The old woman became rich by relying on the supermarket instead of selling her granddaughter
Chapter 56: The whole village is celebrating, choose your own lunch
"Hey, okay, Agui, you've worked so hard, go inside and watch first."
Meng Lan and He Gui said a few polite words, then stepped aside to welcome the person into the house.
Afterwards, she asked her family to quickly move the things to the donkey cart at the door, and then go around the village a few times to hawk the food, so that they could be in time for dinner.
As soon as He Gui entered Meng Lan's house, he saw He Erhua busy moving things.
Although Meng Lan said she brought He Erhua back from town when she was at his house before, but hearing about it is one thing, and actually seeing it is another.
Looking at He Erhua's face which was somewhat similar to He Sanhua's, He Gui was a little absent-minded for a moment. He couldn't help but think, it would be great if Sanhua could come back too.
He hadn't seen her for many years, and didn't know if she was doing well. If Sanhua could return to the village, he wouldn't disturb her life. He just wanted to see her from afar.
It wasn't until He Erhua moved the things to the car outside and turned back that He Gui came back to his senses. When He Erhua passed by him, he murmured softly.
"Sister Erhua, you're really back." There was still some disbelief in his eyes.
Only then did He Erhua notice that the person talking to her was the village chief's youngest son, He Gui.
Thinking that this man almost became her brother-in-law, and that she hadn't seen him for many years, He Erhua's expression was a little stiff for a moment.
"Yes, I'm back. My mother came to pick me up, and my daughter came back with me..."
He Erhua didn't know where to put her hands and seemed a little at a loss. She finally spoke more fluently when talking about her daughter.
She saw Fu Yinzhang who had just come in after moving things, and pulled her in front of her.
"Agui, this is my daughter, Fu Yinzhang." After introducing her daughter to He Gui, He Erhua said to Fu Yinzhang.
"My girl, this is your uncle Gui. We are from the same village and we had a good relationship when we were young."
It's more than just a good relationship. When she was young, she always regarded He Gui as her younger brother and brother-in-law, and thought they could become a family. She didn't expect that it was really fate that played tricks on her.
"Hello, Uncle Agui." After hearing what her mother said, Fu Yinzhang quickly opened her mouth to greet He Gui.
He Gui looked at the half-grown girl in front of him, a hint of sadness flashed across his eyes.
He couldn't help but imagine, if he had taken Sanhua away, if he and Sanhua had been together, then their child would be this big now.
I don’t know how Sanhua has been doing over the years, or whether she has a child.
Ever since he was knocked unconscious by the wealthy man during the bride-stealing incident, He Gui never went to look for He Sanhua again.
He was not capable of marrying her, nor was he capable of leading her a good life.
Since she was married, he couldn't bother her anymore, lest He Sanhua's husband knew about it and would be resentful and treat her badly.
The failure of the bride-stealing attempt must have caused Sanhua a lot of trouble. After all, he owed her.
As long as she lives well, everything is fine.
He Gui, who hadn't smiled for a long time, forced a stiff smile at Fu Yinzhang, "Okay, I came here in a hurry this time and didn't bring a gift for Yinzhang. Uncle Gui will give it to you next time."
This is Sanhua's niece, and also his niece. He Gui looked at Fu Yinzhang with some kindness and affection in his eyes.
He wanted to raise his hand to rub Fu Yinzhang's head, but gave up the idea before he raised his hand. After all, she is a grown-up girl, not a child anymore. Time flies.
Fu Yinzhang's eyes lit up after hearing what He Gui said. This was the first time she felt the warmth of fatherly love from a man other than her three uncles.
She suddenly felt more favorable towards Uncle Agui in front of her.
"Thank you, Uncle Agui." Fu Yinzhang said crisply.
"Child, just tell your mother what you want. Don't bother your Uncle Agui." He Erhua said to Fu Yinzhang in a half-blaming and half-doting tone, then turned and said to He Gui.
"Agui, don't mind it. This kid is used to calling me that. You really don't have to be so polite."
"Sister Erhua, it's okay." He Gui smiled and said nothing more. He concentrated on counting the bricks and tiles needed to build the house.
After Meng Lan and the others moved all the necessary things onto the donkey cart, He Gui had almost estimated the number of bricks and tiles needed.
