The Only Favorite Ugly Husband

Chapter 17 Taking Care of Your Body

Brother Zhao Jin still ate the egg.

He ate very little this morning, but he ate very full at noon under Jiang Zhen's care, and he was particularly energetic in the afternoon.

It's just that although he is very energetic and works very fast, his mind is not on the work, but he thinks of other things.

After he dug out the mole, he regarded himself as a man and made up his mind not to get married. Even though he recently planned to spend the rest of his life with Jiang Zhen, he forgot to think about having a baby, but now Jiang Zhen brought up this matter up.

Brother Zhao Jin felt a little guilty.

The fertility rate of Shuang Er has a lot to do with the color of the mole, the brighter the color of the mole, the higher the fertility rate of Shuang Er, but his mole was always dull before being dug out .

At the beginning, the old man in the village said that it would be difficult for him to have children with his appearance, and this was one of the reasons why he could not get married...Jiang Zhen should have known about this, so did he specifically mention it today because he wanted to take good care of himself? ?

I was already ugly and difficult to give birth, but now that I am so old, I really need to take good care of it, otherwise I might not be able to have children in the future.

Thirsty and tired after working for a long time, Zhao Jinge wanted to scoop up some water to drink, but stopped his movements.

The more particular people in the village, women and Shuang'er, don't drink raw and cold water, for fear that drinking it will damage their health... He better stop drinking it.

After sitting for a while, Zhao Jinge started working again.

Jiang Zhen had no idea that Brother Zhao Jin had thought so much because of his teasing words.

In fact, he didn't have much idea about having children in the future.

Before crossing, he never thought about children. After crossing, although he knew that Zhao Jinge was a fertile twin, he didn't think about it too far. "Good fertility" was just a casual talk, just to see Zhao Jinge shy look.

After eating with Brother Zhao Jin, Jiang Zhen went to clean up the fish he caught in the morning.

He threw those fish into the basket, and many of them died, but the loaches and the like were still alive... When Jiang Zhen reached the river, he began to scrape the fish scales and dissect the fish maw with a butcher's sharp knife, tearing the small ones The fish are cleaned up.

The fish were easy to clean up, but the loach was too slippery, so it was very troublesome to deal with. Jiang Zhen didn't pay attention, and even let a loach escape into the river.

Loach is eaten in many places without killing it, and it is cooked and eaten directly after raising it for a few days, but here in Hexi Village, the head of the loach is cut off with scissors, washed and eaten before eating. As for the method...

Poured the loaches on the muddy ground next to them, one by one, Jiang Zhen chopped off the heads of all the loaches with the pig-killing knife.

Although the dead loaches are still very slippery, at least they will not escape. At this time, it is good to cut open their stomachs and squeeze out the intestines in their stomachs.

After dealing with the loach, Jiang Zhen first dealt with the rice field eel that he had caught, which was no bigger than the thickness of a pinky finger, and then cleaned some miscellaneous things in it.

He took the snake back yesterday and cooked it by himself, but today... since he has regarded Brother Zhao Jin as his daughter-in-law, then Brother Zhao Jin's parents are his parents, so of course he has to show respect.

Speaking of it, he has always respected the old and loved the young. If the butcher Jiang and the old lady Jiang were not too much, he would not be able to use a knife on the two old people no matter what.

Carrying the bamboo basket, Jiang Zhen went to Brother Zhao Jing who was plowing the ground.

The man who was working looked very attractive. Jiang Zhen really wanted to squeeze a few, but in the end he endured it. He just took out his own bamboo tube filled with water and gave it to Brother Zhao Jin: "Come on, drink some water and take a rest." Brother Zhao Jin Lips are a bit dry, probably thirsty.

Brother Zhao Jin was indeed thirsty, took the bamboo tube Jiang Zhen gave him, and drank a bamboo tube of water, thinking that he must bring boiled water from home to drink tomorrow.

Seeing Brother Zhao Jing finished drinking the water, Jiang Zhen put away the bamboo tube and gave him the bamboo basket: "This is for you."

"What is it?" Zhao Jinge opened the lid of the bamboo basket and looked, and saw a basket of small fish and shrimps that had already been packed.

"You take it home and cook it. Even if the taste may not be very good, you should eat more." Jiang Zhen said: "Don't refuse, I can't finish so much by myself."

"Okay..." Brother Zhao Jin thought that he had to take care of his body, so he nodded immediately, and then asked, "Are you coming over at night?"

"Come!" Jiang Zhen said immediately, looking at Brother Zhao Jin with some joy, he didn't expect that Brother Zhao Jin would ask him out on his own initiative.

"Then I'll cook it later, I'll save some for you." Zhao Jinge said.

"Okay, let's eat together later." Jiang Zhen was in a better mood, and couldn't help but want to kiss Brother Zhao Jin. Unfortunately, someone might come here at any time, so he could only give up his plan regretfully.

Brother Zhao Jin smiled, and then looked at the things in the bamboo basket with some puzzlement: "Why did you put the stone crabs in there too? You can't eat these things, you can only feed them to ducks."

"Eating this is good for your health." Jiang Zhen said, the stone crab Zhao Jinge mentioned is a kind of crab that lives in the river ditches here and is only slightly bigger than a one-yuan coin.

This kind of crab crawls everywhere in the countryside, and likes to hide under the stones by the water. People in Hexi Village call them stone crabs.They are very small and have no meat at all, so no one has ever eaten them. If they caught them, they would just smash them up and feed them to the ducks.

However, Jiang Zhen thought that chewing a few of these crabs should be able to replenish calcium, so instead of throwing them away, he kept them.

