When Wei Zhi and the guard walked out of the window, they saw two children standing in front of the teacher with their heads down, listening to the training, and they couldn't help but stop.
Mr. Zhuang scolded them, and said: "Okay, let's go eat, review homework after eating, and take a nap after eating."
The two children bowed their heads in response, and then sat back in their seats to eat.
Mr. Zhuang's meals are cooked separately, similar to their dishes, but the rice and dishes are served separately.
Mr. Zhuang also sat back in his seat, and when he looked up, he saw two people standing outside the window. He was slightly startled, and quickly got up to welcome them out.
Wei Zhi smiled slightly, and walked to the door to salute, "I'm next to Julu Wei Zhi, please forgive me for visiting rashly."
At this time, Wei Zhi was also dressed as a scholar, Mr. Zhuang naturally welcomed him, and greeted him with a smile, "The shabby room is cold, Mr. Wei doesn't mind."
He asked Wei Zhi to sit down, looked at Man Bao and Shan Bao, and said, "Go to the kitchen and get another pair of bowls and chopsticks."
Bai Shanbao had already recognized Wei Zhi, dragged Man Bao to his feet, saluted, and ran to the kitchen to get the dishes.
Xiaoqian never left any leftover rice, and if there was any excess, he would either distribute it to the students who were not full, or use the leftovers to cook a pot of very thin porridge, so that the children could drink some soup in the afternoon.
After all, it's hot summer, and the kids will be thirsty after a nap and a lesson.
She only knows how to eat crispy rice. Therefore, not only the Bai family, but also the parents of other students are very satisfied with her. Naturally, there is no extra rice in the cooking pot at this time.
But when he heard that Mr. Zhuang had guests, Xiaoqian thought for a while and sent the two children back, saying: "I'll make two more vegetables and bake a few cakes, and I'll send them to you later, you go back to eat first."
There were no more green vegetables in the kitchen, so I had to go back to the vegetable garden to pick them. Little Qian woke up first, and then wiped his hands to pick vegetables.
She was always fast and methodical.
After the vegetables are washed and cooked here, the cakes are made there, and when the cakes are baked, the vegetables are also cooked.
Although I am not concentrating on making a dish, it tastes good.
Only then did Xiaoqian deliver the cakes and vegetables to Mr. Zhuang and the others.
Man Bao and the others were squatting in the yard to eat and boil water by the way.
Little Qian took a look at them, and after sending in the cakes and meals, he quickly came out and walked to the two children, "What are you doing?"
Man Bao had cleaned the last bit of rice from the bottom of the bowl, and after confirming that there was not a single grain of rice left in the bowl, he raised his face and said, "Boil water and make tea."
Bai Shanbao ate slower, but faster than when he was at home. He nodded when he heard the words, but he couldn't talk when he had food in his mouth.
Xiaoqian glanced at Huo and asked, "Do you want me to help you?"
Man Bao shook his head, "No need, we can do it, sister-in-law, go back and rest."
Wei Zhi's ears were sharp, and when he heard it, he couldn't help turning his head to look outside, and asked, "Is the cook lady Zhou's sister-in-law?"
Mr. Zhuang nodded, and looked at Wei Zhi suspiciously, "What?"
Wei Zhi smiled, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'm just curious, why would Mr. Zhuang want to accept a female disciple?"
Mr. Zhuang said: "There is no distinction between male and female disciples, Zhuang accepts his disciples based on fate."
Wei Zhi nodded, "But I think this little lady must have something outstanding? Yesterday at Brother Bai's house, I often heard people praise her for being smart."
Mr. Zhuang smiled and said, "This kid is very smart, and he is also filial and caring."
So my young disciples are not only talented, but also moral.
Man Bao and the others made tea, poured it and served it up, even the guard sitting behind Wei Zhi had a bowl.
The guard held the hot tea and didn't really want to drink it. On a hot day, he prefers to drink water, especially boiled water that has been cooled.
But Man Bao didn't have the ability to read minds, so he didn't know what he was thinking, and he insisted that the people who came to the door were all customers, so he forcefully stuffed him with a bowl of tea.
Bai Shanbao brought tea to Mr. Zhuang and Wei Zhi, and then the two children returned to their seats and sat down, each holding a bamboo tube filled with boiled water and drinking with gusto.
The study is so big, and the four people are facing each other, so Wei Zhi can talk to them just by tilting his head.
He was not polite, so he beckoned the two children to his side, glanced at the bamboo tubes in their hands, and asked with a smile, "Why don't you drink tea?"
The tea is not good...
Of course, it is impossible for Man Bao and Bai Shanbao to say that, so they said: "We are children, so we cannot drink tea."
"Hey, why can't children drink tea?"
Man Bao said: "Because we are still young, we will not be able to fall asleep at night after drinking tea, and we will have to take a nap later."
It's not that they haven't drunk it before, of course, they drank it secretly, but the tea is not good at all, and they still don't want to sleep at night after drinking it.
They don't like to drink anymore.
Tea can refresh one's mind, of course Wei Zhi knew this, but when he saw the wrinkled little faces of the two children, he knew they had drank it, so he couldn't help but burst out laughing, and asked, "What do you like?" What to drink?"
Bai Shanbao said: "I like to drink sour plum soup."
Man Bao: "Me too."
Wei Zhi asked the two children to sit down and started talking with them. Mr. Zhuang sipped his tea leisurely and didn't stop him.
From drinking to eating, and from eating to planting.
Man Bao has been learning to work in the field since the second half of last year. Of course, she can't do much farm work, so she just passes some things or throws some things.
For example, when planting vegetables, Xiaoqian likes to bring Manbao's short stumps with him, and then let them pit each vegetable seedling down one by one, and they will be responsible for planting in the back.
But Manbao has a strong learning ability. Although she has never planted it herself, she knows how her sister-in-laws plant it. In addition, Datou and Daya are not young, and they will talk about some things when they are planting things at home. The important thing is to teach them, so that they can understand these planting skills when they grow up.
She doesn't know if the big head and big girl have learned it, but Man Bao has remembered it. Although she just memorized many things but didn't learn it, she can take it out and explain it to Wei Zhi.
The same is true for Bai Shanbao. Ever since he planted ginger, he has been very interested in growing some crops. In addition to communicating with Man Bao, he also communicates with the gardener at home.
He thinks yams are delicious, and is planning to ask Manbao for some seeds next year, and then plant some near the fence in the backyard, so that the vines can climb directly to the wall without building a shelf.
So the two children seemed to talk about farming with Wei Zhi, and they even talked about the crop situation in the village after the disaster.
After all, when County Magistrate Fu came, the two of them accompanied him all the way, and even heard the village head and the old people in the village cry poorly with County Magistrate Fu all the way.
Forget about Bai Shanbao, Man Bao often heard his father and brother talking about the field affairs at home. If you want to talk about what is the most talked about in the Zhou family, it is the field work.
