Space Farming: The Rough Man Orion Dotes on His Wife Excessively
Chapter 297 New Year’s greetings
While pouring the hot water that had been put in the room in advance into the washbasin, Beye continued, "There is nothing to do these days during the Chinese New Year. If you are idle, you will be idle. Let's just burn some charcoal and keep it. We won't spend it in the future." If you use the money to buy charcoal, you can still sell the extra charcoal.”
Gu Rao had never calculated it before, but after Bieye calculated it like this, he realized belatedly that the profit from selling charcoal was quite considerable.
But, too tired.
Moreover, after doing business for so many years, the profit has doubled several times, even ten times, dozens of times, but the profit has only doubled, and the still tiring business is not very attractive to her.
Of course she could tell that Bieye saw the restaurant's business was bleak and was afraid that sooner or later the family's money would be spent and the restaurant would not be able to continue, so he wanted to make some money elsewhere.
She is in charge of the money at home. Bieye doesn't know exactly how much money she has, so it's normal to worry about not having enough money.
She suddenly remembered something. She seemed to have forgotten to give him pocket money for two consecutive months.
His expression became a little embarrassed.
"Didn't you advise me before not to let myself be so tired and to just spend enough money?"
"I have saved a lot of money. Even if Xiaoguai Restaurant can't make any money for a year and we still have to pay wages to our employees, it won't affect our current lives."
"It's really enough money."
"It's too tiring to make charcoal, and I have to stay by your side all the time. It's hard to rest for a few days. I don't want you to be so tired."
Bieye insisted, "I'm not afraid of getting tired. I feel at ease if I work more."
Gu Rao tried to persuade him, but when he saw that Bie Ye insisted, he gave it up and let him fiddle with it on his own. In the past few days, he would make him something delicious to supplement his food.

After Gu Rao washed up, he just pushed open the door. Unprepared, he was hit by a biting cold wind on his face, causing a slight stinging sensation.
It took a while to become familiar.
Then she went back into the house, took out a cloak and put it on herself. The big red cloak wrapped her in it. When she came out again, it was finally not cold anymore.
Fortunately, she had the foresight to take some time off in advance and make two cloaks for herself and Bieye. The outside was made of satin fabric and embroidered with white dark patterns, and the inside was made of fluffy wool.
Bieye was already chopping firewood in the yard.
Gu Rao stared at him for a while, stood under the eaves and admired the snow scenery for a while, and then walked towards the kitchen calmly.
I thought I was going to make breakfast, but when I opened the lid, I found that there were warm porridge and vegetable pancakes in the pot.
She got up a little late.
After breakfast, we have to prepare lunch immediately.
I didn’t want to touch cold water in the middle of winter, so I patiently boiled a pot of hot water in a medium pot. Even when washing vegetables, I used warm water.
At noon, we made three dishes and one soup, namely braised prawns, squirrel mandarin fish, duck with cordyceps and water shield soup.
After the meal was done, Beye finally put down the axe, wiped the sweat from his face and neck with the handkerchief on his shoulder, walked to the washing table, and was about to wash his hands with cold water.
Gu Rao quickly stopped him.
"Don't touch cold water in winter!"
"There is hot water in the kitchen. Just wait for me and I will bring you a basin of hot water."
Bieye followed her to the kitchen.
"I will do it myself."
Gu Rao watched him soak his hands in hot water and muttered, "Don't take care of your body just because you are young. Use cold water in winter now. If you get rheumatism or other diseases before you are thirty, you will be there." It’s time to regret!”
Soaking your hands in hot water is a pleasure in winter.
Bieye took Gu Rao's hand in and pressed her hand under his own.
"You take a dip too."
Gu Rao, "...I just wiped my hands dry not long ago!"
But it's already wet, so let's soak it again.
Bieye took a bunch of firecrackers and lit them with a torch at the door. With the crackling sound, people outside knew that the family was going to have lunch.
During the Chinese New Year here, it is customary to set off firecrackers before meals.
When he was in the second grade of junior high school, he brought some things to Xiang's family for them. Gu Rao didn't refuse. In the afternoon, he also sent a gift in return.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Yuan came with a basket on his back.
Gu Rao was a little surprised when he saw the person coming.
"Uncle Xu, why are you here?"
Xu Yuan said with a smile, "We killed the pigs in advance last month and baked some bacon. We sent some to Yuanyuan and the others. We also got five kilograms of bacon for you. Don't be too little."
For farmers, meat is very precious, not to mention that it is scented bacon. When it is given as a favor, unless it is a relative connected by blood, so much will not be given away at one time.
But Bieye had always kept it in mind for helping his son-in-law before, but he couldn't find any way to repay him. It would be too unreasonable to give him money, and Bieye wouldn't accept it. This time he just took advantage of the Chinese New Year to give some away. Give them some bacon.
These five kilograms of bacon are very precious to the farmers, but to Bieye, who is used to eating good food in the town, it is very inconspicuous. Xu Yuansheng is afraid that they will dislike it.
Bieye heard Xu Yuan's words in the house, put down his ax and walked out.
"You have raised pigs for a year and finally got some meat. Just keep them for yourself. We can buy the meat ourselves if we want it."
Gu Rao said, "It's snowing heavily outside, come in and talk."
After Xu Yuan walked in, he put down his backpack, took out the bacon and put it on the table, without giving Gu Rao and Bieye a chance to refuse.
Then he took out some juicy cabbage and white radish.
"There are no vegetables to eat in winter. There are only cabbages and radishes. There are still many in the fields. I have brought some for you. If there is not enough food, we have more in the fields. You can take as much as you want. If it is not convenient, I will I’ll bring you some next time I’m in town.”
After delivering the food, he didn't stay much longer.
"I'm busy in the first month and have things to do at home, so I won't stay any longer and will go back first."
Gu Rao wrapped some homemade cakes for Xu Yuan in oil paper bags as a return gift.
Xu Yuan declined several times.
Bieye said, "If you don't accept it, we won't want what you gave us either."
Xu Yuan had no choice but to accept it.
-
Not long after Xu Yuan left, Wu Jie and Xu Yuanyuan came again.
Wu Jie's business was doing pretty well during this period and he earned a lot of money. His face was full of glory at this time, and the things he sent were several times as much as those sent by Xu Yuan.
He had both hands full, but Xu Yuanyuan only held a basket in her hand.
Wu Jie was still worried about tiring her.
"Madam, you are pregnant, please leave your things to me."
If his wife hadn't said that she was bored at home during this period and wanted to take a chance to go out for a walk, he would never have let her come out on a snowy day.
He was careful along the way, fearing that his wife would slip and fall on her stomach.
Xu Yuanyuan glanced at him with disgust.
"See for yourself, which of your free hands can hold the basket?"
Wu Jie smiled honestly.
"Put the basket around my neck."
Xu Yuanyuan, "..."
Ever since she got pregnant, this man has been acting like a fool. Although she dislikes him on the surface, her bottomless love for him is still very useful in her heart.
"Your head is so big that the basket can't even fit in it!"
Wu Jie wished he could squeeze his head smaller.
"Then please be careful. Let's walk slower. When walking, look at your feet. The basket won't block your way, right?"
