Chapter 548 I Feel Sorry for You
When Grandma Lin heard the noise at the door, she knew that Song Shuangshuang and the others had arrived. She shook off the dirt on her apron and stood up.
"How come you have time to come here? Isn't it time for the autumn harvest in the village?" Although she knew that these children were capable, Grandma Lin was still worried that it would have a bad impact if they asked for leave.
The two put down the things they brought and explained to Grandma Lin that the village would not start the autumn harvest until two days later, and they could rest during these two days and go to the city to buy things.
They just happened to come into town to take a look and bring some things back.
"Grandma Lin, you haven't cooked yet, right?"
Although she was quite familiar with the old couple, Song Shuangshuang did not enter the Lin family's kitchen casually.
It seems that Grandma Lin has just started preparing and the meal is not ready yet.
"Not yet. Your Grandpa Lin came back late, so I cooked later. Since you are here, let's eat together. Otherwise, I won't see you for the next two months."
"Hehe, I knew you hadn't cooked yet. Don't prepare it, my brother and his friends went to the state-owned restaurant to buy food, we'll eat together when Grandpa Lin comes back."
"Hey, kid, why are you going to a state-owned restaurant to buy food? It's so expensive. Go and ask your brothers to come back. We have food at home.
You two help me, it will be done in a moment. Why spend that money? "
Grandma Lin didn't say she wanted to eat at home just because she saw what Song Shuangshuang and the others brought. It was because she had food at home and didn't want them to spend extra money.
"They have probably already bought it by now, and the state-owned restaurant will definitely not give us a refund. Besides, there are five of us, plus you, Grandpa Lin, and Shuo Shuo. How long will it take to cook for eight people?
Just listen to me."
It's impossible for her to cook, she's too lazy!
Besides, she doesn't eat like this every day, nor can she afford it. So what's wrong with eating like this for two days?
Seeing that Grandma Lin wanted to say something, Song Shuangshuang simply lowered her eyes to Tan Anjing, and the two of them held Grandma Lin's arms on the left and right.
"Grandma Lin, think about it. We worked in the village for a month and then had to work overtime for two months. In total, we didn't have any good food to eat for three months.
I think you can't disagree with my simple wish of being able to eat some ready-made good food in a state-owned restaurant for the next two days.
Can you please have pity on us and let us have something good to eat?"
Song Shuangshuang and Tan Anjing acted like a spoiled child and acted like a spoiled brat, making Grandma Lin laugh and cry.
"Okay, okay, we old couple and Shuo Shuo will benefit from your kindness and have a meal at the state-owned restaurant."
After Song Shuangshuang and Tan Anjing let go, Grandma Lin looked at them and smiled dotingly.
It's still the character of a child.
Not long after, Grandpa Lin came back. When he opened the door and saw Song Shuangshuang and the others, he was stunned for a moment. Then he walked in quickly and asked the question that Grandma Lin had just asked.
Song Shuangshuang also explained it again.
"Then have a bite at home, otherwise I won't see you for a long time."
Although these children only come once a month, Grandpa Lin has long regarded them as his own children. I really miss them after not seeing them for such a long time.
"You and Grandma Lin are an old couple, and you always say the same thing."
"Oh? What's the matter?" Grandpa Lin asked curiously.
This time Song Shuangshuang didn't need to explain, Grandma Lin told her husband about their going to the state-owned restaurant to buy food.
"You guys really don't treat this place as your own home. Why do you eat at a state-owned restaurant when you are already here? Don't do this next time you come." He also knew that these children were not short of money. They came here at this time to see if the old couple needed anything and wanted to bring it to them.
I’m worried that I won’t be able to take care of them in the next two months.
"Okay, okay, we'll talk next time."
Song Shuangshuang replied with a giggle.
Guessing that Jiang Jingcheng and his friends would soon be back from the state-owned restaurant, the old couple, Song Shuangshuang, and Tan Anjing went into the house to clean the table and put the dishes on the table, waiting for them to come back before starting dinner.
I haven't been here for a while, and the house hasn't changed much. The only change is that the small stove in the corner has been replaced with two long benches.
Song Shuangshuang knew at a glance that these were what the old couple had brought back during this period.
Needless to say why.
Jiang Jingcheng and his companions went straight to the Lin family, carrying the vegetables they bought from the state-owned restaurant.
"You two go first. I'll get the bucket. After dinner, I'll fetch the water back so we don't have to make another trip."
"No need to go back, let's go directly to Grandpa Lin's house. My sister must have brought the bucket over, don't you know her?" He said he was tired, but he still had a lot of work to do, especially something as convenient as carrying the bucket.
Of course, unless his sister bullies him on purpose.
The three of them arrived at Grandpa Lin's house, and Jiang Jingcheng indeed saw the two buckets in the yard.
"Didn't you say I would bring it over? How come you brought it first?"
Song Shuangshuang said nonchalantly that they were just two empty buckets, not that heavy at all, so why should he go through all the trouble.
Turning her head to see that her brother and the others were not paying attention to this side, Song Shuangshuang approached Jiang Jingcheng and whispered, "You are also tired after a day, I feel sorry for you."
After saying that, he took two steps back, turned around and ran into the house, leaving Jiang Jingcheng alone to deal with the anger aroused by Song Shuangshuang.
After dinner, Grandma Lin asked casually if they were going back to the village so late.
"The village is on holiday for two days, so we won't go back today. We can stay at my place for the night and go back tomorrow afternoon."
The old couple also went to Song Shuangshuang's place and knew that there were kangs in both rooms, so it was not a problem to sleep five people.
"That's right, don't bother with this trip. Do you need bedding? If not, we have a set here. If you don't mind, you can take it back and use it. They are all clean.
And tomorrow morning when you get up, come to grandma's house for dinner. I'll make more."
Grandma Lin planned to make them a hearty breakfast using the food Song Shuangshuang brought today.
Several people saw through Grandma Lin's plan at a glance.
The food was meant for the old couple to eat. What was Grandma Lin thinking of making breakfast and then letting them eat it?
Several people refused without even thinking about it.
“I have all the bedding and other things I need, but I have to fetch water twice more.
As for tomorrow's breakfast, Grandma Lin, you know that I am a greedy person. I have not eaten breakfast in a state-owned restaurant in the past few years since I came to the countryside. Hehe, we have agreed before we came that we will go to the state-owned restaurant tomorrow morning to have a look.
Wait until next time. I will definitely come to eat at your place next time I have a chance."
What Song Shuangshuang said was true.
She was genuinely curious about what the state-owned restaurant served in the morning.
I don’t know if there are the fried dough sticks and tofu pudding that she has been craving for. She hasn’t tasted them since she came here.
Don’t ask her whether she likes salty or sweet food. She is from Northeast China, so of course she likes salty food!
