out of your chimney this morning, so I knew you were steaming steamed buns today."

"Hehe, your eyes are still good."

"Give me a steamed bun and a bao."

"We have two kinds of dumplings today, one with sugar and sesame filling, and one with sour cowpea filling. Which one do you want?"

"There are two kinds. What are the prices?"

"Same, one cent."

"Then give me two."

"Okay, kid, hurry up and get ready."

He packed four steamed buns and gave them to the village chief. The village chief took out the money, but Lin Xinghua refused to take it no matter what.

"Take it and eat it. I want money. If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't know if I would survive."

"Hey, Lin Laoguai, you are saying these things. I am the village chief, and that is what I should do. Here, take the money. It is not difficult for you to make some money."

"You, I can accept whatever you say. When my two kids get married, I will invite you to sit at the table."

"Hahaha, fine, I will definitely have a seat at their wedding." He looked at Ye Xiaozhen and sighed, "This kid really had it easy. He finally made it through. He's only been at your house for a few days, and he seems to have gained weight?"

Ye Xiaozhen touched her face subconsciously.

The village chief laughed, "Silly, you know I'm talking about her."

Ye Xiaozhen: "..." In your eyes, how stupid am I?

"Lin Laoguai, if you really want to thank me, you should not only thank me, but also thank the people who carried the board that night. Especially your neighbor Xiaoliu. If he had gone to the toilet in the middle of the night, you would have had to float up from the pond by yourself."

Lin Xinghua was still apprehensive when he heard this. "Yes, yes, we have to thank them. When they get married, I will invite you all to sit at the table."

He then remembered that the person he should thank the most was Xiaoliu next door.

Ye Xiaozhen had no memory of falling into the pond, because she was unconscious during that time, so she didn't know who picked her up.

It turned out to be the old lady Liu next door and her child.

After the village chief left, people came one after another to buy steamed buns, and old lady Liu from next door also came.

She was a powerful mother-in-law, had given birth to six sons, was confident, and had money.

I buy several at a time.

"My kids are eating your steamed buns. Give me a steamed bun and I'll take it."

"Why do you need so much today?"

"I have a big family. They said two is enough. They want to eat more. My family's dinner tonight is steamed buns with porridge."

Someone joked with her, "Sister Liu, are you afraid of having to go to the toilet in the middle of the night if you drink porridge at night?"

"Let's go ahead. It's winter now, are you afraid of freezing your butt? Come on, Xiaozhen, put it on for me."

Ye Xiaozhen quickly filled a steamed bun for him.

Lin Xinghua asked her to pack another sugar bag, and he gave the packed sugar bag to Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu just took out the money for a steamed bun and said, "I didn't want to pack it. I put it in the wrong place."

Lin Xinghua said: "That's right, today's buns are filled with sugar and sesame. I won't charge you any money, but you can take them home and try them for free."

"Huh? What's going on?"

"Hey, your little six saved my kid, and he hasn't thanked you yet. Take this bag and eat it. When my two kids get married, I'll have to invite your little six to sit at the table."

She just talked about this with some old sisters yesterday, and she expressed her gratitude today.

Old Mrs. Liu smiled from ear to ear.

"In my opinion, if anyone should thank Xiaoliu, it should be Ye Guo and his wife. When he saved Xiaozhen, Xiaozhen was still their daughter."

"That's enough for the two of them. It's Xiaozhen who should thank Lin An. Sister Liu, take it quickly."

"Okay, I'll be polite then."

There were more customers from the neighboring village that day, so they made a lot and served on a first-come, first-served basis. It wasn't long before they were all sold out.

That night, Lin Xinghua gave bags to all of Ye Xiaozhen and the other four guys.

Excluding the gift bag, I received 200 yuan today.

Ye Xiaozhen gave 10 yuan to her grandfather and took 10 yuan for herself.

The old man was crying and laughing while holding the money.

Is this another way of giving him flour money and hard work fee?
