Xu Tutu explained in detail his feelings from observing the centurion, and at the end he did not forget to ask: "Chao'er, why do you pay so much attention to these veterans?"

"Hey, keep it a secret."

Huo Yunchao stretched out his finger and hissed, and he received a blow that caused his brain to collapse!

Before Huo Yunchao could utter a exclamation, Little Fubao shouted fiercely: "Grandpa! It hurts!"

Huo Yunchao was stunned, picked up little Fubao, and kissed her ten times, until her face was covered with saliva.

Xiao Fubao is a very principled child. She was interrupted by her biological father. After her father finished going crazy, she still held on to her grandfather's mistakes: "Grandpa, you can't shoot, dad, it hurts. "

Butcher Xu looked at the angry face of his fat granddaughter and hurriedly admitted his mistake: "Oh! I understand my mistake. I will never knock your father in front of you in the future."

Huo Yunchao screamed strangely: "Dad Xu, you are so cunning! I shouldn't let you..."

Halfway through his accusation, he was silenced by a fierce look from Butcher Xu, and pitifully turned to Xu Ning for comfort and caress.

Xu Ning curled up the corners of his mouth while eating melon and watching the show, and rubbed Huo Yunchao's head like a child.

Huo Yunchao leaned into Xu Ning's arms, held Xu Ning's hand tightly with his hand hidden under the table, and wrote on her palm: I love you.

Xu Ning didn't have any special response, he just held Huo Yunchao's big hand.

After Butcher Xu coaxed little Fubao into bed, he talked to Huo Yunchao about cooking: "Chao'er, do you remember that little girl named Lu Changle? She was the little refugee who disguised herself as a man. Her mother-in-law told me She wanted her second uncle to come to the construction site to make steamed buns. I agreed, but in order to get the job, her second uncle must make good steamed buns that are convincing."

Huo Yunchao asked: "Dad Xu, how were the steamed buns and porridge today? Are they delicious?"

The reason why Butcher Xu relented and agreed to Mrs. Lu's request was because he was not satisfied with his lunch: "The steamed buns were dry and hard, and the cooked gruel had a mushy smell, just like when Ning Niang started cooking pig food when she started doing housework. Even if I smeared the meat sauce that Ning Niang sent me, I still didn't eat it well.

I just walked around and looked around, without exerting any effort. I could barely survive the hunger by eating the steamed buns and gruel. Others who put in a lot of effort are not as lucky as I am. I thought, the amount of food supplied every day is there, but if I find someone who is good at craftsmanship and can make delicious food, the five cents will not be wasted. "

Huo Yunchao asked again: "Dad Xu, did anything go wrong when setting the stove?"

Butcher Xu replied: "The stoves at the construction site were made by bricklayers. Although they are not as strong as the ones we use at home, they can be used to cook a large pot of rice for several months. The problem now is that we lack a few who can control them." What a great cook."

Huo Yunchao suggested: "Dad Xu, then tomorrow you ask Li Zheng and the government servants in charge to find craftsmen who can cook. Aren't there some people who specialize in making banquets? Just mention it to Li Zheng and the others. After all, they also have to eat. The big pot of rice is related to their own taste, so they will not find it troublesome. As for finding craftsmen to cook, it is not difficult to find cooking craftsmen. Although cooking for thousands of people at one time is not an easy job, it is easier than carrying a stone behind your back. "

Butcher Xu slapped his thigh suddenly and said excitedly: "If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten that there are special people to prepare banquets. Those craftsmen who make banquets are really capable of making beautiful and large portions of meals, no matter how they taste. At least putting it on the banquet will help the host family’s face."

Huo Yunchao: "Dad Xu, do you have any other questions?"

Seeing Butcher Xu shaking his head, Huo Yunchao immediately said: "If there is no problem, you can just eat in peace, and little Fubao will accompany your grandpa to eat. Your grandma and I will go to the study to discuss things."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Huo Yunchao led Xu Ning towards the study. There was constant laughter and laughter along the way, causing little Fubao to frequently look up at the door.

Butcher Xu took a handful of short hair from the top of his fat granddaughter's head and coaxed her: "Little Fubao, try it for me. Is this soup still hot for your mouth?"

Little Fu Bao finally regained her attention and pouted her lips to test her grandpa's temperature as a filial piety.

At the same time, Lu Changle, who was far away in the temporary settlement area for refugees, was also fulfilling her filial piety. She said to Mr. Lu vividly: "Master, Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou brought the eldest lady to the construction site to see us. Mr. Xu, look He looks quite fierce, but he is actually very talkative. My mother-in-law went to tell Mr. Xu that she wanted my second uncle to go over and make steamed buns tomorrow, and Mr. Xu agreed. "

Uncle Lu on the other side heard this and continued with a smile: "I can't cut down the tree or pull the branches, but I can still sit there kneading dough and making steamed buns. I don't dare to expect to earn five cents a day. Earning three cents can also be exchanged for some food to go home."

He only had one child, Lu Changping, and had no intention of marrying again. In fact, he separated from his eldest brother and his third brother and established a separate family.

If Lu Changping and Mr. Lu hadn't insisted on not letting Uncle Lu go to work on the construction site, he would have dragging his injured leg over to pull branches this morning. Earning three cents would be enough to buy enough food for two or three meals.

Lu Changping said: "Dad, I have seen that those who cook are not as good as you. After cooking and cooking, you can almost rest. I borrowed a wheelbarrow from Mrs. Xu and will push you to the construction site tomorrow. .”

Lu Changle said with a smile: "Brother, we have to find a chair for my second uncle. His leg injury is not healed yet, so he can't stand for a long time. Second uncle, my eldest brother and I can take turns helping you, as long as we put the chair before the end of the work." Just do enough work.”

Uncle Lu nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I will definitely perform well tomorrow."

Mr. Lu hugged the grain bag that Lu Changle carried back tightly. He was so excited that tears filled his eyes and he was unable to speak for a long time.

Just at this time, a discordant voice appeared: "Boy, don't be too happy. I'm afraid that when you arrive at the construction site tomorrow, Mr. Xu will drive you home as soon as he sees that you are disabled."

The smile on Lu Changle's face froze at the corner of her mouth, and she clenched her fists, not daring to speak out in anger.

She couldn't tell whether she was angry or disappointed, or a combination of both. She couldn't understand why her father wanted to pour cold water on her own brother at this time.

What is her father doing this for?

Hasn't he discovered that the second uncle and the younger brother are eager to completely cut off their relationship with their family?

Lu Changping noticed his cousin's sadness and disappointment, and gently patted the back of her hand to signal her not to make her uncle angry at this juncture.

If the arrogant and selfish uncle really gets into trouble, no one in the family will have a good time.

Second Uncle Lu noticed the quarrelsome look in the eyes of the two juniors, and he replied quietly: "Brother, can't you just look forward to your own brother?"

Lu Da noticed Grandpa Lu's cannibalistic gaze and hurriedly explained: "Second brother, look at what you said, am I telling the truth? The truth is so unpleasant! I am your eldest brother, dear! I Why are you expecting something bad from you? Second brother, I don’t want to say this!"
