Chen Miao helped Chen He so much because she fell in love with this eldest sister at first sight, and she was not an annoying person after getting along with her.
Whether it's the people who are helping or the majority of those who are being helped, it's because of their mood. People who look pleasing to the eye will want to help.
"Zhong, let me help you." Originally, I was borrowing food, but I didn't expect that there would be a way to make life better.
Chen He watched from the side. He had done it before and was now familiar with it.
Tofu is a plate. There are many people who want to change it to tofu.
Chen He heard a knock on the door and asked, it was the man Liu Laifu.
There is no work anymore. Chen Miao also knows what the elder sister is here for. Without any nonsense, she gives them two bags of cornmeal and one bag of sorghum rice.
"Third girl, if you don't want to sell tofu, I'll lend you your stone mill first."
"Okay. You can get it back by yourself. Sister, you must keep the millstone clean."
Chen He nodded, he was always a neat person.
Liu Laifu listened, feeling a little hot in his heart. As long as he worked hard in the future, he would be able to get better. The third sister-in-law was really helping their family.
After pushing away the grain, a family came over for the second time, and the stone mill was still very heavy.
"Who are you from Xiaofeng's family?"
"Fifth Aunt, I can't do it myself. My eldest sister's family sells tofu. If you want tofu brain tofu from now on, I will go to her house."
Although she is called Fifth Aunt, she is still quite young. Chen He really doesn’t recognize her, but she still calls her Fifth Aunt.
"Zhong, you can do this. Do you want my little pig?"
"Yes, of course I want it, but I still want both ends."
Chen He is also very jealous. The family has no money to raise pigs, so this year all the tofu scraps will be sent to Sanmei.
All the tofu noodles were taken away throughout the morning, and there was not much tofu left.
Niang San had tofu curd for lunch, and Chen Miao used diced pork to marinate it. It tasted really good.
In the afternoon, Zhao Xiaoyun brought his two children over to play. "You still really take care of your eldest sister's family."
"You know everything?"
"I think the whole village knows."
"I make tofu three days, fish and dry the nets two days. After spring, I don't have any time at all. My eldest sister is a nice person, and besides, I really can't just watch them live a miserable life, right?"
"You? By the way. You can ask your eldest brother-in-law to go to my father-in-law. They have divided the food and there are still five bags of food left. Even if you don't ask, you won't suffer, right?"
"It's true, just ask."
Zhao Xiaoyun was watching the children playing under the big willow tree, and then she went to Liu's house.
"Can you win?" Liu Laifu asked in disbelief.
"Don't you know if you try it? It's better if you give it, and nothing will be lost if you don't give it. But you must be kind to the people in the village in the future." I hope they are grateful.
Liu Laifu nodded excitedly, "I know that our family is very grateful to be able to give our family a place to live."
After Chen Miao left, they still had to go and find the village chief about this matter.
Chen He was also very excited. "Let's go, let's go there now."
"There is also such a good thing, your village is better than our village."
"I'm thinking it would be better to ask dad to go with me."
When he arrived at his parents' house, Chen Dongsheng couldn't stop himself and ordered Chen Tong to do carpentry work. He just thought that if he had a craft, he would be able to make a living.
This was making wooden barrels for Chen Miao, so Chen Tong was not unwilling to do it. If the third sister had delicious food, she could still give it to him. In his eyes, the third sister was the best person.
"Why are you here?"
"Dad, just now the third girl told me to go to the village chief and said that there is still some food. Ask if you can give us some."
Chen Dongsheng stood up and said, "Let's go and ask. It's better if you give. It's normal if you don't."
Liu Laifu nodded, "Dad, I know."
The three of them went out, and Chen He whispered about making tofu.
"That's okay, you can still make money by giving it to Lao San."
"Dad, the third girl is still nice to me."
Chen Dongsheng nodded, the third daughter is indeed different, not the three brothers, but her relationship with the fourth brother is okay. The fifth brother is not far or close, maybe she is not married, so she is better than the other brothers.
"Work hard and you'll be able to recover in two years."
Chen He nodded excitedly, "If it weren't for my mother's family, the five of us wouldn't be where we are."
Chen Dongsheng did not follow the eldest daughter's words. After all, the son-in-law also wanted to save face, so they just knew that.
Shen Wufu looked at the three people who came in and smiled, "Hurry up and sit down. Brother, do you want some water?"
"If you don't want to drink, don't bother. Lao Wu, I came here to ask you if I can share the food with you."
"I told Master Qi about this matter. What the old man meant was to give it to them if they came to look for it. Just like the people in the village, it would be fine if they didn't come to look for it."
Chen He and his wife both had smiles on their faces. "Thank you, Uncle Wu. This way we can borrow less food."
Shen Wufu nodded, "That means my niece-in-law can lend you food. Xiaofeng is not at home, so you can help her more in the future."
Let's go, I'll weigh the grain for you. I have a cart at home." There is no place for the village chief's office yet, it's all in his home.
"Uncle Wu, I'm really troubling you."
The three men pushed a bag of sorghum and two bags of corn kernels away.
Shen Wufu entered the house, "Master, why do you want to share food with Chen He and his family?"
"Selling a favor from the Xiaofeng family."
Xiuyue also nodded. It is true that this niece-in-law is a good person. She is a sensible person and must know the reason why the head of the family does what he does.
"Do you really want her to go with you? She's just a little wife."
"Master Qi also said to let her follow. I think she should also be allowed to follow us. Xiaofeng's wife is a capable person."
"Then she will definitely bring her two children."
"Take it with you."
"When are you leaving?"
"Leave sixteen. You can catch up on farming when you get back. Let Jianchun help her plow the land at home."
Xiuyue nodded, that's nothing. If you help her, she will return more.
Liang Caixia was very happy when she found out that food was also given to her eldest daughter. This made her life a lot easier.
Chen Miao felt very uncomfortable because there was no millstone at home. There was also sticky sorghum, and she was thinking of making some Yuanxiao to eat on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. She had to adapt to the occasion no matter what.
There are ready-made yuanxiao and glutinous rice balls in the space, but I still want to adapt to this place. It should also be delicious if I make them myself.
The next morning I carried half a bag of sticky sorghum to Shen Wufu's house. They also had millstones, and their own should be grinding soy milk. It was also troublesome to grind grain.
"What did you bring me this early in the morning?" Zhao Xiaoyun said with a smile.
"I'll give you sticky sorghum, and I'll make Lantern Festival later."
"My family also has sticky sorghum. By the way, do you know how to make Lantern Festival?"
