Chapter 42: Mung Bean Soup Served After
returning home, Shen Zhihuan originally planned to take another nap, but who knew that after tossing and turning on the bed for a long time, sleepiness did not brew, but instead she broke out in sweat.
Shen Zhihuan, who was sweating all over, had no intention of going back to sleep. He followed the memory of the original owner and dug out the mung beans that Li Qiuhua had placed in the long cabinet.
After sorting through the shriveled ones, Shen Zhihuan poured some hot water from the basin under the grape trellis to soak them, preparing to soak them for a while before cooking them.
Being idle, Shen Zhihuan took out the stiff cotton wool from the house and dried it on the rope in the yard.
Because of the age, the cotton batting has turned yellow, and there is no trace of the pure whiteness that should belong to cotton.
Looking at the cotton wool without any softness, Shen Zhihuan decided to discuss it with Comrade Li Qiuhua that night.
Otherwise, just these cotton sheets that are so hard that they can kill someone, can they keep you warm in the winter?
The beginning of autumn has passed for several days.
It's time to start preparing autumn clothes.
There are also cotton-padded jackets...
we have to start preparing them.
God, with so many things, Comrade Li Qiuhua can sew them until the end of the year?
Shen Zhihuan patted his forehead, which was beginning to swell.
It seems that I still have to find an opportunity to enter the city again.
Find a tailor shop and get it done in one step.
This saves Comrade Li Qiuhua from being tired all day long and having to burn the midnight oil to fight at night.
Shen Zhihuan boiled the mung bean soup in the pot, then took out the cans and bottles that Li Qiuhua had stored in the corner of the room, cleaned them and exposed them in the sun.
While cooking mung bean soup, Shen Zhihuan steamed two eggs for lunch.
After lunch, Shen Zhihuan poured the mung bean soup chilled with well water into a can, tightened it, put it in the basket where little Weidong dug wild vegetables and went out.
The autumn harvest of the entire Panshi Village is coming to an end, and the ten production teams only have the piece of land near Dongshan left. It is estimated that the harvest will only be completed in a day or two.
All that's left is to plant rapeseeds and sow wheat.
When Shen Zhihuan arrived at the mountainside, everyone had just finished their work and were resting by the forest at the foot of the mountain.
"Third Sister!" When Xiao Weidong saw Shen Zhihuan, who was picking rice ears in the field beside the mountain, he put down his basket and rushed forward happily.
"Third Sister! Have you had lunch?" Xiao Weidong looked up at his little face that was flushed by the sun.
"Eat, have you forgotten what Third Sister told you?" Shen Zhihuan took out the handkerchief in his pocket and wiped the sweat from Xiao Weidong's forehead.
"I didn't forget. In the afternoon, I picked up things in a shady place on the edge of the mountain instead of going out into the sun." Xiao Weidong glanced at the people sitting by the forest to cool off and whispered.
"That's good!" Shen Zhihuan tapped the tip of Xiao Weidong's nose.
With the high temperature of 36 to 7 degrees, I would be sweating just sitting in the room, let alone under the sun.
"Zhihuan, the sun is so bright outside, why did you come out?" Li Qiuhua, who was resting in the forest, heard Xiao Weidong calling Third Sister and hurriedly came out.
Seeing that there was nothing strange on Shen Zhihuan's face, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I couldn't sleep after I woke up in the morning, so I got up and cooked some mung bean soup." Shen Zhihuan took out the cans and bottles from the basket and stuffed a bottle into each of Li Qiuhua and Xiao Weidong's hands.
"It's delicious!" Xiao Weidong unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip. The mung bean soup flowed down the corner of his mouth before he could swallow it.
"If it tastes good, drink more. We have a big pot at home!" Shen Zhihuan used a handkerchief to wipe away the mung bean soup dripping from the corner of Xiao Weidong's mouth.
"I think you want to go up the mountain!" Li Qiuhua, who unscrewed the lid and took a sip, glanced at the sickle in the basket and said angrily. Before Shen Zhihuan could speak, a middle-aged woman in her forties came over.
"Girl Zhihuan, are you going to dig wild vegetables in the mountains?"
The middle-aged woman looked at Shen Zhihuan and looked up and down, "It's really a woman's transformation. I haven't seen you for a while, but girl Zhihuan is becoming more and more beautiful."
The original owner . In the past, the skull was covered with a layer of human skin, and because he was ill every three days, he drank more medicine than porridge. Over time, the layer of human skin seemed to have been soaked in a dark potion. of.
The whole person looks as sallow as a person who is about to die.
In addition, the original owner was a thoughtful and dull person. He would not tell his family anything when he encountered something, and he would just stay in his own heart. As time went by, his body was getting worse and worse.
After a period of careful maintenance, Shen Zhihuan has gained some flesh on her face and body, her cheeks are no longer sunken, and her complexion has of course improved accordingly.
Her palm-sized face was as white and tender as a peeled egg.
"Yeah! While the weather is nice, I want to dig some wild vegetables and dry them." Shen Zhihuan nodded with a smile.
"Don't go in, just dig some randomly on the side of the mountain. After the rapeseed seedlings are planted in a few days, and the busy farming season is over, I will take the seeds to dig some and come back to dry them." Li Qiuhua couldn't help but warn.
"Mom, I understand." Shen Zhihuan nodded slightly and walked towards the path up the mountain.
"I haven't seen you for a few days. How come the three girls of the Shen family have changed so much? They look like fairies."
"That's right! I haven't seen you for just a few days during the busy farming period. How come they are almost unrecognizable?
"No, this is also in the production team. If it were outside, I would really dare not admit it." " No
wonder Boss Zhu from Xilin Village is so generous, including eggs, rice and meat."
The widow curled her lips, "What's the point of being pretty? It's just a shortcoming..."
"Work! Why are you still sitting here?! Waiting for dark? If you can't finish the work today, my work points will be halved." Without waiting. After Widow Chen finished muttering, Wang Tiezhu's roar rang out.
When it comes to work points, no one dares to be lazy anymore, so they get up and get down to work quickly.
Shen Zhihuan has only been to Xihou Mountain, which is closest to her home. In order not to get lost, Shen Zhihuan walked all the way to observe the surrounding environment.
Maybe there were many people coming to this mountain. Shen Zhihuan walked for more than half an hour and didn't see anything valuable, but there were really a lot of wild vegetables scattered around.
Shen Zhihuan, who had no intention of going into the mountain to hunt for treasure, filled the basket and walked down the mountain without looking back.
Within a few minutes of walking, Shen Zhihuan saw a pheasant with a long tail flapping out of the mountain col.
Shen Zhihuan swallowed hard and immediately put down the basket he was carrying, ready to go up and fight with him.
Before she could take action, she heard the roar of animals in the distance.
The birds in the forest seemed to be frightened, flapping their wings and flying around.
Shen Zhihuan couldn't tell what kind of animal the sound was, but her sixth sense told her that she couldn't handle it with her small body.
If you can't do it, you can only run away.
Shen Zhihuan picked up the basket and ran down the mountain.
Before she ran very far, Shen Zhihuan heard the "ouch" roar coming closer and closer behind her.
She looked back subconsciously and was immediately frightened to death.
