Chapter 356 Invite to dinner
Huang Guihua asked: "Are you all planning to plant it?"
He Yuxiang shook her head: "My family has five acres of land. My parents-in-law can't work hard, and my three children can't help much. It's busy enough. I don't want to farm."
Her mother-in-law Ma Shuangping echoed, "That's what I mean, too. My son doesn't come home often, and Yuxiang is the only one left at home. She's very tired."
"My family wants to plant three mu of land." Xie Fenglian said, "My family only has three mu of land. My two grandsons have big appetites. The grain harvest at home is too little. If we plant three more plots, we can sell more for more money."
Qian Hongjuan opened her mouth but didn't say anything.
Huang Guihua smiled and said, "We also plant three acres of land to save more money so that we can find a wife for our grandson."
Shen Ping, Lan Qiuhua, Zhang Qiu'e, Miao Zhaodi, and Niu Guilan each planted one acre of land.
The rest said they didn't want to plant, but later they went home to discuss and decided to plant one acre.
Only He Yuxiang and her family didn't plant it.
"Wen He, why don't you plant a few more plots?"
Ji Wenhe smiled and said, "Aunt He's family doesn't grow any either."
"My parents-in-law are not in good health, and I am busy taking care of the five acres of land at home. When the three children are grown up, I plan to buy a few more plots of land."
"We don't have extra money to buy land. The two Wenshan brothers haven't gotten married yet, and we have to raise pigs and sell them. Let's talk about it later."
She nodded in agreement: "Yes, shall we treat the villagers to a meal tomorrow?"
"Yes, I'll ask Yuanshan to go to each household and tell them that Aunt He will come tomorrow."
"I won't come. Let mother-in-law come. Father-in-law has to be busy at home. I'm going to weed the fields. You are busy. I'm leaving now."
"it is good."
Ji Wenhe was waiting for Shen Rongshan on the road to go home together.
The twins were breaking boxes in the yard.
Shen Yuanshan asked, "Brother, what did the village head ask you to do?"
"The village head has divided the land for cultivation, leaving only three acres for our family. Do you want to plant two more plots of land?"
"I just heard An Guo say that he wants to collect half of the money from selling the grain. He doesn't want to plant more because he is too busy." Shen Wenshan said.
He also wants to learn how to make cabinets from his master.
Ji Wenhe sat down in front of the basket, picked up a corn, and continued to peel the kernels: "Your elder brother and I don't plan to plant. Two acres and seven mu of land is enough for the two of us to be busy."
"When you get married, ask your wife. If you want to plant, go find the village head. Your eldest brother and I will think about it in two years."
Let’s wait until next year to sell the pigs and then we can discuss it.
Shen Rongshan sat down opposite her: "The head of the village still has a lot of land that has not been distributed. He just told me that if I want to plant it, I will go find him."
Shen Yuanshan raised his head and said, "Brother, let's wait and see next year. There's no rush."
"Yes." He nodded, "Yuanshan, don't go out to sell goods tomorrow. Eat at home and stay at the foot of the mountain at night. Don't go back to the cave."
"My sister-in-law has told us about it, and the house has been cleaned up, but I'm still a little uncomfortable living alone in the future."
He and Shen Wenshan are twins, born only a few breaths apart. They have lived together since childhood and have never even slept apart.
Ji Wenhe smiled and said, "Then you have to get used to it in advance. You won't feel lonely when you get married. Anyway, we live close to each other."
"Next spring, I'll arrange a matchmaking for the two of you. If it works out, we'll see if you can get married on the same day, so you can have double happiness."
Shen Rongshan took over the conversation: "Not necessarily, the date must be determined based on the horoscope."
"Hey, when girls in our village get married, some have a suitable date, and some don't. It seems that Shen Ruoyan didn't have a suitable date."
I just picked a good day, a good day for getting married.
However, Shen Ruoyan's situation was somewhat special, because her previous fiancé, Wu Caifeng and his wife, wanted to marry her off early for fear of further accidents.
Shen Yuanshan whispered, "Sister Ruoyan hasn't been back for a long time, right?"
Ji Wenhe nodded: "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. They will definitely come back for their full moon party."
"I saw her husband in town."
The three of them looked at Shen Rongshan, and he spoke again.
"Two people went to town to buy meat. They met at the meat market. It happened two or three months ago."
The two of them chatted and laughed. She was doing well, which could be seen from her complexion.
"By the way, Brother Shen, Aunt Lan and Aunt Miao said they would come over to help tomorrow. I thought we shouldn't let them come over. The four of us will be busy quickly."
"Okay, Yuanshan, go tell each family, and ask Aunt Miao and Aunt Lan not to come over to help tomorrow, and ask them to come over for dinner together."
"Okay, I'll go now." Shen Yuanshan put down the wooden board in his hand and walked straight out the door.
Shen Rongshan looked at her and said, "Wen He, I'll go see Master later and ask him to come over for dinner tomorrow."
"Then wait until dinner is delivered before going. Otherwise, you will have to make another trip to ask the doctor to take the pulse. I guess he definitely didn't do it himself."
That's exactly what he was thinking, so let him move in.
Seeing that it was time to cook dinner, I stood up and said, "I'll go back to cook and call you guys later."
Ji Wenhe nodded.
Looking at the finished house, I feel indescribable satisfaction.
There is only one bed in the bedroom. There is a wooden box at the end of the bed, and two thick quilts on top of the box. Things for the house need to be added slowly.
It looked empty from the outside, not to mention the other rooms, there were no tables or benches.
"Wenshan, pack the two boxes that Aunt Li wants, and make two small square tables, one for the kitchen and one for the living room."
"Got it, sister-in-law. Do you want to make the table bigger?"
"It's like the table in the cave. It's too big and takes up too much space. Two small ones can be put together and used."
"Okay." Shen Wenshan responded.
Early the next morning.
The four of them went down the mountain and each was busy with their own things.
Shen Rongshan went to the next village to borrow two large tables.
Shen Yuanshan came back with two winter melons in his arms: "Sister-in-law, are two winter melons enough?"
"That's enough. Cut one first. If it's not enough, cut the other one."
Ji Wenhe poured the bones into the big pot and put the winter melon in to cook later.
Shen Wenshan sliced the meat: "Sister-in-law, fry a few eggs."
"Take out six, wash two heads of cabbage, and make some vegetable cakes."
There are six dishes on one table and two tables of people.
Shen Rongshan borrowed two tables and placed them outside the yard. He walked into the house and asked, "Wen He, can you cook? I'll light the fire."
Ji Wenhe came out from behind the stove and said, "Wait a moment. It's a little early to cook now. Chop the wild vegetables and make them into pancakes later."
"By the way, cut half of the fat pork into marinade, and the fat residue can be used to make a dish."
He nodded, took out his newly bought kitchen knife, chopped up the wild vegetables and put them into the basin, then scooped in the black flour and mixed them.
Zhao Xiaoxi went to the pigpen to take a look and passed by their house. He wanted to go in and take a look, but he saw Su Xiaolian in the yard and walked over.
"Xiaoxi, would you like to go to your sister-in-law's house for lunch at noon?"
"Well, mom asked me to go, what about you?"
"I'll go to our house too. We'll go together later. Yujiao has to recuperate after giving birth so she can't come."
Amelia Su asked: “Xiaoxi, what did your family send?”
