Protagonist:

Chai Mi

Chai Mi then arranged for Liu Zhijing to sit beside Liu Zhanggui: "Da Zhi, sit next to your dad."

Liu Zhijing first sneaked over to Song Qiushui's side, lowered his head and apologized first: "Qiu Shui... uh... uh... indeed I forgot to take that chicken. Afterwards, I reckon, that big rooster also had brothers and sisters or whatever, you see that chicken made you faint from blood, if this were ancient times, they'd execute your whole clan. So I just took the other two living big roosters along, looked at their fur color and they were the same, they were roosters from the same family. Just killed them all, bought them back for you."

Liu Zhijing said while shaking his phone showing three big roosters: "See, this time, does this work?"

Song Qiushui had already successfully cheated four big roosters and two pig heads this morning, enough for her to eat well and drink spicy for several days.

But looking at Liu Zhijing's simple-minded appearance, Song Qiushui couldn't help but tease: "Hehe. Da Zhi, you're not a decent person. You said you'd execute the whole clan for that big rooster, how come you brought back three roosters? Where's the hen? Where are the eggs?"

Liu Zhijing was stunned: "Uh..."

"The so-called chickens lay eggs, eggs hatch chickens, descendants endless... my family's eggs, from now on you contract them." Song Qiushui said gloatingly.

Liu Zhijing was a bit confused: this...

"That's too many..."

"Oh my, Da Zhi, your heart isn't sincere!" Song Qiushui took off her sunglasses: "Look at my eyes..."

Song Qiushui leaned over: "What did you see?"

"Eyes? What did I see... I... I... I..." Liu Zhijing was stuttered by Song Qiushui's words.

Chai Mi sighed, pointing at Liu Zhijing said: "Da Zhi, don't listen to Qiu Shui coaxing you. You sit there and eat. If you listen to her, even selling the village chief wouldn't be enough to fill the hole."

Liu Zhanggui said smiling: "My family's Da Zhi is just like this, honest."

Others said the same, Fu and Liu Zhanggui.

Song Qingshan pulled Song Qiushui: "Eat eat eat. Whatever amount you want..."

"Hmph." Song Qiushui was dissatisfied and sat down, pointing at Liu Zhijing said: "Anyway you owe me eggs, my family eats eggs from now on, you contract them. Everyone present can testify for me."

Facing Song Qiushui's shameless request to the extreme, Liu Zhijing had never seen such a scene, not only stammered but also blushed a bit.

Red like an apple.

Chai Mi brought the dishes and rice up, then opened the alcohol.

Then she first told Song Qiushui in a low voice: "Oh my, you're teasing Da Zhi too much. Da Zhi lacks a heart..."

"How much does he lack a heart?"

"Ow ow lacks... Da Zhi sees a pretty woman and can't speak. You coax him tomorrow, you could coax him until his family is ruined and he'd still say you're good." Chai Mi shook her head helplessly: "Da Zhi originally has a thin face, you still coax him. Later when Da Zhi thinks it over in his heart: Song Qiushui likes me... what to do?"

Song Qiushui didn't think that much.

"I'm telling you this later, you eat yours. Don't coax Da Zhi anymore, look at him blushing. I'm embarrassed too. I feel like you're coaxing a fool..."

Facing Chai Mi's words, Song Qiushui heard them, so she changed the topic, picked up the alcohol bottle: "Brothers, what do you want to drink..."

Everyone:!!!

Song Qingshan hurriedly pulled Song Qiushui: "Don't talk nonsense..."

Lao Liutou was also angered until his mouth was crooked: Damn it, I'm eighty already, an eighteen-year-old comes to talk brotherhood with me...

"Little Song, your daughter..."

Chai Mi hurriedly smoothed things over: "Don't mind, don't mind. Liu Yeye, what do you want to drink? White or beer?"

"Three jiu zhan of white liquor is fine, I'm not used to beer."

Chai Mi then handed the alcohol to Chai You De, gesturing for him to pour.

Chai You De had long been scared by Chai Mi not to speak, nor dare to take the alcohol...

"Third Uncle, what are you thinking? Pour alcohol for my Liu Yeye! My dad is in the house watching the kids, you're the head of the family now, this table you say counts."

Chai You De almost believed it: Go to hell! Not a word Chai Mi says can be believed!!! Just now she wanted to break my right leg... now she says this table I say counts, I don't believe it!!!

But, the next second.

Chai Mi's knife-like gaze came over.

Chai You De trembling took the alcohol bottle, first trembling poured alcohol for Lao Liutou.

"Oh my, no. Third Uncle, your hand is idle so what are you shaking for? Pour a jiu zhan, you spilled almost half a jin! You damn know how to live..." Lao Liutou's speech must include damn...

