A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 52 52. Adding Oil to the Fire
"Changning, we will bring you the basket and earthen jar back tonight. You are not in good health, so go back and rest well. By the way, let me tell your mother, we will work hard today and try to cut all the bamboo we need, so we don't have to go up the mountain tomorrow. .”

Boss Xin suppressed the anger in his heart. Seeing Xin Changning's ignorance, he hated Xin Jiugu's deeds even more.

"I know, uncle, you've worked hard." Xin Changning smiled obediently, and sat on the side while watching everyone eat with a smile. I thought of an idea.

She deliberately raised her hand to cover her stomach, looked at the food enviously, and licked her lips from time to time.

"Changning, haven't you eaten yet!" Boss Xin quickly found out, and immediately took a steamed bun and stuffed it in Xin Changning's hand.

"You eat, I'll get it when I go home." Xin Changning shook his head, watched the steamed bun swallowed, but refused to take it.

In this way, Boss Xin was even more sure that she hadn't eaten lunch, and quickly persuaded: "There are enough steamed buns. We are almost full. You should also eat some. Don't starve."

"Uncle Xie!" Xin Changning took the steamed bun, carefully tore off a piece, then pinched it in his hand, lightly dipped some of the braised pork juice, and stuffed it into his mouth with joy in his eyes, showing a satisfied smile,

"Changning, eat meat with chopsticks, don't just dip it in sauce!"

Boss Xin reminded immediately.

"No, mother said meat is expensive, you have to work hard, so I have to save it for you to eat." Xin Changning pretended to be very sensible and said: "It's okay, I'll just dip it in some juice."

People's hearts are fleshy. Hearing such words, seeing Xin Changning's tattered dress, and his thin and wind-blown body, Boss Xin's eyes turned red.

He quickly pushed the meat plate in front of Xin Changning, and said repeatedly: "Eat, good boy, this is made by your mother, you should eat it."

"Uncle, I, I have a small appetite. I'm full. I'm going home first." Xin Changning immediately got up in panic, clutching the unfinished steamed buns, and ran away in three steps at a time.

"Father, uncle—"

Looking at her back and thinking about what Aunt Xin had done, they couldn't eat anymore.

"Don't say anything, just work hard."

Boss Xin's heart suddenly felt as if it had been bombarded, and many things that had been endured for a long time all surged up.

After eating and drinking enough, he led his nephews to work hard, almost without rest all afternoon, and he cut down all the bamboos he needed in time for dinner. Fortunately, he went down the mountain.

Liu Shi and Xin Changning had already prepared dinner, and Liu Shi was also a real person, knowing that he should cook the food well without spending money on hiring people, so he cooked it with extra care.

Although the rice is mixed with millet, it is neither dry nor hard, and the taste is just right.

The soup cooked with eggs and wild vegetables was delicious. There was no big piece of braised pork like at noon, but a plate of boiled pork slices, hot and delicious, plus a vinegar potato shreds, refreshing and appetizing.

In the afternoon, Yang Yulan sent some mushrooms over, and Xin Changning instructed Liu to make a rice crust.

In front of everyone, pour the thick white soup mixed with mushroom meat granules on the freshly shoveled golden rice crust. With the sound of sizzling, the fragrance curls out with the heat... The brothers who provoked it Almost got into a fight to grab food.

"Fifth Aunt, Chang Ning, we'll come over early tomorrow morning, don't worry, I'll keep the fence for you to make it the strongest, if you have any requests, just ask."

The boys were all smiles, and they were willing to work more from the bottom of their hearts.

Boss Xin didn't stay for dinner, he declined Mrs. Liu's request to stay, and went home angrily.
