Cheng Mingyue saw that Cheng Xiangnan was very depressed and quickly changed the subject:
"Second brother, let's go to the market in Lotus Village together tomorrow!"
Cheng Xiangnan was immediately attracted by Cheng Mingyue's words, and he smiled happily, showing his big white teeth.
"Okay, let's go early tomorrow morning. Mom said before that she wanted to take the vegetables from our yard to exchange for some things with others."
Speaking of which, Cheng Mingyue is also particularly interested in tomorrow's market. She has never been to a market before and really wants to go and see it for herself, and also buy some things to bring back.
Her house is still too simple now.
Cheng Mingyue said hello and went back home.
Lu Chen had just returned not long ago. Seeing Cheng Mingyue's happy face, he couldn't help but joked:
"Why do you look like a victorious rooster? What shocking things have you done? Tell me about it and let me have some fun!"
Cheng Mingyue didn't care about Lu Chen's teasing and proudly recounted her previous battle record.
When Lu Chen heard this, he shouted, "Good guy!"
Mingyue from his family has stopped studying recipes and started studying military tactics!
However, Lu Chen was very happy in his heart. It was good that Mingyue had a little edge. If he was not by her side in the future, she would not be bullied. At least she had the ability to protect herself.
Cheng Mingyue chatted for a while and then got busy cooking with Lu Chen.
She hadn't eaten breakfast and had been busy for a long time, so she was starving.
Cheng Mingyue simply steamed rice for Lu Chen and fried two dishes, while she herself had a diet meal without oil or salt as usual.
Lu Chen looked at the food Cheng Mingyue ate, which looked like grass, and felt so distressed. He stole a glance at Cheng Mingyue's face and said hesitantly:
"Mingyue, I really don't think you're fat. Why don't you stop losing weight? It makes me feel so bad seeing you like this."
Cheng Mingyue looked up and saw Lu Chen's face full of heartache. Her heart was moved and she explained softly with a smile on her face:
"I'm losing weight not just to look good, but also for my health. If a person is too fat, their immunity will be weakened. And according to research, obese people are more likely to get sick than thin people, and it may even affect their lifespan."
Cheng Mingyue's voice was sweet and sticky, but it sounded particularly harsh to Lu Chen's ears, and his heart almost stopped beating out of fear.
He wanted to grow old with his Mingyue, and he would never let her get sick or have a short life.
Lu Chen immediately said that he would supervise Cheng Mingyue to lose weight in the future.
In the end, he refused to let Cheng Mingyue eat a piece of braised pork, and brought up today's conversation, looking at her with a condemning look.
It was as if she had committed a great sin by eating a piece of braised pork and she didn't want to grow old with him.
Cheng Mingyue really had a lot of grievances in her heart.
The next day, Cheng Mingyue got up early. After breakfast, she made more than a dozen pancakes for Lu Chen to eat at noon, and then she hurried to her parents' home.
The village chief's family had just finished their meal. When Wang Guihua saw Cheng Mingyue, she held her hand tightly and refused to let go.
Zhang Hongying and Zhang Lan went to clean up the dishes, and the two brothers of the Cheng family went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables. In a short while, they picked a small basket full of vegetables.
Seeing this, Cheng Mingyue had an idea. "Big Brother, Second Brother, why don't you go to my vegetable garden and pick some more? Lu Chen and I can't eat that much. If we eat it all in a few days, it will go bad."
"Okay, I'll get a backpack and go to your house to pick vegetables." Cheng Xiangnan responded and ran to the utility room to get the backpack.
The two little guys, Cheng Xiaolong and Cheng Xiaohu, were happily spinning around the bicycles.
They haven't ridden a bicycle since that last time. His grandfather treasures the bicycle so much that he usually won't let them touch it.
Cheng Mingyue's attention was also attracted by the bicycle, and then she sadly discovered that she still couldn't ride it.
So many things have happened recently that she has not had time to study. Looking at the two little ones' shining eyes, she suddenly felt very proud:
"Xiaolong, Xiaohu, when I learn to ride a bike, I'll take you for a ride every day. You can go wherever you want."
Cheng Xiaolong and Cheng Xiaohu looked at her in disbelief.
Cheng Xiaohu held it in for a long time, but when he couldn't hold it in any longer, he said:
"Aunt, you knocked over the toilet when you were learning to ride a bike. Have you forgotten?"
Although Cheng Xiaolong didn't say it explicitly, the force of his nod was not light at all.
Cheng Mingyue's head exploded, and she finally found the dramatic scene of learning to ride a bicycle in the original owner's memory.
The village chief spent money to buy a bicycle for Cheng Jiawang, and Cheng Mingyue cried and made a fuss about wanting to ride it. The village chief couldn't persuade her any more, so he asked the two brothers of the Cheng family to go with her to the threshing ground to learn how to ride.
Cheng Xiangdong and Cheng Xiangnan learned it after just a few laps, but the original owner just couldn't learn it no matter what. In the end, the two Cheng brothers were so tired that they were sweating. Without paying attention, the original owner rode his bicycle crookedly and crashed into the toilet near the village office.
Just like that, the village toilet was gloriously sacrificed, and the original owner got a big bump on his head. From then on, the original owner never mentioned learning to ride a bicycle again.
This was also due to Cheng Jiawang's cunningness. He was afraid that if he rode a bike back, the village chief would take the bike back. From then on, he would rather walk back from the town than ride a bike.
Cheng Mingyue's face flushed with embarrassment after she finished recalling the past, but she still said confidently:
"That was in the past. I'm much thinner now. I can definitely learn it."
Wang Guihua opened her mouth again and again, but in the end said nothing.
Soon Cheng Xiangdong and Cheng Xiangnan came back carrying backpacks.
"Mingyue, how do you grow these vegetables? Not only are they bigger than ours, but there are more of them too. We just tried one and it tastes much better."
Cheng Mingyue's eyes turned when she heard this. "If you like it, you can share some of my dishes with us and let my parents and sister-in-law have a taste too."
Cheng Mingyue had thought about picking some vegetables and asking her mother to bring them back, but Wang Guihua always made excuses, saying that they were already grown at home. In addition, she had been busy treating Lu Chen's leg recently, so she forgot about it.
She adds a little bit of spiritual spring water to the water used to water the vegetables. It is definitely more nutritious than the water here, and it can also help her family members to regulate their health.
The two brothers looked at each other, smiled brightly, and went into the kitchen carrying their backpacks.
After a while, the two came out and said to Cheng Mingyue: "Yue'er, I think your dish is much more delicious than ours, and the price should be higher."
Cheng Mingyue's eyes lit up after hearing this. Her two brothers seemed to have quite a business acumen.
She was also happy to teach them more.
"Big brother, second brother, find a knife and bring it with you. When you trade with people later, you can cut a little and let them taste it. Once they have tasted it, it will be much easier for you to raise the price."
It may not be said that rural people are very educated, but they are quite knowledgeable about the quality of agricultural products. After all, they have been dealing with the soil since childhood.
Cheng Xiangdong and Cheng Xiangnan were as if a window had suddenly been opened. They were extremely excited, and their faces turned red with excitement.
Seeing this, Cheng Mingyue did not forget to add fuel to the fire.
