Chapter 23 Cooking Mung Bean Soup

I was speechless.

There is always a bit of boredom after a long time of leisure, and my husband and I discussed that it is better to go back to our old profession, familiar and comfortable.

I nodded naturally, remembering that when we were in the village, our days were very comfortable, working at sunrise, plowing at sunset, and leisurely.

But I didn't expect that my husband would come to a big game, and such ambition is not like the husband I knew before......

But he touched my head: "Qiu'er, I always feel that I don't give you enough, it's not good enough......"

It was rare to see him serious, I leaned on my husband's arms and said with a smile: "Everything I have is given by my husband, Qiu'er is satisfied, as long as we are together." ”

My husband rubbed my hair and smiled lightly: "Qiu'er is a silly girl, what can you do if I'm gone?" ”

What came later? I never thought about it, shook my head, and said casually, "Where else can you go?" ”

"Anyway, I have to save more money for my family Qiu'er, so that she can live a carefree life in the future!" The husband lowered his head and gave me a deep kiss, and I suddenly found that there was more gray hair on his head~

Looking closer, I always feel that his appearance has changed a little, maybe there are more shallow wrinkles at the corners of his eyes?

Is time a good thing? It allows us to meet, and sneak away inadvertently, the sun rises and sets, and the people around us suddenly change their faces~

But...... Why am I still the same as before? If you suddenly don't feel happy, won't you be able to stay together?

Now that he has the money, he plans to build a Zhuangzi, where he can live and grow something, which is a good idea, and it can be used as our paradise in the future.

But where to build and have to take some thought, the husband said that Zhuangzi to build a bigger one, look around, only the end of the village there is vacant land, say that the good thing is that there are mountains and water there is also good, not good is that there is a mountain behind the mountain, there is water, it can be said that it is a barren mountain and a wild ridge, from the head of the village to the end of the village also takes a lot of effort.

The husband patted his waist and said with a smile: "Now we are also full of money, and we will have to go out in the future?" When the time comes, you will be matched with two maids, and then you will have a sedan chair, isn't that the scenery? ”

Without waiting for me to be happy, the husband added: "However, this has to wait for the future, the lady will have to suffer for a few days first, and when the Zhuangzi is built, I plan to have some side dishes, and then some flowers and plants to sell, and then I will buy you the money I earn." ”

Flowers? Can this be profitable? Shouldn't eat, shouldn't drink, I shook my head secretly, but my husband didn't care, and said confidently: "Lady, you just wait to eat and drink spicy!" ”

Just do it, as soon as the husband said that he wanted to build a Zhuangzi, the people in the village immediately responded, after all, he followed the husband for more than a month, but it was worth the silver earned in the previous months, compared to Tian Erniu, the salary has been reduced, so in contrast, they naturally remembered the benefits of the husband, and said that they could make a lot of money with the husband.

We naturally will not lose people, a day to give a hundred of the wages of the clerk, although the wages are higher, but are all villagers, they do the work is really hard, although the labor cost is higher, but rely on the unique terrain, build the wall, build the house of the silver did not spend at all, are dug down from the back of the mountain, if the silver is said, it is some bricks and tiles, so it also saves a lot of silver.

In the scorching summer, my husband also worked with the villagers, I was bored on the side, and Uncle Xu was a ghost after all, and he naturally couldn't stand it under such a scorching sun, so he hid in the deep mountains and old forests behind him early to find coolness, and when he left, he also told us: We must build a good house for him, otherwise he will eat us.

In this regard, I was disdainful, watching my husband only wear a short gown, and a thin pair of pants underneath had been pulled up to the knees, but large drops of sweat fell from my forehead, and from time to time I wiped my forehead with a towel around my neck, but I sat in the shade of the tree to enjoy the shade, and the wind blowing at this time was also with a hot breath, which made people breathless, and it was conceivable that the husband and they were even more so.

If you don't show at this time, when will you wait?

I had a flash of inspiration in my mind, I thought of a way, and ran back home, planning to make some mung bean soup for my husband, although I was in a hurry last time, but now it's different, I haven't eaten pork and seen pigs run, my husband has cooked so many times, I just look at it, it's not simple?

Rolling up my sleeves, I found mung beans in the barrel, and thought about the steps that my husband had done before, by the way, he said, this mung bean soup is mainly soup, and drinking it will quench the heat and quench thirst. It's hard for me!

It's easy to see, but it's really hard to do, when I'm ready to live, I can't light a fire, I patted my head, by the way, my husband said to take a Mingzi to start the fire, said that it was Mingzi, in fact, it is the root of a pine tree, very flammable, use the fire fold to ignite Mingzi, in the wood pile under the stove, to start the fire.