Since Jiang Zhen said that eating this is good, Zhao Jinge secretly decided that he must eat more later.

Thinking of the last time Zhao Dahu's family asked him for loach, Brother Zhao Jin didn't return the farm tools with a bamboo basket after finishing the work.

After returning the farm tools and doing some work for Mr. Zhao's family, he put the bamboo basket he had hidden on his back and went home.

"Father, mother, I'm back." After returning home, Brother Zhao Jin gave the bamboo basket to his mother.

"Brother Jin, are you going to catch fish?" Zhao Liushi glanced at the bamboo basket and asked in surprise, her son is supposed to have no time to catch fish.

"I didn't catch it, Boss Jiang caught it for me." Zhao Jinge said, bowing his head a little embarrassedly.

When Zhao Jinge mentioned Boss Jiang, he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart, hoping that his parents would ask a few more questions, but Zhao Liushi didn't think much at all: "Is he just to thank you for saving him last time? It’s a thank you.”

Mrs. Zhao and Liu muttered something, and then said: "But recently his mother scolded him every day in the village... If you see him, please persuade him, it is his parents after all."

In the past, when Boss Jiang was being bullied, everyone in Hexi Village sympathized with him, but when he suddenly became more powerful, the person being bullied became Mrs. Jiang, and everyone sympathized with him as a matter of course.

But Zhao Jinge felt that Mrs. Jiang deserved it, and couldn't help complaining to Jiang Zhen in his heart, but he couldn't speak, so he didn't refute his mother.

"Our family is out of oil, otherwise the fish we make will taste much better..." Zhao Liushi sighed, the fish that is too small will dissipate after cooking, so she steamed it and ate it, loach rice field eel and Zhao Jinge She insisted on keeping the stone crabs and boiled them in a pot with pickles.

There is no seasoning, not even a little bit of oil, so the fish cooked in this way will have a fishy smell, but people here eat fish for many years and are well adapted to the fishy smell, but they don't care at all.

Brother Zhao Jin has good teeth, he can chew up the small steamed fish and swallow them whole without picking out their thorns. With pickles, he ate three big bowls of porridge in one go.

He also ate a lot of stone crabs, which were full of shells and no meat, but chewing them whole with their shells was very delicious.

Zhao's father and Zhao's mother also ate some small fish, but specially left some rice field eel and loach boiled with pickles, and asked Zhao Jinge to bring it to Boss Jiang.

Brother Zhao Jin thought so, and nodded immediately, but he didn't go to Jiang's house with a bowl, but waited in that thatched hut. As expected, Jiang Zhen came after a short while.

They ate those eels and loach.

"It's a pity that there are too few seasonings and no oil..." Jiang Zhen ate a piece of eel, couldn't help sighing, and at the same time began to think about getting some oil to eat.

It's just... There was little meat oil in ancient times, and the yield of vegetable oil was low due to poor oil extraction technology. He really has no money to buy it now.

Jiang Zhen can say that he has nothing now, and he has not even fully recovered his body, so he put down these thoughts for the time being.

As for the future... Jiang Zhen's eyes fell on that canal. He always finds a way to earn some money to support himself, and the job that is more suitable for him in this world is probably doing business.

He didn't have the skills to make a living in ancient times, and he couldn't do anything other than being a merchant. Fortunately, doing business these days is not as difficult as later generations. The so-called merchants only need to exchange goods between the two places.

In the following days, Jiang Zhen's life was similar to this day.

Find a way to find all kinds of edible things in the morning, have a meal with Brother Zhao Jin at noon, and then go shopping around in the afternoon to continue looking for edible things...

Small fish and shrimps are things that many people in Hexi Village look down on. They are still nutritious. After eating for a few days, Jiang Zhen's complexion improved a lot. It is estimated that the harvest of the children in the village digging ditches this summer will be much less than in previous years.

But at this time, Qingming came, and the people in the Jiang family couldn't bear Jiang Zhen more and more.

Boss Jiang doesn't work every day, but he wants to eat and drink well, why?

After Jiang Zhen left the house this morning, the butcher, Mrs. Jiang, called Jiang Chengcai into their house, and then discussed with Jiang Chengcai how to deal with Jiang Zhen.

Mrs. Jiang now hated Jiang Zhen who was beating and drinking to her all day long. She cursed for a while before saying, "This bastard is not enough to eat eggs. He even snatched away the can of lard at home yesterday." , why doesn't he die?"

When Mrs. Jiang thought of the jar of lard, she felt very distressed. When she got hungry, she scraped up some lard with chopsticks and ate it, but her eldest son snatched the whole jar of lard away... I don’t know what happened now. Has the lard been eaten by him?

"Mom, what's the use of scolding? Let's think about how to deal with him!" Jiang Chengcai said.

"We must teach him a lesson, so that he can work in peace," Jiang old man said.Mrs. Jiang only hated her eldest son blindly, but he has noticed the goodness of this elder son these days.

When his eldest son was willing to do the work in the field, why did he need to work so hard like now?

The three of you talked about each other for a long time, but they couldn't think of any good way at all. In the end, Jiang Chengcai said, "Why don't you let the third one figure out a way? He is the smartest." Both Jiang Chengcai and Jiang Chengxiang He went to study, but Jiang Chengcai learned a lot, but Jiang Chengxiang learned a lot, and later found a job in the county. Gradually, many important matters of the Jiang family were under his control.

"Yes, let Chengxiang help us make up our minds." Jiang Butcher also said, and suddenly remembered something: "We haven't been to the county for a long time, let's go today and get some food for Chengxiang Use it, and then buy candles for ancestor worship."
