Chapter 206 Yam (Part 9)
"Xiao girl, you have tidied up this yard very well. If it weren't for your embarrassing status as the second master, I would have wanted to live with you in my old age." Foreman Xie said as he looked around the yard.
"Second Master, I will definitely let you live in a better house than this one in the future, so you don't have to envy the yard I live in now."
"Xiao girl, you are too partial. Why do you only give your second master a good house to live in and retire, but not give our other three masters a good house to live in and retire? It seems that I have loved you in vain." Professor Wang said, pretending to be heartbroken.
"Haha... Master Four, how could I possibly do that? I'm just afraid that there will be too many people who will take care of you in your old age, and I'm too small to compete with them."
"Smooth talk." Professor Wang said with a smile.
"Master Four, I'm not being glib. I really think this. If you all want me to take care of you in your old age, I'll buy you a big yard and then we can all live together. That way, not only can I accompany you and take care of you, but it will also be lively. Isn't that great?"
"That sounds great. If there's no one to take care of me in my old age, I'll ask you, Xiao girl, to do it for me. But Xiao girl, by the time you've found a partner and are married, you probably won't be bothered to accompany us old guys..." Old Man Fan said.
After hearing what Mr. Fan said, Lu Xiaoxiao knew that he was teasing her, but she was still a little embarrassed to talk about this topic in front of four elders, so she stomped her feet in shame and said, "I'm still young. The porridge in the pot is ready. I'll go and serve it." After saying this, she ran to the kitchen.
The four people in the main room burst into laughter after seeing this scene. They felt that such a little girl was much more fun than the usual mature-looking little girl. It seemed that they could tease her more in the future.
If Lu Xiaoxiao knew what her masters were thinking at this moment, I wonder if she would still serve the yam porridge to them?
"Masters, please come and sit at this table. I cooked some yam porridge for you. Here are some pickled cucumbers and meat buns I made. You can eat them with the porridge."
"Xiao girl, stop busying yourself and come over to eat with us." Old Master Fan said.
"Master chef, I'll go to the kitchen and get a spoon and come right back. You guys eat first."
After taking a bite of the yam porridge, General Xie said, "Xiao girl, your yam porridge is so sweet and delicious."
"Second Master, if you like it, I'll make more for you in the future. Anyway, there are so many yams, you can eat as much as you want."
"That won't do. There's nothing wrong with adding yam, but making porridge requires not only yam but also rice. So, Xiao girl, if you want to make it, make it for yourself and don't make it for us." Foreman Xie said a little anxiously.
"Got it, Second Master. I only have a little rice. Today everyone was too tired from digging yam so I cooked it. You can use the dregs to cook yam porridge in the future, and the taste won't be bad."
"That's better." General Xie breathed a sigh of relief.
After dinner, Lu Xiaoxiao saw Mr. Fan and the others off. She cleaned up the dishes and went into the space to take a shower. This afternoon, she had been digging yam, bending over and lying on the ground, and she felt like she was about to fall apart. Now she just wanted to take a shower quickly and lie down on the bed to rest.
For the next half month, except for picking chestnuts with her second sister on weekends, Lu Xiaoxiao went up the mountain with the masters to dig yam at other times.
Hard work pays off. In half a month, Lu Xiaoxiao and her four masters dug all the yams. She felt a special sense of accomplishment when looking at the dozens of bags of yams piled up at home.
After feeling a sense of accomplishment, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the yams in front of her. She thought that it would be bad if someone came to her house and saw the yams, so she put all the yams into the space. Anyway, no one except the master knew about the yams, and the masters would definitely not come to her house, so she could safely put the yams into the space.
