In her space, Lu Jueyu cooked a pot of vegetable porridge, a basket of steamed buns, a pot of soy milk, and a basket of tea eggs for breakfast.
Since Dong Huang and Dong Li now had more friends to eat with, she prepared ten meat buns, five tea eggs, ten scallion pancakes, and a pack of raisins for each of them to share with their friends and cousins.
Some of them are in their growing years, so they tend to feel hungry more easily than others, especially boys. So in addition to these, she gave them a few apples.
At first, she worried that people would wonder how she got so many ingredients. But after she told them about her husband and brother-in-law going into the mountains, she was sure that no one would doubt her anymore.
After all, there is indeed plenty of food on the mountain. As long as you dare to venture into the mountains, you will get a good harvest.
After putting away the children’s snacks, she continued preparing lunch. In order to give her sister-in-law enough nutrition, she made a pot of bone soup, steamed tofu in soy sauce, a plate of water spinach in oyster sauce, grilled fish, and vegetable salad.
After cooking, she went to take a shower, changed into a set of clean clothes, and then left the space. When she appeared in the kitchen, she took out the food from her own space. She packed the breakfast and lunch prepared for Father Li and Li Chenze’s family into two four-layered bamboo baskets.
As soon as she closed the lid, she saw her husband coming back with Li Chenze. While they were washing their faces, hands, and legs, she walked over and said, "Brother, I prepared breakfast and lunch for you and Father. You just need to heat it up for lunch later."
Li Chenze wiped the water on his face with a towel and said, "Thank you, third sister-in-law."
She nodded and looked at her husband again, "Husband, I’m going to call the children and we will have breakfast together."
Nodding at his wife, Li Chenmo said with a smile, "Okay."
When she came back with the children, Li Chenze had already taken the food and left. While they were having breakfast, Su Lide saw a man carrying two layered bamboo baskets as he walked out of the house on the hill.
Thinking of his nephew’s words, he thought that man was Li Chenmo. Since he was now a neighbor, he walked to the fence and greeted him, "Good morning, comrade."
Li Chenze saw someone talking to him and walked over to say hello, "Good morning, comrade. I have never seen you before, are you new here?"
Hearing his question, Su Lide nodded and said, "My family and I just came here yesterday. We are from another town. My name is Su Lide, can I know your name?"
Li Chenze had no intention of pursuing other people’s affairs, so he didn’t ask him why he moved from the town to their village.
"My name is Li Chenze and I live near the central area with my family and my father," he said with a smile.
