Chapter 44 Missing
Unexpectedly, everyone at the table seemed to have not heard it.

Ruan Zhonghua and Wang Jihong were guests, so they naturally didn't want to speak out. Su Qian and the others didn't have this awareness at all. They used to eat separately every day, so it was impossible to be polite to him now.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Niu Jianguo had no choice but to walk away embarrassingly.

On the side of the stove, Zhang Weidong was putting corn on the cob into the pot with a sullen face, when Niu Jianguo leaned over, "Is this for lunch?"

Zhang Weidong put the lid on the pot, and said angrily, "I want to eat delicacies from mountains and seas, but it's a pity we don't have that life!" After he finished speaking, he rushed out as if angry with someone.

Niu Jianguo glanced at Su Xi's dining table, licked his lips and left.

Chen Jun squatted on the ground to light the fire.

He is not very skilled in cooking now, but he is good at lighting a fire.

When the fire arose, he also returned to the house.

When I went in, I saw Zhang Weidong lying on the bed, and Niu Jianguo sitting beside the bed in a daze.

Chen Jun went in and smiled, "Brother Zhang, why do I think you're not happy?"

Zhang Weidong lay on the bed and let out a heck, "We see people eating meat every day, and we don't even have to drink soup. Who can be happy?"

Niu Jianguo nodded vigorously. After three years of devolution, he had already adapted to the hard life in the countryside. When the new educated youths came, they often eat delicious food and drink spicy food. Only after comparing them did they realize how miserable their life was. Everyone would be jealous .

Chen Jun rolled his eyes, "Tell me, is their meat coming from a wrong path?"

"I don't believe that wild birds can be picked up on the road."

Zhang Weidong rolled his eyes, "Is this nonsense? It must have come from a wrong path, even if you have meat tickets, you can't buy wild birds!"

Chen Jun lowered his voice, "Then, can we report them?"

Zhang Weidong sat up from the bed, "Report ass, even if they asked someone to buy it, so what, buying things is not illegal, even if they are caught on the spot, it is usually just a few words of education!"

Chen Jun laughed awkwardly, "I thought it was speculative, hehehe..."

Niu Jianguo nodded. He was caught buying things on the black market before, and the seller was handcuffed away. He was educated and released.

He suddenly sized Chen Jun up and down, but he didn't expect this kid to be quite sinister, he wanted to report him when he saw him eating meat.

Although he is gluttonous and jealous, but he is not good enough to do such a thing.

Chen Jun was a little disappointed. Su Xi and Qiao Mu kicked him out of the educated youth group in the capital.

He kept thinking about finding opportunities to mess with them.

It's a pity that this matter can't do much.

After a while, Chen Jun went into the stove to watch the fire, and Su Xi and the others had almost eaten.

The pot of bird meat has bottomed out, the scrambled eggs are empty, and there are only a few vegetables left on the table.

Zhao Tingting and Su Qian cleaned up the dishes, Ruan Zhonghua looked at Su Xi, "I remember, there is a carpenter Zhou in your team, I will go to him to borrow some tools later, and try to build the chicken coop in the afternoon."

Su Qian said very sincerely: "How embarrassing, I invite you to come and play, not to work."

She paused, "Why don't you leave it alone, Qiao Mu is very good at making these, let him do it when he comes back, I bought poker, let's play cards for a few afternoons."

After all, the chick also has a share of Qiao Mu, which is his own business.

Ruan Zhonghua immediately asked, "Qiao Mu? Is that the thin, tall and handsome male educated youth?"

Susie nodded.

Ruan Zhonghua resolutely said: "Let me do it. I have done it before and have experience. I promise to fix it for you."

"By the way, who of you knows Carpenter Zhou's house, take me there."

Tian Xiaohui raised her hand, "I'll take you there."

Susie hurriedly shouted, "Wait a minute." She opened the cupboard, took out the washed apples, and gave one to each of them.

