The entrance of Chenjia Village is just to the north, and two miles further out is the place where the road is blocked.

After arriving, Village Chief Chen pointed to a clearing and said: "This is a three-way intersection, tomorrow, the village will build a thatched hut and a stove, if you see what else you need, just say it." ”

This place is bigger than Tiangu imagined, with a wide field of vision, and the surrounding environment is also good, there is a small forest behind, and a thatched house is set up at the intersection, where people can rest their feet and drink tea to quench their thirst.

Du Shi circled around, and his mouth couldn't close with joy.

"Village chief, I want to set up a bigger stove, and when the time comes, I will move my family's own big iron pot over!"

Village Chief Chen nodded: "Okay, you have the final say, this stall will be yours from today onwards!" ”

Du Shi happily took Tiangu's hand, obviously excited, and after Village Chief Chen took them around the neighborhood again, suddenly, a cowherd baby ran not far away, which was the cow egg in the village.

"Village Chief, Village Chief! Our village is here to build a road! ”

Village Chief Chen was taken aback: "It's coming!" What about people?! ”

"It's coming soon! I'll run fast, I'll send you a message! ”

Village Chief Chen: "How many people came?" Is it from the government? ”

Niu Dan: "There are a lot of them!" There are about seven or eight, all of them are strong men, I don't know if they are from the government, but they are dressed quite plainly anyway. ”

Village Chief Chen turned to Du Shi and Tiangu and said, "That's it over here, I'll go over and take a look, it's important over there." ”

Tiangu immediately said, "Can I go?!" You know, I'm going to the barracks, and now the road is blocked, and I've been worrying about it. ”

Village Chief Chen thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, then you can go with me." ”

A few people walked outside the village, and as soon as they walked out of a mile, they saw a few strong men of five big and three thick not far away. Village Chief Chen couldn't help but speed up his pace, and Tiangu also seemed to see hope, with a happy look on her face.

"Ladies and gentlemen, but I am the village chief of Chenjia Village who came here to clear the road."

The strong men stopped and turned to look at him, "You are the village chief?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes, you were sent by the government?"

The man at the front glanced back, "yes, let's clear the way." ”

Village Chief Chen: "Thank you, thank you!" This road has been blocked for two days, and if it doesn't pass again, our village will be sad, but please everyone! ”

The man in front glanced behind him again, this action attracted the attention of Village Chief Chen, and he also followed his tiptoes, only to find that the man in the back was more sturdy, and he had already walked over with a shovel, he took an ordinary peasant hat, and asked in a deep voice: "Blocked for two days?" Is it difficult for the villagers to eat and drink? ”

Village Chief Chen was stunned, and Aunt Tian was also stunned.

From her point of view, this man suddenly stepped forward from behind, as if a majestic mountain had suddenly stood in front of him, and Tiangu had indeed never seen such a strong man, and her heart tightened for a while.

"No, no."

Village Chief Chen didn't know why he stammered, he explained: "There are wells in the village, and I drink well water, and I can usually be self-sufficient in vegetable fields and stocks, but if I want to block it like this, I'm afraid I'm a little annoyed......

The man nodded, he took off his hat, revealing a pair of dark eyes, Village Chief Chen probably knew that he was the leader, and stepped forward to take the initiative to shake the person's hand: "Strong man!" I'll leave it to you! I don't know how much the government promised you, but I definitely don't treat you badly, old man! Brothers help me Chenjia Village, we will be grateful! ”

If Zheng Youhai followed, he would faint when he saw the scene of Village Chief Chen and the man in front of him calling him brother and brother, because this man was none other than Gu Xiancheng, who had just come out of the county government in the morning, including the seven or eight men behind him, who were also soldiers of the Chengyang Army.

Gu Xiancheng took off his military uniform, and he did look like an ordinary rough man, but his momentum was still majestic, and even Village Chief Chen stammered.

