Chapter 1107

After finishing talking about selling the horses, the family chatted for a while, then Wang Li's family of four arrived, and immediately after, Shen Wei and Zhao Cuiyun also brought their children separately.

When everyone started eating the hot pot fish and gnawing on the beef bones, they naturally praised Wang An again.

It must be said that being praised all night tonight made Wang An feel a bit lost.

A lively dinner, everyone ate until they were full.

Of course, drinking alcohol was an adult's business, and the children drank soda.

After dinner, Shen Wei, Zhao Cuiyun, and the second mother Yao Ping helped clean up the leftovers, and then everyone went home to rest.

It must be said that the beef bones and beef offal stewed by Wang An were quite impressive.

Because although the meat on the bones wasn't stewed to the point of falling off at a touch, and it was still very chewy, it wasn't to the point where one had to use a knife to pick the meat off like Mu Xueqing did.

And whether it was the beef or the beef offal, it gave people a feeling of being just right.

In short, everyone was very satisfied with the meal.

A night without words, in the blink of an eye, it was dawn.

In the morning, just as Wang An finished practicing martial arts and was planning to wash up, Huang Baoguo led the sister and brother Huang Li and Huang Zhong, along with that person called Er Gangzi, appeared at the gate of Wang An's house.

It must be said that these four people came really early; I don't know if they set off from Weizigou in the middle of the night.

Because Huang Li was there, the dogs only barked a few times to give the people in the house a sign, and then the dogs continued to lie there and sleep.

Wang An put down his toothbrush and walked toward the gate to welcome them.

After a simple greeting, Wang An said with a smile:

"Uncle Huang, Uncle Gangzi, you guys came early enough; you must have left home before dawn, right?"

Huang Baoguo smiled a bit shyly:

"Yeah, it's because I was afraid of delaying the work, so I came over early, hehehe."

Er Gangzi didn't speak, just smiled at Wang An.

Wang An smiled:

"Hurry into the house, hurry into the house, it's almost time to eat."

As he spoke, Wang An opened the gate and welcomed the group of four into the courtyard.

As soon as they entered the courtyard and saw the brick-and-tile main house, the side rooms, and various livestock pens, as well as the chain-track vehicle, four-wheeled cart, and walking tractor parked in the yard—agricultural machinery rarely seen in this era—Huang Baoguo and Er Gangzi immediately became even more restrained.

There was no other way; the visual impact of the buildings and agricultural vehicles in Wang An's yard could instantly make many people feel a sense of self-shame, or rather, a feeling of being inferior.

Seeing the groups of sika deer, wild boars, roe deer, and yellow sheep in Wang An's yard, as well as the heads of the mules, horses, and donkeys peeking out from the stable, the two men's eyes weren't enough to take it all in.

It must be admitted that in this era, Wang An's family was truly too wealthy.

It is no exaggeration to say that even in later generations, the vast majority of rural families wouldn't reach the conditions of Wang An's family.

Without explaining anything to the two, Wang An led the four into the house, and immediately after, Wang Dazhu began to entertain Huang Baoguo, his son, and Er Gangzi; as for Huang Li, she had already taken the initiative to go to the back room to help Liu Guilan with work.

After Wang An finished washing his face and brushing his teeth, Shen Wei and Zhao Cuiyun also came over.

With the busyness of a group of women, breakfast was soon on the table.

Seeing the food on the table, Huang Baoguo, his son, and Er Gangzi insisted on holding their bowls and eating at the stove, but they were refused by Wang An's family; the main thing was that although they were hired by Wang An's family to work, Wang An's family couldn't treat them differently.

No matter what, those who come are guests, and since they are guests, they should eat at the same table as the host; there's no reason to let guests squat at the stove to eat.

Breakfast was still two-mixed-flour steamed buns and large-grain porridge; as for the dishes, besides pickled cucumbers, pickled green peppers, and garlic eggplants, there were also the beef bones and stewed fish left over from last night.

Looking at the beef bones and stewed fish on the table, Huang Baoguo and Er Gangzi were always too embarrassed to reach out with their chopsticks, and even Huang Zhong only tasted a little, only picking a few small pieces of shredded meat from the beef bone basin.

Consequently, Wang An directly reached out, took the 3 largest pieces of beef bone, and placed them in the bowls of the three, while persuading them:

"Uncle Huang, Uncle Gangzi, and that little Zhong, what do you mean by not reaching out with your chopsticks? I'm telling you, don't be polite when you come here, just treat it as your own home, eat and drink as you should, our family doesn't have that many issues."

After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Dazhu said:

"Yeah, why are you being so distant? Eat, don't be polite."

Huang Baoguo smiled a bit restrainedly:

"I feel that having these steamed buns and porridge to eat is already very good, hehehe..."

Er Gangzi also said a bit restrainedly:

"Yeah, these steamed buns are really delicious, I just feel that eating steamed buns without dishes is fine, hehehe..."

After finishing speaking, Er Gangzi also gave a few dry laughs a bit embarrassedly.

Wang An felt that when he was reborn, the life at home was already miserable enough; every meal, besides boiled sweet potatoes, boiled potatoes, and boiled squash, was just cornmeal steamed buns that scratched the throat, and for a long time, he couldn't see any meat.

But when Wang An witnessed the displaced people who couldn't even get a full set of clothes and spent their days living on wild vegetables and mushrooms, Wang An realized that compared to the displaced people, his family's life at that time was already quite good.

At the very least, although his family didn't eat well at that time, and it could be said to be very poor, what they ate was solid grain.

One must know that eating wild vegetables and mushrooms to satisfy hunger, and eating grain to satisfy hunger, are completely two different concepts!

But now, hearing Huang Baoguo and the others say "eating just steamed buns is fine," Wang An still didn't know what to say.

Because it must be admitted that the displaced people in Weizigou were all very hardworking and not lazy at all, but they couldn't get enough to eat; you tell me, who can you reason with about this?

At this time, Liu Guilan interjected:

"If the steamed buns are delicious, eat more; I steamed two large pots this morning, and don't leave the beef bones either, eating meat keeps you full."

As she spoke, Liu Guilan greeted Wang Dazhu:

"Dazhu, you're close, pick some fish for them too..."

It must be said that Huang Baoguo, his son, and Er Gangzi could really eat, even more than when Wang An was reborn; for the two-tael steamed buns, the two of them each ate seven or eight, and each ate two or three bowls of large-grain porridge.

And this didn't count the beef bones and fish meat that Wang An and Wang Dazhu picked for them.

However, Wang An believed that they only needed to eat at Wang An's house for two or three days, and the appetite of the three would drop, because as long as a person has oil and water in their stomach, they can't eat too much.

After breakfast, Wang Dazhu drove the four-wheeled cart, Wang An drove the walking tractor, and a large group of people walked toward the wheat field.

Thanks to "Large Empire Emperor" for the reward, thank you, thank you!
