Fat Niang makes a fortune in farming

Chapter 214
After taking the menu and roughly calculating the dishes and ingredients that should be ordered for the seven tables, Meng Kejun and Maisui Nierniang went to the vegetable market with two baskets each.

First, I went to Zhu Biaosan's butcher's shop to order the meat I wanted, then went to Nier's house boat, and ordered the remaining big silver carp in her cabin, and finally went to the vegetable market to buy meat. leftover dish.

When Meng Kejun and the others returned to Sun's house with two large baskets of vegetables, the courtyard of Sun's house was already filled with borrowed tables and chairs.In the kitchen, the borrowed bowls and chopsticks were also packed in big baskets and boxes.

Meng Kejun didn't dare to have a moment's rest, this was the first time she made a big pot of rice here, and she must do her best to do it well.

Maisui and Nierniang didn't dare to be negligent, and they did everything extremely seriously and carefully.

"Both sisters-in-law, have a cup of tea and rest! I haven't seen you two stop this morning!"

The tired Meng Kejun poured two cups of tea and walked to Maisui and Nierniang who were squatting on the ground to choose and wash vegetables.

Maisui immediately flicked the water from his hand, and took the teacup in Meng Kejun's hand, "Kejun, to tell you the truth, I really like going out to do things with you, although I kept busy, I don't know why, just The harder I work, the more vigorous I feel, as if my whole body has endless strength.”

Today's job is the most fun that Maisui has done in a long time, and she doesn't know what's going on.

"Yes! Yes! I feel the same way. I feel that my whole body is full of strength." Nierniang on the side also nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Maisui's words, "But sister Jun, you will have to work like this in the future. Take care of us! No matter how little the wages are, I am willing to work with you."

"Me too, me too! If you want to have such a job in the future, you must not forget me!"

This is the happiest time Meng Kejun has seen Maisui and Nierniang smile for such a long time.

Meng Kejun felt that the reason why they were as energetic as they said, and they worked harder and harder was because they had left the home that weighed them down.

The three women who were sweating profusely in the kitchen actually attracted the neighbors of the Sun family to watch.

"It's the first time I've seen this woman cook a big pot of rice!"

"Me too! I heard from Dapeng that the cook is the youngest one!"

Some neighbors came purely to watch the fun, and some didn't want women to show their faces outside like this, so they came here to be sarcastic and sarcastic to Meng Kejun and the others.

"Look, all of them have their shoulders rolled up, their buttons unbuttoned, and their hair disheveled."

Some women talked about wheat ears and the sleeves they rolled up, and they unbuttoned their necks because of the heat.

"That's right! If you don't stay at home, you have to show your face and compete with men for jobs. The men in the family don't even discipline them properly!"

"What is discipline! Some people want a man to take care of them, but there must be a man in the family! Otherwise, how could they not be able to bear the loneliness and come to grab a man's job in public!"

Someone recognized Nierniang and knew that her man was missing.

After hearing her words, the other harsh women all followed suit and laughed.

As soon as this person said the words, Maisui and Nierniang's expressions immediately turned ugly. In their lives, what they hated the most was this kind of woman who likes to gossip.

They are willing to turn right and wrong in everything. It stands to reason that women like Nierniang and Maisui, who have lost their men, come out to support themselves and support their families. It is commendable, but from what they say, this is gone Men are a disgrace.

Holding the teacup in his hand, Meng Kejun walked to the door, and directly threw the teacup in his hand at them viciously.

"Hey! What are you doing?"

The woman who was splashed all over immediately yelled at Meng Kejun with her hands on her hips.

"I'm hitting a fly!"

Meng Kejun said with a smile, and then filled the teacup in his hand again.

"Early in the morning, there was a group of nasty blowflies buzzing here. It's so annoying! If you have the energy to point fingers here and say that, don't hurry back and tie yourself to your man's pants. Belt, save you if you take a man, you won’t be able to live.”

After finishing speaking, Meng Kejun poured the tea from the cup in his hand at them again.

"Also, we rely on our own ability to eat. Those men who have been robbed of their jobs by us can only say that they have no ability."

"You crazy bitch!"

"I'm going to die! My clothes are all wet!"

"Oh! We've been quarreling. I heard you arguing here early in the morning. You should go home quickly. Every family has a lot of work!" Aunt Sun, who had been sitting in the yard, rushed over immediately. .

The women blocking the door all dispersed in a swarm of yelling.

"But sister Jun, you still have the ability. If I listen to these gossips, I will stare at them at most and then leave. I don't have the courage to argue with them. I am afraid that I will meet them in the future. From their I heard worse words from my mouth."

"Yes! Yes! So, I can only grit my teeth and swallow my tears." Nierniang was deeply touched by what Maisui said.

Meng Kejun also understands their difficulties, but also admires their strength.

"In the future, when you meet these gossiping people, you can tell them directly, and make sure they don't dare to make irresponsible remarks in front of you in the future."

"I think today's work is almost done. Let's go back early and come over early tomorrow morning, and prepare all the seven tables of dishes for it before lunch."

Meng Kejun took a look, and she has already prepared all the dishes that need to go through a process, such as frying, steaming and cooking. She has already done the washing and cutting, and the wheat ears and nierniang are also done.

After leaving Sun Dapeng's house, Meng Kejun rushed home non-stop, wanting to see if Dong Qingfeng had returned.

But as soon as he entered the courtyard and saw the two faces sitting under the eaves looking forward to it, Meng Kejun's heart immediately fell to the bottom.

"It's been a day and a night. Why is there no news yet?"

In the end, Mrs. Huang couldn't sit still anymore. She put down the needlework that she hadn't moved all day, stood up, and walked directly to the gate of the courtyard.

Dong Jingye, who was behind her, also immediately put down the unwoven bamboo basket that he had been holding, and followed Huang to the gate of the courtyard.

"Why don't I go to the mountains to have a look!"

Meng Kejun told the two old people who walked to the gate of the courtyard that in fact, on the way back, she had thought about going to the mountain to have a look, but was held back by the ears of wheat.She said that Bie Qingfeng had already returned, and she was still looking around on the mountain alone.

At the beginning, she was still full of confidence on the way, thinking that she would see Dong Qingfeng as soon as she entered the door, but now, her heart was so tense again that she couldn't even breathe.

"But sir, don't worry, with Qingfeng's skill, let alone a tiger, it is more than enough to deal with wolves."

Dong Jingye's words were to comfort Meng Kejun and himself.
