Chapter 10: Hawthorn Cake

Yang looked at Shangguan Xi lovingly, stretched out his hand to touch his head, and retracted when he saw his dirty hand. There was a kind smile on the old face.

"This kid is really sensible. Xi'er Niang, you have to treat him well. It is normal for little dolls to get sick easily when they are young. You can't listen to other people's nonsense. Yang remembered how difficult it was to take care of his son alone when he was young, and his cloudy eyes were full of memories. Back then, the kid in my family was also sick at every turn, and I had no money to treat him, so I could only stay up with him. At that time, I wanted to die. Later, I met a barefoot doctor, who taught me how to know herbs and how to boil medicines, and in this way, he snatched him back from Lord Yama day by day. It's a pity that I didn't expect that the barefoot doctor was a miracle doctor. If I had known that he had such ability, I would have asked his name clearly, so that I could light a longevity lamp for him in front of the Buddha. ”

"It's the instinct of a healer to save lives. I think that kind doctor has saved many people, and he never thought of being grateful! My aunt has this heart, and it is the same to be grateful to him in my heart. When Meng Yuxuan said this, she suddenly had an idea. There are a lot of books in her space, and since Yang can learn the ability to read herbs from the barefoot doctor, can she also use the medical books in the space to learn medical skills? Don't pressure yourself with more skills! Medicine is a very useful science.

When she was in the Li family before, she saw many aunts and main rooms who used medical skills to harm people in order to compete for favor. She doesn't use medical skills to harm others, she just wants to use medical skills to save people and save herself.

"I'm home." Yang took the firewood from Meng Yuxuan's hand. "I'm really bothering you. You carried such a heavy load on your own and helped me carry so much firewood back. Since you have arrived at the door, it is better to go in and drink some water before leaving. My aunt doesn't have tea to entertain, don't dislike it. ”

"Auntie, don't be so polite. Everyone is a villager, and there will be many places where you need your aunt's help in the future! I don't drink the water. There's a guy over there, and it's your son, right? Meng Yuxuan pointed to the young man walking on the opposite side of the field and said.

Yang's eyes were not good, and she didn't recognize the appearance until the young man approached.

"Feng'er, it's really you! When Xi'er Niang said it was you, I still thought that today was not the day you came back. Yang greeted him and took the basket from the boy's hand.

When the young man saw Meng Yuxuan, who was beautiful, his originally somewhat decadent face suddenly turned a little red, and a look of surprise and admiration flashed in his eyes.

"This is the newly married sister-in-law Meng, right? Xiaosheng Chen Lingfeng has seen his sister-in-law. Just now, I saw my sister-in-law help my mother come back with firewood. Thank you so much. "Chen Lingfeng, like most scholars, has the sour and rotten spirit of a scholar in his bones. They like to wear white, which represents their noble status. and pretended to be polite, but in fact, I felt very contrived after seeing too much.

Meng Yuxuan saw the most is Li Xuan, the eldest young master of the Li family. Li Xuan and Shangguan Xi have one thing in common, that is, they will never forget. That man became famous as a young man, and he was a famous genius boy in the capital. If it is just talented, it will not arouse the admiration of the entire famous ladies in the capital. He also has a face like a god. That face, whether it is an old woman or a girl, no one loves it.

Meng Yuxuan used to be a girl who missed her. has been in contact with such an excellent noble son all day long, and the other party is so gentle to her, and regards her as a confidant in this life, how can she not be tempted?

It's a pity that she has already recognized the facts, having died once. They have never been all the way, and they don't have too deep a relationship. She was stupid once, how could she do something stupid again?

In this life, she just wants to find a lover who can let her husband and children live peacefully. She's dead! I don't want to be exposed to something as hurtful as feelings.

Since she even let go of Li Xuan, who is like an immortal, how can other men who are not as good as Li Xuan get into her eyes? Therefore, Chen Lingfeng's affectionate eyes were eye cramps in her eyes.

"Chen Xianggong is polite." Scholars who do not have any fame are called Xianggong. This is respect for scholars. "Auntie, I still need to serve the family, I went back with Xi'er."

"Good. That walks slowly. "The Yang family only has this precious son in their eyes and hearts now, and it is not good to keep Meng Yuxuan. After all, Meng Yuxuan is young and beautiful, and she always has to avoid suspicion.

On the way back, Shangguan Xi remained silent. Meng Yuxuan called him a few times, but he didn't respond for a while.

Meng Yuxuan pulled Shangguanxi's sleeve and chuckled, "What do you want?" The children's family, such a heavy mind. ”

"I don't like that nerd." Shangguan Xi's jewel-like eyes shone with a sparkling light. He doesn't look like Shangguan Huan, he is carved in pink and jade, and his appearance is very exquisite.

Beautiful children are extremely good-looking no matter what they do. At this time, he pouted, looking unhappy, Meng Yuxuan still felt so cute.

"Your mother must be very good-looking!" Meng Yuxuan blurted out.

Shangguan Xi's expression froze. He hung his head and looked sad.

"Mother, don't face that person in front of your father. Daddy will be upset. Shangguan Xi said.

"Why?" Meng Yuxuan didn't care about this issue before, but now if she wants to stay, she must face up to this problem. Is Shangguanxi's mother dead or gone? If she is gone, will she come back? What is Shangguan Huan's feelings for that woman?

