Zhang Faxiang and the other three men were dubious.

Shi Wucai said that this kind of thing is trustworthy, "If you really have a heart, let Shen boy do the fortune telling and see if he is right."

Zhang Faxiang, "Then Shen boy, can you do the math for me?"

For the sake of helping them with the work, Shi Qianqian never refuses anyone who comes.

Zhang Faxiang's life is better than the other three's. The other three are old people, but Zhang Faxiang can make a fortune in his thirties.

Zhang Faxiang's heart was beating like thunder, "I, can I really make a fortune?"

Think about when his mother-in-law gave birth to her youngest son, the family couldn't even eat, and the mother-in-law had no milk. If it weren't for Wang Chunmei's help, his youngest son would not be able to support him.

Zhang Faxiang's eyes were slightly hot.

He believed Shi Shen's words, Shi Shen told his life story exactly, some things only he knew, it was hard to believe it or not.

Wang Chunmei went home to cook. The five men originally wanted to eat at home, but after Wang Chunmei talked about it, they didn't refuse.

The food is on the table, and the dishes and chopsticks are set.

Six dishes and one soup, four meat and two vegetables.

The rice is steamed in a rice bucket, and the hot white rice is so fragrant that people drool.

Wang Chunmei called Wu Xiaosi home for dinner, but she didn't see Gu Fu's voice, "Shen'er, go and call for Sheng Sheng to come out to eat, holding his book every day, aren't you hungry?"

Shi Shen pouted, "He's gone."

Wang Chunmei held a bowl of rice, "Let's go? Where are you going?"

Wu Xiaosi looked at his brother in embarrassment, his eyes were dripping, as bright as a light bulb.

Shi Shen said, "Go home, where can I go?"

Wang Chunmei, "..." Did you go back all right?Didn't even say hello, just came home so suddenly? "Didn't that mother earn a lot of money? He didn't finish what he gave, so he didn't lose money?"

Picking up ginseng, "!!!"

Wu Xiaosi said quietly, "Auntie, he is not bad, my brother treats him very well."

Wang Chunmei nodded his little head, "Your brother is your brother, what he gave to aunt is to aunt, that's different." She looked at Shishen, "Did Sheng Sheng say anything about coming to our house?"

Shi Shen snorted.

Wang Chunmei knew her son had a temper.

Turning his head to see the five big men eating carefully, only holding the long greens, and the stew in the big casserole was not even touched.

"Eat! Why are you so polite! If you are not full, how can you have the strength to work for me?"

He snatched Zhang Faxiang's bowl and scooped a tablespoon of pork soup and meat down. Zhang Faxiang quickly held the bowl and declined, "Enough is enough, I can scoop it myself."

Wang Chunmei gave each of the others a spoonful.

"If you don't eat, I won't call you for help next time."

The ears of the five big men were red-faced, and they could cook a meal like this in their home during the Chinese New Year.When they saw this big table of meat and vegetables, the five big men couldn't tell what it was like.

That is to say, only people who are sincere and sincere can have such meals to entertain helpers.

To be honest, Wang Chunmei had conflicts with many women in the village, and even quarreled with their women.When she came to the house to ask them to help build the house, they really didn't want to come.

The five of them and Wang Chunmei were not close relatives, and their relationship was not close.

She is also a widow, and she has a bad temper in the eyes of the villagers. They are all big men, and no one wants to cause trouble for themselves.

It was the mother-in-law at home who asked them to go.

The mother-in-law said, "Who said that we have no friendship when we quarrel? The friendship is good! When she helped me, she didn't let you see it! When you go to help, work hard and don't be lazy! She can cover The house, it can be regarded as coming out. Hey, when will our family be able to build a house... Don't talk about building a house, when can we separate, I will be thankful..."

Men, "..."

The situation of the five families is different, but the meaning of the women is generally the same.They really didn't expect that their own mother-in-law could still have friendship with Wang Chunmei.

Before carrying the hoe today, I also told them, "Come back home for dinner after work, don't eat at her house, do you hear me?"

None of them had smelled pork for half a year.

Big men are more anxious than usual when eating.

As for the table with meat, fish, and vegetables, or white rice, the men felt very lucky, and fortunately they listened to the mother-in-law and came to help!

After a meal, I ate my belly round.

Wang Chunmei went to the kitchen and brought out a large bowl of five yuan. It was filled with half a bowl of rice and half a bowl of meat. There was no fish, and it was all fat meat. The bowl was full.

Pack it in a small basket with a lid.

"Take it back and feed it to your wives and children."

The five big men were stunned, and then quickly waved their hands, "How can we walk around after eating? We just lick our faces when we are full, so how can we take it back for the wives and children to eat?"

Wang Chunmei looked at them, "When I cook so many dishes, it's just for you to eat? Why can't a big man eat enough? For your wives and children. Hurry up and take it back, and you have to go to work after delivery."

The remaining meat dishes on the table were put into bowls, and even the meat in the stewed pork soup was taken out.

The men fell silent.

When they just ate, they thought about saving a piece of meat for their mother-in-law and children, but they also knew that they wanted to let their mother-in-law and children eat it, that would be too shameless.None of them expected that Wang Chunmei could do this.

Zhang Faxiang was the first to unscrew the basket, "Thank you."