Tian Xiaohui held it in her hand, couldn't wait to take a bite, and said vaguely: "Oh, I haven't eaten it for a long time, it's so crispy and sweet."

Wang Jihong was a little surprised, "This apple is not cheap, is it?"

Ruan Zhonghua looked normal, took the apple and said to Susie, "Thank you."

The three went to Carpenter Zhou's house, and Su Qian and Zhao Tingting packed up the dishes and went out with apples.

Susie and Zhao Tingting were sitting at the door eating apples. Ruan Zhonghua and the others came back not long ago. Susie saw him holding a saw in his hand, and Wang Jihong was carrying a cardboard box full of nails.

Tian Xiaohui came over and whispered to Su Xi: "I gave Carpenter Zhou fifty cents to buy these nails and borrow his tools."

Susie thought for a while, the output of iron is not high these days, otherwise there would be no nationwide iron and steel production, and the iron nails should not be cheap, so the price is reasonable, so she nodded, "Let Tingting keep the accounts."

The two boys quickly got busy in the yard, and Susie and the others helped pass things by.

A few hours passed, and the chicken coop was gradually taking shape, and the sun was about to set.

Su Qian was handing nails to Ruan Zhonghua when Yuan Gang Qiaomu and Zhu Zhicheng came in at the courtyard gate.

Qiao Mu carried a snakeskin bag on his shoulder, Yuan Gang carried a bag in his hand, and Zhu Zhicheng also carried a net bag.

Seeing Ruan Zhonghua, Qiao Mu paused.

Tian Xiaohui just came out of the stove, looked at the bag on his shoulder, "Qiao Mu, what did you buy?"

Qiao Mu said in a muffled voice, "Rice."

He paused, "Aren't you not used to eating sweet potato rice? From now on, you female educated youths will eat rice, and Yuan Gang and I will eat sweet potato rice."

Tian Xiaohui's eyes widened, "You bought this with your own money? No way? You are too kind."

"I was talking about the sweet potato rice until I felt like throwing up, but I didn't dare to buy it when I saw the rice."

Qiao Mu stopped in his tracks, "Put the rice in your house."

Tian Xiaohui stopped asking, and walked over to open the door giggling, watching Qiao Mu put the sack into the room.

Qiao Mu came out of the house, strode to the chicken coop, took the nail from Susie's hand, "I'll help."

Susie stood up, "Then I'll go to the kitchen to see if the meal is ready."

Chicken was stewed on the kerosene stove in the kitchen, and the aroma was tangy, and the table was set. Susie looked at it, "Ah, there is a lack of chairs."

Qiao Mu has been talking about making some bamboo chairs, but he just made the Shau Kei basket first, and the chairs have not had time to make.

Tian Xiaohui turned around and walked out, "I'll borrow it from Aunt Lan's house."

After a while, Liu Zi came over with three chairs, and Tian Xiaohui followed behind him with a relaxed expression.

Susie greeted the six sons, "There are good dishes today, so let's stay here for dinner."

The six sons smiled and shook their heads, "No, master and wife are waiting for me to eat."

Qiao Mu by the chicken coop looked up at him, then lowered his head and continued to work.

In the kitchen, the chairs were neatly arranged. Watching Zhao Tingting fry the last vegetable, Su Qian stood at the door of the kitchen and shouted, "It's time to eat."

Ruan Zhonghua replied, "One last time, it will be ready soon."

He nailed the last nail, stretched out his hand and shook it, it was quite solid, and then took a few steps away to look, it was not bad, it looked like that.

Susie fetched a basin of water and put it outside, and several people washed their hands before going inside to eat.

Qiao Mu took the lunch box and was just about to serve it, when Zhao Tingting said, "The wild bird meat for lunch, you and Yuan Gang didn't come back, so Qianqian left some for you in your lunch box, take it out, and I'll heat it up."

When Qiao Mu opened the lunch box, Susie just glanced down, and then her face changed.

I saw that there was only a little oil left in the lunch box except for a few garlic leaves, and half of the box of bird meat was gone.
