Chapter 196 Big Pot Rice
Chapter 196 Big Pot Rice
"He's been very obedient these past two days, and he's been very nice to me and Ah Sheng. What happened before is over, let's not talk about it anymore."
Song Anning nodded. It only takes a moment to become bad, but the process of becoming good is very painful.
Everyone thought that the two children had improved, but she still couldn't let her guard down. She planned to use mind reading to check on them when nothing happened. It would never go wrong to keep a close eye on them.
At this time, both teams walked to the middle of the field, said a few simple words, and continued to work on their tasks.
Only Song Zeyuan and Song Anyue saw that the elder sister's eyes were shining and she looked like she was asking for praise.
Song An Ning was not stingy and said loudly: "Look at these children in our family, they work so efficiently that they can do the work of an adult."
"Yes, our children are all good."
Wang Qiuyue also said a few words to her, and the children nearby who heard it all smiled. After the elder sister said this, they suddenly felt that the sun was not hot at all, and their legs were no longer sore.
Seeing their proud expressions, Song An Ning raised her voice a little higher: "After we finish planting the land, Sister will give you a reward, a new set of clothes for each of you, and lots of delicious food!
Dear elders, don’t be greedy, you have some too!”
"Thank you, sister!"
"Thank you, Aning!"
"Hahaha, this kid..."
When Song Anning said this, everyone in the field started laughing. Song Erhe also teased Song Dashan:
"Brother, let's get to work. Aning is going to give us something delicious, hahaha..."
"Hahaha, then I have to eat more."
There was laughter and joy in the fields. Near noon, Song Anning went back home under the pretext of changing shoes and put a lot of ingredients in the kitchen.
When she came back in the morning, Wang Qiuyue only went to the warehouse to get seeds, and treated the food as something she had bought in town.
After returning to the field, she asked Qin Yuanying and her daughter, grandma and second grandma to go home and cook first, and told everyone to have lunch at grandpa's house, as she had already bought the food.
When Qin Yuanying heard Song An Ning say that everything had been bought, she breathed a sigh of relief.
There wasn't much food in the village, and there was no time to go to town to buy food for dozens of people. She was a little embarrassed when she first heard this, but the girl was thoughtful.
On the way back, Zhang and Qi were still wondering if they had enough food. If not, they would kill a few chickens. Aning had already told everyone to eat something good. Besides the Song family, there were also the Xiao family and Wang Qiuyue's siblings. They couldn't eat too poorly.
When they got home, they saw the small kitchen was almost overflowing with food. A few cleaned chickens were fine, but what about the half pig? So many people couldn't finish it in a day.
"This girl must have brought back a cartload of stuff."
Zhang said this with a smile, and quickly stepped forward to put away the seasonings piled on the ground, with a bit of pride on her face.
Her granddaughter thought of everything carefully, so her worries just now seemed unnecessary. Aning bought so much food, so the rest would be left to them to make a big pot meal.
Song Anning in the field was sleepy as a dog. Although his hands were busy, his eyelids were twitching uncontrollably. He felt that if he closed his eyes, he would fall asleep in the next second.
"A Ning, didn't you sleep well last night? I see you look sleepy. It's almost time to go back for dinner anyway, why don't you go back and get some sleep first?"
Song Anning patted his head and refused without thinking.
"There are so many children here. As their older sister, I have to hold on. Once I start, you'll see. These little ones will start running home with stomachaches in the afternoon."
"Hahaha, that's true..."
Half an hour later, Song Dashan shouted and everyone stopped what they were doing and walked home in a mighty procession.
The villagers who were still in the fields couldn't help but sigh when they saw this:
"It's good to have more family members. Look at the Song family. They planted more than ten acres of land yesterday. And Aning's family has planted half of their land this morning."
"Not bad, with his method of planting, they can finish planting by tomorrow."
The midday sun is like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the earth.
In the fields, villagers carried farm tools and walked slowly home, their faces full of fatigue. They only hoped that their hard work could be exchanged for a good harvest in the fall.
When Song An Ning arrived home, Qin Yuanying and Xiao Yingchun had already prepared the tea. He picked up the coarse porcelain bowl and gulped it down. His dry throat finally felt a little better.
When they went out in the morning, they all brought water with them, but by noon, they had almost finished drinking it. In order to do more work, everyone endured it.
"Aunt Yuanying, after dinner, make some cold tea to cool you down. We'll take some more this afternoon."
"Okay, I was just thinking about that. I also want to make some more tea. This would be great."
Qin Yuanying put the things away, turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out a large bowl of chicken. They were tired and hungry this morning, and when everyone smelled the aroma of the meat, their stomachs growled a few times.
At this time, Song Erhe's sons also brought tables and chairs from home. Song Nian and Liu went home and took a lot of bowls and chopsticks. Under the supervision of Song An Ning, the children washed themselves very clean and waited obediently for dinner.
"Okay, we're all family, there's no order of priority, just find a table and eat.
After eating, go back to sleep."
After Song Dashan shouted, dishes were served one after another, including fragrant white rice, stewed chicken, stir-fried shredded pork, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, fried tofu, cold dishes, etc., which made everyone's eyes widen.
"Why are there so many? It's Chinese New Year!"
The youngest son of Song Erhe's family is a simple-minded person. He stares at the food in front of him with wide eyes, a little afraid to pick up his chopsticks. What Aning said about eating delicious food is indeed true, but isn't this too good?
"There's enough food, come eat."
Zhang came out of the kitchen holding a spatula, shouted in a very heroic manner, and then brought a bowl of food to Song An Ning.
"Eat quickly, then go back to your room and get some more sleep. You can't even open your eyes."
"Hehe, thank you grandma."
Song Anning didn't hesitate, took the bowl and chopsticks and started eating. Staying up late is not good! Never again...
When he woke up, Song Anning felt that the yard was quiet. He jumped out of bed and thought to himself that something was wrong.
"Xiangxiang, why didn't you wake me up?"
Just before going to bed, Song An Ning told Xiangxiang to wake her up when the main group set off. She looked at the time on the system and it was already past three in the afternoon.
"Master, Xiangxiang called you, but you didn't wake up..."
Xiangxiang feels wronged...
"..."
"I'm sorry, Ao Xiangxiang, please don't be angry, blame me, blame me."
"I won't be angry at all, hehe..."
In fact, Xiangxiang also had selfish motives just now. She called out to Song An Ning softly several times, but seeing that Song An Ning didn't wake up, she wanted to let her sleep a little longer.
Doesn't she know that others don't know? The master didn't sleep all night!
Song An Ning tidied her clothes and jogged along. She was sleeping so soundly that she didn't even hear Xiangxiang's voice.
By the time she got to the fields, only a few acres of her family's land were left to be planted.
Looking at his family's sunburned faces and the fine beads of sweat on their foreheads, Song Anning dug his toes into the ground. He had just said in the morning that he wanted to set a good example for his younger siblings, but in the afternoon he was slapped in the face.
As a result, Song Erhe's granddaughter came over to drink water. When she saw Song Anning, she smiled and said:
"Sister Aning is sleeping in. Shame on you. Ayao works harder than her."
"..."
Help, this is even more embarrassing, what should I do?
