Father's Farmer's Wife: Farming Makes a Fortune

Chapter 1 Working in the Field
The twilight is all together, and the sky is like a picture scroll. The white and red clouds are the last beauty before nightfall.The flames in the field were faint, and the blue smoke curled up, and was blown away by the cold wind in the twilight.

Taking advantage of the faint light of the fire, Nanmenyue took the last bundle of straw firmly in her hand, and threw it on the foundation of the field. She patted the dirt on her body, picked up the old straw hat on the ground, and was about to call it a day.

Inside the straw hat, two voles bound by straw vines were staring at her.These two little guys got out when she lit the haystacks in the field, they must have been so smoky, they circled in place, and were caught by Nanmenyue.

It's been almost a month since she traveled to this place, and she has forgotten what meat tastes like, and she doesn't want to let go of even two adult mice.

Walking on the path home, the winter wind hit, messing up the bun tied behind my head.

The winter in Yuyang County is not cold. Judging from the vegetation here, this area should be located in the tropics. The winter without snow is a bit monotonous, but it is also very warm and comfortable, just like the people here. .

The night was getting dark very fast, and the road gradually became unclear. Nanmenyue quickened her pace, but it was obviously difficult for her bloated body to move quickly on this weedy path.

In front, Qi Yinger was coming here with a lantern in hand. Seeing the huge figure twisting in front of him, he quickened his pace and trotted over, "Mother, mother." He shouted loudly, afraid that her mother would recognize him at night not out of him.

After a month of 'rehearsal', Nanmenyue was able to respond to the kid who called his mother, "It's so dark, what are you doing here?" She took the lantern from Qi Yinger's hand, Wiping off his runny nose again, he finally looked a little bit like a mother in his gestures.

"Grandma called me to see if you fell asleep in the ditch." Qi Ying'er said seriously, he was only six years old, and he didn't know what a joke was.

Nanmen Yue gave him a white look, and deliberately hid the straw hat that was intended to be handed to Qi Yinger, "I fell asleep and just woke up." She just traveled back to the days when she went to work in the field every time Always fall asleep tired.

She obviously goes to bed early every night, but she still feels sleepy during the day. She thinks this is a common problem of fat people, but it is much better now. Although she can still yawn, she can't fall asleep even if she can barely hold on.

Qi Ying'er listened and giggled, holding Nanmenyue tightly with her skinny little hands, and the two walked forward in unison.

"Mother, let's let Grandpa plant gourds in the yard too, shall we?"

"You want to eat gourd melon? Isn't our pumpkin finished?"

Qi Ying'er shook his head seriously, "I want grandpa to clock gourd melons, and if I make seven melons, I will have seven brothers, and they will go to the fields to help you work, and you can sleep soundly at home." One word at a time, the words are very serious, and the appearance of the small mouth is very funny.

Nanmenyue wanted to laugh, but she couldn't, her heart was warm. Qi Ying'er must have heard the story about the gourd baby she told last night, so she said today that she asked his grandpa to grow gourd melons in the yard Well, I didn't expect this little guy to be very tender at such a young age.

"Okay, let's let Grandpa grow gourds in the yard when we go back."

She agreed to Qi Yinger, then squatted down and let him lie on her generous back. Although she was very tired after a day of farm work, she still had the strength to carry this kid on her back.

After returning home from the field, Mrs. Zhuang was already preparing dinner.Mr. Qi was fiddling with his wooden table in the yard. It is said that it was for Qi Yinger to sit on and learn to read. When he saw Nanmenyue coming back, he raised his head and said hello, and continued to work.

Nanmenyue knelt down to let Qi Yinger get down, not letting him see the field mouse on the straw hat, and wanted to surprise him later.

Qi Ying'er landed on both feet, and went straight to Master Qi, who wanted to tell Grandpa about growing gourds.

Nanmenyue didn't bother their grandfather and grandson, and the two field mice with straw hats went straight to the kitchen.Seeing Mrs. Zhuang nestled in the stove and lighting a fire, she suddenly became playful. She approached slowly with catty steps, and then put the two voles in her hand on Mrs. Zhuang's shoulders.

The old woman noticed something strange about her shoulders, she didn't turn her head, but just put her hand like dry wood over, touched the fluffy ones, and seemed to move, the moment she turned her face, the ear-piercing screams reached Nanmenyue's eardrums. A deafening sound, definitely not the voice of an old lady in her fifties.

"You who deserve a thousand knives, play with my old woman, and see if I don't beat you to death." She took a stick to hit Nanmenyue, as soon as she approached, Nanmenyue handed over the field mouse, and she had no choice but to go again. step back.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law just played together in the kitchen.

Qi Yinger, who was attracted by the screams, also joined the tug-of-war. He didn't know what grandma was playing with his mother, but he was happy just looking at the two blinking mice in his mother's hand.

Nanmenyue hid a little panting, so she simply stopped and took two sticks to let the old woman vent her anger. Unexpectedly, she was also afraid of mice. Just seeing her expression that was so frightened as if she was about to faint, she felt very funny.

The old woman still had some lingering fears, she glanced at Nanmen Yue, "I'm going to tell my old man, your wife bullies me, let him take care of me." She knew how to deal with wood all day long, and she turned into a wood.

Nanmenyue put the mouse on the table, and pushed Qi Yinger over, "Go, go, I lent you my son to testify." She was about to kill the two mice in her hand, a bit bloody , I don't want Qi Yinger to see it.

Qi Ying'er heard that she had been borrowed by her grandma, and obediently took her hand to go out, thinking that she seemed to have forgotten something, then turned her head, "Mother, do you want to pay back the borrowed one?"

"Pay it back, it's not difficult to borrow if you have one." She used a classic saying when borrowing money, just to get rid of Qi Ying'er earlier.

Qi Ying'er seemed to understand, she shook her head and followed her grandmother to the yard.

Seeing him walking away, Nanmenyue found a kitchen knife, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she chopped off the heads of two voles, blood splattering everywhere.

The mice shook their paws a few times before they passed their breath. They picked up the voles and tore a hole along the fur of the neck. The whole mouse skin was peeled off cleanly. Then they cut off the tail with a knife again, and opened the inside of the mouse. Take it out and throw it in a tub for cleaning.

The washed rat meat is propped up with bamboo chopsticks to dry out the water, then a few grains of coarse salt mixed with some water are taken out from the earthen pot, stirred and melted, and then spread evenly on the rat meat.

After tidying up, the sweet potato porridge in the pot was already boiling, and the hot air made a gurgling sound against the lid of the pot.Nanmenyue found a wooden spoon, lifted the lid of the pot and stirred the bottom of the pot deftly. Seeing that the sweet potatoes had softened, it meant they were cooked. She covered the pot and was about to turn the fire away.

After traveling for a month, Nanmenyue has changed from a fat woman who goes to sleep when she is full to a fat woman who can work.
