"Why did the topic jump to me?" Xu Manman was also helpless, but looking at Chen Ming's serious and persistent eyes,
"Brother, don't worry. I really don't plan to find a partner at this stage. Isn't it enough for me to live my own life well?"
Chen Ming nodded in satisfaction, "Well, just listen to those things, but don't get close to them." Just by listening, he knew that those two families were troublesome people. If his cousin got close to them, it would be troublesome if she was accidentally injured.
"Other people's affairs have nothing to do with me. They have so many relatives that they can't take care of them, let alone me."
"Don't run around when I'm not around. Come back immediately after class. If you need anything, call Zhang Yuan and the others, or wait for me to come back." It's a pity that he can't protect her all the time.
"Okay, okay, I know." He was such a sunny and cheerful boy, why is he becoming more and more like a dad?
Chen Ming thought about it but was still worried, so he continued to emphasize, "But we should keep our distance from Zhang Yuan and the others. We won't look for a partner in the countryside."
"Okay, let's not both stay in the countryside looking for a partner. Let's go back to the city together when the time comes." Xu Manman nodded in agreement and pushed her nagging cousin out the door. "Go back and rest quickly. Zhang Yuan will be waiting for you until he falls asleep."
Following Xu Manman's strength, he walked out of the door and said, "Okay, you should also go to bed early. Remember to close the door."
Xu Manman closed the door, breathed a sigh of relief, and finally left. It is said that an eldest brother is like a father, and her eldest cousin worries as much as her father.
Xu Manman thought again that she had three cousins, one cousin, two cousins, and one brother.
If everyone kept saying the same thing as my cousin...
Xu Manman couldn't help but shiver. Fortunately, she only had one brother here, otherwise she really couldn't survive.
The next morning after breakfast, Chen Ming did not go out, but continued to stay in the house reading.
He didn't go out, and Xu Manman didn't go out either. Xu Manman, who only knew half of the gossip yesterday and wanted to know the follow-up, was scratching her head curiously in the house.
Chen Ming stared at the book. "The village should be very noisy these two days. Don't go out unless you have nothing to do."
Xu Manman suddenly felt like a frost-bitten eggplant, lying listlessly on the table on the kang, unable to read a single page for a long time.
Unable to concentrate on studying, Xu Manman sat up and started to prepare food.
Chen Ming took his eyes off the book and watched her movements.
It's good to find something to do. As long as she doesn't go out, she can do whatever she wants in the house.
Xu Manman took out the kelp and sweet potato starch and soaked them in water.
She took out some of the bean sprouts that had been sprouted before. Bean sprouts are really a rare vegetable in winter. Now other people in the educated youth camp have learned from her and soaked mung beans in the house to sprout them.
Xu Manman has already released several batches, and basically one wave can be collected every week or so.
Remove the roots of the bean sprouts, wash them and set aside.
Heat up the pan again and start frying peanuts.
It felt a little bit less, so I took out some flour and kneaded the dough.
After working for two or three hours, one person finally made cold bean sprout and kelp shreds, hot and sour sweet potato noodles, and egg vermicelli pancakes.
It would be even better if there were leeks, but she actually wanted to eat leek boxes more.
The cold-mixed bean sprouts and kelp shreds were crispy and tender, and paired with the spicy and sour sweet potato noodles, the two of them were sweating after eating it.
It was also the first time for Chen Ming to eat something so spicy. It was so spicy that he gasped. However, the sweet potato noodles with extra vinegar were so sour and refreshing that he couldn't stop eating.
Finally, Chen Ming also developed a new way of eating it. He soaked the relatively light-flavored pancake in the sour and spicy soup. The outer skin absorbed the soup, adding a different flavor to the pancake itself.
After dinner, Xu Manman took out the frozen pears that had been thawed long ago. The icy, sweet and juicy frozen pears were the perfect way to relieve greasiness.
Xu Manman, who was very satisfied with the meal, had long put all the bad things behind her.
Often when people don't care too much about something, it will come to them on its own.
Look, Liu Hua came to deliver the melons.
At this time, Chen Ming had already set out to return to the village, and Xu Manman was resting alone in the house.
"Manman, Manman!" Liu Hua knocked on the door.
Xu Manman got up from the kang, smoothed her messy hair, opened the door, and stepped aside to let Liu Hua in.
"Liu Hua, what's wrong? I just fell asleep."
"Ah? How could you sleep when such a big thing happened today?" Liu Hua couldn't believe it.
"What happened? I didn't go out today." Xu Manman was a little curious and guessed it was related to what happened yesterday.
