Fortunately, someone in the village raised chickens. If there was no other meat or vegetables, it would be better to kill one more chicken.
She killed two chickens at one time to entertain guests. It must be said that Su Xue was really unusually generous.
Su Xiaolong nodded, and Su Xue asked Su Xiaohu to go to He's house and ask the old lady to help dig some potatoes, and then asked them to come over for dinner in the afternoon. Two chickens for five or six people must be a bit much. Su Xue simply said
Make a big pot of potato stewed with chicken nuggets, and call the old lady and He Xiaojun...
Well, as for why it’s not called He Qingdong?
Is there any need to say this? He Qingdong, if he knew someone was coming to his family, he would definitely come over on his own.
Maybe the first thing you do when you come back from the city is to come to their house.
Sure enough, before Su Xue could finish her thoughts, He Qingdong came to the warehouse with his things. Just as Su Xiaolong came back with two chickens, He Qingdong raised his eyebrows slightly.
Su Xue glanced at him: "Is there time to help kill chickens?"
He Qingdong clicked his tongue, rolled up his sleeves and went to get the boiling water that Su Xue was boiling in the pot: "Little Moon told me to make time even if there is no time."
"It's good to be enlightened!"
Su Xue smiled and praised.
"Isn't that? Don't look at whose man it is."
"Stop being such a talker and work quickly, or you won't be allowed to eat at night." Su Xue pushed He Qingdong to work, and she went to work with a smile.
With He Qingdong helping, he quickly killed and disposed of the two chickens.
Before leaving, he helped Su Xue chop the chicken into the pieces Su Xue wanted. The two chickens were about nine pounds before they were killed, and they weighed seven or eight pounds after they were killed and processed.
Cut it into small pieces with a wooden basin in it.
Su Xue asked He Qingdong to come over for dinner after finishing his work, and then drove him away.
Su Xiaolong and Su Xiaohu peeled half a box of potatoes, and Su Xiaolong cut the potatoes into pieces slightly larger than the chicken, then put them aside, waiting for Su Xue to put them in the pot and cook them together.
Today I just had chicken stewed with potatoes, fried water spinach, tender pumpkin stewed with beans, and a tomato and egg soup. Considering that everyone could eat, Su Xue ate several kilograms of rice.
The dishes also come in two plates of each kind.
I'm afraid I won't have enough to eat.
When she was about to finish cooking, He Qingdong came again.
"Are you going to ask uncle and the others to come over for dinner?"
Su Xue stuck her head out from the kitchen and gave instructions.
He Qingdong was not treated as an outsider at all.
He Qingdong chuckled, picked up a piece of potato and put it in his mouth.
"My wife's cooking skills are getting better and better."
"What? Leave quickly." Su Xue glared at him to stop him from talking nonsense, fearing that his unbridled words would be heard by Su Xiaolong and Su Xiaohu. He Qingdong chuckled and left to find someone to eat.
went.
Not long after, He Xiaojun came over.
He came and helped me arrange the dishes and chopsticks obediently.
Su Xue was a little confused as to why she didn't see Mrs. He.
"Where's grandma?"
"Grandma went to the grocery store. She said we should eat and don't worry about her." When He Qingdong came back, he left here and went to the grocery store. The three of them sorted the goods together and quickly sorted the goods.
alright.
He Qingdong wrote down the prices of those items, so it was very convenient whether the old lady was selling them or others were buying them.
They haven't opened today yet and plan to open the day after tomorrow.
However, the old lady was afraid that with so many things left unattended, someone would take them away easily. So she insisted on guarding them there so that she could not come over to eat.
Su Xue nodded after listening.
"Okay, let's set the dishes first."
She would just go over and deliver the meal to the old lady.
Not long after, He Qingdong brought Su Dafang and the people who came to help Su Xue's house decorate the doors and windows. Su Xue and the others had also put the food on the table. When she saw He Qingdong coming, she took off her apron and faced him.
He said: "Just keep an eye on it. If you need anything, come to Xiaolong. I'll deliver food to grandma."
There were several grown men at home, and it was not easy for Su Xue to eat at the same table as them.
It doesn't matter that Bao'er is still a little girl, it won't be good when she becomes an adult.
Someone happened to be delivering food to the old lady, so she delivered it and took a look at He Qingdong's grocery store.
He Qingdong hummed.
"Go ahead, I'll save the chicken legs for you."
Su Xue laughed out loud. She was not a child, why should he leave chicken legs for her?
She picked up the basket with food and left the warehouse, heading to the new address of the primary school.
The new address of the primary school chosen by the village is near the place where Sun Lihong fell into the river last time. That side is considered the center of the entire village. In addition, Goda Village is also there, so the location of the primary school should be built in this place.
Couldn't be more appropriate.
He Qingdong's grocery store is just a few meters next to the school.
There was still a piece of red silk hanging on the closed door, which could not be torn off until tomorrow. When Su Xue came over with the food, Mrs. He was pulling weeds near the canteen.
"grandmother……"
Su Xue called her.
When the old lady saw Su Xue, she stood up in surprise.
"Xiaoxue, why are you here?"
"I'm bringing you food."
"Hey, I told you not to worry about me. Why did you come all the way to bring it to me?"
It takes a while to walk from here to the warehouse where Su Xue lives.
"It's just done, so I sent it to grandma while it's still hot."
"Well, you haven't eaten yet, right? Let's eat together."
Since the future granddaughter-in-law has brought food, the old lady can't keep refusing, so she lets Su Xue eat with her.
Su Xue brought a lot of food, and she didn't have a big appetite, so it was enough to eat together. She didn't put it down.
While they were eating, an uninvited guest (Su Baozhu.) was welcomed outside the closed door of the He family. She stared at the closed door in front of her, wondering why the He family was not at home at this time.
Did he go to the field and not come back yet?
Su Baozhu was puzzled.
"Who are you looking for?"
A familiar female voice sounded from the side. Su Baozhu raised his head and saw Sun Lihong, the fool from their village, standing not far away and staring at her. Su Baozhu smiled and pointed at the door of He's house.
"Fool, do you know where they went?"
As soon as Sun Lihong heard this, she turned around and left.
Su Baozhu:???
Does this fool still have a temper?
"Hey... Foolish Sun... Foolish Sun..." Su Baozhu chased after him in a few steps, but Sun Lihong ran faster and faster, and got into their yard in a few seconds.
Su Baozhu chased him to the entrance of the courtyard, but lost his pursuit.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Liu Chunhua's voice sounded behind him: "What's wrong with you kid? Who is chasing you?"
Liu Chunhua opened the door and saw Su Baozhu, who was beautifully dressed. She didn't recognize him for a while. "This comrade, who are you?"
Her reaction made Su Baozhu's vanity burst, thinking that her maintenance during this period was indeed effective. Look, even the women from the same village who had lived with her for more than ten years no longer recognized her.
She grabbed her braids and smiled.
"Aunt Chunhua? I am Baozhu."
"Su Baozhu?" Liu Chunhua looked at Su Baozhu in surprise, and opened her mouth faster than her brain: "Why have you become so dark? Isn't the soil and water in the city good for people? Why do you feel that you are uglier than before?