Gu Xiancheng nodded: "I'll try to get it done in three days." ”

Can it be dredged in three days? Village Chief Chen almost knocked one out of excitement, "Okay, good, what do you need, just say it, all the strong men are hard, I'll let people send some herbal tea." ”

When the village chief said this, Tiangu immediately said: "I'll go and prepare, it's hot now, I'll boil some honeysuckle dew to clear the heat." ”

After Tiangu finished speaking, two or three men all looked over, including Gu Xiancheng.

It's just that the rest of the men straightened their eyes when they saw her, but he frowned.

"This place is dangerous, don't come here, and you don't need any flower dew, just water."

He was rough and rude, and he was a little fierce when he frowned, as if he didn't want to see a woman's house, Tiangu was stunned, although there was a trace of weirdness in her heart, but she didn't show it at the moment: "Let's do some, I'll let people send it, the big sun, the honeysuckle is on fire." ”

After speaking, Tiangu left with Du Shi.

Du Shi was also a little uncomfortable in his heart: "Why does this person look fierce?" Where did the people come from, it shouldn't be some kind of bandit who recruited An, right? ”

Tiangu shook her head: "Forget it, it has nothing to do with us, I just hope that the road will be opened as soon as possible." ”

-

When the two went, Xiaobao and Xiaozhuang asked Grandma Hua next door to take care of them, and when they went back, Aunt Tian picked up the child as soon as possible.

"This little baby is so good! No trouble at all! ”

Tiangu thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you." ”

Tiangu carried Xiaobao back to Du's yard, and as soon as she turned around, she heard Du scolding with her waist crossed: "His grandmother's!" Who's shit is pulling at the mouth of the old lady's yard! ”

Tiangu immediately went to see it, it was really, weird and disgusting.

Du Shi probably knew who it was in his heart, so he deliberately said loudly: "Some people here are just cautious, and they can't see others!" This dog also followed the owner, uneducated! ”

Tiangu stepped forward to persuade her, and Du Shi cleaned up the gate of the courtyard: "Forget it, I'm too lazy to meet her in general!" I'll help you boil that honeysuckle dew, your business matters. ”

Honeysuckle is indeed on fire to relieve fever, as long as Tiangu sees it, she will definitely pick some back, dry it, and boil water into medicine It is a good thing. Honeysuckle dew is not a hassle, just boil, and put a little less tangerine peel to improve the taste.

When Tiangu was busy working in the kitchen, the village chief asked people to pass the word again, saying that they would work overtime tonight to support the stall at the head of the village for the Du family, and the people who came to repair the road worked hard, so it was best to go over tomorrow to help, at least have a mouthful of herbal tea and a mouthful of hot rice to eat.

Du Shi agreed: "You let the village chief rest assured!" I'll have the cool skin ready today! ”

"By the way, and this afternoon, if it's convenient for you, send a meal to those strong men, and the village will pay for it!"

Du Shi was stunned for a moment, probably feeling that time was a little tight, but Tiangu walked out: "Okay, wrap it up on me." ”

Niu Dan nodded before going back.

"Girl, it's too late to make cool skin, right?" Duch asked.

Tiangu shook her head: "Don't make cool skin, you prepare for tomorrow, I'll come." ”

When Tiangu returned to the kitchen, she found that there was still leftover rice in the pot, and she made up her mind immediately.

Egg fried rice, it's not troublesome to make, it's fast and filling. made up her mind, and Tiangu immediately went to dig the eggs.

In addition to the eggs, there was still half a ham left on the beams, which was also cut and cut into small pieces.

Oil rises in the pot, the cut ham stirs out the fragrance, wafts a burst of bacon fragrance, and pours the beaten eggs directly after being served, the egg aroma and the meat aroma are intertwined in the pot, the ham precipitates the fat, the eggs become tender yellow, and finally pour in the scattered rice. Tiangu sprinkled salt in the rice in advance to absorb the water, and the essence of the overnight meal was loose, and soon, the aroma of the rice in the iron pot was also stimulated, and the eggs were evenly intertwined with the white rice, which was attractive, and the fat of the ham was wrapped in it, which was crystal clear.

