The two searched the bamboo forest for nearly half an hour, and they already had a handful of bamboo fungus in their hands.Probably when the climate and seasons are not the best, there are not many bamboo fungus, but such a handful is enough to make a soup of bamboo fungus and hibiscus.

It was already late when we entered the village. It had just rained, and the village was very humid. The fields beside the road were green, and the fields were full of seedlings, which looked very beautiful.

Meng Chuxi took Zhou Qingwu straight to the field, and the villagers were no longer surprised when they saw them. Since Zhou Qingwu's accident, the villagers seldom talked about the two of them, and the greetings when they met were more sincere.

Although there are still people who are envious and jealous, they will not say anything in front of the two of them.After all, in the eyes of Zhoujia Villagers, it is indeed the little mute who is living the best life.Looking at Zhou Qingwu who looked more and more like her mother, many people couldn't even imagine that the skinny girl before was the bright and lively Zhou Qingwu now.

Although the two of them were not in the village, Aunt Liu was taking care of them. At least Zhou Qingwu was diligent in weeding and fertilizing. The things they planted grew very well.The bean loofah has successfully climbed onto the shelf, and some of them have even grown flower buds.

The small piece of sweet potato has grown vines, and the leaves are green and tender. Meng Chuxi stretched out his hand to straighten the vines. Zhou Qingwu was a little puzzled. Meng Chuxi explained: "In summer, when there is enough rain, the sweet potato vines will grow very fast. Turn them over again. You can make it grow a little slower, and more nutrients will be used to grow sweet potatoes."

After she finished speaking, she reached out and pinched off the tender tips of the side branches of the rattan, held it up and said to Zhou Qingwu: "This sweet potato tip is very tender and can be fried and eaten. It is very delicious. Let's pinch some back to make the vines grow less. "

Zhou Qingwu laughed when he heard the words, and shook his head again. Seeing Meng Chuxi looking at him with some puzzlement, Zhou Qingwu gestured: After I met you, I have never seen anything that could not be eaten.

The rural areas are poor, and the sweet potato vines will naturally not be wasted, but they are all chopped up and boiled to feed pigs. I have never seen anyone eat the sweet potato tip before it grows.

Meng Chuxi also laughed: "There are still many edible ones that I didn't tell you. Here, did you see that pumpkin vine? Its tender tips are also edible, and the taste is better than sweet potato tips. I'll wait until it gets bigger." It’s for you to eat. Also, mulberry leaves can also be eaten, and they are fried in flour and egg liquid. They are crispy and crispy, very delicious.”

Zhou Qingwu was amazed when she heard it, but she was very obedient, and followed Meng Chuxi to pinch a lot of young leaves. After finishing the work in the field, she took a look at the water in the field, and it was fine when the crab hole was blocked.

After returning from the field, the two of them walked on the ridge above the small river. Meng Chuxi's eyes fell on the clumps of green reed-like plants on the river bank. There was joy in her eyes, and she pointed to the area and said to Zhou Qingwu: "Here, you can eat that too, I'll pick some."

Zhou Qingwu followed Meng Chuxi down and looked at the plant in front of her that was about the same height as her. They called it a water candle because the flower spikes that bloomed were like candles.She was a little puzzled, because she really didn't see where this thing could be eaten.The leaves are probably not chewable, and its candle-like flowers are even more inedible.

Meng Chuxi bent down and pulled out the rhizome that grew by the shallow water, revealing a white and tender section in the mud. At this moment, Zhou Qingwu came to his senses and pointed at it: Do you want to eat this place?

Meng Chuxi nodded: "This is called Pucai. The ancients have long recorded that it can be eaten. In the Book of Songs, it is sung that "it is so beautiful, but it is only bamboo shoots and cattail leaves". It's just that eating it is not very popular in some places. It’s a pretty good dish, and it’s delicious in every way.”

Zhou Qingwu also read the Book of Songs, but he didn't understand it when he was young, and he didn't think that Pucai is a water candle.She was a little annoyed: she didn't read the book well.

Meng Chuxi patted her head: "I don't blame you. You were young at that time, and it was hard to remember those things after encountering so many things. Now I still have time, so I can read more books from Uncle Zhong."

Zhou Qingwu nodded, and helped pull them out together.Cut off the top part and leave only the tender white part.

Because it was going to be taken back, Meng Chuxi immediately peeled off the outer layer on the spot, leaving only the fresh core inside, and then took a bundle of cattail leaves and put them in the basket. After tidying them up, they planned to go back.

Before Meng Chuxi left, she went to see her chili pepper. No one touched it, and it looked very good. It seemed that it was well taken care of.It has already bloomed, and there are a few small peppers hanging on it. Meng Chuxi couldn't help looking at it again and again, then turned to look at Zhou Qingwu and said with a smile: "It grows very well."

