Say so. Although I also have some regrets in my heart. I can look at the red plate of white sugar and tomatoes in front of me. Huai Sleeve still couldn't help but move his index finger. Use chopsticks to pick up a small piece and put it in your mouth.

The sweet sugar crystals are carefully crushed by the teeth. Melt with the sweet and sour mixture of ripe tomatoes. Huai Sleeve exhaled deeply. Sigh: "I don't remember how long I haven't eaten tomatoes mixed with sugar." Taste this again today. I don't know how many times sweeter than those grapefruit green grapes in the past. ”

Yingxue heard Huai Sleeve say this. Look back. See her sitting on a small stool. A satisfying look to eat. My heart was sour, and I quickly turned my face. Tears had fallen on the back of Kazumi's hand.

Yingxue knew that Huai Sleeve had never been very interested in eating. So now. She must have been pregnant. And there are so few things that can be eaten on weekdays.

Although Huai Sleeve usually smiles with her and Fu Quan. From leaving the palace to the present. I haven't shouted a single bitter word. Telling jokes to her and Fuquan more than in the palace. But right now, it's really bitter. But no matter how optimistic you are, you can't escape it.

Wai Sleeve ate half of the tomatoes. When you look up. saw Shen Wan walking in from outside with a white gauze hat in her hand.

At a glance, I saw the bamboo basket containing vegetables on the ground. Shen Wan smiled: "The hat was blown away by the wind. I'll see when I pick it up. The basket was gone. I was in a hurry. I thought someone had stolen this basket of vegetables. ”

Huai Sleeve smiled and let Shen Wan into the house. Poured her a cup of hot tea to warm her hands.

"It was the basket you put at the door. Such a long mountain road. These dishes are heavy again. Makes you bother. "When the sleeve speaks. Seeing the fine sweat on Shen Wan's forehead. I felt like I didn't go on purpose.

Shen Wan took a sip of tea. smiled: "I've been thinking about you since I went back." I wanted to come here for a long time. It's just late autumn. Vegetables grow extremely slowly. I'll talk to the sisters in the nunnery. They all asked me to send more. Unfortunately, this basket is the last harvest of the year. If you want to eat it, you have to wait until next year. ”

Yingxue came in with two yellow, orange and orange cornmeal sugar cakes. I couldn't help but laugh when I put it on the table.

"Before you came. The master said that he wanted to eat tomatoes. I turned around. I'm looking at this basket of yours. I thought it was the Lord of the Land who listened to our master's pity. I made a special trip to send it. ”

Yingxue's words. A few people laughed.

Shen Wan looked at the belly in her arms and seemed to be a little bigger than the last time. I'm embarrassed to ask. But he hesitated and still spoke: "Right now, it's getting colder and colder day by day." When the hell did this little guy in your belly come out? If it's in the depths of winter. It's a bit inconvenient. It's hard to get a stable face. ”

The sleeve caressed his stomach. smiled: "Fortunately, it's next spring." It's good to survive this winter. ”

A couple of people were chatting. Fuquan suddenly ran in from outside. Shake a bunch of mushrooms wrapped in clothes to the ground. He grinned, "Look. There are a lot of mushrooms in this mountain. I picked some back. Didn't the master want to eat? Let's have mushroom soup today. ”

Shen Wan possessed and picked up the mushrooms that Fuquan had picked back and looked at them. frowned and said, "Although there are many mushrooms in this mountain." But most of them are poisonous mushrooms. Need to be recognized. You see. This. And this one is all poisonous. Don't eat it. ”

Shen Wan picked out most of the poisonous mushrooms. The rest can be eaten. Ling Yingxue went to boil the soup.

Huai Sleeve smiled: "I still barely recognize Chinese medicine and tea." I can't tell if this mushroom is poisonous or not. Good thing you're here today. ”

Fuquan scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly. At a glance, I saw a few red tomatoes on the table. Eyes lit up. Then he asked, "Where did Mrs. Shi get these big red persimmons?" Our master wants to eat this for a while. I also asked Mrs. Shi to point me a place. I'm going to buy it. ”

Shen Wan smiled: "These dishes." It's all grown by our sisters in the nunnery. It's cold this year. Wait for next spring. I'm more diverse. and I will be able to give you some help. ”

Fuquan smiled: "Ugh." There's a good saying. What is it called giving mermaids. It's better to give someone a fishing rod. We will grow vegetables in the snow. It's better that Mrs. Shi will give us some of that vegetable next year. I carved out a piece of land for her in the back mountain. It also saves the teacher from carrying vegetables to the long mountain road. ”

Huai Sleeve and Shen Wan both laughed at his words. Huai sleeve said: "That sentence is called: It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish." But that's exactly the place you're using. ”

Fuquan blushed in embarrassment. He turned around and ran out to work.

Shen Wan said to Huai Sleeve: "These two people around you are quite clever. You've only been here for a little more than a month. This place is still in good order. ”

Looking at the sleeves, the bed was surrounded by a cotton cloth with white flowers on a blue background. Fuquan also ordered a bookshelf at the head of the bed with a wooden strip for Huai Sleeve. than the last time she came. It's changed again.

Holding the teacup in his sleeve, he lowered his eyes and smiled: "My current body." Nothing can be done. Let Yingxue and Fuquan suffer with me......"

Shen Wan raised her eyes and looked at her sleeve for a moment. Said: "I've learned some deviant techniques before. I see that you are a blessed man. You need to know that blessings are to be accumulated. You've lived this time. Blessing is coming. ”

Huai Sleeve smiled indifferently. Raise your hand to stroke your already high and bulging lower abdomen. The smile on his face was extraordinarily gentle.

"I've always wanted to have a baby. I felt that it was the flesh that had fallen from my body. No matter how it changes. He's always going to change. Now I've got what I wanted. As long as the child can be born safely. My life is complete. ”

In winter, it gets dark very early. Shen Wan had lunch. And the sun had turned to the west. I don't feel at ease. So he kept her for the night.

Fuquan is afraid that he will not sleep well with his sleeves. Two more wide templates were set up on the outside of the bed with sleeves. Spread a cotton mattress. Shen Wan slept with her sleeves at night.

In the evening, the three of them chatted around the fire. Shen Wan saw Yingxue picking out a few pieces of cut-out flower cloth. It's like sewing a child's clothes. So I leaned over and looked.

Yingxue was a little embarrassed to look at. smiled: "In the past, I was in the palace." The master's needlework is all done by Juanqiu and Qingmei. I'm clumsy. Never touch these. Now it's also catching ducks on the shelves. ”

Shen Wan took a look at a few pieces of clothes. smiled: "Your pieces of cloth have been cut out." It's just that it's all reversed. Sew out the clothes later. It's a piece of inside and a piece of face. ”

Sleeves looked at it and sneered. Yingxue rarely blushes. Scratching his head and laughing, "I just said I wouldn't cut clothes." It's a good cloth. They all called me a spoiler. ”

Shen Wan thought for a while and said, "Why don't I bring the fabric back." Ask some of the women in the nunnery to help make some small clothes. I think there are two quite ingenious ones. Even if they can't sew it. I can also ask the mothers-in-law in the village to do it. The folk customs in the mountains are simple. All are willing to help. ”
