Chapter 50
When Puhuang came back, she was still holding a sack in her hand, shaking it. The weather is hot recently, and she doesn’t catch pheasants and hares anymore. Occasionally, she will fork two fish and come back to adjust the taste. The food is very light. After the two-day market, I went to buy some mung beans and sugar and came back to cook mung bean soup.

When they got home, Pu Huang looked at the two extra people in the room with some surprise. The Hong family uncle and the Hong family second master were sitting face to face. From their flushed faces, it could be seen that they had just experienced a big dispute.

He gave Hong Hao'an a look and asked what was going on, with doubts in his heart, Puhuang still greeted the two politely, and went into the kitchen to prepare tea.

When the second master of the Hong family saw Puhuang coming back, his eyes flashed with embarrassment, and he said to Hong Hao'an angrily: "I'll go first, you'd better return all the money you borrowed, how can I have your son, shame on me Throw it away."

After finishing speaking, he left angrily without saying hello to the Hong family uncle.

Seeing that the second master of the Hong family had left, the expression on the face of the uncle of the Hong family changed, "Hao'an, why don't you tell your uncle that you are short of money to build a house, go borrow it from the villagers, and tell me if you can borrow it or not. How many blank eyes?"

"Uncle, there is enough money to build a house. You don't have to worry about borrowing the money for other purposes." Hong Haoan said softly, then paused, "Uncle, do you think I've embarrassed you by borrowing the money?"

The uncle of the Hong family reached out and patted Hong Haoan on the shoulder, with some regret in his eyes, "I was told by the villagers for sure, but this is not the main thing. I just feel sad. If I didn't care about your father back then, would you treat us right?" Wouldn't it be so unfamiliar?"

Hong Haoan was stunned for a moment, obviously surprised that the Hong family uncle would say such a thing, and he didn't know how to continue, when Puhuang came over with a bowl of cooled fennel soup, "Uncle, drink a bowl of fennel soup, it can dispel dampness and clear heat."

"Okay, okay." Uncle Hong took it with a smile. When he came, he saw that the two dilapidated thatched houses were neatly arranged and very clean. He knew in his heart that it was all thanks to Puhuang. Sure enough, he chose the right person.

Puhuang brought out two more bowls, gave Hong Haoan a bowl, and drank a bowl for himself. Almost every household has a few clumps of fenugreek in front of and behind the house, and they are never taken care of. They fend for themselves. , but it is still very good to make soup and drink it as tea on a hot day. Sometimes, I will put a few salted radishes in it, or put some salt in it, it tastes good.

"Uncle, we have enough money to build a house. The reason why we borrow it is to avoid some troubles, you know." Pu Huang didn't elaborate on the troubles, "And, if we need anything, we will come to you Borrowing money, isn't this an example for other relatives who can come to borrow money at any time, and the influence is not good."

Uncle Hong was stunned. He didn't think so much. In his opinion, Hong Hao'an has a disability and cannot engage in heavy physical labor. It's okay for him as an uncle to help a little bit. It used to be a taboo, but now his nephew has a family. I can do it openly and aboveboard. I never thought that this would give other relatives a signal that they can come to the door at any time to signal the autumn wind.

Thinking about it, Uncle Hong couldn't help but smile wryly, "It's just that I didn't think it through carefully. You guys can't think it through."

"Uncle, why do you say that? It's normal to be concerned about chaos." Pu Huang looked at the sky and asked Hong Hao'an to talk to Uncle Hong's family. It was nothing more than some experience and precautions about building a house.And she herself went into the kitchen, wrapped a fish with fresh taro leaves, put a few handfuls of fresh vegetables in the basket, covered it with a coarse cloth, put it at her feet, and gave Hong Haoan a look at the same time.

After receiving Puhuang's signal, Hong Hao'an nodded slightly, smiled slightly at Uncle Hong and said, "Uncle, my lady went up the mountain before and brought back some fresh food, you can take it back later."

"How can this happen? It's not easy for you, you should keep it to yourself." Uncle Hong waved his hands again and again. Hong Hao'an and his wife are not easy at all. I believe they must save money to build a house. If he brings things back, won't he Let them increase the burden.

"Uncle, you can take it home. We have some leftovers for ourselves. Besides, the weather is hot recently. I believe grandma and aunts don't have much appetite. These dishes taste good after being mixed with water." Pu Huang also persuaded. She has heard all the precautions that Uncle Jia told Hong Hao'an about building a house. These are what the second master of the Hong family should do, but it is a bit ironic for someone else to say it.

The uncle of the Hong family thought about it, and it was indeed the case, so he no longer refused, "Well, then, Carpenter Wang, I will go to say hello to him, and if you encounter other problems, come to me. Do something."

Hong Hao'an bowed, "Hao'an is here to thank Uncle."

The uncle of the Hong family nodded, picked up the basket, went out calmly, and walked all the way to his home, thinking that when he passed by Xiao's house, he would buy some hawthorn cakes and ask them to send them to Hong Hao'an.