I followed my husband's approach, and sure enough, there was a trace of fire, but the flame with a blue light dimmed again, slowly turned into a wisp of white smoke, and scattered in all directions~

Tossing like this for a while, the heat on my back a layer of sweat, but also more and more impatient, and then repeat the steps that had just been ignited again, this time much smoother, the flame finally turned red, but only a small cluster in the middle of the constant shaking, I stared intently for fear of turning into a puff of smoke, busy is to light a few more Mingzi, this work is not as light as it seems, the husband only needs one can be lit, sometimes even not, now I have stuffed seven or eight at once, although this fire can be regarded as a little stronger.

When the sweat droplets fell from my forehead to the tip of my nose, I wiped it casually, only to find that I was sweating profusely, but it was counted, and I breathed a long sigh of relief, "Ahem! However, there is some choking here~

My feet are also a little numb, I don't know how long I've been squatting~ I got up and stomped my feet, "Oops", this waist also hurts, it's really not easy, these jobs are very obedient in the hands of my husband, but to me......

When I was sighing, I saw that there was no water in the pot, and I was in a hurry, so I forgot about it, and I was busy picking up the scoop and preparing to scoop a few scoops of water into the pot.

But when I looked up, the surroundings were like a fairyland, just, just a little choking, too much smoke slipped out, but I could still bear it, first boil the mung bean soup and then say, after making up my mind, I couldn't help but "cough" twice.

As soon as I touched the water tank, there was a bang, and suddenly, my mind went blank, and everything was still.

"Qiu'er, what are you stupid about, climb quickly!" The widow dragged me out of the room......

I spit out a mouthful of water, sneezed a lot, and looked at the widow Wang angrily, but I really didn't know what to say when I saw her face full of concern, and she was still shaking my hand at this time, and asked nervously: "Don't be afraid, Qiu'er, there is a sister-in-law!" ”

"Poof" I laughed out loud, pouted, gently pushed her, and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm making mung bean soup, but the smoke is a little bigger, I don't want to light the house~"

"Huh?" Widow Wang's eyes widened, she was stunned for a while, and then couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh for a moment, seeing my somewhat resentful eyes, she covered her mouth with her hand, forced a smile, and said, "Qiu'er, I'm really embarrassed......"

I waved my hand and said with a smile: "I know that my sister-in-law is also kind, but my sister-in-law has to teach me to cook this mung bean soup~"

Widow Wang smiled and said, "No problem, wrap it up on me!" ”

With the help of the widow Wang, everything went very smoothly, it took half an hour of hard work to boil the mung beans soft and glutinous, and the soup was many, very relieving the heat, the first time I made this mung bean soup, I couldn't wait to serve a bowl, first into the stomach: "Wow! It's delicious! ”

"Of course, it's better to make it yourself, after all, the hard work is here." The widow smiled and took the mung bean soup from the wooden barrel, and asked me to bring some bowls, saying that she would send them with me.

I wanted to take the barrel, but Widow Wang waved her hand and smiled: "Qiu'er, your small body will definitely not be moved, and I don't think Jiuchen has let you do any work, so it is even more impossible to lift it." ”

As long as my husband is here, I have never mentioned such a heavy object, but the weather is so hot, the widow Wang taught me to boil mung bean soup, and I want to carry it over, isn't it too ignorant, I gritted my teeth and grabbed it, and found that the mung bean soup in the hands of the widow Wang was a little laborious, and I didn't feel heavy in my hands, and today I knew that I had such strength.

With a soup bucket in one hand and a few bowls in the other, I tried to walk around and nodded: "It's not bad, I'm not tired at all." ”

When I looked at Widow Wang again, her mouth was already open, and she looked at the two wooden barrels I was holding in my hands, and blinked: "I have to use two hands to pick up the soup bucket in this physique, and you are still so easy with this hand!" ”

I smirked: "Born with divine powers!" ”

The weather is still good at home, and since I can handle it alone, I will not bother the widow to accompany me.

From home to Zhuangzi at the end of the village, but after walking a lot, I heard the voice of my husband before I arrived, he was looking for me, constantly calling my name, although I was carrying something in my hand, I didn't feel tired, raised my hand and said, "I'm here!" ”

My husband's ears are very clever, and after I finished speaking, his figure appeared beside me, to be exact, he ran over, looking at his nervous appearance, I couldn't help laughing: "I can't lose it." ”

But the back of his gown was already wet, and when I got close to me, I could smell a heavy smell of sweat, and his face was as if he had just washed his face, he must have been too tired, and I couldn't laugh when I saw him like this.

lifted the soup bucket in his hand and said to him: "Husband, sister-in-law Wang taught me to make it, it's delicious!" ”

He didn't even look at me, he hugged me tightly, and I heard the thumping sound in his chest.
