talk about wine

Meng Chuxi stared at her with burning eyes, and after a long while laughed softly: "God favored me, let me meet you, Qingwu."

Zhou Qingwu was taken aback for a moment, then pursed his lips and smiled, stretched out his hand and gestured: "It's my favor."

The two looked at each other, and they both looked at each other and smiled for a long time. There was no need to say much about many things, they both knew about them.

Spring has entered the busy season of farming, and the most urgent thing right now is to sow rice seedlings.The fields for the next rice planting must be plowed in advance, the grass roots in the fields must be combed clean, and the water depth in the paddy fields must be quite particular.

They didn't know how to plow the land, so they asked Zhou Shishan to help, and it took three days to plant the grain.After that, weeding and fertilizing was very tiring.

When Meng Chuxi and Zhou Qingwu came back from their busy work, it happened to encounter a rain. Their clothes were wet all the way home, and water beads began to drip down their hair.Huwu has followed them everywhere since he came to this house, but Zhou Qingwu felt sorry for him, so he took the little guy back with his clothes to cover him. His hair was a little damp, but he didn't get wet in the rain.

Meng Chuxi hurried in to find a towel, but found that the little girl was gone, only Wuwu yelled at the rain outside, wagging her tail.

But she soon heard the sound of firewood breaking from the kitchen, and it turned out that it had entered the kitchen.Meng Chuxi went in and took the towel and pulled up the little girl who was making a fire. His men wiped her hair vigorously, and pushed the little girl into the room while urging: "Hurry up and change clothes, I'll catch a cold later."

Zhou Qingwu was trapped in her arms and covered his head, so he could only be taken back obediently by her. After reaching out to take the towel, Zhou Qingwu hurriedly gestured: Your clothes are all soaked, you go and change them.

Meng Chuxi saw that she was in a hurry and couldn't screw her up. No one could change after such a toss, so he took the clothes from the cabinet and handed them to Zhou Qingwu: "Don't grab it, we all changed. Although the spring has become warmer, the spring rain is still cold. of."

She had planned to take a towel to dry her hair and change clothes, but the little girl was anxious to boil water for her to take a bath.

They are all girls, so there is no need to hide too much. Meng Chuxi took off her outer shirt while talking. The rain is not light, and although the middle clothes are not soaked, they are still wet and damp, and they need to be changed.

Seeing that she was about to untie her middle coat next, Zhou Qingwu blushed, and then she saw Meng Chuxi untie the tie around her waist, and the skirt immediately loosened.

Caught off guard and too late to cover it up, Zhou Qingwu, who turned around and was at a loss, picked up his clothes and went to the bathing place in the bedroom separated by a cloth curtain.

As soon as Meng Chuxi lowered her head, she realized that a shadow beside her disappeared in a flash, and the little girl beside her disappeared. Only Wuwu ran quickly and stood under the curtain, only showing its little buttocks and wagging its tail happily.

At this time, she only undid two laces in her hand, and the skirt of the clothes spread out, revealing a slender neck and a piece of fair skin at the lock.

Meng Chuxi was stunned for a while and realized that Zhou Qingwu had hid behind the curtain, and the thin shadow was reflected through the flimsy linen cloth, she must be shy, even the shadow was shy.

Thinking of this, Meng Chuxi laughed in a low voice, leaned a few steps over there and teased through the curtain: "What's the matter, my sister is just changing clothes with you, you are so shy."

Over there, Zhou Qingwu couldn't speak again, so he could only stretch out his hand to make gestures: You change your clothes quickly, I will change too.

It could be seen from this gesture that the little girl was extremely embarrassed, Meng Chuxi smiled and changed her wet clothes.In fact, the curtain can't block anything, and the little girl's shadow is clearly visible. In the past, they would consciously avoid it when washing and washing, and they didn't find anything unusual, but now, Meng Chuxi can see clearly.

Zhou Qingwu is 16 years old. Under the feeding of Meng Chuxi, she has really changed a lot. The bean sprouts that were shriveled in the past have begun to grow vigorously. What has changed with her height is the young and exquisite curve that belongs to a girl. The graceful waistline, the slender straight legs and the upward rounded arc... probably thought of her as a little girl all the time. Meng Chuxi, who caught a glimpse of her at this moment, was pleased, but also looked away uncomfortably, with a slight smile on her face. hot.

Turning her head and hurriedly changing her clothes, she said something to boil water and left.On the way to the kitchen, Meng Chuxi laughed unconsciously again, um, her little girl has grown up, she is so cute and capable, she must fascinate many people.

Unconsciously, her thoughts drifted to Zhou Qingwu again, such a good little girl, who can make her feel at ease and hand her over to the other party in the future.His brows furrowed unconsciously. In this day and age, when a woman gets married, she almost gives her life to others. Zhou Qingwu can't speak, and it's hard not to be bullied. The firewood was snapped with a bang, and the hand hurt from the shock.

The pain made her calm down a little, and Meng Chuxi sighed again. Zhou Qingwu, who happened to come in, heard her sigh, and hurried over to ask: Why are you sighing?

