Chapter 414 Great Tonic



When Su Qingxue came out of the bathroom, the chicken was already stewing.

Taking advantage of the fact that it wasn't time for dinner soon, Su Qingxue turned on the street light, filled a basket with chestnuts, and came under the eaves of the living room, preparing to slowly peel them.

It can also be used to kill time. If I can't peel it all, I can just use my mental power to do it in space.

In the whole house, apart from Su Qingxue and Zhou Huaian, the only living creatures were the four hens. When the two of them were squatting there peeling chestnuts, they suddenly felt that the whole yard was extremely quiet.

At the beginning, there were only herself and Zhou Huaian at home, and Su Qingxue was a little uncomfortable with it, but after such a long time, she had already adapted to it.

Maybe Zhou Huaian was afraid that she would feel lost, so he would always coax her gently whenever he was at home.

In fact, Su Qingxue didn't need anyone to coax her at all. She could coax herself into submission very quickly.

I live my life too carefreely. Apart from collecting grass for pigs, I spend the rest of my time wandering around the mountains, looking for things I need. I think this kind of life is pretty good.

Just like now, even though I am still peeling chestnuts in my hands, I have already made up my mind that I am going to go to the mountains to dig up the yam from the field tomorrow.

After digging the fish up, I went to a reservoir deep in the mountains. I hadn't been there to fish with a net for a long time. It was a good opportunity to catch more fish to make cured fish before it snowed.

I also wanted to go to the river and enjoy the leisure of fishing, but suddenly I felt that I was so busy that I had no time to be sentimental.

"We can't finish eating all these mountain products, so we plan to send some back to Beijing for my parents and children. If we mail them individually, the shipping fee will be much higher. Is there any way to find someone to ship them back directly?"

If someone helps with the shipment, I can directly mail several hundred kilograms back.

Zhou Huaian thought about it and actually found such a person. "Yes, an uncle from the neighbor's house seems to work in the Railway Bureau. It should be no problem to ask him for help. When I am on vacation in a few days, I will go to the town and call him."

Su Qingxue thought that Zhou Huaian still had seven or eight days before his vacation, so there was still time. By the time he was on vacation, she would definitely get these things sorted out.

I have already made up my mind that it will be enough to keep 20 to 30 kilograms of each at home. I will keep the remaining half fresh and fry the other half. I will mail both back when the time comes.

If you like fried nuts, you can eat the ones you have fried yourself first. If you don’t like fried nuts and want to make soup or something, just use the fresh ones.

However, although it is fresh, it still needs to be taken out and dried in the sun so that it can be preserved longer.

"Yes, I understand."

I finished the whole basket in less than half an hour, and I had peeled about thirty pounds of chestnuts. I just smelled the scent of chicken soup and knew it was definitely not cooked yet.

Suddenly I remembered that the three ginseng beards were still in the space, so I took one out, cleaned it, cut it into small pieces, and threw it into the chicken soup.

I should have thrown it in when it first started stewing, but I forgot just now. Fortunately, I remember it now.

After peeling one basket, I simply went to get another basket and continued peeling.

The two of them chatted while peeling chestnuts. For them, it was quite nice to be alone.

As the smell of chicken soup became stronger and stronger, Su Qingxue's stomach began to growl. She had just casually filled her stomach at noon, and now she couldn't help feeling hungry when she smelled the soup.

It was a bit embarrassing at first, but when Zhou Huaian’s stomach started growling, his face instantly grew thicker and he didn’t feel embarrassed at all.

Because there is someone to share the embarrassment with me, I don’t feel embarrassed anymore.

Zhou Huaian coughed lightly and pretended that it was not him who had his stomach growling just now. It was obvious at first glance that he was trying to cover up his mistake.

The two and a half year old rooster is still quite old. I stewed it for about an hour and a half. When I tasted it, I found that it was already quite rotten.

He quickly picked up the chestnuts and without caring about anything else, he packed up the chicken soup and brought it to the living room to prepare for dinner.

Fortunately, Zhou Huaian had cooked when he came back. After the rice was cooked, he came out to find his wife. Otherwise, even if the soup was ready, he might not have finished the meal so quickly.

The ginseng roots are indeed over a hundred years old. The chicken soup has a particularly strong ginseng flavor. As soon as I drank the first bowl of soup, I felt a steaming feeling all over my body.

He quickly used his special powers to allow his body to absorb the huge amount of medicinal power as quickly as possible. Then he found that the medicinal power of the ginseng beard entered every part of his body, just like a massage, and his whole body felt extremely relaxed.

The ginseng soup that Su Qingxue drank had the ability to help her digest it, and it only made her body a little stronger. Apart from that, there was no change at all. However, Zhou Huaian's change was quite big. His face turned red instantly, as if he was drunk, and his entire face was red.

Su Qingxue sat opposite him and looked at him, watching his face getting redder and red liquid flow out from under his nose.

"Hurry up and raise your head. Is it too nutritious? This isn't the first time you've drunk it. It was fine before!"

Zhou Huaian was not afraid. "I drank it before because it might have made up for the deficiencies in my body. This time I drank it again because it was too nutritious."

“That’s a shame.”

"I don't think it's a pity, but I just think you drank so much soup and didn't have any reaction. Are you too weak?"

Zhou Huaian began to wonder if his wife's health was too weak from giving birth?

I’m already thinking about preparing more nutritious meals in the future.

"No, I'm in great health. If you don't believe me, touch my hand. Isn't it extra warm?"

I put my hand in Zhou Huaian's palm, and both of their hands were very warm.

Zhou Huaian felt that his wife's hands were not cold, but he was still a little worried. He had made up his mind to make soup for his wife every day after coming home from get off work.

Since Zhou Huaian couldn't drink chicken soup, he could only eat some. The remaining pot of chicken soup went to Su Qingxue.

Unfortunately, Su Qingxue couldn't finish it, so she simply put it away at the end and saved it for the next meal.

I was originally thinking whether I should leave half and take it to the cowshed for Su's father and mother to drink?

Now I think it’s better to forget it. Who knows if their physique can drink it?

But they can take a small one and ask Grandpa Li to prescribe some tonic for them.