After returning home, Mrs. Guan looked at the things in the basket, and couldn't help being very surprised. The juicy green vegetables were almost out of season or already out of season. How could they be so tender? Besides, where are the vegetables on the mountain? Such "wild vegetables" can grow anywhere.

In the evening, the Guan family talked about this matter with the uncle of the Hong family, "I see, Hao'an's wife is not easy, and now I'm starting to worry, whether Hao'an can keep her."

Uncle Hong shook his cattail fan and asked in surprise, "Why do you say that?"

"You don't know what's in the basket today, is there any difference in the evening meal?" Mrs. Guan glanced at the Hong family uncle.

"The two plates of green vegetables are much fresher, and the fish soup is delicious." Uncle Hong said after thinking for a while.

"The water spinach and amaranth are both very juicy. They look like they were from early summer. Hao'an and the others have no land. What kind of one should they buy? You said that Hao'an's wife brought them down from the mountain. Could it be that she opened them on the mountain? How did she manage to grow vegetables in such a barren mountainous land?" Mrs. Guan also suffered a lot when she was young. Even now, she is still working hard in the vegetable field. She doesn't think she has the ability to grow such a barren mountainous land. Juicy vegetables.

"What? Open up land to grow vegetables on the mountain?" Uncle Hong opened his mouth wide in surprise, and put down the cattail fan in his hand, "How is it possible? As far as I know, there is no land suitable for farming near Qingniu Mountain. Could it be that she ran away?" Have you gone to Woniu Mountain?" Everyone is familiar with Qingniu Mountain, but when it comes to Woniu Mountain, they are more afraid, and almost no one is familiar with it.

"It's hard to say." Guan turned over and pushed Uncle Hong, "You can tell Hao'an sometime to tell his wife not to run too far. There are many poisonous snakes and beasts on this mountain."

"Success, I'll mention it to Hao'an sometime."

In other words, after delivering some vegetables to Uncle Hong's family, Puhuang originally expected that the vegetables would be gone by tomorrow, but she didn't care, and planned to save some, and put some in the salty porridge tomorrow morning.

Just when he was about to start cooking, a cute looking girl about the same age as Hong Xiaomei stood at the door with an oil paper bag in her hand, waving her small hand at Puhuang, "Is it Mrs. Puhuang?" , I’ll bring you hawthorn cake!”

Hong Haoan came out in his wheelchair. He didn't know the little girl, "Hawthorn Cake? Are you Uncle Xiao's daughter?"

"Yes, Brother Hao'an, do you recognize me?" Xiao Qing said with a chuckle, and put the oiled paper bag into Hong Hao'an's arms, "Uncle Hong bought this, I told you to try it, my father made it , tastes good, sweet and sour."

As soon as they heard that Uncle Hong had asked him to deliver it, the two of them understood in their hearts. Hong Haoan nodded, "Then I'll trouble you to make a trip."

Pu Huang washed her hands, this girl looks naive, compared with Hong Xiaomei, she is more likable, after looking at it, she took out a handful of the grass roots that she dug today, "there is nothing good at home, You can eat and play with this grass root." Originally, this was for myself and Hong Hao'an, and I dug a lot.

Xiao Qing saw it, her eyes lit up, and she took it politely, "Thank you, Mrs. Puhuang, my name is Xiao Qing, how do you know I like this, but you can't find it, those boys are too annoying. "

"It's fine if you like it. If you want to eat it in the future, you can come and find me. In Qiuli, there are more wild fruits on the mountain." People with foreign surnames can live in Kangping Luona and lay down a foundation, which shows that they are not bad. no harm.

"Wow, sister-in-law Puhuang is amazing, I am so envious of Wen Lin, with such a sister-in-law, can I go up the mountain with you in the future?" Xiao Qing's eyes sparkled, her face was full of anticipation.

This Puhuang didn't dare to agree, "It's not safe on the mountain, your parents won't agree, it's getting late, go back quickly."

Xiao Qing listened, and went back with a small mouth, and didn't think that Puhuang was trying to evade. Their Xiao family had a foreign surname, and they made a good living. It was inevitable that they would be jealous. Huang gave her a different feeling, and she couldn't hide her words in her heart, so she wanted to go back and share with her sisters.

After Xiao Qing left, Pu Huang was about to enter the kitchen, but Hong Haoan opened the oiled paper bag and picked up a small piece of hawthorn cake, "Lady, open your mouth."

Pu Huang was startled for a moment, then the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he approached Hong Haoan's fingers, and bit the hawthorn cake into his mouth, his soft lips brushed his fingers intentionally or unintentionally.Seeing Hong Hao'an retracting his hand like lightning, with reddened ears, a smile flashed in Puhuang's eyes, and he went into the house to light the fire and wash the rice.

Hong Haoan, who was left alone, was sitting there, thinking about the feeling from his fingertips just now, his heartbeat was a little out of order, did the lady just bump into it by accident or on purpose?The more I thought about it, the more I felt blushed. I wrapped the oiled paper bag and turned the wheelchair into the house. Let's go back to the room to cool off.

 Sweat, this is yesterday's update, forgot...
