After Cheng wanted to finish, she turned around and saw Zhou Tianlei, who was sleeping soundly. She slowly moved over and looked at this man's face so closely and carefully for the first time.
His resolute face looked slightly tired, with stubble already sprouting, a high bridge of nose, slightly convex eyebrows, drooped eyelids, narrow and raised eye slits, and thick black eyebrows. What's amazing is that such a resolute face has There are two soft-lined lips.
"It looks like it's very kissable." Cheng Xiang looked at it carefully, and the idea of not judging it came into his mind.
Suddenly, the man opened his eyes, not as hazy as when he suddenly woke up from sleep, but unusually clear.
When their eyes met, Cheng Xiang was suddenly startled. The man looked at the bright face in front of him, his eyes slid across her eyebrows and landed on her slightly parted red lips.
Feeling a pair of big hands falling on his waist, Cheng Xiang stood up suddenly, brushed his hair, and said calmly: "Go back to the house to sleep, it's easy to get a stiff neck here." After that, he turned and entered the bedroom.
Zhou Tianlei laughed dumbly when he saw her running away, "I thought she was really cowardly, but it turned out to be a bluff."
The next day, when Cheng remembered making breakfast, Zhou Tianlei had already left.
At noon, Chen Tian brought over some pork and beef. The beef was lean, the pork had streaks, and some ribs.
"Brother Lei said that he won't be back tonight, so there's no need to cook for him. Close the doors and windows and go to bed early at night," Chen Tian told Cheng Xiang.
"Are you busy?" Cheng wanted to ask
"Well, a group of sows are going to give birth today. We are all on standby at the pig farm."
In a pig farm, the delivery of sows is a top priority. The survival rate of piglets is directly related to the efficiency of the pig farm and needs to be monitored throughout the entire process. Therefore, every time a sow gives birth, the entire pig farm is on alert.
"How about dinner?" Cheng wanted to know that the pig farm did not have a canteen, and the employees usually brought their own meals from home.
"Today's situation is special. Everyone is eating. Brother Lei called a few women from the village to cook a big pot of rice." After Chen Tian said this, he hurried back.
In the afternoon, Cheng wanted to take the children to have dinner when he heard Xiuhua yelling next door: "I've been having severe back pain these days, why don't I go find someone else?"
"There has been a drought recently. Many people have concentrated on watering the fields. There are not enough manpower. Just go and help Leizi. We usually eat other people's cheap meat." It was Guiqin's voice.
Cheng Xiang opened the door and saw two people pulling at each other, and said, "Sister-in-law Xiuhua, if your waist is not good, don't go. You can help me look after the child later, and I'll go to the pig farm."
Xiuhua was overjoyed: "The relationship is good, okay, I'll take care of the kids at home."
Guiqin looked at the delicate Cheng Xiang with a troubled face and thought to herself: "If you go, what can you do? It won't be enough to cause trouble."
Cheng wanted to go home and ask Tian Xing to take care of the child, so he went out and followed Gui Qin.
It was already dark now, the lights in the pig farm were brightly lit, and everyone gathered around the pig house. Two sows had finished giving birth, and a group of piglets gathered around the sows and sucked milk.
There are several sows in the pig house next to them. Some of them look extremely uncomfortable, pacing back and forth irritably, and some are wagging their tails, humping, and making grunting sounds. Zhou Tianlei and several old masters checked the condition of the sows who were about to give birth. They estimated that they would not be able to give birth for a while, so he told everyone: "Let's all take turns to eat."
The old master and a few young men asked to stay, so Zhou Tianlei took the others to the front yard to eat.
In the front yard, everything was carried out in an orderly manner under Cheng Xiang's arrangement. Originally there were not enough steamed buns, so it was definitely too late to make the dough and steam the steamed buns temporarily. Cheng Xiang looked at the ingredients and said, "Let's make some pot cakes with noodles."
As he spoke, he pulled up his hair and arranged for his sisters-in-law to cut vegetables and meat, while taking out the basin and starting to knead the noodles.
She divided the dough into small pieces and soaked them in water for later use.
Turning around and starting to help cut the vegetables, several women were shocked when they saw Cheng Xiang kneading the noodles and cutting the vegetables neatly. They never expected that this charming lady from the city could actually cook, and she could cook neatly and with ease. .
