A night of love is worth a thousand gold. The wedding night of Li Huan and Cheng Qiao passed quietly in their sweetness. When it was slightly bright, Cheng Qiao got up and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.
The first breakfast must be prepared for the new bride when she enters the house. Cheng Qiao took out rice and cooked porridge. She also put a spoonful of lard and a little bit of salt in the porridge. This kind of porridge tasted extremely delicious.
She took out more than twenty large meat buns from the space and placed them in the steamer, steaming them slowly over low heat. This way she wouldn't have to knead the dough early in the morning. It wasn't that she was lazy, but her hands and feet were exhausted after being tormented by Li Huan last night.
Li Huan turned over in a daze, trying to hug Cheng Qiao, but found nothing. He was so scared that he woke up immediately, turned over and ran out. When he saw the familiar figure in the kitchen, he couldn't help but let out a breath.
"Wife, why are you up so early? The buns are already steamed. Did you get up in the dark?"
Cheng Qiao walked out of the kitchen door, looked around, and then a meat bun appeared in her hand. Li Huan knew in his heart that his wife was definitely a little fairy.
"Wife, you must be careful, otherwise if those black-hearted people see you, I won't be able to protect you."
Cheng Qiao nodded seriously. Li Huan could act like a rogue and fight fiercely in Xiangyang Village, but outside Xiangyang Village, there were many local tyrants and powerful people. It was impossible to deal with them.
Seeing Cheng Qiao nodding obediently, Li Huan felt like becoming stronger. His wife's secret was too big and too tempting. If he didn't have enough ability, he would definitely lose her.
"Wife, don't transform into anything unless it's absolutely necessary. Otherwise, I'm really afraid of losing you."
"good"
When the buns and hot porridge were served on the table, Li Le ran out in a hurry. Yesterday, the mother and daughter covered themselves with the quilt that Cheng Qiao brought back from the educated youth site. It was very warm and comfortable, but they actually overslept.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I overslept. You must be hungry. I'll go make some corn porridge for you."
"Le Le, go wash up quickly. It's time for us to have breakfast. Where's mom? Why hasn't she come out yet?"
"Mother said she was going to build a river channel today, so she left early."
"What? Li Huan, go to the village entrance and call mom back. You are so old, why are you still building a river?"
Li Huan's face darkened. He pushed his bicycle and rode towards the village entrance. However, when he arrived at the entrance, there was no sign of anyone. He probably had already gone to the county town.
Li Huan pedaled hard on his bicycle and sped towards the county town. The wheels spun rapidly, but Li Huan still felt it was too slow.
Li Huan, who was extremely anxious, finally saw a large group of people. Not only were there villagers from Xiangyang Village, but villagers from other villages were also gathered here.
"Mother..."
Li Huan began to look for her anxiously. When Li's mother saw Li Huan coming towards her, a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes. She didn't want to work so hard, but her daughter-in-law spent money lavishly. If she didn't earn more money, what would they do when they had children in the future
"Huan'er, go back. Mom will be back soon."
Li Huan said stubbornly, "Mom, if you dare to go, I will let these carts crush me to death. Let's see who has a more stubborn temper."
"this… "
Chen Weidang looked at Li Huan with a headache and wanted to punch him. It was obvious that he meant to be sympathetic and filial, but what came out of his mouth were always the words of a rogue, which was really a headache.
"Mother Li Huan, you'd better not go."
Chen Weidang saw Li Huan walking towards the flatbed truck and lying directly in front of the front of the truck. He could only persuade Li's mother to go back. Li's mother shook her head helplessly. Alas, it was not easy for her to sneak out.
"You idiot, you can ask Cheng Qiao to repair the river. It's twelve centimeters a day, and he also provides three meals. Why are you hiding at home at such a young age?"
"Xu Laidi, shut your stinky mouth. You've been touched by two men, and you still want to seduce me. You shameless bastard, why don't you just hang yourself up with a rope?"
Li Huan glared at Xu Laidi and said words that were sharper than a knife and more poisonous than arsenic. They made Xu Laidi really want to hang himself with a rope.
Chai Jianmin smiled. He suddenly realized that being a second-rate person was pretty good. At least he could act like a scoundrel and curse people without restraint, and no one would think there was anything wrong with it.
"Village chief, look at that second-rate guy. What is he saying? I won't live any longer."
Xu Laidi never thought that she would be abused so mercilessly by the second-rate guy just because she was jealous of Cheng Qiao, but she didn't dare to argue with the second-rate guy and could only cry to Chen Weidang.
"What do you mean by second-rate guy? He has a name, is that what you call him? And what Li Huan said is right, you Xu Laidi are just a slut. You are willing to be touched by a man just for a bite of food."
Chai Jianmin screamed at the top of his lungs, and his screams made the surroundings suddenly quiet. The people in the distance didn't hear what Li Huan said at first, but when they heard the word "slut", they looked over with shining eyes.
"Let's go check out where the broken shoes are."
"You are not allowed to go. Anyone who dares to leave the main force will not be allowed to go."
"What a pity, but it seems to be from Xiangyang Village. When did Xiangyang Village have a slut?"
"I don't know. I heard the three words Xu Lai Di. Could it be that the whore's name is Xu Lai Di?"
When Chen Weidang heard the words "there are sluts in Xiangyang Village", he was so angry that he took a deep breath and kept pressing his left chest with his right hand. Who can tell him how to punish these two ruffians
"Chai Jianmin, come out."
Chai Jianmin smiled and walked quickly to Chen Weidang. Chen Weidang took two steps back. In the morning light today, Chai Jianmin did not look as scary as he did last night, but the shadow in his heart was still not gone.
Chen Weidang pointed to a flatbed truck in front and motioned him to pull the truck. Chai Jianmin nodded and left. He was willing to pull the truck if it would ruin the reputation of this stinky woman.
As the saying goes, "Before the troops move out, the food and fodder must go first." Each village would arrange a dozen strong laborers to go ahead, pulling flatbed carts with bean grass, wheat straw, wooden sticks, and cooking utensils.
Chai Jianmin walked to the front of the first flatbed truck in Xiangyang Village and prepared to pull the truck. Unexpectedly, the men who were originally pulling the truck all stayed away from him. They still remembered the scary look of Chai Jianmin last night.
Chai Jianmin was very angry, but there was nothing he could do. He could only pull the cart forward by himself. Jiang Guangrong couldn't bear to watch it anymore. They were all from the same educated youth camp, so he had to help.
Once they reach the river, they will build a shed on a higher place by the river. This shed is also where the villagers live, so it must be built first.
A dozen people first dug a rectangular earth pit about one meter deep that could accommodate more than 20 people. Then, at the four corners of the pit, they used a wooden stick to support two triangles, and the two top ones were connected and tied together with a long wooden stick.
