Wang Zhaozhao opened her mouth wide enough to fit an egg in, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Wang Sibing changed from shock to admiration.
What you mean by "something happened" is that the bride saw you, the matchmaker, and went crazy and wanted to scratch your face, right?
"Grandma, I don't want to go to the banquet." Wang Zhaozhao said to Xie Ailian pitifully.
"I've received gifts from friends and family, but you don't want to eat?" Can Xie Ailian indulge her?
Wang Zhaozhao pouted, looking like she was about to cry. "Then is it okay if I skip lunch?"
“…”
Xie Ailian, who was sewing shoe soles, raised her hand and rubbed the needle on her head, then gave her a look.
He lowered his head and passed the needle through the shoe awl to pierce the stitches. As he pulled the thread, he said lightly, "There's a sweet potato and eggs in the pot at the back."
Wang Zhaozhao's eyes lit up and she grinned widely, "Thank you, grandma."
The voice is so sweet.
This caused Xie Ailian to sneer in disdain, "You're so sweet when you have something to eat."
"Hehe..." Wang Zhaozhao didn't care and just laughed.
The steamed sweet potato was quite large. She wanted to divide it into four portions, so that each person could have a little. However, Xie Ailian despised her again, saying, "We're going to a banquet. We didn't go hungry for two meals beforehand like others did. We even filled our stomachs in advance? Isn't that stupid?"
Hearing this, Wang Zhaozhao was so moved.
It's no exaggeration to say that tears came to my eyes.
"Ah, hot, hot, hot..." She was so hungry that she couldn't wait to take a bite. It was hot for her.
I eat a sweet potato and an egg until I'm 80% full, and then drink a glass of water and I'm completely full.
At half past one, someone shouted from outside, saying that the meal was ready to begin.
When Xie Ailian and the others left, the person who called out for them asked, "Where is your granddaughter?" Xie Ailian replied, "She came back from school, was tired, ate something, and fell asleep. Don't worry about her."
Wang Zhaozhao, who was eating sweet potatoes in the kitchen, was feeling very happy. Suddenly, she heard the system ask her, "Host, are you very touched?"
"Um."
Wang Zhaozhao never dared to imagine that her grandmother would steam sweet potatoes and an egg for her in advance.
You know, generally when there is a banquet in the village, people think that since they have come to pay their respects to each other, they can go and eat, so why not go? When your family holds a banquet, others also bring their children to eat.
Besides, it's a banquet after all, there should be some meat dishes, right?!
"That's really not your grandma's style..." The system mechanically revealed doubts.
"Get out of here." Wang Zhaozhao gave it a direct shield.
Even if her grandmother is afraid that she will vomit again, or that she is not full and will have to look for something to eat when she comes back, it is better not to go. She can indirectly show off. So what?
She thought of these things and prepared food for her, which is very nice.
What's more, there is an egg.
After roasting the fire alone for a while, Wang Zhaozhao moved a high stool over to use as a desk and started doing his homework and studying.
Wang Baojia and Wang Weiguo didn't come, so I thought they were going to the banquet and ignored them.
When Xie Ailian and her friends came back from their successful meal, they saw Wang Zhaozhao studying alone in the kitchen.
"Girl Zhao, the sun is out. Don't stay in the house all the time. Go out for a walk. Isn't tomorrow a holiday?" Xie Ailian said.
Just now at the banquet at Wang Erlaizi's house, she had indeed pretended to be successful, so she was in a good mood.
Since they didn't bring their children to the banquet, naturally someone would ask, and her answer remained the same.
In addition to saying that Wang Zhaozhao is a scholar, it also indirectly shows that she has a broad mind and will not regard eating at a banquet as a sucker.
He is a particular person!
"Okay, then I'll go up the mountain and pick up some firewood. I haven't picked up firewood for a long time." Wang Zhaozhao glanced at the sunny day outside and put down his pen.
"Gather some dry wood and leaves to start a fire."
"good."
Wang Zhaozhao had no objection. Winter was suitable for burning hard firewood. Her grandparents and fourth uncle started stockpiling firewood as early as autumn, so there was no shortage of firewood at home.
She is a farmer with a hard-working character. She never goes up the mountain empty-handed, even if it means pulling a handful of grass and throwing it into the pigpen or stepping on pig manure. In short, she will never go up the mountain empty-handed.
He carried a bamboo basket, an axe and a small hoe.
Wang Zhaozhao decided to go into the mountain on the right side of the village end. There were two valleys at the top of the mountain, and it was a bamboo mountain. He wanted to try and see if he could dig up some winter bamboo shoots.
It is okay to dig winter bamboo shoots as long as you can dig them. When spring comes, the brigade will arrange people to patrol the mountains. Digging spring bamboo shoots privately is a mistake. If caught, you will be punished, and in serious cases you may be sent to labor camp.
"Sister Zhao..." Not long after going out, Wang Zhaozhao ran into Wang Weiguo head-on.
I don’t know where the little guy went. His face was red and there was sweat on his forehead. Uh, there were some black spots on his face and his hair was a little wet.
"Have you been in a rat's nest? You're so dirty."
"Hey, come with me."
When Wang Weiguo saw her "equipment", he grinned, raised his hand and wiped the sweat off his face, successfully adding a stroke to the black map on his face, and pulled her to run.
Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”
This is not the mountain I want to go to.
The mountain is named opposite to where their village is concentrated.
Crossing the bridge over the river dam, there is a small path and a small ditch in the middle of the rice field.
Then there are the mountains.
The mountain is divided into two sides. One side is divided into trapezoidal pieces of land, and the other side is a rocky mountain with a stone staircase path that winds upward.
When you reach the top of the mountain, the land on the other side is still land, but on the other side of the rocky mountain, there is a large open rice field. Going further up, there are more sloping land.
"We're here." said Wang Weiguo.
Wang Zhaozhao nodded, knowing they had arrived without him saying anything.
The rice fields had been harvested, so the water had been drained, leaving them bare with only some rotten rice straw roots visible.
Wang Xingwu and a few others were at the edge of a rice field leaning against the mountain.
