Chapter 108: Oysters are not eaten in vain
"Sister-in-law, please come in and sit down." Lin Xia looked up and saw that it was Yang Hongmei. An An had already run to open the yard door.
"Auntie, come in and sit down." The little guy is already very familiar with the neighbor next door.
"Oh, your An An is so well behaved!" Yang Hongmei praised her when she saw her little adult-like appearance.
The little fellow had already run into the house, dragging a stool outside to move it for the guests.
"Hey! Be careful, I'll do it!" Yang Hongmei was a little scared when she saw that she was not even as tall as the back of the stool, and was afraid that she would fall.
"Would you like to play with your sister?" Yang Hongmei put her daughter on the ground.
An An turned around and ran back into the house. After a while, he came out with a small enamel doll and handed it to Niu Niu.
"Lend it to my sister to play with." After saying that, he looked at Lin Xia, wanting to see her reaction.
"An An is great and knows how to share!" Lin Xia gave her a thumbs up and praised her.
This child is getting cuter and cuter. I wonder if it’s because I’ve listened to a lot of her stories. Although she hasn’t had many playmates, the little girl is not overbearing at all and is very generous.
Yang Hongmei looked at him in amazement, thinking that this child was really well taught, being polite and generous.
Seeing that the two of them were having a good time, Lin Xia squatted down again and prepared to water the seeds.
"What seeds did you plant?" Yang Hongmei saw her digging in the ground, preparing to water it.
“I planted some tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and radishes.” In fact, she also wanted to plant some cucumbers, but she was afraid that the cucumber racks would be blown away by the typhoon. Wouldn’t all her work be in vain?
She felt that shorter vegetables should not be a problem. After all, the tall people would hold up the sky if it collapsed, so the short people would be a little safer.
Yang Hongmei wanted to remind her, but she avoided her question and asked curiously, "Why don't you grow cucumbers or beans?"
When Lin Xia heard her ask this, she thought she had guessed wrong, and asked hesitantly, "Won't the typhoon blow it down?"
If it doesn't fall, then she will plant some.
"No, no, it's indeed not suitable for planting. Our location is too close to the sea, and the wind is strong, so the racks can't stay put." Yang Hongmei thought back to when she first came to join the army.
At that time, seeing that there was a lot of space in the yard, I was very motivated and planted a lot of vegetables and fruits. However, after a typhoon, only some vegetables that were clinging to the ground were left, and those that were on the racks were left with only a few vines.
Lu Yuxiu finished washing the dishes and saw people in the yard as soon as he came out.
"Sister-in-law is here?"
"Hey, why didn't I see Xiao Lu?" Yang Hongmei asked casually when she saw that he hadn't wiped the water off his hands.
"He just went to wash the dishes." Lin Xia said with a smile, remembering the bet she and her husband had made.
When Yang Hongmei heard this, she said enviously, "Your Xiao Lu is really like this!" and gave Lin Xia the same thumbs up gesture.
The tone was full of envy, "It would be great if my old Wu could take the initiative to wash the dishes someday!"
"Just train her a little!" Seeing how envious she was, Lin Xia offered some advice.
Lu Yuxiu picked up the hoe to break up the large clods of earth. Hearing this, his eyebrows raised and his ears pricked up to listen.
"What...what is training?" Yang Hongmei was immediately moved when she heard it, but she didn't quite understand.
"Does your husband, Mr. Wu, do nothing when he comes home? Does he do things at home like toothpaste? He moves only when you squeeze him?" Lin Xia thought about those characteristics and concluded.
"Yes, yes, yes! It really can't be moved no matter how you move it. There is no life in its eyes. It only moves when you hit it!" Seeing that she was right, he kept nodding in agreement.
"You're doing this and that..." Lin Xia noticed something and turned around. She saw Lu Yuzheng was hoeing the ground seriously and was not eavesdropping. However, she was still a little worried, so she leaned over to Yang Hongmei's ear and said.
"Is this okay?" You're praising him for doing a little work? Praising him?
Yang Hongmei really couldn't figure out whether this would be effective.
Seeing that she didn't hear anything about the most crucial part, Lu Yuxiu knew that the little girl was on guard against him. There was a hint of smile in his eyes. He had plenty of ways to make her speak out.
"Believe me!" Lin Xia patted her chest and guaranteed. Although she had never put it into practice, she had read many tutorials on how to discipline her husband on the Internet before. She didn't expect that she would never use any of them in her life.
Seeing that Xiao Lu worked very diligently at home every day, Yang Hongmei felt that it would be right to listen to Lin Xia!
"By the way, um...were the oysters really picked up on the beach? The ones you sent to me, they tasted really delicious." Yang Hongmei remembered the purpose of her visit.
After Lu Yuxiu sent it to their home, he taught them how to eat it after opening the shell. They had never seen it before, but when they put it in their mouths, it was really delicious, tender and juicy. When they learned that it was picked up from the beach, they were still a little bit unbelievable.
This made Dajun and Xiaojun in their family want to go to the beach early in the night to pick up some.
"Yes, it's called oysters. They are very nutritious and can..." Lin Xia almost said out the well-known benefits of oysters in later generations, but with an embarrassed smile on her face, she couldn't continue.
"Well, it's very nutritious anyway, men can eat more of it." He whispered the last sentence inexplicably feeling guilty.
Maybe it was because of the previous incident with the durian core, but Yang Hongmei instantly had an "I understand" expression on her face, and whispered, "Are you going to pick them up tomorrow?"
It's free and has a lot of "nutritional value", so why not pick up some? Not to mention it's delicious.
Anyway, the land has been prepared and the seeds have been planted, and she doesn't have a lot to do. Hearing Yang Hongmei's invitation, Lin Xia nodded and agreed.
She could get more and dry them. Seafood is rich in nutrients and protein. When the postman comes, she can send some dried sea cucumbers to Grandma Lu and Mr. and Mrs. Lin.
The two of them agreed to go fishing tomorrow morning. Seeing that it was getting late, Yang Hongmei got up and went home.
Lin Xia has finished the work at hand and is just waiting for the seeds to sprout.
The family of three was lying on the bed. Lin Xia had just finished telling a story and coaxed the little one to sleep when she was hugged.
"Are you hiding something from me?" the man held her in a domineering manner and asked in her ear.
"Ah? No!" Lin Xia's hands were grabbed by one of his hands, and the other hand was in chaos. She couldn't struggle free, and she was afraid of waking up the little guy.
"Not honest?" Seeing that she didn't say anything, Lu Yuxiu used his ultimate move.
"Don't...I'll tell you, I'll tell you." Lin Xia was most ticklish on her waist, but she didn't dare to speak loudly, and she was panting.
Lu Yuxiu was so angry at her that he was really curious about what she said, but he endured it and listened to her.
"It's really no big deal." Lin Xia embarrassedly talked about the 'nutritional value' of oysters. Oysters not only have those well-known effects, but are also very good for the liver and can improve immunity.
"You exercise all year round, and your body needs more nutrients than ordinary people, so you can eat more." Lin Xia said that she was very serious about popularizing scientific knowledge!
Lu Yuxiu thought that she was hiding something about the training, and he never expected to hear this during the unintentional interrogation.
The fire in his body was about to burn, and he asked why he was so impulsive today.
Thinking of this, I am no longer interested in the other piece of news that I haven't heard. If I don't take action now, then wouldn't the oysters I ate be in vain?
