Chapter 179 Division of labor and cooperation to build a home
There were no tables or stools for everyone to eat.
But this can't stop everyone from craving for breakfast today.
At this time, the valley was filled with the rich aroma of fish and the aroma of cornmeal for cornmeal potstickers.
Then Xue Nizi shouted.
"It's time to eat~~"
Everyone stood up, brushed off the dust on their bodies, and went to the riverside by the reeds to wash their hands and faces.
Then, he walked towards the woods where the big iron pot was set up.
At this time, Li Lanzhen really wanted to take out the long table in her home so that the younger children could sit and eat.
Because she knew that the fish soup was very hot, and she was afraid that the child would be anxious and not be able to put it in his mouth for a while, nor would it be convenient for him to hold the bowl.
But after thinking about it, she decided not to move.
Wait until she cleans herself up and goes over.
I saw that the basket was put to great use, and the things in the basket were all gathered together and placed aside.
Then, all the baskets were turned upside down, and the children sat in the back, some sitting on a tree stump, and some made a stone.
After settling the children down, the others took their bowls and sat on the ground to eat.
Lihua squatted beside the tofu pudding, carefully removed the fish bones, scooped up a spoonful of soup with fish meat, blew on it, and fed it into her mouth.
The little girl ate happily, squinting her eyes with a look of satisfaction on her face.
They had just taken two bites when Sanwang came over with his bowl.
He said to Lihua expressionlessly.
"You go eat yours, I'll feed the tofu pudding."
Lihua looked at Sanwang and then at Douhua.
Ask her, "Douhua, do you want Brother Sanwang to feed you, or Sister Lihua to feed you?"
Douhua puffed out his cheeks and looked at Sanwang, then at Lihua.
Sanwang's nervous hands tightly grasped the bowl he was holding, his eyes fixed on the tofu pudding.
Douhua swallowed the fish in his mouth and said to Lihua.
"Thank you, sister. I'm going to eat. Let Sanwang feed me some tofu."
Sanwang's tense face immediately relaxed and he said to Douhua with a smile.
"Okay! Brother will feed you."
Lihua was not disappointed. She picked up her bowl with a smile and sat down to eat.
Li Lanzhen felt very strange when watching this scene.
Douhua is a child who came from the land temple in Youzhou City with Lihua and Shitou.
Sanwang is a child from Lishu Village.
How come the two people met for the first time in the ancestral hall of Lishu Village?
He takes great care of Douhua. Is it because he was angry and wanted to cry, and Douhua went up to comfort him?
The world of children is really simple. Whether they like something or not, whether they are happy or not, it is just a matter of a moment.
Li Lanzhen no longer cared about what happened between the children.
Unless there is a big conflict that comes to her, let her solve it.
On the other side, Yan Ming and Shitou were also patiently feeding fish soup to Datou.
He fed him the fish meat with the bones removed, one bite at a time, and from time to time I scooped a spoonful of fish soup and fed it into his mouth.
Big Head's mouth was full of grease and he was so happy.
Miaomiao and Linglong sat on Han Mingyue's left and right.
She also carefully removed the fish bones for them, for fear that they would get the bones stuck in their throats.
The women in each family would first remove the fish bones from the children's bowls, soak some corn cakes in them, and then let the children eat slowly.
This meal is satisfying for both adults and children!
After eating, he took his clean bowl to the river beside the reed marsh to wash it.
"It's so nice here! It's a great honor for our family to follow Lan Zhen!"
"Who said it wasn't! My father-in-law doesn't want us to follow Sister Lan Zhen. I'm determined to come, and fortunately my man must follow Sister Lan Zhen too."
This is Han Zhaoxiong's wife and Han Youliang's wife washing dishes and happily talking about their feelings about coming here.
Xiao Liuzi was the happiest. Today was the day he and his mother had eaten the fullest and had the best meal since they were young.
At this time, the mother and daughter washed their bowls, sat by the river, and talked leisurely.
No need to worry about not having the next meal, no need to worry about someone bullying them...
Dong Huahua excitedly pulled her father's arm, pointed at the reed marsh and said, "Dad, look, there are wild ducks, wild duck eggs and fish in this reed marsh.
The land here is so good. If we cultivate it well and harvest the crops, we won’t be hungry anymore.
How nice it would be if grandparents and mother could come here with us!
Woo woo woo, Dad, I miss Mom."
Dong Changming's eyes were slightly red and he patted Dong Huahua's head.
"Huahua, don't cry. Your mother and your grandparents have gone to heaven. They are watching over us.
We live a good life, and Dad will watch Huahua find a good husband."
After hearing what her father said, Dong Huahua blushed and ran away with a stomp.
……
Li Lanzhen passively listened to the conversations of the people here.
Happy for everyone too.
Breakfast was late and dinner was early.
However, Han Shunde, who was out to inspect the construction of the house and yard, and Xue Lao Hu, who went up the mountain.
Neither of these two groups returned.
Li Lanzhen asked them to wait until they all came back before having dinner.
Zhang Deshui and his team have already planned a place to grow sweet potatoes, potatoes and vegetables.
We waited until the evening until Li Lanzhen said that she could deliver the farm tools, and we started to cultivate the land early the next morning.
Li Lanzhen has also found a place to rest for the next few nights.
It was in the woods where they were cooking.
The trees here are tall and have straight trunks.
About two meters high from the trunk, three or four branches grew out.
The most amazing thing is that these branches are all slanting sideways.
More branches and vines grew on the branches, making it impenetrable.
Li Lanzhen thought about building a tree house here to live in temporarily before the house and yard were built.
Thinking of this, she wondered how many of them there were in total.
She shouted when she saw Han Yinan by the river.
"Han Yinan, please count for grandma how many people are here.
Grandma has so many headaches that she can’t count them.”
Han Yinan immediately ran over and said, "Grandma, there's no need to count. Su Chen has already counted them."
Su Chen stood up and told Li Lanzhen with a smile.
“Grandma Lanzhen, there are 9 households and 54 people in total here.
Brother Shitou and Sister Shanxing are both considered part of our family."
Li Lanzhen patted his head and said lovingly and gently.
"Thank you, Su Chen."
She calculated in her mind that a mattress and a quilt would be more than enough for everyone, regardless of whether they were adults or children.
Then you need to prepare a thick straw mat.
She cast her eyes towards the reed marsh. Haha, the materials are ready. She can start taking action tomorrow!
