The captain refused at first because he knew Zhou Yubai would not let everyone down with food. However, Zhou Yubai insisted and said it was breakfast money for everyone.
Even if this matter gets out, it is reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it.
The captain thought it might be Gu Qichuan's intention, so he agreed.
He thought Gu Qichuan was rich and was unwilling to stay at Zhou Yubai's house, so he wanted to build a house quickly.
Money is popular in every era.
Everyone is very motivated.
twelve o'clock.
Shen Qingli's buns are also steamed.
Her family didn't have any tableware, so she specifically asked everyone to bring two large bowls or lunch boxes so that she could serve everyone meals.
Sun Xiuli helped Shen Qingli push the business cart to go to Gu Qichuan's place.
The aroma of white bread buns is so tempting.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw.
Nowadays, unless it’s a festival, who would be willing to buy white flour?
"Thank you all for your hard work. For lunch today, I'll treat everyone to meat buns made with mixed flour and egg soup. Each person can have four buns and you can have as much soup as you want." Shen Qingli said to everyone with a smile.
The eyes of those who work are all bright, meat buns!
Besides, can that be called mixed noodles?
That's clearly white flour!
Everyone swallowed unconsciously, washed their hands hurriedly, and then lined up to get the buns.
The one who got the bun in front took a bite and said, "It's full of meat!"
There are no wild vegetables or anything like that, just pure meat!
The others who got the buns also hurriedly took a bite, and it was all meat!
The white flour meat buns feel so good, and give me an indescribable sense of happiness.
Many people felt a sore nose after eating the meat buns, and they didn’t know why. Everyone secretly decided to work harder in the afternoon and not eat other people’s meat buns for free.
What's more, there's still fifty cents!
They eat and get paid, but they don't put in any effort. They are simply not human.
The four buns were big in size, with thin skin and big fillings. They were able to finish them all. How could they not leave two of these good buns for the elderly and children at home to try!
Many people ate two and then started drinking the soup.
Shen Qingli saw it and blinked. She was about to say eat more when Sun Xiuli pulled her back and she shook her head.
Shen Qingli immediately understood what Sun Xiuli meant, and guessed what everyone was thinking. She felt a little uncomfortable. These men were very simple and honest, and the good ones were always thinking about their families.
That's good too.
But when she thought about how everyone had to think about their families even when eating meat, she felt even more uncomfortable. It was all because of poverty.
Now that we have not yet implemented reform and opening up, we cannot do business and make money. We can only work hard in the fields, and in bad years, we go hungry.
How many children don't grow tall because of malnutrition, and how many children will never grow up...
Shen Qingli let out a breath softly. She had to think of a way to make life easier for the people in the village.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Shen Qingli and Sun Xiuli pushed the cart back to the courtyard.
Shen Qingli made about twenty extra buns. She packed all of them and stuffed them into Sun Xiuli's pockets. "Auntie, take them back and let my uncle and the others have a taste."
"Qingli, what are you doing? You've given too much. One per person will be enough." Sun Xiuli knew that Shen Qingli would let her take some food back, and she thought a few buns were a lot.
Who would have thought that this poor girl would be given so much!
"Auntie, I light the stove for the family at night, and you've been helping me all morning. If you don't take these back, I'll be embarrassed to ask you for help tomorrow." Shen Qingli insisted.
"This..." Sun Xiuli was still embarrassed.
"Auntie, go home quickly and have some rest. Come early tomorrow and leave later in the afternoon to help me make a quilt." Shen Qingli blinked.
After hearing what she said, Sun Xiuli accepted the buns.
"Okay, Auntie is good at sewing, just leave it to me."
Shen Qingli saw Sun Xiuli off with a smile.
The house only needed to provide lunch, and in the evening she only prepared food for her own family.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon when the sun was at its hottest, Shen Qingli cooked a large pot of mung bean soup to clear away heat and relieve summer heat, and she and Gou Wa delivered it to everyone.
After drinking mung bean soup, everyone felt more energetic!
In just one day, the main structure of Gu Qichuan's small house had been completed and he was just waiting to put up the roof beams.
At half past four, Gu Qichuan asked everyone to finish work and go home to rest.
"Thank you, everyone, for your hard work."
"You are too polite, Mr. Gu, we have good food and drink, it's just a little bit of effort, it's no big deal."
"That's right. That's right."
Everyone went home laughing, holding their bowls. Each bowl had at least one meat bun in it, and everyone was very happy.
Soon, the news that a house was built for Gu Qichuan and Zhou Yubai's family and that they were given white flour meat buns for lunch spread throughout the village.
Widow Zhou threw the rag in her hand to the ground viciously.
"That idiot Zhou Yubai has lost his mind. He actually spent so much money to feed outsiders with white flour and meat buns! He didn't even think of sending some to his mother!" Widow Zhou walked out while cursing.
Normally, Widow Zhou would definitely not take the initiative to get close to Zhou Yubai, but today, she was really angry. She felt that Zhou Yubai had lost his brain after marrying Shen Qingli!
She, as a...mother, must go and warn him.
Moreover, after Shen Qingli went to Zhang's house that day, when she went to propose marriage to Xiaocao again, she couldn't even enter the Zhang family's door!
People directly said that it was not suitable and now they didn’t want to find a wife for Zhuzi!
There was no way Widow Zhou believed their reason. She thought that it was because Shen Qingli said bad things about Xiaocao that the Zhang family refused.
I really don’t know what these people are thinking. How can I believe the words of Shen Qingli, a sickly person!
snort!
She is going to teach Zhou Yubai and Shen Qingli a lesson today.
Yes, it was Shen Qingli who provoked her first, and coupled with Zhou Yubai’s stupid behavior, she had the right to come to her house!
Widow Zhou trotted along...
Zhou Sicheng looked at her back and cursed her twice in disgust, calling her an idiot!
What's the use of going there now!
Zhou Yubai didn't take her seriously at all.
Zhou Sicheng frowned. He was thinking about the day of the arson. He had searched almost every yard but found nothing.
That's very wrong.
Could it be Shen Qingli!
She must have been reborn as well, so she also knew that the thing was valuable, and she had already taken it out and exchanged it for money!
Otherwise, how would they have the money to build a house!
Yes, that's it!
Zhou Sicheng felt that he finally knew the truth, humph!
But, the things were indeed gone, and his road to wealth and glory was cut short by Shen Qingli again...
If he wanted money, he could only threaten Shen Qingli. He could pretend to be mysterious. Zhou Sicheng's eyes turned and he felt that his idea was very feasible. He turned over and got off the kang.
He still can't do this alone, he needs to find someone to help.
Zhou Sicheng left home quickly.
Over there, Widow Zhou had already rushed into the courtyard.
Zhou Yubai and Gu Qichuan were making furniture. Shen Qingli was going to the foot of the mountain to look for Gou Wa and Niuniu. She happened to run into the powerful widow Zhou...
