After Su Yue returned home, she poured the wild vegetables into a basin and soaked them in water.
She then went into the kitchen, thinking about lunch arrangements.
After looking around, she rolled up her sleeves and decided to knead some dough, fry some pancakes, and cook a pot of thick white rice porridge to serve with wild vegetables.
As the sun gradually rose higher, Wang Xiaohua looked at the sun, which was almost in the center of the sky, and realized that it was time to go back and prepare lunch.
She greeted Wu Guoliang and hurried home.
Fu Shen watched Wang Xiaohua's hurried figure as she walked along the ridge of the field, almost falling, but regaining her balance before continuing on her way.
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. "Yueyue can do it at home, so there's no need for you to rush, Second Sister-in-law."
Wu Guoliang looked at Fu Shen with a puzzled expression: "Why didn't you say anything just now?"
Fu Shen lowered his head and continued working: "Second sister-in-law is also tired, it would be good for her to go back and rest early."
Wu Guoliang: "..." This makes it sound like he doesn't care about his wife.
As Wang Xiaohua approached her doorstep, an enticing aroma wafted towards her.
She paused, a smile unconsciously creeping onto her lips; it must be Su Yue cooking.
She stepped across the threshold with a smile: "Yueyue, didn't I say I would come back to cook lunch?"
Seeing the fresh wild vegetables in the vegetable basin, she exclaimed and said with concern, "Why did you go looking for wild vegetables? The sun is so strong today, it's so hot."
Su Yue was making pancakes in front of the stove when she heard the voice. She turned around and smiled, "Second sister-in-law, you don't feel the sun when you're working in the fields. I'll just go for a while and I won't feel hot."
She was telling the truth. After drinking the water in the space for more than two months, the changes that occurred in her body were hard to describe in detail.
It will only be apparent when the moment arrives.
For example, when she is basking in the blazing sun, she can feel waves of coolness throughout her body.
Considering Wang Xiaohua's illness and the fact that it's just the two of them at home, it would be most appropriate to pour her some water. Unfortunately, he had already drunk all the water last night.
Wang Xiaohua didn't believe it, "How can it not be hot when the sun is shining?"
Her clothes were soaked as if she had been drenched in a downpour.
Normally, after finishing her work, she would go back to her room to change into dry clothes before cooking.
Today, because Su Yue was busy in the kitchen, she subconsciously came over to take a look first.
Su Yue noticed Wang Xiaohua's wet clothes and said with concern, "Second sister-in-law, why don't you go change your clothes first?"
Wang Xiaohua peeked into the pan and looked at the golden-brown pancakes in the pot, then nodded: "Okay."
After Wang Xiaohua left the kitchen, Su Yue flipped the last pancake over and fried it until both sides were golden brown before putting it in a bowl.
She added a ladle of water to the pot, walked to the small table, and gently stirred the white rice porridge soaking in the large wooden basin with a spoon.
As the rising steam gradually dissipated, Su Yue reached out and touched the water in the wooden basin; it was almost as hot as boiling water.
She quickly brought out the white rice porridge and replaced it with a basin of cold water.
While they were busy fetching water, Wang Xiaohua had already changed her clothes and rolled up her sleeves to wash the wild vegetables.
Su Yue quickly stopped her: "Second sister-in-law, I'll be done in a minute. I'll wash it. You go wash the clothes."
Wang Xiaohua smiled and waved her hand: "How can I let you do all the work by yourself? Washing wild vegetables is no trouble at all. I can wash the clothes after I finish washing them."
As he spoke, he squatted down, dipped his hands into the water, and began washing them quickly.
Su Yue smiled helplessly and arranged the white rice porridge that had been soaked in cold water again.
When Fu Shen and Wu Guoliang returned from work, Su Yue had already cooked the wild vegetables, and Wang Xiaohua had washed the clothes and hung them out to dry in the yard.
The two washed their faces with cold water and went into the room to change into dry clothes.
