The Abandoned Woman of Space

Chapter 8 Hibiscus Sweet Potato Soup

The hibiscus sweet potato soup in Yunmo's bowl has also bottomed out. She doesn't eat much, and one bowl is enough.

"Tongtong, take a good rest for a while, mother will go to the kitchen to wash the dishes."

She was in a coma for a day, and Xiao Douding was worried for a day, and when cooking, she helped chop wood and light the fire, so she must be exhausted.

Yun Xiaotong covered her mouth and yawned, her face was tired, she was really tired, "Mother, go wash the dishes, I will stay here."

Yunmo rubbed his hair distressedly, took the empty bowl, and prepared to wash it in the kitchen.

She just stood up and was about to leave the house when she heard someone shouting from the yard.

"Tongtong, Sister Mozi."

"Tongtong, is your mother awake? Poor child." Two voices came into the hut one after the other.

Yun Xiaotong opened his ears, listened carefully, and said happily: "Mother, it's Grandma He and Aunt Qiuyue next door."

"Yeah." Yun Mo nodded, she also heard it.

It was the mother and daughter of the Qiu family next door who called her.

"Aunt He, Sister Qiuyue, you are here." Yun Mo put the empty bowl back on the table, and while answering, greeted the door.

Congratulations to Jiuniang, Qiuyue was overjoyed when she heard Yunmo's voice, and the mother and daughter quickened their pace.

"Girl Yunmo, luckily you're fine, Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless you." He Jiuniang walked under the eaves and saw Yunmo standing at the door in good health, her heart just dropped.

Qiuyue followed her mother, seeing that Yunmo was nothing serious, she also had a smile on her face.

Passing the bamboo basket in his hand to Yunmo, he said: "Sister Mozi, my family posted some cornbread tonight, and I was afraid that you and Tongtong hadn't had dinner yet, so I brought some here for you."

Yunmo was moved and did not refuse, and took the bamboo basket from Qiuyue.

"Aunt He, sister Qiuyue, please remember me."

Since five years ago, the predecessor was expelled to Yangque Village, and has been taken care of by He Jiuniang and Qiuyue. In the entire Yangque Village, only He Jiuniang and Qiuyue regard the predecessor and Tongtong as human beings. It can be said that there is no assistance from He Jiuniang and Qiuyue , I am afraid that Tongtong will not grow up to five years old.

Yunmo knew that the situation of the Qiu family was not good either.

He Jiuniang is a miserable woman. Qiuyue's father, when Qiuyue was four or five years old, took all the valuable things in the family and ran away with the coquettish vixen, leaving He Jiuniang and her three, but Qiuyue's eldest brother, Qiu Shi, was still a lame , unable to do physical work, plowing the fields and raking all the time, so I can only stay at home and do some manual work. All these years, I have relied on He Jiuniang's hard work and Qiuyue's diligence and thrift to manage the family, so that I can barely support my family.

As the saying goes, a friend in adversity sees the truth, and the great kindness and virtue of the Qiu family, Yunmo took it to heart.

"Aunt He, sister Qiuyue, don't stand outside, come in quickly." Yunmo held the bamboo basket on her wrist, greeted He Jiuniang with a smile, and Qiuyue entered the room.

"You guys came at the right time. I stewed hibiscus sweet potato soup, and there are some leftovers. You should try it too."

Qiuyue was pulled into the house by Yunmo, and He Jiuniang followed.

Yun Xiaotong quickly moved the stool, and greeted the guests like his mother, "Grandma He, Auntie Qiuyue, the hibiscus sweet potato soup cooked by my mother is delicious and sweet, you can taste some before going back."

"Okay, Granny He will taste some before going back." He Jiuniang walked to the table, took the wooden stool and sat down, "We Tongtong are well-behaved and are loved by others."

Qiuyue sat aside, pinching his sallow cheek casually.

"Isn't it? Our little Tongtong is sensible and caring, and is the most likable."

Yunmo was carrying Qiu's bamboo basket, and was going to find something in the kitchen to make room for the cornbread.

"Tongtong, you are here to accompany Grandma He, Aunt Qiuyue, and mother to the kitchen."

"Mother, don't worry, I'm here." Yun Xiaotong patted his chest, looking like a man, and laughed He Jiuniang and Qiuyue directly.

Yunmo also smiled, went out with a bamboo basket, went into the stove, first vacated the cornbread, put it away, then opened the cupboard, took two clean earthenware bowls, filled two large bowls Hibiscus sweet potato soup, carrying it back to the hut.

"Aunt He, sister Qiuyue, this is the hibiscus sweet potato soup that I just stewed, it's still hot, please try it quickly." Yunmo handed the steaming bowl to He Jiuniang and Qiuyue.

Qiuyue smelled a sweet smell, looked at the pink, sweet and yellow thick paste in the clay bowl, couldn't help swallowing, and asked Yunmo: "Sister Mozi, is this soup stewed with wild hibiscus outside the fence?" of?"

Yun Mo nodded slightly, and also pulled a stool to sit down casually, "That's right, this wild hibiscus is an edible flower, rich in nutrition, and can also be used as medicine, it's a good thing."

In her previous life, she ran a restaurant, so she naturally acquired superb cooking skills, and she also has a very good understanding of various ingredients.

After Yunmo finished speaking, Qiuyue opened her eyes wide and looked at Yunmo carefully.

She felt that today's Yunmo was a little different from the past, but she couldn't say exactly what was different.

After looking at it for a long time, he smiled and said, "Sister Mozi, you know a lot. I just saw that the flowers look good, but I didn't know they could be eaten."

Yun Mo pursed her lips and said: "Eat quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."

Yun Xiaotong lay on the edge of the table, moved closer to Qiuyue, put a sallow face in front of her, and urged her like her mother: "Aunt Qiuyue, grandma He, eat quickly, the hibiscus sweet potatoes made by my mother The soup is delicious, more fragrant than meat, I ate a big bowl." After speaking, she smiled sweetly, her eyebrows and eyes curved.

Although it is a thin, sallow little Douding, the little guy has excellent facial features, especially the pair of big eyes, which are dark and bright, the small nose, and the small mouth are also very beautiful. This cute, seven points cute, three points pitiful , Qiuyue was suddenly cute, and Yunmo's face was bloody.

He Jiuniang looked down at the earthenware bowl in front of her, and sighed slightly, "Girl Yunmo, why are you being polite to my aunt? My aunt watched Tongtong grow up, and it's not a rare thing to bring a few corn pancakes here. Here's some It’s so embarrassing to eat something after it’s over.”

Yunmo smiled, "Aunt He, I'm not polite to you, this hibiscus sweet potato soup is not something rare."

Qiuyue took two sips. It was really sweet and delicious. She wiped her mouth and said, "Sister Mozi, I didn't expect the sweet potato soup made from wild hibiscus to be so delicious. Another day, I'll pick a few and go back to stew it."

"It's done, but it's enough to put a dozen flowers in a pot, and it will be bitter." Yun Mo reminded with a smile.

He Jiuniang didn't refuse anymore, holding the pottery bowl, took a few mouthfuls, and drank the whole bowl of hibiscus sweet potato soup. After eating, both mothers were full of praise for Yunmo's stewed hibiscus sweet potato soup.
