How would Lin Su know where the dried cucumbers were?

She went out.

Her daughter told her to calm down and not get too excited, so she did as she was told.

Lin Su didn't want her daughter to worry about her.

My daughter is already annoying enough, why does she want to add more trouble?

Meng Wantang looked at Lin Su's back from inside the house, his brows furrowed.

"Don't people around know that my mom is not in good health? Why did you tell her about this? You are just looking for trouble, right?"

"Maybe it was an unintentional mistake."

Lu Qingye reached out and touched her face. Meng Wantang's face was slightly flushed due to anger. The temperature of her face was back to normal, even a little hot.

Meng Wantang glared at him angrily: "How careless can you be to tell my mother such a terrible thing."

She was really angry.

Anyone who has lost a parent will become a little paranoid and crazy.

Meng Wantang also knew that what Lu Qingye said might be true, but she couldn't help but think about the worst.

What if they really have bad intentions?

Defenses can not do without.

She'd better be a little more cautious.

Once my feet were warmed up, my whole body became much warmer as well.

Meng Wantang just moved his feet, wiped his feet and handed it over.

"You don't have to stay here to watch over me. I'm fine."

Meng Wantang dried her feet, put on her socks, and was about to put on her shoes and go out to pour water for washing her feet.

Someone had already taken the lead and brought out the foot washing water.

Lin Su came in from outside, empty-handed as expected.

"Don't bully Qingye all day long. He's already very good. He even brings you water to wash your feet. You should be content."

Meng Wantang put on her shoes and looked down to see if the laces were tied nicely.

She said directly and slowly, "Mom, you are wrong to think like that. Husbands and wives should take care of each other. When I am not feeling well, he takes care of me, and when he is not feeling well, I take care of him. There is no question of bullying or not. If I am feeling bad, he doesn't even want to help me pour water for washing my feet. He doesn't even boil a cup of hot water for me, but simply asks, 'Are you feeling bad? Go to the hospital.' I'd rather not have such a person."

Lin Su: "..."

"Men are out there making money..."

Meng Wantang interrupted Lin Su without even thinking: "Don't think like that, I'm also making money outside. Even if I make ten dollars less than him a month, I can still live without him. Why should I live with someone who doesn't care about me at all?"

"I just said one sentence, and you have ten sentences waiting for me here."

Meng Wantang: "That's because what you said doesn't make sense. When you get married, you should find someone who understands you, not someone who is your ancestor. Mom, you didn't think so before."

"..."

Lin Su was speechless.

"By the way, who told you? About me being bullied?"

"It's the wife of Li Donglai next door." Lin Su noticed that Meng Wantang's eyes were not right, and quickly dissuaded her, "Don't go and settle the score with her. She just said it casually. It was only after I asked a few more questions that she told me the truth."

"Why would I go and settle accounts with them? If I go to their house, they won't tell you anything in the future, and they may even avoid you."

"Yes, yes, that's the truth."

Lin Su felt relieved to see that her daughter was so insightful.

Lu Qingye listened to the whole thing outside the door, his eyes met Meng Wantang's, and he was driven out by Meng Wantang's eyes.

"Mom, it's still early. I'll make some pickled cucumbers. You can cook some porridge in the morning and then make some pickles. Otherwise, you'll just eat pickled vegetable strips all day. Or stewed cabbage. You'll get tired of it after a while."

Lin Su thought so too, but did not nod immediately. Instead, she asked with concern: "You are freezing, can you work now?"

"It wasn't that cold. I held a hot water bottle with me all the way. I just sat in the car on the way back. My feet weren't moving, so my blood wasn't circulating. The wind made me feel a little cold, but I felt better after soaking my feet."

"Okay, then, let's just go through this trouble?"

"The main thing is that this chili sauce is a bit troublesome to make. Anyway, the weather is quite cold, so let's light a little more fire. The house can be a little warmer. I'll make the chili sauce first. You're responsible for washing the cucumbers."

"Then go find the cucumbers first and I'll wash them. Is that pepper enough?"

Meng Wantang nodded: "I brought all the peppers I grew before. There are also some green peppers. Green peppers are used to make chili sauce. It's not spicy, but the taste is okay. I will make two kinds later. One spicy and one non-spicy. The non-spicy one is for you to eat."

"Just cook what you guys eat. There's no need to go through so much trouble. We can eat anything."

Lin Su felt that doing these things was too troublesome and she didn't want her daughter to suffer too much.

These things are just trivial matters to Meng Wantang.

If the stove at home is burning, the heating in the house will also be warm.

Meng Wantang boils the water first.

She asked Lian Suo to wash the cucumbers with boiling water, and she cut the green peppers and chili peppers. She also called Lu Dian over and asked him to chop the chili peppers.

Meng Wantang found the peanuts, and also took out the sugar and MSG, and put them aside for later use.

She cut a piece of the beef she bought and made beef noodles.

The process of making beef powder is quite complicated, a bit similar to meat floss.

Meng Wantang spent a lot of time making a jar.

"What is this for?"

Lin Su looked curious.

"This is a proprietary recipe. Adding this will enhance the flavor. You'll know the difference when you taste it later."

Making chili sauce is more complicated.

It's actually quite simple once you've done it once.

Lin Su looked troublesome, but Meng Wantang handled it with ease.

Finally, the chili sauce should be cooked in the pot.

The heat is more important, but the most important thing is to stir and fry constantly.

While Meng Wantang was doing this, she did not forget to ask Lu Qingye to help.

"Yes, just keep turning it over like this, and be careful not to let it get stuck on the bottom."

Meng Wantang has limited strength, so this kind of physical work is left to Lu Qingye, who doesn't have any skills anyway.

After trying it a couple of times, you'll basically be an expert.

Meng Wantang took out the vegetables, washed them, cut them skillfully, and placed them on a plate for later use.

"Let's make potato rice today." Meng Wantang glanced at the time and felt that making potato rice would be faster.

Then just stir-fry two more dishes and you’ll be done.

Lin Su had no opinion on what to eat. She couldn't cook anyway, so she had no right to express an opinion.

"I can do it."

"Then make potato rice, but make more. This rice doesn't make you feel hungry. It's easy to eat more."

Lin Su had never eaten potato rice, so she thought Meng Wantang was exaggerating.

"A small bowl is enough for me."

Meng Wantang silently scooped another bowl of rice.