Quality this thing, Lao Liutou has a bit...

But definitely not too much...

Even if there is, it can be ignored.

And, Lao Liutou's generation is also older, age also older, if no quality says it out, no one dares talk back.

Chai You De in his heart called bitter endlessly: You say why my hand shakes? Isn't it scared by Chai Mi... if I perform badly today, Chai Mi says she'll break my right leg too...

Others might not necessarily be afraid, but Chai You De is afraid.

After all, he didn't believe before, nor was afraid, result his left leg is already broken...

Still not healed to this day.

"Chai Lao San, what's wrong? Mute, I'm talking to you, you thing with no respect..." Lao Liutou dissatisfied put down the cup, immediately fired at Chai You De.

Chai You De closed his mouth: "Uh..."

Chai You De didn't dare speak... he just smiled pointing at his own mouth, ah ah ah indicating he's mute now...

Chai Mi couldn't help but hold back laughter, said: "Liu Yeye, you drink yours. My Third Uncle's throat hurts recently, this isn't my Third Aunt recently wants to take Senior Professional Title exam, always getting angry at my Third Uncle, my Third Uncle is holding it in. This not, got to the throat."

Lao Liutou then was satisfied, but afterwards said a sentence: "sunnong thing, afraid of wife like a grandson, our Old Chai Family, how have your kind of wife-afraid thing..."

Chai You De was angry with rage burning, but could only endure not speaking, picked up a cup of alcohol, directly gulped it down.

Chai Mi saw Chai You De not pouring alcohol, helplessly picked up the alcohol bottle herself, poured for each one by one.

"Come, Village Chief, my Liu Yeye's cup is full. Let me pour you something..." Chai Mi said, holding the baijiu.

Liu Zhanggui was not polite either; he lit a cigarette and nudged his wine cup.

"Switch cups, switch cups. You're not seventy or eighty, still using a wine cup. Use a cup..." Saying this, Chai Mi took a two-liang mouth cup from beside her and filled it for Liu Zhanggui.

"Switch cups, whatever you say goes." Liu Zhanggui said: "Today, I must drink a couple of cups properly. Let me tell you, without Chai Mi, my daughter-in-law couldn't have come back. My Da Zhi always says Chai Mi is his reborn parents..."

Chai Mi: "Uh..."

Da Zhi's head indeed wasn't very bright; using that adjective... was truly fitting.

Song Qiushui also frowned tightly, muttering in a low voice: "Damn! There's even recognizing a mom... Awesome! Da Zhi recognizes Chai Mi as his reborn mother, and Chai Mi and I are sworn sisters. Round it off, and I'm Da Zhi's birth mother..."

Liu Zhijing kept his head down and said nothing, thinking: My old man suffered from being uneducated: what I said was that Chai Mi gave my mom a chance at rebirth... how did it come out of my old man's mouth that Chai Mi became my mom? My old man is truly just making up rumors for no reason...

But it was very obvious.

Liu Zhanggui didn't realize he'd used the wrong word; he raised his cup, then snatched the wine bottle from Chai Mi's hand and poured for Song Qingshan.

Then he poured for Zhou Fang...

A flash of surprise crossed Zhou Fang's face, then he respectfully took the cup: "Village Chief, you're too kind."

Liu Zhanggui didn't care about Zhou Fang at all, then had everyone fill their cups. Holding his cup, he said to the people eating at other tables: "Let me just say a couple of words. The spring breeze of reform blows across the land, the Chinese people truly strive... Our village will surely get better and better. Today there are no outsiders, eat freely, drink freely... this... that... it's all in the wine, I'll drink mine first."

Liu Zhanggui downed it in one gulp.

Two liang of sorghum liquor went down, and instantly a wave of heat surged through his five viscera and six bowels: "Comfortable. This liquor has a kick..."

Everyone also said it was good: The Village Chief set a fine example; the road to prosperity for Sanjiacun couldn't do without Liu Zhanggui; the Village Chief is the guide of Sanjiacun...

Flattery, they knew how to do that too.

After all, the pork was brought by Liu Zhanggui.

Everyone was eating the pork stewed with vermicelli that Liu Zhanggui had brought, so they didn't mind saying a few nice words for him.

Whether it was sincere or flattery, who could say.

As for whether Liu Zhanggui had done well or not these past two years, overall life was a bit better than the first two years. Liu Zhanggui had a little credit, but most importantly, these past two years of Reform and Opening-up, and the household responsibility system, were the key.

It liberated productivity, no more eating from the big communal pot, and with fertilizer, grain output increased, so ordinary people's lives did improve.

So in the past, dumplings were only eaten at New Year, but now with people coming and going, having pork in dishes wasn't particularly rare anymore.

