Chapter 308: New Life
"Let's work first." Qiao Mo stuffed the rag into his hand and asked him to wipe the dust while she swept the floor.
Both of them were very efficient. In less than an hour, they cleaned the first floor, and then moved on to the second and third floors. At this time, the Wu Weiqian brothers also finished their work and came over. Qiao Mo left the cleaning to them and went to prepare dinner himself.
Moreover, when she took out the goods from the space in the morning, she not only took out a lot of vegetables, but also took out two slaughtered chickens, a few pounds of meat, and caught two big fish from the pond. Except for letting Wu Weiqian and others take half to the Wu family, she kept the rest for herself.
She first killed and filleted the fish, then marinated it and set it aside. She then chopped the chicken into pieces and blanched it in water, then soaked some dried bamboo shoots, and then washed the rice and cooked it.
After cooking the rice on the fire, she went to wash the vegetables. Because she was going to make boiled fish, she washed some bean sprouts, winter melon and lettuce leaves. As for the lettuce, she planned to save it for tomorrow.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Qiao Mo lit another fire and started cooking. Because there was a lot of chicken, she planned to cook it in two ways: half of it would be used to stew soup with mushrooms, and the other half would be used to stir-fry peppers.
Since the soup takes a long time to stew, she put the chicken used to stew mushrooms into a casserole, added ginger and stewed it on the fire. When the chicken was 80% cooked, she added the washed mushrooms and continued stewing.
By this time the rice was already cooked, so she took the rice pot away and put the wok on the new fire to cook.
While she was cooking, Kang Mingyuan and the other three cleaned the second and third floors, and Qiao Mo asked them to wash their hands before eating.
"My little sister is so generous. She just helped with the cleaning and made so many dishes to reward us." Wu Weiqian said with emotion as he looked at the table full of dishes.
"Isn't it convenient for me to buy vegetables? It's rare for you to eat here, so I'll get more food." Qiao Mo said with a smile as he packed his food.
"Thank you, little sister." Brother Wu Weiqian thanked her with a smile.
"Thank you Momo." Kang Mingyuan's eyes were full of smiles.
"You're welcome, let's eat." Qiao Mo scooped a bowl of soup for each person and said, "Have a bowl of soup first."
Several people cleared all the food on the table, and then said they were full, so Qiao Mo had to make digestive tea for them.
"Little sister, is it time to plant vegetables?" Wu Weiqian asked Qiao Mo while sitting in the living room. They had never planted vegetables before, and the place they went to in the countryside was in the northeast. The climate there was different from here, so he didn't know when they could plant vegetables here.
"Well, Qingming Festival is coming soon, and many vegetables can be planted." Qiao Mo nodded. The climate here is similar to that in Hunan Province. She remembered that when she was in Hunan Province, she planted vegetables around Qingming Festival.
"Then let's start preparing." Wu Weiqian nodded. They planned to grow some vegetables in the backyard so that his parents would not have to go to the vegetable store to buy some vegetables in the future.
"There is also a large vegetable patch in the backyard of your new house. We can grow some vegetables there." Today she went to the backyard on purpose to see that there was a large vegetable patch. There seemed to be some late cabbages and lettuces in the patch. They could definitely make use of that patch of land.
