Chapter 34: The Canteen Interlude
I followed the village chief for a long morning, walked around the village for more than half of the day, and the sun was getting bigger, and the people who were shining were warm.
The houses in Fanjia Village are relatively densely built, and most of the houses are built together, and there are one or two families next to them. The only two foothills that Su thought about were not inhabited.
But the foot of the mountain is particularly cool and breezy. Su only plans to build a wooden house here, so that he can come to enjoy the cool in the summer. When you don't come on weekdays, you can also use it as a place to store medicinal herbs.
Back at the village chief's house, the village chief's wife had already prepared the meal. A few dishes of wild vegetables that can't be named, and a dish of scrambled meat and scrambled eggs. Six dishes and one soup. It's really a rare abundance for the village chief's family. Just like scrambled eggs and scrambled meat, it can only be seen on the table during the New Year's holiday.
The village chief has two sons, the eldest daughter is married and is not at home, the two sons also married a daughter-in-law, and the second daughter-in-law gave birth to a two-year-old daughter, so she is not pregnant. Not long after the three daughters-in-law got married, they are now five months pregnant.
Su Wei and the village chief sat down at the table first, and everyone also sat down.
It was too late last night, Su Weiwei didn't see the village chief's family, the third daughter-in-law Liu's baby hugged her belly, and glanced at the second daughter-in-law Zhang. He sat down very carefully.
Zhang didn't seem to see it, and sat meekly with his daughter on the side.
"Ah, mother, why are there so many delicious foods today, and my favorite eggs, I know that my mother must feel sorry for my precious grandson in my belly! It's still the best mother. Liu was holding the plate of scrambled eggs with green light in both eyes.
Fan was stunned for a moment, these three daughters-in-law are usually very good at talking, why did they say such things in front of Young Master Su today!
Fan Laosan pulled his daughter-in-law under the table, glared at her, and hinted at her.
Although Liu was dissatisfied, he was not stupid and quickly shut up.
The village chief coughed and said embarrassedly: "Master Su, there is nothing good to eat at home, I hope you don't dislike it."
"Grandpa the village chief, don't call Mr. Su Gongzi Su, just call me Xiao Jin, I'm going to trouble the village chief and grandpa in the past two days." Su Wei smiled and showed two small dimples, well-behaved.
"Okay, Xiao Jin, you just treat this as your own home, you're welcome, come, you can taste it, this is your village chief's grandmother's fried wild vegetables." It's very fragrant. You're welcome, both of you! The village chief also happily greeted Xi'er and Uncle Tian, who were sitting on the side.
"No, no, no." "I'm in trouble with the village chief." Uncle Tian and Xi'er both responded.
Su Wei put a chopstick of wild vegetables in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it unsatisfactorily: "Hmm! It's so delicious, I've never eaten such a fresh and delicious wild vegetable! The village chief's grandmother's craftsmanship is really good, and the village chief's grandfather is really blessed! ”
When the village chief heard this, his heart blossomed, and he gave Su Wei another chopstick and wild vegetables: "If you like it, eat more, and there will be more!"
Fan also sandwiched some meat and eggs for Su Weiwei: "Come, Xiao Jin, don't patronize and eat wild vegetables, eat more meat."
Liu's was very tasty on the side, and his father and mother only knew how to clip him, and it was very hard for him to be pregnant with a child! Seeing that most of the meat and eggs that were already small fell into Su Wei's bowl, Liu couldn't help but speak: "Mother, people haven't eaten meat for a long time when they are pregnant with children!"
Fan's embarrassed smile also gave the third daughter-in-law a little egg and put it in the bowl. Liu was unfair in his heart, and he just wanted to say something.
Fan Laosan said in a stiff tone on the side: "Let you eat, you can eat, so many can't stop your mouth!"
As soon as he heard this, Liu was even more aggrieved in his heart. Tears immediately filled his eyes, and he was about to fall.
Zhang ate by himself, as if nothing had anything to do with him.
Fan Lao Er immediately came out in front of the peacemaker: "Brother and sister, don't be angry, the third child has that temper, you can't be angry when you are pregnant with a child." After speaking, he taught the third child a lesson like a big brother: "You are really the third child, your younger brother and sister are pregnant with a child, you don't know how to let her."
smiled apologetically at Su Gongzi again: "Master Su, I'm sorry, I let you see the joke."
"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay for Brother Fan to call me Xiao Jin too. My sister-in-law has to make up for it when she is pregnant with a child. I have a ginseng there, so I'll give it to my sister-in-law to make up for her body. ”
As soon as Liu heard this, there were still any grievances there, and he immediately became happy, ginseng is a good thing! That little one costs dozens of taels of silver!
The village chief immediately retorted: "No, Xiao Jin, you still keep such valuable things for yourself, how can you take them out and give them away!" The third daughter-in-law is like this, you don't have to worry about her! ”
Liu was suddenly dissatisfied: "Dad! It was given to me by Xiao Jin to replenish my body! ”
"What to make up, I see that you are very healthy, you don't need to make up!" The village chief really has a headache for his third daughter-in-law!
Su Wei couldn't cry or laugh, and he didn't force it.
After everyone ate, Liu went back to the room to rest, Xi'er helped the village chief's grandmother and Zhang's pack up their things, and Su Wei chatted with the village chief about renting land.
Su only told the village chief of his opinion.
If you want to ask people in the village to plant medicinal herbs, then I hope you can help keep this matter secret, after all, if you plant a large number of medicinal herbs, if there are more people who know, so as not to attract trouble from people with intentions. Also, the people in the village say that there are too few and a lot, so they have to choose someone to take care of it. It needs to be done in small groups. And there are many requirements for medicine, and someone must know a lot about this aspect!
The village chief listened and praised again and again. However, this is a major event, and it is necessary to open the ancestral hall and discuss it with the villagers. This Su only has no opinion.
And when Su Wei was discussing with the village chief, another big event happened in Nancheng!
