"So that's how it is."
Hu Chunxing didn't ask any more questions. Seeing that Feng Yun had bought a lot of mint, she hurried to help carry it.
Mint is not heavy, but it takes up space. Feng Yun didn't take it all on himself. When he passed by the flower and bird market, he bought two pots of aloe vera.
"Is this also used as a motion sickness patch?"
"Well, it's used to reduce skin irritation and increase stickiness."
Two pots of aloe vera were placed in a net bag, which Feng Yun carried in her hands, and the mother and daughter began to head home.
Chun Xing was not interested in medical matters, but instead asked about Zhou Xiong.
"Mom, how did my eldest sister meet Zhou Xiong? From the look of my eldest sister, it's clear that she has been in love with Zhou Xiong for a long time. I remember Zhou Xiong joined the army a long time ago, didn't he?"
Feng Yun did not mention that Chunhua had been targeted by gangsters before, but only said that Zhou Xiong had saved her.
The two had no previous interactions, and it was only after Zhou Xiong came back this time that the two of them resolved their misunderstandings after several twists and turns and got together.
Because of their previous rescue, the two easily fell in love with each other.
Hu Chunxing nodded repeatedly. "My eldest sister has a soft personality. I don't think Zhou Xiong is much better than my eldest sister. I can't really put my finger on it."
Chun Xing is not very optimistic about this couple.
But now that things have come to this, I can't just object.
Besides, the people in the Zhou family are really nice. No one is perfect. As long as the two of them like each other and want to live a good life, that's enough.
Is it possible to find a unique and good man?
Even that unique good man may not be interested in you.
In the final analysis, it is your own excellence that will attract an excellent partner to you. Otherwise, if you are not worthy of someone and still long for someone better, that is called having unrealistic expectations.
"Mom, you should talk more about Big Sister. Big Sister's soft personality makes me anxious sometimes."
"That's not just what I want to say, we all have to say it."
The mother and daughter smiled at each other and went home together.
There was indeed hot food in the pot, and Feng Yun brought them out one by one.
One leek and egg, one cold cucumber, one tomato and egg soup, one shredded pork with green pepper, one pork belly with soy sauce, and one mapo tofu.
Several side dishes are placed on one plate, and meat dishes are placed on another plate.
The food was served and the mother and daughter ate it happily.
Feng Yun stuffed most of the pork belly into Hu Chunxing's bowl.
"You've been stressed out these past few days, having trouble eating and sleeping. I've taken note. Now that the exams are finally over, we're just waiting for the results. We can't change the results, so you can finally relax and catch up."
Hu Chunxing took two more pieces and gave them to Feng Yun.
"Mom, I can't eat that much either. Everyone in the family is exhausted, and I'm the only one who hasn't done anything. To be honest, I feel like I'm dreaming if I can eat white rice every day, let alone meat every meal."
Feng Yun nodded and stopped pushing it back and forth.
I ate with big mouthfuls and felt very satisfied.
After dinner, Hu Chunxing went to wash the dishes, and Feng Yun started to make mint juice.
Place the mint leaves in a large clay pot and pound them continuously with a pestle.
The weather is hot and I feel too hot if I exert any effort.
After Chun Xing washed the dishes, she saw that Feng Yun's face was covered in sweat, so she brought a chair over and sat next to Feng Yun, fanning him with a large palm-leaf fan.
The cool breeze blew on his body, and Feng Yun finally felt a little more comfortable.
"Don't you read books?" Feng Yun wiped the sweat off his forehead and turned to ask Chun Xing.
"It's okay, I can still read."
As he said this, he went into the room and took out an old book, and read it while fanning himself.
"Won't this disturb your reading?"
The sound of pounding medicine was quite loud, and for Feng Yun, it would definitely affect her reading.
"It's okay, I'm concentrating on reading."
Feng Yun felt relieved and continued to work with a smile. After a while, she realized how focused Chun Xing was.
At first she kept fanning her, but after a while, the fan stopped. Hu Chunxing seemed to be living in her own world, completely unaware of the outside world. She couldn't even hear her when she asked her to go back and read.
Feng Yun was too lazy to call her and just let her read like this.
An hour later, a large bag of dried mint was finally crushed.
Feng Yun took a deep breath, drank some cooled water, and missed the air conditioning of later generations very much.
Unfortunately, she is not a scientific researcher, so she cannot use her foresight to make these things in advance.
After taking a breath, she began to squeeze out all the gelatin from the aloe vera and put it in a bowl.
Finally, mix the crushed and filtered mint powder together to form a gel.
It took half an hour to finish this.
Thinking that Hu Guangcai and the others would be back soon, Feng Yun went to the kitchen to wash the mung beans, made a pot of mung bean soup, stewed the mung beans until they were mushy, and finally put them in a ceramic pot and soaked them in cold water.
If there is ice, it would be best to add some ice cubes, then the taste is really good.
As soon as these gates were run in, they were opened.
Qi Qiumin was walking in front, and Hu Guangcong was pushing a bicycle that was full of people going out to do business. Hu Guangcai was supporting him from the side.
"Are you back? Hurry up, there's hot water in the pot. Go take a hot bath first. I've made some mung bean soup and put it in the water tank to cool it down. You can have some after you take a bath to cool down."
When he heard that there was food, the wilted Hu Guangcai suddenly became lively again.
As soon as the bike stopped, it let go and rushed to the kitchen.
"Why are you waiting to finish washing before eating? I want to eat now, but I'm so tired."
After rushing into the kitchen, he poured a large bowl of mung bean soup.
The soup flowed down the clay pot and landed on the stove.
He didn't react much when he saw it. He picked up the bowl and drank it down in a few gulps.
After licking his lips, he poured another bowl and drank it all.
Qi Qiu Ming was also greedy, so he followed Hu Guangcai in. Who would have thought that just a moment later, half of the contents of the pottery jar were gone.
Looking at the mung bean soup being wasted on the stove, Qi Qiu Ming picked up the spatula and hit him on the back.
"You little bastard, you can't even chew the bark of a tree in 1960 and you're wasting food on me! Be careful or you'll end up marrying a wife with pockmarks all over her face!"
After eating and drinking his fill, Hu Guangcai jumped up to avoid Qi Qiumin's spatula attack and ran quickly to the yard.
Hu Chunxing was awakened at this point, and she looked at the group of people in the yard with a confused look on her face.
"When did you come back?"
Hu Guangcong walked over a few steps, his face full of disbelief.
"Third sister, we've been here for so long, and you just discovered it?"
Hu Chunxing blinked and said, "I just realized it."
Hu Guangcong gave her a thumbs-up. "You're amazing! You're so focused! No wonder you're so good at studying. Oh, by the way, I haven't had time to ask you yet. How did you do on the exam? Did you get that certificate?"
Hu Chunxing closed the book and stood up. "I did well on the test. I only had trouble with the last big question, but at least I managed to apply a few formulas. I didn't think the other questions were too difficult."