This "thank you" is solemn and emotional.

The others also twisted the basket, and the big man's eyes were slightly red.

**

When Zhang Faxiang came home, his mother-in-law Luo Yan was still cooking, steaming a pot of sweet potatoes and making a pimple soup.

When his mother-in-law was pregnant with the youngest son, she separated from her brothers, and the father and mother ate with the eldest brother. His family gave the parents 12 yuan a month as filial piety, and gave gifts during the New Year and holidays.If the father and mother have a headache and brain fever, the eldest brother will be responsible. If they are seriously ill and hospitalized, the four sons will share the responsibility.

He is the youngest son in the family. When the family was separated, they only had eight acres of land. The family was poor, and they borrowed money to build this house. When his youngest son was born, he almost had nothing to support him.

Luo Yan saw him standing in the yard and asked him to enter the house, "What are you doing with the pestle? Come in and light the fire. I'll pick up the sweet potatoes and you eat first. How much work did you do in the morning? The land where Chunmei opened up wasteland and built a house If it is suitable, farming will not work..."

Zhang Faxiang put the basket on the table without saying a word, and took out the bowl full of food.

Luo Yan's eyes straightened.

Putting the sweet potato on the stove, he got angry anxiously, "Chunmei gave it to me? Didn't I tell you to go home for dinner? Didn't you listen to it?"

Zhang Faxiang sat on the stool and wiped his face with his big hand, "I'm full, this is for you and the child."

Luo Yan, "...what?"

Zhang Faxiang's eyes were weird, didn't you hear clearly?

Luo Yan gasped, and was so angry that she hit him with her fist, "You came back after you were full? Zhang Faxiang, do you want to be ashamed? The sugar and milk powder that Chunmei gave your son a few days ago are still in the cabinet. After eating, you...you..."

Zhang Faxiang said calmly, "Eat it! We will pay back the favor we owe later!" He looked at Luo Yan's thin body, his face was sallow and colorless, "Eat some, too. I'm too weak, and I'm not capable. Let you suffer with me."

Luo Yan, "..."

Zhang Faxiang, "Boy Shen said that I will make a fortune, just wait, I will let you live a good life."

After all, this bowl of meat was left at home, Luo Yan was not willing to eat it, and distributed it to the three children. Seeing the three children eating deliciously and impatiently, she felt sour.

The men from the other four families were not as clean as Zhang Faxiang's house. They hadn't separated yet. The brothers lived together as a big family. When the baskets were twisted back, they all sneaked away from the family members and hid directly in their rooms.

After the mothers-in-law of several families found out, they didn't say anything, they just silently left the rice and meat for the children to eat.

"Mom, it smells so good."

"Mom, when can we eat meat again?"

The adults who asked sighed sadly.

To say that life is much better now than in 1960, at least there is no need to go hungry, but the village is poor, and the food grown all year round is handed over and distributed to the family, so they can barely survive one Year.

Most people can only eat pork during the Chinese New Year.

Because only during the Chinese New Year, their village will kill pigs and share the meat.

Wang Chunmei was going to build a red brick house, and many people in the village stared at her. Knowing that there were five families helping to dig the foundation, a lot of gossip was spread behind her back.

Zhang Cuifen said to her sister-in-law Luo Yan, "Is your man going to help? Did Wang Chunmei pay or work points?"

Luo Yan smiled, "Given work points."

Zhang Cuifen, "How many work points can she get? Will it be deducted in one day?"

Luo Yan is in charge of a few centimeters, and she will not publicly blame Zhang Cuifen, after all, Zhang Cuifen is not only her second sister-in-law, but also the wife of the village chief.Wang Chunmei's work points are not a secret, so let's just say it.

Zhang Cuifen was annoyed, "There are just a few, how many days can she afford?"

Luo Yan just laughed and didn't answer.

Zhang Cuifen couldn't talk to her, so she left with a hoe on her shoulders. Not long after, everyone in the village heard that Wang Chunmei was given work points for digging the foundation.

Zhang Laitou also came to help with a hoe.

The matter between him and Wang Chunmei was spread by Shi Weinan, of course he knew it, but it was exactly what he wanted, and the rumor was not wrong, he just fell in love with Wang Chunmei, and he got an eldest son for nothing.

"Don't you call me to build a house? I don't need you to give work points for my helper, just take care of the food."

Zhang Faxiang and the others looked at him.

Take care of the meal?

Ha ha!

Wang Chunmei was impatient with him, "Zhang Laitou, hurry up, I didn't ask you to work! Who in the whole village doesn't know that you want to plot against me? Let me tell you, I don't like you, walk around, Don't hang around in front of me."

Zhang Laitou smiled hippie, "You don't like me, but I like you."

Bang!

Wang Chunmei threw a stone at him.

Zhang Laitou quickly jumped away, the fist-sized stone hit him, and he couldn't be smashed into a bloody hole.

"Wang Chunmei, you want to kill someone."

"You, compared with Shen'er's father, you can't compare with a single finger. Hurry up, don't mention these irresponsible things in front of me in the future. I told you to joke before, but you dare to talk about me in the future. You see I don't clean you up."

Zhang Laitou saw that she was determined not to be nice to him, so he knew it was over.
