MTL - Crossing Over I Became a Married Peasant Woman-Chapter 667 Pastoral anecdote
Pei Xiu was wandering around the field with Zhou Cheng, looking at the growth of potatoes and sweet potatoes, only to see her running over by herself again, and asked suspiciously, "Have you picked them yet?"
"No, there are a lot of ants on the corn, so disgusting, I don't want to pick it anymore."
"Normal, some might even have bugs. If you are a girl, don't join in the fun. If you get caught by bugs, it will be bad if you are allergic."
As soon as Mai thought of bugs, his brows wrinkled, "Mother, I want to wash my hands."
"Okay, let's go back to the yard to eat grapes. After the brothers finish picking the corn, we'll cook the corn to eat."
The sun was getting brighter now, and she stood in the sun for a while, and her face was flushed and sweating profusely.
She pursed her lips and nodded, "Mmmm."
Zhou Cheng touched her head and said, "It's too hot, you go back first, and I'll keep going."
"it is good."
Mai took her mother's hand and ran happily into the yard.
As soon as she got back to the yard, Pei Xiu washed her face first, her hair was sweaty, so she had to wait until the evening to wash her.
The basket of grapes that Zhou Yong picked had already been shared by everyone, everyone was in high spirits, and Ginkgo couldn't help but kept praising the deliciousness in her ears.
"Ma'am, the two baskets in the corner have been covered with leaves to protect from the sun. When Young Master Zhou Shan returns, he will put them on his carriage. I'm afraid it will be too sunny to carry them up now."
"Mmmm, let's wash two more strings, and cut a few pieces of watermelon."
She hadn't eaten grapes for many years. Because she hadn't washed them, she didn't dare to eat more. She only ate one or two.
"Madam, the general has explained that the watermelon is cold, you can't eat it."
Pei Xiu said helplessly: "I know, there are a few boys for wheat to eat, and they will be back after picking corn in a while, just to relieve the heat for them, the sun is so bright outside."
Ginkgo is now relieved.
When he brought it over, he narrowed his eyes with a smile, "Madam, these grapes taste so good, I didn't expect slaves to be able to eat tribute."
"I can eat it every year in the future, and I will have a little more variety next year. Did you save the seeds you just ate?"
"Yes, the slaves were afraid that the madam would be useful, so they explained that everyone should keep them, and they have been washed and dried in front of them."
Pei Xiu nodded in satisfaction.
I don’t worry about other people collecting seeds and planting them. It’s their ability to plant them. It’s a good thing to spread the seeds, and all the people can eat them.
She is not only able to make money by selling grapes, she can make wine, and wine is the real price gold. Fanbang only pays two jars of tribute a year, and I heard that it only appeared at palace banquets.
She also misses it a bit. Those grapes that fall can be used to practice hands.
"That small basket was dropped, remember to bring it back tomorrow."
"Yes, ma'am, the slaves have recorded it."
In the hot summer, eating grapes and catching a cold is a pleasant day, but it is a pity that watermelon cannot be eaten.
Seeing the wheat biting in big gulps, she could only watch, feeling a little depressed.
"Mother, do you want to secretly take a bite? I promise not to tell Dad!" Wheat blinked and said carefully and secretly.
Pei Xiu shook his head and was about to say something when he heard, "Your mother can't eat it, so don't eat it either, so as not to make her greedy!"
Wheat stared at the door, biting faster on his mouth, biting the white watermelon rind in three or two, and then threw it on the table.
"Father is too domineering, mother can't eat it, and won't let us eat it!" Fortunately, she was fast and finished eating.
Pei Xiu glared at Zhou Cheng angrily, "I didn't say I wanted to eat, which made me greedy like a child."
"You better eat grapes." Zhou Cheng picked up a piece of watermelon and gnawed it.
After a long time in the sun, he was already sweating, and it was not hot. He felt cool when he saw the watermelon before he ate it.
After taking a bite, the heat was completely gone.
"Father didn't let me eat it, but I ate it myself."
Mai Mai glanced at her father, stretched out his paw and took another piece, but Zhou Cheng took it away, "You are still young and your stomach is weak, so you can't eat more!"
She widened her eyes, looked at her empty hands, and looked up at her father, her cheeks bulging with anger!
"Father must have done it on purpose. Mother can't eat it. Don't you have to accompany mother through weal and woe? You even ate two pieces in a row in front of mother!"
Zhou Cheng's hand paused, looking at his daughter-in-law calmly, and immediately felt that her daughter-in-law was right.
"Then we won't buy watermelons in the future?"
Pei Xiu shook his head amusingly, "It's fine if I can't eat by myself, why should the whole family be with me? It's not a good thing."
"A few boys are still playing wildly outside, and they will definitely want to eat when they come back later."
As soon as the voice fell, the children's screams sounded outside.
"mother……"
"Mother... we're back..."
The third one jumped the fastest, "Mother, it's so hot, I want to drink water and eat watermelon..."
The others followed closely and rushed to the lobby. One of them grabbed a piece of watermelon and ate it.
"So cool, so cool~"
“So sweet~”
"Third brother, my father said that mother can't eat watermelon. In the future, our family will not buy watermelon. Everyone can't eat it. We must accompany mother through weal and woe!" Mai took the opportunity and complained to his brothers.
The third child was stunned for a moment. He couldn't eat watermelon. How could he survive this summer?
Pei Xiu poked her forehead with her index finger, "Your father is just talking about it, you are a whistleblower."
Mimi wrinkled her nose and glanced at her father who had nothing to do with it, "Hmph, who asked my father to **** my watermelon just now."
Zhou Yonghe carried the corn basket on Tuesday and landed at the back. As soon as he carried it into the yard, he shouted, "Mother, let's cook the corn for a while!"
After drilling into the ground for half the morning, they were a little hungry.
"Okay, come over and eat a piece of watermelon to relieve the heat, then peel the corn and cook it."
"OK."
They like to do this kind of thing, especially Shen Xiaojiu, he has never been on the ground before. Today's experience is too new.
After eating the watermelon in three or two bites, he dragged the corn basket to the shade under the porch and started peeling it first.
The others gathered around before they finished eating~www.novelbuddy.com~ The masters like to work, and the servants have no choice but to stay by the side and watch the young masters do it.
Corn was only popularized last year, and most people have never eaten it. People have also reported a strong interest in corn.
Wheat is no longer interested in peeling corn. She just wants to eat it now, but it doesn't prevent her from crowding around to join in the fun. She can watch her brothers peel it.
The bright yellow corn cobs were peeled out one by one, and the grains were full, and it was gratifying to look at.
After peeling a dozen or so, Mrs. Li brought it to the kitchen to cook first. For such a large basket, it was necessary to divide several pots.
