In fact, Zhang Qingdong wanted to accompany Jiang Wan, but he really couldn't leave.
I have to trouble my wife.
After they finished eating, they waited for Tian Mujun and his family to come upstairs, and Jiang Wan also brought a large plate of cold noodles to Tian Mujun.
The next morning, Jiang Wan went to the provincial capital.

Chenjia Village.
Chen Xiaohong's two children are both over seven months old.
The two little guys don’t look very similar. They are just copy and paste, exactly the same.
Zhang Qiang hasn't had much rest this year.
In recent days, the wheat was harvested at home, and the old couple Liu Xiu, the old couple Chen Kaifang, and the old couple Tian Yuhu all helped each other.
These past two days, Zhang Qiang has either been attending meetings in the county town or in the village.
Now many brick and tile factories and breeding farms in the villages are idle. The county held a meeting and decided to put these idle factories into use and put them into operation to boost the community economy.
It was decided at the meeting that anyone capable in the village could contract the brick and tile factory and the breeding farm.
It was almost dark when Zhang Qiang returned from the county.
When he entered, there was a large round bamboo basket under the eaves.
Usually this is used to store food.
Chen Xiaohong put a small thin quilt inside and let the two children lie down inside while she cooked in the kitchen.
When she heard the sound of a tractor at the door, Chen Xiaohong knew that Zhang Qiang had returned.
Zhang Qiang strode into the yard, and the two children were holding their little feet and chewing them.
As soon as Zhang Qiang squatted down, the two children babbled and waved their hands, asking for a hug.
Zhang Qiang smiled and said, "Dad will go see Mom first. You guys lie down first."
Chen Xiaohong heard the sound in the kitchen and came out to see Zhang Qiang walking towards her with a smile.
Chen Xiaohong smiled: "Are you back? Go wash your face and cool it down. We'll eat when mom and dad come back."
Zhang Qiang leaned over and gave Chen Xiaohong a kiss on the face.
"Thank you for your hard work, my wife. I'll wash my face and help you."
Chen Xiaohong pushed Zhang Qiang shyly.
"Don't make trouble, be careful that our parents come back and see us."
"I saw it, and I saw it."
Chen Xiaohong smiled and glared at Zhang Qiang. Zhang Qiang simply took off his shirt, which had already been soaked on the back, and hung it on the wire in the yard. He then washed his hair and back with his bare chest under the eaves.
He has been wearing a vest since he started harvesting rapeseed. The sun is scorching and the marks from the vest are like stickers on his back.
Zhang Qiang felt much better after taking a few showers.
After washing, he asked Chen Xiaohong to wipe his back, then he put on a clean vest and went to the kitchen to help.
Chen Xiaohong made cold noodles, but the kitchen was so hot that she was sweating profusely.
Zhang Qiang: "The county held a meeting today, and the contracting out of the village's brick and tile factory and breeding farm has finally been implemented.
The contract must be signed before the end of the month.”
Chen Xiaohong got a little excited when she heard this.
"If it is outsourced, how much is the contract price?"
"A farm costs 100 yuan, a brick and tile factory costs 1,000 yuan"
One hundred and one thousand yuan may sound high, but you have to know that it is difficult for people from ordinary families to come up with that amount.
It has been more than a year since the production responsibility system was assigned to households, but in many places it has not yet been assigned to households.
Most people have just managed to get enough food and clothing, so it is not realistic to come up with so much money.
Chen Xiaohong knew that Zhang Qiang's job in the village was not easy either.
However, she really wants to contract this farm.
Zhang Qiang saw Chen Xiaohong was thinking about something, so he slapped her on the butt and said with a smile: "What are you thinking about?"
Chen Xiaohong came back to her senses and replied: "Nothing."
"It's strange that you didn't think of anything. You must be thinking about contracting a breeding farm.
I don't know you yet.
Tell me the truth, what are you thinking?
Your husband is now the village party secretary. As long as you want something or want to do something, I will help you find a way."
Chen Xiaohong knew that he doted on her, and he would support her unconditionally whatever she wanted.
At this critical juncture, she couldn't hold him back.
We can’t let him get embarrassed in front of the villagers.
Chen Xiaohong said: “I was thinking about the situation at the breeding farm.
After you inform everyone, if no one contracts the farm, can you let me take over the contract?"
Zhang Qiang knew that his daughter-in-law had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.
She is a hard-working woman.
These days, hard work can make you rich.
"Okay, that's easy, I'll leave it to you.
But to be honest, I think the possibility of the farm being contracted out is not very high.
I will notify this matter early tomorrow morning. After the notification, more people will definitely pay attention to it, the brick and tile factory.
Chen Xiaohong asked in confusion: "Why?"
“Because people think brick and tile factories can make more money than farms.”
“That’s right, the purpose of everyone taking on the contract is definitely to make money.
I am the same, but I don’t have much talent. I think with my ability, I can only contract a farm.”
She didn't say anything unpleasant, just paid the money for contracting the breeding farm, which was also the money that Yang Wei had compensated before.
"Let me know tomorrow."
"Okay."
The two chatted for a while, and then Liu Xiu and his wife came back.
Liu Xiu invited Chen Kaifang and his wife to come for dinner, but there was no one at home. Chen Xiaolan had called and said she would not be back during the summer vacation. She said she found a part-time job in a clothing store during the day and tutored other people's children at night.
Chen Kaifang and his wife didn't come, so Liu Xiu served two bowls of cold noodles and wanted to take them over, but Chen Xiaohong said she would go by herself.
As soon as Chen Xiaohong left, Zhang Qiang said, "Mom and Dad, you guys eat first. I'll go see my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
Liu Xiu and his wife sat at the dinner table. Liu Xiu said, "Our son's life is doomed to fail because of this little girl Xiao Hong."
Zhang Defu smiled and said, "Just be content. She gave you two big fat grandchildren and your family is doing well. That's good enough."
If your son likes to cling, then let him cling."
Liu Xiu glanced at Zhang Defu and complained: "Why didn't you stick to me when you were young?"
"Come on, forget it. When I was young, I couldn't even fill my stomach. I worked in the fields like animals all day long. All I thought about was not letting you go hungry. How could I have the time to stick with you?
Now you should be content.”
"Okay, okay, okay. I know what I am satisfied with. Anyway, I can't argue with you."
Zhang Defu smiled and said, "Let's eat."
When Chen Xiaohong came, the couple had no intention of cooking dinner.
After a tiring day, just eat a piece of bread with some rice soup.
As soon as Chen Xiaohong entered the door, she said, "Mom and Dad, my grandmother asked me to bring you some food."
Zhang Cuihua didn't want to cause trouble for her daughter.
Although they were married in the same village, their daughter also had her own home, so they tried not to disturb her life if possible.
Zhang Cuihua: "You guys can eat it yourself, but you have to bring us a portion."
"Who said you don't come to eat.
Mom, when I’m busy next time, I’ll call you to come over for dinner. Just come over, otherwise I’ll be worried.
The eldest brother and the second brother are not here, and Liye and Xiaolan have not come back either.
It's so hot, and I feel bad that you two old people have to cook after coming back from the fields."
Her daughter is living a good life now, and she is already very content.
"Now that you're married, don't think about me and your father anymore.
You have your own home.”
"Mom, now that I'm married, does that mean I'm no longer your daughter?"
