Chapter 67 Mung Bean Soup in the Heat (Part [-])
After harvesting rice and transplanting rice seedlings, the peanuts and sweet potatoes at home began to harvest again.

Xiao Siquan knows that the busy farming season is very busy, but when he really experienced it, he realized that the busy farming season is so busy.

Harvesting peanuts and digging sweet potatoes are not very heavy tasks, but they are very tiring, especially now when all work is done manually.

Of course, Xiao Wanshan and his son were reluctant to let their wives and daughters (mother and sister) be troubled, so they started busy collecting peanuts and sweet potatoes.

Harvesting peanuts is just pulling the peanuts out of the ground, with seedlings on the top and peanuts under the roots.

When harvesting peanuts, some people are rushing to grow rice, so they will pull out the peanuts and go home to pick them.

After picking it home, the peanuts are not in a hurry to pick them off.

Pick them if you have time, and put them away if you don’t have time. Anyway, it won’t be damaged after a while, so first of all, I’m busy inserting the seedlings.

Xiao's family only grows rice with five acres per mu. In contrast, there is no need to worry about harvesting peanuts.

Except for Xiao's mother doing laundry and cooking at home, the four of them were pulling peanuts in the field.

After the peanuts are pulled out one by one, they are neatly put aside, and when they are about the same, they are bundled into a large bundle and transported home directly on a tricycle.

However, the field path is too narrow for a tricycle to ride in. This is the time for the bull king to play its role.

The bundled peanuts were put on the back of Niu Wang one by one, and then Niu Wang transported them to a place where the tricycle was parked on a relatively wide ground, and then put the peanuts on the tricycle.

There weren't many peanuts in the five-fen field, so Niu Wangyun carried some. Papa Xiao and Xiao Junxuan picked up a load or two, and it was almost enough.

Xiao Jinli patted Niu Wang on the head, and said with a smile, "Niu Wang, you have worked hard. I will reward you later."

When the bull king heard the reward, the bull's eyes immediately widened and shone brightly. It was obvious that the reward had won his heart.

In view of Xiao Siquan's delicate skin and tender flesh, Xiao Wanshan didn't let him pick peanuts. This was heavy work after all, so he didn't let Xiao Jinli pick peanuts.

I'm afraid that Xiao Jinli's waist will be crushed, what should I do if I don't grow taller in the future?
Xiaobao has only a handful of strength, but her strength is all in her arms, how can her small waist bear this heavy weight.

Not long after Xiao Wanshan and the others left, some old people in the village came to pick up peanuts in the field with small baskets.

Even digging up the soil with a hoe to pull out the peanuts buried deep in the ground.

This phenomenon is normal.

Just like when the rice in someone's field is harvested, some people will go to pick up the ears of rice and go home to thresh millet.

No one will tell, and no one will blame.

……

After the bull king returned to his cowshed, he waited for the owner to reward him.

Sure enough, after a while, the little master came to it.

Xiao Jinli touched its small head and said with a smile, "Well, the bull king has worked hard. Now, this is a reward for you!"

After all, the spiritual spring water flowed out from the fingertips, dripping directly into Niu Wang's mouth.

After drinking the spiritual spring water given by Xiao Jinli, he happily rubbed his head against Xiao Jinli's palm, expressing his satisfaction.

Xiao Jinli stroked its hair and said with a smile, "Okay, it's so itchy, you can rest by yourself. I'm going home!"

The Bull King was very reluctant to let Xiao Jinli leave, but he was very satisfied to drink the pure spiritual spring water. He is in a very good state of mind now, and maybe he can hook up with a few cows!
However, their cattle are still locked in the cattle pen, and they can't hook up. Alas, forget it, let's take a rest.

Afterwards, the Bull King lay on the clean and dry floor, and suddenly entered a dormant state.

After the family had lunch, they started picking peanuts under the shade of the tree.

Because it is not cool enough, the fan at home also blows outside.

However, the weather is sweltering and dry, and even with a fan blowing under the trees, I am still a little irritable inside.

Mother Xiao said, "Let me cook some mung bean soup."

"Well, let's go!" Dad Xiao nodded and said, "In this weather, drink some mung bean soup to relieve the heat and feel comfortable!"

Xiao Junxuan looked at the tender peanuts that were picked out, and said, "Mom, cook some tender peanuts, I want spicy flavor."

Xiao's father glanced at him immediately, and said, "You have hands and feet, so you can't go by yourself, and even command your mother!"

Xiao Junxuan, "..." He was sure once again that he picked it up.

Xiao Junxuan said with a chuckle, "Dad, Mom's cooking is more delicious, isn't it, sister!"

Xiao Jinli nodded and said, "Well, the peanuts cooked by my mother are more fragrant." It's not that she is partial to her brother, it's true that her mother's cooking is more delicious.

Xiao's mother smiled and said, "Okay, the children like to eat it, what if I make something. Koizumi, this boiled peanut, what flavor do you want?"

Every time Xiao's mother would ask Xiao Siquan's taste.

Xiao Siquan said, "I'm just like Brother Xuan."

In the past, his taste was bland, but since he came to Xiao's house, his taste has become stronger, and it would be a bit unpalatable to eat bland food.

Xiao's mother scooped up the mung beans first, washed the mung beans, drained the water, and fried them in a casserole for a while. The mung beans fried in this way will be more likely to be soft and rotten when they are boiled. Otherwise, the mung beans that have not been soaked must be boiled. Bad time takes a long time.

The boiled mung beans use that kind of pressure cooker.

When cooking mung beans, Xiao's mother picked up the tender raw flowers on the dustpan and washed them in the sink.

After washing, put it directly in the aluminum pot to cook, add salt, cooking oil and five spices.

After Xiao's mother got these back, she came back to pick fresh flowers.

After a while, I heard the "beep" sound of the pressure cooker.

After a while, the smell of mung beans wafted out of the kitchen.

Xiao Siquan sniffed, "It smells so good."

Xiao's mother smiled and said, "I have to press for a while."

After steaming for another 15 minutes, Mother Xiao went to the kitchen to turn off the gas in the pressure cooker.

She checked the peanuts in the aluminum pot again, and tried to eat them, but they were not yet ripe and tasty, and had to be cooked for a while.

After a while, Mother Xiao came out of the kitchen and asked with a smile, "Mung bean soup is ready, do you want it hot or cold?"

Xiao Junxuan said, "In such a hot day, it must be more comfortable to eat cold."

Others also said to drink cold mung beans.

Xiao's mother poured the mung beans out of the pressure cooker, put them in cold water, let them cool down, and put the mung beans in the freezer of the refrigerator when they were cold.

In the freezer, it doesn't take long, at most 20 minutes, the mung beans will be cold to the bottom of my heart.

After taking out the mung bean soup from the freezer, Xiao's mother filled a bowl for everyone, put it on the dining table, and shouted loudly, "Everyone go home and eat a bowl of mung bean soup, it's cold and comfortable to drink!"

Without further ado, Xiao Junxuan put down what he was doing, washed his hands, and immediately ran into the house, picked up the bowl, drank mung beans, and sighed, "Drinking this mung bean soup is really comfortable. !"

Others feel the same way.

In such weather, drinking a bowl of cool mung beans is really comfortable!
