Abandoned Wife Headed Home: Bringing Fubao to Farming

Chapter 64
She bought this basket in Washi, and it is not expensive.

The most expensive are the vegetables and fruits in the basket.

She bought a few cucumbers, two handfuls of beans, a few eggplants, half a catty of peppers, a watermelon weighing seven or eight catties, and two small white-skinned melons.

The baskets were stuffed to the brim, and the watermelons had to be placed separately.

Just these vegetables and fruits cost nearly [-] Wen, which is really sky-high!
It will be fine if you persist for a while, and there will be vegetables in the small vegetable garden in the backyard.

Oh, by the way, Shen Ying'er is still carrying a pair of crucian carp in her hand. The crucian carp's mouth is strung together with wicker. It was still alive and kicking when it was taken out of the water before. Now it is exposed to the sun, rolling its eyes and not breathing. son.

Shen Yinger felt that the purchase of this fish was a bit hasty. In such a summer day, it would take several miles to go back to the village. If Shui Sheng didn't come, the fish might stink!
Originally, he was planning to go back to cook crucian carp soup for Xiao Fubao at noon, but it seemed that the soup was going to be ruined.

Just when Shen Yinger was anxious and worried, a mule cart slowly stopped near her.

Dong Lai jumped down from the carriage and trot towards the mother and son under the old locust tree...

In a blue carriage at the corner of the street, Chu Yunjian had a panoramic view of this scene from the opened window.

His eyes were dark and his expression was unpredictable.

Beside the car, Chang Sui cautiously asked for instructions: "Boss, do you want to go after him?"

Chu Yunjian put down the curtains of the car, and said flatly, "No need!"

The long follower replied "Yes.", turned around and got into the carriage, turned around and went in the opposite direction.

The carriage stopped straight at the gate of the house in the eastern outskirts of the town. When Chu Yunjian got out of the carriage, he commanded his entourage in a deep voice: "Go and find out who the owner of that mule cart is!"

"Yes!"

……

On the mule cart back to Xiahe Village, Shen Yinger looked at the crucian carp placed in the bucket by Donglai, and let out a long sigh of relief.

I was really lucky today, I just happened to meet Donglai to deliver medicine to a certain village below, and I was able to take their mother and son along the way.

As for Shuisheng, Shen Yinger left two copper coins for the old couple selling herbal tea near the old pagoda tree, and asked them to leave a message for Shuisheng later, saying that they would go back first.

"Sister, our boss is really good at predicting things!" Dong Lai turned to chat with Shen Ying'er while driving the mule cart.

"This batch of medicine was originally delivered tomorrow, but our boss told me to deliver it today. Maybe I can catch up with you, eldest sister, by the way.
Our boss felt sorry for Little Fubao's heat, and even prepared an umbrella for him, hey, you can prop up Fubao to cover the sun! "

Shen Yinger saw that there was indeed an umbrella in the corner of the mule cart.

"Your boss has a heart."

She picked up the umbrella and opened it, covering herself and Xiao Fubao under the umbrella, and she felt more fond of Shen Chenxing in her heart.

Donglai sent Shen Yinger and his wife directly to the door of the house, helped to unload the things from the mule cart, and then brought them into the house himself.

Looking at the two low thatched huts where the couple lived, Dong Lai was shocked!

The distress for Xiao Fubao also deepened a little.

"Fu Bao'er, go back to the town next time, and go to play with your brother. My brother will buy you delicious food." Before leaving, he said while stroking Xiao Fubao's head.

Xiao Fubao smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay!"

……

After sending Donglai away, Shen Yinger hurriedly cooked lunch.

Fished out a crucian carp from the water, slaughtered it neatly, and emptied its internal organs.

Put some rapeseed oil in a small pan, fry the fish with a knife in the pan until golden on both sides, and then take it out.

Add ginger foam and salt to the oil at the bottom of the pot, add water, put the fried crucian carp in again, cover the pot and simmer over low heat.

At noon, every household was eating, and Shen Yinger and his wife were also there.

Xiao Fubao was sitting on the pony, and there was a bowl on the small table in front of him. The fish soup in the bowl was like milk, the soup was thick and fragrant.

Xiao Fubao drank heavily, his mouth was full of enjoyment.

Shen Ying'er sat aside, fanning him with a big cattail fan in her hand, even so, the little guy was still sweating profusely from drinking.

Da Lan came over at this time, she knew that Shen Ying'er had gone to town today, so she asked Shen Ying'er to help bring two taels of salt and half a catty of saponin powder.

"Yeah, what are you eating?"

As soon as Dalan entered the room, she smelled a scent and found that it was Xiao Fubao who was drinking fish soup.

"Fu Bao'er, is the fish soup good?" She teased little Fu Bao.

Xiao Fubao nodded happily: "It's so delicious!"

He patted his bulging stomach and said, "I can drink two big bowls!"

Da Lan stroked his belly lightly, and said happily, "What a little toad belly."

After teasing Xiao Fubao, Da Lan felt a little uncomfortable.

Even Yinger, a widow, can find different ways to drink fish soup for her children and make them fat and fat.

But myself and Laiwang don't care about so much, every day the adults eat whatever the children eat, and when it's meal time, Goudan sees the dishes on the table and cries in distaste...

Shen Ying'er brought Dalan's things to her, and was about to pour water for Dalan, but was stopped by Dalan.

"I don't drink, I have to go back after taking something, the pot is still full of food!"

Even so, Shen Yinger did not force her, "Sister-in-law, wait a minute."

She took out a white-skinned melon from the basket and stuffed it into Da Lan's hand: "Take it back for Qiaomei and Goudan to eat."

Da Lan weighed the heavy melon in his hand, feeling overwhelmed by flattery: "Melons and fruits are very expensive now, how can I want you? You should save it for Xiao Fubao to eat!"

Shen Ying'er said: "There are Fubao's, I brought this melon for you and sister-in-law Ximei, so don't be polite to me."

That being the case, Da Lan happily accepted the melon.

At this time of summer in previous years, the white-skinned melons in my cotton ditch are also ripe, and children like to eat this most.

Isn't it flooded this year? There's nothing left.

Thanks to the blessings of the four younger siblings, the children will be blessed again later.

"By the way, fourth brother and sister, if you are not in the village today, something happened in our village again!"

Before Dalan left, she told Shen Yinger mysteriously.

Shen Yinger raised her eyebrows: "What's the matter?"

Da Lan snarled towards the old Xiao's house in front, and said, "Mrs. Xiao's third daughter-in-law, Ma Guizhi, has a stomach ache so badly that she's been upset for quite a while, and even Lizheng Wang Shanbao was alarmed... this meeting Just calm down a little bit."

It turned out that it was about the old Xiao's family, Shen Ying'er was not interested at all.

She smiled faintly at Da Lan: "Sister-in-law, if you have nothing else to do, go home quickly, the children will be waiting in a hurry."

Da Lan patted her thigh: "Oh, look at my memory, rice is cooking in the pot, I'm leaving first!"

After sending Da Lan away, Shen Ying'er brought over a small bowl of rice, put a few pieces of cucumber and eggplant on top of the rice, and put it in front of Xiao Fubao.

Xiao Fubao pointed to the empty bowl and said to Shen Yinger: "Mom, I drank all the fish soup, is it good?"

Shen Yinger smiled and said, "That's great!"

"Come on, let my baby eat a few more bites of rice and vegetables, it will be even better!"
