Chapter 39 This fish is really delicious

Just as he was about to go back inside, Mo Qinghe suddenly turned his head and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Afraid that his wife would worry about him, he said softly, "Honey, I'm fine. I feel much better after throwing up."

That's alright, she was really scared. Su Nanxi clutched her chest.

After cleaning him up, Su Nanxi carried him back into the house, settled him in, and then tidied up the bathroom.

Thinking that her cheap husband should have something nourishing, since it's late at night, I'll make some soup with two eggs.

After helping Mo Qinghe finish his egg soup and seeing that he was alright, she went to fetch water for a bath.

She was covered in sweat, smelly and sticky, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable.

After washing up, I went back to the room, took his hand, and asked if he was still in pain.

He opened his eyes slightly and said softly, "My leg still hurts a little, but it's nothing serious."

However, Su Nanxi only heard the first half of the sentence. As soon as she heard that it still hurt, she immediately rolled up her sleeves, took off Mo Qinghe's pants, took some essential oil from her space, and started massaging Mo Qinghe.

Mo Qinghe was truly powerless at this moment, unable even to refuse, because he was still too weak to speak loudly, and his wife, focused on massaging him, didn't hear him at all.

When his wife pressed on his inner thigh, he felt incredibly embarrassed, his face burning hot. He felt like his whole body was about to be cooked, while his wife acted as if nothing had happened!

After a massage, it was indeed effective. Mo Qinghe's legs no longer hurt, and he even felt a warm current flowing through them, which felt warm and comfortable.

Su Nanxi was exhausted and fell asleep as soon as she hit the bed.

She gets up at dawn to make steamed buns, her eyes closed, relying entirely on her skill.

Grandma Mo was extremely worried. She knew that her third daughter-in-law had prepared a medicinal bath for her third son, and if he was not feeling well at night, he would definitely be in a lot of trouble. Judging from her daughter-in-law's condition, she must have been in a lot of trouble, so she urged her to go back to sleep.

Qin also said, "Mute girl, you should go back now. We can handle this. Let's go!"

Zhao wiped her hands clean, pulled her up, led her to the door, opened it for her, gently pushed her inside, and then closed the door behind her.

Su Nanxi simply climbed back into bed and continued sleeping.

Mo Qinghe woke up and saw that his wife had returned, but she immediately fell asleep again. He felt extremely sorry for her, so he gently stroked her face and lightly kissed her forehead.

When Su Nanxi got up, the sun had already risen, the children had all gone out, and only Mo Qinghe was left at home.

Ugh! Why didn't you call her?

She ate breakfast, slung her basket over her shoulder, and went out.

"Oh! It's the mute girl! Why are you only going out now? Yunmei went up the mountain early this morning!"

On the way, I met Chen Qiuxia and stopped her.

She raised an eyebrow. Something's up?

Chen Qiuxia said with a smile, "It's nothing, we just ran into each other and chatted for a bit."

Who wants to talk to you!

Su Nanxi stepped aside, and Chen Qiuxia wasn't angry. She looked in the direction of the Mo family, rolled her eyes, and walked in the opposite direction.

With no children around, Su Nanxi was free to dig for medicinal herbs, as she knew she wouldn't be able to escape if she were discovered soon.

Around noon, Su Nanxi appeared, met up with the children, and since there were no wild animals, they went back.

As I passed by the river, I noticed that the water level seemed to have dropped a bit. Seeing many snails on the riverbank, I couldn't resist touching them.

The children put down their baskets, took off their shoes, rolled up their trousers, and happily went into the water to collect snails.

Seeing this, the adults didn't say anything, took the child's basket, and went home.

Mo Jiaxing ran home and got two baskets to collect the snails.

Su Nanxi saw fish in the river. He hadn't eaten fish in a long time and was craving it, so he released some spring water to lure the fish over and then scooped them up with a basket.

"Wow! There's a fish! Auntie caught a fish!"

They stopped touching the snails and all ran to look at the fish.

Su Nanxi caught five or six fish, not too big or too small, they can fry them and eat them when they get home.

Amidst cheers and laughter, a group of children returned home.

Su Nanxi cooked herself, using all the ingredients she had. She fried two, boiled two, and saved two to eat another day.

Zhao's eyes lit up. "Mute girl, you cooked this fish so well! It has no fishy smell, it's so fragrant, even better than the ones in restaurants!"

Mo Lao Er replied, "When did you ever eat fish at a restaurant?"

Zhao glared at Mo Lao Er, who immediately lowered his head and stopped eating.

Su Nanxi smiled, and the children smiled along with her.

Su Nanxi kept putting food on Mo Qinghe's plate, telling him to eat more to replenish his energy, and Mo Qinghe happily finished eating.

Mo Yunmei has learned her lesson. At mealtimes, she'll crawl out of bed if she has to, otherwise she won't get any of the good food.

Eating the fried fish at this moment felt incredibly delicious, both fragrant and crispy. I didn't say anything, just kept my head down and kept picking at the food and eating rice.

It was too hot, and the children still wanted to eat grass jelly, so Su Nanxi made two more baskets to dry.

It was so hot during my afternoon nap that Su Nanxi thought, "I need to build a new house; it's not insulated at all!"

Building a house costs money; it seems I need to raise more funds.

Unable to bear it any longer, she saw that Mo Qinghe was also covered in sweat, so she simply helped him take off his clothes, leaving him only in his underpants, so that he could stay cool.

Just as she was about to take off one of her own clothes, she caught a glimpse of Mo Qinghe staring at her, and suddenly she didn't dare to take it off anymore.

She took my hand and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Mo Qinghe's eyes were deep and unfathomable as he softly uttered, "Don't take your clothes off in front of me. I'm a man."

Su Nanxi was speechless. She didn't have a single item left, and besides, in his current state, she could knock him unconscious with one slap. What was she thinking?

In the end, she could only sleep in long sleeves and pants, which made her very irritable from the heat.

Unable to sleep, she got up, carried two wooden basins from the kitchen into the room, and then filled another smaller wooden basin with water.

Mo Qinghe assumed she was using water to cool down, so he didn't stop her and let her do as she pleased. He closed his eyes to rest, but he was also too hot to sleep.

But what can he do if he doesn't sleep on such a hot day? It's even hotter outside!

As I rested, I felt that the room wasn't so hot anymore, and after a while, the room actually felt cool!

Mo Qinghe opened his eyes with a start, and tried to feel it. It really wasn't a hallucination; it was indeed cool!

Turning his head, he saw his wife sitting by the wooden tub, leisurely fanning herself with a fan, while the wooden tub next to her was shrouded in steam!

"Wife!" Mo Qinghe exclaimed in surprise.

Su Nanxi paused, turned to look at him, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Mo Qinghe pointed tremblingly at the wooden basin, "What, what is that?"

Sigh! How can she possibly explain it clearly!

I simply placed the small wooden basin in front of him, then grabbed one of his hands and put it in the basin.

Mo Qinghe looked at the rising mist and felt instinctively afraid of the unknown. When his wife pressed his hand inside, he was thinking, "Oh no, my hand is going to be ruined!"

As a result, a cool sensation came from my hand, and that was it.

After a long pause, Mo Qinghe finally uttered a single word, "Ice!"

A moment later, he suddenly laughed excitedly, like a fool, fanning the mist towards himself with both hands, very childishly.

"Honey, how did you make this ice?"
