Chapter 1103: 1080. Wu Lei’s Friendship [Two-in-One]_2
Wu Lei vowed, "Next year, when you come to my house, I’ll take you to herd cattle together!"
Zhang Chen: ...
What can I say? Nowadays, finding such a simple person in the village is a rarity.
He could only sigh, "Are you still going to the pork feast? If you are, let’s go together."
Wu Lei thought for a moment, "Alright! But we can’t leave the cattle unattended, I’ll take my mom there first, and then my dad will come after we eat."
Just as they were talking, the door of the sheep pen creaked open, and his aunt shouted loudly, "Wu Lei, Tantan said to ask you to bring Princess and the others over, so their original owners can see them."
"Alright!" Wu Lei replied, "Mom, you go call Princess and the others, I’ll go change my clothes. My friend drove over to pick us up, so we don’t need to ride the tricycle."
His aunt heard this and, seeing Zhang Chen smiling and greeting from the side, couldn’t help but grin:
"Xiaozhang, thank you for coming all this way... It’s such a surprise, I don’t have much to offer here, it’s really embarrassing..."
She finally realized that, of all Wu Lei’s close friends, this young man was probably the only one—
After all, not everyone can put up with someone who’s a bit dim.
At this moment, her smile was particularly sincere, "Later, when Tantan’s house sells beef, I’ll have Leilei save a few pounds of the best cuts for you."
"Great!" Zhang Chen lacked nothing but stuff from Lao Song’s family. Without hesitation, he said:
"Auntie, don’t just save a few pounds. Thirty or fifty pounds isn’t too much, but one or two pounds aren’t too little. I’ll transfer the money to Wu Lei by then!"
As he said this, he urged Wu Lei:
"Hurry up, go change your clothes, or all the good food will be gone by the time we get there."
And he couldn’t help but sincerely suggest, "Herding cattle is great, but do you want to have a backup plan?"
"When I arrived, I contacted those two municipal procurement persons from before. I gotta say, there’s something different within the system! Even though they’re just doing procurement, they really have that aura, and people would believe it if you said they were the Governor of Ning Province!"
"I was just thinking, since you’re still young, maybe try studying and see if you can also take the civil service exam or something?"
No matter what you do, you can’t keep shoveling manure forever!
He’s only in his twenties, not his fifties!
However, Wu Lei, having been cleansed by the vast Jinhe and his carefree cattle and sheep, now had a clear understanding of himself:
"My mom said my brain isn’t suited for that—besides, don’t romanticize the system. I recently browsed Douyin, and even the security guards in the neighborhood look quite official!"
Zhang Chen: ...
...
Meanwhile, at Lao Song’s family.
After the five pigs were mostly butchered, the work of the pork butchers came to an end, and the villagers who came to join in the excitement clicked their tongues and, chatting, entered the courtyard.
Everyone was from the same village, so nobody stood on ceremony, and while shouting at busy Song Sancheng and Wu Lan tidying up, they kept complimenting the big courtyard they hadn’t seen in a while:
"This house is really beautiful, like those mansions on Douyin, probably cost over a million... click click click, it must be great to have successful kids..."
These were the villagers who went out to work early in the year and weren’t fully aware of things.
"This big courtyard is really clean and bright, but why not plant more vegetables on the edge of the flower bed? It would be so convenient to pick and stir-fry at will!"
These were the ones who went to work later in the year expressing their views.
And like Li Lanhua, Zhang Hong, these aunts who often work at Lao Song’s, had already started to clean up, carrying inside buckets.
To say nothing else, cleaning pig intestines is messy work, but they taste great.
Having learned about Lao Song’s food pricing, and with them having earned quite a bit from carrots and cabbages this year because of them...
This was indeed a good opportunity to show their worth!
Chatting away, those snacks on the few tables in the courtyard ended up being sneaked into mouths—
"Mmm!"
The crowd who just bit into the glutinous rice sticks widened their eyes, rendered speechless by the unexpected deliciousness.
"How are these rice sticks made? Who made them? Where did such skill come from?"
"See how thick these rice sticks are, with a bit of stickiness when you bite in, they must’ve been made from our good home-grown rice—Sancheng, what variety of rice did your family plant this year?"
Song Sancheng actually couldn’t quite remember, but he had taken pictures, and so he happily said, "If you like it, eat more, I’ll look up what variety it is..."
As for the rice sticks and popcorn, the house had a half-room full, eat to your heart’s content!
