Chapter 24 Is the mouth made of gold? Will it wear out if used too much?
Unlike Su Ranran's careful and meticulous movements, Gao Fangxia washes the sweet potatoes very quickly.
As for whether it is done cleanly or not, that is another matter. You just want to ask whether it is fast or not?
Looking at the sweet potatoes she had washed and placed next to her, Su Ranran resisted the urge to wash them again.
"They have already gone to the brigade headquarters and are waiting. As for whether they can convince the brigade commander, we will know when Shen Yue comes back."
However, Gao Fangxia is very confident in her abilities.
She said that her son Shen Yue would definitely be able to meet the Chairman, so how could they not be anxious?
The women in the team gossip about other people's affairs every day. In the end, aren't they just comparing whose man is more capable or whose child is more obedient?
While listening, Su Ranran couldn't help but wash the sweet potato that still had some mud on it.
She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she was sure that the sweet potatoes in the basin were clean.
Gao Fangxia didn't take her actions seriously.
She is just like that. Although she likes to take advantage of small things, she is not the kind of person who likes to nitpick. She is a very generous person.
She scooped a bucket of water to rinse the sweet potatoes and then carried them back to the kitchen.
Today's lunch is boiled sweet potatoes.
Even though many people in later generations pursue eating coarse grains to lose weight, eating coarse grains these days is a very uncomfortable thing.
There is no oil or water all year round, and eating too many sweet potatoes can easily cause heartburn.
But there is no choice but to eat. The fine grains we get every year are only so much, and if we eat frugally, we can only barely make it until the next time the grain is replaced.
Well, the Shen family’s fine grains have run out, and they are counting on this season’s harvest to distribute the grain.
Thinking of the almost empty rice jar, Su Ranran felt mixed emotions.
Although we don’t know how they survived this disaster in their first life, we can already tell that it must have been very difficult.
After all, even if the higher-ups wanted to allocate food aid, they were powerless and could only ensure that everyone survived.
Su Ranran followed Gao Fangxia into the kitchen.
The kitchen was dark, especially the corner near the stove, which was full of traces of smoke.
Gao Fangxia drew some water from the water tank and washed it in the big pot.
When Su Ranran saw the big vat, she suddenly had an idea.
The concentration of one drop of water for a bucket of water is a bit high, so what about one drop of water for a large tank of water?
After all, a tank of water is equivalent to seven or eight buckets of water.
Thinking of their unconditional trust in her and their protective attitude towards her in the morning, Su Ranran decided to return the favor.
Finding an excuse to distract Gao Fangxia, she dropped a drop of spring water into the water tank.
Then he picked up the ladle and stirred the water in the tank.
As soon as Shen He returned home, he saw his wife bending over as if...stirring water?
"What do you want to do? I'll do it."
Because he scared her yesterday, Shen He spoke as softly and slowly as possible this time.
Su Ranran probably had this experience once before, so she didn't panic this time.
Seeing him coming back, her eyes lit up.
"Fangxia cooked sweet potatoes. I had nothing to do so I came to chat with her."
As she spoke, she put down the watering can and walked towards him.
Su Ranran is in a good mood now. If nothing unexpected happens, she should have solved the problem of harvesting rice early.
Seeing her frown, Shen He's depressed mood also improved.
That female comrade is so weird. I can't find any source of those materials.
There is not such a large amount of pork circulating in the entire county, including the black market.
And where did she get those snacks and facial creams that couldn’t possibly be made locally?
Could it be that their Shuiqiao Brigade really has hidden such a big spy?
This incident has alerted the city's security bureau, and the investigators are expected to arrive tomorrow.
Su Ranran also noticed the solemnity on his face, and suddenly couldn't help but feel some sympathy for her man.
After all, rebirth plus space is not something that can be explained by science.
But when she thought of the warehouse, she couldn't help but have a headache.
During the day, when Shen He was away, she entered the space and wanted to turn the warehouse back into jade, and drip blood on it to test her guess.
But the warehouse was not under her control and could not be shrunk at all.