Cheng wanted to tell everyone his thoughts: "The people who work here are all old men with big appetites. There is no need to cook exquisite dishes. Just make a pot of random stew and put on the pot cakes to keep them satisfied."
Several people agree that this is good.
Cheng Xiang made lard from fat meat, added onions and ginger, put the chopped pork into the pot, stir-fried until it changed color, added the chopped potatoes, eggplants, and beans into the pot, and then Cheng Xiang put the soaked dough into the pot. Press and pull with both hands to form a pancake in the shape of beef tongue. Place the pancake around the stew and stick it to the edge of the pot. Cover and simmer over low heat.
It was the first time for everyone to see such a novel way of eating. Smelling the aroma in the pot, it felt like saliva was coming out. Chen Jiao, who was standing aside, remembered that Chen Tian said that he wanted to cook delicious food. She thought her brother was exaggerating. Today When I saw it with my own eyes, I was filled with shock and admiration.
Guiqin said in amazement: "I didn't expect that a city girl like Xiao Xiang could also cook, and the cooking was so delicious."
Cheng Xiang smiled sweetly and said: "People in the city also have to eat. I usually like to eat, so I just figured out how to make it myself. Practice makes perfect."
Others had had many suspicions about Cheng Xiang before. The young lady in the city was so beautiful and must be domineering or domineering. They didn't expect that she was so easy-going and capable, so they couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration and closeness to her.
"I'm a landlady, so I'm not supposed to get my fair share of cooking. I'm marrying like a chicken, and I'm marrying into the country. I'm not going to act like a city person anymore?" The person who spoke was a man in his 30s. A woman with a mean face.
"Zhou Cheng's family, what are you talking about? Xiaoxiang is new here. You are not too dirty or too tired to help us. Why are you still so arrogant?" Guiqin yelled at the woman.
"Hey, isn't Zhou Tianlei her man? Isn't this her own business? If she marries a daughter-in-law from the countryside, not to mention cooking, wouldn't she also have to feed pigs and cows? Are city people delicate?" Women He curled his lips and sarcastically said.
"Yes, if he married Huang Ju, wouldn't you all become relatives of the boss? It's a pity that you don't have that fate," Chen Jiao said coldly from the side.
Everyone else laughed out loud.
"Huang Ju?" Cheng Xiang looked confused, why did she still have something to do with him?
"She is Huang Ju's eldest sister," Gui Qin explained to Cheng Xiang from the side.
So it turns out that she was venting her anger on her sister's behalf.
"Okay, the food is about to be out of the pot, and it's time for them to come to eat. Let's start the pot." Cheng Xiang held Chen Jiao in a calm manner.
When Zhou Tianlei walked over with everyone, the scene in front of him made his breath hitch.
At this time, Cheng Xiang rolled up his trousers, revealing a section of his snow-white calves and ankles. The hem of his floral shirt was tied around her waist. As she bent down to copy the vegetables, her waist The porcelain white skin is looming, and the long hair is pulled back casually. The scattered hair is wet with sweat and sticks to the blushing cheek. The sweat slides down her face, down to her fair and slender neck, and down to... ...Through the bursts of smoke, she was incredibly beautiful at this moment.
Not only Zhou Tianlei, but others were also stunned by the beautiful scenery in front of them: "When did a fairy descend from the pig farm?"
There were several swallowing sounds all around, and Zhou Tianlei stepped forward quickly, pulled Cheng Xiang into the office.
"Why are you here?" Zhou Tianlei asked with a livid face.
Cheng Xiang looked at the man in front of him with a frown and a solemn expression. He didn't understand what had offended him and blinked at him.
Her cute look almost sent Zhou Tianlei away.
"I'm here to help," Cheng Xiang muttered.
Zhou Tianlei looked at her sweaty face, took a long breath, and brought a towel over to wipe her.
Cheng Xiang frowned and pushed away the towel: "It stinks."
Zhou Tianlei scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I'll get some water for you to wash your face."
Cheng wanted to hold him back and said, "No, you go and eat quickly. If you don't go, they will finish you off."
After saying that, he pulled Zhou Tianlei to go out.
Zhou Tianlei paused for a moment, grabbed her, reached out to untie the knot on her skirt, put the clothes down, and squatted down to put down her trouser legs.
"It will get dirty," Cheng Xiang protested. The floor of the pig farm was full of mud and water, it was too dirty.
"I'll wash it for you if it's dirty."
