A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 500 Dragon Boat Festival

In addition, Song Ning asked Xu to prepare a holiday gift for each of the old patriarch's family, the head of the village, the Sun family, Manager Zhou, Old Jiang, and Master Yan who was busy building a manor halfway up the mountain and delivered them personally.

Each family received six rice dumplings, two packages of snacks, and an additional small jar of wine.

As for Shuisheng and others, each of them lost a jar of wine, but each of them received a bonus of two taels of silver.

"Sister-in-law, can you give us two jars of wine?"

A few young men received holiday gifts and wanted to have a few drinks together in the evening, so they shamelessly asked Xu for two jars of wine.

Xu didn't say anything, but just told them not to drink too much, as it would affect their work tomorrow, and then gave them two jars of wine.

"It's just two jars of wine. Not enough, not enough. It won't make anyone drunk." The young men happily left with their bonuses, holiday gifts and two jars of wine.

The young men from the Hang family now live in Shuisheng's house, and they give the dormitory in the workshop to the migrant farmhands.

Fortunately, when the workshop was built, Hang Shuheng asked Master Yan's team to renovate Shuisheng's house. They also expanded it to the side and added two side rooms, which was enough for several young men to live in. Even Sun Qinglai, He Chunsheng and others could stay there occasionally.

All the gifts that should be given have been given out, and of course, my family has also received a lot of things.

Some were sent by the old patriarch's family, some by the village head's family, and some by the Sun family. They were scattered, but there were quite a few in total.

This is called human relations, and as long as people live together under the same sky, these human relations are inevitable.

Xu was busy all day today. She started making and cooking rice dumplings early in the morning. After that, she went door to door to deliver gifts and had almost no rest. In the afternoon, she was busy distributing holiday gifts to the young men.

Song Ning, thinking of her hard work, gave her a red envelope of five taels of silver as a bonus, and of course Qingshuang also got some.

"Madam, isn't this too much?" Xu really didn't think that what she did was hard at all.

When they were still at Old Chen's house, their lives were much harder than this. They worked in the fields every day with their backs to the sky. Sometimes they came home after a day's work and didn't even have time to eat a hot meal.

Her current life is more comfortable and free than she had ever dared to imagine before. She is very satisfied with the current situation. Even if she does not get paid for working for her master, she is happy to do it.

Song Ning was never stingy with his own people. He waved his hand and said, "It's not much. You've worked hard today. This is a reward for you. Just keep it."

"Hey, good."

She had been with her master for a long time and understood his temper. His master was not a stingy person. Since he had given her a reward, she should just keep it well. If she said more, it would seem hypocritical. If she didn't give any, she would make her master unhappy.

When Hang Shuheng returned home, Yangyang showed him the small rice dumplings that he had received in the elementary school. "Daddy, look, these are the rice dumplings we made in the elementary school today. They are delicious. Come and try them. They are meat dumplings!"

"Really? Did you wrap this?" Hang Shuheng asked with a smile.

"Uh, no, I didn't make it." Yangyang was a little embarrassed. It was indeed not made by him, but he quickly said confidently, "But I also contributed! I was still young, so I couldn't make it well, but I also helped. I helped scoop the rice and pass the hemp rope. In the end, it was mother who made it. Daddy, you can eat it soon."

After giving the small rice dumplings to his father, the little guy saw Uncle Chai tying up the horse and coming out. He ran back with his short legs, got a small rice dumpling and handed it to Uncle Chai.

"Grandpa Chai, these are the rice dumplings we made in our elementary school today. They are delicious. Come and eat them."

Uncle Chai took the rice dumpling and rubbed the little guy's head. It was not in vain that he loved this child so much every day.

The rice dumpling was not very big. I peeled off the rice dumpling leaves and ate the rice dumpling in just a few bites under the expectant eyes of the little one. It was really delicious.

"Grandpa Chai, isn't it delicious?"

"Mm! It's delicious."

After getting a satisfactory answer, the little guy ran away contentedly.

For today's dinner, the staple food is rice dumplings, and the vegetables are the ones the three kids got in elementary school.

As soon as the dishes were served, Yangyang solemnly introduced the origins of the two plates of vegetables.

"Daddy, Grandpa Chai, Auntie Qingshuang, Auntie, these are the vegetables we grew in the primary school!" The little guy called out to everyone one by one, saying, "My brother Mudun and Brother Xiaobao have all been given some vegetables. The vegetables we grow ourselves must be delicious."

Song Ning tapped his nose with amusement and said, "You haven't even tried it yet! You already know it's delicious."

"Yeah! I just know it's delicious. Auntie's cooking is just as delicious as my mother's."

"Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is. Hurry up and sit down to eat!"

The children had already eaten rice dumplings in the primary school today, and they were still willing to eat them now. Song Ning was worried that they would get indigestion if they ate too much, so he only allowed each of them to have one small one.

The three kids didn't have many objections. They listened to Song Ning and ate a small rice dumpling each. As for the two plates of vegetables, they all enjoyed them very much.

Even Mudun and Chen Ran, who usually don't like to eat vegetables, ate a lot of them.

It’s not that they don’t like eating vegetables, but life was difficult in the past and they only had meat a few times a year. Apart from the staple food, vegetables were the most eaten on weekdays.

Now that life is better, we can often eat meat in various ways. The vegetables that we used to eat too much of no longer taste good.

Knowing that they would go to the county town to watch the dragon boat race the next day, the kids went back to their room early to rest in the evening.

The next morning, a horse carriage and a mule cart, carrying a group of people of all ages, went to the county town.

After entering the city, we went straight to Wangjiang Tower without stopping for a moment.

As soon as we arrived at the street along the river in front of Wangjiang Tower, we could feel the festive atmosphere. The riverbank was crowded with people and it was very lively.

Hang Shuheng lifted the curtain and glanced towards the river. With so many people crowded on the riverbank, the safety hazard was quite serious.

Soon, the group arrived at Wangjiang Tower, where a familiar waiter was already waiting. Upon seeing them arrive, he hurriedly sent them to the private room that had been booked in advance.

Tea, snacks and seasonal fruits have already been prepared, and the representative foods of the Dragon Boat Festival are of course also indispensable.

Seeing that they had brought many children with them, the waiter said tactfully, "Tea, snacks, and fruits are free to refill. If you need anything, you can always call the children over."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!" Song Ning nodded and smiled, took out a piece of silver from his purse and handed it to the waiter, "Go and do your work! We will call you if there is anything else."
