At the Shen family's side, there is also a large table full of dishes today.
Brown rice, pork belly stewed with sauerkraut and vermicelli, cabbage and tofu stew, fried peanuts, and a large plate of scrambled eggs.
Hu Cuifen bought some medicine for Shen Changwang, and his waist is almost healed.
The family had their meal at the large square table in the main hall.
Chen Hehua and Ma Peng were also invited back by them, along with their two sons.
The four of them were very surprised to see such a sumptuous meal on the table.
Ma Peng is ten years older than Chen Hehua. He had bald spots on his head when he was a child and became bald when he grew up.
He is a good bricklayer in the brick factory, and the tendons on his arms are plump and fleshy.
But because he has been bending over to work for many years, his back is a little hunched, and his skin is rough, making him look like a man in his fifties.
He placed the one pound of sesame cakes and half a pound of fruit candies he brought on the altar of the Shen family, then sat down at the first guest seat with a smile on his face. "Dad, Mom, have you made a fortune?"
The two old guys haven't asked him for money for a long time. Isn't something wrong?
Chen Hehua looks similar to Hu Cuifen, with a delicate oval face and a sallow and dull complexion.
She pulled the two children to sit at the bottom seat of the square table and asked happily, "Mom and Dad, has my second sister decided on a husband? Which family?"
"Humph, I won't marry a farmer like you, I want to marry a rich lady in the city."
Chen Yinhua glanced at her elder sister with disdain, fiddling with the red hairbands on her two braids.
"This is what Lin Xiaozhi bought for me. It looks nice, doesn't it? He's from Beijing and will be back soon. He wants to take me with him."
Upon hearing this, Ma Peng smiled and handed a piece of pork belly to Chen Yinhua's bowl. "Oh, congratulations, second aunt! When you become successful in the future, don't forget your eldest sister and your eldest brother-in-law!"
"Of course, you are all my blood relatives. If I become rich, you will naturally benefit from it. As for that idiot cauliflower, even if she kneels down and kowtows to me ten thousand times, I won't even look at her."
After saying that, Chen Yinhua proudly picked up the piece of meat and put it into her mouth, chewing loudly.
"Okay, it's a good holiday, why bring up that damn girl?"
Hu Cuifen, who was sitting in the seat of honor, kept searching for meat in the vermicelli and putting it into Shen Changwang's bowl.
As for Shen Jinbao, he didn't say a word, but kept his head down and ate scrambled eggs.
Shen Changwang was very polite today. He gave a piece of meat to each of his two grandsons and two pieces to the stable.
"Don't be shy, just eat as much as you want and then we'll chat."
"Okay!" Ma Peng didn't understand why his father-in-law had become rich and generous.
After hearing what he said, I ate happily with my stomach opened wide.
Seeing that her parents were not angry, Chen Hehua hugged the bowl and ate it all in one gulp, not even paying attention to the child.
The meal was quickly finished, and Shen Hehua cleaned up the dishes. Shen Changwang and Hu Cuifen asked Shen Yinhua to take Shen Hehua's two children and go out to play with Shen Jinbao.
They have something to talk about with the stable.
Seeing their cautious attitude, Ma Peng looked seriously at his father-in-law and mother-in-law, who were several years older than him, and asked, "I wonder if the two elders have any advice for their son-in-law?"
Hu Cuifen and Shen Changwang looked at each other and said with a smile, "I'll go keep watch for you."
After she went out, she looked around the house and confirmed that no one was there. Then she stood guard at the door of the main hall and said, "Go into the inner room and talk."
Ma Peng stood up and helped Shen Changwang into the inner room. He was really confused about what the two old guys were trying to do in such a mysterious way.
Shen Changwang waved to the stable, who approached him confusedly, "Dad, tell me."
Shen Changwang whispered something in his ear.
Mapeng's expression changed from shock to surprise, and finally he burst into laughter.
The night before, when he and Ge Erdan were returning from drinking, they happened to run into Wei Xiao and Xie Junqian who were seeing patients.
At that time, he heard from afar that Qin Li was seriously injured.
If what his father-in-law said was true, he could take advantage of the opportunity when Qin Li was injured and recuperating at home to go into the valley and take a look.
If we can find the pigs raised by Qin Li, we can have a fat year.
However, we still have to make sure whether he is at home.
"Dad, don't worry, leave this to me, I will make sure it's done for you."
"Okay, after this is done, we'll split what we get equally."
Shen Changwang had a sly smile on his face. If his waist was not weak, those benefits would never have gone to the stable.
Ma Peng suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, "I heard that my cousin's family is slaughtering a pig tomorrow, so I'd like to go check it out."
"Kill the pig!" Shen Changwang stood up happily, but unfortunately pulled the wound on his waist and cried out in pain. "Take Hehua with you and tell her I can't get out of bed. Let Caihua, that damn girl, bring the meat back."
"Okay, I know what to do."
The stable left with a smile.
In the evening, Wei Xiao and Song Che came to the Qin family again, accompanied by a tall and strong young man.
They picked up two sacks of herbs, two large barrels of palm oil, and two sacks of ground tea bran powder.
When the young man came, he looked at Chen Tan for a moment and gave her a hand-knitted turtleneck sweater to wear.
"My name is He Weihua, and I'm a friend of Qin Li and the others. You can call me Brother He. This is something my wife knitted for you. Try it on. If it doesn't fit, I'll take it back and ask her to modify it."
He Weihua has a square face, a straight body, clear eyes, and the temperament of a typical military brother.
"Thank you, Brother He."
Chen Tan took the sweater with a smile, compassion in his eyes.
He Weihua is a minor supporting character in the early part of the book. Like Song Che, he was also sent down to the tea farm.
Also present were his parents-in-law and daughter-in-law.
However, their ending was tragic.
The whole family died in the mudslide in June of the following year.
