Chapter 297 Not enough to eat
At the table, Tianxin's wife also had a sullen face and whispered to her eldest sister-in-law Cui:
"Sister-in-law, look at the food on the table. It's worse than what we usually eat! Isn't this just plain stew?
What a waste of our gift! I brought him a pound of fine grain!"
As he spoke, he thought of the piece of smoked meat that Cui had brought with her, and felt even more sorry for her.
"That smoked meat of yours is a complete waste! Oh, this Third Lu is really stingy!"
Cui also looked down upon the dish in front of her, but her years of self-cultivation prevented her from expressing her disdain to its face. She just smiled and passed the conversation on.
When Tianxin's wife saw this, she had to swallow the rest of her words.
Soon, Lu Laosan led Sun Cui into the house.
Seeing this, the old village chief stood up and walked to Lu Laosan.
"Today is the day when the third brother and his wife are getting married.
Third brother, please introduce your wife to everyone."
Lu Lao San looked at Sun Cui beside him and said to everyone:
"This is Sun Cui, her hometown is Sunjia Village near Pingtong County."
Everyone looked at the two of them.
Lu Laosan was wearing a dark, bulky jacket with many patches on it.
He was still wearing the same coat as usual, the only difference was that his hair was more neatly combed.
Sun Cui next to him was also wearing a tattered jacket.
The only thing was that the shoes on his feet were newer, but much larger, like the ones Lu Lao San had worn before.
There was no ceremony today. If there was any difference from before, it was that both of them were in good condition.
Not only was Lu Laosan not as depressed as before, but Sun Cui was also not as weak as when she was first bought.
After the old village chief heard what he said, he took the two of them and started introducing the people at the table.
The old village chief introduced someone, and Sun Cui followed suit and called for people.
Soon, it was Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang's turn.
When the old village chief introduced that this was Lu Laosan's niece and nephew-in-law, Sun Cui's attention immediately shifted to Lu Qingqing.
This niece is the one closest to her husband among all these people, so she must be on guard against her.
However, after Sun Cui looked her up and down, she found that her niece was different from the villagers in terms of her clothes, figure and temperament.
Her hair was not styled like a girl's, but was tied up like a boy's, looking neat and tidy.
Her face and hands were washed clean, unlike ordinary village girls.
The thick coat on his body is almost 80% new and looks very warm.
Sun Cui was secretly shocked. It seemed that this girl's life was better than hers as the head of the household.
When she turned sideways, she could see that she was wearing fur boots.
This thing is not something that the villagers can easily get.
Most people who can afford fur boots are rich.
But the strange thing is that she already had a husband before she reached the age of marriage.
Although the husband looked tall and strong, he did not look smart, but his clothes were no worse than his niece's.
After observing for a while, although there were some doubts, Sun Cui still came to a conclusion.
The good news is that she won't have to worry about her niece clinging to her and sucking her blood anymore.
At the same time, there was also bad news: the niece was not very enthusiastic about them either.
If a relative with money and food could help them more, her family would live a better life.
Lu Qingqing pulled Qin Lang and called people according to the old village chief's introduction.
After everyone had finished shouting, they began to eat.
Sun Cui sat at the table next to Lu Qingqing and started eating voraciously.
She aimed her chopsticks at the stewed dried vegetables with a little oil in the middle of the table.
During this time, the chopsticks touched other people's chopsticks, but he didn't stop at all.
She didn't care much about the opinions of people around her, she was just concerned about filling her stomach.
When she ate with Lu Lao San before, she was afraid that she would be disliked, so she didn’t dare to eat too much.
Nowadays, when it comes to a big banquet, there are no more concerns.
On the table, except for the steamed buns which were served according to the number of people, she took a lot of the other dishes.
There is a fixed amount of food on the table. If she eats more, the others will eat less.
Although everyone had enough food at home, it was still uncomfortable to come to the banquet but not be able to eat enough.
By the time all the plates on the table were cleared, the group was only half full.
Only Sun Cui burped, and after that she smiled and asked everyone to eat and drink.
The women at the table all looked a little embarrassed, but they didn't know what to say.
When the party was over, only the old village chief's wife helped to clean up the table, and the rest of the people left directly.
......
When he returned to his room, Qin Lang pulled Lu Qingqing's sleeve and said a little aggrievedly:
"Daya, I'm not full. Let's go in and eat something more."
Lu Qingqing was not full either, so she nodded immediately after hearing this.
"Go and block the door. Let's finish eating quickly and then come out."
The two entered the space and went straight to the cooked food storage area.
Lu Qingqing took a plate and filled it with a small dish of braised pork, a small dish of stir-fried rabbit meat, and a serving of stir-fried potatoes with tomatoes.
Qin Lang took out a few of the large white flour steamed buns and red date steamed buns that he had made earlier.
Putting the plates on the table, the two began to devour their food.
I just ate some vegetables, and now the meat tastes especially delicious.
Lu Qingqing ate a big steamed bun and half a date steamed bun, and she couldn't eat anymore.
Qin Lang still seemed to have a good appetite.
By the end of the meal, the plates were wiped clean.
Lu Qingqing used her mind to look outside the space, and seeing that no one was coming, she started feeding the livestock again.
From the moment they entered the space, the cries of various livestock could be heard one after another.
If she hadn't had such a strong desire to eat meat, she would have been unable to resist and would have gone to feed the livestock first.
A few days ago, Lu Qingqing discovered that after feeding them space water, these animals became somewhat familiar.
Every time they came in, various animals made noises trying to get them to pass.
If it weren't for the barriers blocking the various areas, they would have been eager to come over immediately.
The livestock in the space, except for cows, horses and turtles, are all raised for food.
They are too close to her and Qin Lang can't bring himself to kill them.
Therefore, these days, she basically stopped feeding space water and only used the most basic food and grass to feed.
Since everything is fine now, just feed it again.
Start feeding the cows and horses at the edge, with barriers separating the cattle and horse pens.
The horses are usually raised in the herd, and now there is a leader horse in the whole herd.
A few days ago, Qin Lang discovered that the bellies of two mares had become much bigger.
The two men guessed that there might be foals, so they fed the two mares some more delicious food.
If there really is a foal, and more foals are born in the future, the horse herd will become even larger.
Horses are still hard to buy these days.
Throughout the country, except for a few places that can raise horses, most horses are bought from outside.
