The next morning, Rui Xue woke up in Zhao Fengnian's arms, her intuition was very heavy, she reached out and touched it, as if she was swollen, and then looked at Zhao Fengnian in her sleep with frowns, and there was a little blue and black under her eyes, one hand stretched out over her neck, and the other hand held his waist, completely protective posture.

She was stunned for a long time, thinking of her worries yesterday, those inexplicable noises, as if the tense string in her heart suddenly loosened, and the surging up was full of guilt, but she was pregnant with a child, and it was not the end of the world, why was she so pessimistic, this is not her Qin Ruixue's temperament, she was thrown into the desert, and she was also a person who wanted to cook with cactus, how could she make the days in front of her sad for the unpredictable tomorrow, it was really stupid, it seemed, or these days were too idle!

She gently propped herself up, kissed Zhao Fengnian on the forehead, and then dressed and walked out of the house, Caiyun Caiyue, was waiting in the hall, saw that it was Mrs. out, they were slightly stunned, and immediately stepped forward to help her go to the east side of the bathroom to wash her face, Rui Xue asked about yesterday's banquet, and listened to it very smoothly and relieved, so that Caiyue went to the stove to see what other ingredients, Caiyun took a horn comb to curl her hair, and when her hair was curled, Caiyue also came back, and said crisply, "Madam, there is half a basket of wild vegetables in the stove, a piece of pork belly, There are also six or seven steamed buns left. ”

Rui Xue thought about it and said, "It's enough for our family to eat in the morning, let's go, cook with me." “

Caiyue smiled and ran out first, she is stubborn, some talent for cooking, these days with Cui Niang and Zhang's sister-in-law, has learned a few things, always heard them say, their own wife cooks better than the chef in the city, I have been curious, today can give Mrs. a hand, by the way to learn the craft, naturally happy.

Caiyun boiled porridge on the fire, Caiyue picked wild vegetables, and went to the workshop in the front yard to get a piece of tofu that was still steaming, and reported when he came back, "Madam, the dishes in the morning in the big kitchen are bone tofu soup and steamed buns. ”

Rui Xue liked her cleverness, praised a sentence, and the little girl's subordinates were more diligent, cut the pork belly into thin slices, fried with cabbage into a sweet and sour taste, blanched the wild vegetables with their hands, cooled in water, added tofu cubes, mixed with sesame oil, salt, and tender green shallots, which were beautiful and delicious.

The leftover steamed buns from last night are not steamed in the pot, cut into thick slices, dipped in egg juice with fine salt, and fried in an oil pan until golden brown and fluffy.

I don't know if it's because of the guilt in my heart, Rui Xue wants to vomit when she smells the smell of oil smoke on weekdays, but today she doesn't react at all, and even the corners of her mouth are always smiling, making food for her beloved is a happy thing.

Zhao Fengnian woke up and saw Rui Xue, his face turned white with shock, and he didn't care about wearing a coat, so he ran out of the door barefoot, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Rui Xue putting dishes on the dining table, and he was stunned for a while, not knowing what to say.

Rui Xue looked at him like this, she was amused in her heart, and her apologies were deeper, if it weren't for the ruthlessness she tossed yesterday, a cold and indifferent person like him would not have rushed out in disheveled clothes.

"Shopkeeper, wash first, and then eat, I made your favorite wild vegetables mixed with tofu."

Zhao Fengnian nodded stunnedly, and when he stepped back and closed the door, he felt that his feet were cold, and his face was immediately embarrassed, and he hurriedly went back to find clothes and shoes.

Ruixue was disgusted, "Don't go and prepare the toiletries yet." ”

Caiyun Caiyue was just about to respond, Wu Yu ran back from outside the second gate like a gust of wind, half of the dew was stained on the dark practice clothes, and his head was also full of sweat beads. ”

Rui Xue knocked him on the head twice, "But if you run, why are you embarrassed like a beggar, and you don't go to wash and change your clothes." ”

Wu Yu smiled flatteringly, rushed to the bathroom to wash up, and then went back to the room to change clothes.

When the family of three sat at the dining table and ate, it was already a quarter of an hour later, but fortunately, the weather was already warm, and they were not afraid that the food would be too cold.

Wu Yu had the heart to please his sister, and praised the good taste while eating, but was knocked by Rui Xue again, so that he could be quieted down, Zhao Fengnian lowered his head to eat, and glanced at Rui Xue's face from time to time, seeing that she had indeed returned to her former appearance, her heart was like going to a big stone, and she naturally ate more food.

After the family had breakfast, Zhao Fengnian went to the front yard, did not take inventory and ignored the carriages and horses that came to pick up the goods, but called the two boys, Da Zhuang and Heizi, and went out together, and came back with a smile on his face.

In the afternoon, when the workshop was free, he asked Zhang Dahe and others to help, and the three-year-old laurel tree under the hill outside the village was dug up more than a dozen and planted in a corner of the East Garden, and most of the vegetable fields in the south also bloomed.

Rui Xue didn't see his figure for a day, and at dinner, he asked, "Is the workshop busy?" ”

Zhao Fengnian smiled and didn't answer, in the end persuaded her to drink half a bowl of goat's milk, and then took her hand to the East Garden, pointed to the newly planted laurel trees, and said, "The workshop is busy these days, I can't take care of these laurel trees, and in the future, you will take the colorful clouds and the moon and water them more, and when our children are born and grow up, they can sit and play in the shade of the laurel trees." Or if you prefer, find a few carpenters, make some wooden tables and chairs, and arrange it as you like. ”

Rui Xue nodded happily, thinking that in the future when the osmanthus is in full bloom, she sits under the tree and drinks tea, teaching the children to read, the wind blows off the osmanthus flowers, and the flowers fall down one by one, the scene must be beautiful.

