Chapter 87 Greedy
On the long table in the front yard, there are several plates of dried fried mushrooms, some delicious, some spicy, and some plain.
The kids came over and started eating it. Since they had never eaten it before, they all shouted that it was delicious.
Liu Zhihua also tried it in the kitchen and it was indeed delicious.
Wang Zhuangzhi also ate it for the first time. The more he chewed, the more delicious it became. His eyes lit up and he asked: "How is this made? It tastes more delicious than the meat after eating."
Mu Kuan smiled and explained: "In the early years when I went out to sea and traveled around, there was nothing good to eat on the boat. I saw fishermen doing this, so Xiuhua learned how to do it. It saves time and effort, and it looks very simple."

Xiuhua also smiled and nodded and said: "Aside from spending some gas, it is very convenient to use."
"It tastes very delicious." Aunt Liu also gave a thumbs up.
Liu Zhihua saw that the children were eating well and said with a smile: "I just learned a general lesson. If the children like to eat, they will come often in the future and cook for you."
"Thank you, Auntie." Liu Weiqing was sweating from the spicy food and nodded sheepishly.
"That's great, I love eating it!" Erya also raised her hand and said.
"Jiaojiao also likes it~"
Jiaojiao holds a mushroom in her hand, her pink mouth is covered with sesame seeds, and she reveals a row of cute little white teeth when chewing, and her white face is full of joy.
Aunt Liu took out her handkerchief and wiped her mouth. She looked at Jiaojiao with a curious look on her face and said with a sigh: "Looking at Jiaojiao, I feel curious. Zhihua, your family has accumulated so much blessing to have such good fortune.
Baby, you are so greedy."
Jiaojiao smiled and said: "Thank you, aunt~"
"Oh, thank you for your kindness." Aunt Liu smiled and took her little fleshy hand, unwilling to let go.
Xiuhua's cheeks were not as skinny as before. She had gained some fat and she looked more gentle. She also smiled and said: "Sister, Mu Cheng's father and I went sailing to many places and met many girls from rich families."
, our Jiaojiao are no worse than them, sitting there we look like young ladies from a wealthy family."
Everyone was praising her sweetheart, and Liu Zhihua was smiling from ear to ear.
"It's all good. These children have good character and will be designated to be filial in the future. Just wait and enjoy the blessings." Old scholar Liu also said with a smile.
"No, my Erya just said she wanted to raise fish, and everyone is just thinking about getting rich." Liu Zhihua smiled and touched Erya who was eating fried mushrooms next to her.
In front of so many people, Erya smiled shyly, and then continued to eat fried mushrooms.
Wang Zhuangzhi looked emotional and said with a smile: "We have never read and are illiterate, and sometimes our brains are not as flexible as the children. Now we are able to buy the children, which is the first credit."
"I'm really envious of you. I will come to your house more often and take advantage of your good fortune."
"Hey, as you said, the meat is still being stewed in the kitchen. Let's chat while we eat. The food is ready to be served."
……
The lunch meal was very sumptuous, with more than a dozen meat dishes, as well as some vegetarian dishes and cold dishes, including beets, which the children loved.
Braised fish, short ribs with garlic sauce, braised boneless chicken legs and soft and glutinous braised pork, braised duck, as well as stir-fried lotus root with diced chili, stir-fried dried pork slices with chili, green bamboo shoots and peanuts mixed with wine,
There are also rice cake balls kneaded with brown sugar, sweet and sour chicken nuggets, and a big pot of sweet soup...
The table is covered with more than twenty dishes.
Jiaojiao's eyes lit up. It was the first time since she became a human that she saw so many dishes. She swallowed her saliva and was very happy.
The white meow under the table also drooled because of the delicious smell. She used her paws to pull Jiaojiao's legs and said, "Jiaojiao~ I want to eat it too."
Jiaojiao nodded upon hearing this, and while her parents were talking, she ran to the kitchen to get a big bowl.
