Chapter 323: You guys are probably here because of the smell, right? The chestnuts and walnuts I roasted are just ripe.
He turned around and said, "The snow is too thick today and the buses are probably out of service. Don't go to the factory. There are chestnuts, peanuts, and walnuts in the cabinet. I'll make lunch when I get back."
Wenjiu had no objection to his arrangement, as she had not originally planned to go to the factory.
Everything that needs to be taught has been taught.
All the things that need to be watched have been watched.
There won't be any problems with Director Zhao here.
After Lu Beiye gave Wenjiu instructions, he left. Wenjiu took a nice bath with mugwort water and then crawled into the quilt to fall asleep. When she woke up again, it was already after ten o'clock.
Feeling that the gas coming from the stove in the house was a bit stuffy, she opened the door to let the smell out.
Unexpectedly, I saw a row of snowmen placed on the corridor opposite the door. The only one who could put snowmen here was Lu Beiye. Fortunately, the sun was not strong today and the snowmen had not melted completely.
I felt very surprised when I warmed the wine. I couldn't let it go and touched it. I was afraid that if I held it for too long, the snowman would melt, so I quickly put it back. I also scooped up some unmelted snow and scattered it around the snowman to extend its life.
The children downstairs were having snowball fights, making strange-looking snowmen everywhere. Their childish voices were so noisy and lively.
Olaf spotted Wenjiu outside and looked up happily to greet her.
"Beautiful auntie~"
"Didn't you go to earn money today?"
Wen Jiu poked his head out and said with a smile: "No! The snow is too thick to go!"
"Do you want to come to Auntie's house to play?"
"Yes, yes!"
Xuebao happily agreed, and soon she came with Zhao Qi and Zhao Xuan from Yuan Fang's family, and Haohao from Zhao Chunni's family.
I touched their little faces with the warm wine one by one, and they were all frozen cold.
"Walk!"
"Let's go home and warm ourselves by the fire."
Several young guys sat in a row. I warmed up the wine and took out chestnuts, peanuts and walnuts from the cupboard, preparing to roast them for them to eat.
Zhao Qi obediently reminded, "Auntie, chestnuts need to be opened before roasting. Last time, my mother roasted chestnuts without opening them and they exploded."
"OK."
"Thank you, Qiqi."
Wenjiu touched Zhao Qi's head, turned back to the room, got a pair of scissors and cut the chestnuts. He cut a hole in each chestnut before roasting them on the wire mesh placed on top of his pants, and also gave them some cat ears to eat.
Olaf was so happy that his eyes were narrowed, and he ate the cat ears while shaking his head and kicking his legs, not forgetting to drink the sweet-talking warm wine.
"My beautiful auntie, you are so nice!"
"Olaf loves you the most."
Wenjiu was so happy that she was overjoyed. She just loved the sweet talk.
Haohao was not to be outdone, he slid down from the chair and hugged the arm of the wine-warmer, "Pretty auntie, Haohao likes you too. He especially likes the ball you bought for him, he holds it every night before he goes to sleep!"
"So do you like your aunt, or do you like the ball she bought?"
Wen Jiu deliberately teased Hao Hao.
Haohao was so embarrassed that he paused for a long time before he stammered, "I like you, auntie."
Auntie = ball.
"That's more like it!"
I warmed the wine and pinched his little hands, which felt as cold as ice cubes. I thought the others must be the same, as they had just played in the snow, so I poured some hot water over them.
He shouted, "Come on, wash your hands. If you don't wash your hands, you won't get any of the delicious food later!"
After hearing what Wenjiu said, the kids all rushed to wash their hands, and after washing them clean they wanted to show them to Wenjiu.
"My pretty auntie, I'm done washing."
"I'm done too."
"I wash it the cleanest."
"I wash it the cleanest."
Wen Jiu was afraid that they would start fighting, so he quickly said, "Wash them all very clean, warm your hands and we're ready to eat peanuts!"
Lu Beiye knew that Wenjiu loved snacks, so when he went to the village to buy eggs, he asked the villagers and bought some things that could be roasted so that Wenjiu could roast them while warming himself by the fire to relieve his boredom.
Roasted peanuts are very fragrant.
Although the outer shell is a bit black, it does not affect the taste of the inside at all. The dry skin on the surface of the peanuts will fall off if you rub it. Peel off a few peanuts and put them all in your mouth and chew them slowly. They are especially fragrant.
Chestnuts and walnuts are not so easy to cook and need to be roasted for a while longer.
After the kids finished eating the cat ears, they waited anxiously for the chestnuts to ripen. Chestnuts have a light sweet taste, and they prefer chestnuts to peanuts and walnuts.
Olaf looked at the chestnut eagerly and asked, "Pretty auntie, are the chestnuts not ripe yet?"
"Olaf wants to eat."
Haohao nodded, "Haohao wants to too."
Zhao Qi and Zhao Xuan were older than them and calmer, but they also stared eagerly.
Wen Jiu smiled and said, "Not yet! Auntie is getting you some cat ears to eat?"
"Yeah yeah yeah!"
Olaf clapped his hands.
Wenjiu went to get some cat ears.
Cat ears are made of flour and they got the name because they look like cat ears.
Lin Xiulian and Yuan Fang looked around for the children and found that they were all here to warm the wine, and they all had their mouths full of food crumbs, which was a bit funny.
"You guys are really good at finding a place. Come and greet your wine-warming aunt again."
Wen Jiu saw them coming and joked, "You must have come here because of the smell. My roasted chestnuts and walnuts are just ripe."
"Come in and sit down and have a taste."
Yuan Fang said with a smile: "I haven't heard that walnuts can be roasted and eaten! Every time I come back to your place, there are always fresh things. I don't want to go home anymore and I want to stay here."
Lin Xiulian said angrily, "How can you be so shameless even though you are already a mother?"
"Would you like to stay here and try?"
"Captain Lu is unwilling to give up and kill you!"
Yuan Fang curled her lips and said, "Then I dare not." She sat next to Zhao Qi and Zhao Xuan and slapped them twice.
"You don't know how to sit properly!"
"Did I teach you two to sit like this?"
His legs were crossed on the chair.
Zhao Qi and Zhao Xuan put their legs down and sat upright with a look of grievance.
While warming the wine, he used tongs to place the roasted chestnuts and walnuts on a plate on the rack to dry. He also put some raw ones on the wire mesh, and only gave them to them when they were almost dry.
Ripe walnuts are crispy and fragrant, without the bitter taste of raw walnut skins.
Yuan Fang said in surprise: "It's delicious. We are all human, why do you have so many thoughts?"
Lin Xiulian retorted, "Your wooden brain can be compared with hers?"
"We can't catch up even if we ride our horses hard."
Wenjiu was so amused that he laughed out loud, "How can I be as great as you say?" He was just taking advantage of others.
"You guys eat while I go get some water."
These all tasted a bit dry. When she was drinking water, she couldn't help but sigh that there were snacks and other things at home, and it would be really delicious if she had a cup of milk tea.
But drinking honey water is also good!
Be content with what you have!
They ate and chatted, talking about the latest news in the hospital. After all, their circle was so small that they couldn't interact with other people.
With the children's childish chatter, the house was filled with constant laughter.
When Olaf was leaving, he took a fancy to the snowman that Lu Beiye had made for Wenjiu outside, and he pulled Wenjiu's trouser legs and acted coquettishly.
"Beautiful auntie~"
"Can you give me your snowman? Your snowman is so beautiful!"
Warm wine is particularly tangled.
Give it to me!
She couldn't bear to do that.
Don’t give it to me!
Afraid of Olaf crying.
