While the sugar water in the pot was still boiling, Xie Yunjiao went to prepare ginger and chopped red dates.
Doudou and Lian Jin saw that Xie Yunjiao and Gu Huai were busy, so they came over to help.
With everyone's help, Xie Yunjiao can find time to cook sweet soup, otherwise she is really worried that she will be too busy.
After a while, the sugar water boiled and emitted a truly tempting sweet aroma.
Doudou and Lian Jin were both children, and they were so tempted by the sweet smell that they couldn't help swallowing their saliva frantically.
Xie Yunjiao called two little helpers and scooped a bowl of sugarcane juice for each of them.
The two of them sat on the threshold of the kitchen, holding the sweet soup with satisfaction, drinking and laughing, and they were so happy.
Xie Yunjiao noticed that Gu Huai's eyes always fell on her intentionally or unintentionally. She thought he wanted to drink too, so she scooped a bowl for him as well.
Gu Huai didn't like sweets very much, so he refused.
"I saw you looking at me all the time, and I thought you wanted to drink too." Xie Yunjiao said with a smile.
Well, she misunderstood.
She herself feels a little embarrassed?
"Then why do you keep looking at me?"
"I was wondering why my wife is so powerful and knows so much." Gu Huai was sincere. He never thought she could be so powerful.
I feel like I've married a gem. Why is she so amazing? Does she know everything?
He originally agreed to remarry just to find someone to take care of Doudou, but he didn't expect that he would gradually fall in love with Xie Yunjiao.
"Who am I? I'm Xie Yunjiao." Xie Yunjiao said calmly.
Gu Huai nodded lovingly: "That's right."
Oh no! Xie Yunjiao's heart started beating faster when she saw the doting smile on Gu Huai's face.
"Oops, the sugar is burning."
Xie Yunjiao hurriedly started stir-frying with a spatula.
It's true, someone as steady as her would actually look at a man and make her face blush and her heart beat faster.
It’s really the male beauty that leads to mistakes!
Although she was a little flustered, Xie Yunjiao finally managed to make the brown sugar.
She made three flavors: one with brown sugar and minced ginger, another with chopped red dates, and another with nothing added.
Hard as a rock, loose as sand. This is the characteristic of brown sugar. After solidification, it looks very hard, but after breaking it hard, it will be like sand and melt quickly.
"You all must be hungry. I'll cook you something delicious with brown sugar."
Since they have to stay up tonight to celebrate the New Year, every household will wait until after midnight before going to bed.
Xie Yunjiao was afraid that everyone would be bored, so she thought of making brown sugar to kill time. By the time she was done, it was almost time.
She used freshly made brown sugar to cook egg, longan and brown sugar water for everyone.
They drank some warm sweet soup together and then went back to the house to rest.
The next morning, Doudou and Lianjin got up early and had a great time playing in the yard.
When Xie Yunjiao came over, she saw two children playing with a broken chamber pot that they had found from somewhere.
This game of throwing pots is not a game that ordinary people would play. It is a game that rich young men and women in wealthy families would play when they are bored in their wealthy families’ mansions.
Xie Yunjiao stared at Lian Jin without blinking. After a day's rest, the child looked much better and there was an indescribable nobility in his every move.
If Doudou went out with him, people who didn't know would think he was the master.
A child from a rural background would definitely not be able to develop the same temperament as Lian Jin in a short period of time.
As if noticing Xie Yunjiao's gaze, Lian Jin smiled and turned to look at Xie Yunjiao: "Madam, good morning."
Xie Yunjiao nodded: "Good morning."
She could see that the light in Lian Jin's eyes was pure and without malice.
She knew that Lian Jin would leave here one day, so she let Doudou be happy with him during this time.
"How do you play it? Why don't you teach me?"
Lian Jin briefly explained the rules to Xie Yunjiao. Xie Yunjiao understood and grabbed the "arrow" made of branches by Lian Jin and Doudou, aimed at the mouth of the chamber pot and threw it.
Xie Yunjiao threw it casually, and it hit the target! Her force was so strong that it even knocked out all the "arrows" that Doudou and Lian Jin had already thrown in.
Gu Huai saw this scene as soon as he came out of the house. It was the first time he knew that Xie Yunjiao had such a sharp vision.
Xie Yunjiao thought that maybe she was extremely lucky, which was why she was able to shoot so accurately.
She felt a little secretly happy and threw a few more arrows. As expected, all of them went in.
If shooting one arrow is considered luck, then hitting ten out of ten can also be considered luck!
The two little guys stood aside with their mouths wide open, forgetting to close them.
Lian Jin thought he was already very powerful, but he didn't expect Xie Yunjiao to be even more powerful.
But she clearly had no martial arts training and didn't have any internal energy at all. How did she do it?
"My wife, this is the first time I know that your vision is so accurate." Gu Huai couldn't help but praise her.
Xie Yunjiao suppressed her surprise and replied proudly, "That's who I am."
"Xie Yunjiao!" Doudou and Lian Jin said in unison, and couldn't help laughing after they finished speaking.
Xie Yunjiao was also amused by the two children and laughed out loud. These two children were really something and stole all her lines.
"You guys continue, I'll make breakfast for you."
"My wife, just make something simple. You just ate late at night and you're not hungry now." Gu Huai said.
The two children nodded, which was rare. They had eaten sugar water last night, which was so sweet that they ate a lot and still felt full now.
"Okay, I'll roast some sweet potatoes."
Xie Yunjiao suddenly had an idea and said, "How about we kill a chicken and marinate it, then skip breakfast and have lunch early, okay?"
You can eat roasted sweet potatoes and roasted chicken, who wouldn’t like them?
"Then you have to help. Go pick up some yellow mud to make a mud kiln. I will kill the chicken." Xie Yunjiao said.
Everyone worked together in an orderly manner and soon they were able to eat the delicious roasted sweet potatoes and roasted chicken. The aroma drifted to the nearby area with the wind, making everyone nearby drool.
Especially for Old Man Gu's family, the rare meat was cooked for several days and became dry and tough, and it lost its fragrance in an instant.
"You know what a fool the second brother is. He eats such delicious food but doesn't even bring some to honor his parents. Is this appropriate during the New Year?" Gu Ping said angrily.
In fact, he was drooling, and so were the others, all drooling at the aroma!
"How about we go over and get some?" Liu Miaohua asked while moving her feet. As long as the two elders agreed, she would go immediately!
"Forget it. They don't have that intention. What's the point of us going there shamelessly?" Old Man Gu snorted coldly.
In fact, his saliva was so much that it almost broke his toes, but he just couldn't bring himself to do it.
