Chapter 90: Stable



Chen Tan smiled faintly and took out half a pound of lard candy from his pocket.

"The pig farming matter was decided by Party Secretary Fang. I may not be able to do it well. If I encounter something I don't understand, I will have to ask Brother Erdan, Brother Dasong, and Sister Xueyan for guidance."

The three of them were repulsed by her deep down, especially Ge Erdan and Yang Xueyan.

Ge Erdan blamed her for stealing his good opportunity, and Yang Xueyan naturally blamed herself for not being able to benefit from Ge Erdan in the future.

But you shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you, especially when they give you such a big bag of candy.

The three of them couldn't help drooling at the sight of the greasy and sweet lard candy.

Yang Xueyan and Ge Erdan reached out involuntarily and grabbed a handful each.

Gong Dasong only has one right arm. He is not tall but quite strong, with a large bunch of keys hanging around his waist.

He looked at the lard candy and swallowed, but didn't take it.

Yang Xueyan took the candy but didn't eat it. She peeled one and put it into Gong Dasong's mouth. She raised her eyelids and asked Chen Tan, "What are you doing here?"

Chen Tan thought of the good things she and Gong Dasong had done, put all the remaining lard candy into her hands, and then looked at Gong Dasong.

"Brother Dasong, I'm here to get six bags of lime to disinfect the pigpen. I just looked around and didn't see the team leader or Accountant Shi. Could you please give them to me first? I'll tell them later."

Originally, the road was only built to the brigade headquarters, but Fang Desheng came back last night and asked them to build the road to the tea mountain.

Today, all the people in the team went to repair the road. Unexpectedly, these two people were left behind. I just tricked them into going back to help her.

"Okay, you come and move it."

Gong Dasong led her without hesitation to open the door of a small room next to the warehouse, which was filled with materials and tools for building a house.

Chen Tan couldn't move it by himself, nor did he want to. He turned around and looked at Ge Erdan, "Brother Erdan, Sister Xueyan, thank you for helping me carry it. I'll treat you to a drink at noon."

The two of them had just eaten the candy she gave them, so it was difficult for them to refuse, as there happened to be a two-wheeled wooden cart in the house.

Everyone joined in and helped carry the lime in and pushed it to the farm.

Gong Dasong had nothing to do, so he locked the warehouse door and came over to join in the fun.

Chen Tan asked them to help spread lime and clean up with an innocent look on his face.

The three of them were so angry that they should have stopped being so greedy.

However, since one has benefited from others' kindness, one can only blame oneself for one's bad luck.

They helped Shen Jinquan clean up and spread lime for disinfection. It took them more than three hours to clean up the entire farm inside and out.

Chen Tan naturally wouldn't ask them to work for nothing, "Brother Erdan, Sister Xueyan, Brother Dasong, I have a small favor to ask of you. Please help me build a kitchen here. I'll go buy some meat and wine, and we'll have a drink at noon."

The house where Ge Erdan used to live was more than 30 square meters. He lived and ate there alone, and the house was smoked black.

From now on, Shen Jinquan and Liu Xu will live with Shen Suosuo, and this room will seem small.

She planned to build a small kitchen for them under the eaves outside the door.

This way, the house will appear more spacious when only people live in it.

The three were about to leave, but after hearing this, they were unable to move their legs.

Yang Xueyan said, "I won't do it if there's less meat."

"Go buy some first. If you don't have two taels of wine, I'll leave immediately," Ge Erdan said, holding his head high with a stern look. "If I feel good after eating, I'll help you with your work this afternoon."

"Okay," Chen Tan said with a triumphant smile in his big eyes, "You can't lie to me. Don't eat and then run away."

"Sister, they can't run away as long as I'm here." Yang Xueyan said with a proud smile.

These two men are like grasshoppers in her hand, and no one can jump out of her palm.

Chen Tan smiled and gave her twenty yuan, asking her to go to the stable and buy a thousand bricks.

Shen Jinquan and Liu Xu will have to live here for at least a year, so since they are going to build a kitchen, they might as well build a decent one.

After she left, she took out thirty kilograms of rice from the space in a place where no one could see her, and went to the rice mill next to Qi Xiuyun's sales outlet to grind it into brown rice.

By the way, I bought five pounds of vermicelli, three pounds of wine, a bag of sesame cakes, and two packs of cigarettes at the sales outlet.

On the way back, he took out two pounds of bacon, two large cabbages, five radishes, and a handful of garlic sprouts from the space.

Gong Dasong had already brought his pots and pans. Chen Tan was thinking of borrowing from Xie Junqian, but now he didn't have to.

Seeing that she bought three kilograms of wine, Ge Erdan's eyes lit up and he worked harder.

Chen Tan took the opportunity to make another small request, asking Gong Dasong to give her a few more bags of lime, as she wanted to paint the small house where people lived white.

This is a private matter, but it's not impossible.

Gong Dasong took her and Shen Jinquan to the warehouse and moved four more bags of lime. At the same time, Chen Tan also moved two thick wooden boards from the room to make beds for Shen Jinquan and the others.

Back at the farm, Chen Tan was cooking while the three men were in a small room with a bed set against the whitewashed wall.

The sandalwood rice was ready and their work was almost done. Yang Xueyan brought back a thousand bricks.

The bricks were delivered by Ma Peng and the two masters. When Ma Peng saw her, he was a little scared.

He heard about what happened in Shen Changfu's family yesterday. This sister-in-law is a ruthless person.

Moreover, he also heard that she knew the police.

I heard that the police were quite nice to her.

The two chefs who came with him drooled at the pot full of cabbage, vermicelli and meat stew.

Chen Tan noticed their reactions, rolled his eyes, and smiled, "Brother-in-law, it's almost noon now, and you three haven't eaten yet, right? Why don't you stay here and have a bite?"

It's a good opportunity to ask some questions and find out where Shen Changwang's family's clothes come from.

The stable and the two masters were flattered. What a good thing!

Without any hesitation, they gathered around the big clay pot.

Ge Erdan and his team had been busy all afternoon, so they were naturally not very happy.

Chen Tan smiled and said, "You guys eat first, I'll go buy two bottles of wine."

"Don't buy it, that's enough." Yang Xueyan felt sorry for her money.

Chen Tan turned around and smiled, "Sister Xueyan, we haven't had a drink together yet, so I won't go home until I'm drunk."

The man in the stable was drunk and when he was flattered, he became careless with his words and was good at flattering people.

She ran to Qi Xiuyun's place and bought two more bottles of wine, as well as some cooked peanuts and fennel beans to go with the wine.

When they came back, they had already started eating. Chen Tan put down his food and kept urging them to eat and drink more.

Except for Shen Jinquan and Gong Dasong, Yang Xueyan, Ge Erdan, Ma Peng and the other two masters are all talkative. After drinking a little wine, they don't need to be polite and will reveal each other's family background.

Yang Xueyan kicked Ma Peng's thigh and said, "What kind of windfall did your father-in-law make? He's always gaining weight and getting new clothes. We're so jealous."

Not only her, but everyone in the team was curious about what kind of noble person Shen Changwang's family had met, because they didn't see any place in the county town selling those clothes.

Ge Erdan was a gangster and well-informed. He went to the next brigade to ask and found out that Hu Cuifen's family had no relatives in the city at all.

He patted Mapeng on the shoulder and said, "Stop telling us that your mother-in-law's niece works in the county town. There's no such person in her Hu family."
