Hua Xuguo did not dare to oppose his mother's opinion. Besides, he would not have to do heavy farm work under the sun, which was at least a benefit.
The old man doesn't care about anything and only listens to the old woman's opinions. His status in this family is basically equivalent to that of an invisible workhorse.
Originally he was somewhat patriarchal, but ever since Wan Qingliu became the financial pillar of the family, he has become completely obedient.
Seeing Hua Wanli coming over, Wang Dajuan remembered the bicycle ticket in the morning. She suddenly felt uncomfortable and her face looked much worse.
"Grandpa, grandma, it's time for dinner!"
Hua Wanli shouted.
The wooden lunch basket was opened, revealing two aluminum lunch boxes. Hua Wanli took them out and handed them to Wan Qingliu and Hua Tiansheng in turn.
As soon as the lid of the box was opened, the aroma of meat wafted out instantly, and the mixed smell of oil and rice aroused the most primitive desires in the stomachs of everyone present.
Wang Dajuan's stomach was rumbling, and she was upset. Her mentality suddenly collapsed, and she said sarcastically:
"The food is so good? The conditions are pretty good, no wonder you can get a bicycle ticket! That's right..."
Having said this, she deliberately glanced at Hua Wanli and said something with a hint of meaning:
"No matter how good the conditions are, not everyone in the family can enjoy them!"
Bicycle ticket? Hua Wanli was a little confused. When did her grandma get a bicycle ticket?
Wan Qingliu put down the straw hat that was fanning the wind, took the lunch box, took a few big mouthfuls of rice, and then responded slowly.
"My family doesn't need your concern, but you, an outsider, certainly won't be able to enjoy it."
During the busy farming season, people's physical exertion is high. At this time, every household will try their best to ensure the best meals for the working population, otherwise people will not be able to bear it.
The Hua family naturally took out the meat from their home to provide nutrition for the labor force.
There is no fresh meat because it is difficult to explain, but Lao Hua’s family has indeed stocked up a lot of bacon.
The Hua family not only stews bacon, but also uses a lot of oil in other stir-fries, and the rice is always filling. If it were another family, they wouldn't be able to eat as much rice as they want, and would have to add some sweet potatoes to top it off.
With such a comparison, the gap naturally emerges.
This is also one of the reasons why everyone is jealous of the Hua family's good conditions. During the busy farming season, everyone eats sweet potatoes, but this family only eats meat, which makes people hate them.
Wan Qingliu didn't want to attract attention, but since his family had the conditions, did he really have to put his family at risk for these empty promises?
I just don't care about it anymore. It's not me who is greedy anyway.
Wang Dajuan rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, "Who cares?"
Hua Wanli didn't understand why Fang Jianzhong's mother had a quarrel with her grandmother, but she didn't care. She watched her grandparents start eating and took out two bowls of mung bean soup from the wooden lunch box.
"Grandpa, grandma, we made some mung bean soup at home. It's sunny now, so drinking some mung bean soup can help cool you down."
The old man took the bowl, looked up and said with a smile: "Lili, you have worked hard."
Wan Qingliu was also thirsty, so he gulped down the soup from the edge of the bowl. He felt the pent-up heat in his body disappear immediately, and he felt refreshed.
Wan Qingliu said, "It's hot outside, go back quickly, don't get a heat stroke!"
"Hey!" Hua Wanli collected the lunch box and empty bowl and prepared to go home.
On the way home, a tall and thin young man called Hua Wanli.
"Hello, comrade, please wait a moment!"
