514 Particular
Seeing that they had left, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan turned around and went to Xue Dagui’s house to make lunch.
Today, they had a very big fat-headed fish and were going to make fish head stew with chopped pepper.
It was a little troublesome to stew things.
Shiye waited for them to finish cooking half of the lunch before he went to the corridor to boil the medicine that Shao Shuting had to drink at noon.
When it was done, their food was also ready.
The steaming medicine was poured out of the medicine pot. It was estimated that after lunch, the medicine wouldn’t be hot anymore, and Shao Shuting could drink it.
Ever since they helped to make lunch, their grandfather had been having lunch here. They didn’t even need to specially call for him anymore because he would naturally make his way here. They quickly helped him to sit down. Soon, the rest of the family also came for lunch.
Shao Shuting’s first lunch had been delivered by Xue Yifu, but now it was Shiye that sent the lunch over. Shiye first put some food on several small plates for Shao Shuting, one dish after another, and then a bowl of rice. After the rice was filled, he would serve it to Shao Shuting again. It was very meticulous, unlike before, when some dishes were only served in a bowl.
Xue Dafu and the others had gotten used to it over the past few days, but they still felt that people from rich families were really particular.
After Shao Shuting had his meal, Shiye went to the central room to eat.
Jiang Yue was sitting on a small stool with a square stool in front of her. Her small rice bowl was on the square stool, which was similar to the small table she used to eat at home.
While they were eating, someone suddenly shouted from outside.
“Guixia! Guixia!”
It was Chunmei.
Liu Guixia didn’t put down her bowl and chopsticks. She immediately got up, holding the rice bowl in one hand and the chopsticks in the other. As she walked out, she said loudly, “What’s wrong, Chunmei?”
At this moment, Chunmei met her in the courtyard.
“Have you eaten? Do you want to eat here?” Liu Guixia asked.
“I’ve already eaten, thank you.” Chunmei’s eyes smiled. She stretched her neck and looked into the central room, greeted Xue Da and the others, and praised them, “Jiang Yue and Xue Yan have made so many good dishes.” Then she said, the seedlings from our family’s rice field had turned yellow. How are we going to plant them when the time comes? In two days, our family will be planting late rice seedlings. We’re going to check who has extra seedlings so that we can keep them and not throw them away. I see that the late rice seedlings in your family’s paddy fields are growing well. Your family has grown fourteen acres of paddy fields. I don’t know if you have enough for yourself. Anyway, I’m telling you first that if your family has any extra seedlings in the end, don’t throw them away. Give them to our family if you can.”
“Sure, sure.” Liu Guixia immediately agreed. This was a very common occurrence. Every year, some families’ seedlings would not be good. Their family had experienced this for a year in the past, and they had to go from house to house to ask for seedlings.
Liu Guixia consoled her. “Don’t be too anxious. Everyone is afraid that the seedlings will go wrong. Which family wouldn’t sow some bad seeds when they are planting the seedlings? It will all turn out in your favor, don’t worry.”
Liu Guixia only returned to the central room after Chunmei left.
Xue Da smiled. “The rice in our rice field is growing well. I saw it when I walked around last time. It’s better than other families.”
Xue Yan ate in silence. He didn’t say that it was Jiang Yue who changed the seed, but he still glanced at Jiang Yue, who still looked calm.
“We must be in for a lot of luck this year. I hope it will continue to be this good,” Xue Erfu laughed. “Even if you transfer to someone else’s family, our family can still have some.”
