Chapter 395 No One Suffers Loss
"Grandma, why are you talking about this all of a sudden?"
"Isn't this something that comes naturally? Okay, I know you don't want to hear it, but just take it to heart a little bit. It won't waste time. Go get busy. I can handle this."
Grandma Ye waved her hand and said, then turned around and went in again, dragging the sack to the door.
Ye Qiuer thought that grandma would continue talking for a while, and her ears were ready for what was coming in and out, but she didn't expect the topic to end so suddenly. She raised the corner of her mouth, and then dragged a sack of grain to the yard.
"Xiaozhi, go to the pepper field and pick a small basket full of peppers."
Xu Yuan shouted to Xu Zhi that it was very simple to process sweet potato leaves. Just pinch off the leaves and then cut the stems short with a knife.
"Okay." Xu Zhi replied.
"Second sister, let me go. Brother Dong and I will be back soon." Guozi put down the sweet potato stalks in his hand and said to Xu Zhi.
"Okay." Xu Zhi nodded, glanced at Ye Dong'er who was working silently beside him, and moved his eyes away. There were already a lot of cut poles piled on the bamboo sieve. He got up and went into the kitchen, bringing a wooden basin.
My sister said that after washing these poles, they should be hung up to dry to remove moisture. In fact, the method is similar to pickling Cantonese vegetables.
Xu Yuan and Ye Qiuer went back and forth several times and finally emptied all the grain in the sacks in the utility room into the yard. If it weren't for Xu Yuan's heavy breathing, Ye Qiuer was so tired that she could hardly straighten her back.
"Xuyuan, you are really strong." When Ye Qiuer saw Xuyuan could lift the sack and walk easily, she couldn't believe it. Which girl could be as strong as Xuyuan? She also knew how heavy a sack of grain was. Compared to herself, she was still a little shaky when she lifted it. In comparison, she felt inferior.
"No need to worship me, I am naturally strong."
Xu Yuan felt an admiring gaze from Ye Qiuer and teased.
"Stop talking. I'm even more jealous." Ye Qiuer said dejectedly. The man in front of her had a good appearance, a good brain, and now he was strong as well. He also knew some martial arts and was good at cooking. It would be great if he was a man. She really didn't know which man would be so lucky to be accepted by a wish.
Influenced by her grandmother, Ye Qiuer was able to think of this matter unconsciously. For the sake of her good sister, she thought about it for a moment and still felt that no one was worthy of making a wish.
"Come back to your senses. What are you thinking about?" Xu Yuan waved his hand in front of Ye Qiuer and asked.
"Hahaha, it's nothing." Ye Qiuer quickly reacted and laughed.
"Sister, Sister Qiu, please make way." Manyu shouted loudly and ran over from the other side pushing a grain rake.
"Xiaoduo is a really capable child." Grandma Ye heard the noise and walked out of the utility room. She looked up and couldn't help but praise.
These children have been taught very well by Xu Yuan, and they are so sensible that it makes people feel distressed. Looking at that slender and tall figure, who is about the same age as his eldest granddaughter, but has to take care of a family, Xu Yuan feels distressed from the bottom of his heart.
"Xiaoduo, go take a rest after you finish this piece."
Xuyuan made way for Xuanyu to run over. The grains on the bamboo mat were spread out very flatly. Xuanyu was enjoying it as if it were a game. Hearing this, he just said "hmm" and ran away again.
"Wang!"
Lai Fu walked out of the doghouse, wagging his tail. He stretched himself first, then shouted to everyone, and then started howling.
Ye Qiuer asked: "What happened to Lai Fu? Why is he yelling like that? I feel like this tone is somewhat familiar."
"Imitate the crowing of roosters. They crow once every morning and then stop."
Xu Yuan replied calmly, he didn't know when Lai Fu started to crow like this, at first he would start crowing when it was just getting light, along with the roosters in the village, but now he wakes up only when the sun rises.
"Lai Fu is a very particular dog." Ye Qiuer said with a smile.
Just as Xu Yuan said, Lai Fu just howled for a while and then stopped.
He wished to untie Laifu's rope and let it move freely. After Laifu was free, he immediately ran towards the gate of the yard without even looking back.
"Xuyuan, aren't you afraid that Lai Fu will run into the forest? Why are you so confident in letting him out?"
Ye Qiuer felt that Lai Fu's body was bigger than that of dogs of other ages. He didn't look like an ordinary puppy, but rather more like... a wolf cub.
The more she looked at it, the more it seemed to be the case. Ye Qiuer felt that Xu Yuan should know about this. It was quite cool to be able to get a wolf cub to raise as a guard at home.
“It knows the way back.”
Guozi and Ye Dong'er came back soon. The millet in the yard had been spread out evenly, waiting to be exposed to the sun.
The sun was very hot at this moment, and several people had already sat on the corridor, helping to prepare the sweet potato stalks.
Xu Yuan took the red peppers that the two brought back, washed them, and also put them on a bamboo sieve to dry out the moisture in the sun, and then asked Hao Duo Wagashi to break some garlic.
"Boom boom boom!"
There was a knock on the gate. Xu Yuan looked up and was a little surprised to see that it was Grandma Pan who came over, followed by Pan Dahai who was carrying a backpack.
"Xiaoyuan, you are all at home, so I came just in time."
"That's unfortunate. Grandma Pan, please sit inside." Xu Yuan said.
"Hey, good."
When Grandma Ye saw the familiar figure, she quickly stood up to greet her, "Hey, Sister Pan, why are you here?"
"Shufen, it's a rare occasion for you to come here, so I came to see you. The last time we met was a long time ago." Grandma Pan said with a smile.
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows. Do these two know each other? Is it such a coincidence?
"Sister, the last time you went to Chunyang City, Sister Qiu came here as a guest. Grandma Pan happened to be here too, so they got to know each other." Xu Zhi explained as if they had a telepathic connection when he saw his sister's surprised expression.
"I'm so sorry, Sister Pan. I came here in a hurry and didn't plan to stay long, so I didn't want to disturb you." Grandma Ye explained, and before she left, she asked Xu Yuan to pass a large bag of noodles to her.
"You and I both know what you are talking about. We are old now, so let's not talk about this." Grandma Pan never said unlucky words. She took out four small jars from the backpack.
Half for Xuyuan and half for Grandma Ye.
"These are salted duck eggs. They are the idea of Miss Yuan. Take some back and try them."
"Haha, what a coincidence! I prepared this big bag of noodles for Xiaoyuan to give to you. It was also Xiaoyuan's idea. Take it back and try it. After boiling it in hot water, you will get edible noodles."
"This is noodles! Noodles like this can be kept for a long time, and you're giving me so much. No, no, you're really at a disadvantage. Why are you giving me so much?"
"How can I lose money? Just take it. Your salted duck eggs are valuable, too. Give me two jars."
Grandma Ye and Grandma Pan began to be humble and neither of them wanted to let the other suffer.
Xu Yuan and Ye Qiuer looked at each other and smiled, then shook their heads helplessly.
