While they were talking, Qian Fengping had already entered the kitchen.

To be honest, this is the first time they have invited guests to their home for dinner since they got married.

But there was nothing we could do. We happened to be facing a famine and every household had no food. Let alone providing food for others, it was difficult to even feed ourselves.

Fortunately, I bought some meat with some copper, so it’s not too shabby to treat people to a meal.

Qian Fengping skillfully cut the meat into shreds, set it aside to marinate slightly, and then began to prepare other ingredients.

Chop the green onion, ginger and garlic, stir-fry in hot oil until fragrant, add the marinated shredded pork and stir, the aroma will spread instantly.

Fang Nanzhi came over after smelling the scent and smacked his lips.

"Auntie, it smells so good, what did you do?"

"Shredded pork noodles."

"I know this. Shredded pork tastes better when it's thick and coarse."

Fang Nanzhi came jumping in and stood on tiptoe to look into the pot.

Seeing the marinated pork shreds bubbling in the oil, Fang Nanzhi couldn't wait to have a bite.

"Zhizhi, go out and wait first. This pot is hot, don't get hurt."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll just sit there and watch!"

Fang Nanzhi moved a small stool and sat aside. Even if he couldn't eat it now, it would be good to smell the food!

Qian Fengping had no choice but to speed up.

When the shredded pork was almost cooked, she added water, brought it to a boil, and then added the noodles.

Qian Fengping took some wild vegetables and sprinkled them in, and the fragrance was overwhelming.

By the time the shredded pork noodles came out of the pot, Fang Nanzhi couldn't wait any longer and rushed over to help serve them.

The little girl brought out two bowls that were bigger than her head.

There is a stone table in the yard. Since there are many people here today, we might as well just eat in the yard.

Erwa and the others helped the little girl take over.

Qian Fengping brought out a few more bowls.

Fang Nanzhi waited until all the other guests had theirs before coming to get his own.

"I want more pickles. Auntie makes the best pickles!"

Qian Fengping was amused by her words and simply brought out a bowl of pickled vegetables.

She served another portion and put an egg in it.

"You guys eat first, I'll go get a bowl for Uncle Zhizhi."

Erwa Goudan nodded rapidly, and when he saw her come into the house, he picked up the bowl and started to eat voraciously.

"Third brother, sister-in-law is really good at cooking."

Goudan's cheeks were puffed up from eating, but he didn't forget to say a few words of flattery.

Fang Tong was enjoying his meal and had no time to reply.

The shredded pork is red and saucey, and is also topped with Qian Fengping's special pickled vegetables, which makes it taste amazing.

The old men ate it all in just a few bites, and Qian Fengping, who happened to be coming out, saw it.

No good words can compare to a clean bowl. As a cook, Qian Fengping was very happy.

"If it's not enough, go get more. We've already eaten a lot of noodles."

"How embarrassing."

Erwa and the other two scratched their heads embarrassedly. It had been a long time since they had eaten such delicious food. Moreover, every household was struggling these days, so they felt embarrassed to add more.

Especially white flour and meat.

"Why are you embarrassed now?" Fang Tong thought it was funny, but he didn't forget to remind him, "If you don't eat enough, I will deduct your wages if you don't do your work well in the afternoon."

When the three of them heard this, they looked at each other and then carried their bowls into the kitchen.

When he came out again, he was holding two bowls of vegetarian noodles.

It’s not that Qian Fengping is stingy, the shredded pork is indeed gone.

There was still a little oil in the soup, but it was not as thick as the first bowl.

But they are not picky. Now they are very happy just to be able to eat a mouthful of noodles.

"Then thank you, Third Brother, and thank you, Sister-in-law."

The three of them chuckled and sat back with their bowls of noodles.

After Fang Tong had eaten and drunk his fill, he finally took the time to look at his purple face in the clear water from the tank.

The left eye was slightly swollen and the cheeks were bruised. Fortunately, the swelling was not too high, otherwise it would have looked like a pig's head.

Fang Tong frowned. He made a living by his looks. He wanted to keep these bastards out of his hands!

"I can't eat any more!"

Fang Nanzhi touched her round belly. This bowl of noodles was more than she could eat.

Fang Tong glanced at her and forced a smile.

"After you've eaten, go out with Dad."

It just happened to be a good place for eating. In the past, she didn't have the conditions, so she was always hungry. As a result, she lost control when eating good food.

"Dad, you're already like this, why don't you take a good rest."

Fang Nanzhi didn't want to move.

In the past, when my father was injured, he had to lie in bed for ten days or half a month, and no matter how my grandfather scolded him, he would not work.

Dad has changed now. Alas, this may be what the villagers say, that a man will be more hardworking after marrying a wife.

"What's wrong with me? Even if Dad got beaten, he's still more handsome than your uncles."

Fang Tong was unhappy. This girl was bringing up things that were not related to the topic.

"Third brother, what you said is not very kind. I am obviously the most handsome one."

"I'm not bad looking either."

"Third brother, you're no different from a pighead now, and you're still talking nonsense!"

Tiezhu and the other two were not convinced and started to interrupt.

In terms of self-confidence, the brothers are equally matched.

Fang Tong calmly picked his teeth, crossed his legs, and said with a forced smile, "Bah, you ugly guys, are you really that good-looking that none of you can get married?"

In a word, it is extremely lethal.

The three bachelor brothers were speechless for a moment.

"I not only have a wife, but also a son and a daughter!"

After squeezing his brother, Fang Tong took his daughter out leisurely.

Fang Nanzhi is a daughter after all. Although she is lazy in her words, she still puts on a stern face and goes to support her father.

The father and daughter walked all the way to the village chief's house, where the old village chief was sitting in the yard basking in the sun.

As soon as the old village chief saw Fang Tong, his face fell.

It’s the middle of the day, why is this guy here again?

Although this kid hasn't caused any trouble the last few times he's come, for some reason I feel upset whenever I see him.

The old village chief quietly got up and prepared to go back to the house, but unexpectedly Fang Nanzhi came running towards him with his short legs.

"Hello, Grandpa Village Chief!"

Fang Nanzhi was the first to speak. The village chief, who had originally turned his back, had no choice but to force a smile and look at Fang Nanzhi: "Hey, Zhizhi is good too."

Looking behind the little girl, the village chief was shocked by Fang Tong's embarrassed face.

"What's wrong with you?"

The village chief was worried. Could it be that Fang Tong had a fight with someone in the village?

I thought he had retired long ago, but I didn't expect that.

Are we asking him to make the decision?

"It's just a little thing, it's nothing serious." Fang Tong smiled and changed the subject: "I came here this time to tell you something good."

The old village chief looked at Fang Tong, half believing and half doubting: "What good news?"

Are you really not going to complain to him?

"Aren't you all out there picking chestnuts now? When they grow big, bring them over to my house. I'll take them all. Five cents a pound!"

"But don't buy them with the shells on. You have to remove the shells from the chestnuts before you can charge for them," Fang Tong added.

Otherwise, it would be time-consuming and laborious for our family to collect and shell the fruits.

Upon hearing the price, the vigilance on the village chief's face instantly turned into shock.

Five cents a pound?

Those chestnuts growing on the mountain are free food, and you still have to pay to buy them?

This Fang Tong is really capable. He can actually use money to buy chestnuts.

That's not right. Where did he get the money? Was he trying to bluff him?
