After being abandoned by the educated youth, I became rich in the 80s

When Lan Xin and the others returned to the main house, they saw Old Lady Lan walk into the chicken coop, staring at the group of chickens with a familiar look, and then she reached out and nimbly grabbed a fat, large castrated chicken.

The fat chicken that was caught seemed to know that its death was approaching and struggled desperately. However, in the hands of the strong and healthy old lady Lan, it could only struggle up and down with its feet; it could not move anything else and just kept clucking and shouting.

Seeing Lan Xin and the others coming back, staring at the chicken in their hands, Old Lady Lan began to give orders.

"Oldest family, go boil water and kill the chickens. Second family, help me knead the dough and make some pancakes tonight. Third family, go pick some vegetables from the vegetable garden..."

The old lady had obviously already thought about what dishes to cook in the evening and was arranging them in an orderly manner.

The second elder couple were still in charge of the family, and the daughters-in-law had no complaints about Grandma Lan's orders. What's more, they were also staring at the plump castrated chicken in Grandma Lan's hands, swallowing their saliva, thinking about having a good meal in the evening.

They all responded immediately with a crisp sound and went to work efficiently.

After instructing her daughters-in-law, Old Lady Lan looked at Lan Xin again and said, "Lan Xin, don't go back to boil water tonight. While you still have time, give the two children a bath and go back after you're done."

Lan Xin thought about it and decided it was a good idea. She would have to go back home after eating at Lao Lan's house because it would be dark. She had never used a clay stove before and it would be a waste of time to figure it out. She might as well just wash it at Lao Lan's house.

She nodded in response, found Yingying and Yueyue who were having fun with their cousins, went back to get clothes for them, and then went to take a shower.

After Lan Xin finished giving them a bath, the fat chicken had been killed and plucked, and Old Man Lan, who had gone to buy meat, had returned home. Xu Rufang also picked up the vegetables and started to prepare dinner.

Several sisters-in-law were helping Old Lady Lan, making pancakes here and stewing soup and cooking there. Lan Xin squatted beside them, passing them firewood and lighting the fire, hoping to learn how to use the earthen stove beforehand.

Soon, the aroma of meat and the pungent smell of chili wafted from Lao Lan's kitchen. The smell was so intoxicating that the neighbors couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

I couldn't help but complain: "This Dayong family, it's not a festival, it's not the busy farming season, what kind of meat are they making?"

"Lan Xin has returned home, let's kill a chicken to celebrate."

The people next door to the Lan family also have the surname Lan. It can be said that in the entire Lanjia Village, half of the people have the surname Lan. The remaining families who do not have the surname Lan are divided into several groups. It is considered a small surname and has no confidence.

Lan Xin's family originally had a good reputation in Lanjia Village because they had four sons to support the family. In addition, the wives and daughters-in-law they married were not easy to mess with, so most people did not dare to bully them.

It was because of Lan Xin's love-brained personality that the villagers had something to talk about. In addition, Lan Xin had a falling out with her family, and she was not good at speaking. She married an educated youth and had a big divorce, so the villagers didn't think much of her.

Look, the family next door to the Lan family, who are considered old man Lan’s cousins, said this with disdain.

"Why would she go home and kill a chicken? She should have just stepped over a fire pot. She's already grown up, and she was divorced. Isn't this bringing shame to our village?"

"Dad, divorce is free now. It's not the old days anymore. You can't divorce your wife." Seeing the disgusted look on the face of his father, the head of the family, his son Lan Baishu sucked his saliva and said casually.

"Anyway, it brings shame to our Lan family." Uncle Lan said with a snort.

"Whatever you want. By the way, didn't she say she wanted to find a worker this afternoon who has a sewing machine at home? We have one!"

Lan Baishu, who was squatting in the yard and breathing in the fragrance, said this and looked at his daughter-in-law who was busy in the kitchen.

When he got married, his wife brought him a sewing machine as a dowry. He was very proud of it for a while at first, but within two years, all the other newly married wives in the village also brought sewing machines as dowry. It didn't become common, but it was not a luxury that only one family enjoyed.

Lan Baishu thought, since it was too hot now and there was nothing to do, and he was just sitting there doing nothing, he might as well let his wife do some odd jobs and earn some money.

Lan Baishu's wife happened to come out to get some food and heard what he said. She rolled her eyes at him and snorted.

"You have to go."

The exact situation has not been determined yet. He believed a few gossipy women in the village who said Lan Xin was recruiting people. What if they were playing a trick on her?

He is so good, just talking and embarrassing himself, why doesn't he go himself?

Except for Lan Baishu's family, everyone else in Lanjia Village had the same idea. They didn't believe what the gossipers said, nor did they believe that Lan Xin would be able to find business after a trip to Shanghai and recruit villagers to work.

She hasn't even sorted out her own affairs.

I went to Shanghai and couldn't even find my son, so how could I recruit people for jobs? This is no less than the sun rising from the west, it's just a joke.

So tonight, the topic of conversation in every household in Lanjia Village was Lan Xin, but no one believed that Lan Xin would really hire people for a job.

However, Lan Xin is not clear about this for the time being.

Seeing that the dishes in the kitchen were almost cooked, he called a few children who had stopped playing and were waiting eagerly at the kitchen door.

"Go, go to your aunt's house and ask your father, uncles and other relatives to come home for dinner."

Upon hearing this, the children ran as fast as they could, as if they were competing.

They all had the same idea, which was to wait for the adults to come back so that they could have dinner!

Go home = eat!

They are running in a hurry, one after another.

Lan Xin looked at Yueyue and rushed out quickly, taking the lead.

She couldn't help but sigh, "I'm sweating all over now. My shower was in vain."

"Just wipe the child's body when you get back." Old Mrs. Lan said with a smile.

Looking at Old Lady Lan, "Mom, you are here, who is cooking the dishes?"

Lan Xin looked back and saw that it was Mrs. Lan who was cooking. Green peppers mixed with thinly chopped meat were tumbling in the pot, and the pungent aroma was emitted when being licked by the flames.

Old Lady Lan smiled and said, "Your sister-in-law said she would do it, so I don't need to worry about it."

Lan thought that Sister Lan still hadn't forgotten her small noodle stall and wanted to see how good her cooking skills were.

I didn't give up, that's good.

She was also afraid that in the afternoon, Mrs. Lan would be frightened by the rejection of her whole family.

After Brother Lan and the others come back, the Lan family’s dishes will be ready and we can eat.

The large square dining table was filled with various dishes, most of which were ordinary home-cooked meals, but no one dared to ignore the fragrant chicken soup and several dishes with shredded pork in the middle of the table.

"Okay, I won't say much. Lan Xin, I'm glad you're back. Don't be afraid of anything. Our Lan family will support you." Old man Lan said, his expression not too serious but his tone very firm.

He firmly stated that he and the Lan family were Lan Xin's supporters.

Brother Lan and his brothers also quickly followed suit and said that they would definitely support their sister.

Little Brother Lan patted his chest with a serious face and said like a little adult: "Sister, don't worry, I will make money to support you, Yueyue and Yingying in the future."

As soon as he said this, everyone present laughed. Lan Xin also smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to fulfill your promise. Mom, Dad, and my brothers and sisters-in-law, especially me, it's great to have you as my family."

Lan Xin spoke sincerely.