Du Shi was originally preparing tomorrow's cool skin outside, but when he smelled it, he came: "It's so fragrant!" ”

The fried rice with egg and ham was just out of the pot, and the sweet aunt smiled and said, "It's just right, eat it first and then continue to make it." ”

After a busy day, the two of them were indeed hungry, Xiaobao was also hungry, and the sweet aunt prepared pumpkin paste for her son, and after eating, the cow eggs came.

"It smells so good! I was hungry as soon as I finished eating. ”

Niu Dan smiled and entered the courtyard, bringing a number of stoneware bowls and lunch boxes, "I'll deliver rice." ”

Tiangu smiled and helped him pretend: "It's hard work." ”

"It's a little thing!"

"This is honeysuckle dew, quench the thirst of the strong men."

"Done! Then I'm leaving! ”

The Du family's courtyard returned to tranquility, and after the meal, the sweet aunt helped the Du family prepare tomorrow's food together.

On the first day of setting up a stall, I was always a little nervous.

And the entrance of Chenjia Village.

Gu Xiancheng led his soldiers to work for two hours, and the sediment was not cleared before the tip of the iceberg was cleared.

"Will—"

The deputy general walked up to him and was about to shout, Gu Xiancheng gave him a look, he immediately closed his mouth, stepped forward, and whispered for a long time: "Big brother." ”

Gu Xiancheng glanced at him lightly: "What's the matter?" ”

"If we go on like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to finish it in three days, and if we can't call some brothers tomorrow?"

Gu Xiancheng: "No need, just hurry up, some of them have been sent to other villages, and besides, we have a special identity, so it's not good if there are too many people." ”

"The general is for the people, and his subordinates admire."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately patted his mouth again, "Wrong, you must remember." ”

"Dinner is coming! And water! ”

The cow egg sprinkler came from not far away, running faster than anyone else, Gu Xiancheng put down the shovel and said, "Eat, fight quickly!" ”

"Yes!"

The group of old men shouted in unison, and the momentum startled Niu Dan, but everyone walked over like no one else, and took a bowl of rice and a pot of water in an orderly manner.

Niu Dan hadn't even spoken yet.

"This, this is egg fried rice made by Tiangu...... Extraordinarily fragrant! And she deliberately boiled honeysuckle dew! ”

Sweet aunt?

Is that the little lady in the afternoon?

The soldiers looked at each other, then opened their lunch boxes.

They march out all the year round, and their requirements for food are to fill their stomachs, and the food in the army is ...... So everyone's expressions were faint and they didn't have any expectations.

But when they saw the rice in the bowl, they were stunned at first, and then couldn't help but take a deep breath: "This is fried rice?" What a fragrance! ”

Some people are anxious, and they have already sent it to their mouths with a spoon, and they didn't expect to eat it in their mouths. The soldier hadn't eaten such a fragrant meal for a long time, and he couldn't even say a word for a while, so he just gobbled it up.

Looking at others again, it is not much better, the rules in the army have been forgotten, it is like a hungry tiger pounceing on food, Gu Xiancheng saw it when he came over, and he couldn't help frowning again, this time, even the deputy next to him didn't speak, and desperately pointed to the last one for him to taste quickly.

Gu Xiancheng took it calmly, opened it, and took a bite.

"How?! It smells so good! It's been a long time since I've eaten such a delicious meal, but it's still fried rice! The eyebrows of the pair danced.

Gu Xiancheng was also a little surprised, and looked down, the ham, eggs, and rice were all wrapped in fat, and the things that were willing to put oil were all delicious, and his hungry stomach roared, and he was not polite, and took a big gulp into his mouth.

For a moment, only the sound of spoons hitting bowls could be heard, and finally, everyone wiped their mouths with unfinished satisfaction, and after taking the honeysuckle dew and drinking it, they let out a satisfied sigh.

Tut! Some soldiers sighed.

"Such a delicious meal, why isn't it in our room! It's a pity, it's a pity! ”

Gu Xiancheng said in a deep voice: "In wartime, where are there so many picky rules, eat and work!" ”

The soldier quickly stood up, not daring to say another word.
