Chapter 448 The Real City Boy

Chapter 448 the real city boy

"Wow, there are so many guests at home." Following Li Haitang to the door, Zheng Mingfeng was frightened by the situation in the hall.

Li Fugui introduced them: "They are all neighbors of Lee ka tsuen, and also relatives and elders with close ties. Every time Jianping comes back for the new year, the villagers like to come here to play."

Li Jianping, who had been talking to the villagers, saw that the whole family had arrived and quickly got up to greet them, ordering the younger generation to make tea.

The Li Xiaolin and Li Xiaoyu brothers had returned quite a few times over the years. They held cigarettes to salute the elders, led their wives and children to greet them, and Zheng Wentao and the Zheng Mingfeng brothers followed behind politely and politely.

"Uncle six, why is your son-in-law and granddaughter back, but xiaoqin didn't?" A woman in the crowd asked loudly.

Li Fugui, who had just sat down, replied, "Xiao qin is back too. Jian hong just called her at the door. The two of them are talking outside. They will come in later."

"Oh, I haven't seen her in over thirty years. It's rare for me to come back. I have to talk to her later." Said the other.

"Yes, it's not easy for her to come back. If you all come to our house tomorrow, we'll all have a good chat." Li Fugui warmly invited.

"Okay." The other party readily agreed.

After Li Haitang brought everyone tea, he took a bag of chocolates and beautifully packaged candies from the capital city, added some to the table, and distributed some to his uncle's children.

As soon as they were done, the commotion finally dragged a large dustpan out of the kitchen behind them. "Auntie, roasted sweet potatoes are ready. It smells good after roasting a big dustpan."

"Yes, it does smell good. It's very efficient and tiring." Li Haitang praised him and turned to Zheng Minglong and the others, "Do you want roasted sweet potatoes?"

Zheng Minglong craned his neck to take a look and said, "I haven't eaten. You can try."

"Not even roasted sweet potatoes, a real city boy." Li Tao casually took out two pieces of paper on the table, wrapped one of the largest and handed it to him, "It's not bad. It's pure natural and healthy. You two should share it."

"Sure."

Li Haitang shared the rest of the family, half of her children, and half of her and Jiang Chuheng's. The spacious living room soon smelled of sweet potatoes.

"Mom, it's so delicious. It smells so sweet. It's better than sweet potato porridge." Duoduo also likes to eat.

Li Haitang saw that her mouth was full of sweet potato paste. He took a tissue to wipe her mouth and said, "If you like it, I'll roast it for you tomorrow."

Li Jianhong and Li Xiaoqin found a place to talk outside, and they didn't talk alone for long. They only talked for about ten minutes before they came into the house.

Li Xiaoqin hadn't been back for many years, and many of the neighbors didn't know each other anymore. It was only through the introduction of his old parents that he could barely remember.

The villagers had a vague impression of her. They only remembered that she was pretty when she was a child, but now that she was in her fifties, her figure and face were well maintained, and she looked much younger than her peers.

Li Fugui and his group did not stay at home for long. They came to invite the four of Li Haitang's family to dinner. An' an and Duoduo liked to play with Zheng Mingfeng and immediately followed them home.

"Haha, mom, I see a lot of chickens, ducks and geese." As soon as he got to the door, Duoduo excitedly ran to the poultry pen surrounded by a fence.

As soon as she rushed over, all the chickens, ducks and geese in the pen were frightened and flew around. The geese were also screaming at her, and they all rushed towards her as if they were going to peck her.

"Duoduo, run away." Li Haitang immediately reminded her.

Duoduo reacted quickly. When the goose rushed towards her, it immediately turned around and ran away. After running to a safe distance, she pointed at them and complained, "Mom, I don't catch them. I just want to see them. Why did those geese peck me?"

"You rushed over so fast. They thought you were going to hurt them. If you want to see them up close, you have to walk over slowly and watch them quietly. Don't scare them out loud."

"Oh."

The children who grew up in the city had never seen so many chickens, ducks, and geese. They were so excited to see them.

"An' an, Duoduo, don't get too close, and don't go hunting geese. It hurts to peck people." Li Haitang warned and followed the others into the house to get a fire.

Li Fugui and his wife had lived in their hometown for more than half a year, not only raising poultry, but also raising two pigs. The fields at the front of their house had been turned into vegetable gardens, growing vegetables, and living a leisurely farm life.

Having the children drink tea and roast in the living room, Zhao Chunhua began to prepare dinner for the evening. She went to the garden to pick vegetables with her basket. Remembering something, she went to the living room door and asked, "Haitang, what fresh vegetables do you want to eat?"

Li Haitang stood up and smiled, "I'll go with you to the garden."

"Sure. Your grandfather and I grew a lot of vegetables at home, each with a small piece. Whatever you like to eat, we'll cook it tonight."

Zheng Mingfeng followed them closely and introduced her, "Sister, there is a kind of vegetable that is very delicious. We ate it this afternoon. I haven't eaten it in the capital or anywhere else."

"Hmm? What's your name?" Li Haitang asked.

"Granny said it's winter amaranth. I've never seen it before, and I've never eaten it before. It tastes great with some broth."

"Oh, winter amaranth. I haven't eaten it in years." Li Haitang almost forgot the taste of the dish, but he still remembered its appearance. Walking outside, he saw the two children still around the chicken coop and waved at them, "An' an, Duoduo, come here and play with mom in the garden. Mom will teach you how to recognize vegetables. Come back later to see the chickens, ducks and geese."

"Okay." The brother and sister rushed over immediately.

Mom, this is a carrot. I know it. And this one, the white radish."

"Mom, this is chinese cabbage. We ate it at home."

"I know this one too. It's cauliflower. Fried meat with cauliflower is the best. Dad loves this dish."

"Mom, what is this long-flowered dish?"

"Auntie, why do you only pick the leaves of this dish? Why not have a pole?"

..."

With the two of them by their side, it was as if they had two sparrows with them, and the three adults could not answer their questions as quickly as they could.

After picking a basket full of fresh vegetables, Li Haitang led the two children out of the garden. "All right, the vegetables for tonight are picked. Will you continue to see the chickens, ducks and geese, or go to the house to watch cartoons over the fire?"

"Watch cartoons." The siblings answered in unison.

"Sure. It's cold outside. Go and sit inside so you don't catch a cold." Li Haitang took them outside to clean the mud off his shoes before they went in together.
