Everything went smoothly. With the help of Gouwaer, a plate of fried shrimp and green vegetables was ready.
In order to prevent herself from making the food too salty, Su Tangxue always asked Gouwaer to help her measure the salt and soy sauce before adding them. After the food was out of the pot, she took a quick taste and found it was neither too salty nor too bland, and the taste was quite good.
Gouwaer gave her a lot of shrimps, filling up a plate. She took a bigger bowl and divided some of them out for Gouwaer to take back.
There was a bowl full of shrimps in front of him, as big as a small mountain. Gouwaer didn't dare to take it for a moment.
"Sister, you just gave me egg cake and malted milk, so I don't want these shrimps."
He really felt it was a bit embarrassing to eat so much of his sister's food and still take it home.
"No, take it back! You gave me this shrimp, take it back and let your mother try it too."
Knowing that Gouwaer refused to take it, she specifically mentioned Wu Laidie. Sure enough, Gouwaer was shaken. After hesitating for a long time, he decided to take the bowl of shrimp.
"Thank you, sister."
Su Tangxue smiled slightly. How could a little boy who couldn't even finish his egg cake not feel sorry for his mother at home?
She made some rice and called her grandmother to come and eat quickly. They ate early today, as they usually waited until dark before eating. Yun Xiangrui asked Lu Qinglin.
She told her grandmother about Lu Qinglin being invited by the team leader to open the pond.
"Gou Wa, eat more. There's not much to eat at my place, so please don't be disgusted!" Worried that Gou Wa wouldn't dare to eat anything, Su Tangxue picked up a few river shrimps for him.
"Thank you, sister. I can do it myself."
The meal in front of him was already a rich feast for him. After his father passed away, there was never any meat on the table during the Chinese New Year.
After eating, Su Tangxue found a clean iron box to wash the food, filled some for Lu Qinglin, then took out a cup to make a bowl of malted milk, let it cool, and poured it into the kettle before leaving.
"Grandma, I'm tired."
Su Tangxue shouted towards the yard, then rushed to the pond with her lunch box.
The closer we got to the pond, the more people we saw on the road, but most of them were walking back with fish in their hands and happy smiles on their faces.
Along the way, many people greeted her, and even if Su Tangxue didn't know her name, she would still say a word or two in reply.
Soon, she returned to the pond.
The water in the pond has not been drained yet, but no one is fishing in the canal anymore.
Under the tree by the roadside, only the team leader and a few men were left fishing, and Lu Qinglin was among them.
Judging from the fact that there weren't many people queuing up, Su Tangxue walked towards the man with her lunch box.
The captain understood immediately when he saw it, and asked the man next to him to go up and replace Lu Qinglin.
"No problems on the way?"
Lu Qinglin had just washed his hands and sat down when he said that to her.
Su Tangxue was a little confused, "What?"
"Did the journey back go smoothly?"
Lu Qinglin was worried that Su Tangxue would be in danger on the way back carrying such a heavy bucket.
"No, it went well. I also fried some shrimps. Come and try them." Su Tangxue opened the lunch box, revealing the rosy and fragrant prawns inside.
Lu Qinglin took a bite and handed it to her mouth.
"You eat! I came here only after I was full."
Hearing that she didn't want to eat, Lu Qinglin immediately started eating. He held the chopsticks in his hand and shoveled the rice into his mouth in big mouthfuls. It was obvious that he was really hungry.
