49 Xie Heng Dislike Buns
Guangqing Province was located in the south, and the staple food of the people here was rice.
Occasionally, stead buns and such could be purchased from the markets or bazaar to satisfy their cravings, but they are not usually consud on a daily basis.
When they saw Zhao Chuchu bring out the steaming buns, white and fluffy, the people who ca to work couldn’t help but swallow hard as they felt the pangs of hunger.
“Village Chief, co and help . I made these with quite so effort, so if you guys don’t eat them, we won’t be able to finish all this food.” Zhao Chuchu appeared as if she was struggling to bring the plates out
!!
Niu Tongsheng quickly put down what he was working on and stepped forward to help.
“Didn’t you say you don’t have enough money? Why did you buy so much then?” Niu Tongsheng chided her in a low voice. “Other people will think you are deliberately shorting them on labor!”
“I have a way to earn more money. You guys worked hard, and you have to have enough to eat, am I right?” Zhao Chuchu said with a smile. “There are more in the kitchen. Help bring them out. I’m not that good at cooking, and this is all I can manage for now. I hope they are adequate.”
“Girl, you…”
When Niu Tongsheng saw that Zhao Chuchu was so straightforward, the remaining grudges in his heart also disappeared.
The family she ca from was far from ideal, and her husband’s family was too poor. If she didn’t find a way to stand up for herself, there really was indeed no way for her to live!
“Everyone, co over to eat first. I’ll go find Junjun.” With these words, Zhao Chuchu left to find Xie Jun, who was still playing outside.
When everyone saw this, they turned to look at each other.
Finally, Niu Tongsheng said, “Chuchu ans well, co and eat. We will build the wall early tomorrow morning.”
This ti everyone put down what they were doing and went to help bring Xie Heng out of his room.
Xie Heng couldn’t help but sigh when he saw those white stead buns.
He really didn’t like to eat them.
The way Zhao Chuchu cooked now would starve him to death.
On the other hand, Xie Jun was quite happy to see that those stead buns were on the table again.
On the one hand, everyone heard that Zhao Chuchu had broken the legs of the people from the Zhao clan, so they did not dare to take the food for fear that Zhao Chuchu would not be pleased. On the other hand, most of them wanted to save so to take back for their children to eat at ho, so they beca very awkward and restrained.
Zhao Chuchu figured out what they were thinking and proceeded to divide the stead buns equally according to the number of people around the table.
Everyone was surprised.
“Alright, now it’s up to you to eat it or not.” Zhao Chuchu said. “But don’t worry, although I’m not very good at cooking, I promise you won’t be poisoned by eating the food I made.”
Niu Tongsheng sighed. “There is no one who acts like you in this village.”
Most people would prefer the help without having to feed them so as to save food for themselves.
Zhao Chuchu was different. If the help didn’t dare to eat her food, she just went ahead and divided them up anyway.
Zhao Chuchu winked. “After eating my food, you won’t dare to be lazy when you work.”
Everyone laughed.
“It’s late. Please return to your hos. I still have so chores to do, and the work will not be done for a while. See you tomorrow.”
“Alright, we’ll take our leave then.”
All of them wanted to take the food back to their children while it was hot, so Zhao Chuchu’s suggestion was music to their ears.
After everyone left, Zhao Chuchu cleaned up a bit and went inside the kitchen.
Xie Jun saw that Xie Heng was eating a stead bun very slowly, and there was still more than half of it left, so he asked, “Brother, can’t you eat anymore? Do you want to help you eat it?”
Xie Heng imdiately handed the stead bun to Xie Jun as if it was so kind of poison.
Xie Jun was so happy he finished eating the bun in three bites.
Zhao Chuchu heard the sound from inside the kitchen and couldn’t help but chuckle.
She realized that Xie Heng really didn’t like anything that was not rice.
This was a difficult thing for her. Besides stead buns, there were also noodles!
After all, under the circumstances, only these items would not cause too many suspicions.
As for at, she was a little sorry that she could only eat them alone!
