On the other side, the Chu family also had a meal.

The crust was crispy and fragrant, and the aroma of meat inside was mixed with the aroma of oil and mushrooms. Chu Xiao was eating so hard that he was shaking his head and even wanted to drink.

Of course, the result was a roll of the eyes from Lin Zheng.

The three little ones' mouths were full of grease as they ate.

They love these dumplings which are like pancakes, have fillings and the fillings are so fragrant.

Chu Jinnian even announced, "From now on, these fried dumplings will be my favorite food! No one is allowed to snatch them from me!"

"But I also think it's my favorite food." Mumu said.

Chu Jinnian looked at him, "Mumu, you said yesterday that meat was your favorite food, why did you change your mind so suddenly?"

“But this is really delicious.”

"Well...well, fried dumplings are your favorite thing too."

"Hey hey hey..."

The two little ones held each other's hands and laughed so happily that their teeth were gnashing.

After breakfast, Shen Zhi took the book copied by Chu Changfeng and went to the county town.

He copied for four days and made almost no mistakes, his handwriting was particularly beautiful, so the bookstore owner gave him two hundred coins.

Shen Zhi held the two hundred coins and looked at them for a long time.

These two hundred coins were so hard to come by.

This was the first money he had made since he fell ill.

Shen Zhi put the two copper coins into his purse and tied it tightly.

Today she still has to find a carpenter to help her make some more tables.

After the order was placed, she originally wanted to buy some meat, but then she remembered that she had some bacon at home that could be made into bacon for the craftsmen, so she didn't buy any.

On the way back, she took the opportunity to carefully check the green peppers planted in her space.

She hasn't looked at them for a long time. Normally, the green pepper seedlings should be as tall as her fingers now.

However, when she arrived at the field, she was stunned.

The peppers that were supposed to be seedlings had now grown as tall as her thighs, with green and red peppers hanging on the pepper vines.

The chili water is refreshing and pleasing to the eye.

Shen Zhi's heart beat faster.

This space...has really changed...

The vegetables I planted bore fruit so quickly, and it’s been less than a month!

Trying to calm herself, she quickly picked all the peppers and put them into her backpack.

In addition to peppers, I also picked a basket of cherries.

It has been a long time since we have served cherries to everyone.

It can be eaten by family members, and a handful can also be given to each craftsman.

When I got home, everyone was gone except Chu Changfeng.

It was just past noon. Chu Xiao and Lin Zheng took the three little kids and Niu Niu, Shitou and a group of other kids to the foot of the mountain to look for Wan Li.

There are several plum trees growing at the foot of the mountain.

This plum variety is unique and gets very little sun, so it bears fruit very late.

Ordinary plums can be eaten in summer, but this kind of plum only bears fruit in early autumn.

After asking Chu Changfeng, Shen Zhi remembered that she seemed to have seen those plum trees.

It is very tall and difficult to climb the tree. Without an adult, it is difficult for the little ones to pick it.

Shen Zhi came out with a basket of washed cherries.

The sun is very bright today, it's a great time to eat fruit.

Chu Changfeng was basking in the sun in the yard. He heard her footsteps and turned around.

Shen Zhi handed him the cherries, "Here, I saw someone selling cherries again today, and I bought a basket."

Chu Changfeng stared at the cherries, took one and put it in his mouth.

He is now certain that this is something Shen Zhi brought himself.

As for how she brought it, he had no idea.

But it is impossible to buy it.

If they have such sweet and delicious fruits here, no one would not know about it.

"Changfeng, let's go and give the craftsmen some water and some of these fruits."

Chu Changfeng nodded and followed her in a wheelchair.

She was wearing a sky blue skirt with slightly frayed cuffs today. Although she looked very beautiful in it, the dress did not serve to set off her figure.

But she didn't seem to care at all. She was carrying a pot of water and a basket of cherries, and was skipping around, looking particularly comfortable and leisurely.

He wondered, how could there be a girl in this world who was so easily satisfied?

Even though he was a useless person, she was willing and even happy to be with him.

When we arrived at the homestead, we saw the craftsmen working hard under the scorching sun.

"Hurry, let's try to build this wall today!"

"Of course I can! I have plenty of energy! Let's have a good meal today!"

Shen Zhi was not at home at noon, so Lin Zheng cooked. Although her cooking was not as delicious as Shen Zhi's, she was willing to use meat.

Shen Zhi told her that every meal should have at least two kilograms of meat and three stir-fried vegetarian dishes.

She followed suit.

So, at noon, she followed Shen Zhi's example and cooked stir-fried vegetables and meat, a portion of smashed cucumber, a portion of stir-fried cabbage, and an egg and mushroom soup with four eggs and a small basket of mushrooms.

The craftsmen were well fed.

They are still reminiscing about it.

"I don't know what we're going to have for dinner. The host's wife should be back by dinner time, and the food she cooks is so delicious!"

"That's right... If everyone does a good job, the boss's wife might even cook chicken for us that day."

"Hahahaha...you really dare to think so!"

Hearing their words, Shen Zhi couldn't help but laugh, "Masters, please stop for a while, drink some water, eat some fruit, and then continue!"

Everyone was silent instantly.

Everyone looked at Shen Zhi and Chu Changfeng, their eyes fixed on the basket she was carrying.

There were purple-red fruits in the basket.

I don't know what kind of fruit it is, but it's so beautiful!

Chu Changfeng: "Come on, the sun is strong today, everyone should drink more water, otherwise you will get heat stroke."

Everyone stopped what they were doing and walked towards them.

After they each drank a bowl of water, Shen Zhi grabbed a handful of cherries for each of them. There were still a few left, so she shared them all with them.

"This fruit is very sweet, you can try it."

Everyone pinched it curiously and smelled it. The fruit had a light fruity aroma, which was very pleasant.

They took a bite and were stunned.

"Boss...what kind of fruit is this? Why have I never eaten it before?"

"This fruit is so sweet! If I sell it, it will probably be more expensive than pears, peaches, plums, etc."

Shen Zhi: "I bought this too. If you like it, just eat it first and we'll go back."

The workers were stunned for a long time after watching the couple leave.

Such a big bunch of sweet fruits can be given to them casually.

At this moment, everyone felt that they were not here to work and earn wages, but rather to take advantage of others.

"I must keep this fruit and take it home for my children and my wife to eat."

"Me too. There are too many fruits. There must be more than a dozen. Then everyone can have a taste."

No one was willing to eat them, so they put the cherries together with the fried dumplings they had saved from the morning.

But one of them was reluctant to eat any of the fruit.

"Da Li, your family only has your wife and son, so it's okay for you to eat two."

"I don't eat. My son is so thin and my wife is sick. They don't have any good food to eat."

All the wages Zhang Dali earned every day had to be used to pay off his debts.

His wife was ill before, and his family borrowed a lot of money. Normally, they couldn't afford to eat meat or fruit.