Zhao Fengnian was happy to see her, and his heart was more confident, and he pointed to the vegetable field and said with a smile, "A few of us and the workshop have to eat vegetables, we can't always take it from the Gao family and the Zhang family, I have opened a new half an acre of new fields, you want to see what to plant." ”

"Ah, if you don't mention it, I'll forget to grow vegetables. If you go a few days later, you will miss the weather. Whoever goes into the city tomorrow and comes back with some rapeseeds, cucumbers, eggplants, peppers, leeks..."

Rui Xue was thinking about it, and at the same time pulled Zhao Fengnian back to make a list, Zhao Fengnian smiled and helped her, echoing two sentences from time to time.

On the second day, Wu Yu and Da Zhuang Heizi were arrested and labored, digging pits, counting seeds, cultivating soil, watering, together with Caiyun Caiyue, they were busy all morning before planting vegetables, and even planted two longbao grains on the side of the wall, waiting for the stick to be boiled and eaten.

At this point, Ruixue gets up early to eat every day, and then goes to take care of the vegetable garden and laurel trees, takes care of some family affairs such as the past in the afternoon, goes to see Kexin in the evening, and occasionally takes a carriage to the dock shop to see.

Zhao Fengnian was very proud of his response in private, so in early May, the two went into the city to find a doctor to diagnose the pulse, and the old doctor's medical skills were not adulterated, and he actually mentioned that Ruixue was a little cold, and prescribed two pairs of warm and tonic medicines.

Rui Xue and the others naturally guessed that this cold disease was actually caused by the cold poison on Zhao Fengnian's body brought by the child, and the three points of luck they originally held in their hearts were completely shattered.

Both husband and wife are worried that each other will feel uncomfortable, one is clamoring to buy candied fruit, buy snacks, remember that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, but also to buy zongzi leaves and Jiang rice, jujubes, all kinds of fillings, the other is smiling and accompanying, the city is crazy to find, in the end, the jujube red horse is so tired that he almost didn't break his hooves, pulled a cart of things home, and was liberated.

Cui Niang saw so many things, and her eyes were shocked, Rui Xue smiled and waved her hand, "It's going to be the Dragon Boat Festival, let's make zongzi these days, and everyone will go back with some shares." ”

Everyone was naturally happy when they heard this, Pomegranate and Yingzi all ran up to help carry it, and the Jiang Mi that sank a little bit and the like, and the clever Yun Xiaoliu carried it.

Several children heard that they wanted to make zongzi, and they all ran back to see the excitement, Ruixue stuffed them with a jar of candied fruit, and ran to the East Garden under the laurel tree like a swarm to eat.

After eating at noon, Rui Xue took a nap, then got up and commanded to step on the clouds and soak the river rice, the two little girls couldn't even eat the bread cakes at home before, where had they eaten zongzi, they were so happy that their little faces were red, and they were all trotting all the way to work.

On the second day, Aunt Yun and Cui Niang came to help, Rui Xue only sat on the bench and demonstrated three or four, they learned about the same, so they didn't let her touch her hands anymore, so she had to hug Kexin, and sit with Osmanthus to eat snacks and talk.

Second Aunt Yun remembered the news she heard last night, quietly glanced at Rui Xue, and after thinking about it for a while, she decided to talk about it, after all, she couldn't hide it, so she smiled and said, "I heard that my father went to meet his daughter-in-law yesterday, and I don't know which woman it is?" ”

Cui Niang received her eyes, so she answered, "I also heard about it, it seems to be the seventh mother of the Liu family in Dongshan Pass." ”

Rui Xue paused, and asked, "Then Liu Qiniang's conduct is good?" ”

Second Aunt Yun and Cui Niang glanced at each other before saying, "Well, we don't live in the same village as her, so it's not too clear." However, this Liu Qiniang has six brothers, and they are old girls, so she must be a favored one at home. ，”

Rui Xue's brows furrowed even deeper, she looked down at the sleeping Ke Xin, and asked, "Since she is a favored person, how can she agree to want to see Qian in charge?" ”

It stands to reason that men want to find a house, unless the family is rich and noble, and can marry a yellow flower girl, otherwise most of them are looking for a single widow, the money and black charcoal are not good-looking, the family is not very rich, and the deceased wife still left a little daughter, how can the Liu family agree to marry the pampered little daughter?

"I heard that the old couple of the Liu family and several brothers all wanted to find a good mother-in-law for Qi Niang, but they picked and chosen, and there was no one who agreed, so it was delayed, Qi Niang is twenty years old this year, and she can't marry again." Pomegranate's maiden home is Dongshan Ao, and when I heard everyone talk, I couldn't help but interject.

Cui Niang smiled, "If this family affair is done, but my father will have someone to help him in the future, six brothers-in-law, who would dare to bully?" ”

Second Aunt Yun is old and knowledgeable, so she pouted and retorted, "If you are enlightened and reasonable, it is fine, but if you only know how to protect your shortcomings, wouldn't the money manager fall into the fire pit, and you will have to provide for a daughter-in-law." ”
