"The cattle and sheep are suffering from dysentery lately, so just slaughter the sheep!
I heard from Uncle Dazi that Naren A-nai’s craftsmanship in making Hada cakes and Shaomai is really unique! He made me crave them for a long time.
Lan Guoer said this with anticipation.
"It just so happens that my grandfather and I brought a lot of rice and flour with us this time. Village chief, please make some arrangements. We can organize the team members to make pancakes and steamed buns together tonight, and then have a bonfire song and dance. That will be our welcome party, okay?"
In those days, no one had enough food, so when you visited someone else's home, you usually had to bring your own food.
What's more, there are more than ten people in their group.
Although the arrangements have been made above, there are also corresponding standards.
As the saying goes, it is better to be prepared!
In order to have a good time on this trip, before coming, Lan Guoer specially prepared 200 kilograms of flour and 100 kilograms of rice as luggage to take on the train.
Thought it might come in handy.
"You kid! On our grasslands, who would invite guests to bring their own food? If this gets out, wouldn't everyone laugh their heads off?"
Wulijitu glared at her in annoyance.
"I know you mean well and don't want us to spend money! But we can still afford these foods.
As for the sheep, they still need to be slaughtered, so let's kill two fat ones. We can make steamed buns with one as you said, and roast the other one for a party! Let's all have fun together!"
"The captain is right! I have two kilograms of flour at home. I will go get it and use it to make steamed buns in the evening." An old lady shouted loudly.
"My family produces three pounds of cornmeal."
"My family produces vegetables and potatoes."
"I have butter and sesame seeds at home."
...As we were talking, all the ingredients for dinner were gathered together!
Lan Guoer: “…” No wonder they are called the Unity Brigade!
Everyone’s faces were filled with bright smiles, and they were vying to report the ingredients in their homes.
She couldn't help but be moved again by their unity and enthusiasm.
Before dawn, Da Zi, Liu Xiangqian and others took Baru back to the city.
Qiqige and Naren are preparing breakfast at home.
But when she was ready and went to call Lan Guoer to come for dinner, she found that Lan Guoer was not in the room.
Just as she was getting anxious and thinking about going out to look for her, she heard cheers coming from the sheep pen.
Immediately afterwards, Lan Guoer was seen walking towards this side, surrounded by a group of team members.
When she heard everyone talking about the bonfire party that evening, Qiqige realized that Lan Guoer had solved another big problem for them.
The breakfast is very rich and has a grassland flavor.
Cheese, pot of milk tea, fried rice, beef buns, hand-pulled meat...the table was filled with everything.
Qiqige enthusiastically poured her tea and said, "I don't know what you like, so my mother and I made a little more. Try them one by one and tell me which one you like. Don't be polite with us."
"I understand, Aunt Dazi!"
Lan Guoer smiled and nodded, then looked at the table full of food and couldn't help shaking her head!
I thought, she's not polite, but this breakfast is too polite...
After breakfast, Lan Guoer realized that they had not called home since they arrived here.
Fortunately, there was a phone at the brigade headquarters.
The phone rang and Qinghe answered.
Lan Guoer heard the commotion over there, as if someone was arguing about something, and she couldn't help but frown.
Their family has always gotten along very harmoniously, and no one has ever had a quarrel at home.
She's only been out for a few days, why are they still making a fuss?
"Oh! It's fruit!"
Perhaps because the room was too messy, Lan Guoer had to say it twice before Qinghe could recognize her voice.
"Did you and Mr. Su have a smooth journey? Did you eat on time? Are you adapting well over there?"
Qing Heke asked a series of questions at the top of his voice, as if trying to drown out the quarrel in the room.
Lan Guoer was worried about her family and didn't answer her question, "Auntie Qing, what's going on at home? Why do I hear people arguing?"
"Hey!" I only heard a heavy sigh from the other side, and then said,
"It's not a big deal! Just as you left, your elder brother and his wife came right after you left.
Mrs. Tang saw that they had been staying here for a few days and thought that it was the busy farming season at home, so she advised them to go back early.
But your sister-in-law didn't seem to want to leave, so the two of them started arguing."
"Brother and sister-in-law are there too?" Lan Guoer couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
This year's college entrance examination, Tang Long, the eldest son of the Tang family, also participated.
Knowing that he needed reference, Lan Guoer had sent him a lot of tutoring materials and mock test questions over the past six months.
In addition, Tang Long himself is a studious person. When she was still in Guangcheng, she heard Tang's mother tell them the good news on the phone that Tang Long was admitted to Kyoto Institute of Technology, majoring in civil engineering.
Lan Guoer also asked Tang's mother to prepare a red envelope of 100 yuan for her and Tang Zhan as a gift.
At that time, we did say that in case there was a shortage of train tickets when school started, he could come earlier and stay at home first.
But I didn’t expect that Tang Ming and Li Jinhua would also come along.
"Of course!"
Qinghe held the microphone with one hand and lowered his voice.
"I think your sister-in-law is not a good person! She seems to be blaming Brother Tang and Sister-in-law Tang.
It was said that the two elders were only concerned with living a good life with their youngest son in the city and didn’t care about the lives of their three families at all!
Tell me, is this what a daughter-in-law should say? "
Lan Guoer couldn't help but be stunned!
Li Jinhua has really grown in courage! She even dares to confront Tang's mother like this?
In fact, if she hadn't acted so strangely during this year's Spring Festival, Lan Guoer wouldn't mind helping them. After all, they were all members of the Tang family. If they lived a good life, they wouldn't have to make her and Tang Zhan jealous, and the old couple would feel better, right?
But who made Li Jinhua choose not to follow the right path?
"Then Aunt Qing, please persuade my mother-in-law and don't let her get really angry with them. I took her pulse before coming here, and her blood pressure has been a little high recently, so you have to pay attention to it."
Lan Guoer didn't care if Li Jinhua continued to act up, but she knew Tang's mother's temper very well!
Judging from the noise on the phone, he's probably running around the yard waving a broom again.
"Okay! I understand. Guo'er, you and Mr. Su should also make sure to rest well over there and take care of yourselves!"
After hanging up the phone, Lan Guoer sighed helplessly!
Every family has its own problems!
Many times, these closest brothers are not as easy to get along with as ordinary people who are not related by blood!
Mr. Su and others arrived in the afternoon and brought back good news.
It is said that there will be a market in this town tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. It is an annual market, the largest and most lively mid-year trading market except for the one at the end of the year.
It just so happened that Lan Guoer wanted to exchange for some local specialties and beef and mutton! This was indeed better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early, so she rushed it.
