Chapter 127, Water Chestnut (Ask for Subscription)
"It's okay, take it with peace of mind, I'll pay it back. Mei Xue comforted.
That night, Grandma He didn't fall asleep until the radio went silent.
The next day, Grandma He got up late.
After last night's gift-giving, Anwen's family and Mei Xue's side have become closer.
Everyone saw these changes, and soon everyone knew that An Wen was filial to the third grandmother and a radio, and they were all very envious.
No, just after noon, Anwen ran over again, "Sister-in-law, where is my third grandmother?"
"Grandma was taking a nap and didn't sleep well last night. Mei Xue glanced at An Wen with a little resentment, with a hint of blame in her eyes.
An Wen understood his sister-in-law's eyes and touched his nose, "The third grandmother won't listen to the radio all night, right?"
"What do you say?"
Yes, what else can An Wen say, but thinking of the fact that he came to find his sister-in-law, he immediately crossed the topic: "Sister-in-law, let's go pick water chestnuts." ”
"What is a water chestnut?" Mei Xue was stunned.
"It's delicious, if you don't go to my sister-in-law, if it's late, it will be picked up by the villagers. "It was a waste field that grew up, and I used to hear that someone had planted it, but the man left the village and never came back, so the field was empty.
But the water chestnut inside is very gratifying, and every season of time, many people in the village will pick some and come back to eat.
"Okay, you wait for me. "Of course Mei Xue is going.
She has no resistance to what she eats.
I took a look at my grandmother when I entered the house, and saw that she was sleeping soundly, Mei Xue didn't wake her up, but she locked the doors here and locked the door of the outer yard, the key was only for her and her grandmother, and she was not afraid that her grandmother would not be able to get out.
As Anwen said, there are really a lot of people here, and many people greeted her with a smile when they saw Mei Xue coming.
Mei Xue knows some and doesn't, but she has to scream.
After finding a place with few people, Mei Xue directly pulled up her pants and went to the field.
If it was put in the past, water chestnuts could be eaten as a meal, but now, they are all eaten as snacks.
People don't pick up too much.
Mei Xue saw it for the first time, so she picked up a big bucket, but it was not the kind of bucket that holds fish, but a small bucket that she used at home on weekdays.
After loading, she went up to the field stalk and waited for Anwen.
Anwen didn't pick up much before he came up, "Sister-in-law, you picked up so much." Looking at the big and black water chestnut in his sister-in-law's bucket, An Wen really felt that his sister-in-law could do anything.
"Well, let's go, go back. After Mei Xue got off the field, she broke one to eat, and it was raw and sweet, but she was seen by an aunt next to her, and said to Mei Xue with a smile, telling her that it was going to be cooked.
Only then did Mei Xue's idea of eating it raw.
"Good. ”
This time it was a lot of gains.
The small life was so quiet, Mei Xue got along well with her grandmother and the people in the village.
Even Aunt Yong will now smile and call her Xiaoxue when she meets Mei Xue.
Unlike before, she was always said to be degraded.
However, Mei Xue is a stingy person, and she still thinks about the sins suffered by the original owner in her heart, and she can't see the overtures to Aunt Yong.
But an accident made her have an intersection with He Anwei's group of boys.
"Quick, there's still one here. "It turned out that the children in the village were looking for food in the mountains in the golden autumn and October.
One by one, like a wolf in flight.
No, there is a pear grove on the other side of the mountain behind Mei Xue's house, not to mention how many fruits have been borne over there, but for children, it is also an appetizing fruit.
Mei Xue also heard what her grandmother said, and planned to come over to have a look, but she didn't expect it, and ran into a group of little children in the village.
This mountain is not her home, and Mei Xue doesn't plan to go forward when she sees people, but plans to go to the pear tree on the other side to pick some pears and go back to eat.
This thing is definitely not as delicious as the one raised by her spiritual spring water, but it is better than nothing.
Just as she was leaving, Mei Xue saw a snake crawling down from the pear tree, the color of the snake was very similar to the color of the pear tree, and if she didn't pay attention, she might not be able to find it.
Looking at the appearance of the snake, Mei Xue knew in her heart that it was a poisonous snake.
She wanted to leave, but thinking of the price of the snake, Mei Xue still held back her steps and slowly walked towards the group of children.
And He Anwei is the leader of this group of children, he was about to climb this big tree, but unfortunately, he didn't find the snake.
When Mei Xue saw the snake raise its head, she immediately stepped forward and grabbed He Anwei with one hand and pulled him down from the tree.
When the people around saw it, they immediately roared.
Before they finished roaring, Mei Xue grabbed a snake in her hand and shook it, not light, at least three or four catties.
"What a noise. Mei Xue looked back domineeringly and glared at the little kid behind her.
He Anwei, of course, saw the snake in Mei Xue's hand, and they all took a few steps back in fright.
The snake's head is pointy, you don't need to think about it to know that it is poisonous, if you are bitten.
He Anwei broke out in a cold sweat.
"Sister-in-law Anze, thank you. "He's not a bad guy.
Mei Xue glanced at He Anwei, and she didn't expect him to thank herself.
"The serpent is mine. Mei Xue nodded in response.
"Of course. A group of people hurriedly nodded, they didn't dare to ask for the snake.
After seeing them meet, Mei Xue had a smile on her face, "What are you doing here?"
"We're picking iron pears here, they're so sweet. When a group of half-grown children saw Mei Xue's smile, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is this called an iron pear?"
He Anwei also came back to his senses at this time, put on his shoes and stepped forward, "Sister-in-law, this pear has thick skin and hard skin, so everyone calls it an iron pear, but this pear is sweet, sister-in-law, do you want to eat it? I have it here, and I will give it to you." ”
Mei Xue was originally here to pick pears, but now that she caught a snake in her hand, she couldn't pick it, and when she saw He Anze handing the pears to herself, of course she was not polite.
"Oh, good. "I took it very easily.
"Then you pick it slowly, I'll go back first. After saying that, Mei Xue turned around and left here.
This snake is worth more than a pear in Mei Xue's eyes.
It wasn't until the people walked away that He Anwei and the others really breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh my God, my sister-in-law is too scary, right?"
"Even if I didn't dare to move in front of her. ”
"No, you have to know that my sister-in-law kicked Viagra Ann away. ”
One by one, they all gave their performance testimonials.
He Anwei's face slowly became ugly, "What nonsense, hurry up and pick pears." ”
When Mei Xue returned home, she put the snake in the utility room, and this was the first snake she caught after selling all the snakes last time.
I didn't expect there to be so many snakes in the mountains, it's good.
In a blink of an eye, Zhou Wei came again, and as soon as An Liang and the others came back, Mei Xue felt like she was lively again.