When He Gui saw Meng Lan and the others were going out with so many things, he couldn't help but come over and ask.
"Aunt, where are you going?"
Meng Lan had nothing to hide, so since He Gui asked, she told the truth.
"I got half a wild boar at home yesterday. I thought we couldn't eat it all, so I made it into a dish and wanted to sell it in the village to see if I could sell it."
He Gui then moved closer to the donkey cart to see the dishes on it clearly. After looking at them for several times, he spoke to Meng Lan in a very serious tone.
"Aunt, I think it can be sold."
"Haha, then I'll give you good luck. Has Agui eaten yet? Fengying, bring a bowl and I'll serve some to Agui."
Meng Lan thought that she would go to the town to see He Sanhua in a few days, and would bring He Sanhua back soon.
When He Sanhua comes back, He Gui will most likely become her new son-in-law, so Meng Lan can't help but become enthusiastic about him.
Good boy, he is deeply in love with her daughter. Now she likes He Gui more and more.
Without giving He Gui a chance to refuse, Meng Lan served him a large bowl of dishes: cold pig ears, cold pig head, cold pig heart, cold pig liver, and a few pieces of pig skin jelly.
Another bowl was topped with some fried tenderloin and pork meatballs.
He Gui refused no matter what, but in the end he couldn't persuade Meng Lan.
He decided in his heart that he would make bricks and tiles for Meng Lan well, and help more and charge less when building the house. Only then did he feel at ease to accept the two big bowls of wild boar meat from Meng Lan.
When He Gui came, he had nothing in his hands, but when he left, he had a big bowl in each hand.
He walked all the way home like this, attracting people on the road to stop and watch, and the children playing on the roadside were almost crying with envy.
Therefore, under He Gui's "propaganda" along the way, Meng Lan and her companions were surrounded by villagers after just walking around Daquan Village for a short while.
“Cold pork head, cold pig ears, cold pig heart, cold pork liver, pork skin jelly, fried meatballs, crispy pork belly, fried tenderloin, four-happiness meatballs, stir-fried pork with green onions!
20 coins per bowl, five dishes of your choice, limited quantity, first come first served. You need to bring your own bowl. "
Because she had no extra bowls, and the villagers could just walk a few steps home to get bowls, so it was convenient for them to use their own bowls to eat at home.
Seeing that more people were watching, Meng Lan started to shout. They were all neighbors and fellow villagers, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
"There are also pork pies for 3 cents each and pork steamed buns for 2 cents each. Such affordable prices are only available today. If you are interested, act quickly. Otherwise, you will miss out forever."
The crowd, who were originally a little hesitant, felt that what she said made so much sense after hearing Meng Lan's call.
Most families could still afford some money, so they all ran home to get bowls, fearing that they would not be able to buy meat if they were too late.
Yesterday they heard that the children of He Laoliu and Hu Shushan had some good luck in the mountains. They encountered a wild boar coming down the mountain, which wisely ran over and killed itself at their feet.
But who can blame them for having such luck? They can only envy and hate that they are not the ones who have encountered such good things.
Some men who received the news late and were unable to help carry the wild boar down the mountain were beating their chests in regret at home last night.
If I had known that such a good thing would happen yesterday, I would have squatted at the door of the village chief's house and waited to help. This way, I could also get a piece of wild boar meat to give to the elderly, wife and children in the family.
As for going to the He family to ask for wild boar meat? No one in the village is so shameless!
It's other people's business if they are lucky. Even if they are jealous, they are from the same village and will meet each other every day. How can they do such shameless things?
Now that the He family has cooked wild boar meat in so many different ways, and the price is so affordable, they absolutely cannot miss this second chance.
Meng Lan watched the villagers who had just surrounded her disperse in an instant, and stood there laughing. Just based on the enthusiasm of the villagers, Meng Lan felt that she would be able to gain a few stall owners in the next few days.
She leaned against the donkey cart and waited for a while, then she saw a figure in the distance running towards them like a wild dog off its leash.
Only when the man ran up to her did Meng Lan see his face clearly.
It’s He Jinliang, the village chief’s eldest grandson.
The guy who wanted sausage instead of pork yesterday.