Odd! When I thought of that cold Shangguan Huan had a woman like a cinnabar mole in his heart, why did he feel particularly unhappy? Is it possessive?

"I don't know. I used to ask my dad, and he would be silent every time, and then he would get drunk at night. Shangguan Xi said.

"It really can't be mentioned." Meng Yuxuan muttered.

In the quiet courtyard, a green vegetable patch comes into view. After being watered by the water of the space, all kinds of vegetables grow better than others. Onions and garlic can grow the next day after using them on the same day. Around the garden, wild roses were planted that had been transplanted in the mountains. Now the briar grows along the fence and has many buds, and in a few days you can see beautiful flowers blooming.

Perhaps it was because of the hostess that the original dilapidated house was not only much cleaner, but also more energetic. If you raise a few more chickens and a dog, you will definitely have more vitality.

"Xi'er is tired! Mother's ......" Meng Yuxuan put down the basket and was about to fetch water to wash his hands for Shangguan Xi, but saw him enter Shangguan Huan's room.

She couldn't help but laugh.

Shangguan Xi's energetic voice came from the house: "Dad, that book is growing very beautiful!" He kept smirking at his mother. My mother won't be abducted by him, right? ”

Meng Yuxuan, who was about to tidy up the hawthorn, stumbled under her feet and almost tripped over the stones on the ground. She stared at Shangguan Huan's room, thinking that when that kid came out, she would beat his ass.

"Chen Lingfeng?" Shangguan Huan's voice was as cold as ever. However, he actually responded to Shangguan Xi's words, which Meng Yuxuan did not expect.

She also thought that Shangguan Huan would not care about such a trivial matter. After all, she is just a 'daughter-in-law' who is given away for nothing. They didn't have a wedding, and they didn't have a substantial development.

"Daddy knows about this person? Isn't it pretty? Shangguan Huan's response made Shangguan Xi even more interested in chatting.

Perhaps with Meng Yuxuan's 'mother' as a backer, Shangguan Xi is not as afraid of Shangguan Huan as usual.

"Ugly." Shangguan Huan snorted: "Your talent is not as good as you, your looks are not as good as you, and you can't snatch your mother." ”

"But...... He's better looking than Dad! Shangguan Xi said bluntly. He robbed his father's daughter-in-law, not mine. It's useless if I'm better looking than him! ”

Meng Yuxuan helplessly stroked her forehead. Is this still a child? Or is genius just different from ordinary children?

Never mind! It was rare for the father and son to chat, so she didn't bother. Can't hear can't hear can't hear! Childlike words. She comforted herself so much.

While the father and son were chatting inside, she took the picked hawthorn into the space. With an idea, the hawthorns in the space automatically fell down and piled up into a hill.

She returned outside with the hawthorn in the space. Wash, pit, and then soak into a pot to cook. When she finished doing this, Shangguanxi came out.

Meng Yuxuan glanced at Shangguan Xi. The latter smiled mysteriously. Meng Yuxuan ignored him and continued to be busy with the work in hand.

Shangguan Xi touched his ears, moved to Meng Yuxuan step by step, and smiled sweetly: "Mother, I'll light the fire." ”

"Hmm." Meng Yuxuan responded while busy with the work in hand.

The fire had already been lit, and Shangguanxi only needed to add firewood to it. He said while lighting the fire: "Mother, don't you ask me what I said to my father?" Aren't you curious? ”

"Not curious. I've heard it all, what's there to be curious about? Meng Yuxuan said angrily.

"Mother, are you angry?" Shangguan Xi stuck out his tongue.

Meng Yuxuan smiled and poured some sugar into the hawthorn. Sugar is a precious thing, she doesn't have extra silver to buy too good sugar, she can only buy the most ordinary ones, so she pours a lot into it to have a sweet taste. When it was almost time to boil, she put the contents of the pot into a large basin.

"It smells so good." Shangguan Xi licked his lips and stared at the unformed hawthorn cake in the basin.

"It's better frozen. Now it hasn't taken shape yet. "Meng Yuxuan filled a little and fed it to Shangguan Xi." Is it sweet? ”

"Sweet and sour." Shangguan Xi nodded: "It's mainly sweet." With a little bit of acid. But it's not annoying at all. ”

"I'll give it to you later." Meng Yuxuan said that it was put into the well water and frozen, but in fact, it was put into the well water in the space. She tasted a little bit just now, and it definitely tasted better than those high-end desserts. No one will believe that she only used the simplest method to make these hawthorn cakes, only that she used a lot of mysterious seasonings to make the recipe to have such a taste.

"Okay!" Shangguan Xi pouted in disappointment.

"By the way, Xi'er, Grandma Lin has a little grandson who is about the same age as you at home, you can give him some to taste later." Meng Yuxuan said.

"Okay." Shangguan Xi heard that there were friends of the same age playing, and immediately came to the spirit.

At night, Meng Yuxuan made the ramen she was best at. However, Shangguan Xi was only half-full. The part with an empty stomach is prepared for hawthorn cake.

Meng Yuxuan specially sent a plate to Shangguan Huan, and when she went in to serve the bowl, she found that Shangguan Huan's expression was awkward, and she looked uncomfortable. She was wondering, but she understood when she saw the two empty bowls. This man is really awkward! It's just that she ate up everything she made, do you need to be so embarrassed?