Not wanting to bring this ugly topic to Zhou Qingwu, Meng Chuxi smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, I'm just tired."

Zhou Qingwu was a little worried, and stretched out his hand for her to rub: Take a rest tomorrow.

Meng Chuxi nodded: "Okay, go up the mountain tomorrow to pick thorn buds, okay?"

Zhou Qingwu nodded with a smile. After taking a hot bath, Meng Chuxi took the time to go to the silkworm room. The silkworm eggs laid out in the house had begun to turn black and shiny. There were charcoal basins placed in the four corners of the house. Take the cooked carbon to raise the temperature, and wait until the silkworm eggs are ready to pick mulberry leaves to feed.

Meng Chuxi purposely pounded the grass on the bottom bed of the silkworm seeds until it was soft, and it was the best for raising silkworms.

Zhou Qingwu had never raised silkworms before, so he was quite curious about everything. Sometimes Meng Chuxi would talk to her about the secrets of raising silkworms and picking mulberries when he looked at these little things, just like now Meng Chuxi pointed at the silkworm eggs that were about to produce silkworms, He talked about how to feed the silkworms after they were born, and how to sweep them so as not to hurt the silkworms.

Usually, when people talk about things they are familiar with, most of them are fluent and smooth, and their eyes will not unconsciously fall on the person she wants to share with, but Zhou Qingwu is keenly aware that Meng Chuxi will frown from time to time, and then there is a hint of thought in his eyes , and wouldn't keep looking at her while talking, which was very different from usual.It's like, it's like trying to retell something from memory.

Zhou Qingwu realized that these memories belonging to Meng Chuxi's past were recovering, but they were still a little strange to Meng Chuxi, so after she described it like this, it seemed that these memories belonged to her completely.Maybe it is really like what Meng Chuxi said, her family is quite proficient in planting mulberry and silkworms, which is why Meng Chuxi knows so much.

Feeling lost and relieved for a while, but I have to say that she is more sad than happy, she is afraid of losing Meng Chuxi's feeling.

After finishing speaking, Meng Chuxi's eyes brightened: "Now we have so few mulberry trees that can only raise so many silkworms. If it succeeds, then what I know is true. When we have more money, we will buy land to plant mulberry trees. Raise more silkworms."

Zhou Qingwu's eyes were full of trust and a little joy. She especially liked Meng Chuxi's plans, because she included herself in her plans, which was a great happiness to her.

Meng Chuxi over there said and suddenly groaned and shook her head: "Silkworm raising is too hard, I can't let you be so tired with me. By the way, we can sell mulberry leaves. After planting a mulberry garden, teach them how to raise silkworms and provide mulberry leaves. Leaves and silkworm eggs, or contract them to raise them, and we collect the silk."

This idea is indeed very good. If Jiangyin can be turned into a land of silkworms and a hometown of mulberry and hemp, Meng Chuxi's idea will undoubtedly be a big business opportunity.After hearing this, Zhou Qingwu's eyes were full of smiles, and he stretched out his thumbs to express his appreciation for her thoughts. Those dark and smart eyes were full of starlight, and he made no secret of his admiration and happiness, which made Meng Chuxi feel a little embarrassed.

"I'm just talking about it. The mulberry garden needs a lot of money, and we can't do it alone if we want to drive them to raise silkworms. This business is indispensable because of the right time, place and people."

Zhou Qingwu nodded and gestured: I know, but it's really great.Let's save money first. If we have this opportunity, we need capital. For now, we can rest assured and save money with peace of mind.

Because the time has not come, they don't need to plan immediately, but they must be prepared.

Meng Chuxi smiled happily. She leaned over and stared at Zhou Qingwu, and said, "What should I do? My Qingwu is so smart, you've already thought of everything I want to say."

Zhou Qingwu was ashamed by her compliment, stretched out his hand and gave her a slight push, turned around and left, um, with a smile on his face.

March is the peak season for thatch mushrooms on the mountain, and there will be more of them after the rain. This is another great opportunity for Zhou Qingwu and the others.Picking mushrooms in the morning and inspecting the fields in the afternoon, there was no delay in the two, but he was a little tired. Zhou Qingwu was a little worried that Meng Chuxi was exhausted.

But as always, Meng Chuxi never complained that she was tired while working. At most, she asked the little girl who loved her to knead her muscles and bones. She knew how to make the little girl feel at ease, and she also knew how to love this lovely girl.

Before that, Meng Chuxi had figured out the location of several thorny old buds. When he went up the mountain, he found that although some of them were almost old, and the spores had spread out and grown leaves, most of them were still young.

The trunk of the thorny old bud is not beautiful at all, the trunk without branches is dingy and full of scary thorns, but the new buds in spring are very attractive.The red and green shoots stretch out from the outer skin, so fresh and tender that one can't help but want to do it.

The two of them broke off those young leaves and buds along the way. There are still a lot of them growing on this mountain, and they filled half of the basket in a while, which is enough to eat.And besides stabbing old buds, Meng Chuxi also encountered a toon tree.

