Chapter 356: Classmates are here!

~7 min read 1,391 words

Hoping and hoping, the old classmates finally came.

Everyone had discussed the route last night. Those without cars hitched a ride, and those with cars drove directly over.

Now, as the sun rose, they drove over in droves following the navigation. As soon as they walked on the road, many people were dizzy from the bumps of the winding mountain road.

To be honest, there were people who regretted it on the way, but it was still the old saying—they were already here. They couldn't turn back halfway, right?

Therefore, following the navigation, they finally drove to the door of Song Tan's house.

As soon as they got out of the car, everyone's eyes widened—

"Holy crap!"

"Song Tan, you are really hiding your true strength!"

Just look at this big villa, no one else has it! Even if it's built in the countryside, it's cheaper than buying a commercial house, but how can this whole set not cost 7 figures?

Just for this, Wu Qianqian still said she wanted to donate money?

Who is donating to whom?

Everyone's resentful eyes were thrown over, and Wu Qianqian panicked for a moment—well, she clearly remembered that Song Tan's family was very poor when they were in school!

And since her family has a villa, why does she still have to sell vegetables herself?

Are rich families all so self-improving?

The car stopped on the open space in front of the door. Song Tan thought for a while and directed everyone to leave half the space: "Come on, park the cars elsewhere, we need to occupy a little space to dry rice later."

"Okay, okay."

Seeing this big villa, everyone who had complaints felt that the trip was worth it, so naturally they did whatever she said.

Then they couldn't wait to look at the three-story building in the courtyard and asked: "Can we go in and visit?"

"Of course." Song Tan laughed: "You have a big face. We haven't planned to move in yet. When my mom heard that my old classmates were coming, she was afraid that Grandpa's old house would be a bit crowded, so she urged us to clean this place up in a hurry."

"But it's going to be hot soon. Shall we work first and visit when we come back to rest at noon?"

"Don't be polite, sit anywhere inside or outside the house, it's just to welcome you."

Look at how polite this old classmate is...

Everyone felt a bit embarrassed.

Wu Lan checked the time in the house. Tan Tan was right. It was already 8:15. Harvesting rice, really can't count on them.

She remembered her daughter's penniless appearance, and at this moment she laughed honestly and simply:

"Did you get up early to come here? Have you eaten? The family has made some food, let's eat a little together."

This question was asked at the right time.

It's a holiday, who doesn't sleep in? Some have eaten, some woke up too early and didn't have time to eat.

Just as they were about to be polite, they saw Song Tan's mother say embarrassedly: "These are simple meals, don't dislike them, they are all our own things..."

Having said that, everyone was embarrassed to refuse.

Song Tan wasn't polite to them either: "Come, come, come, specially prepared disposable bowls and chopsticks, everyone take what you want in the kitchen, serve it yourself."

"In the pot is locust tree flower porridge. If you want sugar, add it yourself. On the side are pickled sour cowpeas, as well as scallion flower rolls, green pepper rolls. The green pepper sauce is my own, the scallions for the scallion flower rolls are my own, the locust tree flowers were picked in the mountains in early spring, and the sour cowpeas were also pickled by ourselves this year, just made..."

Not to mention, they were all very ordinary things, but after reporting the names of the dishes like this, who wouldn't be greedy?

Everyone looked into the spacious kitchen and was immediately shocked by the air conditioner that was still blowing—

That is to say, installing air conditioning in the kitchen, what a luxurious life!

Smelling the smell of burning firewood in the air, and the fragrance of various foods, I don't know whose stomach growled first.

Afterwards, the old classmates and their families were not polite and rushed in directly:

"So fragrant! I haven't eaten such authentic things for many years, I must taste them one by one!"

"This scallion flower roll is too domineering! I must eat a flower roll first!"

"Green pepper sauce roll... oh my, didn't you smell this chili flavor? This is too authentic!"

Everyone yelled, but their movements were orderly. Not long after, the pot was almost empty.

Seventh Cousin sat in the courtyard, feeling more and more proud that his craftsmanship was so popular.

And Song Tan took the opportunity to count the number of people—29.

"Are you all here?"

"All here."

The class monitor put the warm porridge aside, ignoring the old classmates who were taking pictures and posting on Moments, and took a bite of the chili roll with an "ah woo" sound, and was immediately stimulated to sweat.

While puffing out her cheeks and saying vaguely: "Chen Xiaoling and her family have something to do today and can't come..."

Song Tan looked around: "Class monitor, didn't you say you were bringing children to experience life?"

Counting it all up, there were only two or three children aged three or five who could experience it in the fields. The rest were pushing strollers, and there were two children aged seven or eight... it seemed like someone's relative's child.

Strollers can't be pushed into the fields, right?

The class monitor smiled embarrassedly: "Look... mainly everyone wants to eat farm food, and take the opportunity to gather and play... children... it's also okay to cultivate feelings for the countryside from childhood."

Song Tan:......

Looking at the middle-aged people in the team who were obviously the classmates' parents or parents-in-law, and looking at everyone whose living standards didn't seem too bad now, she also laughed.

Looking at the class monitor again, the roll in his hand was almost finished, so she hurriedly asked: "Do you want two more scallion flower rolls? They are especially fragrant!"

Boiling a big pot of white rice porridge doesn't cost much, and the locust tree flowers were blanched and frozen in the spring, so it was gone all of a sudden.

The rolls were made by Seventh Cousin himself. He made a big stack, froze them in the refrigerator, and made them whenever he wanted to eat.

The chili sauce is pure chili sauce, without beef. Not to mention the scallion flower rolls, it only costs a few cents for oil, and it doesn't take many scallions.

Calculated, even at the market price of their own things, the breakfast for these 29 people didn't exceed 200 yuan—the most expensive were the chili sauce and sour cowpeas!

Song Tan was basically satisfied with her little scheme.

Everyone else was also very satisfied, even pleasantly surprised. They were eating without even lifting their heads; those who had already eaten breakfast couldn't resist grabbing a flower roll, regretting it as they ate...

She was secretly happy in her heart, then said loudly: "Right, it's settled that I'm treating everyone to a meal at noon. Do any of you have any dietary restrictions? If not, I'll just make something with the vegetables from our own garden—there aren't any big fish or meat dishes, so please don't mind."

As soon as she said this, everyone nodded hurriedly despite their mouths being stuffed full: "Please, definitely don't bother with any big fish or meat!"

This isn't the past, where one couldn't easily afford those things?

"Just your family's vegetables—I've never eaten anything this delicious in my entire life!"

"That's right, Song Tan, no wonder your watermelons sell for 20 yuan a jin. It's worth it, truly worth it!"

As they spoke, they swallowed their bitter tears. It was worth it, but they were truly broke—they couldn't afford this stuff!
