The Tong family asked them to go back after lunch, after all, the journey is so far, how can they be hungry.

The couple discussed it and agreed.

In the middle of noon, the craftsmen working in the courtyard started their meal on time. The staple food is a large steamed bun with Sanhe noodles, and the big pot dish is braised pork belly with cabbage and potatoes.

Before the meal was served, the smell of meat came out, and the thoughts of the people who worked at that time flew over.

Xizi, who was helping her brother in the backyard, swallowed her saliva and secretly asked her brother: "Brother, is this meat dish for us to eat?" ”

Dongzi raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and said uncertainly: "Brother doesn't know." ”

Hongniu looked at her two younger brothers and said with relief: "We are here to work for the master's family, and we can eat enough." ”

Xizi thought about it, isn't it, since her father injured his leg, their family hasn't had a full meal for a long time.

He was now thinking that even if it was hot brown rice, he could eat two large bowls. He was so hungry that he drank only a bowl of thin rice soup in the morning.

Thinking of this, he glanced at his brother again, and when his brother went out, he seemed to drink a scoop of cold water.

Finally heard the sound of cooking in the yard, and the three hungry brothers and sisters put down their work and ran to the yard.

Next to the makeshift stove in the yard, two aunts are bringing steamed buns to everyone.

"Our master said, steamed buns and vegetables can be eaten as much as you want, until we are full. But there is one thing, you must not waste food, you can take as much as you eat. ”

"We know that we will not spoil our food."

The people here are from poor families, and it's good to have a stutter. If you dare to abuse food, let alone others, you will let your parents know, and you will have to take a meal on the soles of your shoes.

The three Dongzi sisters and brothers, holding the steamed soft steamed buns distributed to them by the eldest aunt in their hands, as well as a bowl of cabbage and potato stewed pork belly for one person, all have a very unreal feeling.

Kiko's eyes fell on the pork belly in the bowl, and her excited voice changed tone. "Sister, there is really meat, or a big fat slice."

The red girl listened to her little brother's words, and her heart was sour. Since Daddy injured his leg, their family hasn't eaten meat for a long time.

The people who were eating together next to him were also staring at the slices of meat and oil stars in the bowl.

The stout man took a bite of the steamed soft steamed bun and said to himself: "Just eat here, we are worth it today." ”

These people often go out to work, and they do the most tiring work in the Lord's house, but they eat the worst food.

What they often eat is brown rice with lost teeth, boiled cabbage with a handful of salt in it and it comes out of the pot.

What's more, salt is not put away, who makes salt expensive this year!

Today, when they saw the food at the county magistrate's house, their first thought was: The county magistrate is a good one.

As the saying goes, there is no harm if there is no contrast.

All of them have worked for the Cao family, not only can they not get paid, but they also have to be beaten and scolded, even if they eat, they don't know the leftovers that are cold and rancid for a few days.

However, they worked for the new county commander today, and when they came in, they were also terrified and terrified, and they were also prepared to not get paid.

Just after eating at noon, they immediately changed their opinion of the new county commander.

In fact, their minds change when they work in the morning.

There were no overseers, no scolding, only two scholarly men assigned them to work.

Later, they learned that the younger, more elegant man was their newly appointed county magistrate.

Seeing such a county magistrate and such food, they secretly felt in their hearts that they would be able to live a good life in the future.

……

Xia Pozi saw that there were fewer and fewer steamed buns in the cage drawer, and she couldn't help but talk to Wang's mother.

"Sister of the Wang family, these people are too good to eat, that man actually ate five steamed buns in one go, and this is another one."

Mother Wang smiled disapprerovingly, "Think about it, when we first arrived at the master's house, were we better looking than them?" ”

Xia Pozi: "On the day I first arrived at my master's house, I ate three bowls of dry rice in one go, which scared our girls. ”

Thinking of this, Xia Pozi wanted to laugh.

She really wants to laugh, as a subordinate, it is their blessing to meet a good master.

The red girl took another steamed bun, and after taking a satisfied bite, she lowered her head, hid behind her younger brother, and secretly stuffed most of the steamed bun into her arms.

When Kiko saw her sister's movements, she stopped eating most of the steamed buns in her hand. "Sister~"

When the red girl saw that Xizi was about to stuff the steamed bun into her arms, she stopped him. "Junior brother, you and the eldest brother are growing up, we can finally have a full meal today, you two must be full."

Fuyuko: "Sister~"

"Sister, most of the steamed buns here, just give them to their parents and mothers, you have to eat enough." After the red girl finished speaking, she drank the little vegetable soup that was left in her bowl. Meimei said: "The food made by the county magistrate tastes good, and the oil and water are sufficient, and we have earned it this time." ”

"Sister~"

Yiqing, who was standing in the west chamber door, watched the interaction of the three sisters and brothers.

……

In the evening, the three siblings were the last to leave. When they took the sixty big coins handed over by Wang's mother, their hands trembled with excitement.

Xizi was even more happy to clapped her dirty little hands and shouted: "I can also make money to treat my father's legs." ”

"Well, we have to come over early tomorrow, or we won't be able to pay us." Dongzi took over the salary given by Wang's mother, and her heart was also hot.

The red girl was even more tearful, took out her handkerchief and handed it to the eldest brother, and then watched the eldest brother put the sixty big purses with the handkerchief, and carefully kicked them into his arms.

Seeing the eldest brother pack up the big money, the red girl didn't know what to say. She never dreamed that the three of them could make so much money in one day.

Just listening to the big money wrapped in the handkerchief and the rattling sound, she felt that she couldn't hear enough in her life.

She really wanted to pinch her face, was she dreaming?

The red girl was thinking wildly, when she saw Xia Pozi coming out of the kitchen with a clay pot, and when she saw the three of them, she asked, "Child, we still have a few steamed buns and half a pot of vegetable soup left at noon, do you want them?" You can eat it hot when you go back. ”

Dongzi didn't think much about it, and said, "Yes." ”

"Then you take this pot of vegetable soup, and I'll go in and get steamed buns for you." Xia Pozi put the clay pot in Dongzi's hand and went into the kitchen to get the steamed buns.

"Eh~ Thank you, Mother Xia." The red girl recognized the surname of the mother who served them food at noon with the surname Xia.
