Chapter 359 Aren’t You Ashamed of Yourself?
Before she traveled through time here, Bai Tao's colleagues at the company where she worked would occasionally joke with her, saying that they were craving for a feast and wanted to spend 200 yuan for a meal.
I'm afraid you may not be able to enjoy the feast in Taohua Village today even if you spend a thousand or eight hundred.
Those running on the mountains, swimming in the water, diving in the sea, and flying in the air all appear on the table.
At this time, the villagers were clearing the table and bowls while sighing: "This time last year, I was still cutting dandelions in the fields."
"Yes, noodles are in season these days, and every household goes to the mountains to look for them."
"That's right. Last year, I didn't even dare to eat the purslane steamed bread."
"Back then, if we could have a good meal of rice during the Chinese New Year, we would be happy for several months."
"That's right. At that time, I never dreamed that I would not only see king crabs in the deep sea, but also eat them."
One villager laughed and said, "Speaking of which, the king crabs today are at least two or three pounds bigger than before."
"Yes, I heard from the village chief that this batch of king crabs was ordered by my aunt long ago, just so that we can eat well."
"Grandma loves us so much, we must do our best to live up to her expectations."
"That's right. When I get back home, I'll ask those naughty kids at home to recite all the poems and articles about filial piety to me."
As soon as these words came out, someone immediately laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back: "Hahaha, people like you are just like what my aunt said, when parents can't do anything, they start to do something with their children."
"Yes, yes, hahaha..."
The large abalone, lobster, and king crab we ate today were all seafood that Bai Tao bought from a world called Tianshui Blue Planet.
It is a newly discovered planet, where the ocean accounts for 82% of its surface, which is higher than the Blue Planet.
The sea is also extremely rich in supplies. When Bai Tao saw that Tianshui Blue Planet had a large amount of seafood for sale, he immediately placed an order.
At this time, she began to be thankful that she had saved a lot of money before, otherwise, how could she buy whatever she wanted.
The various types of seafood now stored in the mall’s warehouse are enough to feed Taohua Village for decades.
However, Bai Tao didn't plan to give all these things to the villagers. She had to find a chance to sell some of them so that she could get money to continue buying things from the mall.
Junji Town is inland, far away from the ocean, so it is not easy to eat seafood.
There are four or five bordering powers and countries here. As long as people get used to eating seafood, even if they only eat it five or six times a month, there is no need to worry about bad business.
When Bai Tao thought of this, she felt happy: It seems that I was born to be a businessman.
Bai Duoxi walked away with the notebook in her hands, and the big guy rubbed his stomach and said shyly, "Sister Bai, do you have any stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets?"
Before Bai Tao could speak, the big guy said embarrassedly: "I am really too full from eating."
Bai Tao shook her head helplessly. She needed stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets. It was obvious how bloated she was.
She took out a box of medicine from her bag and threw it to the big guy: "Take it easy."
The big guy nodded obediently: "Yes, Sister Bai, I will definitely not eat like this next time."
Thinking of today's meal, Bai Tao called Bai Dashan again, gave him some stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets, and said, "This is to help digestion. See if any of the villagers are full and can take two tablets."
Originally, Bai Dashan thought that this was unnecessary as it was impossible to eat so much. However, he looked at the big guy rubbing his belly next to him, hesitated for a moment, and then went to do it obediently.
"Come on, come on, if anyone is full, come and get two stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets from me."
You can tell what it is used for just by hearing the name. The villagers who didn't need it smiled and waved their hands, while some villagers touched their stomachs, hesitated for a moment, and then went forward to line up.
Bai Dashan was cheerful at first, but when he saw that there were more than 20 people queuing up to get medicine, he immediately frowned and started cursing in displeasure.
"What's wrong with you? Are you afraid that today will be your last meal?" "No matter how delicious it is, we can't just ignore it. This is just our own people in the village. What if there are outsiders?"
"Others would think you were being treated harshly."
"How can I put my face like this?"
"If you get hurt, I'll have to trouble you again."
“Isn’t it embarrassing?!”
As he spoke, Bai Dashan pointed at these people with a look of disappointment and said, "Go back and copy the village rules for me a hundred times."
The villager who was scolded scratched his head in embarrassment and responded awkwardly.
Someone murmured quietly: "I'm just afraid of wasting it."
This statement earned a big eye roll from Bai Dashan.
After distributing the medicine to all the villagers who came to receive it, Bai Dashan thought about it and felt that he seemed to have accidentally eaten too much.
He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he quickly put two pills into his mouth, swallowed them, and then coughed twice to cover up. He glanced again to make sure no one was paying attention, and then went back to work.
After dinner, the villagers began to move into their new houses in a lively manner.
Most of the things have been moved in before, and today I just want to symbolically bring a few things into the new house to bring good luck and complete the ceremony.
Carrying a handful of rice ears symbolizes a good harvest and full granaries and yards.
Carrying a chicken and half a pound of honey means that the home is full of poultry and life is as sweet as honey.
Carrying a hoe symbolizes that the future will be more and more promising.
A fish basket is hung around the waist with an axe on it, symbolizing protecting the home and the village, and also meaning diligence.
Put these things in their proper places one by one, hang the red cloth strip in the fish basket on the door bolt, light firecrackers, and you're ready to move into the new house.
The villagers followed these procedures meticulously, devoutly and seriously.
It was Bai Tao's turn. She picked up a few things, looked at the things on the ground that she couldn't lift, and turned to look at the big guy.
The big guy came forward quickly: "Sister Bai, I'll do it, I'll do it, you go ahead and I'll follow you."
Xiao Ming thought about it, ran over, picked up a hen on the ground, held up the honey jar, and said, "Master, I'll hold this chicken."
Bai Tao nodded: "Okay."
The reason why she didn't carry the chicken was that she was afraid that the chicken would poop on her. Now that someone has taken over, why not do it?
Many villagers hurried into the new house and came to Taozhu courtyard. When they saw this scene, they were about to say something but were stopped by Aunt Liu.
"I am too small to carry these."
Sixth Aunt: "The rules don't say that you can't have someone help you."
Bai Dashan also nodded: "Yes, before we moved into the new house, our relatives, friends and neighbors helped us light the fire to warm the house."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Shanquan immediately squeezed in from the crowd and grabbed the torch in the brazier: "I'll do it! I'll light a fire to warm the house for you."
Bai Shanquan took the lead and without waiting for others to react, he quickly walked around the house upstairs and downstairs with the torch in his hands. After coming out, he ran around the Taozhu courtyard.
Bai Dashan, who was a step slower, looked at Bai Shanquan's back in annoyance. He was so angry that he blew his nose and glared, and he almost slapped his thigh.
There is one more chapter, which will be updated soon.
