Chapter 6 The Rice with Clear Soup and Little Water
Seeing this, Shu Jin withdrew his mental strength, rubbed the corners of his eyebrows, and felt very weak, the Fang family is like this, and the Chai family is also like this, she and Chai Yanfeng really have a "fate", and they are all such a superb family.
"What's wrong with you?"
Just thinking about it, Chai Yanfeng's voice sounded on the side. Shu Jin didn't speak for a while, he thought she was uncomfortable.
Shu Jin looked at the person in front of him, he was too thin, his cheeks were sunken, his face was pale, his lips were also pale, and the only thing that seemed to be pleasing to the eye was a pair of eyebrows. This is the only part that doesn't diminish his brilliance because of his paleness.
So, she turned her gaze to meet his eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "Tell me about the situation of the family and the people in the village, lest I make a mistake unconsciously." ”
Chai Yanfeng was a little surprised, but then smiled, she was willing to ask him this question, because she had the heart to settle in this family. So, he began to patiently tell her about the situation at home and in the village.
The two chatted in the room, and at noon, Chai Yanping's daughter-in-law Wu came, and it turned out that she was delivering food. She brought two large porcelain bowls, Shu Jin opened the door and took a look, it was two bowls of gruel.
It's really rare! Gruel! After Shu Jin confirmed with Chai Yanfeng, he knew that this was all their lunch.
As a result, Shu Jin had a further understanding of the harshness of the Chai family. She didn't say anything, just brought the porridge bowl to the table, put it on the dilapidated dining table in the house, and then went to help Chai Yanfeng.
Although Chai Yanfeng is very thin, he is an adult man after all, so how can he weigh hundreds of catties. He thought that with Shu Jin's thin body bones, it would take a lot of effort to help him up, but he didn't expect that she just lifted one of his arms and grabbed his waist with one hand, and easily dragged him away from the bed board, and then dragged him to the table in a few steps and put him on the chair to sit down.
Chai Yanfeng, who hadn't been in contact with a woman for a long time, was suddenly approached by Shu Jin, and reflexively held his breath. Fortunately, the house was small enough, and the two of them quickly took their places. It was only when he sat down in his chair that he regained his breath, and found that the fragrance of her head was lingering in his nose for just a moment. He inhaled secretly, and felt the air in his lungs smell like the sun.
Shu Jin didn't pay attention to his small movements, but also sat down and drank porridge with Chai Yanfeng one by one. With Shu Jin's amount of rice, a bowl of porridge with clear soup and water was not enough at all, so she took a look at the food of the Chai Xiong Ye family.
Sure enough, it was different from the two of them: although it was not a big fish or meat, there were also three boiled vegetables, and each of them ate a big steamed bun with a bowl of sticky porridge.
Looking at it this way, their rice is obviously the water from the porridge pot!
"Did you eat this every day in the past?" She asked.
Chai Yanfeng was slowly scooping up the rice grains in the bowl with chopsticks, and when he heard the words, he was silent for a moment before saying: "I stay in the room every day, don't do anything, and don't eat much." ”
After speaking, he looked at the porridge he had drunk two sips of, and then looked at Shu Jin's bowl that had bottomed out, "If you don't dislike it, give you some of mine." ”
Shu Jin was indeed not full, but looking at Chai Yanfeng's thin fingers like bamboo branches, she shook her head and still refused: "No, you can eat." ”
It seems that if you don't want to go hungry, you have to find a way.
Chai Yanfeng didn't insist anymore, and quietly cleaned up the rice grains in his bowl of porridge, but put down the chopsticks without drinking up the remaining soup.
Shu Jin was a little puzzled, but when her eyes swept over Chai Yanfeng's legs, she suddenly became clear.
Chai Yanfeng's legs are inconvenient, and it is troublesome to go to the toilet or something, if he drinks this bowl of soup, I believe that he will go to the thatched house in less than half an hour.
So, in line with the choice of not wasting food, Shu Jin raised his hand to pick up the bowl used by Chai Yanfeng and drank the rest of the thin soup.
This move made Chai Yanfeng really stunned for a moment.
What he thought was that although the two were nominally husband and wife, in fact, they had only met for the first time today, and she had refused before, perhaps because she had drunk this porridge herself. But now, it doesn't seem to be.
Almost just two of them have just eaten, barely eaten. Just as the two of them had finished lunch, Ye's voice rang out outside the door.
"Yanfeng's family! Eat and drink enough and hide in the house to do something! Come out for me! "The tone is very impulsive, as if he is looking for fault.
Shu Jin walked to the door, raised his hand casually and opened the door, looking at the Ye family outside.
Ye Shi looked at Shu Jin who opened the door, saw that her expression was calm, and was stunned, then reacted, and said with his head raised:
"How can you eat and drink enough and still want to stay still? Don't think you don't have to work the first day, hurry up and go to work with us! ”
After saying that, like an old hen who won a fight, he turned his head and left.
Shu Jin was speechless, turned around and went back to the house.
really let Chai Yanfeng say it, and sure enough, the work in the field can't fall on her.
Shu Jin took the bowl used by the two of them, turned his head to see Chai Yanfeng's face, and when he saw his pale as paper, he knew that he must not see the sun all year round, and sat in the house every day. So he asked:
"Now that the sun isn't so big, do you want to go and sit in the yard?"
Now the sun has gone west, and it is not very poisonous, so the Ye family chose this time to work in the fields.
So Shu Jin felt that this poor man should be allowed to bask in the sun.
Shu Jin's words obviously surprised Chai Yanfeng, but sitting in the house every day was really too depressing. Shu Jin's words can be regarded as playing into his arms. So he nodded and said, "Okay, that's bothering you." ”
So Shu Jin took a chair and put it in a sunny place outside the house, and then went back to the house to help Chai Yanfeng out. Only then did he take the bowls of the two of them, send them to the main room, and then go to the ground with Ye and the others.
When Shu Jin saw a golden wheat field in front of him, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
It's wheat, a large field with wheat that can be ground into flour!
In the last days, food is hard to find, and wheat like this is only planted again after five or six years in the last days, but in terms of supply, not everyone can eat it.
So, when she saw the wheat trees growing all over the field, she felt heartfelt happy.
"Look at it! Just know stupid to stand and watch! What a fool! How can you harvest with your eyes? ”
In a daze, Ye Shi scolded, stepped forward and pushed Shu Jin, and then stuffed a sickle into her hand.
I have to say that after the Ye family had just finished talking nonsense with Chai Ying Guo's family, he really started his own little Jiujiu. However, the idea that had just started made Chai Yanfeng and Chai Ying pout back. Chai Ying and Guo have a promising son, she can't afford to provoke her, and now that Chai Yanfeng is not in front of her, she has no choice but to sprinkle her anger on Shu Jin.
