Putting the small pot into the pond, Lu Miao stood by the well and pressed water to wash his hands.

"Come out and take a shower. I'm dying of heat."

Fu Jingyou stopped talking, walked to the well and pushed her aside.

He pressed out a few strokes of icy water and told her to finish washing quickly and go inside.

Mingxia had a bad stomach, so Lu Miao thought of making her something mild and nutritious to eat to relieve her stomachache.

They are all children, there is no reason why she should have a share while the other two have to watch.

Make enough for the kids in the family.

After Fu Jingyou washed the pot, Lu Miao started preparing in the afternoon.

Mash the yam and peel the live shrimps and remove the shrimp threads.

The scallops I bought were cut in half.

Keep some for cooking and serving at night.

A portion of them were picked out by Lu Miao, who removed the shells, shells, and livers, leaving only the scallops.

After everything was cleaned up, I lit the stove and put a small pot on the stove at the kitchen door.

Use a little lard to stir-fry the shrimp heads to extract the shrimp oil, add appropriate amount of water, remove the shrimp heads after boiling, pour in the soaked rice, mushrooms and shredded ginger, cover with a lid and simmer on low heat for thirty to forty minutes.

When the popcorn comes out of the pot, add scallops, shrimps, marinated shredded pork, salt and a few grains of MSG seasoning.

At this point, just cover the lid and continue to simmer on low heat for a few minutes.

Lu Miao couldn't sit still, so he went to the small vegetable garden in the yard to pick fresh leafy vegetables under the hot sun.

She had just washed and chopped the vegetables in the kitchen when someone knocked on the gate.

It was Tang Mei who opened the door and started yelling as soon as she opened it:
"Hey, kid, don't you wear a hat or something when you work? Look how tanned you are."

Lu Miao curiously leaned over to take a look.

The person who came was Liu Wenpei.

After the school was on summer vacation, she and Ling Yuan went back to the suburban farm together.

He must have been working on the farm for a while. His skin, which was not fair to begin with, has become even darker.

"Aunt, I came back to check on our house. It has been uninhabited for a long time. I was afraid someone might take the opportunity to pry open the doors and windows."

When Liu Wenpei came over this time, he was holding a snakeskin bag that looked like a big bag.

Once they entered the yard, they opened the bag and showed Tang Mei what was inside:

"These are melons and edamame grown on the farm. My mother asked me to bring some over for you to try."

"Hey, okay, did you walk here or take a car? You must be hot, come in and have a rest."

"Hey!"

Liu Wenpei responded with a smile and followed Tang Mei into the house without any hesitation.

"I walked here, the city buses haven't come to our area yet!"

"You must have had a hard time carrying such a heavy load all this way."

"Aunt, you're not tired. You always helped with the housework. I'm used to it!"

Liu Wenpei laughed, and from beginning to end he showed the hardworking qualities of the working people.

As he spoke, his eyes met Lu Miao in the kitchen.

She greeted curiously:
"Xiaobao, it's not dinner time yet, what are you doing in the kitchen?"

Lu Miao nodded in response, but before she could say anything, Tang Mei in the room had already answered for her:

"The second child took after her and became a little pampered. Today, his stomach felt uncomfortable! She rushed back from outside and said she would give the child some food that would nourish his stomach."

Liu Wenpei nodded and saw the small stove at the kitchen door at a glance.

She didn't pay attention to the teacup handed to her by Tang Mei. She walked to the kitchen door and directly lifted the lid of the small pot.

When Liu Wenpei saw what was inside, he was surprised:
"Oh my goodness, no wonder it smells so good and is so rich. It has shrimps and mushroom meat, and what's that white thing?" "It's scallops."

Lu Miao explained slowly.

Liu Wenpei held the lid of the pot, and she poured the yam puree and chopped vegetables into the pot, and took a spoon to stir it evenly.

Liu Wenpei said:

"You are so kind!"

Liu Wenpei actually didn’t know what “贝柱” was, but it didn’t matter, it didn’t stop her from being surprised.

A pot of porridge can be filled with so many ingredients. I'm afraid even the prime ministers of the country may not eat it this way.

Lu Miao had no idea what she was thinking. He covered the pot and simmered it for another minute or two. Then he asked Fu Jingyou to bring a rag and take the pot to the big table in the main room.

She invited Liu Wenpei to sit in the main hall and explained:
"Don't be stingy when it comes to children. Some minor problems may seem innocuous, but they actually hide many complications. It's better to spend some time and effort to treat them now than to not lay a good foundation and let the children suffer when they grow up."

“Isn’t this a bit exaggerated?”

Liu Wenpei scratched his head and had a different opinion:
"Didn't we all go through this when we were little? I heard from my aunt that Erbao has a bad stomach. I don't think it's that serious. Maybe he just had an upset stomach?"

The child’s illness is not serious. Even if the doctor diagnoses that it is gastrointestinal problems, it cannot be denied that this possibility exists.

But paying attention is definitely safer than ignoring it.

Liu Wenpei just got married and has no children yet, so she may not be able to empathize with some aspects.

Lu Miao didn't argue with her about this issue.

Maybe when she has her own children in the future, she will have different ideas...

Bringing bowls, chopsticks and spoons, Lu Miao served a bowl to each of the children, and told them to blow on it and eat slowly, and not to rush.

Seeing that she was still insisting on her own way and taking a small matter as if the sky was falling, Liu Wenpei could not help but say something in an ambiguous way:
"No wonder your children are all so good-looking."

"Is she looking good? I think so too. I feel a sense of accomplishment when I feed her."

Lu Miao smiled gently and brightly, not taking Liu Wenpei's words to heart at all.

She focused on watching the children eat and didn't say anything more to Liu Wenpei.

However, she overheard a lot of the conversation between Liu Wenpei and Tang Mei.

Liu Wenpei brought news that the Xie family was going to have a wedding.

A while ago, the heads of the Xie and Gu families met and took the opportunity to finalize the matter between Xie Fei and Gu Ying.

The two children were already grown up, and they were afraid that they would not have enough time after school started, so the two families decided together to arrange the marriage during the summer vacation.

Then, we got married before school started.

Lu Miao felt that it was a bit hasty, but thinking from another perspective, it seemed quite normal in this era.

I was talking a lot when the sun outside changed color.

Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Wenpei stood up and said goodbye:
"Aunt, Xiaobao, I have to go, otherwise it will be dark halfway up the road."

Lu Miao was quick and had already picked up a few apples and bananas and placed them next to Tang Mei.

At this time, if she delayed any further, it would be dangerous and difficult for her to go back alone.

Tang Mei didn't ask her to stay for dinner, and walked her to the door with some fruit in her hand.
"Take this back and eat it... Ling Yuan is really something. He didn't say he would come back with you. Otherwise, wouldn't it be nice if we could have a meal together at home before going back?"

"We will be back soon. There will be plenty of opportunities to eat with us in the future. Just don't think we are annoying, aunt."

Liu Wenpei laughed it off but refused to accept the things.

Tang Mei forcefully pulled her hand over and stuffed a small bag of fruit into her hand:
"Don't refuse, or we can't take the melons and edamame in the house, or anything else you bring here in the future."

Liu Wenpei scratched his head and had to answer:
"Thank you, auntie!"

"You're just being polite. Go ahead and be careful on the road."

"Hey!" (End of this chapter)
