Chapter 1135 Home Cooking
Wu Lazi really wanted to discuss it with his subordinates, and said, "No hurry, wait until after dinner, the food will be ready soon."
Zhou Guo looked at the table full of food, it was quite sumptuous.
Stewed chicken, scrambled eggs, cabbage, pickles, bacon, cured fish...
Wu Lazi said, "I don't know what you like to eat, so I had to ask them to make some. You must be hungry after such a long journey. Come and eat. Don't be polite."
Zhou Guo sat down and said, "I'm sorry to have cost you so much money. There are so many delicious dishes."
This meal is a rare one for an ordinary family. She came from an ordinary family, and even now, her family sometimes eats this.
Wu Lazi smiled and said, "These are what we can only eat during festivals in the mountains. I guess you rich people probably eat these every day, so they are not so rare."
Mr. Wu had some knowledge. "How can rich people eat salted fish and bacon? If they want to eat, they can eat freshly cut meat. You can eat whatever you want, young master. You can't find those things in our mountains."
Zhou Guo said, "Sir, you worry too much. I'm away from home all year round, sleeping in the open air. It's good enough to have something to eat. Sometimes I miss a place to stay for the night, and the dry food happens to be gone, so I have to starve. Things like this are rare good things for people like us."
Still warm and tastes like home.
The group of people were already hungry. The mountain was really difficult to climb, and they had been sitting for so long after climbing up that it was already past mealtime, so they all buried their heads in eating.
Even the picky chef Zhang can eat with relish, and everything tastes delicious to him when he is hungry.
Zhou Guo couldn't control himself and ate to his heart's content, which stunned Wu Lazi and Mr. Wu who were standing beside him.
He sighed, "As expected, the little brat has eaten me out of money. You look small, but you eat a lot. I claim to have a big appetite, but I only eat half as much as you do."
He couldn't help but look her up and down, curiously, "Where did all that food go?"
Zhou Guo said: "I'm stronger."
Wu Lazi disagreed, "I am also very strong, otherwise how could I be the boss? But I don't eat so much in one meal, right?"
Mr. Wu couldn't help but ask, "He's young, a young man at the age of eating long meals. Can't he eat a lot in one meal? As the host, are you saying this because you don't want him to eat?"
Really, how can a host say that the guests ate a lot?
Isn't this just complaining about others eating too much?
Wu Lazi protested, "That's not what I meant. I just thought it was strange that this kid eats more than me."
Zhou Guo said: "It's okay, I do eat a lot."
As long as the village is not starving, she will not let her stomach go unfilled. In this world, being able to eat enough is such a rare thing.
She had been hungry in the mountains for so long, even when she was fleeing, she had never been hungry for so long. Now she couldn't go hungry for a meal, let alone not having enough to eat.
Dashu and Xiaoshu were also eating a lot. Without Zhou Guo saying anything, they ate to their heart's content. After all, the boss should not be short of these few bites of food.
The food on the table was cleared out.
There was no oil left in the food bowl.
After the meal, she realized that the two people simply had the same surname and had no relationship.
Wu Lazi was very happy. This proved that Zhou Guo really didn't despise them. Even though she ate such meals every day, she enjoyed them very much.
Before leaving, he was smiling and told her, "If you find it boring staying here, you can go around the village. There is no place you can't go in the village."
Zhou Guo smiled and nodded, "I know, you go first."
As soon as they left, she stood up and said to them, "Let's go out for a walk."
Since she was already here, it would be best for her to look around. She had only been to two bandit dens.
Following them were two people from the village who were blocking the road at the foot of the mountain. They were specially left behind by Wu Lazi to act as guides for them.
Everyone in the village was gathered at the martial arts training ground. Zhou Guo had no intention of getting closer and walked in the opposite direction.
It was already late at this time, and the sun would set soon.
Dashu said, "Master, are we going to stay here tonight?"
Zhou Guo said, "It's getting late now. Do you want to spend the night in the mountains? Isn't it good to have a house here to shelter from the wind and rain?"
Xiaoshu said, "That's good, but this is someone else's territory after all, and it's also a bandit den. We are just a few of us, and two fists can't beat four hands. If something really happens, we won't even be able to find a direction to escape."
Zhou Guo said: "So, walk more now, and if something really happens, just run away."
Dashu suddenly realized what was going on and started to concentrate on finding the direction to go down the mountain.
Zhou Guo walked around slowly, looking at the mountains, the water, the land, and the people. As she walked, a group of people followed her. They were all children, looking at her curiously with their bright eyes.
His clothes had not been washed in who knows how long, they were shiny black, his face was covered with black snot, and there were two strands of snot hanging under his nostrils. All the children were like this.
Xiaoshu was a little disgusted, "Whose children are these? They are so dark, how can you recognize which one is yours?"
At first glance, they all look the same.
Dashu said: "You were no different from them when you were a child. You were even worse off than them, but they still had thick clothes to wear."
At that time, for them, just having clothes to wear was a blessing, let alone thick clothes. It was considered a good life.
Although these children are a little dirty, they are all plump and have clothes and shoes. In this world, very few children can live such a life.
Zhou Guo felt around in her arms, but unfortunately she didn't bring any candy. She had stopped liking candy a few years ago.
A few snacks wouldn't be enough to share among so many people.
He asked with a smile: "Where are the places in your village where you collect firewood?"
The children pointed to her, "Over there, over there, and over there on the mountain, you can get firewood wherever there are trees, but it's a little far."
Not only point her out, but also take her there.
Zhou Guo said, "Next time, it's almost dark now, let's walk around the village. Where is your water source? How many wells are there in the village?"
Along the way, she had almost completely understood the situation in the village.
The two adults who followed them didn't care about them as long as they didn't go down the mountain and didn't cause trouble. Seeing that Zhou Guo was playing enthusiastically with a group of children, they went with the flow and went to the back. The group of children were chattering, which made their ears hurt.
When it was almost dark, they arrived at the entrance of the village. Zhou Guo stood there for a while and then left.
From time to time, you can hear the chirping of insects and birds.
A group of children followed behind and went back.
When we returned to the small courtyard, it was already completely dark. Wu Lazi had not come back yet, and a group of people were still in the martial arts training ground.
The children haven't gone home yet. Their parents are at the martial arts training ground and it's not time for dinner yet.
Zhou Guo talked to them a lot.
