120. The legendary seventh cousin

As the aunt talked, she was also greedy.

He simply raised his voice again: "Qiao Qiao - pick some more rape flowers for my aunt, and I'll go back and make rice soup to drink!"

The rapeseed flowers were sparse and sparse. They were grown by themselves from seeds that fell down at some point, and no one cared about them. They bloomed wildly.

Qiaoqiao carried the basket and burrowed into the flowers, picked a good spot, opened the small box in her arms, then grabbed the bumblebee's fat butt and put it on it.

The rapeseed flower stem is tall, but the flowers are delicate. After the bumblebee climbed up, the whole flower trembled slightly, which was obviously an unbearable burden for life.

Qiao Qiao sighed and had already forgotten his bamboo shoots.

Here, Song Tan was also aroused. Now he moved his fingers, and the thin spiritual energy on his fingertips drifted away in the wind. The whole bamboo forest rustled, and even the branches seemed much greener.

There are more and more bamboo shoots sprouting under my feet.

She moved her toes, looked at the right position, and dug out a plump bamboo shoot. My aunt was overjoyed: "Oh! This one is big! It hasn't been unearthed yet, so it must be tender!"

"Let's go back to the salad - oh, this one is a bit old, but it's okay. Break it off more and go stew the duck. The old duck in the vegetable market has become cheaper recently."

She muttered while digging, and every dish seemed to be close at hand. Song Tan finally couldn't bear it anymore: "Auntie, why are you so good at eating?"

My aunt burst out laughing: "Because of the chef I just mentioned, you have to call me Seventh Cousin! When I was a kid, he cooked banquets in our village. I followed him around, and I learned a little bit from him."

All right.

Seventh cousin.

Not to mention that Song Tan traveled through time for more than a hundred years before coming back. Even if she hadn't traveled through time, she couldn't tell the difference at all.

There are really too many relatives.

Fortunately, my aunt finally changed the topic from food to people——

"Your seventh cousin, judging by the talk of young people like you nowadays, it's so delicious that you can even speculate on the soles of your shoes."

"I heard that when the brigade was still a collective canteen, the villagers said that the brigade leader wouldn't ask him to cook - just because his cooking was so delicious, everyone didn't have enough to eat, and the planned food was not enough."

Oops!

Then Song Tan was really in awe.

Why don’t the older generation like to eat wild vegetables? Because in their memory, wild vegetables are boiled in water, and a drop of oil in a pot is a luxury.

In those days, who could make delicious boiled wild vegetables?

But according to my aunt, this seventh cousin can do it!

That is truly remarkable.

Song Tan couldn't help but be moved.

Because she took the time to take stock of the next tasks——

Peach trees should be planted on the mountain.

After plowing several fields, it is also necessary to spread seeds and transplant seedlings.

The rice fields need to be filled with water and then plowed to prepare for transplanting.

In the middle, you have to feed pigs, chickens, ducks and dogs.

Tea leaves will continue to be picked.

It is possible to cooperate with the spiritual energy formation, but because of her current lack of ability, and it cannot be too contrary to reality, she must do appropriate weeding and insect removal work.

Is this the end?

No, after this round of work is over, the peach blossoms are about to bloom, and the pak choi and other early-maturing vegetables in the field should also be cleared away. Then it is time to plow and plant other things, and Song Tan has to be responsible for selling vegetables...

Calculated in this way, for a long time, the family has been in this state of constantly inviting people over. However, the food at home tastes so good that everyone’s appetite has doubled or tripled.

Meals for a dozen or so people must be prepared for twenty or thirty people.

Wulan is at home now. Even though she only has one meal at noon, she has to start cleaning up in the morning and is also responsible for washing pots and dishes at noon. That means she is stuck on the stove every day!

Song Tan has long wanted to find someone to share the burden.

She and Qiaoqiao have to dig holes and dig soil in the mountains every day, and clean up the corners and corners that the machine cannot reach... No one in the whole family is idle at the moment.

Didn’t you see that Zhang Yanping was driven to the mountain to train?

Because of this, it was really hard not to be moved by Song Tan when her aunt praised her chef so highly.

"Auntie, what is the seventh cousin doing now? Are you still taking over the banquet?"

The aunt's brows and eyes drooped again: "In the community opposite me, there is a new building, and the house price has now risen to 8,500!"

That's what I said, but my aunt didn't look very happy.

"Your seventh cousin is really awesome. When he was young, he took the money and secretly bought a house in the city. However, when the area was demolished, he didn't ask for the money and only wanted the house."

"Originally, it was prepared for my son, but as a result, my son went to XJ at a young age and even started a family there."

"Your seventh cousin is getting old. He thought that his son would not be able to take care of him in old age in the future, so he took on an apprentice and taught him his craft, but he had to be responsible for taking care of him until he died."

It turned out that the apprentice was also a white-eyed wolf. If he thought he had learned it, he would just throw it away and go to a big coastal city.

The aunt groaned angrily: "At that time, the family couldn't support them. Where are the four sons? The half-grown boy graduated from junior high school and was as thin as a skeleton. Your seventh cousin took him with him and taught and fed him.

I was fed him something to drink, and later I was given arrangements to take the high school entrance examination."

"When that family brought me here, they kowtowed to your cousin with tears in their eyes and said they would serve him forever."

"At the end of the day, the family packed up the baggage and ran away. The family also said that your seventh cousin is good at picking up bargains and making money. His son has been with you for five years and he hasn't received a penny..."

"I bother!"

Song Tan was speechless.

Honest people have their own sorrows, but black-hearted people have their own freedoms.

She could only comfort her: "It's okay, auntie, think on the bright side. My seventh cousin is now living in the city. He has no worries about food and clothing. He has no worries about life and is quite comfortable."

The aunt sighed again: "There are good things in the city, and it is convenient to go to the hospital. But your seventh cousin and his wife are not feeling comfortable... You also know that in the new community, the property management is good, and you are not allowed to open vegetables in the community.

land."

"Last time during the inspection, we pulled out all the cabbages that your seventh cousin had planted in the cracks of the bricks... Your seventh cousin is very sad. He walks around the community every day and has nothing to do. He buys vegetables and meat and is very selective. He said

It doesn’t even taste good to eat anymore.”

Can vegetables be grown in the gaps between floor tiles?

What kind of master is that? Song Tan was amazed.

"Then...sell a new house and buy one with a yard?"

The aunt glanced at her and said, "Your seventh cousin is already sixty-seven this year. Do you think he can do things at a young age like you? I guess they want to go back to the village to live, but they are afraid that no one will send them there if they have a headache or fever."

The hospital...is suffering."

When the aunt said this, her heart moved: "Tan Tan, you can't farm for the rest of your life at home, right? Otherwise, you can go home and discuss with your parents to take over the seventh cousin as a chef."

"Seventh cousin is in good health, so you can let him be the chef."

"If your health is not good, you can drive them to see her. Don't worry, you won't have to spend any money. The couple has savings."

"When the time comes, you will take good care of the seventh cousin and his wife and provide for them until they die. They secretly said that when they can no longer walk, they will find someone to take care of them. The house will be given to whoever can take care of it well."

My aunt's heart gets hot when she thinks about the house. If it wasn't her niece, she wouldn't have said it:

"Just say, how wonderful it is to get a big house for free! You can choose whatever you want when you get married in the future!"
