Chapter 80 This kind of roujiamo is still delicious!
"Everyone, please don't be polite. Come and work for our Zhou family. We will remember this favor and will not neglect it. Come and eat! There will be more in the evening!"
Mrs. Zhou was also nearby. She puffed out her chest and said, "These dishes are not expensive. Now our family is doing tofu business and has made a little money. There is no need to save a bite for our Zhou family. Eat them all. Eat as much as you can. Only when you are full will you have the strength to help with the work!"
After hearing what the host said, everyone stopped being so pretentious.
It has been a long time since I last smelled the smell of meat and had a taste of it.
"Then we will obey your orders. The Zhou family is kind. If we have enough food, we will help with the work and make sure the house is built beautifully."
"good!"
Let’s pick up our chopsticks together.
They are all big chunks of meat. Pick up a piece and put it in your mouth, and you will feel satisfied and happy all over.
“Too much to eat!”
“It smells so good!”
They were all grown men who had not eaten meat for a long time, and they all ate with their mouths full of oil and were in great spirits.
Old man Zhou also said, "Let's have this lunch in the morning, and then we can have the next lunch later. Then, we can prepare some wine and snacks to make everyone enjoy themselves more."
"good!"
"The master is so generous!"
"Well, we came here to help, but with this kind of treatment, it seems like we're just here to get a free meal, hahahaha..."
"For the new house of the Zhou family, I, Zhao Laoer, told them how much wood they would need. I will cut down as many trees as they need. I will build the upper, middle and lower beams of the roof. I will also be responsible for the doors and windows. I will also carve big peonies on the doors and windows..."
"You're just bragging. You've never seen a peony before? You don't even know what it looks like. I believe in dog-eat-dog flowers..."
Everyone burst into laughter.
…
There was a lot of fun eating and drinking outside.
In the kitchen, Lin Shiqi and her friends, along with a few other children, were eating around the stove.
She went to deliver goods to the county town before dawn and came back early so that she could have lunch.
There are still a lot of dishes left in the kitchen from outside.
The men ate at the table outside, leaving the women and children behind. In the countryside, they always eat the leftovers.
Lin Shiqi didn't like to eat leftovers, so she suggested that Mrs. Zhou leave some food for the women and children to eat separately.
She could accept not sitting at the main table and eating with men.
No leftover seats will be accepted.
She has modern thinking, but she doesn't have the idea of favoring boys over girls. Women are not inferior to men, and women should have the same things that men can eat.
Mrs. Zhou agreed to everything she asked for because she could make money.
In addition, Mrs. Zhou herself is a daughter-loving madman. Aunt Zhou is unique in the Zhou family. She eats the best and wears the best clothes. Therefore, Mrs. Zhou herself is not particularly biased towards boys.
There is no table in the kitchen, but the stove is big enough.
Everyone stood by the stove and ate together.
Lin Shiqi called the little mute girl out to eat together.
Ever since Mrs. Zhou admitted in public yesterday that Xiao Yaniang was the adopted daughter of the fourth room and the granddaughter of the old Zhou family, and even arranged for her to get some fine cloth material, Xiao Yaniang was not so hostile to the people of the old Zhou family anymore. She started to come out and help with the chores and no longer avoided people.
I asked her to come out for dinner and she came out.
The children in the family stared at her curiously, but she was not afraid. She just kept a straight face.
Lin Shiqi broke the steamed bread, put a piece of steamed pork in it, and closed it.
I took a bite and said, "It's delicious! This kind of roujiamo is still the best!"
Extremely intoxicated.
Seeing this, the younger ones began to follow suit.
Meat sandwich.
After taking a bite, everyone exclaimed that it was delicious.
Lin Shiqi stuffed bean sprouts, green vegetables, fried bacon and mushrooms into the steamed bun, making it full. He put it in his mouth and took a big bite, feeling very happy.
"You know what? You can put anything in a steamed bun and it's delicious."
A few younger ones started to learn again.
When Liu and the others saw this, they couldn't help but laugh.
Steamed bread tastes good even without vegetables! It was not easy to eat enough steamed bread in the past.
But that didn’t stop them from learning how to pick up food and eating it, and after they finished eating, they were full of praise.
"Fourth brother and sister-in-law really know how to eat. Where did they learn this way of eating?"
Lin Shiqi thought for a moment and said, "Of course my husband saw it in a book and taught me."
Zhou Lang, who was trying hard to eat at the table outside, sneezed for no apparent reason.
He is the all-around scapegoat.
At the main table outside, there were two seats next to Old Man Zhou, one for Zhou Lang and the other for Zhou Dalang.
The two scholars ate their meals very politely. The others wolfed down the food, but they were the only ones who stood out and ate slowly.
From time to time, they would respond to the compliments from their fellow villagers.
Old man Zhou had two things to be proud of today. One was the table full of delicious food, and the other was that there were two scholars in Old Zhou's family.
…
Wang told the truth, looking confused.
I only found out when I woke up in the morning that Lao Zhou's family was building a new house.
She hurriedly asked Boss Zhou to find out what was going on.
Is it a new house built for them?
As a result, Boss Zhou went out to ask around and came back to tell her that it was because they were going to build a tofu shop. Then, the fourth room paid twenty taels of silver, and it was estimated that after the shop was completed, the fourth room would move in.
Wang was unhappy.
"What? Shouldn't it be for our eldest wife to live in? We have three sons. In the future, when the sons grow up, they will all marry and have children, and expand the Zhou family. There will definitely not be enough rooms. It's just right for our eldest wife to move in and marry daughters-in-law!"
Zhou Lao Da obviously didn't think that far ahead. "My sons are still young. Dalang is only eleven or twelve years old. It's too early for him to get married. Besides, the fourth family paid twenty taels of silver... We don't contribute a penny. How can we have the nerve to rob someone's new house to live in!"
Wang said, "She is still young now, but in a few years she will be grown up. In two years she can go to the village to discuss marriage. When the matchmaker sees that our sons all live in big mud brick houses, it will be easier for her to find a partner in the future. The girls with better conditions will be chosen by our Erlang and Sanlang!"
"As for the claim that the fourth house contributed 20 taels of silver, that is even more nonsense. They haven't divided the family yet, so the silver they earned should belong to the public. If it is public, then our eldest house should have a share. Don't you think this makes sense?"
Boss Zhou cowered, "If you think this makes sense, then go and argue with our parents. I won't go anyway. I don't have the nerve to do that!"
Wang could only dare to murmur behind her back.
She knew her own limitations, and if she dared to go and tell Mrs. Zhou about it, Mrs. Zhou would scold her severely.
There is also the possibility of losing the job that you have been assigned with great difficulty.
She won't go.
I can only encourage Boss Zhou to go.
And Boss Zhou is even more cowardly than her.
"You are the head of the family, but you don't know how to fight for good things for us. How could I be so blind to marry a man like you? It's useless."
