Chapter 360



After finishing the housework, Su Xia thought about it and asked for leave for 괗bao, and then the mother and daughter prepared to return to the village.

"Mom, I want to go back too?" When Dabao heard that his mother was taking his younger brother but not him, his grievances instantly burst out.

Su Xia glanced at Niu Niu and Chen Jianguo, meaning that you should keep an eye on him.

Xiaobao was running around excitedly, and when he saw his brother was about to cry, he ran over to comfort him.

"Brother, I'll be back soon and bring you something delicious."

Dabao pouted and for the first time didn't immediately respond to his younger brother.

Niu Niu rolled her eyes at her two younger brothers. If possible, she really hoped that Dabao could go back too.

"Wife, be careful on the road. I'll take Niuniu and the others back home on the weekend."

Chen Jianguo didn't react much to Su Xia's return to the village. There were indeed a lot of things to do at home. If his wife went back, his parents would be less tired. Every autumn harvest was a critical moment. Usually his mother didn't work much, but at this time, she would be left alone.

Su Xia didn't look at the younger one, but just told the man, "Just take care of the two of them."

"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of it and pick you up every day."

Su Xia was still at ease with men, and no one would rush over to steal the treasure.

"Mom, when are we leaving?"

"Let's go now and say goodbye to our brothers and sisters!"

"Um!"

Then I saw 괗bao turn around and shout loudly, "Sister and brother, goodbye...!"

Niuniu - there's really no need to be so loud.

Dabao still felt aggrieved, but he also knew that he was in school and it was not as convenient as his younger brother.

"Mom, you must come back early!" Dabao stared at Su Xia and instructed.

Su Xia nodded, "Well, when I'm done with the housework, Mom will be back!"

Dabao felt better now. In fact, he didn't want to leave his mother.

Su Xia rode the bicycle with 괗宝 sitting on the front bar and the things she was going to bring back to the village tied to the back seat.

Then he waved goodbye to the father and son and gradually left their sight.

"Okay, let's go too. We'll be late!" Chen Jianguo couldn't see Su Xia's figure clearly.

Greeting Niu Niu and Dabao, the two children ignored their sadness and hurriedly picked up their schoolbags and were sent to school by Chen Jianguo.

When Su Xia arrived in the village, only Chen's mother was feeding the pigs at home.

Seeing the mother and daughter, he was shocked at first, then exclaimed in disbelief, "Why are you back?"

Su Xia put 괗bao down, and the brat ran directly to Chen's mother, "Grandma, I'm here to help you...!"

Mother Chen hugged Xiaobao's little body and looked at Su Xia. Su Xia nodded and responded, "Well, Xiaobao doesn't need to worry about school, so go home and stay for a while."

Hearing this, Mother Chen looked at 괗bao's little face and grinned happily.

I thought the old man was just talking big, "Don't worry, just wait a while, and you'll be back to help!"

Su Xia watched Xiaobao and Chen's mother chattering away, and moved all the things she had brought to the kitchen.

They took them out one by one, and there were 5 pounds of pork, most of which were fat and less lean. Half of this was prepared to make lard, and the other half was given to Chen's father and mother to improve their diet. Every autumn harvest, they would skin a layer of pork.

3 pounds of spare ribs, 10 large bones, take out two separately and give them to my two younger brothers and sisters.

While Chen's mother was not paying attention, he quickly took out two fish, two pig's trotters, and 3 pounds of lard from the space.

What's left is brown sugar, white sugar, and two bags of bean bran.

A piece of tofu and some snacks for Bao.

There was nothing else, so Su Xia put them away one by one, thinking that she would start again after she was done with her work.

When Chen's mother came in and saw the meat, she was happy, but she still felt distressed out of habit.

"Why buy so much meat?"

After Su Xia heard this, she saw that Chen's mother's mouth was almost stretched to the back of her head, and she didn't look distressed at all.

"Oh my god, there are fish, they are so big?" Even Xiaobao could hear the excitement in Chen's mother's voice.

"Pork trotters, spare ribs, large bones, and lard. How much oil does this produce...?"

After seeing the end, Chen's mother was still shocked. She wondered how many meat tickets the old lady had. When they went there a few days ago, she even gave meat tickets to the old lady.

"Mom, except for this one, which requires meat coupons, you can get the others if you go early!" Su Xia explained again.

"And this, I found it there!"

After listening to Su Xia's explanation, Chen's mother immediately understood what the place was.

However, she had never been arrested in the past few years. Even if she refused, no one could do anything about it.

Su Xia took out two separate ribs and two pieces of tofu and handed them to Chen's mother.

"Mom, please share this with my brother and sister-in-law. I won't go."

Upon hearing this, Chen's mother took it and said, "Okay, I'll give it to them. Oh, by the way, the pigs at home have been fed. I have to go find your father. You can just be at home."

Su Xia nodded, relieved. "Even if I come back to help, I won't go to work."

When Xiaobao heard his grandmother leave, he ran over and said, "Mom, can I follow you?"

When Chen's mother heard this, she wanted to refuse immediately, but Su Xia did not give her a chance.

"Okay, I'll dress you and put on a hat for you. Just follow grandma and don't run around, okay?"

Then he said to Chen's mother, "Mom, just don't run around."

Chen's mother held back her refusal and had to take her grandson to work.

Su Xia applied sunscreen to 괗bao, including her face, arms and neck.

She wore a thin coat and a straw hat. She grabbed a handful of candies, about six in total, and said, "Let's go, follow grandma. Come back early at noon, and then make sure grandpa and grandma aren't too tired. Do you hear me?"

괗bao immediately assured, “I heard you, Mom!”

Su Xia also laughed when she saw the kid running out. Although the child was noisy, he was still healing.

After Chen's mother returned to the old house, she put the things in the kitchen first, and waited until she got off work at noon to hand them over to her grandparents.

There is no one at home now, and even the smallest puppy has to go to work. Who should I take care of?

"Grandma, I'm dressed. When are we leaving?" 괗bao's voice came.

Mother Chen quickly put on her straw hat and picked up the backpack filled with tools. "Let's go. If you feel tired, tell grandma!"

괗Bao nodded, "I understand, Grandma!"

After Su Xia sent Xiaobao away, she didn't rest at all. She walked around the house and the front and back yards. A big goose called enthusiastically, "Goose, goose!"

Su Xia let them out and put them outside to let them get some fresh air.

Looking at the pig that had become fatter, Su Xia smiled slyly.

The frightened fat pig hid in the pigpen, looking at Su Xia as if she were a stranger.

Su Xia curled her lips and said, "Hmph - let you live for another two months."

Then go back to the kitchen and start cooking the meat, 2 pounds of pork and 1 pound of lard. After cooking, start to boil lard.

Thinking about the oil residue, Su Xia decided to eat buns for lunch.

I went to the backyard and picked two more cabbages, and came back with a big meal...

When they were looking for flour, they found half a bag of cornmeal and a bag of white flour, which was almost 20 kilograms. Su Xia sighed, thinking that these old couple were really thrifty.

The other noodles and millet were left untouched, and more than half of the corn grits were missing.

Su Xia scooped two bowls of white flour and one bowl of cornmeal, took out a bag of yeast from the space, and let the dough rise.

All that’s left is to wait for the lard to be cooked, and then sit back and wait for lunch to be made.
