Chapter 1124

After talking about selling horses, the family chatted for a while, and Wang Li's family of four came. Immediately after, Shen Wei and Zhao Cuiyun also came with their children respectively.

When everyone ate the shabu-shabu fish meat and gnawed on the cow bones, they naturally praised Wang An a lot.

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

A lively dinner, everyone ate until they were full.

Of course, drinking is an adult's business; the children drank soda.

After dinner, Shen Wei and Zhao Cuiyun, as well as Second Aunt Yao Ping, helped clean up the mess after eating, and everyone went home to rest.

It must be said, the cow bones and cow innards Wang An stewed were truly quite decent.

Because although the meat on the bones wasn't stewed to the point of falling off with a light touch, and it was still very tough to chew, it wasn't to the point where it was still like Mu Xueqing's, needing a knife to scrape the meat off to eat.

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

In short, everyone was very satisfied.

The night passed without a word, and 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 Huang Li and Huang Zhong, the sister and brother, and that person named Er Gangzi, appeared at the gate of Wang An's house.

It must be said, these four people came truly early; I don't know if they left 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.

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

"Uncle Huang, Uncle Gangzi, you guys came early enough. You left home before dawn, right?"

Huang Baoguo smiled a bit shyly:

"Yeah, it's because I'm afraid of delaying work, so I came over early. Hehehe..."

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

Wang An smiled:

"Come into the house, come into the house; it's almost time to eat."

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

As soon as they entered the courtyard and saw the brick-and-tile main house, side rooms, and various livestock pens in Wang An's house, as well as the crawler tractor, four-wheeled cart, and hand-guided tractor parked in the courtyard—agricultural machinery rarely seen in this era—Huang Baoguo and Er Gangzi immediately became even more constrained.

No way, the visual impact of the buildings and agricultural vehicles in Wang An's courtyard could instantly make many people feel ashamed or inferior.

Seeing the herds of plum deer, wild boars, roe deer, and yellow sheep in Wang An's house, and the pile of heads of mules, horses, and donkeys leaking out of the stable, the two's eyes weren't enough.

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

Without exaggeration, even in later generations, the vast majority of rural families couldn't reach the conditions of Wang An's family.

Without explaining anything to the two, Wang An led the four into the house all the way. Immediately after, Wang Dazhu entertained Huang Baoguo, his son, and Er Gangzi. As for Huang Li, she had already proactively gone to the back room to help Liu Guilan with work.

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

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

Seeing breakfast on the table, Huang Baoguo, his son, and Er Gangzi insisted on holding their bowls and eating by the stove, but they were rejected by Wang An's family. Mainly, 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. How could they let guests squat by the stove to eat?

Breakfast was still two-mixed-flour steamed buns and big-slag porridge. As for the dishes, besides pickled cucumbers, pickled green peppers, and garlic eggplants, there were also leftover cow bones and stewed fish from last night.

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

Consequently, Wang An reached out directly, took 3 of the largest cow bones, and put 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? Let me tell you, when you come here, don't be polite; just treat it as your own home. Eat and drink as you should; our family doesn't have so many things."

After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Dazhu said:

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

Huang Baoguo smiled constrainedly:

"I feel like it's great to have these buns and porridge to eat. Hehehe..."

Er Gangzi also said constrainedly:

"Yeah, these buns are truly delicious; I feel like I can eat them without dishes. Hehehe..."

After speaking, Er Gangzi also gave a few awkward dry laughs.

Wang An felt that when he was reborn, his family's life was already miserable enough; every meal, besides steamed sweet potatoes, steamed potatoes, steamed pumpkins, it was damn throat-stinging cornmeal pancakes, and he couldn't see meat for a long time.

But when Wang An saw that the drifters couldn't even get a full set of clothes and spent their days on wild vegetables and mushrooms, Wang An knew that compared to the drifters, 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, it could be said to be very poor, but what they ate was solid grain.

You have to know that eating wild vegetables and mushrooms to fill your stomach and eating grain to fill your stomach are two completely different concepts!

But when Wang An heard Huang Baoguo and the other say "it's great to just eat buns," Wang An still didn't know what to say.

Because it must be admitted that the drifters in Weizigou are all very hardworking and not lazy at all, but they can't eat their fill. You say, who can you reason with about this?

At this time, Liu Guilan interrupted:

"If the buns are delicious, eat more; I steamed two big pots this morning. And don't leave the cow bones; eating meat is filling."

As she spoke, Liu Guilan called out to Wang Dazhu again:

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

It must be said, Huang Baoguo, his son, and Er Gangzi could truly eat, even more than when Wang An was reborn. The two-liang buns, the two of them each ate seven or eight, and each ate two or three bowls of big-slag porridge.

And this didn't count the cow bones and fish meat that Wang An and Wang Dazhu gave them.

However, Wang An believed that after eating at Wang An's house for two or three days, the appetite of the three would drop, because as long as people have oil in their stomachs, they can't eat too much.

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

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