Chapter 82 Enthusiasm

  Gu Laoer and Gu Laosan nodded in agreement quickly.

  They were also equally curious, where did the Zhao family get their contacts from? I haven't seen them on weekdays, how did I get contacts? How is it possible that Zhao Xiang brought it from the capital? The capital city is one hundred and eight thousand miles away from here, so it can't be controlled here at all.

  They wanted to find it, and they snatched it.

   They don't think they can't grab it. If it's really an extremely important connection, can the Zhao family not show it to deter them? Since they are hiding and covering their hands, isn't it because they are afraid of being robbed?

  Zhao Liya and the others naturally didn't know the Gu family's thoughts. After the matter of planting vegetables was confirmed, the whole village began to plow the ground and sow seeds vigorously.

   Instead of doing nothing during the slack season in previous years, the fields are full of heat.

  The wasteland in Zaihu Village was also completely reclaimed. Zhao Liya, Hu Ling, and Qu Yutao went to inspect and accept it together, and settled the wages to everyone by the way.

  The villagers lined up to receive the money, all beaming.

  At the beginning, everyone was afraid that they would be paid for their work, so they all settled every three days. Later, everyone thought it was such a trouble, so they all said that they should wait until the whole work was over before paying wages.

   Firstly, it saves trouble, and secondly, it seems more pleasing to receive so much at once!

  Everyone knows what kind of people the Zhao family is like, and the doubts in their hearts are dispelled. Naturally, they won't be staring at wages all the time like before.

   This is the big guy's recognition of her, and it really saves trouble. Zhao Liya is still a little moved in her heart.

   After seeing the new land reclaimed, they paid the big guys wages, and Li Zheng, the patriarch, and Uncle Ruan Gui rushed to invite the three of them to their house for dinner.

   "Let's go, go to my house, my kid went to the city this morning to buy meat and roast chicken, go to our house to eat!"

   "Go to our house, your aunt and sister-in-law have already killed the chicken and cooked the food, you can eat it when you go there!"

   "We have winter bamboo shoots at home. We dug them up yesterday afternoon. Stewed duck with winter bamboo shoots is rare. Let's come to my house!"

   "Isn't it my turn? Don't fight me!"

   "Oh, our food is hard to come by, let's go to your house next time!"

   "What's so rare? It's like who hasn't eaten winter bamboo shoots!"

"Go to my house!"

"my home!"

  “.”

  Qu Yutao covered her face and laughed, and couldn't help but glance at Zhao Liya, who was surrounded by the crowd and couldn't get away, feeling full of warmth and pride in her heart. If there is no cousin's family, how can they be where they are today? The cousin's family is their family's benefactors.

  Finally, an older elder patriarch of the Li family made the decision, everyone should bring all the good dishes from their own family, and go to Lizheng to eat at home! It's also good to get together by the way.

  Everyone thought it was a good idea, so they all agreed.

  Zhao Liya, Hu Ling, and Qu Yutao originally planned to go home for lunch at noon, but who knew that the meal at noon was not only eaten in Zaihu Village, but also lasted for almost three hours.

  Hu Ling was dragged to drink by a group of men waiting inside, while the aunts, aunts, sisters-in-law and girls accompanied Zhao Liya and Qu Yutao. After eating and chatting, time passed without knowing it.

  Hu Ling was forced to get a little drunk. Fortunately, everyone had a sense of proportion and didn't pour him too hard, otherwise he might not even be able to get up.

  Li Zheng's eldest grandson, Li Guangqing, drove the three of them back in an ox cart.

  Winter bamboo shoots, persimmons, pears, and big betel nut taro, you must not go back empty-handed.

The persimmons belonged to Uncle Ruan Gui’s family, and they were packed into a big basket. Aunt Ruan Gui also specially told, “This persimmon should be packed in jars or vats when you bring it home. The fruit of the old persimmon tree is sweet and sweet, better than other trees!"

  Zhao Liya agreed with a smile and thanked her repeatedly.

  Getting off the car at home, Li Guangqing quickly helped with the things, Zhao Liya hurried forward to work hard, and quickly took the rest of the things. For a moment, he was worried that Hu Ling would be dizzy and couldn't get out of the car, but he saw Qu Yutao supporting him.

  Zhao Liya was taken aback: Did she miss something extraordinary?

  Cooking her lips and chuckling, Zhao Liya turned her head back as if she didn't see her. Anyway, her cousin is now a good citizen. There is something really wrong with them, and the big guys are happy to see it.

  She doesn't have much impression of the original owners of Butler Hu and his wife. The only impression she has is that they are gentle and steady. Just like her father, they do things at a leisurely pace. If it really happens, they may not be unwilling to this marriage.

  However, she still took the time to mention something to her father, let his father ask Yi brother what he means, if he really likes it, they should quickly write to Uncle Hu and the others to clarify, ask for their opinions, and settle the matter.

  If Uncle Hu and the others disagree, the brother-in-law cannot be so ambiguous with his cousin, which is not appropriate.

  Zhao Xiang and the others heard that the person had come back, they hurriedly stepped forward to help, and took everything over while talking and laughing. Mrs. Deng hurried into the house, wrapped a packet of peanut and sesame candies for Li Guangqing, and said with a smile, "Take it back for the children to taste. It's not much, so don't be disgusted."

  Li Guangqing answered them politely, thanked them cheerfully, said goodbye to them, and left soon.

   There are more contacts, and there are more such exchanges, so everyone will not be too alienated.

  There are winter bamboo shoots, Zhao Liya can't help but want to kill chicken, fried chicken with winter bamboo shoots, made by Luo Shuyan's hands, it must be amazing, just thinking about it will make you hungry.

   Who knew that when I entered the kitchen, I saw, oh, there were two pheasants on the ground.

  Zhao Liya was overjoyed immediately: "Mother, let's have braised winter bamboo shoots with pheasant at night, okay?"

  Mr. Deng nodded: "Okay!" She gave her daughter a strange look, how could she be so happy? It was as if he hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

  After Li Guangqing left, Luo Shuyan showed up and said with a smile: "It's getting late, I'll pack up the chicken right now, this taro is also good, let's cook some betel nut taro by the way."

  Zhao Liya smiled and nodded: "Sister Shuyan can do what she says!"

   Deng laughed and joked: "That's not true, you can't do it even if you come here."

  Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, Zhao Liya looked around: "Where are Auntie and Aunt Eleven?"

  Deng sighed with a smile: "The two of them are on the addiction, and today they are preparing the land all day, preparing to grow vegetables."

  No one in the family will allow Mrs. Deng to work in the field, Luo Shuyan can't go out, and naturally Zhao Xiang can't work in the field alone with Widow Qu and Aunt Li Shiyi.

  Zhao Liya was also a little dumbfounded: "Didn't we say that when we go to Bajiaozhai tomorrow, we will all help to prepare the land? Why rush for a day or two!"

  Luo Shuyan smiled and said: "You don't understand that, if there is work to be done there, how can you resist it?"

  She glanced at Zhao Liya and Deng Shi, and said: "When you go to help, I want to go too."
