The pig-killing banquet on this day lasted from noon to night. Although everyone in the village had some money now, they could eat meat once or twice a month.
But it was different to eat as much meat as today: pig-killing soup, braised pork, stir-fried pork shreds, stir-fried liver, fried noodles, wonton meat soup, vermicelli meatballs, liver, lungs, and dried vegetables hot pot...
It looks like an ordinary, homely dish, but it makes the person who eats it feel happy.
The oldest one, 76-year-old Grandma Xi, had tears on her face after eating the first braised pork.
"As an old lady in her eighties, I made up my mind to die when I heard that I had to leave Houshan Village.
It was my two daughters-in-law and my sons and grandchildren who stopped me and begged me on their knees, saying that their family would fall apart without me, and they insisted that I go with them.
They also said that if I insisted on leaving, they wouldn't be willing to flee the famine either. I figured I was still in good health, and if I couldn't walk any more, I'd find a way to end it.
But as I was walking, I ate meat that I hadn't eaten for a long time. It was so delicious that I thought, why not walk a little further.
Look, even those fleeing famine can eat meat. This life obviously has hope. Who knows, as they continue walking, they might find a bright future.
Later, looking at those people with the plague, I thought that this time I might get sick.
However, a miracle doctor appeared in our village and found a cure that reduced the number of deaths to just a few. After I drank the medicine, I was miraculously able to walk again.
At that time, I thought, if God doesn’t take me away, I should take care of my grandchildren more, look at them more, and give them more instructions.
As we walked further, I ate the white flour given by Pusa again. I realized that although God seemed to have given us a dead end along the way, he still cared about us and wanted to give us a way to survive.
Since God doesn't let me die, what reason do I have to live one day at a time? Let's go, keep going, until we reach our new home.
Now, we have a new house and plenty of meat. Before I fled the famine, I never dared to imagine such a life."
After saying this, the old lady smiled and kept wiping away her tears.
Everyone who heard this was deeply moved, and Lao Qian, the clan leader Luo, and others even raised their glasses at this time.
"We have come this far after going through great disasters, bandits, robberies and plagues. The reason we are able to get here is because of our unity.
Facts have proven that people can plan for themselves, but in the big picture, we must have the mentality of helping each other and supporting each other. When we encounter difficulties, everyone thinks of helping each other and working together to achieve our goals."
Chief Luo looked at Village Chief Zheng Changan. "Village Chief, you should also say a few words."
The old village chief stood up and spoke loudly.
"Therefore, our village will have new village rules. Everyone can have small plans, but we must have great unity. The specific details will be discussed and formulated by several district heads."
Xiushui and the old lady sighed. "Our village is really getting better and better. We now have village rules, although these rules may not necessarily bind everyone."
But as long as we have a clear direction, I believe that we, the people of Linji Village, may become a new business school in the world in the future."
Mo Yunwen nodded slightly after listening to this. Although he had just arrived not long ago, he still knew through the correspondence with the little girl, Hei Mei, Uncle Zhong and others that the people in this Linji Village now had a business acumen.
In the future, if they can support each other and promote each other's development, the people in this village may become a great help to him.
Almost instantly, Mo Yunwen decided that he could also involve the people of Linji Village in his business...
However, the details still need to be observed. Thinking that this trip would give him nearly ten days to rest, Mo Yunwen looked at Xiushui with a much gentler look.
Feeling the man's attention, Xiushui pretended not to see it, but she couldn't ignore the hotness on her face.
The old lady looked at the young couple with great interest. To be honest, she was a little happy that she had traveled through time and space.
If it were modern times, given my granddaughter's personality, it would be difficult for her to get married before she was 30 or 40 years old.
Moreover, even if she is in her thirties or forties, she is very likely not to be married. In fact, it is impossible for my granddaughter to find such a sincere man in modern times.
"Mom, I think Yunwen is a good kid. If he's suitable, why don't we arrange a marriage for the two of them?"
Thinking about the fact that her granddaughter and Mo Yunwen had already had sex in her dream, the old lady nodded.
"Alright, Yunwen has about ten days of vacation this time. Let's think about it and decide on booking it for the two kids."
Wen Sunan was a little unhappy when he heard that his daughter was going to get engaged, but Zhang Xinxiang clapped his hands.
"When children grow up, they will fly away sooner or later. As long as we think that they will have a good life in the future and find the right one for them, we as parents will be happy, right?"
"Wife, you are right. I just can't bear to see my daughter leave."
Zhang Xinxiang scolded him. "You're being shortsighted again! If Xiu'er married someone else, you might still have to worry about her staying away."
But Yunwen's yard is built next to ours. Even if the girl gets married, it will be like transferring from one hand to the other and coming back in no time.
To put it bluntly, with Yunwen as your son-in-law, you have one more son, and our family will still live a lively life here in the future.
That's it, why are you still worried? "
After hearing this, Wen Sunan's brows relaxed.
"Yes, yes, my wife is right. I am short-sighted."
Zhang Xinxiang didn't dislike him, she just held her hand and pinched it gently.
Her man was in pain, and the reason he didn't react was because he couldn't bear to leave his daughter, so he didn't think about it.
When she chose this man, she never disliked his stupidity.
The reason Mo Yunwen came here was actually to arrange the marriage as soon as possible. As for getting married?
That requires Xiu'er's consent. Now he just wants to find his young fiancée as soon as possible.
After dinner, Mo Yunwen took the initiative to ask a matchmaker to come and propose marriage, and the old lady smiled and agreed directly.
"Okay, actually, the child's mother and I had already discussed this during dinner today. I didn't expect that you, my child, would agree with us."
Mo Yunwen grinned. Fortunately, he had the courage to bring it up. Otherwise, it would have been such a disappointment if the girl had brought it up first.
However, Uncle Zhong, after hearing that both parties were going to propose marriage, came over enthusiastically to discuss various matters with the old lady.
"Madam, we don't have any elders in charge here, but the official media can invite four."
"If there are no parents, then there is no such thing. We don't have any such elaborate etiquette."
Out of gratitude for the Wen family's generosity, Uncle Zhong gave a generous betrothal gift.
At that moment, he presented the betrothal gift that had been prepared earlier.
The old lady opened it and looked at it, then stood up suddenly.
