Chapter 17: The Wish
There is a porcelain basin given by the system, which saves a lot of dough time, even so, making hundreds of buns, Lu Wei is still tired enough.
The gentlemen walked out with their stomachs on their hands, and before leaving, they made an appointment to come back next time.
Zhao Xuan wanted to stay and get close to Lu Weitao, but was driven away by Lu Wei, he was really tired and had to rest.
Lu Yuan watched the gentlemen go away, Shi Shiran entered the cow building, saw Lu Wei sitting on the table and gnawing on the pig's trotters, and said with a smile: "Avi, there is still a clause to the deed." β
Lu Wei didn't even look at him and said, "Get out." β
"I can't see it, your kid's steamed buns are really good. I won, look at the cow tower belongs to me, your father and son have no place to go, blame the pitiful. Why don't you be like this, you will be a cook here with me in the future, specializing in steamed buns, how about it? β
It seems that the cow tower has arrived, and Lu Yuan has to be nervous.
In response, a cleanly gnawed pig's hoof bone was struck in the nose. He groaned and said, "You stupid...... Why do you kid shoot if you don't agree with each other? I'm here for your good, and you don't want to think about it...... Ouch! β
"Get out!"
Lu Yuan hugged his head and ran around, Lu An walked in with a plate of cut duck meat in his hand, put it on the table, and said, "Are you really sure?" β
If Zhao Xuanqian burns more money, what about the gentlemen who came today? One by one, they rushed to stuff buns into their mouths, and some were choked and burped, and they still clung to the plates.
The son is a person who has great creation, and he can make steamed buns without a teacher, but what about other dishes?
Thinking about it like this, Lu An had a little more hope, and his mood was much better, and he was no longer so sad.
"Really." Lu Weidao: "This duck is from yesterday, right?" Don't eat overnight dishes, it's not good for your health. β
"Don't eat overnight? You've eaten it for fifteen years, and it's fine. "Lu An is not happy, a duck Dr. Yu has not touched, after he returned to the oven to cook, the father and son ate half of the small last night, and there is more than half of it left, so it can't be eaten? You have the ability to make money, and you can't treat money like this.
Lu Wei saw that the cheap dad was angry and stuffed the fat duck meat into his mouth, opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything. Aspergilloin or something, people who say it will be treated as a psychopath, right?
There was a bang outside the door, and something fell somehow. Lu An hurriedly came out to see, and quickly came in again, saying, "A little beggar fainted at the door." β
If he had given him something to eat before, now that his son is in charge, he has to ask his son what he means.
Lu Wei didn't wait for him to finish, got up and walked out, and saw a skinny little child lying on the threshold, dirty, his clothes were torn into strips, and he had a pair of bare feet, and his feet were covered with mud. The child seemed to want to come in, but before he crossed the threshold, he fell headlong.
Lu Wei usually meets an elderly beggar, he will give one or two yuan of change, and do some good things as much as he can, and he is still very happy. Wearing here, his mentality has changed again, seeing this little beggar, his nose is sour, if there is no Lu An, I am afraid that he will also fall into this situation.
Looking at the little beggar's snort, there was still breath, but he fainted from hunger. He carried the little beggar into the hall, poured a few sips of hot water, pinched his people, and the little beggar woke up slowly.
"Xiao Langjun is good, give me something to eat, the little one hasn't eaten for four days." The little beggar opened his eyes, and before he could see where he was, he begged.
Lu Wei wanted to get the pig's trotters, and Lu An preemptively put the duck meat in front of the little beggar. If the son doesn't eat it, it's better to give it to the beggar than to waste it.
The little beggar thanked him for his kindness, grabbed the duck meat with both hands and stuffed it into his mouth.
Lu Wei wanted to stop him and let him eat fresh pig's trotters, but when he saw that he was afraid that someone would snatch him, his cheeks were stuffed and bulging, and he grabbed two handfuls with each handful, and a plate full of duck meat was half empty, so he had to give up.
Soon, the plate was empty.
Lu Wei poured him a bowl of water and said, "Where are you from, why did you beg to come here?" β
"My youngest parents died of illness, and two acres of thin land were occupied by my uncle, who drove me out." The little beggar rolled down a lot of tears, wiped his tears with his sleeves that couldn't see his original color, and saw Lu Weizhi frowning: "You go to the bath first." β
It's just a beggar, doesn't have to be like this? Lu An wanted to stop it, but when he saw Lu Wei going to the kitchen to get hot water, he had to go over to help. The little beggar was clever, snatched the barrel in Lu Wei's hand, and carried it vigorously one by one.
The cleaned beggar looks delicate, and his eyes are black and white, which is very smart.
"What's your name?"
"Xiao Langjun, the little one is called Su Mu."
Su Mu blinked his smart eyes, lay on the ground and kowtowed, and said: "Ask Xiaolang Qun to take in the little one, the little one guarantees to work diligently, as long as the little one eats a mouthful of food, the little one will be grateful." β
After a few months of begging career, Su Mu talked about hunger, as long as he could have a full bite to eat, he was willing to be a slave here.
If Lu An didn't take him in, Lu Wei was only afraid that he would not be much better than him, and while being grateful to Lu An, he said, "Dad, let him stay?"
"Okay." Lu An has long had this intention, since the last guy left, he had to do everything by himself, and he was already tired.
"Xie Alang, Xie Xiaolang." Su Mu was ecstatic and kowtowed to the two masters respectively.
Lu Wei helped him up.
The eleven-year-old child already understood the hardships of life, so he rushed to clean up the dishes and chopsticks and went to the kitchen to wash them, and then carried water to wipe the floor.
Lu An discussed with his son: "In two days it will be the Qingming Festival, I will prepare sacrifices, and we will go to worship your mother." β
Lu An has mentioned this matter several times, and every time he mentions it, he stretches out his sleeves to wipe his eyes, which shows that the husband and wife are deeply affectionate, and Lu Wei naturally agrees.
On the day of the Qingming Festival, leaving Su Mu to look after the family, Lu An carried the sacrifice on his shoulders and took his son to his wife's cemetery. Lu Wei wanted to take the flat burden on his shoulder, but he didn't agree.
Along the way, from time to time, I met people who went to sweep the tombs, and everyone had sadness on their faces. Lu Wei sniffed, he would never see his parents again, they missed themselves so much, and his fiancΓ©e, they were all preparing for the wedding, he crossed this time, alas......
With a long sigh, Lu An mistakenly thought that his son missed his mother, and comforted: "If you recover your mind, your mother must be very happy." β
After passing through Zhengjiakou Village, walking another seven or eight miles, you will arrive. There is a small cemetery there, where the villagers of Zhengjia Village are buried when they are old.
Lu An set up three animals in the open space in front of the tomb, lit incense, and asked his son to kneel down and worship.
Lu Wei prayed silently: "I will be filial to my father, carry forward the family business, and please bless me." β
With this body, become the son of the Lu family, inherit the Lu family's property and look at the cow building, naturally you must also honor your cheap father Lu An. Lu Wei made a solemn promise to his mother in this life.
Lu An wiped his tears and chattered: "You died early, you can't enjoy the blessings of your son, your son is a great person, my good days are still ahead, you don't have to feel sorry for me......"
Lu Wei listened silently, thinking, no matter what will become in the future, I will live well and honor you with all my heart.
Lu An talked for a long time, and saw that the sun was rising in the middle, and then he reluctantly packed up the sacrifices and left with his son.
