182 Mother, when are you going to the island?

The reason why farmhouse cuisine is still so popular in the 21st century is that the ingredients are picked from the fields and burned with firewood. Sometimes it takes less than an hour for the ingredients to enter the stomach. This level of freshness and natural flavor is irreplaceable by other cuisines.

The three children ate until their bellies were full and walked in the yard to digest the food.

Especially Mumu, it was the first time he had eaten such delicious food since he was a child. When he was fighting with Fu Yuanhang for the pot, he wanted to swallow the pot.

Mumu touched her belly and asked Fu Yuanhang: "Sister Taozi's cooking is the most delicious in the world. Is there anything more delicious than sour bamboo shoots and snails in this village?"

Fu Yuanhang thought for a while and said: "Frogs are also delicious."

Mumu: "Frogs? Frogs?" Mumu pointed outside the yard, "Is it called this now?"

Fu Yuanhang said uncertainly: "I don't know if frogs are frogs, but this is what we call it now."

Mumu immediately perked up: " What are you waiting for? Go catch one and let Sister Taozi cook it for us!"

Fu Yuanhang said, "It's not easy to catch a frog. I've never caught one before."

Mumu said, "Then how did you eat one before?"

Fu Yuanhang said, "I exchanged it with someone."

Mumu touched the few precious banknotes in his pocket that he wanted to buy a gift for his godmother, patted his chest and said, "I'm agile. I can catch it!"

Chenchen was squatting beside the chicken coop, watching the little hen dozing off.

Hearing that they were going to catch frogs, Dongdongdong ran over: "I want to go too~~"

Su Taotao picked him up and pinched his little face: "It's too dark in the field, you can't go. If Ah Hang and Mumu want to go, just take a flashlight and a fishing net.

When you see a frog, shine the flashlight into its eyes and it will stop moving. Then you can catch it with the fishing net."

"Wow!" Mumu found it more and more interesting the more he listened. "Is it so easy?"

Su Taotao said again, "I dare not go. There may be snakes and rats in the fields. When you walk on the ridges, you must pay attention to your feet and be careful not to get bitten."

Fu Yuanhang grew up in the village, so he was naturally not afraid of these things. Mumu felt a little scalp tingling when he heard this, but thinking of Su Taotao's craftsmanship, he plucked up the courage to say, "I'm not afraid!"

Zhou Linglan took out two pairs of thick foot covers made of torn pants that were patched up with several layers of sewed together:

"There are not only snakes, insects, rats and ants in the fields, but also blood-sucking leeches. Wear this before you go to the fields, and you won't be afraid of being bitten."

Su Taotao felt a tingling sensation when she heard this. These were the things she feared the most.

Mumu put on the foot covers with a smile on her face: "Thank you, godmother, you are so kind!"

Zhou Linglan is very clever and deft. She made the foot covers into the shape of waders with three layers inside and three layers outside with seams. Although they look a bit big, they are very thick and it is estimated that even dogs cannot bite into them, so there is no need to be afraid of snakes, insects, rats or ants.

Chenchen bit his fleshy hand: "Mom, I want to go too~~"

Su Taotao touched the child's head: "You can go during the day, but at night, you may have to wait until Chenchen's feet grow long enough to wear the leg covers made by grandma."

Chenchen blinked: "Then grandma, make them smaller~ so Chenchen can wear them~~"

This clever little ghost, Su Taotao pinched his face: "No, there is a lot of work to do at home, and mom needs Chenchen's help. Can you stay and help mom?"

"Since mom needs Chenchen~~that's fine~~" Although Chenchen was still a little disappointed, he still felt a sense of accomplishment when he thought about helping his mother.

Mumu put on leggings and walked, looking particularly funny: "Chenchen, it's okay, Uncle Mumu and little uncle will definitely catch a big frog for you!"

Chenchen shook his head: "I don't want a big frog~~ I just want to go and take a look~~"

Mumu spread his hands: "Then you can only go when you grow up to be as big as Uncle Mumu."

"Ah~~" Life is not easy, Chenchen sighed.

Zhou Linglan came out with a cage and a fishing net and said, "I'll go with you. We won't go to the river. We can just look for it along the roadside."

