The sky in the west was filled with red clouds, and wisps of white smoke rose from the chimney. People in the kitchen were already preparing dinner.

Today, they had brought back game from the mountains. They cooked a big pot of braised rabbit meat with the rabbits they hunted. The ingredients were generous, and the meat was boiling in the pot. The smell was delicious. After cleaning a few chickens, they put them in the pot to make braised chicken. They stewed until chopsticks could be inserted into the meat, and then they could tear it apart with their hands. On the chopping board was a large basin of chopped grass carp, waiting to be put into the pot to make pickled fish. In addition, they also fried a few side dishes. Needless to say, tonight's dinner would be very rich.

As soon as the meat in the kitchen was cooked, the aroma spread out, and people three miles away could smell it. The group of children playing in the yard stopped playing and all ran over. The big and small ones all leaned on the windowsill, staring at the big pot with fragrant smells and swallowing their saliva.

"It smells so good..."

"Brother, what's in it?"

"It's meat." "

I want to eat it."

"Yeah." I want to eat it too.

Cao Xiangnan, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the conversation of the group of children outside and was very happy to see such a group of lively people. Even the man sitting in front of the stove watching the fire had a faint smile in his eyes.

The temperature in the kitchen was too high, and Cao Xiangnan was sweating all over. He pulled the towel around his neck and casually wiped the sweat from his forehead. The two men didn't think there was anything wrong with working in the kitchen. They worked here, and their wives went to rest in the shade.

Now Master Feng and his men have built another place to live over there, so after discussion, they also invited two other brothers to cook there. Now they no longer come back to live in the bamboo house, so naturally they don't come back to eat here. The bamboo house is occupied by several men who are in charge of Cao Gang's house. Among the four or five people, two are from Caojia Village, and the remaining three or two live here.

Sun Bailian is now much more relaxed without having to cook for dozens of people. Just a few people can cook.

Today, we will have dinner here in Wanfeng, and we won't cook at home. Everyone will come here to eat when the time comes. Cao Silang was in charge of the kitchen, and her husband was helping. They didn't need to go in at all. They washed the fruits and pickled them according to Cao Silang's instructions. Now they were free, and Sun Bailian was happy to sit here and talk with Wanfeng.

"Well, the date has been found, it will be seven days later. The house will be built in a few days, and we will move in here." When talking about her own house, Sun Bailian's happiness was beyond words. In this way, their family could live face to face with Wanfeng's family.

Xiangnan was in charge of their house, and he basically didn't have to take care of it. Even if he wanted to, he didn't know how to do it, because his husband was there for everything. On weekdays, he only prepared three meals a day for the workers. Now that there were fewer people, he didn't even have to prepare so many meals.

He really likes the house in Wanfeng. When his house is built little by little, although it is a little different from the one in Wanfeng, he still likes it very much. Sun Bailian didn't expect that he would be able to live in a big house so soon. He was very happy to think that the house would be built soon and he could move in.

"Oh, that's great. In this way, our two families will live close to each other." Qi Wanfeng was also happy when he heard it. He thought that it would be convenient for them to travel back and forth if they lived close to each other in the future. "

That's right. If there is anything in your family in the future, you can shout and I can hear you." Sun Bailian laughed as he said this. He said with some emotion, "I never thought that we would live face to face with each other and live in such a big house." It was like a dream now, but he knew it was not a dream.

"That's right." Qi Wanfeng also felt that. The curve of the corner of his mouth was so obvious. He reached out and touched his bulging belly. The baby will be out in a few months. This child is lucky. He has everything when he is born.

Now that he has his husband, he doesn't have to worry about the baby being born in the cold winter and not being able to survive. He thinks the child will grow up safely and healthily.

The sound of horse hooves came back, and the people who went to the town to sell food also came back.

"Uncle Sun, Dapeng, you are back." Hearing the sound outside, Sun Bailian got up and walked over to help move the things from the car. Wanfeng wanted to come to help, but he quickly called out, "We can come. This one is blocking the road and it's not good to see the road." I can get something else! Qi Wanfeng was helpless and didn't want to help move anymore.

"Yeah, we can do it alone, Wanfeng, you don't need to move." Cao Dapeng followed.

"Dad, Dad..." Two children came over, Cao Dapeng patted the two children on the head with his free hand, "Go play." After the two children called Dad, they ran to their friends again.

"You little guys, don't come here, it's so hot here, hurry up, hurry up." Sun Bailian saw a group of children lying here and staring at the kitchen. He also smelled the smell, and seeing a group of children being fed, he couldn't help but laugh.

Qi Wanfeng hurried over to drive away the group of little ones. Seeing that everyone had a red face and sweat all over their foreheads, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he asked the older ones to take the younger ones to a cooler place. "Xiangzi, Kangkang, take the younger brothers to drink some water." He said.

"Okay."

"Okay."

"Let's go, we're going to drink some water."

"Don't worry, Uncle Xiangnan said we'll have dinner here tonight, and we'll have meat to eat later."

