After Wen Shutang spoke, the three children immediately sat down at the table and started eating breakfast.

Xiao Ye was the first to pick up a small pancake and took a bite. His mouth was filled with the aroma of beef. The taste was salty, fresh and dense. Apart from being a little hot, there was nothing wrong with it.

He gasped a few times because of the heat, then swallowed the cake whole, his eyes full of amazement.

"This is delicious, Mom!"

Xiao Wan looked at her second brother with a bit of disdain. When would he change his useless look? It’s been a long time since mother’s delicious cooking. Is it necessary for him to have such an expression?

She snorted softly and took a bite of the pancake. The rich taste immediately stimulated her appetite.

Although I was mentally prepared, I was still amazed by the deliciousness.

Xiao Wan didn't bother to talk. She just blew air to lower the temperature of the cake. Then she couldn't wait to take another big bite. The fragrance lingered in her mouth, leaving a long-lasting aftertaste.

“It’s really delicious.”

Xiao Ze also took a bite, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.

Although I knew that Wen Shutang was a good cook, I didn’t expect that she could cook in so many different ways and that every dish she made was so delicious that it made me question my life.

Wen Shutang didn't notice the children's expressions. She was immersed in planning to buy a new yard.

The perfume business is doing very well now. It is too troublesome to go from the village to the town all the time. Besides, Xiao Ze is also taking classes in the academy now. It is not good for him to live in the academy all the time. It is more reassuring to take care of the child personally.

Besides, Xiao Ye and Xiao Wan will have to go to the academy next year, and it is impossible for them to stay in this small mountain village forever. With this in mind, the idea of ​​buying a yard in the town seems much more reasonable.

"Do you think the land price in this town is high?" She suddenly turned to look at Xiao Yizhuo and asked.

Xiao Yizhuo still had half a beef patty in his mouth. When he heard Wen Shutang's question, he quickly took a sip of water and responded.

"I've heard a few things about it before, but I still have to go to town to ask for details."

Wen Shutang was a little disappointed. He had thought that if Xiao Yizhuo knew about it, he wouldn't have to make another trip to the town.

Now the roads are blocked by heavy snow, and ordinary horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts cannot go to town at all. It seems that the matter of buying the yard has to be put on hold for the time being.

Perhaps the expression on her face was too obvious. Xiao Yizhuo noticed it and said, "There's no rush. I'll go fix the hole in the roof later. We'll go to the town to check it out after the snow melts and the road is open in a few days."

This is really the only way now. Wen Shutang nodded, took a bite of the biscuit, and squinted his eyes in satisfaction.

Sure enough, this one is the most delicious. When she was in the army, the old lady in the kitchen would always cook for her separately, and the most delicious thing she made was this beef patty.

It took her a long time to learn how to make the beef filling from her grandmother.

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal, especially Xiao Ye. After the exercise in the morning, he ate so much that his belly was bulging.

Looking at his round belly, Wen Shutang was a little worried that he might have indigestion.

But later, when she saw Xiao Ye drinking a large glass of soy milk with an expressionless face, it seemed that her worries were unnecessary.

The other two children also drank the cup of soy milk in front of them very contentedly, and even Xiao Yizhuo ate a lot of beef patties.

After finishing their meal, the family sat on stools to rest and enjoyed the relaxing after-meal time before starting to divide their work.

Xiao Wan helped Wen Shutang put the dishes into the kitchen, while Xiao Yizhuo took Xiao Ze and Xiao Ye to go upstairs to repair the roof.

Xiao Ye held the ladder on the ground, and Xiao Yizhuo and Xiao Ze carefully climbed onto the roof and began to repair the hole.

When Wen Shutang walked out of the kitchen, she saw Xiao Ze standing on a high place and looking a little shaky. She frowned immediately. She was not too worried about Xiao Yizhuo, after all, this guy had some kung fu skills. But Xiao Ze was different, he was just a child.

"Be careful. Why did you let Aze go up there? Aren't you afraid of him falling? Aye, stand back. Be careful of broken tiles falling from the roof and hitting you."

Xiao Ye put the ladder away and stood obediently beside Wen Shutang.

Xiao Yizhuo was standing on the roof and turned around when he heard Wen Shutang's words. He found that this man seemed to be only worried about Xiao Ze and didn't care much about his safety.

For some reason, Xiao Yizhuo suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. He turned a deaf ear to Wen Shutang's words, but still moved under Xiao Ze, so that even if Xiao Ze slipped, he could catch him quickly.

This also ensures Xiao Ze's safety to a great extent.

Wen Shutang noticed Xiao Yizhuo's little movements and realized that he heard what she said, but she didn't know why he didn't reply, but she didn't think much about it.

Suddenly, many villagers walked past outside the yard one after another, attracting Wen Shutang's attention. She turned her head curiously, a little confused as to why everyone was walking in the same direction.

Logically speaking, with the heavy snow blocking the roads and the fields also covered with snow, people should have nothing to do.

She called out to a villager who was passing by the yard and asked, "Uncle, what are you all doing here?"

Since Xiao Yizhuo rescued the child who ran up the snowy mountain by himself, his family has become a celebrity in the village. Because Wen Shutang agreed to let Xiao Yizhuo go up the mountain to help, everyone's impression of Wen Shutang has changed. They no longer hate her as much as before. Instead, they have more respect for her. Everyone is friendly when they see her, and the contempt and disgust on their faces are no longer seen.

When the uncle heard Wen Shutang's question, he answered cheerfully, "The town sent people to clear the snow, and everyone was anxious to welcome them. The heavy snow blocked the road, so we relied on the government to help clear it, otherwise everyone in our village would be trapped to death."

After saying this, the uncle left without waiting for Wen Shutang to respond.

When Wen Shutang heard the uncle's words, he was stunned at first, then his brows lit up with joy, and he immediately wanted to go out and take a look together.

Xiao Ze stood aside, a little puzzled: "Mom looks like she's very happy?"

"Of course, if we have someone to clear the snow we can go to town and buy a yard." Wen Shutang turned around and replied with a smile.

It was really like God helping her. She just said that she couldn't go to the town to see the house because the road was blocked by heavy snow, but now people from the government have come to help clear the snow.

"Aye and Wan'er, please watch over your brother here and don't let him fall. I'll go take a look and be back soon." After saying that, Wen Shutang also followed the uncle's footsteps and walked towards the village entrance.

Before reaching the village entrance, Wen Shutang saw a large group of people gathered there and it was very lively. When he got closer, he found that there were already many men in official uniforms clearing the snow on the road.

Her face lit up with joy, but before she could take a closer look at the progress of snow clearing, she suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from a distance.

"Madam Wen!"
