Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the orchard, Lao Ding and the others took out the pancakes, boiled eggs and pickled vegetables they had brought with them, and prepared to roll them into pancakes to eat.

    A worker said: "Old Ding, you have made a lot of money. I bought so many saplings at once. You are really a generous boss."

    ¡°No way, but I have saved enough money to take my wife to look for a doctor abroad.¡±

    "That's right." The worker nodded and stopped talking.

    Xu Ze ran over and saw them rolling pancakes and said, "Uncle Ding, we have cooked food at home. Don't eat it here. Go home and eat it."

    Old Ding waved his hand: "No, we have brought them all. You can go back. We will start planting trees after eating."

    Xu Ze: "No, we've specially prepared a meal for you. If you don't come, it won't be easy for me to explain when I get back."

    Lao Ding and the others looked at each other, seemingly in disbelief.

    Usually when they work, they bring their own food, because basically no one takes care of the food. They are used to it, and they are happy to do it, just because they are afraid that eating will lead to other things.

    There have been a few times in the past where I was shortchanged by 500 yuan because of a meal.

    And there were other workers who got into a fight at the dinner table just because they were eating, and got beaten up and even went to jail.

    Old Ding could see that Jiang Tian would not be such a person, but he had to go out for something. What kind of food could he cook with just two children at home?

    Looking at Xu Ze¡¯s expression, Old Ding knew that if he didn¡¯t go, he would be disrespecting others and might even hurt their self-esteem. No matter what kind of meal the child prepared, they would go there.

    Thinking like this, Lao Ding said: "Okay, let's go there."

    Others looked at him as if they didn't quite understand what he was doing.

    But they all followed Lao Ding, so they must listen to what Lao Ding says.

    Xu Ze felt relieved now. He was really afraid that these people would not go.

    A large group of people came to the house.

    As soon as he entered the door, Lao Ding saw the tables placed in the yard and the abundant food on them.

    There are some dishes, some meat dishes, some big ones, and there are wine glasses next to them.

    ¡°At this moment, not only the workers, but also Lao Ding stopped.

    Old Ding looked surprised. He had never expected that two children would prepare such a sumptuous meal. He was really afraid to go there.

    The other workers looked at him, and a few even whispered.

    "Old Ding, what does this mean? Could it be that when you want to give money at the end, it will be a few hundred less?"

    "It's still a few hundred dollars less. Last time we only ate two vegetarian dishes, so we were extorted five hundred yuan. These meals must cost tens of thousands."

    "This is not a meal, this is a Hongmen Banquet."

    To them, if you stir-fry two vegetarian dishes and add a few pickles, they can still eat without worry, but if you prepare such a big table of food, it will actually scare them.

    "Come here for dinner, why are you standing there?" Xu Ze said.

    "Here comes the big goose!" Xue Chengdong came from outside, pushing a cart with a large pot of stewed goose on it.

    Geese are so expensive. Usually, these workers save goose eggs and sell them, but rarely eat them themselves.

    ¡°As a result, you have stewed a goose now. If you eat it, you may need to add several thousand yuan to the tens of thousands.

    ??????????????? Lao Ding now regrets coming here. He could have saved up to 77, 88 or 80 cents for the treatment expenses for his wife, but if he eats this meal, he will probably have to save for a while.

    A Gui came out from the kitchen with a pot of pig's trotters. These pig's trotters were all cut. Otherwise, if each of the workers had one, it would really not be enough to eat.

    Agui looked at their expressions and understood something was wrong. He immediately understood what they meant. He knew this situation very well because he had planned a Hongmen Banquet before.

    Agui walked over and said: "Uncle Ding, don't worry, just eat with confidence. As long as the saplings are planted, I guarantee that Brother Tian will pay the balance, and there will never be a cent less. The same goes for the two of us."  It¡¯s my first time to entertain guests, so I made a lot of food, so that I can work better, right?¡±

    Lao Ding nodded, "I understand, then we'll thank you first."

    After saying this, Lao Ding walked over, and the other workers naturally followed.

    At the beginning, they were a little nervous about eating.I was a little embarrassed and worried about money. After drinking fruit wine and tasting pig trotters, I started talking and laughing.

    After the meal, there was a lot of food left, but Lao Ding and the others were full. He said goodbye to them and went to the orchard to get busy again.

    ¡° Moreover, each of these people are very serious. After all, if you eat other people¡¯s food, you still have to work hard.

    For the remaining meals, Agui and Xu Ze began to pack them and put them in the refrigerator, waiting for Lao Ding and the others to take them back in the afternoon.

    "Finally the work is over!" Xu Ze wiped the sweat from his face while they were washing the dishes.

    Now the weather is getting cooler, but there is still a lot of sweat coming out, which shows how nervous they are.

    "The big things are over, now it's all the little things. We'll cook pig food and feed it to the pigs later, and then we can have lunch." Agui said.

    ¡° If this had been done in the past, lunch would have been finished by now, and it doesn¡¯t mean that they haven¡¯t even cooked the food now. As for the leftovers, it¡¯s not that they dislike it, they really don¡¯t eat what others eat leftovers.

    ¡°Child, it¡¯s time to eat!¡± Old Li Tou shouted cheerfully in the kitchen.

    "ah?"

    Agui and Xu Ze turned back at the same time.

    ?? Lao Litou brought out the meal, which was relatively simple, including scrambled eggs with leeks, spicy and sour potato shreds, and braised pork.

    They didn¡¯t notice Lao Li Tou cooking.

    "Grandpa Li, you" Xu Ze said, "We should be the ones cooking for you."

    "It's okay. Although my cooking skills are not as good as those of Old Mingtou, they are not bad at all. Just wash your hands and come over to eat. I have been busy all afternoon. Thank you for your hard work."

    Old Li Tou went to the kitchen again and took out the hot egg pancakes.

    The two of them sat at the table and started eating. Old Li Tou went to the kitchen again and started cooking pig food.

    "Grandpa Li, don't you want to eat?"

    "I've eaten. I'm old and I'll be full after eating a little. It's just a good time to do some work to eliminate food. You don't have to worry about me."

    Lao Li Tou cooked the pig food and looked at the two children eating outside, with a nostalgic smile on his face. In the past, his children often ate the food he cooked, but they all left after they got married.  .

    After the children have their own families, they rarely come back. Many things will happen to them in the past. How can they be as happy as the old Mingtou?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
