Next up was the roasted chicken. He Ming scurried into the kitchen, pulling out a matchbox. Hongmei went to the haystack and pulled out a pile of straw. They found a spot, started a fire, and each of them held the chicken head and feet, rotating it 360 degrees to roast it. This was to roast off the tiny hairs and any lymph nodes.
After all the hard work, both kids were sweating profusely. There was nothing they could do. After all, it was summer and there was a fire burning. It would be too hot for anyone.
After finishing this step, the two were confused about what to do next. "How about we wait for grandma and the others to come back?" Even if He Ming was a young man with high spirits, he could not stand such a toss, let alone Hongmei, a girl.
"Okay." They reached a common goal and smiled knowingly.
Time passed quickly, and it was already six o'clock in the afternoon. In summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and it only gets dark around seven or eight o'clock, so it's not far from time to go to farm work.

"Old woman, cook first. You've been tired all day." Soon, they finally had the delicious stewed chicken with potatoes and chicken soup. He Luyi was held by her mother and could only watch with envy and drink some soup to satisfy her desire.
Seeing everyone eating voraciously, He Luyi was so greedy that she almost cried.
"You are still young, you can't eat too much. Just taste it." Donghua saw that his daughter was really greedy, so he gave her a small piece of chicken and told her to eat it slowly!
After a dinner, everyone was still unsatisfied and sighed, "It would be great if we could eat like this every day."
