In the next few days, Tang Guifen went out early and came back late.
When asked, they either went to their old sister's house or went to the next village to exchange jobs with others.
Some families in the village are short of labor, and during the busy farming season they are afraid that they will not be able to handle the work at home, so they go to help other families first.
After finishing work for other people, I don't ask for any wages and just ask them to come and help for two days.
These things are not uncommon among fellow villagers and are understandable.
Su Man thought that her grandmother was so old and it would be too tiring for her to bear, so she talked to her and asked her not to go.
But she refused to listen, so I had to give up.
In order to make her grandmother's life easier, she felt embarrassed to ask her grandmother to cook for her every day.
I told grandma the night before that I didn’t have to cook the next morning.
She got up early, which was rare for her, before Lin Ye woke up yet.
I rushed into the kitchen and started working. Seeing that my grandmother had been doing a lot of work recently, I thought I could do it too.
But she overestimated her talent in this area and worked for half an hour.
The fire hadn't been lit yet, and the kitchen was full of smoke, which made her cough.
“Cough cough cough…”
"What's wrong?"
Lin Ye, who was in the house, heard the noise and pushed the door open in a wheelchair.
I was startled to see the kitchen full of smoke.
"Su Man, are you okay?"
"No, it's just this fire. It won't light."
Su Man covered her mouth with her hands, tears coming out from the smoke.
Lin Ye pushed his wheelchair forward and took the matches and hay from her.
"Go outside and get some fresh air. I'll come..."
Su Man didn't insist on making trouble, nodded and ran outside to get some fresh air.
Lin Ye opened the rear window and door to let the smoke disperse.
He glanced at the stove, took out some firewood, and stuffed some hay in it.
Sizzle
Light a match and ignite the hay, and the flame will rise up.
After the fire started, he washed his hands and went to the stove.
He was tall, and even in a wheelchair he was much taller than the stove.
"What do you want to eat?"
He asked Su Man outside his mouth.
Su Man looked out of the door embarrassedly.
"Will you do it? That would be so embarrassing."
"Just, egg noodles!"
"I want the eggs to be cooked on one side and undercooked on the other. Add some chopped green onions and sesame oil!"
My grandma has made me picky lately, and I can't eat anything with ordinary flavors.
Lin Ye was amused by her and said sorry, but he still mentioned all the conditions!
However, he didn't say much.
She skillfully took out eggs and noodles from the cupboard and started cooking.
The smoke in the kitchen dissipated and Su Man walked in with confidence.
Boil the noodles in boiling water in a pot, then scoop out the noodles and add some oil to fry an egg.
Fry until one side is cooked and remove from the pan.
Put the egg on the noodles, it looks golden like a little sun, and the yolk in the middle is still flowing.
Sprinkle a pinch of chopped green onion and add two drops of sesame oil.
That smell is so fragrant.
Looking at Lin Ye's skillful movements, Su Man couldn't help but sniff.
"I didn't expect you to be not only good-looking but also such a good cook! That's amazing."
Add ten points, add ten points.
Lin Ye, a grown man, felt his ears burn with delight at the praise and he handed the noodles to Su Man.
"Eat first, and tell me if you're not satisfied!"
Which country kid can't cook? The little girl praised him to bits.
Su Man sat under the eaves holding a bowl, looking at the scenery in the distance and taking a bite of egg noodles. The taste was so delicious.
After finishing her noodles, she was about to wash the dishes.
Lin Ye pushed her hand away and handed her two White Rabbit candies.
"Go play outside."
He rolled up his sleeves and went straight to wash the dishes.
Look at the muscular lines and strong arms under his sleeves.
Looking at the White Rabbit milk candy in her hand, Su Man was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
The man was a good man, but it was a pity that he didn't treat her as a woman.
All right! Just be a kid. There's no need to fight in this simple life.
She peeled off a candy wrapper, put it in her mouth, and went out for a walk.
When I arrived at the small river outside the village, I saw the village children catching fish in the ditch.
The water level rose a few days ago, but now it has dropped.
Some small fish and shrimps were trapped in the small puddles on the shore and couldn't get out. These were a delicious snack for the children in the village.
We can only eat meat at home during festivals and holidays, and cooking a pot of these fish and shrimps is enough for the whole family.
Su Man took a look from the side and saw that the fish was long and slender, as long as chopsticks.
Fry it in oil until it is crispy, add some chili powder, ginger and garlic, and it is delicious whether you eat it alone or with rice.
The children scooped up almost half a bucket. When the leading child saw that it was almost enough, he waved his hand to signal everyone to go home.
"Let's go back and divide the fish."
When I turned around, I saw Su Man following behind me.
The children were so frightened that they almost dropped the fish in their hands.
"Who are you?"
Su Man has been married to their village for almost a month, and she rarely hangs around in the village, so none of them know her.
Su Man smiled and pointed to Lin Ye's house in the distance.
"I'm his wife."
When the children heard that it was the gangster's daughter-in-law, their faces changed.
They all walked around Su Man and turned to run towards the village, shouting as they ran.
"A bastard's wife, a bastard's wife."
"Don't yell, Brother Lin Ye is not a scoundrel."
The leading child was so angry that he tried to chase after them with a bucket of water.
After running two steps, he seemed to have thought of something and turned around to hand the bucket to Su Man.
"Don't listen to their nonsense, Brother Lin Ye is fine!"
"My name is Tie Niu. Do you want to eat fish? Here you go."
Su Man looked at Tie Niu's honest appearance, smiled and waved her hand, handing him the candy in her hand.
