Su Tian watched as Ma Chunling went to pick vegetables, and she busied herself making soup.
Since there was no meat, she planned to fry eggs and make a loofah and egg soup.
She fried the eggs, added water, covered the pot, and asked Lu Xiao to watch the fire while she hurried to pick the loofah.
When Su Tian arrived at the vegetable garden in the backyard, Ma Chunling was picking green beans.
"Su Tian, what brings you here?"
"I've come to get the loofah. Have you picked it yet?"
"It's picked, it's right here."
"Then I'll take them back first, you can pick the others."
After Su Tian finished speaking, she hurriedly took the loofah back, peeled and washed it, and cut it into pieces.
In no time, the water boiled. Add the loofah, boil for a few more minutes, add seasonings, and then pour it into a bowl.
Then, she went into the room and chopped up all the remaining cured pork and sausage. She used one to stir-fry with green beans, another to stir-fry with winter melon, and then made a tomato and egg stir-fry. That would be enough for the three of them.
"Lu Xiao, are you hungry? If you are, get a bowl and have some soup first."
"Wait a minute, let's wait until you all come together first."
The three of them worked together to cook the dish, and it was ready to eat in about forty minutes.
“I feel like my appetite has increased a lot since I came to the countryside,” Lu Xiao said while eating.
“Aren’t you going to work? Work is tiring and you eat a lot,” Ma Chunling replied.
"But I don't feel tired. I've only been pulling weeds for a day or two, how could I be tired?"
"You'll be tired when it's time to harvest," Su Tian said with a smile.
“Haha… that’s right, harvesting rice is really tiring. Although we are both teachers, the primary school will have a holiday when harvesting rice, so we teachers have to go too,” Ma Chunling said with a smile.
"What will you do if you want to eat meat when harvesting rice is so tiring?" Lu Xiao asked again.
"We can only buy it in town during our breaks," Su Tian said to Lu Xiao.
The three of them ate, chatted, and laughed, creating a pleasant atmosphere.
When others saw this, they all remarked that the relationship between the three was getting better and better.
Especially that newcomer Lu Xiao, he's only been here a few days and he's already gotten along so well with Su Tian and the others, he's really something.
Chen Gang felt very unhappy and resentful when he saw Su Tian chatting and laughing with another man.
Why does she smile at other men but scold or beat him?
But he didn't dare to approach Su Tian, afraid of getting beaten up. He was already terrified of being beaten, so he could only endure it.
Ever since He Hua slept with Chen Gang, if he didn't have anything to eat at Zou Daying's place, he would come back to eat what He Hua cooked, and He Hua would usually save some for him.
He Hua also saw Chen Gang's expression just now and knew his unwillingness, but there was nothing she could do. Su Tian was no longer the person they used to fool.
After finishing his meal, Lu Xiao helped wash the dishes and then planned to go back to his room. As he passed through the courtyard, he happened to run into Chen Gang, who glared at him fiercely.
Lu Xiao found this person somewhat inexplicable, but didn't pay much attention to it and walked straight into the room.