Everyone at the table praised Liu Zhanggui. Especially Su Wan...

Su Wan wasn't very educated and didn't know much, but hearing Chai Mi say these past two times that Liu Zhanggui had actually achieved "fairness and justice" when Chai Mi fought at the old house, she also felt Liu Zhanggui was like a real person...

And Liu Zhanggui had sent two pigs, and his son Da Zhi had been busy running around today, so Su Wan was very moved. She said: "Chai Mi, pour wine for the Village Chief. Today keep your Uncle company; your Uncle has been working hard day and night these past two days, really not slacking off."

Chai Mi went along and said: "Wait, I remember. I have two bottles of expired wine. When I was nine and loved to play, at this house of mine..."

Chai Mi pointed to the house behind her and said: "When this house was being built, my mom bought two bottles of wine, and later I secretly dug a hole and hid them."

Back then Chai Mi was young, afraid the hired hands would drink, so she came up with this desperate measure.

Thinking about it, Chai Mi felt a bit embarrassed.

Fortunately, it had been a very long time, and no one would blame her for being only nine years old back then...

So Chai Mi ran to the back courtyard's wall root, took out the two hidden bottles of wine. Not jars, just ordinary grain-brewed baijiu, unopened, and still kept well.

Chai Mi took them out, then first handed them to Chai You De...

Professional matters should be handled by professionals.

"Third Uncle, look at these two bottles of wine, can they still be drunk? Expired, been years. Don't know how they are..."

Aged old wine.

Chai You De smelled it with his nose, immediately became intoxicated, and smiled until his face wrinkled: "Good stuff. This is pure grain-brewed; expired doesn't matter. Pure grain-brewed wine, the older the better. That Maotai can be stored for over ten years; this wine may not compare to Maotai, but it's definitely good wine."

Seeing the wine, Chai You De had long forgotten that Chai Mi wouldn't let him speak.

Besides, holding it in was uncomfortable.

Chai You De first poured himself a cup, took a sip, then savored it carefully: "Aged five or six years, the taste has become sweet."

Sweet?

Song Qiushui frowned, she also poured a little, took a sip, and stuck out her tongue from the spiciness.

"Pure nonsense, it's spicy."

Chai You De smiled without speaking, then poured for Lao Liutou and the others: "She doesn't understand. This wine is good stuff."

"Sure? Not expired, right? You guys don't drink bad wine." Chai Mi warned.

The several old men said: This wine is grain-brewed, so there's no such thing as expired.

Several older men drinking, Chai Mi asked the head-down Liu Zhijing: "Da Zhi, what are you drinking? Beer?"

Liu Zhijing nodded somewhat shyly, and Chai Mi then brought a bottle of beer, opened the cap, and handed it to Liu Zhijing.

But Liu Zhijing held the beer, fidgeting, neither pouring nor saying he wouldn't drink.

It made Song Qiushui beside him unable to watch.

Song Qiushui touched Liu Zhijing's forehead: "Da Zhi, your forehead is hot, do you have a fever?"

Liu Zhijing didn't have a fever; he just felt the beer was brought by Chai Mi, and he was a little moved...

Chai Mi also frowned, then took the beer bottle, poured a bowl of wine for Liu Zhijing: "What are you shy about now, drink yours."

Liu Zhijing then slowly lowered his head and drank.

And Zhou Fang beside him was in a state of being half-dead, he lowered his head and ate, wolfing down his food.

"Want a drink?"

"Pearl Peach."

Pearl Peach is a canned drink, produced in Guangdong, sold for one yuan two jiao a bottle in this era, considered a high-end drink.

Chai Mi went to look, and really found a case of Pearl Peach, apparently brought by her maternal aunt when she came to see her mother recently.

Chai Mi handed the can to Zhou Fang, but Zhou Fang didn't reach out; instead he stared at the can, then looked at the nearby wine bottles.

Chai Mi frowned:???

Let me help him get up the pull-tab can?

When did this guy get so many problems?!

As they say, give an inch and they'll take a mile; Chai Mi directly put the pull-tab can in front of Zhou Fang, then went to get a few more bottles, gave one to Mother, one to Song Qiushui, and opened one for herself.

"Mom, the braised pork is quite tender, quite delicious. The fatty parts aren't greasy either, eat more." Chai Mi picked up meat for Mother.

Eating fatty meat can replenish Milk.

This point has always been a Habit in Nong Cun.

Compared to later generations' things like ejiao, pig trotters, it's far more nourishing.

Su Wan originally didn't eat fatty meat, would find it especially greasy, would vomit if she ate it; today she tasted a bit, although still nauseated, but for her little daughter to have Milk, she forced herself to endure and swallowed it down.
