Chapter 235: Reluctant to Look Away

Shuiqing's family was also preparing food.

After removing the blood from the pig bones, they added a large pot of water and boiled it over high heat, then simmered it over low heat. They started stewing in the morning. At noon, the soup was milky white and rich, and it smelled sweet.

Fresh pork and soaked black fungus, green peppers, and pickled bamboo shoots were cut into shreds and fried together to make a simple version of fish-flavored pork shreds.

Pork shreds were used together with mushrooms, green and red peppers, ginger and garlic shreds, and soybean paste to make a fragrant and appetizing meat sauce.

In another large iron pot, the rolled noodles were put in.

For soup noodles, after the noodles are out of the pot, pour an iron spoonful of the thick bone soup on them, and then scoop a spoonful of fish-flavored pork shreds as a topping.

For mixed noodles, pour a large spoonful of the delicious meat sauce directly on the noodles after they are out of the pot, and stir evenly.

The noodles are hand-rolled with white flour. The noodles are smooth, chewy and elastic. The ingredients are fresh and the craftsmanship is good. After they are hot out of the pot, the person who receives them smiles especially happily.

The men did not crowd in the dining room, but sat in the wind and rain corridor in the yard, with the roof above to shade them and the wind blowing on both sides. They sat on the railing slabs or on the bluestone slabs on the ground, holding a large bowl of noodles with solid ingredients, and felt that the fatigue of the past few days was swept away.

Li Dani, Zheng Yan and other five women talked to everyone about the recent events in Shanshui Village while eating.

After eating half full, the men deliberately slowed down and told them about the things along the way in detail.

When it was mentioned that Mr. Bai had prepared paper money for them to commemorate the sacrifice, Li Dani and the other five could not help but redden their eyes and sighed: "Mr. Bai is really amazing."

Not only did he help them find a place to settle down, find a kind and good host, give them resettlement fees, but he also took the trouble to prepare things for the sacrifice.

"Yes, we can't repay Mr. Bai, so we can only be nicer to Mr. Bai in the future."

"Mr. Bai is also easy to get along with, he is a nice person without any airs, he is polite to us, and he doesn't have any arrogance."

"Our boss is the same, don't you know? The five of us have been working for Aunt Ding recently, and we also get 30 cents a day! The boss told us to take it ourselves." Wang Qiuyue said happily.

"Well, you don't know, after we went back this time, we saw that the living people were also suffering. Only Mr. Bai's farm was better. Although the food was worse, there were at least wild vegetables and porridge to eat;

Most of the people we met along the way were starving. If we hadn't followed Mr. Bai and hadn't come here, we wouldn't dare to think about our lives."

The people on the corridor couldn't help but sigh.

The hands holding the coarse pottery basin tightened even more.

There were noodles made of white flour, real pork, and even the soup was made from big bones in this basin.

Those relatives who passed away never had such a meal until they died.

"Let's live well. Following the boss, our future will be better and better."

"Yes!"

"The wall of the Ding family must be built well, and things must be done beautifully. We must not hurt the relationship between the boss and them."

"I know, is there any need to say this?"

In the dining room, Bai Manshan told the situation of Fan Dazhu and Fan Erzhu again and again.

Fan Jin looked guilty, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

He chose the people. It's nothing to be injured normally. It's their own fault to be injured in this way.

Bai Manshan waved his hands repeatedly, "Hey, I just want everyone to understand that it's not our fault that we didn't take care of them. It was indeed their own fault.

You and Zhaodi don't blame us!"

Fan Jin smiled gently. How could he blame them? They helped to treat and pull them back. They have done their best and done it well.

Zhaodi shook her head like a rattle.

Big brother and second brother didn't help and made trouble. How could she resent Master Bai and others!

The topic of Fan Dazhu and Fan Erzhu passed by, and everyone started to move on to the next topic.

Bai Ziqian talked about giving the other half of the potato seeds to the villagers to plant, and by the way, he pointed out that it was in the name of their Bai family, so that his father would not let it slip.

Bai Manshan laughed happily: "It's better to use our family's name, otherwise they will easily gossip about it in the same village."

Bai Ziqian looked at his father in surprise, but he didn't expect that his father's first thought was exactly the same as Aunt Shuiqing!

Bai Manshan touched the top of the child's head lovingly, and said with emotion: "The two sentences of understanding the world are knowledge, and understanding human nature is writing. Although these two sentences are a bit vulgar, they are very practical. You still have a lot to learn."

Human nature is the most difficult to learn.

After saying that, he looked at the child worriedly. Ziqian used to hate him saying these things the most, always saying that he was full of money. The atmosphere was good today, and he didn't want to ruin this rare time for father and son to spend together.

Bai Ziqian nodded in approval.

He works every day but doesn't make any money. After working hard every day to make ends meet, he realizes that being rich is already pretty good. It's not easy for most people to be scolded for having a few stinky money!

Bai Manshan's happy face became even happier.

Shuiqing's family is really Ziqian's benefactor.

Hu's mother talked to the head of the family and Hu Wenhua about the construction of the wall in Shanshui Village, and mentioned that the Ding family also divided the road section.

Hu Wenhua blurted out without thinking: "Then I'll help Aunt Ding make adobe bricks in the afternoon."

Ding Jiajia looked up at him, and Hu Wenhua couldn't help looking at her. After their eyes met across the table, Ding Jiajia hurriedly moved away, but Hu Wenhua was stunned and couldn't bear to look away.

Qin Yilin's hearty and sharp voice came: "No, Aunt, I've hired someone! You must be so tired after going out, you have to take a rest as soon as possible."

Da Ni and Er Ni are very efficient at work. Their family is definitely faster than Zhang Tuzi's family. As long as they are not the slowest, it's fine.

Hu Wenhua looked away with difficulty and looked at Aunt Ding. He laughed loudly: "I will walk back with an empty car in the next two days. I am not tired at all!"

Da Zhu and Er Zhu took turns to pull the car back. The two of them lay on two cars. The weight of more than 100 kilograms was no different from that of an empty car.

In the past, Hu's mother would definitely persuade Wenhua to take a rest, but today she still wanted Wenhua to show up and let some people who were not optimistic about him see him.

"Okay, you go."

Hu the butcher said on the side: "I'm not too tired. I'll go with you after taking a nap."

With more people helping, the work of the Ding family can be completed earlier.

"No need, you old bones can just rest at home in the afternoon."

Hu the butcher:..... A few days ago, I praised him for being as good as he was in his youth. How come he is an old bone now!

The whole family had a lively lunch, chatted for a while to help digestion, and then went back to take a nap.

The nap is to restore physical strength and avoid the hottest sun at noon.

After resting, Hu Wenhua took the tools for making adobe bricks and set off.

Shuiqing looked at the absent-minded Ding Jiajia and suggested: "Jiajia, I made mung bean soup to cool down the summer heat, do you want to send it over?"
