Chapter 3 Cooking for the first time, cooking for my wife and children

There is no pollution in this mountain village, and the river water is crystal clear.

There are a lot of fish in the river, and they are not very big, Ye Fei moves quickly and accurately, and drills into the crack of the stone, almost touching one by one.

After a while, the pockets in front of him could not fit in them, and he picked out some large ones and put them into the small pit by the river to feed them.

Seeing that the sun was about to shine in the sky, Ye Fei stopped at this time, and if he didn't go back, An An would be hungry and crying.

Standing at the head of the village, he looked at the distance and saw that every household was planting rice.

It was obviously noon, but the cooking smoke rarely rose in the village, Ye Fei remembered that everyone took advantage of the sun to work quickly during the busy farming season, so lunch was also late.

Ye Fei hurriedly ran ashore to put on his shoes, took off his clothes and tied a knot, made a simple bag, directly packed all the fish in the pit, and ran in the direction of home.

Since the separation, Ye Fei has only gotten a clay room with a grass shed, and the room will leak when it rains.

And the light is very bad, and the cooking is in the grass shed on the side.

When Ye Fei returned home, An An was sitting alone in the courtyard holding a branch and drawing on the ground.

Seeing Ye Fei enter the house, the milk ball squatting on the ground immediately threw away the branch in his hand and ran in front of Ye Fei to ask for a hug.

While running, he shouted milkily in his mouth.

"Mama, Baba is back!"

Ye Fei usually plays outside at this time, or sleeps at home.

This was the first time she saw him come back from outside, and An An felt extremely curious.

In the house, Jiang Yu was sitting on the bed counting the few bits and pieces in the house.

It's all one and two points, and it's all earned by Ye Fei not being at home, and Jiang Yu helping other people's families work.

There is no food left at home, and even if you take out all your belongings, you can't buy much coarse grain.

Ye Fei doesn't work, and the family still has a mouth for nothing, and the food is not enough to eat at all.

What's more, the crops in the field are not yet ripe, Jiang Yu's face is full of helplessness, when will this green and yellow day be the end.

It is said that each family has been allocated land, and it is not bad to be self-sufficient.

But the person in his own house is a lazy thing, and the burden is all on Jiang Yu's body.

Jiang Yu sat on the bed with a sad face, thinking that she not only had to take care of the children, but also had to farm to feed the whole family, and this burden was too heavy for her as a woman.

But if she didn't work, the mother and daughter would starve to death, and when she thought of An An at such a young age, she hadn't even eaten a full meal, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her resentment towards Ye Fei in her heart was even worse.

If it weren't for An An's face, she really wouldn't be able to stay in this Ye family.

Just as she was thinking about whether to go to the neighbor's house to borrow some cornmeal, there was a sound of footsteps outside the house, and she hurriedly hid the few tickets in front of her.

"Mama!"

It was An An's voice.

Jiang Yu hurriedly raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face, turned his head and smiled and hugged the little group that came over.

"An An, what's wrong, are you hungry! Mom is going to find you something to eat, okay? ”

Jiang Yu touched Tuanzi's little head lovingly, looking at her yellow and withered hair due to malnutrition, a wave of sadness welled up in his heart.

I was going to take my children out to see if there were any sweet potatoes left over from the morning in the stove.

An An pulled her hand outside, smiling with a sunny face, her little hand was still pointing outside, and she said vaguely.

"Baba is back, there is something to eat!"

Hearing An An's words, Jiang Yu didn't take it to heart, how could this Ye Fei be able to afford their mother and daughter when he got delicious food, and he didn't go to his fox friends and dog friends.

But he didn't think about it, and as soon as he went out, he happened to bump into Ye Fei holding a broken wooden basin filled with water.

Seeing Jiang Yu coming out with the child in his arms, Ye Fei said with a smile.

"You take An An to play first, and I'll cook for you."

With that, he turned around and went into the kitchen.

Jiang Yu stood in place and was stunned.

A pair of eyes widened at the boss, looking at the busy Ye Fei in disbelief.

It wasn't until Ye Fei lit the fire and washed the pot that Jiang Yu reacted, what Ye Fei just said was to cook.

This lazy person of the Ye family can actually cook?

But there is nothing to do, there is nothing to eat at home.

Jiang Yu stood in place and didn't move, An An in his arms stretched out his little hand, gently pulled Jiang Yu, pointed to the ground on the side, and said in a milky voice.

"Ma Ma look, there are fish to eat! Baba said that the fish is delicious! ”

An An looked at the small basin on the side, with a little greedy cat on his face.

Jiang Yu looked in the direction of her finger, there was a wooden basin next to the earthen wall, which was actually full of some cleaned fish, which looked like a small half basin.

Looking at the half pot of fish, Jiang Yu's head suddenly went a little blank.

Her first reaction was that Ye Fei was going to call his fox friends and dog friends to come to the house for dinner!

When she thought of those people, she felt irritable, put down An An in her arms, and let her go to the side to play by herself.

Then she walked to the thatched hut by herself, her brows furrowed, looking at Ye Fei's back, her tone was not very good.

"Ye Fei, where did you come from?"

Here, Ye Fei had just made the fire in the stove, thinking that he had never done this work before, but he didn't expect that after so many years, he could still make a fire, and he was a little proud in his heart.

Jiang Yu's words sounded behind him, and Ye Fei looked back with a smile on his face and tenderness in his eyes.

"This fish! I told you that I didn't bring tools, and if I brought tools, it must be more than that! ”

Ye Fei said a little complacent.

Jiang Yu had no expression on her face, she knew that Ye Fei would catch fish.

But every time he catches a fish, there will be their mother and daughter's share, not to eat with those fox friends and dog friends, and even after drinking, he will beat people if he doesn't like it at all.

So this time, Jiang Yu also felt that this fish was not caught for them.

"You're going to call your friends over for dinner?"

Although he had the answer in his heart, Jiang Yu was still looking forward to it.

Even if she doesn't eat, she has to leave a little for An An, the child is still young after all.

Unexpectedly, Ye Fei waved his hand directly after hearing this.

"Why call them here, we don't have enough ourselves!"

"You see that you and An An are so thin, you should eat more."

When Ye Fei said this, he didn't look back, and was adding firewood to the stove.

Jiang Yu stood behind him, did not speak, bit his lip slightly, his brows furrowed and puzzled.

It was the first time her heart had wavered.

Could it be that the day has changed today?

Ye Fei actually cared about whether their mother and daughter were full or not.

At this time, the pot was already hot, and Ye Fei opened all the jars on the side to take a look, and only then did he find the oil tank at home.

He didn't think about it, he directly scooped a spoonful and poured it into the pot, and when Jiang Yu behind him saw it, his eyes widened, and he stepped forward with an exclamation in his mouth, and snatched it up.

His eyes glared at him fiercely, and he looked at the oil tank in his hand as if he was distressed, and the already small can suddenly became lighter.

"What are you doing! Can't you put a little less? There is only a little oil at home, and it was brought to An An by my father last time. ”

"This spoonful of yours is enough for us to eat for several days!"

Seeing Jiang Yu's appearance, Ye Fei was stunned, and then he reacted.

That's right, now he is still the poor boy who can't even afford rice, and he doesn't dare to use this oil at home.

Jiang Yu hugged the oil tank tightly and looked at Ye Fei with a vigilant expression, for fear that he would snatch it again.
