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

Chapter 45
"Yue'er." Mrs. Zhuang yelled first, thinking about how to say to make Nanmen Yue more acceptable, "The vegetables and eggs are all given by your Aunt Liu, and I have already made a rice vat for the rice. , and gave a capon, and I locked it in the rabbit cage, and she also planted some spring vegetable seedlings for me, and you will come back as soon as you plant them in the ground." She reported everything Liu gave to her. Nanmenyue.

"Oh, Aunt Liu is really extravagant this time, what important matter did she discuss with you, as for giving you so many good things." Nanmenyue's tone was slow, and she sounded a bit tricky, she just saw it Pang Dun's figure was at the bamboo house, wondering why Aunt Liu left and Pang Dun was still there. After Mrs. Zhuang explained this, she also guessed why Aunt Liu would give these things.

I just feel that such a small matter can make her old lady so nervous, but I want to tease her.

Mrs. Zhuang heard that Nanmenyue's tone was not quite right, and she didn't know how to open her mouth. If the old man knew that she had let Fatty live without Nanmenyue's permission, the old man would definitely talk about it endlessly. She opened her mouth He hurriedly explained, "Yes, yes, it's not a big deal, Fatty..." In a hurry, he couldn't speak.

Nanmenyue finally couldn't bear it anymore, and laughed out loud, "I know, Aunt Liu is going to take care of her daughter-in-law, so she will leave Fatty here to take care of her for a few days?" She guessed it all.

Mrs. Zhuang nodded dully, she didn't understand why Nanmenyue smiled like that, "Don't worry, Aunt Liu will be back in a few days, Fatty won't stay for too long." She promised solemnly, as if doing something something bad.

Seeing her anxious explanation, Nanmenyue laughed so hard that tears came out, why didn't she realize that her old woman is such a serious person, "Okay, just kidding, Fatty will stay for a few days. No problem, Aunt Liu has helped us so much, even if she didn't give us these benefits, she should help take care of Fatty."

Mrs. Zhuang heard that Nanmenyue was not angry, but she was angry herself. She panicked from the bottom of her heart. She dared to make fun of her old lady. She was getting smaller and smaller. She turned around and ignored Nanmenyue, and went to the ground.

Seeing that the joke was getting bigger, Nanmen Yue hurried over, "Miss Zhuang, don't be so stingy, I know I'm wrong, I'll punish myself to carry water to help you sprinkle the vegetable seedlings, okay?"

Mrs. Zhuang still ignored it, and squatted down to plant the vegetable seedlings.

Nanmenyue was bored, so she had no choice but to go down to the river with a wooden bucket to fetch water.The wooden bucket had a deep mouth, and standing on the river bank, I couldn’t fill it with water, so I rolled up my trousers and saw that the old woman’s crab basket was not far away. At noon, I put oil residue in it, and wanted to see if my method would work. , then pulled the hemp rope to pull the crab basket up.

With a bang, the crab basket was lifted out of the water, and the river prawns in the basket, the size of a little finger, kept bouncing around in it after coming out of the water, not to mention how joyful it was.

Nanmenyue looked at the shrimps and crabs that had already covered Loudi, and didn't care about carrying water. She ran towards Mrs. Zhuang with a basket in her hand, trotting all the way like a spy announcing the good news, "Mother, mother, look quickly." She lifted the basket in front of the old woman, the shrimp in the basket bounced, and the water droplets bounced on her face.

"Hey! This is a great harvest." She put down the few vegetable seedlings in her hand, and didn't care about getting angry with Nanmenyue. She reached out and took the basket. Usually, the baskets were empty, but suddenly she saw this. 'Returning with a full load', the mood is not to mention how joyful it is.

"Pick off these vegetable seedlings, and remember to pour water on them. I'll collect the other two baskets as well."

Nanmenyue looked at her excited like a child, so naturally she couldn't disturb her pleasure, "Follow Madam's orders." She took the opportunity to become an obedient daughter-in-law again.

Mrs. Zhuang hurriedly returned to the stove without carrying the baskets and put them in the wooden tub, then went down the river with her elbows. Her three baskets were placed in different waters, and Nanmenyue might not be able to find them, so she had to Going out by myself, I haven't enjoyed the joy of fishing and harvesting for a long time.

Looking at her busy figure, Nanmenyue felt happy. It seems that there is a big meal tonight.She knelt down and planted the remaining few vegetable seedlings, and went back to the river to fetch water.After filling the bucket with water, she was about to pick it up with a pole, but when she heard the old woman's sudden scream from behind, she hurried over with the pole.

"What's the matter?" Nanmenyue asked worriedly, walked up to the old woman, and leaned over.

Mrs. Zhuang pointed tremblingly at the basket that had sunk back into the water, "Snake, a snake got into the basket."

Nanmenyue heard that there was a snake inside, so she quickly pulled the hemp rope with her hand, the snake must have seen the crab in the basket and got in to enjoy the fisherman's profit, if the basket was not put away, the snake would kill the shrimp ate up.She took the pole, pierced the tail into the basket, and lifted the basket out of the water.

The eyes of the basket were only as thick as a thumb, and the water snake couldn't get out of the bulging belly it ate. It almost ate up all the river prawns in the basket, except for two crabs that bared their teeth and clawed at it.

Nanmen Yue fixed her eyes and recognized that it was a yellow-bellied water snake, also known as a mud snake. It is a relatively common water snake. It has been put into breeding in the 21st century and has become a delicacy on every dining table.

It seems that tonight's dinner is not only rich, but also nourishing.

"Yue'er, you're really killing it." Mrs. Zhuang's scalp felt numb when she saw the snake spit out its core.

"It's not fresh if you kill it now, save it for dinner tonight!" She carried the basket into the barrel with a pole, and carried the water back to the field with a pole.

Mrs. Zhuang also hurried over with the remaining crab pot. She was afraid of snakes, so she didn't dare to get close to the wooden barrel. The vegetable seedlings were not drenched, so she threw them to Nanmenyue, and she washed the rice for dinner by herself.

Seeing her washing the pot, Nanmenyue shouted at her, "Mother, cook white rice, don't cook gruel!" There are good dishes tonight, it's a pity that they don't go with white rice.

Mrs. Zhuang also wanted to cook white rice. Mrs. Liu got so much rice, it was enough to eat for a few days.

Hearing her answer, Nanmenyue found the rotten pot that Mrs. Zhuang had left not far away, and scooped water to drench the vegetable seedlings. Drain the bucket.

After pouring the vegetable seedlings back, the old woman was pouring the river prawns into the wooden barrels and began to select them. Tonight, they will eat the lifeless ones first.

Nanmenyue squatted down and leaned over, and pushed the old woman: "Mother, for the sake of the crabs, are you not angry?"

Mrs. Zhuang ignored her, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she was not such a stingy person.
