Some who couldn't help themselves even urged directly, "Aunt Lotus, please try it and tell us what it tastes like."

Aunt Lotus looked at the crowd and carefully took a piece of braised meat. "I really ate it, don't lie to me."

"Don't worry, Auntie, just eat it. It's really free."

Bai Zhizhi was amused by her appearance and had to cover her mouth to prevent herself from laughing out loud.

The taste of braised meat is so delicious, especially for people who haven't seen oil and water for a long time.

Looking at the brightly colored, especially the steaming, braised meat, Aunt Hehua finally couldn't help it. She closed her eyes, made up her mind, and stuffed the piece of meat directly into her mouth.

No matter what, she would fight even if it meant money.

The braised meat was indeed delicious, a taste I had never tried before.

Aunt Hehua couldn't help but reveal an intoxicated expression on her face.

Bai Zhizhi naturally handed the braised meat to other people in Yanghe Village.

The aroma of the braised meat was already overbearing, and now seeing Aunt Hehua's appearance, how could the others resist? They immediately rushed to grab the braised meat, fearing that they would not be able to eat it.

Originally, she came to get some information. Now the braised meat attracted so many people. Although it might not be sold out, Bai Zhizhi did not leave in a hurry. Instead, she found a comfortable place to sit down.

Yanghe Village was rarely so lively, and the crowd soon attracted more people.

Some people even tasted the braised meat but felt too embarrassed to take another piece, so they sneaked back to call other people at home.

Bai Zhizhi simply pretended not to see this situation.

Anyway, the samples were all small pieces, so even if she couldn't sell any, she wouldn't lose much.

Bai Zhizhi had no objections, so Zhou Changsheng naturally didn't say anything either. He just sat on the other side and chatted with a few elderly people in Yanghe Village.

Bai Zhizhi naturally wouldn't give away the braised meat for free, and she started chatting casually with the people around her.

Aunt Hehua went home at some point and handed two small stools to Bai Zhizhi with an embarrassed look on her face.

Bai Zhizhi didn't complain. She sat on one seat for herself and gave one to her father-in-law. At the same time, she swiftly picked up two small pieces of braised meat and handed them to Aunt Hehua.

Aunt Hehua directly stuffed the meat into the hands of the little girl following behind her.

The little girl poked her head out, said thank you with a blushing face, and ran away quickly.

"Is that my aunt's little girl? She's so pretty. How old is she?"

Bai Zhizhi asked casually.

Hearing someone praising her child, Aunt Hehua's face immediately lit up with smiles. "She's my little granddaughter. Life at home was tough, and the child has suffered a lot with us."

When talking about her own children, Aunt Hehua seemed to open up and started talking incessantly.

"Life was tough in our village. Don't look at Niuniu now. We barely made ends meet a few years ago. It took a lot of effort to get her to this age..."

When they heard this, other people in the village also joined in the conversation.

"Who says it's not true? At that time, every family had a few children die. It was a sin to say the least. How many people in the village died at that time?"

"My mother-in-law told me that my brother-in-law passed away that year, along with our twin children. Life was tough back then."

……

The women in the crowd seemed to be infected by the emotions, and they began to cry as they spoke.

When the men nearby heard what happened a few years ago, although they were not as exaggerated as the women, they also sighed.

Bai Zhizhi was instantly interested. She had just heard her father-in-law say that the village had suffered a disaster and had become like this. She thought it was related to what happened a few years ago.

I just don’t know what happened at that time.

As if she saw Bai Zhizhi's confusion, and as if she felt embarrassed for eating Bai Zhizhi's braised meat for nothing, Aunt Hehua wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and talked about the past in a disjointed manner.

"Don't look at us now because there aren't many people in our village. A few years ago, before the disaster, there were hundreds of households in our village. Life was easy back then, nothing like now..."
