Chapter 94 The Uncle Comes Again 5
The courtyard door of the aunt's house next door was not closed, so Lu Ziwan knocked on the door, seeing her aunt coming out, she led Lu Banxia and Sister He in.

"They all belong to neighbors, just come in and knock on the door, you are so polite." Tie Danniang smiled and brought the three of them into the house.

"Auntie, there's nothing wrong with politeness. As an outsider, you have to knock on the door first before you come in." Lu Ziwan smiled, this is her habit, "Auntie, my mother said that you have mung beans at home, let me Let me ask if your family has any leftovers? I want to buy some and cook some soup for the workers who built the house. It’s a hot day, and mung bean soup can relieve the heat, so drink it to avoid sunburn.”

"That's it, yes, our family is not short of mung beans, as many as you want, I'll get them for you." Tie Danniang smiled and agreed immediately.

"My mother means to buy more. It will take more than a month to build this house. I don't know if 34 catties is enough." Lu Ziwan said.

"It's about thirty or forty catties. I'll get it for you right now." Tie Danniang made some calculations, then turned and went to the cellar. After a while, she came out with a big basket of mung beans in a big bamboo basket. "These are all newly harvested this year, and the soup is absolutely delicious."

"Thank you, auntie, let's figure out how much it is." Lu Ziwan said as she took out a few hundred coins in change.

"Hey! Sister Wan, a few mung beans are not something valuable, how can I collect money from your family!" Tie Danniang shook her head again and again, "The neighbors are not valuable things, don't mention money, besides, your family To build a house, money is used everywhere, and this money should be reserved for what needs to be spent.”

"Auntie, your family has worked so hard to grow this. It's okay if we take a little, but if we don't give you the thirty or forty catties, our family is too embarrassed to take it. Auntie, you should follow the market price. Take it at the price." Lu Ziwan returned the basket while talking, as if she would not accept the mung beans if her aunt didn't take the money.

Unable to resist Lu Ziwan, Tie Danniang finally accepted ten cents to make a point. Although Lu Ziwan didn't know the price of mung beans in the market, she also knew in her heart that it was impossible for 34 catties of mung beans to be worth ten cents. I knew in my heart that the aunt next door took ten Wen at will and was embarrassed to ask for more.

A basket of mung beans thirty to forty catties is really heavy. Lu Ziwan admitted that her hands are weak, but fortunately, Sister He and Lu Banxia followed her to carry the mung beans. She finally took the mung beans to her next door. go home.

There was a temporary pot set up under the tree. After Lu Ziwan took the mung beans over, He Chunmei and Ge Rui lit a fire and started cooking mung bean soup.

The fire was very loud, and the mung bean soup was cooked in a short time. Sugar is a luxury for rural people at this time, so there is no sugar in the mung bean soup. After the soup is cold, Lu Ziwan ordered Lu Banxia to call everyone Come and drink some mung bean soup to relieve the heat.

The eight big men put down their work and walked over embarrassedly. One of the older uncles scratched the back of his head and said, "Dongming daughter-in-law, why are you so embarrassed to ask you to buy this mung bean soup for us to drink?"

"It's not a good thing, it's all worthless things. I don't know how grateful you are for helping our house build in this hot weather." He Chunmei smiled and shared bowls of mung bean soup with him. , Said, "You just drink it, drink it when you are thirsty, the child's father used to talk to me when he was still there, mung beans are something to relieve the heat, it is good to drink, and the child and her second aunt are always here for you. "
