Chapter 1772 Everyone digs yam together (3)
In the evening, Lu Xiaoxiao cooked a pot of pork rib soup with the yams she dug in the afternoon and the pork ribs. After she scooped half of the pork rib soup into the space, she put the spare rib soup into a big bowl and prepared to send it away later. Give it to the masters to drink.
After dinner, Lu Xiaoxiao glanced outside the house. Seeing that it was getting dark, she took the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen to wash them, and then walked towards the cowshed with a basket.
When she came to the cowshed, she saw that the masters were eating, so she took out the yam pork rib soup from the basket and put it on the table, and then said to them: "Masters, today I went to the mountain to dig yam. The pork rib soup I stewed with freshly dug yam, you should drink it while it is hot, the oily smell will become stronger when it cools."
Old Fan and the others quickly drank the porridge in the bowl after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, and then picked up the porridge spoon and scooped a bowl of soup for each of them.
"Xiaoxiao, are all the yams in that yam field ripe?" Mr. Fan asked Lu Xiaoxiao after drinking a few mouthfuls of soup.
"It's all mature and ready to be excavated."
"Don't rush to dig yams on the mountain. We will go to the mountains to dig yams with you after the autumn harvest is over."
"Old Fan is right, leave the digging of yams to a few of us, after a year of your conditioning, our bodies are much better than last year.
So this year our speed of digging yams must be faster than last year, and we can dig that yam field in less than a month. "Foreman Xie echoed after hearing Fan Lao's words.
Lu Xiaoxiao's heart warmed when she heard what Mr. Fan and Foreman Xie said. She knew that Mr. Fan and Mr. Xie loved her dearly and didn't want her to do the hard work of digging yams, so they took all the work on themselves.
But as an apprentice, she couldn't bear to watch the masters do that kind of hard work, not to mention that they are so old, it should be time to live up to their retirement years, but how can fate make them degenerate so far.
"Master, Second Master, we don't need to go to the mountains to dig yams this year, because I told the yam land to a few people I made friends with, and they will give me three-tenths of the yams dug out.
Three tenths of the yam is enough for us to eat, so we can have a comfortable cat winter this year. "
After hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, Mr. Fan didn't show a happy expression at all. Instead, he frowned. He felt that Lu Xiaoxiao had acted recklessly this time.
"Xiaoxiao, are the people you found reliable?" Fan Lao asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Reliable, I didn't know them for a day or two, but a year or two. I know what kind of people they are, otherwise I wouldn't be able to take them to the yam field."
Although Mr. Fan felt less worried after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, he was still a little uneasy because he knew human nature too well, and he was afraid that those people Lu Xiaoxiao was looking for would have evil intentions when they met Liang.
Lu Xiaoxiao saw that the worry on Fan Lao's expression was much less than before, and she knew that Fan Lao had listened to what she just said, but if she wanted to completely dispel Fan Lao's worries, she had to give it to time.
"Master, please drink the soup slowly. I will take them to the yam field tomorrow, so I will go home to rest first, and you should also rest early."
"Understood, you go back quickly, pay attention to safety on the road." Fan Lao said after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words.
"I see."
