Chapter 148 Sitting

"This child is smart at first glance. He turns out to be a child who studies!"

In order to lighten the atmosphere, the person who spoke at the beginning said in a more polite tone, "Brother, which country are you from?"

When mentioning this, Lu Quan's expression became slightly stagnant, and he said after a long time: "I am from the Lu family in Hexi."

He only talked about me, not us.

Lu Yuanshan, including the place where the ancestral hall is now built, belongs to the Lu family in Upper Hedong. Although the Lu family in Lower Hexi and the Lu family in Upper Hedong are from the same clan and support the same ancestor, they have already branched off for many generations.

There is not much traffic on weekdays. The Lu family from Lower Hexi can come to Upper Hexi only because the ancestral hall is here.

The young man sitting next to Lu Quan's right hand immediately asked: "The Lu family in Xiahexi? The people coming from the Lu family in Xiahexi today are all arranged at those tables in the northwest corner. Why didn't you go and sit there?"

He thought Lu Quan didn't know, so he stood up and pointed to the northwest corner, "That's where there are two jujube trees."

If Lu Quan went there, no one would say anything about him even if he brought his children to the seats.

After all, there are not many tribesmen in Xiahexi, and they are all familiar with each other. Lu Quanneng is definitely not an ordinary family who is willing to spend 100 yuan for his child to sit on the table.

Today's seat is not for free. Those who sit on the seat will have to pay money when the food is served.

One hundred coins each, Lu Quan and his son need two hundred coins.

Only a few of the Lu family are rich and promising. Most of them are ordinary local people who are still struggling for food and clothing every day. Many people only come to worship and kowtow, and even the head of the family is reluctant to come and sit down.

This seat, let alone such a half-year-old child.

The speaker stood up and looked around, then sat down with some annoyance: "You'd better not go there. Everyone is full and there's no room left."

The speaker just wanted to get close to Lu Quan, see how Lu Quan and his son were dressed, and see how he was willing to spend a hundred cents on a table for his children.

There should be some farm shops at some point, otherwise I wouldn't be so willing to do so.

At the same time, the people of the Lu clan might be able to put their relationship to good use one day.

"I'm not familiar with them."

Lu Quan replied in a low voice: "Although I come from the Lu family in Hexi, my great-grandfather moved his family to Guanyin Temple a few years ago."

Even the Lu family in Lower Hexi is a large branch of the family. This branch left Lower Hexi long ago and went up to Hedong. However, they did not move to Dongyang County and settled in the Guanyin Temple near the lake.

"It's from the Guanyin Temple! Wasn't your film flooded by floods a few years ago and almost finished?" The speaker realized that what he said was inappropriate and clasped his fists, "What, brother, look at my mouth.

, It’s really not intentional.”

That year, a flood destroyed several villages, and few people survived.

Even the Lu clan people here in Dongyang County know about this.

Lu Quan's voice became deeper and deeper: "It's okay, it's all over. Our village was flooded and the fields were gone. My family has a boat, and I'm lucky to have survived."

There were nearly a hundred households in four villages, but in the end only a dozen households were left.

It is said that in the lower reaches of Baima Lake, more villages were washed away, countless homes were destroyed, and many people were buried at the bottom of the lake.

While he was talking, the person who helped set the table began to serve the dishes.

Pork belly, lungs and radish soup, boiled meat, boiled tofu skin with cabbage, fried lotus root slices, stewed tofu with pig blood, roasted fish segments, radish and meatballs, green vegetable and rice noodle soup, six vegetables and two soups, plus a bowl of grains per person

rice.

This meal, it seems now, is already rich enough.

Lu Quan placed two strings of copper coins on the serving tray, one hundred coins each, totaling two hundred coins.

Seeing that such a half-year-old child also paid a hundred coins, the person who served the food immediately went to the accounting office with a tray piled with ten strings of copper coins.

As long as someone pays, it doesn't matter whether the person sitting at the table is an adult or a child.

When everyone moved their chopsticks, Lu Quan picked up the chopsticks and gave Lu Xiige two radish and meatballs. He also took a few vegetables and put them into the bowl in front of her. He made sure that the food was enough for Xiao Si to eat, and then he hugged Lu Shege with peace of mind.

He ate his rice bowl with the food in front of him.

Lu Quan didn't drink, wasn't good at socializing, and didn't care about the strange looks from around him. He just immersed himself in eating and taking care of the mistress next to him.

In Lu Quan's opinion, he spent copper coins. The father and son spent two hundred copper coins, so of course they had to eat well.

If it weren't for the mistress, he wouldn't be willing to spend the copper coins to have a meal.

Even if he came to worship his ancestors, he would probably just carry two pieces of dry biscuits, kowtow and burn paper like most people, and then leave.

When I felt hungry on the road, I ate pancakes.

Lu Quan felt that he was losing money even if he could eat delicacies from the mountains and seas for a hundred coins.

It was precisely because of Xiaosi that he was willing to sit at the table. Lu Quan sat at the table just so that Xiaosi could have a warm and full meal.

Lu Quan didn't care at all what others thought.

Anyway, as long as Xiao Si can eat well, he can't miss a piece of meat.

Lu Quan put enough vegetables into his son's bowl, and the people around him didn't say anything.

I'm so young, I'll eat you to death.

Everyone has such a big kid. They pay for food and don’t have much food. What can they say?

Although it was a dish, the father and son were still very polite. Each person had one radish and meatball. The father gave it to his son, and he didn't put his chopsticks into the meatball bowl. The rest of the dishes were only one chopstick.

Definitely not too much. It's not like some women sitting at the table with their children, eager to take the pot home.

Looking at this child, he is only about ten years old. He is sitting upright with his back straight, holding a bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, and is working hard on the large porcelain bowl in front of him.

The children also take their time when eating, taking one bite at a time and eating in a well-educated manner.

Such a child is so clean and well-behaved that it's hard for people to dislike him.

It can be seen that the family lives a relatively prosperous life on weekdays, and their children are well tutored.

I heard that he was a literate man, so no wonder he was willing to bring him a seat. If their family had such a decent son, they would be willing to spend the hundred yuan to let him enjoy the blessing of their ancestors.

At this moment, the people at the same table looked at Lu Quan somewhat differently.

The food is not as good as home-cooked food, the taste is average, but it is better because it is rich in oil and water and the portion is sufficient.

Lu Sheige ate most of the bowl of food with great difficulty, and could not eat the rest no matter what.

Lu Quan came based on her usual appetite, but she didn't expect that the food on the table today didn't taste to Lu Xiaosi's taste.

Seeing the child starting to count the grains of rice, Lu Quan stopped eating for a moment, turned around and asked, "Are you full?"

Lu Xiangge looked at the half-bowl of food left in front of him with an embarrassed look on his face, and nodded lightly: "Yes."

"When you're done eating, just hang around and eat. Don't go too far. I'll put this meal here for you to eat." After saying that, Lu Quan took the bowl from Lu Xi's singer and poured it into his own big bowl without any explanation.

Regardless of what others thought, Hululu started eating.

When Lu Sheige heard that he was told to go around and eat, she obediently squeezed out from the middle of the table, ran to the door of the ancestral hall, and stood on tiptoes to look in.