She feeds the meow whatever she eats, and each cat eats happily.
Liu Zhihua looked at it without saying anything. Guabao regarded the cat as an eyeball. Now that the family is not short of money, they don't care about the rations.
"I'm happy today. I bought two bottles of wine. Let's drink less."
Wang Zhuangzhi moved out the wine he bought secretly.
While others were pouring the wine, Liu Zhihua pinched the boss out of sight and whispered: "You can drink if you want. Why are you buying things secretly behind my back? You don't know why I'm bullying you."
Wang Zhuangzhi smiled naively, "How can that be possible?"
Then, he stood up, picked up a large chicken drumstick with chopsticks, put it into the lady's bowl, and whispered: "The chicken drumstick you like, eat it while it's hot."
With so many people there, Liu Zhihua blushed for no reason, pushed him again, and muttered: "Okay, let's eat yours."
Wang Zhuangzhi scratched his head and smiled, then raised his glass and started drinking with everyone.
Everyone was chatting and eating, and the laughter was very leisurely.
……
After finishing the meal, it was already afternoon and the sun was almost setting.
Wang Zhuangzhi took Qiusheng and Aunt Liu's family away. He first sent Aunt Liu and his wife back to the village entrance, and then sent the two children to school in the town.
Because it was not time for the rest, the two children came back from leave at noon, so Wang Zhuangzhi promised his wife to send them back before dark.
After all this trouble, it was already dark when Wang Zhuangzhi came back.
Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Zhihua left Xiuhua and the others to stay. It happened that there was an extra room at home, and the two sisters might not have seen each other for a long time.
It was rare to encounter such an opportunity, so Xiuhua accepted it with a smile.
In the evening, Mu Cheng and Mu Kuan stayed in the guest room, Zhihua and his sister stayed in the main room, and Wang Zhuangzhi went to Qiu Sheng's room to spend the night.
It was a rare meeting between the two sisters, and Liu Zhihua and Xiuhua chatted until very late before taking a break.
……
The second day,
The door of the main house was closed, and the two sisters had not yet gotten up from sleep. Wang Zhuangzhi and Mu Kuan took the initiative to help make breakfast.
This will give the two sisters a good meal to boast about during breakfast.
Mu Cheng is at home these days because their teacher is ill and will not return to teach until tomorrow.
It was not far from the town, so Mu Kuan Xiuhua and his wife stayed for lunch, planning to send Mu Cheng to the town in the afternoon so they could attend classes early tomorrow morning.
There were too many leftovers at noon yesterday and many dishes were not finished yet, so she didn’t have to cook them at noon today. Liu Zhihua steamed a pot of rice and ate it with the hot leftovers.
Not to mention, the leftover heat makes it even more flavorful, and it tastes delicious when mixed with rice. The kids eat two or three bowls, and the adults eat four or five bowls, and they share the leftovers after the meal.
Finished eating.
In the afternoon, while the sun was not strong, Wang Zhuangzhi drove Mu Kuan and Mu Cheng to the town in a carriage.
I have been to town several times in the past few days. Because I offended the second master of the Zhao family, Wang Zhuangzhi was extremely careful, but he did not run into him.
In his heart, he thought that Mr. Zhao didn't remember his appearance. He felt that he had already forgotten about so many people he saw every day, so he thought it would be fine if he stayed away.
……
Afternoon,
Liu Zhihua and Xiuhua were chatting in the pavilion in the backyard, and the children were gathered around the bridge of the pond.
Erya took a long bamboo pole and tested the depth of the water in the pond. He tried all the corners and scored the bamboo pole with stones to mark it.
Xiao Li was hurriedly helping to hold the bamboo pole, while Jiaojiao was lying on the edge of the wooden bridge, looking at the fish inside.
There are too many lotus leaves and they are so dense that you can’t see them at all, and I don’t know exactly how many fish there are.
"Good boy, stand aside and be careful if you fall down."
Liu Zhihua from the other side of the pavilion shouted.
