Lin Xue lay in bed unable to sleep. She always felt that what happened today was a time bomb. She might explode that day. A scandal like a pregnancy out of wedlock would have sunk into the village, but Li Cheng ignored her.

Get married.

"Xiaoxue, what are you thinking about? You're not sleeping yet." Li Qi asked, holding Lin Xue's hand under the quilt.

Lin Xue turned over and faced Li Qi, "Head of the family, I always feel that this matter is not over yet. What if it spreads out? It will affect the children."

"Probably not." Li Qi paused, "Didn't Dad tell me to stop here? It will be fine when people come in at the end of the month. Don't scare yourself by thinking about it."

"But I don't feel at ease at all." Lin Xue was still uneasy, "Master, if you say you want to be a concubine, will the girl agree? I feel a little doubtful."

"Xiaoxue, don't think so much. Even if something happens, dad will solve it. You are just too free to think about it. Our house will start to be built tomorrow. If you go over and help find something to do, you will stop thinking about it.

." In Li Qi's heart, the old man is omnipotent and can solve everything.

"Then it's up to you. I'll cook tomorrow and go to bed." Lin Xue closed her eyes.

At dawn the next day, Lin Xue went next door to find Osmanthus fragrans for help. She really couldn't make meals for dozens of people by herself.

"Osmanthus, have you gotten up?" Lin Xue shouted outside the door.

"Get up." Osmanthus opened the door and smiled, "Sister-in-law, I'm ready. Let's go now."

"Osmanthus, I'm really troubling you. You also know the situation of our family, so I can only ask you for help." Lin Xue mentioned the cooking matter to Ms. Zhao, but she was rejected by Ms. Zhao, saying that the family was too busy recently.

Come, Zhang didn't mention it at all, so he definitely won't come.

"Sister-in-law, you are too polite. I have been free recently so I can help you. When the crops are ripe in January, I won't be able to help you even if I want to!" Osmanthus waved her hands, "Sister-in-law, why is this Li Cheng getting married? Why is he still like that?

urgent."

"There is no way, the girl's family wants to get married as soon as possible... Anyway, it doesn't matter whether it's late or early, so dad agreed." This was the old man's idea, and he would say this if anyone asked.

"Oh," Osmanthus looked around and said, "Sister-in-law, have you seen that girl? There might be some problems with getting married in such a hurry. You need to figure it out."

Lin Xue was dumbfounded, "My sister-in-law went to see her and said that the girl is very good. What's the problem?"

"Sister-in-law, don't believe it. There is a family in the village next to ours where the girl was in a hurry to get married. They didn't think much about it, but the girl they married was a lame and couldn't speak. People in the village said that there was something wrong with the girl.

But no one told it."

"And I haven't heard about this." Lin Xue was a little embarrassed, "Osmanthus, did they say what's wrong with that girl?"

Osmanthus thought for a while and said, "There are quite a few. Some say she is mute, some say she cannot have children, or she is an ugly girl, and some say...that girl Kefu."

"The imagination of the villagers is really good." Lin Xue couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was all Li Cheng's fault. "Guihua, my sister-in-law told you that there is nothing wrong with the girl. Don't listen to the nonsense of the villagers."

"I understand, sister-in-law." Osmanthus kicked the pebbles under her feet, "Sister-in-law, I heard from Dazhu that the food you ordered is really good. There is meat in every meal. No one in the village does this."

"It's nothing. My family has a tight schedule to build a house and everyone has to work overtime. How can we work if the food is not good? Our health is important." Lin Xue felt that only when the food is good can everyone work hard, so she discussed with Li Qi to have meat for every meal.

"Those helpers are very happy. Usually they rarely get meat at home. This time, not only did your family get a lot of money for building a house, but you also get meat for every meal. People in the village are rushing to get it. The scene is very lively."

Osmanthus fragrans described it with joy.

Lin Xue listened quietly. Li Qi did not tell her. The two chatted all the way and soon arrived at Zhuangzi. Lin Xue walked into the makeshift kitchen, where several large stoves were built with iron pots on them.

There were grains, vegetables and meat beside it, and everyone brought their own bowls and chopsticks, which were piled on the chopping board.

Looking at the sea bowl, Lin Xue felt that she thought cooking was too simple, and asked in a daze, "Osmanthus, can it be done just by the two of us?"

Looking at Lin Xue's expression, Guihua covered her mouth and smiled, "Sister-in-law, this kind of rice is different from what we cook at home. There are only two kinds of rice here, either rice stew or noodles. Let's make rice today.

"Sister-in-law, you go steam the rice and I'll make the stew. Last time my family built a house, I cooked all the meals by myself." Guihua quickly assigned the task.

Lin Xue took out a large basin to wash rice. There was water outside the kitchen that Li Qi had prepared a long time ago. Because there were so many people, Lin Xue steamed two pots of rice. After finishing cooking, she went to help Osmanthus wash the vegetables.

"Sister-in-law, how many rooms do you plan to build? I think the place is quite big." Guihua asked while washing vegetables.

"Five rooms." This was Lin Xue's minimum requirement. If she hadn't been afraid that the Li family would cause trouble, she would have built a few more rooms.

"It's good." Guihua nodded, "This place is big, but we can expand it at any time when the house is not enough."

"That's what I thought, so I asked the boss to mark some more places." It was almost noon and Lin Xue sped up the movements of her hands.

After washing the vegetables, Osmanthus washed the iron pot and began to pour the oil after drying it. After waiting for a while, Lin Xue poured the marinated meat in. Osmanthus took the spatula and continued to stir-fry. When the meat changed color, she poured the washed vegetables.

Pour it in, add water, and when it's cooked, add seasonings and stew.

Twenty minutes later, the stew was ready and the rice was ready. Lin Xue took off her apron and said, "Osmanthus, I'll tell them to eat."

"No, sister-in-law." Osmanthus hurriedly stopped, "Their noses are sharper than dogs. They will come by themselves when they smell the fragrance."

"Really?" Lin Xue looked outside, and sure enough, everyone dropped what they were doing and walked towards this direction. Lin Xue hurriedly went out to fill several basins with water for everyone to wash their hands.

Although everyone was very hungry, they still washed their hands before getting their own bowls.

"Put them in a row and come over one by one." Osmanthus shouted, "There is plenty of food. It's enough for you. Don't worry."

"Dazhu, look at your wife's loud voice. Does she often yell at you at home?" The man who was close to Dazhu patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Fuck you, I just like my wife like this. Didn't I yell at you to care about it? Be careful, my wife won't feed you." Dazhu scolded with a smile.

"Ah, no, how could I forget, sister-in-law, I was wrong..." the man wailed.

Guihua glared and ignored it, and continued to serve everyone food.

"Sister-in-law, it seems we have to cook more tomorrow, and our food is gone." Osmanthus complained.

"Yes." Lin Xue nodded, "I thought there would be some leftover, but who knew there wasn't enough. Osmanthus, let's go to your house to make something to eat. I'll bring Feng'er and Yunyun there too."

"Okay, sister-in-law." Guihua took some dishes from the kitchen and prepared to go back to cook.

Lin Xue took another piece of pork ribs and couldn't break her promise last time.