Toon Zhou Qingwu knew about it, and was a little surprised at the moment. Meng Chuxi saw that she had encountered a familiar wild vegetable, and asked her to pick it by herself, and said on the side: "I can make toon eggs when I go back. I still have some eggs bought at home."

Zhou Qingwu pinched his hand and nodded to Meng Chuxi.And Wuwu, who followed, was having fun in the mountains, chewing and spitting out its curious grass in its mouth, having a great time playing.

This Chinese toon is also a rare wild vegetable. Anyone who encounters a Chinese toon tree on the mountain will dig the tree home and plant it. Except for the tall and unfruitful ones, Chinese toon trees are rare.It was found that this was also an unexpected receipt.Toon fried eggs, this delicious, tsk, is also a delicious delicacy in spring.

Besides these two things, they also picked a lot of thatch mushrooms and some wild fungi.I have already relieved my hunger before, so these fungi will be sold.

In the afternoon, the two of them will go to the fields to see the water and tidy up the ridges.This is a good lunch before physical labor.No, the dishes Meng Chuxi prepared at noon were richer. A few wild mushrooms made cabbage soup, and the other main dish was stir-fried bacon with prickly old sprouts.

During the Chinese New Year, the bacon is specially smoked with fireworks made of cypress leaves, and the smoked bacon made after adding salt has never been opened.The long strips of bacon have been smoked red, black and shiny, and the smoky and salty aroma comes out as soon as it is taken off, which is very attractive.

Cut off a section to reveal the color of the meat inside. The lean meat is brownish red and shiny, and the fat meat is shiny with oil. It can be seen that the smoked meat is very good.

Scrape and clean the black dirt on the outside, and the color is beautiful after cutting into thin slices.Take a sniff, the smoky salty aroma is unique, and this unique color and aroma are difficult to give to fresh meat.

Put the old buds in the pot over the water, cut into sections and drain well.Add minced garlic to the hot oil, and the aroma will come out immediately. Then slide the bacon and bacon into the pot. The bacon is fat and thin, and the excess fat bursts out in the pot. People smell it appetizing.

The thorny old bud itself is a bit bitter, and the bitterness becomes lighter after draining, coupled with the immersion of bacon fat, its own fragrance, crispness and tenderness are more highlighted, and the bitterness is further neutralized after being endowed with the salty aroma of bacon.

When the meal was ready, Meng Chuxi brought some food for Zhou Qingwu. The little girl smiled and tasted the thorny old buds she had never eaten before. The crisp and tender feeling was not damaged by the heat at all, and the salty taste completely given by the bacon was blended with its taste. After that, it became more and more delicious.

The salty taste of the smoked meat is not unbearable after soaking. Instead, a mouthful of rice is filled with salty aroma.

Following Meng Chuxi, Zhou Qingwu really ate a lot of food that she had never imagined before.This is the first time she has tasted smoked bacon in more than three years. The pleasure of this taste bud directly penetrates into the heart, bringing infinite satisfaction.

A plate of fried bacon with spiny dragon buds makes the simple courtyard more full of life.Wuwu was so greedy that he salivated, squatting on the ground and wagging his tail happily, his front paws kept moving on the ground, Wuwu begged the two masters to give it a taste.

Smoked meat is salty, and dogs tend to lose hair if they eat too much, and it will increase the burden on the kidneys.If you don't pay attention to the dogs in the village, they eat with people, and the leftovers must be eaten by pigs and dogs.But Meng Chuxi knew a little bit, and was very careful. He never gave too much salt to the dog, but today he saw that he was very greedy. After putting mixed grains and rice in the dog bowl, he put a piece of meat in it.

Wuwu obviously liked it very much, so he ate it in two bites, and started a new round of begging.

Zhou Qingwu couldn't bear to see it's pitiful and flattering appearance with its wet eyes the most, so he couldn't help but give it to it after eating.Meng Chuxi couldn't bear the sight of this little guy interrupting Zhou Qingwu's meal, so he put down the bowl and chopsticks and carried him away: "Don't pretend to be pitiful to disturb her meal, I'll go and pretend to be a glutton for you."

When Zhou Qingwu heard this, he couldn't stop the smile on his face. Over there, Meng Chuxi filled Wuwu with sweet potatoes and other miscellaneous grains, and put a little rice soup to feed it.Zhou Qingwu hurriedly greeted her: You eat.

Meng Chuxi waved his hand: "I'm full, eat slowly, don't pay attention to this little rascal." No, what Meng Chuxi gave to it was not as delicious as what Zhou Qingwu was eating, after a few mouthfuls it came over to act cute and pretend to be pitiful .

Seeing Meng Chuxi reached out and flicked it, Zhou Qingwu burst out laughing: You are still competing with it.

Meng Chuxi glanced at her slightly: "You spoil it too much, and you have to train it well in the future, but you can't be greedy like rhubarb and eat everything."

Zhou Qingwu ate his meal, suppressed a smile in his eyes, and nodded repeatedly.In fact, Meng Chuxi dotes on her even more. Although she also likes to flick her head, thinking about it, she is a little unhappy, so why not flick her?
