Reborn as a farmer's favorite, Koi sweet wife super lucky husband
Chapter 95 A new beginning
The family has been financially tight for a long time. Three meals a day are barely enough to make ends meet. The dishes on the table are becoming increasingly scarce. The occasional flashes of hunger in the children's eyes prick every parent's heart like needles.
Although the people were not starving to death, they could only have thin porridge and a small amount of wild vegetables for every meal. Such a life was really miserable.
Mother Wu took a deep breath, her eyes showing both determination and helplessness. Finally, she made up her mind and decided to embark on the journey to her mother's home.
She did not expect to solve the debt problem immediately during this trip, but she at least hoped to get some help from her family to solve the current urgent problem.
"Okay, I'll go for a walk!"
This sentence was not only said to Xie Di, but also more like a kind of self-motivation to myself.
Carrying an old bamboo basket, Wu's mother placed a few freshly dug radishes from her own field in it. This was not only to prevent her family from seeing her embarrassment, but also out of self-respect - even if asking for help, she could not lose her backbone.
However, the disappointment in Wu Xu in his heart was like an undercurrent that was difficult to calm down.
Unless one is at the end of one's rope, who would be willing to admit that the son they raised is an ungrateful and ungrateful person?
Having been away from home for many years, he seemed to have heard about the difficulties at home, but he never received any help, not even a few taels of silver sent back to alleviate the family crisis.
But the fact is, Wu Xu was not completely ignorant of this.
The letter had been delivered to him several days ago, but a series of misfortunes delayed his response...
Ran He's shouts were clear and pleasant, like a stream of clear spring water, penetrating the silence of noon and making the whole courtyard come alive.
There was an imperceptible joy and expectation hidden in that voice, which brought an unusual vitality to this simple family.
When Dabao, Erya and Xiaodouzi heard the call, they put down their work and rushed to respond, as if they had received some important instructions.
Dabao threw down his homemade wooden sword, his little face filled with eager excitement; Erya was dressed in pink, her hair carefully braided into two pigtails, her face as beautiful as a flower, her eyes full of curiosity and anticipation for the upcoming lunch; although Xiaodouzi was the youngest and his steps were staggering, his eagerness to help was no less than that of his older brothers and sisters.
In the kitchen, Ran He had already arranged everything in order. The fire reflected on her focused face, making her look particularly warm.
On the steaming stove, there are several carefully cooked dishes with tempting colors and fragrant aroma.
The pig's trotters stewed with soybeans are bright in color, the meat is tender and boneless, and the soup is thick; the bacon and green peppers are paired together, the colors are sharp, the aroma is overflowing, and it whets the appetite; the braised pork with preserved vegetables is even more tempting, the thick slices of meat become crispy and tender after a long time of stewing, and perfectly blend with the salty and fragrant preserved vegetables, which makes people salivate.
Ran He skillfully assigned tasks, taking into account the children's abilities while maintaining fairness.
Dabao was very proud of being assigned the task of serving the braised pork with preserved vegetables, while Erya held the bacon and green peppers carefully, taking every step extremely cautiously; even Xiaodouzi was assigned the "important task" of transporting the cold cucumbers, the little guy held the edge of the bowl with a focused expression as if he was carrying out a mission that had attracted worldwide attention.
The children's footsteps and laughter intertwined as they walked through the courtyard, and the old but exceptionally clean wooden table became the center of their gathering.
The sunlight shines through the leaves, adding a touch of warmth and peace to this family dinner.
The workers around moved at the sound. The aroma of food mixed with the children's laughter made them smile and their hearts were filled with warmth.
For them, this is not just a simple working meal, but also the warmth and comfort of home, enough to temporarily dispel the fatigue of days of work.
Ran He stood at the door, watching the scene with gentle but firm eyes, knowing in his heart that although life had given them countless hardships and challenges, as long as the family was united, no difficulties would be insurmountable.
In this meal, what you eat is the food, what you taste is the family love, and the unyielding belief in a better life.
"Come on, come on, everyone, sit down, dinner is ready!"
Following Ran He's call, the family sat together and shared lunch.
The air is not only filled with the aroma of food, but also the taste of home and the sweetness of family love.
On days like this, time seems no longer restricted by the ticking of the clock, but flows freely with the warmth and satisfaction of people's hearts.
The workers are able to relax temporarily in such an atmosphere and enjoy this moment of peace, because here, every moment of rest is a gift given by the host, and there is no need to worry about being misunderstood or blamed.
In such understanding and respect, the warmth between people grows quietly and becomes the driving force that supports them to move forward in their difficult lives.
Ran He's voice was like delicate silk, gentle but containing a force that could not be ignored. It gently brushed across the texture of the ancient beams and passed through the thick brick and tile structure, like a warm spring breeze, brushing away the fatigue in the workers' hearts.
At this soft and penetrating call, the workers seemed to be awakened from their continuous busyness, and their figures gradually descended slowly and steadily from the high-hanging beams. Everyone's face was covered with marks of hard work - covered in dust, but what could not be concealed was the deep desire for the upcoming meal flashing in their eyes.
Before sitting down at the dining table, they did not rush to finish the meal, but went to the sink one by one to carefully wash their hands covered with calluses and fine lines. This is not only a hygienic habit, but also a kind of awe for the food they are about to eat, and an unspoken respect and courtesy to the host who provided the meal.
The splashing water took away the traces of labor and seemed to indicate that a short and warm rest was about to begin.
Ran He called over Dabao from the neighboring house and several other energetic boys. They were excited to help the adults and shuttled between the kitchen and the dining table, carrying heavy dishes in their little hands. Although their steps were a little unsteady, their eyes were full of pride in participating in the affairs of the adult world.
The dishes were so generous in portion that one could not help but admire them. In order to let everyone enjoy the food, Ran He decided to divide the workers into two tables. This arrangement not only avoided the workers' awkwardness when dining at the same table with the host - the kind of embarrassment where they were afraid that their behavior was not elegant enough and they would hesitate even to pick up a piece of greasy meat - but also made the whole dining atmosphere much more relaxed.
Then, as the aroma of meat spread, there seemed to be a sense of freedom and joy in the air, and the laughter became more hearty and cheerful.
