Escape from famine: Daddy stands up, Dali girl lies down

“Dad, I’m sorry.

I have failed to fulfill my duty to honor you, so please forgive me." Uncle Wu looked at Wu Yidao and said sincerely.

"You have caused a lot of trouble to my brother-in-law and his family these days. You should come back!"

"Why are you replying? The old man is willing to let Erzhuang raise him."

Wu Yidao's eyebrows raised, wondering what this bastard was planning.

Do you really think he doesn't know what happened and that he and his lovely grandson are not watching?

With my daughter's weak character, she will definitely be ostracized by those women.

As for who they were, my daughter didn't reveal a single word.

Thinking about the package of things he got and the various situations when he met in the bandits' lair, the old man couldn't help but think too much.

When there is a flood, he can jump off the boat decisively.

I can be so cruel as to ignore them now. At my age, of course I want to enjoy my life with my lovely grandchildren.

He was unwilling to take care of a lot of things for his children and grandchildren. Everyone has his own destiny and cannot be forced.

"Dad, you have to give us a chance to honor you!" Uncle Wu said with a wry smile.

"If others knew that we don't take care of the elderly, they would poke us in the back!"

“Why do you care what others say? You have been through so much and you still can’t figure it out.

You deserve to be criticized and criticized. A man should be responsible.

Others say that wind is rain, think about what you did in the past.

You all have no shame, I am ashamed for you all."

Old Man Wu became angrier and angrier as he spoke. He thought about his daughter being bullied and his sons not caring at all.

He raised his hand and wanted to slap his eldest son a few times.

"Grandpa, I'm hungry."

Lin Shu quickly hung on the old man's arm. Her uncle was also a man who cared about his reputation.

What's the point of talking more about the past?

If you are not good at forging your own iron, you can't blame others.

Especially my own mother, with her soft-hearted personality, it will be difficult for her to grow up without going through some hardships.

Hehe, although this statement is a bit immoral.

But it turned out so well that she no longer minded.

Otherwise, it would be so easy for them to share the spoils.

Don't even think about it.

"Eat, my dear grandson is hungry."

Wu Yidao decisively put down his hand and took the opportunity to hold Lin Shu's hand tightly.

Uncle Wu, who almost got beaten, followed behind in shame and didn't dare to say a word.

I don't understand what the old man is angry about.

His wife asked him to invite the old man back home, which was just out of filial piety. What's wrong with that?

As soon as they left the inn, Uncle Wu and his two companions separated from the Lin family.

They just went to buy some dry food, ate it and wanted to rest as soon as possible.

...

It was past noon and many food shops were busy cleaning.

When they first arrived in Lengzhou County, the group did not dare to go to the restaurant for dinner.

The main reason is that I don’t want to be ripped off twice in one day.

The grandparents and grandchildren took the lead and walked into a noodle restaurant. From the shiny tabletop, it could be seen that this noodle restaurant was doing good business.

On the stove outside, three large pots were bubbling with aroma.

Lin Shu stood on tiptoe and could only see the black back of the pot. She sniffed and said.

"Saucy noodles, pork rib noodles, pork offal noodles."

"Hahaha, young guest has a very sensitive nose." Shopkeeper Yuan said with a smile, showing his big belly.

"What kind of noodles would you like to order, my dear? Our noodles are chewy and affordable. I guarantee you'll want another bowl after eating them."

"Hehe, that's great.

I want two bowls of each of the three flavors, and two side dishes.

"Grandpa, what do you think?" Lin Shu said while sucking her saliva.

"Okay, two bowls each first, and more if it's not enough." Wu Yidao agreed readily.

He knew that his good grandson was hungry, so he decided to take care of the little guy first!

"I want pork chop noodles and臊子面."

"I want pork offal noodles."

……

The family members told him what kind of noodles they wanted, and Manager Yuan was so happy that he was grinning.

Rich soup, chewy noodles, and two spoonfuls of red dogwood.

Served with refreshing side dishes, your appetite is immediately whetted and you can only hear the sound of slurping noodles.

Lin Shu ate four bowls of noodles before she took out the bowl for buns from her clothes.

"Boss, two more bowls of each."

Shopkeeper Yuan, who was happily calculating with an abacus, suddenly had a twitching red face.

I couldn't help but look at the little guy twice and the four empty bowls in front of him.

You should know that a bowl of noodles weighs three taels, and an average person can only eat until he is 70% full.

Who can afford to raise such a greedy little fellow?

There are also four half-grown boys, and Manager Yuan feels a bit worried about the couple.

Never mind, as long as he can make money.

...

It was a rare opportunity for the family to have such delicious noodles, so they all ate to their heart's content.

Mrs. Wu, who was always reserved, also let go and ate six big bowls of noodles before she burped in satisfaction.

Wu's sudden increase in appetite really surprised the whole family.

Especially Wu Yidao and Lin Erzhuang, in their perception, Wu has always been a gentle woman.

Judging from her appearance, she must have never been full.

Even though she knew she had plenty of food at home, Mrs. Wu still restrained herself.

When the two thought of this, their noses felt a little sore.

Lin Shu shook her head like a little adult. Wu was the one who suffered because she kept the matter secret.

She said she didn't deserve any sympathy at all.

As soon as the noodles were served, she poured two bowls for Baozi in public.

When Shopkeeper Yuan saw this, his eyes almost twitched to the sky.

[This little guy is too wasteful. This family should know when to spoil their child.]

The family was getting ready to leave with full bellies, and Shopkeeper Yuan was clacking away on an abacus while saying with a smile.

"A bowl of noodles costs twenty cents, and a plate of side dishes costs five cents.

Thirty bowls of noodles cost six hundred wen, and ten plates of side dishes cost fifty wen, a total of six hundred and fifty wen.

Welcome to come again next time! ”

When the family heard the ridiculously high price, they were all speechless.

Lin Erzhuang raised his chin slightly and took out two pieces of silver with some embarrassment.

"Shopkeeper, how much is a pot of sauerkraut?"

Lin Shu suddenly blurted out something and smacked her lips twice.

Saozi is the soul of noodles, and this is the most delicious Saozi she has ever tasted.

Especially the soup, the dry noodles taste even better.

"This……"

Shopkeeper Yuan was stunned by the question. It was the first time he encountered such a situation and he had to do some careful calculations before making a quote.

"Twenty taels of silver!" Shopkeeper Yuan said calmly.

“You can go and ask around, pork in the market costs eighty cents per pound.

It's not expensive to charge you twenty taels of silver for such a big pot.

I still have to pay for the labor and materials, so it’s a losing business.”

Lin Shu rolled her eyes when she heard this. Everyone knows that there is a lot to like about臊子面.

Conscientious businesses use leftovers, while unscrupulous businesses use substandard lymph meat.

Spare ribs and pork offal are not worth anything in this era.

One bucket costs twenty taels of silver, so it’s almost worth robbing.

But she was delivered to the door for others to snatch, and for the sake of a bite of food, they had to acknowledge her even if they didn't want to.

"Give me a bucket like that. Pick it up whenever you want." Lin Shu said gritting her teeth.

Wu stretched out her hand to stop him, but then quietly retracted it.

She believed that if she ate it two more times, she would be able to make臊子 with the same flavor.

There is no need for my daughter to spend money to buy it. Besides, there are so many people taking it back, I can’t eat it all by myself!