Fu Yuanhang said, "Mom, you don't have to go. I'll take Mumu with me."

Zhou Linglan said, "I haven't touched a frog for many years. I'll go with you."

Su Taotao knew that Zhou Linglan was worried about them and didn't want to spoil the fun of the children, so she gave her a flashlight and said, "Be careful. It doesn't matter if you can't find it. We can go with them." It's okay for others to change."

Zhou Linglan said: "You and Chenchen clean up the room. I clean it regularly. The quilt was dried two days ago, so we still need to clean it up."

Su Taotao nodded: "Go ahead, Chenchen and I promise to complete the task."

Chenchen originally wanted to fight for it, but when he heard his mother say that, he also raised his hand and said: "I promise to complete the task~~"

Fu Yuanhang hasn't walked in the fields in the countryside like this for a long time, especially at night.

Listening to the frogs and insects, looking up is a sea of ​​stars, the evening breeze blows gently, bringing bursts of rice flower fragrance, and there are flickering fireflies not far away. This is the night in the countryside.

"Can Ahhang adapt to life there?" Zhou Linglan asked.

In fact, she knew that she was asking unnecessary questions. Looking at her little son who seemed to have been reborn, she knew that he was living well there.

Fu Yuanhang kicked the pebbles and nodded: "Everything is fine."

Fu Yuanhang is not a person who shows his emotions, nor is he good at chatting. His extreme longing for Zhou Linglan was completely released the moment he walked in and hugged her.

At that moment, he returned to his usual reserved self.

Fu Yuanhang's reserved character was more or less inherited from Zhou Linglan.

Zhou Linglan was not a person who was good at communication either, and fell into silence for a while.

Mumu originally didn't intend to interrupt, but in the end, everyone just said a few words, and no one spoke, which made Mumu anxious.

He had no choice but to speak up for him: "Mother, Ah Hang and I live happily on the island. Every day, we go to class and study, play ball after class, and occasionally go to the sea to pick conchs.

Ah Hang is much happier than me. My mother's cooking is not good, but Sister Taozi's cooking is especially delicious. Do you think Ah Hang has gained a lot of weight?"

Zhou Linglan listened carefully and said with a smile: "Taotao's cooking is very delicious. Ah Hang has gained some weight and grown a little taller."

Mumu continued: "Ah Hang draws very well. He goes to the city to learn painting from Mr. Tang on weekends. By the way, Sister Taozi is now the factory director, did you know?"

Zhou Linglan was stunned for a moment, looked at Fu Yuanhang, and shook her head: "I don't know."

Fu Yuanhang said: "I wrote you a letter, but it may not have arrived yet."

These days, letters and transportation are very slow.

Fu Yuanhang wrote a letter to Zhou Linglan a few days before leaving, but it has not arrived yet.

At that time, he didn't know that he could go to the capital and come back.

Mumu said again: "Sister-in-law Taozi is very good. My mother often praises her. By the way, Ah Hang and I also go to the factory to help split coconuts and earn money by working part-time. Sister-in-law Taozi also said that after finishing our homework on weekends, we can all go to work part-time to earn money." Mumu

was very happy. In the future, he could earn money by himself, so he didn't need Zhong Nutu's pocket money anymore.

Zhou Linglan was very pleased to hear this: "That's great, Taotao has always been very capable."

She didn't expect Su Taotao to become the factory manager so quickly.

Although she didn't know how she got the job, she knew it must have been very hard.

"She has a hard time, right? She has to take care of Chenchen again."

Fu Yuanhang said: "Sister-in-law has a hard time, but Chenchen now goes to the red-raising class during the day, and we can pick her up at night."

Zhou Linglan looked surprised: "Chenchen goes to school at such a young age?"

Fu Yuanhang nodded: "Yes, Chenchen is very smart."

Mumu thought of something and suddenly asked: "Godmother, when are you going to the island too?"

Mumu often heard Zhong Nutu say at home, "The land in front of Su Taotao's door will be returned to her when her mother-in-law comes to plant it."

Isn't the godmother Taozi's mother-in-law?

Hearing Mumu ask this, Fu Yuanhang also turned his head to look at Zhou Linglan.
