Mrs. Lan was very happy: "I'm not tired, I'm not tired at all!"
"Sister Lan, we're getting married tomorrow. Don't go back. Just stay in the guesthouse and live with me. We can be together tomorrow!" Zhang Xingrong said. She was worried that Sister Lan would have to get you up specially tomorrow and then come over. How tiring that would be!
It would be better to just stay here, so that we can get up early.
She was worried about how difficult it was for Mrs. Lan, so she added, "If there's anything we young people don't understand, you can help us!"
When Lan Sao heard about the offer of help, she nodded happily. But then she suddenly thought of something and said, "That won't work. I have frozen meat in the refrigerator. I have pork and lamb legs!"
That leg of lamb wasn't just a leg of lamb, there was a lot of lamb meat. It could be eaten by a lot of people! She had to go back and bring the meat back before dawn when it was almost done.
Zhang Xingrong was helpless for a moment and had to say, "You and Uncle Wen also need to eat, so you should keep it for yourself!"
"No!" Lan's wife refused. "There are only three of us, so we can't eat much. Besides, Xiaoze and Xiaochen don't come home often, so I can't eat much when I eat alone. I've been freezing this meat for a long time, and we only ate a little of the mutton when it was distributed. None of us like it, so we might as well bring it here."
"That's fine," Zhang Xingrong nodded. "Let's go get it now. It'll take a few hours to thaw it, and then we'll marinate it for a few hours. It'll be perfect for tomorrow morning!"
According to the custom of preparing a banquet, we have to get up before dawn to prepare, so the time is almost up.
Mrs. Lan thought for a moment and said, "Okay!"
The lamb leg is not small, so it takes a long time to thaw, which is just right.
Lan Sao put her things down, chatted with Su's mother for a while, and then went out to chat with the old man and the old woman. It was almost time. Zhang Xingrong asked the two brothers to go back while she and Lan Sao went to get the things. Zhang Hewu was reluctant because he was worried about the weight of the things. It was only when Zhang Xingrong asked him to help with the chores at Su's house that he stayed.
The two returned to the Wen family. Zhang Xingrong asked Sister Lan to pack a set of clothes while she took the bag to pack the meat.
The refrigerator was filled with nothing but meat and dumplings. She only packed lamb legs and used something to disguise the pork underneath. She couldn't bear to take all the meat, so she simply kept the pork.
After packing up her things, Mrs. Lan still hadn't come out, so she simply took a piece of paper and a pen to leave a message for Wen Shizhe.
Don't let him worry if no one comes back tonight.
Thinking about the issue of eating for two grown men, she wrote down the matter of dumplings.
When she was almost done writing, Sister Lan came out. When she heard Zhang Xingrong say that she had left a message for Wen Shizhe, she felt more relieved.
She also took a quick look, but due to Zhang Xingrong's cover-up, she didn't see it clearly. However, she nodded in relief, and then the two of them went to the Su family.
Zhang Xingrong took over all the work, and when the two returned to Su's house, it was almost dark. Su's mother took them to dinner before letting them go.
The Su family had a lot of chickens and ducks, so Su's father brought some back, as well as pork ribs, pork trotters and other things, filling the entire table.
Because we have to get up early tomorrow, everyone should get some rest.
Zhang Hewu had a smile on his face the whole day, even when he went to bed.
Meanwhile, Zhang Xingrong was also very happy, lying down with Lan Sao and chatting. They talked about things in the production team. Lan Sao knew that Wen Shize was suffering over there, and she couldn't help but feel distressed.