Zhou Qingwu sighed helplessly, and gestured: You treasure it, so I will naturally take care of it.

Zhou Qingwu used to be soft and shy at every turn, but now he is much more cheerful.She will also joke with herself, which is what she likes to hear.

But looking at her cute appearance, Meng Chuxi looked around and kissed her on the cheek, and said with a smile, "Thank you Qingwu."

Zhou Qingwu never thought that Meng Chuxi would kiss him in broad daylight, he looked around in a panic, his face was blushing to the point of bleeding, he gave Meng Chuxi an angry look, turned his head and left, Meng Chuxi chased after him with a whining smile.

The two came and left leisurely, and those who saw them couldn't help sighing, "The two of them are really envious of others now, but it's a pity that they are not young and haven't married yet. No way, they are really happy."

"There are gains and losses, but I think when their lives are better, there will always be people who don't care about those rumors that they married Zhou Qingwu. After all, she looks really good. I didn't think that girl was beautiful before. Now she is being raised by Meng Chuxi. But she's pretty, and besides, she's quick to do things, so it's not a good thing to marry back home."

Others nodded their heads, that's the reason.

Zhou Qingwu didn't know that someone was taking care of them. After returning from the village, Meng Chuxi bought a chicken on purpose.It was too late to eat at noon. After the two of them cleaned and dried the bamboo fungus, Zhou Qingwu went to kill the chicken, while Meng Chuxi went to cook.

It happened that there was no food at home. Meng Chuxi looked at the ingredients brought back. There were a lot of cattail vegetables. Finally, he made a stir-fried sweet potato tip, and then made cattail vegetables and eggs. There were meat and vegetables with balanced nutrition. As for the bamboo fungus and hibiscus soup, save it until night It's best to drink.

Cut cattail vegetables into thin slices and mix well with eggs, spread them out, fry them until golden, roll them up, cut them into sections with a spatula, and put them on a plate, it looks good and delicious.

As for the sweet potato tip, it is very tender in this season. Add minced garlic and fry until fragrant, then pour it into hot oil.Both dishes were very simple, so after Zhou Qingwu cleaned up the chicken, the food was already cooked.

Now that the conditions at home have improved, the rice they eat is no longer bean rice. It is still mixed with coarse grains, but some rice can be put in, and occasionally they will eat white rice.

After washing her hands and setting the food on the table, Meng Chuxi handed her the chopsticks and picked up an egg roll for her.

"I fried it with cattail cabbage. You can eat it. The sweet potato tip is also delicious. You should like it."

Zhou Qingwu picked it up and took a bite. The cattail in the omelette was not covered by the egg. It was fragrant and smooth in the mouth. The core of the cattail was very tender. The softness of the egg highlighted the crispness of the cattail. It tasted tender and refreshing, it was true. tasty.

Zhou Qingwu opened his eyes wide and took another bite.Zhou Qingwu is very delicate when eating, but as long as he eats a little too much, his cheeks will bulge up, which is very cute.

Meng Chuxi laughed lowly, picked another piece for her, and put the sweet potato tip into her bowl: "Try this again."

The tip of the sweet potato is very tender and has no old tendons. It becomes soft after stir-frying. The color is green and attractive. The soup is also green, which dyes the rice light green.Pick it up and bite it down, it's a bit like Donghan vegetable, smooth and refreshing, the aroma of garlic is tempting, and after chewing, the faint fragrance of the sweet potato tip lingers in the mouth, which is much better than the green vegetables she usually eats.

She looked regretful and shook her head: I missed a lot of food.

Meng Chuxi smiled warmly: "It's not that I missed a lot of food, but with me in the future, I can try many new things."

Zhou Qingwu nodded again and again, expressing his meaning quite seriously: what you eat is secondary, the important thing is to have you.

Meng Chuxi's heart moved slightly, she looked at Zhou Qingwu and said, "Has Qingwu learned how to talk about love?"

Zhou Qingwu was obviously taken aback, but after thinking about it, he blushed and didn't dare to look at Meng Chuxi, and he gestured awkwardly after a while: Is it true or not...love words.

It seemed that she was shy to draw out these two words, so she made a vague gesture and buried her head in eating.

A simple omelette with cattail vegetables and fried sweet potato tips are delicious for two people.Meng Chuxi thought about what Tong Shuo said that day, she hadn't had time to tell Zhou Qingwu, so after thinking about it, she held back and gave her a surprise.When this month is over, the monthly money will be given to her together with the reward money, and then their piggy bank will be changed to a bigger one.

