Li Xu sighed again, "You are really amazing. You can think of so many things based on just one thing."
As long as Captain Sun can handle these matters, we can rest assured.
"If we want to investigate the countryside, we can only start from these places. That's not hard to imagine." Captain Sun smiled and continued, "It seems that inviting you to dinner today was a good idea. Otherwise, it would be too late if we waited until disaster struck."
"It won't be too late. Since I know about this, I will definitely inform you to prepare early. After all, I am half a member of the Sun family."
Captain Sun burst into laughter. "Yes, yes, we are all one family, one family."
After he finished laughing, Li Xu asked, "Uncle, is this news considered a favor to them?"
"Of course I count. As long as I can help them escape this disaster, anyone who dares to disobey me in the future will be an ungrateful person. If this gets out, I'll see how he behaves."
These days, violating the rules will result in severe penalties. If it is done by a family, then the members of that family will have to do the dirtiest and most tiring work in the future, and they may even be pulled out for criticism from time to time.
If the brigade is used as the unit, then the agricultural tax paid by this brigade in the next few years may be higher than that of other regions.
If this were true, even in normal years, after paying the grain tax, there might not be enough food for families to eat, and people might even starve to death.
Who can stand this?
That is why Captain Sun said this.
His answer made Li Xu very happy.
If he could really take complete control of Sunjiatan, he would have a lot of room to maneuver in the future.
Captain Sun was also very happy because of this favor. No matter who took over the position of captain in the future, they would have to be polite to the Sun family.
The two of them then happily chatted about other topics until Captain Sun's wife came in with the dishes.
After putting the dishes on the table and arranging the bowls and chopsticks, Sun quickly invited the two of them to sit at the table.
After Li Xu and the other man sat down, Sun smiled and said, "You two eat first. I have things to do. Xiao Xu, this is your first time eating here, so please don't be polite. Just treat this place as your own home."
Li Xu was stunned. "Aunt, won't you sit down and eat something?"
"No, I really have something to do. If you don't believe me, ask your uncle. He knows."
Captain Sun nodded in agreement, "Yes, she needs to go out."
Hearing this, Li Xu said no more, and Sun walked out quickly.
After she disappeared from view, Li Xu asked quietly, "Granduncle, you don't plan to let anyone else eat this meal today, do you?"
When he first arrived, he was puzzled because he remembered that Captain Sun had children at home, but why didn't he see any today?
Now I understand. I guess those people were driven away by Captain Sun.
When asked, Captain Sun replied confidently, "Of course, I invited you today. If they were home, how could we eat this dish?"
Li Xu looked at the overflowing pot of food, feeling a bit amused and helpless. "This is all meat. Even if two more people come, there's enough to eat. Besides, you said before that you'd treat me to turtle, so why did you kill a chicken?"
"You don't understand. Turtle must be fried with chicken to taste better. This dish only looks rich, but it doesn't taste that much."
Then Captain Sun took the lead and picked up a piece of turtle meat with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth. While chewing, he said incoherently, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and eat. I have to go out and work after you finish eating."
At this point, Li Xu sighed secretly, picked up a piece of turtle shell with a "skirt" and started eating.
This "skirt" is the soft meat around the edge of the turtle shell, which tastes quite good.
Then he picked up a piece of turtle leg and started eating. His eyes lit up at the first bite. "Auntie, your cooking skills are really good. There is no fishy smell of turtle at all."
Captain Sun looked at him cheerfully, "I told you, I'm sure you'll want to swallow your tongue after eating it. So, did your uncle lie to you?"
"No, no, it's really delicious."
In this way, the two of them chatted while eating.
When he was halfway through the meal, he suddenly heard two shouts coming from the yard. Li Xu knew it was Uncle Sun's voice as soon as he heard it, "Grandpa, my uncles are here to see me. I'm going to talk to them first."
Captain Sun looked at him suspiciously, "Are you trying to take this opportunity to escape?"
"I really have something to tell them. I'll come in as soon as I'm done."
Even though he repeatedly assured him, Captain Sun still didn't believe him. He stood up and walked out. "I'll go out with you. Don't worry, I won't eavesdrop on your conversation."
Li Xu: ...
Now that you've said that, what else can I say?
Besides, are you so worried about me?
After a moment's silence, he followed her out.
When the two of them arrived at the door, Uncle Sun and Uncle Sun greeted Captain Sun first, and then asked Li Xu, "Xiao Xu, your grandma said you have something to ask us?"
Hearing this, Captain Sun quickly walked aside to show that he would not eavesdrop.
Seeing him like this, Li Xu was still a little worried, so he told him the purpose of his visit and the matter of his cousin in a very low voice.
After hearing this, Uncle Sun and the other man were so furious that they wanted to go back and settle the score with them. Seeing this, Li Xu quickly stopped them and tried to persuade them again.
Finally, the two said that they would strictly supervise the old lady's drinking of milk powder and resolutely prevent such incidents from happening again. They would only hold the children accountable for lying.