In the end, Su Ranran had no choice but to give it a try and drip blood on the warehouse.
The result was naturally useless, and the warehouse was still out of her control.
"I'll cook, you take a rest."
As he spoke, Shen He picked up the ladle and poured half a ladle of water into the pot.
Su Ranran: …
She had clearly been resting.
Is this the sign of spoiling her into a useless person?
But it must be said that such pampering really makes people powerless to resist, and the irritability in Su Ranran's heart caused by the warehouse also disappeared completely.
Without further hesitation, she moved a small stool as usual and sat beside him to watch him make a fire.
While watching, I would occasionally find some topics to chat with him.
But the man said very little, it was basically her who did all the talking, and he replied with just a few words.
Before long, the topic was over!
Su Ranran widened her eyes in disbelief!
"Excuse me, is your mouth made of gold? Will it wear out if you use it too much?"
Su Ranran was so angry that she glared at him and said.
"It's made of meat, so it won't wear out." The man answered seriously.
Su Ranran: …
She was so amused that she couldn't help but start teasing him.
"Which hurts more, getting hit on the head with a watermelon or a pumpkin?"
"head."
Su Ranran:?!
"The hammer and the bowl can't break anything. Why?"
"The bowl is broken."
Su Ranran:? ! !
"How many eggs can a person eat on an empty stomach?"
"One."
Su Ranran: …
Unconvinced, she asked several more questions, and her angles became more and more tricky.
And he still answered it easily, as if nothing could stump him.
Not only that, they also pushed firewood into the stove hole in an orderly manner.
"I'm convinced." Su Ranran clasped her hands together to show that she was defeated.
Looking at her cute expression of being unwilling to accept defeat but having to admit defeat, Shen He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This smile was nothing, but Su Ranran was stunned on the spot.
She had never seen Shen He smile like this before.
At this moment, the magnetic low laughter reached her ears, and Su Ranran felt as if her whole body was electrocuted, tingling and numb.
Resisting the urge to cover her ears, she seemed to be able to hear her own heartbeat.
Again and again, as if it was going to jump out of my chest.
“That’s too foul.”
Su Ranran muttered softly, her face blushing.
Shen He didn't know whether he heard it or not, but the pair of eyes, still with a smile in them, looked at her.
That smile softened the strong contours of the man's face, and his deep eyes seemed to be able to make people indulge in them.
My heart beat faster and faster.
Su Ranran couldn't help but wonder if she continued jumping like this, something bad would happen.
"I...I'm going out to look for Fangxia."
In the end, whether she was shy or afraid of having her heart beat fast, she made up an excuse and ran away.
Behind her, the smile in the man's eyes deepened.
Su Ranran, who had just walked out of the kitchen, ran into Gao Fangxia head-on, who hadn't had time to retract her attention.
When their eyes met, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
"Um...I'm here to cook the sweet potatoes."
As Gao Fangxia spoke, her face still showed the embarrassment of being caught eavesdropping.
I didn't expect that these two people would be like this when they were together in private. They didn't say anything, but it made people blush and their heart beat fast.
"oh."
Su Ranran subconsciously made way for her, her originally fair face now red.
But Shen He was already lighting the fire in the kitchen, so how could Gao Fangxia be willing to go in?
One gave way, the other refused to go in, and the two of them were deadlocked at the door.
"What are you two doing standing at the kitchen door?" Pan Shuifang asked with a surprised look on her face.
But before they could answer, Shen Yue's excited voice came from the door.
"It's done! The captain agreed to harvest the rice tomorrow! Mom, just wait, your son will definitely be named a model worker. When I meet the Chairman, I will help you greet him!"
She looked so ambitious, as if she had already secured the title of model worker.
"Good, good, good. My son is ambitious. Well done." Pan Shuifang's face was also full of excitement.
Only Shen He was in a fog.
"What do you want to see the Chairman?"
"Brother, don't you know yet? My sister-in-law told me..."
Upon hearing this, Su Ranran felt her scalp tingling instantly. She didn't even dare to turn her head to see the expression on the man's face behind her.
