Chapter 44 Why are you only scooping half a bowl of rice? (Part 2)

"Young people, don't look at you who only served half a bowl of rice, it's actually just to eat more!" Old Zhong shook his head and pointed at the men holding huge sea bowls not far away and said with a wry smile: "Young master, you don't know that it's good that these people can drink yi bowls of vegetable porridge in the morning, but it's strange that they can eat enough!"

Why is this half bowl of rice less than a full bowl of rice? Zhang Yi was surprised. Is it just to serve half bowl of rice or to eat more?

Seeing that Zhang Yi didn't understand, Lao Zhong met and said, "The main purpose of eating half a bowl of rice is to eat quickly. After finishing the bowl, you can go to the pot and then fill the second bowl!"

As the talker said, the old man had already finished the rice in the bowl. He ran to the rice cooker happily and held the spoon and stuffed the brown rice into his bowl. Not only did he stuff it, but he pressed it down hard. He ran back to the stone slab with the broth and continued to eat with the bunch of people.

Zhang Yi's eyes were almost glaring out. He thought that he could not eat half a bowl or out of politeness. He thought that everyone was starving to death!

The big headed sea bowl is still stuffing hard. Aren’t these bastards afraid of eating?

Just as I was about to ask Lao Zhong if there was not enough food, many men who had finished the bowl ran to the rice cooker and continued to add rice.

Although these people were petty, Zhang Yi found that they all followed the rules, that is, everyone would definitely eat all the last grain of rice in the bowl before they would get up, from the elderly to the young and even the children, no exception. Among the crowds squatting in front of them, there were only a small mouthful of mouth left in several bowls, but before they finished eating, they still wanted to get up very much, but they still waited until they swallowed the last grain of rice in the bowl into their stomachs.

Even if you can't afford to eat, you will follow the rules. Being able to stick to your true nature proves that these people are good people, at least they were good people before they deteriorate.

"Young master, have you seen it? These people are smart! Later, you can see if there is still food left in the pot and the cooking women will secretly bring the food back to those who are unable to work at home!"

"There is still left over for our meal?" Zhang Yi asked in confusion.

The ground was covered in sweat, and even the half-smashed hairy children ate more than Zhang Yi. He didn't believe that there would be leftovers in the pot after these guys had enough.

"Others don't have it, but ours must have it!" As he spoke, Lao Zhong couldn't help but stand up straight and said proudly: "Yesterday, the old lady told the rice to let the farmers eat. The rice in our house was full of white brown rice double steamed rice, and there was no chaff mixed with some bran. You don't know that our family is the only one in Jingyang!"

Zhang Yi did not expect that an old lady in her sixties and seventies would have such a long vision, which was simply a win over people’s hearts!

What do the merchants think most about? They are just to have a full stomach! Not to mention young and strong, even those old men who walk tremble and old ladies can come to the construction site to have a full stomach. This is kindness! In the morning, he wondered that even half-aged children work so enthusiastically, it turns out that they are all for a full meal!

In this era, people's hearts are undoubtedly the best thing, because with people's hearts, you can respond as long as you have something to do.

Just like Liu Bang was just a pavilion chief at the time, but he finally rebelled because of his good reputation of kindness... Of course, he talked too far, but he had to say that he had a heart and a good reputation was equivalent to opening a cheating plug-in.

Just watching others eat, the rice in my own bowl is cold. Because of the broth, I quickly put a layer of lard on it and threw the rice bowl to Lao Zhong. I couldn't eat it and it was a good environment.

After patting the dust on his butt, Zhang Yi prepared to observe how those women stole the remaining rice home from a distance.

Of course, stealing and peeping must be done quietly. If you know that the master is preparing to arrest you, who would dare to take action?

Until the end, a big belly man threw the last bit of rice into his mouth and announced that he would not add more rice. After the women next to the stove smiled. Soon three of them ran quickly to the distance. The remaining women pretended to be nothing and stood up slowly for a long patrol, and the rest began to get busy.

They first gathered the rice in each pot, then distributed it into several rice balls according to the number of people, covered it with a pot cover, and started to work hard to clean the surrounding area.

Soon the women who went to the woods came back with several huge lotus leaves. At this time, an elderly woman took out a handful of grass from her pocket and wrapped the rice balls covered in the pot and distributed them to each woman's hands.

However, just as the old woman was about to put her part in her chest, her face suddenly changed, and the lotus leaves in her hand fell to the ground with a sound of a slap.

The lotus leaf bag instantly split into pieces, and the white rice grains sprinkled on the ground...

"Sir, I...we..." The old woman knelt down at Zhang Yi, and she mumbled for a long time and couldn't even say anything.

Seeing the Lord's lord coming, the other women were shocked and lost their appearance. They all felt as if the five thunders were thundering, and they all knelt down one after another.

Stealing is definitely a derogatory term! In the criminal law, there are clauses such as theft that theft cannot be paid for money, 60 feet, yi Pijiayi, etc., 5 Pijiayi, 5 Pijiayi, etc., 5 Pijiayi, 5 Pijiayi, etc., 5 Pijiayi, 5 Pijiayi, etc., which shows how severe the Tang Dynasty is against the crime of stealing! What's more, the thief is still a woman. In this way, it means that he is not aware of his wife's morality, his virtue is absent, and his reputation is ruined!

Such women often have only one person to divorce their wives, especially in the countryside!

It can be imagined that after an elderly woman is divorced, her husband's family will not be allowed, and her relatives have no support, and she will have to endure countless fingers and rolling eyes. There is no way to go except for the end of their lives.

"It's shameful to waste food!" Seeing the rice grains on the ground, Zhang Yi's face quickly became gloomy, and he cursed at the old woman: "Why throw the best food on the ground? I think you are also from a farmhouse family. As the saying goes, you should think that it is hard to come by; half a thread, always thinking about material resources. Although these are leftovers, don't you know how to take them home for the elderly and children to eat?

I don’t know how to cherish my blessings after living such a big age! If I let the Lord next time, I will not use it after I see you throwing food around!"
