"Yes, that's as it should be." Qiu Yinong nodded and asked everyone to start eating.
They are the hosts. Should they not eat just because others are hungry?
"Grandpa, the food smells so good..." One of the boys couldn't help it any longer. He was usually spoiled at home and when he saw the Qiu family members eating, he couldn't stop swallowing his saliva.
Cheng Dazhu was in the middle of his welding smoke, and when he heard this, he scolded him in a low voice: "Wait a little longer, even if you live in a dilapidated temple in the wild, you can still withstand it."
"There's an inn for you to stay in today, can't you bear it?"
When the Cheng family boy heard this, he dared not say a word.
Fortunately, Niu Shanda was quick and soon served six dishes and a soup to the Cheng family.
The soup was the pork ribs and winter melon soup that the Qiu family drank, and the staple food was big steamed buns, which were also steamed after they arrived at the inn.
"My dear sister-in-law, this is your soup. This bowl of soup should have less salt." Niu Shanda put another bowl of soup in front of the pregnant woman.
The pregnant woman was very puzzled and asked, "Why did you give me a bowl of soup with so little salt? It's so hot today. If I don't eat salt, won't I feel even weaker?"
Seeing her looking at the soup on the table with disgust, Niu Shanda's smile disappeared.
"This is something my master specifically told you to drink. It's up to you whether you drink it or not." After saying that, Niu Shanda turned around and left, going to sit down with Baoshun and the others to eat.
Cheng Dazhu looked at his daughter and said, "Since it's arranged by the host, you can drink this bowl of soup!"
"But, Daddy, you also said that if you don't eat salt when it's hot, your legs will lose strength."
"I've been having trouble walking these past few days. If I don't eat some salt, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on."
Cheng Danniu pouted in grievance and said dissatisfiedly.
The short and fat woman sighed and said, "Since it's the host's kindness, if my daughter doesn't want to eat it, then don't eat it. I'll eat it."
When Cheng Danniu heard this, she immediately became happy.
But she didn't notice that Qiu Yinong put down the chopsticks in her hand and was looking at her.
The boy who had been secretly staring at Qiu Yinong suddenly pulled Cheng Danniu's sleeve and said, "Auntie, that girl is looking at you."
Cheng Danniu and her family looked at Qiu Yinong at the same time. Cheng Dazhu looked embarrassed, and the short and fat woman didn't know what to say.
Qiu Yinong said calmly: "Do you think I'm meddling?"
"No, no, the girl arranged for someone to cook for us and even let us stay. That's very kind of her. We can't thank her enough."
Cheng Song hurriedly expressed her gratitude. She was embarrassed that her daughter did not accept the other person's good intentions and instead complained about him.
"We didn't allow her to eat more salt because her legs and feet were severely swollen. Her weakness wasn't caused by a lack of salt intake."
"If she continues to eat too much salt, it will not be good for her kidneys."
Cheng Dazhu was stunned, but he didn't expect it was because of this reason. Cheng Danv was also dumbfounded. It turned out that they were doing it for her own good.
"Miss, do you know medicine?" Cheng Dazhu asked.
Qiu Yinong nodded, then stopped talking and continued eating her meal.
Cheng Song also quickly put the soup back in front of her daughter and coaxed her softly, "My daughter, the young lady from the host family is also kind-hearted. Please eat this soup quickly."
"No wonder this dish isn't too salty, it's just the right amount. It turns out it's because the hostess noticed that I can't take in too much salt."
The eldest brother of the Cheng family also hurriedly spoke.
Cheng Dazhu said in a deep voice: "The master is thoughtful, big girl, you must not let others down."
"Dad, I understand." Cheng Da Nv nodded quickly. Her legs and feet had indeed been swollen and uncomfortable recently, with a dent left when she pressed them.
Next, there were the sounds of eating, and from time to time there were the sounds of bowls, chopsticks and spoons colliding from the Cheng family.
There was almost no sound from Qiu Yinong and the others, which made Cheng Dazhu feel even more embarrassed.
"Keep your voice down."
When the Cheng family listened carefully, they found that there was indeed no sound from the other side. They felt embarrassed and restrained themselves.
After dinner, Cheng Song rushed to clean up the dishes, and Qiu Yinong asked Jiang Cuiping to help clean up.
Cheng Songshi said no, but Jiang Cuiping smiled and said, "You are also paying guests, how can we let you come all the time?"
"The hot water is ready. Master, would you like to take a bath first?" Niu Shanda walked up to Qiu Yinong and asked.
Qiu Yinong said, "Let the grandparents, parents and others take a bath first."
"Okay." Niu Shanda nodded, and together with Baoshun, Ji'an and Shouquan, he brought the water to the room on the third floor.
The Qiu family lived on the third floor, and four rooms on the second floor were allocated to the Cheng family.
Cheng Song washed the dishes and used the kitchen to boil water.
Then he went to get some cold water, but was stopped by Jiang Cuiping. Cheng Songshi was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?"
"You don't need to prepare cold water. You only need to prepare hot water. Remove the cork in the room and cold water will flow."
After hearing this, Cheng Song opened her eyes wide and got some hot water to bring upstairs.
Niu Shanda and others saw him and helped carry him into the room.
Cheng Song followed them to the bathing room and saw them pour hot water into a wooden barrel and then remove the wooden stopper from a bamboo tube on the wall.
Following the spring water, Cheng Song was amazed. She had never seen such a convenient thing.
"Sir, just keep an eye on the water temperature. There's mint soap in the bamboo box over there. It's for bathing and can remove dirt."
"This bottle contains shampoo." Niu Shanda said, turned and left.
The Cheng family took a comfortable hot bath. They had been outside for a while and their bodies smelled.
The shampoo has the effect of removing head lice, and some spiritual spring water has been added to it. Qiu Yinong is also afraid that insect eggs will be left behind, which would be troublesome.
