Chapter 67: The Current Situation of the Bai Family



As soon as the jar was opened, the overbearing aroma of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall wafted out, and the whole family was drooling with greed.

Seeing this, Shi Liu also felt like eating, so she simply served a large bowl to Su Sanlan: "Mom, this bowl is for you, come and try it and see if it tastes good."

Su Sanlan looked at the bowl full of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, her eyelids twitched, and her face was distressed: "How come you gave me so much, kid?" As she said that, she wanted to pour some to Shi Liu.

Shi Liu quickly blocked the bowl with her hands: "Mom, I just hope you eat more. If you eat less, I will feel uncomfortable."

Hearing this, Su Sanlan was even more moved. She didn't insist on going back. Instead, she served Shi Liu a large bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and urged her to eat quickly. Then, she said compassionately, "Okay, since your eldest sister asked you all to try it, then you all should try it."

In order to prevent some people from taking too much, Su Sanlan personally served the rice to the whole family.

As soon as Brother Shi San ate it, his eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Sister, this master chef is amazing. I think it tastes better than what Boss Qian made."

Not to mention the others, they had never eaten any other Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. They ate without even raising their heads, chewing each bite many times before swallowing it.

Shi Liu looked at Su Sanlan's happy face, and a warm feeling flowed through her heart: "Mom, I will buy another jar and bring it back next time I have a holiday."

Although Su Sanlan didn't know how much this jar cost, but since it contained both meat and sea cucumber, it must have been expensive. "We can't waste this money anymore. They have enough to eat and drink at home. If they still want more, we'll burn them."

As the eldest son, Brother Shi was the first to speak: "Sister, the brothers just need to try it. You don't need to go out and buy Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. Our family is actually living a pretty good life. Don't worry about the family all the time. Buy more delicious food for yourself on weekdays. Studying is very tiring." He used to get a headache whenever he read. In his opinion, since his sister was so good at studying, it must be very tiring.

"Well, that's a bit like being a big brother." Su Sanlan turned to Shi Liu and said, "This Buddha Jumps Over the Wall must be very nourishing. If you want to eat it every day, go buy it. If you don't have enough money, just tell mom."

"No, Mom, I still have plenty of money. Besides, I can make money writing articles now. A while ago, an article I wrote was accepted by a newspaper and they gave me 3 yuan. When I write more in the future, I will get more money."

When Su Sanlan mentioned the article being published in the newspaper, she almost forgot about eating Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. "That article you wrote is so good! The commune leaders came to promote it and study it a while ago."

Shi Erge said happily: "That's right, our family is so proud, and our eldest sister really brings honor to our family."

When Brother Shi and the others thought of that scene, they all grinned with joy.

Su Sanlan curled her lips with a hint of disgust. None of them were as capable as her daughter. Their Shi family would still have to rely on her daughter in the future.

Shi Liu wanted to know what the backlash of the Bai family's formation would be like, so she pretended to be curious and asked, "Mom, how is the Bai family doing? After I left, they didn't come to our house to cause trouble, right?" She always felt that Secretary Bai gave people a gloomy feeling, and her brothers were no match for him.

Su Sanlan slapped her thigh and said happily, "Forget about the Bai family. The people in Baijia Village are like they've been possessed by a jinx. They're all terribly unlucky. Secretary Bai went to the back mountain and broke his leg. Then, the young men who went to look for him also broke their legs. It's really a rare sight."

"As for Secretary Bai's nephew, Bai Houyi, it's said he suddenly fell ill overnight and aged like an old man. It was terrifying. His father, Bai Laoer, was also unlucky. I don't know how he fell and broke all his limbs. It was a tragic scene."

Shi Erge added, "The people in Baijia Village are in a state of panic. Many of the educated youth who were assigned to Baijia Village want to leave, but neither our village nor Sujia Village has any vacant rooms, so for a while, the two sides are at a stalemate."

Brother Shi Si said with a look of disgust: "I don't want those educated youth to come to our village." It's not that he dislikes the educated youth, but the educated youth living in Baijia Village are more annoying than the educated youth Qiao Hongbin in their village.

Shi Liu was quite surprised at first that everyone in the Baijia Village had suffered a backlash. Then he thought that few people could stick to their bottom line when faced with shortcuts. Since he had chosen this path in the first place, he deserved the backlash now. It was just that the children who would be reborn into the Bai family in the future would be a little pitiful.

Su Sanlan said with a hint of pride, "I heard from your uncle that the production team is planning to re-elect the branch secretary. Secretary Bai might have to step down. There's even no need to go through the hassle of re-election to appoint a replacement. They could just let Su Dachuan take over. If Su Dachuan's brother hadn't gotten into trouble, the position of branch secretary would have belonged to the Su family long ago."

Shi Liu remembered that her family suspected that the Su family member was killed by Secretary Bai. She didn't know whether this was true. If it was true, then there was a chance to overturn this old case.

It can be said that most of the villagers in Shitou Village have no good feelings towards the people in Baijia Village, and they are determined not to work together on weekdays. Now that the production team secretary has been replaced by a member of the Su family, it is simply the best thing.

Shi Liu had a hunch that the formation of the Prince's Tomb on the Daqing Mountain had also loosened, and she wanted to go to the back mountain to take a look, but she was really tired at the moment, so she had to go to bed first as arranged by Su Sanlan.

After waking up, Shi Liu felt full of energy, but it was already late, so she decided to go to the mountain tomorrow.

Qiao Hongbin walked in wearing a military coat: "Auntie, we came here to change the wicker box. Do you have any new ones at home?"

Su Sanlan looked at the newcomer and her face immediately broke into a smile. This Qiao Zhiqing was a generous person and had come here before to buy a rattan box. "We have some, just come and pick one. Boss, hurry up and find rattan boxes for Qiao Zhiqing and the others."

Upon hearing this, Brother Shi quickly put down the steamed bun in his hand, then went to the main hall and found five rattan boxes: "Here are all the rattan boxes I've woven recently. Qiao Zhiqing and the others can take their time to look at them."

Gu Aiguo and Su Youcai were both wealthy people, so when they saw the rattan boxes that Qiao Hongbin bought, they wanted to buy some too. Unfortunately, the Shi family's rattan box business was extremely booming, so they arrived a little late and could only place an order. Fortunately, the Shi family was quick and had finished weaving it today.

Gu Aiguo was the first to try it out. He looked at each one and found that they were all of good quality. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Brother Shi: "Brother Shi, your craftsmanship is really good! In my opinion, it is no worse than the ones in Friendship Department Store. Even the handles are very easy to use." After that, he paid the bill very readily.

Su Youcai quickly took a wicker box, paid the bill directly, and handed over a pound of White Rabbit milk candy.

Su Sanlan happily put the candy away. All the educated youth who came to buy rattan boxes would bring some rare items. Those who were rich would give more, and those who were poor would give less.

When Su Youcai saw Su Sanlan accept the candy, a smile suddenly appeared on his lips: "Auntie, I just smelled the scent of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall--"
