Chapter 53: It's still hot
In the days after getting married, Chen Xiuyan felt that it was plain and fulfilling, preparing two meals a day, cleaning the house, occasionally going to hunt pigweed, and taking time to learn from Luo Mingxin every day.
The Luo family's fields are all rented out, and they don't need to undertake the work on the fields, at most, they go to pick up their own land occasionally, but these Luo Mingqing are almost all covered by himself, and the work left to Chen Xiuyan and Luo Mingxin is more labor-saving.
Chen Xiuyan had nothing to do, so she started the business of picking medicinal herbs, although there are a lot of traditional Chinese medicinal materials in her space, but not all of them, how can there be too much; Not only that, Chen Xiuyan also replanted a lot of grain and vegetable seeds at home, and some of the seeds that were not there before to the two acres of land in the space.
It was only after ten days that the food and ingredients in the space were harvested, and looking at the gradually plumping space, Chen Xiuyan showed a relieved smile.
In addition, Chen Xiuyan's receipt on the mountain is also not small, and he found wild fruits such as mountain grapes and sugar pears and pears, of course, they are not ripe yet, but Chen Xiuyan transplanted some into the space, and it will not take long to ripen.
As the day enters the fifth month of the lunar calendar, the weather is getting hotter, and Chen Xiuyan has replaced the sheets in the house with mats, and the quilt is also the thinnest.
Luo Mingxin finally ended the half-month ban, and on May 12, he went to apologize to Luo He again when the grounding came out; Chen Xiuyan specially prepared a sumptuous dinner and made Luo Mingxin's favorite sweet and sour fish and steamed short ribs with sauce.
Chen Xiuyan has already added the water at home to the well water in the space, the taste of the food has come up, and everyone's appetite has improved, although Chen Xiuyan has only been married for almost a month, but the children of the Luo family have visibly grown longer, either longer meat, or a little taller, which can be seen from the shorter trouser legs and sleeves.
"Ming'er, I'll go back to Chenjia Village." During the meal, Chen Xiuyan said, "I'll take Mingxin with me, set off with you in the morning, and you come back to Chenjia Village in the evening to go around, and take the two of us by the way." ”
"Okay." Luo Wenqian has no opinion.
In addition to having no further relationship, Chen Xiuyan felt that the way she got along with Luo Wenqian had entered the life of an old husband and wife in advance, and she didn't know if this was how serious couples got along.
On May 13, Chen Xiuyan brought two large jars of rice wine, as well as a handkerchief made by practicing recently to be given to Liu and others, the handkerchief is the simplest gadget, Chen Xiuyan didn't even do embroidery, just practiced edge banding.
Luo Wenqian helped carry the rice wine jar, and when he arrived at the donkey cart, he saw Chen Xiuyan carrying a basket of various rags, so he inevitably took a few more looks.
"Uncle, this is the handkerchief that my little aunt has made recently, and it has made great progress." Luo Mingxin, as the "female red mentor", explained Luo Wenqian's doubts, and also took out a plain pink handkerchief he was carrying to compare it with the basket to show Luo Wenqian Chen Xiuyan's progress.
"The edge stitching is neat and close, this pink is the first one made by the little aunt, and it is still a little immature, and this latest blue, as long as you embroider something in the corner, you can sell it for money."
Luo Wenqian's eyes were not enough to see, but the more he looked at it, the more empty his heart became, and he didn't know why he felt a wave of annoyance, and said sourly, "It's progress, but I'm a little empty at hand, and I don't know if I've missed something." ”
Luo Mingqing shouted directly, "Uncle, what have you forgotten, I'll get it for you." ”
was interrupted by Luo Mingqing like this, and Luo Mingxin didn't hear anything wrong.
Luo Mingchu and Luo Mingnian glanced at each other and saw the same point of view in each other's eyes, but Luo Mingchu didn't speak, Luo Mingnian said directly, "Little aunt, Uncle is asking you for a veil, didn't you make one for Uncle?" ”
In an instant, five lines of sight shot towards Luo Wenqian.
After the sour words, Luo Wenqian also felt that he was a little twisted, and was thinking about replying to Luo Mingqing's words to cover up the matter, but he didn't expect the little nephew to directly expose his old bottom, which caused his face to burn slightly.
"That's what Uncle meant." Luo Mingqing dragged a long "ah" sound.
"Luo Xiucai didn't dislike it, I still thought that I would embroider your name and make you the most perfect one." Chen Xiuyan moved to Luo Wenqian's side, almost leaning on him, her eyes full of teasing.
"This, this, that's it." Luo Wenqian took a step back with red ears and got into the donkey cart directly, his eyes not daring to glance at Chen Xiuyan at all.
"Hahaha-"
Chen Xiuyan went back to the room and took out a small bag, in which there were many handkerchiefs stacked in all directions, with different colors and materials of cotton, "These are made for you." ”
Chen Xiuyan gave the top two to Luo Wenqian, and Luo Mingqing and several people were also two for each person, "There is no embroidery, I match it according to the color of some of the clothes you wear, if you don't dislike it, use it now, and then make it for you when I do better." ”
"Wow, and mine." Luo Mingqing looked at the two soft cotton handkerchiefs in his hand, grinned, and Luo Mingnian also had the same expression.
Luo Mingchu is more restrained, but the slightly upturned corners of his mouth also reveal his good mood.
Luo Wenqian's mood was a little more complicated, sour, astringent and sweet, happy that Chen Xiuyan was kind to Luo Mingqing, but there was a sour feeling in her heart, and she always felt that she didn't seem to be so special to her, which was unsettling.
When Luo Mingchu and Luo Mingnian were sent to the Ning family to study, Chen Xiuyan and Luo Mingxin were sent to Chenjia Village, and when there were only Luo Wenqian and Luo Mingqing on the donkey cart, Luo Wenqian consulted his eldest nephew on the side.
"Ming and Qing Dynasties, what do you say the average girl's family likes?"
Luo Wenqian almost fell off the donkey cart, Luo Mingqing turned around, the reins were instantly tightened, and the donkey was frightened and ran away for a short distance.
"Uncle, what do you do to ask people, what does the girl like? Did you get married and forgot? The handkerchief in your hand is still hot, isn't it? ”
"I just want to learn from it." Luo Wenqian stabilized his body and replied.
Luo Mingqing's face changed, "It turns out that the uncle wants to give it to the little aunt, hehe." ”
Luo Wenqian blushed his neck and glared at Luo Mingqing angrily, "Do you understand the etiquette, the handkerchief in your hand is still hot." ”
"Scholars are cunning, and they laugh at me with what I have said, and they have such a heart." Luo Mingqing slapped the donkey several times in succession, and Luo Wenqian, who was deliberately crazy, was crooked.
The Chen family was very happy with the arrival of Chen Xiuyan and Luo Mingxin, especially when they all received handkerchiefs made by Chen Xiuyan.
"You kid...... I have really grown up a lot, and my hand hurts......" Liu's eyes were full of tears.
