Road to Rebirth

Chapter 60 Lunch
Gu Rushan sat down on the ground with a plop, not even aware of the coolness of the dew seeping in from under his buttocks.

Li Qinghai's family over there has already started to work.

They are all familiar jobs.

The five people separated into five elements, the scythes in their hands were flying, and the piles of wheat around them were piled up.

They are all good hands in the field.

There is no need to ask for anything, and they are all familiar hands who can get started automatically as soon as they go.

Li Weimin, Li Weiqiang and the two sons in the family are all able to work in the field, and this kind of work is really difficult for them.

Many villagers who were harvesting wheat in the fields over there saw this scene, and people talked about it a lot. After all, the Li family harvested wheat for their daughter, so no one could say anything.

Apart from envy and jealousy, I really have nothing to say.

I can only guess in my mind why Li Xuemei and Gu Ruhai went there, not to mention that such a big family of five is busy working in Gu Ruhai's field, but Gu Ruhai doesn't even show up, which inevitably makes everyone guess.

Gu Xiaoqing at home cooks lunch at home. Last night, Li Xuemei and Gu Ruhai said that they would go back to grandma’s house when they came back this afternoon. When the time comes, let the aunts come over tomorrow. Gu Xiaoqing thought that one day would be enough for the aunts to learn how to eat. One or two strokes of eating skills.

Then the rest is not what Gu Xiaoqing cares about.

The uncles are much more flexible and thoughtful than Li Xuemei and Gu Ruhai, at least I am not worried about the problem of opening a business.

This food business focuses on the authenticity of a taste, as long as it is delicious and the ingredients are clean, I believe no one will not like to buy it.

Gu Xiaoqing filled a jar of boiled water in an earthen jar, and added some white sugar to it, which Gu Xiaoqing bought from a small shop in the village.

The boiled water is also cooled.

A stack of large bowls and a jar of water were packed in a basket, and Gu Xiaoqing sent them to the ground.

Because they go to the field early, farmers usually go to the field at five o'clock in the morning, so after working for a while, it is only nine o'clock when Gu Xiaoqing delivers the water.

After greeting the villagers in the surrounding fields, Gu Xiaoqing came to the field, and greeted Li Qinghai and the others from a distance: "Grandpa, uncle, brother, brother Jianguo, brother Jianhui, come drink some water and take a rest."

Li Qinghai straightened his waist, and immediately smiled. This niece and granddaughter are very likable.

The whole family went to the ground, found a place under the shade of a tree, sat down, their feet were covered with mud.

Gu Xiaoqing opened the bowl and poured five bowls of water.

Pass it to everyone one by one.

Li Qinghai took a big sip and narrowed his eyes, "This is still sugar water."

Li Weimin and the others followed suit and took a sip, it was really sweet.

Gu Xiaoqing smiled and watched grandpa and the others drink sweetly. This is the greatest sincerity they can show now.

Gu Xiaojie also followed, squatting beside Li Qinghai now, taking a sip of sugar water from time to time, who made his second sister ignore him.

Looking at the two children, Li Qinghai felt very at ease. He knew the life of his daughter, and this time he brought his whole family to help. The old man is playing tricks.

And Gu Ruhai's amazing move left a deep impression on Li Weimin, so he went back to teach Li Qinghai a lesson.

Li Qinghai knew that Gu Ruhai had changed, no matter what the cause of the change was, it was a good thing.

After all, Xuemei's life with Gu Ruhai has always been harder than that of Huanglian. If a man can't afford it, what can a woman do.

In the past, Li Qinghai always thought that Gu Ruhai's ears were weak, his waist was bent, he was not a man, and he cried for his daughter and three grandchildren.

But this time, when he heard his son say this, he was certain in his heart. He wanted to take a look at him at first, and he also heard that Gu Ruhai's business was doing well. Ten yuan a day, that's not uncommon.

So I thought that I should help Gu Ruhai and the others, anyway, I couldn't avoid harvesting the wheat, my family had a lot of labor, and it only took two days to help Gu Ruhai finish harvesting.

It also saves Gu Ruhai and Li Xuemei to delay the business.

So the whole family came.

The most important thing is that Li Weimin wanted to come here a long time ago, but his niece agreed to find a way for him to start a business, not for greed, but Li Weimin also wanted to improve the conditions of his family. ample.

There are two half-children who are about to get married in the family, so Li Weimin, a father, can't be in a hurry.

Even Li Qinghai was secretly anxious. He originally planned to discuss with the captain in Qiuli today, and contract a few more acres of land, so that he could have a better harvest and an extra income in the coming year.

But after hearing what Li Weimin said, Li Qinghai was also a little moved, but Li Qinghai didn't dare to take Gu Xiaoqing, who was only 12 years old, seriously, but Li Qinghai was well aware of his daughter's craftsmanship.

If you talk about family secrets, they are all fooling outsiders.

Li Qinghai still doesn't know what his family is like.

Hearing that it was made by his niece and granddaughter, Li Qinghai really believed it. After all, Gu Xiaoqing's performance at their house last time was really amazing.

This time it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

Several people finished drinking the water, took a short rest, and went down to the ground again.

Gu Xiaoqing also packed up the bowls and jars, and led Gu Xiaojie home to make lunch.

By the way, I cut two catties of meat at Feng Butcher.

After returning home, he sent Gu Xiaojie to play in the yard.

Gu Xiaoqing hurriedly started cooking.

Go to the field early in the morning, and people eat early, so the noon meal should be earlier, otherwise the people who go to the field will not be able to withstand it.

It was still steamed buns mixed with cornmeal and white flour, and steamed two large baskets in one go. The main reason is that today's people are all big men, and five men must have a big appetite.

Pulled two cabbages from the ground, and sent Xiaojie to put soybeans in a basket to the tofu shop for two catties of tofu.

Gu Xiaoqing's plan is to make stewed noodles with pork belly, cabbage and tofu at noon, a pot of corn paste, and steamed buns with corn flour, which is very rich.

This meal is one of the best in the village.

The only fly in the ointment is that the steamed buns are not white flour.

As soon as the food here was on the table, the courtyard door rang, and Li Qinghai and his family of five walked in.

While bringing out a large plate of steamed buns from the kitchen, Gu Xiaoqing said to Li Qinghai, "Grandpa, I've already filled that basin for you, and it's been drying for a long time. You can eat after washing."

On one side, he put down the basin and went to hold the corn mush.