"Oh."

Now that they have come to Uncle Xiangnan's place, their lives are getting better day by day. They have meat to eat every meal, and they can eat their fill. They have a big house to live in and good clothes to wear. Xiangzi's heart is also at ease. He knows that his younger brother likes this place very much, and Uncle Momo treats them very well. He also likes this place very much. This is their home.

He wanted to help take care of his younger brothers. His uncle said that they would have a younger brother when the weather got cold, and he would help take care of his younger brother then. When he grows up, he will follow his uncle to make money, and make a lot of money to support his younger brothers. Little did Xiangzi know that in his little heart, raising his younger brothers had become his small responsibility and great goal.

A group of children, the older ones took care of the younger ones, and the greedy ones kept looking back every few steps.

"Xiangnan, what are you guys making? It smells so good." Cao Dapeng put the things in his hand on the table, and walked towards the place where the fragrance was coming from with his burly body, and asked loudly.

Sun Yanshan followed in behind him, and after putting the things away, he also came over curiously to take a look.

"I guessed that you guys should come back this time. I went hunting with Cao Gang today. This pot is rabbit meat, there is chicken here, I cooked a fish, and fried a few other dishes. You all should stay for dinner tonight. I have prepared meals for everyone." Cao Xiangnan saw Cao Dapeng and Sun Yanshan coming in, and he opened the lids to show them one by one, telling them that he had prepared their portions, and these big pots were full of meat.

"Hmm, it smells so good, I won't be polite then." Cao Dapeng didn't want to leave just by smelling the smell, and said bluntly, "I'll go back and call Ah Hong and my mother to come over, and I won't cook at home."

"Uncle Sun, go and get Grandpa and Grandma over too. It will be more lively if we eat together." Cao Xiangnan knew that Sun Yanshan still had his father and mother at home. The two elders rarely came to his place. He knew that they were old and Grandpa Sun Ji was not very active, so he rarely went out. Sun Yanshan rarely stayed at his place to eat and would rush home every day.

"This..." Sun Yanshan hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, "Okay, I'll go back and pick them up."

"Yeah." Cao Xiangnan scooped up a few pieces of rabbit meat with a spoon, took a piece with his hand and put it in his mouth, took a bite and thought it tasted okay, and asked, "Try it and see how it tastes."

"Delicious." Cao Dapeng nodded, not salty or bland, the taste was just right, and the taste was particularly fragrant.

Sun Yanshan ate a piece and nodded, and later he and Cao Dapeng went back to pick up the people from home to come together, and the family didn't cook, and the whole family came to Cao Xiangnan's house to eat.

At this time, the brothers who worked at home also went home from work. There was a lot of meat cooked, so Cao Xiangnan prepared a portion for everyone. The children of several families stayed at his place to eat, and the adults naturally stayed with him.

As for the brothers whose husbands and children were at home and wanted to go home, Cao Xiangnan used a bowl to fill each of them with a bowl of meat to take home. Seeing that they were still pushing and shoving, he frowned and said, "I have prepared your portions, stop pushing and shoving, take it back and give it to the children at home."

"Okay, okay, thank you Silang, we will take it away." Smelling the delicious smell, the brothers of several families stopped pushing and thanked and went home together with their baskets.

Two large tables were set up in the yard for dinner, and adults, children and the elderly sat down together, enjoying the warm and noisy atmosphere. A group of children sat in a row, nibbling the meat in their bowls fiercely, not even making noise, just eating. The old man ate the soft and fragrant meat in his bowl, looking at the group of children with cloudy eyes, and his face was full of wrinkles when he smiled.

The adults had to pay attention to the children and chatted with each other while eating.

Cao Xiangnan sat down in the empty seat next to Wanfeng, and did not forget to pick up food for his wife while eating, serving her very well. Maybe he himself didn't know that he had such a side that knew how to serve others. Maybe it was just that there was no such person before, but now there is, he is willing to do everything for this person.

Qi Wanfeng's appetite is very good now. After five months, his belly has grown day by day at a speed visible to the naked eye. He has gained weight. He remembered that when he was pregnant with An'an, his belly was almost invisible. When he saw so much meat in the bowl, he whispered, "Husband, I've had enough. Don't pinch me."

"You are too thin. Eat more." Cao Xiangnan's eyes were full of smiles. He just thought that Wanfeng was embarrassed.

He knew that Wanfeng's appetite had increased a lot recently and he could eat a lot. There were a lot of snacks in the house, not for the children, but for Wanfeng. They were afraid that he would be hungry, so they prepared some snacks so that he could fill his stomach at any time.

Qi Wanfeng thought that his husband must have fed him too much meat, which was why he was so fat. While complaining in his heart, he also felt endless sweetness. But he didn't think about it. When An An was born, she was so tiny that he almost doubted that he could not raise the child. Fortunately, the child was raised safely and now can run and jump. When

others noticed them, they also had blessing smiles in their eyes.

After dinner, everyone helped to clean up the table and wash the dishes before going home with their husbands and children.
