"Poof—"

Han Leng couldn't help but squirt out a mouthful of soup, but fortunately, Han Leng turned his head in time, so the squirted soup didn't spray into the dishes in front.

"Ahem...... "Ahem" took a few tissues and wiped his mouth.

Mama Xu took a clean rag and wiped the table while saying strangely, "What's wrong with you?" Why do you laugh? ”

Han Leng stood up and held the bowl, and sat on the other side, so that Xu Ma could clean up the table.

"You just said that you cast a body like steel, this makes me laugh." Han Leng explained.

Mother Xu was puzzled: "Is there anything wrong with what I said?" ”

Han Leng shook his head: "No...... It's just that ordinary women don't say they have a body of steel, and this is the first time I've heard it. ”

Mother Xu: "But which of our women in the countryside is not a good worker." Farming, farming, going up to the mountains to clear the wasteland, going down to the fields to carry burdens, what men can do, we women can do. On the contrary, many men are lazy and lazy, and they are placed at home like a Buddha every day, which makes people annoyed when they look at it. ”

Han Leng: "Ahem..... Nor can we generalize and say that men are like this. After all, your husband is not very hardworking, and the old man in your family who is over 70 years old is also alive and well, if it weren't for him and your mother-in-law, you wouldn't be able to come here as a nanny. Anyway, you kept saying that your parents-in-law treated you badly, and why did you reconcile later? ”

Mother Xu sighed: "After all, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are elders, and although I hate many of their opinions, I will not listen to them, and even scold them." But after all, it's my family, my husband is gone, and I have to provide for them no matter what. ”

She picked up the basin with sewage and said with a smile: "Actually, until now, I still have a lot of trouble with those two old people, and I will have a quarrel after meeting for a while." Now if the two boys don't go back on the weekend, I won't go back so that I won't quarrel with them again. ”

Han Leng couldn't help but sigh a little.

At the beginning, this Xu Ma not only had to endure the criticism of the villagers, but also had to endure endless difficulties from her parents-in-law, and more importantly, the family did not have much money left, and the milk powder money for the two children was almost gone.

If you have children to take and can't go out to work, you can only grow vegetables and fish or contract to plant fruits in the mountains and forests, and you need to go through various procedures for fish farming and fruit forests, and you have to go through the consent of the villagers.

Under the calamity of internal and external affairs, Xu Ma relied on her strong will not to admit defeat, and actually reclaimed a few acres of land from a barren mountain for planting vegetables.

There was no water source halfway up the mountain, so she ran to a ditch a few hundred meters away, where she carried water uphill, and then ran to a thatched hut two miles away to pick up dung.

"How much water do you have to pick up that day? How much dung? Han Leng who was sitting at the end of the table said curiously.

Mother Xu, who was sitting at the other end of the table, thought about it, shook her head and said, "I can't remember clearly, and I didn't go out of my way to remember it." It's just desperately picking, doing desperately, from morning to night, not tired and half-dead, I don't dare to stop. The scorching sun in summer, the cold wind and snow in winter, and the endless killing of all kinds of vegetable insects can make me sad to death. ”

Han Leng admired: "It's really amazing." ”

Mother Xu smiled: "No, if it's not powerful, you wouldn't have recommended me to be Xiaoyan's nanny and bodyguard." ”

"Hahaha, but it's not all because of your strength and hard work." Han sneered, "The biggest reason why my mother recommended you to me is because you are pure and honest. Many women in the village love to chew their tongues behind their backs, and they look good on the surface, but behind their backs, they don't want to see other people's jokes and poke other people's backbones. ”

"Sister Bi praised me too well, I'm actually not that kind, it's just because life is forced to do so, and I don't have time to think about anything else. If I were like other women, playing cards and eating melon seeds all the time except during the busy farming hours, I might be like them. Xu Ma said.

Han Leng: "But since you became Yanyan's nanny, you haven't been so busy, it's been so many years, and you haven't become like them." ”

Xu Ma smiled: "I think, this should be regarded as the red and black who are close to Zhu." Watching Xiaoyan study diligently and study knowledge all day long, under the influence of her ears and eyes, she will also have a desire to do something meaningful. Then, I found my passion, which is cooking. In my free time, I visit chefs from all over the world, from internationally famous restaurants to nameless stalls on the side of the road. I'm willing to humbly ask for advice. ”

Han Leng: "But you were rejected if you didn't shoot?" ”

Mother Xu smiled: "If I cared about these false things, I wouldn't have been able to stay in the village a long time ago." And in the years of selling vegetables, I have also dealt with all kinds of people, and I am not angry once or twice, I am used to it. Anyway, one of the ten visits was willing to teach me, which would be enough to offset the rejection or even bad words of the other nine. ”

Han Leng admired: "Your mentality is so good, I have to learn like you." ”

Mother Xu sighed again: "After a lot of hardships, I got such a mentality." How many people have sunk in suffering, and there are also many who have fallen into despair and given up on themselves. You see my number mentality, but you don't see the fate of those who are in the same situation as me. I hope that your generation can be unfettered, dare to love and hate, and live a chic life much better than me. ”

After a pause, she smiled again: "I've been with you cultural people for a long time, and I've become a chattering person, and sure enough, it's the red who is close to Zhu and the black who is close to ink." ”

"Yanyan and I are also very fond of cooking thanks to your influence. Speaking of which, we still have a lot of gratitude for your teaching, without you, neither of us would have been able to put oil and salt seasonings. Han Leng sincerely thanked.

Mother Xu waved her hand: "Where is it, I just said a few words casually, and you will learn, you are all smart!" It's not like I'm lying, you know I'm not the kind of person who likes to beat around the bush, so you're really smart, and you're all a little bit clear, I want to ask, have you ever tested your IQ? I think both of you have IQs over two hundred. I heard that some supplements can increase IQ, and I want to buy some supplements for my two stupid boys. ”

Han sneered: "There shouldn't be." Anyway, I think I'm at a normal level, and IQ doesn't determine everything, so there's no need to blindly superstitious about that. As for those who increase their IQ, they are basically all liars, don't believe it! Even if it is really good for intelligence, it is absolutely minimal, far from the level of changing a person. So don't be deceived. ”

Mother Xu's eyes widened, she listened seriously, and after listening to Han Leng's words, she was surprised: "Is this the case?" Oops, I was almost fooled by that guy yesterday into buying that supplement, but fortunately I didn't have any money in my pocket, and I didn't feel comfortable using those high-tech payment methods, otherwise I would have really bought those tens of thousands of dollars. ”

At this time, Han Leng's ears moved, and then he got up and looked at the door.

"There is a sound on the other side of the door, it should be Yeon-yeon who has returned."
