Chapter 30 Someone is watching in secret
Faced with his wife's question at this time, Ding Gui could only tell her what happened at that time. He and Xiaodie both had a bad premonition, but they were afraid that everyone would worry unnecessarily, so they decided not to say it directly.
Then he pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's a good thing that the village chief is back. He himself said it's nothing serious. Let's cook and have a good meal today."
Hearing the word "eat", Wang Dafeng's eyes lit up and she immediately stood up and signed up: "I'll go skin the rabbit."
Zhang Xiu looked at the man and daughter and sighed, "Then you two should rest for a while. Cooking the rabbit will take a while. But what if the aroma of the meat gets out?"
"It's okay, cook it." Ding Gui waved his hand.
Living like this is a life of fear every day, so I might as well have a good meal today.
Zhang Xiu had no choice but to nod, turned around and went downstairs to help Wang Dafeng in the kitchen.
Only at this time did Ding Xiaodie speak: "Dad, take a rest for a while. I don't know what will happen tonight."
This was the only way for now. Both father and daughter decided to take a short break, and then wait and see what the village chief would say after they had eaten and drunk their fill.
At the same time, Lai Fu, who had returned home, made the same decision. He asked Dabao and Erbao to cook all the rabbits. The rich aroma of meat soon filled the house.
I didn't dare leave any of the soup used to cook the rabbit meat.
After cooking for a while, we scooped out two bowls for everyone to drink in turn, then added some water given by Xiaodie and continued to cook until the rabbit meat melted in the mouth and was so soft and glutinous that the mouth was full of meaty aroma when put into it.
The family then began to eat their first bite of meat in nearly half a year with mixed feelings.
…
Similarly, when Ding Xiaodie and her daughter were woken up, they soon smelled the aroma of meat.
Zhang Xiu also washed two black truffles and cut them into slices. She sprinkled a thin layer of salt on the black truffles that looked like they had a dense texture. Before she even ate them, the pure and rich mushroom aroma made her saliva water.
As for other mushrooms, simply wash them and stir-fry them into a dish.
Although wild mushrooms are delicious, they easily deteriorate once their roots leave the soil. If you don't eat them today, they will all rot tomorrow in this weather.
After all the dishes were served, Wang Dafeng looked at the sliced black truffles and wondered if they would taste good, but they looked much better than eating leaves.
But her eyes quickly turned to the meat in the pot.
Who would eat mushrooms when there is meat to eat?
This time Ding Xiaodie did not stop her. Anyway, such a full pot of rabbit meat and fried mushrooms was just enough for a family of three, so if Wang Dafeng asked for some, she would scoop it for her.
During this time, he did not forget to give her a few compliments: "Grandma behaved well today. Most of the young and old men in the village were willing to go out because of your scolding. I said that Grandma is actually very useful. She is not the good-for-nothing who only knows how to eat as the eldest and second uncles say."
Wang Dafeng's mouth was full of oil. As she ate, she said, "Girl, you're still young and don't understand what the human heart is like. When you grow up, you'll understand. There are no good people or bad people. We are all human beings. We all have weaknesses. We all know what it means to have dignity and not to have dignity."
The three members of the Ding family looked at the old woman in surprise: "..."
Not bad, she can actually say such philosophical words.
But Wang Dafeng didn't care about their looks. She was still focused on eating her own food. After everyone had finished eating, she wanted to stuff the remaining soup in the pot into her stomach.
That’s not all, you have to lick the bowl too.
The three members of the Ding family felt extremely uncomfortable and quickly got up and left the kitchen.
After they all left, Wang Dafeng put down her bowl and chopsticks, looked around with her eyes rolling around, and found that there was no one around. Then she quickly crawled under the table, picked up the piece of black truffle that she had accidentally dropped on the ground while eating, and put it into her mouth.
It's really strange. This thing looks ugly, but it tastes delicious. She likes the taste very much.
"Grandma, what are you doing?"
Unexpectedly, Ding Xiaodie came back. When she saw the old woman crawling under the table to pick up food from the ground, she naturally felt bad.
Wang Dafeng immediately crawled out as if nothing had happened: "Nothing, what's wrong?"
Ding Xiaodie didn't want to expose her: "Brother Dabao said there will be a meeting, young and old must attend, you should go too."
Wang Dafeng must go. We may not be good at other things, but how can we miss her when the village has some fun?
When the grandmother and grandson arrived at the street, the villagers were already sitting on the road on both sides of the street.
Village chief Lai Fu had not yet spoken, and everyone had only one topic to talk about at the moment.
"Do you smell the aroma of meat on this street?"
"Yeah, I smelled it too!"
"Which family is so rich that they still have meat to eat at this time?"
"That's right, just by smelling that smell, I can eat a few more bites of coarse flour steamed buns."
Wang Dafeng, whose family had always been poor, felt a little proud when he heard these people talking.
When she was in the village, everyone looked down on her family for being poor. But today, when the sun rose from the west, even the whole village envied them.
She couldn't help it for a moment, she was thinking about showing the oil on her mouth to the villagers...
"Okay, everyone, be quiet and let me say a few words."
At this moment, Lai Fu suddenly stood up and spoke, interrupting Wang Dafeng's actions.
He held a pipe in his hand and stood solemnly in the sunset light, looking extremely vicissitudes of life.
"Look, two hours ago, I followed a man on horseback. I'm sure everyone is curious about who that man was and where I went. Now, I'll tell you the answer."
"Let me tell you this, there's still one family in Yangliu Town who hasn't left! The one who took me away was their security guard."
What? There are still people in Yangliu Town?
This was something no one had expected. After all, since arriving in the town, everyone had entered every house they could enter and occupied every house they could occupy, but they hadn't seen anyone else.
Now after hearing what Village Chief Lai Fu said, everyone was a little confused.
For a moment, a feeling of uneasiness flowed through everyone's heart. They knew that leaving was only a matter of time, but after hearing that there were still people in Yangliu Town, everyone was actually afraid that they would have no place to live.
Lai Fu then told everything in one go.
It turned out that there was a rich man in this town named Lu Yan. He had done countless business in his life and created a huge family business. Later, he settled in Yangliu Town and owned countless fertile fields and houses.
This sudden disaster forced all the townspeople to flee, but Lu Yan stayed with his family.
Because he felt that his roots were here, he decided not to go anywhere else.
In fact, the villagers from Aozigou came to Yangliu Town in the past two days, and all the movements were under Lu Yan's control.
Today, I called Village Chief Lai Fu to discuss with him to let the villagers of Aozigou stay!
