80s: The Farmer’s Wife Is The Boss

Chapter 128, Water chestnut (please subscribe)

“It’s okay, just keep it with peace of mind. I’ll repay the favor.” Mei Xue comforted.

This night, Grandma He didn’t fall asleep until the radio stopped playing.

 Grandma He got up late the next day.

 After the gift giving last night, the Anwen family and Mei Xue became closer.

Everyone saw these changes, and soon everyone knew that Anwen had given his third grandma a radio, and everyone was envious of it.

No, just after noon, Anwen ran over again, "Sister-in-law, where is my third grandma?" He didn't see his third grandma as soon as he came in.

"Grandma is taking a nap. She didn't sleep well last night." Mei Xue glanced at Anwen with a bit of resentment, a hint of reproach in her eyes.

Anwen understood his sister-in-law's eyes and touched his nose, "Wouldn't Third Grandma listen to the radio all night?"

 “What do you think?”

　　　What else could Anwen say, but when he thought about coming to see his sister-in-law, he immediately changed the subject: "Sister-in-law, let's go pick water chestnuts."

 “What is water chestnut?” Mei Xue was confused.

"It's delicious. If you don't go there, the villagers will pick it all." It grew in an abandoned field. I heard that it was cultivated by someone before, but that person left the village and never came back. , the field just became empty.

But the water chestnuts inside are very pleasing to the eye. Every time during this season, many people in the village will pick some and bring them back to eat.

“Okay, wait for me.” Of course Mei Xue wanted to go.

 She has no resistance at all to what she eats.

I took a look at my grandma when I entered the house and saw that she was sleeping soundly. Mei Xue did not wake her up, but she locked all the doors here and also locked the door to the courtyard outside. Only she and grandma had the key, so she was not afraid of grandma. Can't get out.

As An Wen said, there were quite a lot of people here. Many people saw Mei Xue arriving and greeted her with a smile.

Mei Xue knows some of them, and some don't, but they all have to be called aunts.

After finding a place with few people, Mei Xue rolled up her trousers and went to the field.

 Before, water chestnuts could be eaten as food, but now, they are eaten as snacks.

 No one picks up too much.

It was the first time she met Mei Xue, so she picked up a big bucket, but it was not the kind of bucket that holds fish, but a small bucket that is usually used at home.

After loading it up, she got on the field stalk and waited for Anwen.

Anwen came up without picking up much, "Sister-in-law, you picked up so much." Looking at the big, black water chestnuts in his sister-in-law's bucket, Anwen really felt that his sister-in-law could do anything.

"Well, let's go back." After Mei Xue went to the field, she broke off one and ate it. The raw one was a little sweet. However, an aunt beside her saw it and said to Mei Xue with a smile, telling her that this was To be cooked.

This interrupted Mei Xue’s idea of ​​eating it raw.

"good."

　　This time it was a full harvest.

 The little life was peaceful like this, and Mei Xue got along well with her grandma and the people in the village.

Even Aunt Yong will smile and call her "Xiao Xue" when she meets Mei Xue.

 Unlike before, she was always said to be estranged from relatives.

However, Mei Xue is a stingy person. She is still thinking about the sins suffered by the original owner, so she ignores Aunt Yong's overtures.

But an accident caused her to interact with a group of boys like He Anwei.

“Hurry, hurry, there are some here.” It turned out that the children in the village were looking for food on the mountains in this golden autumn of October.

 Each one is like a released wolf.

No, there is a pear grove on the other side of the mountain behind Mei Xue's house. It doesn't matter how many fruits there are, but it is also an appetizing fruit for the children.

Meixue also heard what her grandma said and planned to come over to have a look. Unexpectedly, she met a group of little kids from the village.

This mountain does not belong to her family, and she does not intend to go forward when she sees someone like Meixue. She plans to go to the pear tree on the other side to pick some pears and eat them back.

This thing is definitely not as delicious as the one raised in her spiritual spring water, but it's still better than nothing.

Just as she was leaving, Mei Xue saw a snake crawling out of the pear tree. The color of the snake was very similar to the color of the pear tree. You might not be able to spot it if you weren't paying attention.

Looking at the snake's appearance, Mei Xue knew it was a venomous snake.

She wanted to leave, but thinking of the price of the snake, Mei Xue held back and slowly walked towards the group of children.

He Anwei was the leader of this group of children. He was about to climb up the big tree, but unfortunately, he didn't find the snake.

 Slowly at one moment, quickly at another, when Mei Xue saw the snake raising its head, she immediately stepped forward to grab He Anwei's hand and pulled him down from the tree.

 When the people around him saw it, they immediately roared.

Before they could finish shouting, Mei Xue grabbed a snake in her hand and weighed it. It was not light, weighing at least three or four kilograms.

 “Why are you making such a fuss?” Mei Xue looked back domineeringly and glared at the little brat behind her.

Of course He Anwei and the others saw the snake in Mei Xue's hand, and they all took a few steps back in fear.

The snake's head is pointed and it's poisonous without even thinking about it. If you get bitten, you'll know it's poisonous.

 He Anwei broke into a cold sweat.

 “Sister-in-law Anze, thank you.” He is not a ungrateful person.

Mei Xue glanced at He Anwei, but she never expected that he would thank her.

 “The snake belongs to me.” Mei Xue nodded and responded.

"Of course." A group of people nodded quickly. They didn't dare to ask for the snake.

After seeing them recognize each other, Mei Xue had a smile on her face, "What are you doing here?"

“We are picking iron pears here. These iron pears are so sweet.” After seeing Mei Xue’s smile, a group of half-year-old children all breathed a sigh of relief.

 “This is called an iron pear?” Can pears be eaten even if they are made of iron?

He Anwei also came to his senses at this time, put on his shoes and walked forward, "Sister-in-law, this pear has thick skin and is hard, so everyone calls it iron pear, but this pear is sweet. Sister-in-law, do you want to eat it? I'm here Yes, it’s all for you.”

Meixue was originally here to pick pears, but now that she caught a snake in her hand, it was difficult for her to pick pears. Of course she was not polite when He Anze handed the pears to her.

 “Oh, okay.” He took it easily.

“Then you pick slowly, I’ll go back first.” After saying that, Mei Xue turned around and left here.

This snake is much more valuable than pears in Mei Xue's eyes.

It wasn't until they walked away that He Anwei and the others breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh my God, isn't my sister-in-law too scary?"

 “That is, I don’t dare to move in front of her.”

“No, you know, my sister-in-law kicked An Weiwei away with one kick.”

 Everyone made a speech.

He Anwei's face gradually became ugly, "What nonsense are you talking about? Go pick pears quickly."

Mei Xue put the snake in the utility room when she got home. After selling all the snakes last time, this was the first snake she caught.

 I didn’t expect there to be so many snakes in the mountains, it’s great.

 In a blink of an eye, Zhou Wei came again. As soon as An Liang and the others came back, Mei Xue felt as if her home was lively again.
