Don't panic when fleeing famine, the farm system is busy raising cubs to get rich

Chapter 138 Nougat

"Did you hear it wrong? I was talking about the taste that children love! By the way, shouldn't you send firewood today? Why haven't you delivered it yet?" Xia Qiyue hurriedly changed the topic.

"It should be soon, right? It was delivered before dark last time!" Xia Jiuyue was really fooled.

"Okay, then wait, come and taste it, this is my new researched sugar, nougat!"

Xia Jiuyue just thought that what kind of pastry was that white, fragrant milk girl, it turned out to be the new candy made by her sister, so she picked it up and put it in her mouth curiously.

The next moment, Xia Jiuyue was about to jump up. The excitement that came from her heart after eating something so delicious was exaggerated and real.

"Sister, this... this is so delicious, sweeter and more fragrant than crispy candy! It also tastes like milk, it's so delicious!" Chewing the nougat in his mouth vigorously, dancing with hands and feet, "and the more you chew The more fragrant the kind!"

"You're too exaggerated, pay attention to your image!" Xia Qiyue patted her sister's shoulder amusedly.

Only at this time did she show her childish side, no matter what, she is only a 15-year-old child, and she will still be a child in future generations.

"What's the matter with you?" Xia Xinghe ran in when he heard the movement, his face was full of anxiety.

"Come, come! Try the new candy made by big sister, it's even more delicious than crispy candy!" Xia Jiuyue hurriedly beckoned her brother to come in.

When Xia Xinghe heard that it was sugar, he had no resistance at all, so he quickly put the nougat in the second sister's hand into his mouth, and then... his performance was even more exaggerated than Xia Jiuyue's, which made Xia Qiyue full of confidence.

"Okay, stop playing tricks, you two, hurry up and give it to others to taste! I'll make some more!"

Xia Qiyue asked Xia Xinghe to take away a small plate of nougat, but when he saw the discarded ones on the side, he didn't let them go. It was all candy. Anyway, if they didn't want it, they would give it to them to eat. If not, I can take it home.

Xia Qiyue didn't care, so she went with her younger brother and let him take it away. Compared with when she was with her, her younger brother and sister are much more confident and not as inferior as before.

"Sister, shall I help you?" Seeing that she had nothing to do, Xia Jiuyue proposed to help her.

"No need, just boil some hot water. Today I have to bathe the three children. Although it's cold, I can't help but bathe the children!"

Xia Qiyue herself had to take a bath every day, and she was used to it, but she couldn't take a bath every day when she came here, and she couldn't take a bath once a month when she was fleeing famine, which made her very uncomfortable.

"Okay, then I'll boil the water!" Xia Jiuyue had something to do, so she hurried out to get firewood, and Xia Qiyue calmed down to make nougat again.

In Xia Xinghe's room, Liangzi secretly hid a few candies in his pocket again. An Zihao saw that he wanted to remind his cousin a few words, but just as he opened his mouth to say something, An Zihao Pulled a hand.

"Stop talking!" An Youde whispered into An Zihao's ear, "Leave him alone, he won't take anything he shouldn't!"

An Zihao had no choice but to let it go. He wasn't worried that Liangzi would steal something, but he was afraid that if he took the candy back, the uncle's house would become noisy again. When his mother found out, she might make a fuss and trouble the fourth sister-in-law again, so he couldn't go back. Go, no one stopped, a few sisters-in-law urged...

But he was too embarrassed to tell Youde about this, so he could only worry in his heart.

"This candy is so delicious, Xinghe, did the fourth sister-in-law ask you to share so much with us? Could it be more expensive than crispy candy? I'm afraid I can't afford it!" An Sijin tasted I ordered a nougat, and was deeply fascinated by its taste.

"Elder Sister didn't say that we will eat all of these, but you can eat whatever you want, I brought them for you!" Xia Xinghe said with a naive smile.

"Really? Then I'll give some to my sister!" Dongzi laughed, grabbing three or four.

An Sijin's eyes flickered, forget it, he'd better eat by himself, he was afraid that several sister-in-laws would make a fuss.

Nephews and nieces would not starve to death without this candy, and he was embarrassed to take one for each person, so he could just eat two more for himself.

I am happy to eat sweets here, Xia Qiyue has already started to make the second set, if it is successful, people who come to buy crispy sweets the day after tomorrow will take them back to taste one by one, and advertise it.

Xia Jiuyue's job was to cook and take care of the children, so she couldn't stop being busy all day.

The two of them worked till late, until it was almost dark. Xia Jiuyue also made dinner, but after lunch, everyone ate less in the evening. An Zihao even said that he was not hungry and refused to eat. It was Xia Qi Yue said that he would recover faster by eating more, so he picked up chopsticks to eat.

The person who sent the firewood really came here when it was getting dark. Twenty bundles of firewood at a time, the family needs a lot, even if they don’t make a lot of sugar, they still need firewood. Xia Jiuyue left her sister with the money she had on her body After paying off the firewood, it happened that the five people who came home at night had finished their meals and left. He closed the courtyard door before returning to the kitchen.

Xia Qiyue made five catties of nougat, and Xia Jiuyue helped her sister pack it. The two of them took out the unused satin and packed them one by one. Then they went back to the house to bathe the three children. .

After everything was done, Xia Qiyue lay down on the kang, one on each side, and Ling'er and Ke'er hugged her.

She suddenly felt that a three-year-old child was still too young to leave his mother's arms so early, and knocked on Xia Xinghe's door as soon as he got up.

"What's the matter, big sister? What's the matter?" Xia Xinghe, wearing thick clothes, opened the door a little bit, with sleepy eyes.

"Hold my son out, I want to take him back to sleep in his arms!" Xia Qiyue said directly.

Xia Xinghe was taken aback, why did he still want to take the child away?Isn't it good?
"Sister, Xuan'er has already gone to bed, and fell asleep after washing her body, isn't it cold to take the child out?"

Moreover, a child of such a big family has already slept by himself, and Xuan'er is still sleeping with him, which shouldn't be.

Xia Xinghe was usually busy, but he would still go out for a stroll after dinner, so he heard more things.

Xia Qiyue felt that she was impulsive. In this cold day, the child fell asleep and couldn't be carried out. Just as she was about to nod to go back, she saw Xiao Xuan'er dragging her quilt to the door with difficulty.

Behind him was An Zihao's voice reminding him not to fall.

The little man hugged a pillow and wrapped himself in a quilt as he dragged himself towards the door, shocking Xia Xinghe enough, so he hurried forward to help him carry it.

"Xuan'er, why are you awake? Didn't you already fall asleep?" He asked the little one while helping, because he watched Xuan'er sleep.

"Xuan'er wants to sleep with mother!" The little child stubbornly walked forward step by step, with an unconcealable happiness on his face.

Xia Qiyue felt that she had come to the right place again. She had ignored the child's feelings before, thinking that girls should be more hypocritical than boys, but she didn't know that Xuan'er was only a three-year-old child. Looking for a mother is not hypocritical, but needs her mother to personally sense of security.

Moreover, they had just experienced fleeing famine, and there were wolves and danger along the way. At this time, she shouldn't be in a hurry to let Xuan'er be independent.
