Jiang Lin parked the car and took Su Zeming into the main room.
Shi Kangyuan and the others had already gotten up and were warming themselves by the fire in the main room.
"Brother Lin is back?" Ye Yunshu looked towards the door.
Shi Kangyuan: "There are steamed buns and porridge in the pot."
Shi Kangyuan knew a little about Jiang Lin's business trip, so he would usually take the initiative to cook breakfast so that Jiang Lin could eat it when he came back.
Jiang Lin nodded and moved aside to let Su Zeming in: "Uncle, come in and warm yourself by the fire. I'll bring breakfast over."
"Oh, no thanks," Su Zeming quickly refused. How could he take the people's things for free?
Jiang Lin: "It's okay. You've been on the bus for so long and it's so early, you must be hungry. Eat something."
Jiang Lin pulled a stool for Su Zeming to sit down and warm himself by the fire. He introduced Shi Kangyuan and the others: "This is the comrade who came to visit relatives in the village. This is my mother. This is the relative we call Grandpa Shi. Uncle, please sit down. Mother, here is Grandpa Shi, you two can chat."
Su Zeming: "Thank you so much for troubling you."
He sighed again in his heart, the masses are really too simple!
When he came in, Su Zeming carefully observed the house. The walls were very high, the yard was very large, and the main room was also clean and spacious. This kind of house was more spacious than any Su Zeming had seen before.
He always felt that something was wrong, but he had no doubts.
If all the villagers in Dajiang Village live in houses like this, then the conditions are considered good.
Jiang Lin went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Although Shi Kangyuan cooked porridge, it only contained pickles. Jiang Lin lit the fire without saying a word and quickly fried three eggs.
After greeting Su Zeming, Shi Kangyuan found an excuse to go out and walked to the kitchen. He saw Jiang Lin frying eggs. The whole house was filled with fragrance. He felt strange at Jiang Lin's attitude as soon as he saw her.
Isn't it strange that such a bad-tempered kid nods and scrapes to people he hasn't met and calls them uncle all the time, compared to calling him Old Man Shi?
No, in front of that person, Jiang Lin just called him Grandpa Shi in a very nice manner.
I didn't know that I thought he was such a good person.
I'm still frying eggs. From the aroma, you can tell that a lot of oil was used.
Shi Kangyuan snorted, "Jiang boy, did the sun rise from the west today?"
Jiang Lin was silent for a moment: "That's Yuhe's father!"
"No wonder... you're such a good pretender." Shi Kangyuan snorted again, "He looks like a big shot, but he knows you're dating Su girl?"
It shouldn’t be like this. If I had known, the other party’s attitude shouldn’t be like this.
Even peasant families would despise someone like Jiang Lin. It's impossible that Su Yatou's family has no temper at all, right?
"He doesn't know." Jiang Lin was a little worried. "I met him on the way back. He doesn't know who I am yet."
Jiang Lin briefly recounted what happened on the way.
Shi Kangyuan gloated: "Well done, you even took ten yuan. You're such a money-grubber! Now we're going to have a good show!"
Jiang Lin was even more worried: "They forced it on me."
"Even if they forced it on you, you would have accepted it. They paid you to do something because they thought you were a kind-hearted young comrade. But when they found out you were dating Su Yatou, they said you were just a money-grubbing country boy!"
Jiang Lin knew what he said, but the situation was like this now.
Jiang Lin could only do his best to save his image. He carried the porridge and vegetables and said, "Old Man Shi, I'm going to work later. You can talk to him more at home."
Ye Yunshu rarely met strangers, but she wasn't afraid. "You're from out of town, right? Your accent doesn't sound local."
"Yes, I'm here to visit my family. But we're all of the same generation, so there's no need to address me as a respectful comrade." Su Zeming noticed that Ye Yunshu was blind, so he didn't ask any more questions and changed the subject, "How many people in your family work?"
"My son, I'll bring you back that one."
If Ye Yunshu wasn't blind, she would be working at her age. The relative surnamed Shi didn't look like someone who could work, so Su Zeming was not surprised by her answer.
I just admire that young comrade in my heart. He is really a good person. He works alone to earn work points and support so many people.
A nice young comrade came in with food: "Uncle, come and have something to eat."
"That's so embarrassing."
"It's okay, just ordinary meals."
Su Zeming: "Do you want to eat some more?"
He was asking about Ye Yunshu and the others.
Shi Kangyuan waved his hand: "You guys eat, we just ate."
Jiang Lin had already served it: "Uncle, there are pickles and eggs, please don't be disgusted."
When Su Zeming led his troops into battle, he even gnawed on tree bark. "How could that be? Pickles are enough. Why did you even go so far as to scramble eggs?"
The eggs looked like they were freshly cooked.
When Su Zeming came here, he passed by many villages, but there were really not many families that could eat rice and eggs.
Many of them were specially taken out to entertain them, as we would not even eat eggs at home.
Thinking that the young comrade might have fried the eggs because of him, Su Zeming felt a little guilty, as he had made the people spend money again.
The pickles were also delicious. Su Zeming ate two bowls of porridge in a row, and his stomach, which had been hungry for more than ten hours, felt much better.
After finishing his meal, Jiang Lin was about to go to work. He said to Su Zeming, "Uncle, everyone is working in the fields now. There's no one at the educated youth camp. You can stay at my house and warm yourself by the fire. After work, you can go find your daughter."
Su Zeming hadn't thought of this before he came. After Jiang Lin's words, it was really inconvenient. Since he had already disturbed you, he didn't act pretentiously anymore and nodded: "Then I'll bother you for a while."
Jiang Lin went out to work, and not long after, Dandan got up.
Su Zeming was stunned for a moment: "Is this the daughter of that young comrade?"
But that young man looks to be in his early twenties, and this girl is probably seven or eight years old, right?
"No." Shi Kangyuan explained, "This is my granddaughter. Jiang kid isn't married yet."
Su Zeming had always called Jiang Lin "little comrade" and didn't know his full name. When he heard Shi Kangyuan calling him "Jiang kid", Su Zeming didn't think much about it.
"That young comrade is handsome, hardworking, and not married?"
"Not yet." Ye Yunshu smiled, "But I'm already dating."
"That's really great. Girls who can marry young comrades are really lucky." Su Zeming felt from the bottom of his heart that this house was really good, and there was rice and eggs for meals.
If she continued, Ye Yunshu would have mentioned Su Yuhe's name, but fortunately Su Zeming didn't ask any more questions.
Shi Kangyuan was worried. For Jiang Xiaozi's happiness, he quickly changed the subject.
Su Zeming felt that they were simple and honest, but they would not reveal their identities casually, and they only talked about irrelevant things.
Later, the old lady woke up and Shi Kangyuan gave her breakfast.
Only then did Su Zeming realize that there was an old lady.
There are four or five mouths to feed, but only one person works. The old, the young, and the disabled. How hard must a young man work to support such a large family? Su Zeming's favorability towards Jiang Lin increased by another two degrees.