After the meal, Meng Chuxi checked the wine-making jar. The mouth of the jar had been sealed, and the crackling sound could be heard inside, which subtly indicated that the fermentation had started.Move the jar to a place with a suitable temperature. Although the weather has turned hot now, the actual temperature is still not enough. Meng Chuxi surrounded the jar with straw to make it warmer, clapped his hands and said: "I hope it will succeed, otherwise a lot of sugar will be wasted gone."

Zhou Qingwu, who was packing up his things, laughed when he heard this, and waved at her, indicating that it's okay.

In the afternoon, it was more of a rest, but Zhou Qingwu couldn't take it easy, so he took out his needle and thread to do it there again.Meng Chuxi sorted out the herbs and flowers planted in the yard. Seeing her making clothes there again, she couldn't help but ask, "Why are you still doing it? Didn't you finish the previous one?"

Zhou Qingwu reached out and touched her clothes, and told her: Summer is coming soon, your clothes are thick, I will make thin ones for you.

Meng Chuxi was helpless: "Most of the clothes in the closet are now my clothes. You made two for me in spring, and now you make them for summer. You don't even care about your own clothes."

Zhou Qingwu pursed his lips and smiled: You have to be decent when dealing with guests, I'm enough to wear it.

Meng Chuxi frowned in disapproval. There is no girl who does not love beauty. She said solemnly: "You are my sister. You just dress me well, and outsiders think I treat you badly and treat you harshly. Besides, Qingwu looks better without clothes." , what if I see something else that looks good in clothes, what should I do?"

Zhou Qingwu was stunned, stopped moving his hands and just looked at Meng Chuxi like this, his big eyes were full of grievances with his lips pursed, as if he was about to cry.

Meng Chuxi panicked, quickly put aside her thoughts of teasing her, and said anxiously: "I am teasing you, you look good in anything you wear, I won't fall in love with others, I am talking nonsense."

Zhou Qingwu lowered his head and was a little dull. Meng Chuxi was so regretful that he wanted to slap himself. Zhou Qingwu was very sensitive to the relationship between them, so he shouldn't make fun of it when he was fine.

She hurriedly stood up and knelt down in front of Zhou Qingwu. She was about to apologize to coax her, but she saw the little girl's body trembling slightly, and the corners of her mouth were obviously dimpled. Aggrieved.

Meng Chuxi was almost laughed out of anger, but there was nothing she could do. It was much better for her to tease herself on purpose than to be really sad.

But she still didn't want to let her go, so Meng Chuxi reached out and took the clothes off her arms, looked at her seriously, and when she saw that the little girl was a little at a loss, she scratched her waist: "You have turned bad, you dare to tease my sister .”

Zhou Qingwu's waist was very sensitive, and he laughed when he was scratched. He twisted his waist and wanted to hide, but he was blocked by Meng Chuxi while sitting on the chair, so he could only hide back again and again, laughing uncontrollably.

Really couldn't bear it and wanted to beg for mercy, but couldn't say it, Zhou Qingwu had no way to retreat, so he could only slam into Meng Chuxi's arms, hugged her tightly, and groaned as if begging for mercy.

Meng Chuxi stopped when she bumped into her arms and hugged her. The little girl was bullied and gasping for breath, her cheeks flushed with laughter.Meng Chuxi led her to stand up, the person in her arms was tickled and laughed so tears, with thin sweat on her forehead, she was very bright and charming in the sun at the moment, when she looked up at her like this, her eyes were bright and moving.

Looking down, the light-colored red lips pursed unconsciously, which made Meng Chuxi think of the taste he had tasted last night, and his throat slid down.

Meng Chuxi's thoughts were floating, but she didn't know how enthusiastic her eyes were in Zhou Qingwu's eyes at this moment. The blush from the playfulness was replaced by embarrassment.

One is affectionate and the other is intentional. This kind of staring is hard to control. Meng Chuxi couldn't hold back and lowered his head slightly. Zhou Qingwu closed his eyes and raised his head to meet him. Kissing is addictive.

Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, the figures of the two people were mottled, and their slender bodies were getting close to each other little by little, and their ambiguous voices echoed in the courtyard.

Such a kiss, the clothes are not in the mood, Zhou Qingwu didn't dare to think that he and Meng Chuxi were so intimate and entangled in broad daylight, the feeling between the lips and tongue lasted for a long time, it was really heart-wrenching.

In order to divert her attention, she hurriedly took out the soaked rice last night and prepared to grind it into rice milk.Meng Chuxi wanted to eat rice cakes, but the rice cakes sold on the street didn't taste good, so Zhou Qingwu planned to make them himself.
