Yan Shuojing said as he ate, "Brother He is really smart. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to eat well or get enough if we followed them. You know what, Comrade Han doesn't look very old, but he looks very mature. He is very mature and steady in everything he does, especially his cooking, which is really delicious."
He Zhen didn't answer, but thought to himself that he would help the girl more in the future.
The two of them took a break after dinner and did not wash the dishes immediately, mainly because they did not want to meet those people. When they went to the cafeteria after resting, they happened to see Huang Xue secretly opening the pot. When she saw that there was nothing in the pot, she cursed under her breath, and then she saw He Zhen and the others coming in.
She gave Yan Shuojing a sidelong glance and ran out.
Yan Shuojing didn't care. They washed the dishes in the kitchen and went out to take them to Han Wanying.
Han Wanying happened to be sitting in the yard. She opened the door, took the things from He Zhen and the others, and planned to go to rest.
The next day, Han Wanying got up earlier than usual and prepared today's lunch and breakfast. She kneaded the dough last night and planned to steam some buns today, which she would eat with some side dishes at noon.
Han Wanying doesn't like eating cold dishes and cold rice. She used to cook rice in the morning and keep it in the pot to keep it warm. She would then finish her work early and come back to eat.
But Li Zhaodi has joined their team now, and she may have to work until mealtime, so she plans to bring her lunch with her today. If she can leave work early later, she will come back and eat the lunch in the field. This is how she plans to eat today, and get breakfast at the same time.
She made a lot of steamed buns and planned to send some more to the cowshed when she came back in the evening. It was spring planting time now, and the elders and children in the cowshed needed good nourishment, otherwise the bodies they had worked so hard to build up would collapse again.
Han Wanying took out her lunch box, packed her things, and went to work. When she walked to the road ahead, she found He Zhen and Yan Shuojing waiting for her.
Although the two men were wearing simple clothes, the appearance of the young men still attracted the attention.
Yan Shuojing saw her and hurried over, greeting her and saying, "Comrade Han, good morning!"
He Zhen also looked at Han Wanying and said, "Hello, Comrade Han."
Han Wanying looked at them and replied, "Good morning." After that, she took out their lunch boxes from the basket on her arm and handed them to them.
He said, "This is today's lunch."
He Zhen took the lunch box and said, "Sorry to bother you, Comrade Han."
Han Wanying waved her hand and said, "It's okay."
Then Han Wanying left. Although the three of them had similar destinations, they arrived at the ground at a distance that was not too far from each other.
Han Wanying put her things down and went to work. He Zhen arrived later and saw that Han Wanying had already started, so he rolled up his sleeves and started working.
Not long after, Li Zhaodi also came with a basin covered with a cloth. Li Zhaodi put down the things and started working.
At noon, everyone started to eat. Most of the people in the village asked their family members to go back early to cook and then bring the food over. Of course, this is only true for families with many people. If there are only a few people in the family, they will choose to bring the food over in the morning. Because there are few people in the family and there is little labor, no one is willing to give up even a little bit of work points. After all, that is what everyone eats.
Han Wanying and He Zhen also went to eat. There happened to be a tree next to them, so everyone basically chose to eat under the tree. Han Wanying did the same. She picked up her lunch box and sat under the tree to start eating.
Han Wanying took out a white steamed bun from the lunch box. The people around her swallowed their saliva and looked at Han Wanying enviously.
Although everyone would choose to eat better food at this time due to spring planting, at most they would just add a little more oil and water, or a little more white rice to the rice. It was impossible to eat big white steamed buns. Most of the wealthier families in the village only ate steamed buns during the New Year and other festivals.
Han Wanying ignored their looks and ate her steamed buns.
At this time, a shrill voice came: "Han girl, give me a steamed bun."
Han Wanying looked up, wanting to see who had said that shamelessly. Seeing it was Wang Cuihua, she sneered and said, "Why should I give it to you?"
Wang Cuihua said almsgivingly: "You are a money-loser, why would you eat steamed buns? Give them to me and I will give them to my son. Then maybe I will consider letting my son marry you. However, I am just considering it. If you want to marry me, you have to work hard."
Han Wanying's eyes darkened, and she asked with a sneer on her face, "Oh? Tell me more."
Wang Cuihua didn't see Han Wanying's look and continued to talk to herself: "You can help me with the work in the future. You are strong anyway. Then I will ask the man in your city to help my son find another job. You don't look like a good fertile woman. We will definitely not give a betrothal gift. You can just bring 200 yuan as a dowry."
Yan Shuojing and the others were eating nearby, and when they heard these words, they almost choked on their steamed buns.
The villagers who were eating nearby looked at Wang Cuihua as if she were a fool.
