80s: The Farmer’s Wife Is The Boss

Chapter 41, unexpected results

 Soon I came to my mountain and found a few plum trees.

However, it’s not that red yet. Even if there is red, it’s all on the sunny side and on the tops of the trees.

Mei Xue got a few pills, and after tasting them, she thought they were okay, better than those sweet things.

“Grandma, please pick them again in a few days. They are too tender to eat now and are very sour.” Mei Xue also threw a few popcorn plums away from her hand.

 It’s really so sour.

The plums were not ripe and I couldn’t eat them, so I had to carry an empty basket back home.

Looking at grandma’s somewhat disappointed expression, Mei Xue knew that grandma was blaming herself, “Grandma, it’s still early, let’s walk slowly. This is my first time to our mountain. Grandma, can you take me for a walk?”

He was helpless. Seeing her grandma blaming herself, Mei Xue felt very sad, and her good impression of her grandma was completely destroyed this time.

How could Grandma He not see through Mei Xue's thoughts, "Good boy, it was Grandma who made you feel wronged." She felt very uncomfortable.

 She never spoke to others on weekdays. She never imagined that she had lost her face for decades just for a few plums.

It’s just a bit of plum that she has resentment towards her sister-in-law. Two days ago, Xilian sent her Xiaoxue some precious jelly. People, it’s incomparable.

"What's wrong with it? Grandma, let's plant some plum trees next to the trees." Mei Xue is also a person who strives for success. She is very used to supporting herself, so she doesn't feel any discomfort.

 It’s just that she didn’t want her grandma to suffer.

“Well, grandma will dig some plum trees for you, and we will have something to eat at home next year.” Grandma He is also a strong person.

So the two of them found a few small plum trees on the mountain and dug them directly back. At this time of year, Grandma He didn't even think about whether the plum trees could be planted after being dug up.

Looking at her movements, I'm afraid she really thought there would be plums to eat next year.

While digging the plum tree, Mei Xue's habit started to trouble her again, and she looked around.

 Soon she made a new discovery.

 “Grandma, look.” She pointed at a low spot on the mountain and shouted softly.

 Because there were some very familiar pheasants there, with shiny coats, which were very eye-catching.

Grandma He looked along Mei Xue's finger and immediately saw the pheasant in the low-lying area, "It's so beautiful."

"Grandma, don't move here. I'll come as soon as I go." Mei Xue was excited.

Even with the backpack on her back, she couldn't stop her pace. Like a gust of wind, she approached the pheasant quickly and silently.

It wasn't until the three or two pheasants fell to the ground that Grandma He realized, "This girl is not afraid of being scratched by those thorns." There was surprise in her eyes and distress in her tone.

After seeing the three pheasants she had shot, Mei Xue immediately shouted to her grandma in a low-lying area: "Grandma, look, I've shot them, I've shot them." Her face was full of excitement, as if she had shot them for the first time.

"I see it, I see it. Slow down, there are thorns there, be careful not to break your hand." Grandma He also carried the basket on her back, and put a few plum trees in the basket.

Each one has a basket height.

The pointed head emerges and flutters in the wind.

“Grandma, don’t come down, I’ll be here right away.” There is no way down the mountain here, and there are thorns everywhere. Mei Xue is worried about her grandma.

Mei Xue moved quickly, put away the pheasant and ran to her grandma, "Look, grandma." She took out the pheasant and showed it to her grandma like a treasure.

Looking at the three plump pheasants, Grandma He's face was filled with smiles, "It's better for me to use Xiaoxue Zhong. These pheasants are very lively. It's usually difficult to catch them. You can hit three of them at once, which is pretty good." "

Xiaoxue told her that she was very strong, and Grandma He also had some knowledge, so she was quite able to accept some of Xiaoxue's abilities.

"This one is for grandma to make soup. Grandma drinks the soup and I eat the meat. This one is for making chili peppers. Grandma likes to eat it, but grandma can't eat too much. The rest is mine..." Mei Xue immediately made arrangements. .

Grandma He was so amused that she couldn't close her mouth. Not only that, the previous gloominess was also dissipated in the joy of getting three pheasants.

"Okay, I'll give it all to you. I won't give it away this time. Come on, let's go home and stew chicken." Grandma He looked doting on her face.

 After returning home, Mei Xue began to boil water, pluck the feathers, and trim the chickens because they had to eat at noon.

 Plus it’s too hot, so it won’t last long.

It might as well be cooked into vegetables and hung in the well, which can last for several days. Besides, how could it be kept for several days with her here?

 If you eat freely, you can get rid of it in one day, but in order not to scare grandma, she should restrain herself a little.

Mei Xue was thinking about it in her mind.

 At noon, the fragrance wafted out of Aunt He's house again.

An Liang, who was more familiar with Mei Xue and Grandma He, was like a cat that saw something fishy. He ran over with a bowl at noon.

 Before, I was afraid of the third grandma, but now, what are I afraid of? The third grandma is very kind.

Mei Xue's meal was just about to be served. Because it was hot at noon, of course, she still had some thoughts in mind, so Mei Xue directly placed the dining table under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

The sweet-scented osmanthus has been hung in flower bags, and the fragrance has already begun to overflow. Sitting under it to eat has a unique flavor.

Seeing the visitor, Grandma He smiled and scolded: "You have a dog's nose." She opened the courtyard door and let An Liang in.

“Third Grandma, what delicious food did my sister-in-law make today? It’s so fragrant that I can smell it at home.” An Liang said he was not afraid, but felt a little bit confused in his heart.

　　"You're already smelling it, and you don't know what to eat yet. Come and sit down quickly." He picked up a piece of chicken from the bowl and put it in his bowl, "Eat it."

Mei Xue brought out the meal from the kitchen and saw An Liang sitting at the table. It was true that Mei Xue accepted An Liang's little brother, but the prerequisite was that he could not compete with her for food.

 She gave them chicken yesterday. Let’s do it again today, hum.

 “What are you doing here?” Mei Xue said with a hint of displeasure in her tone.

Grandma He immediately laughed when she saw Xiaoxue's behavior, "He is a dog and comes here by smell."

An Liang liked this cousin-in-law very much. He saw the displeasure on her face, but he knew in his heart that her sister-in-law definitely didn't really want to see him.

 “Haha, who asked my sister-in-law to make the food so delicious?” An Liang said with a flattering look on his face.

So the lunch for two became a party of three.

When Aunt Mei Lian didn't see her son come back after dinner and came to look for someone, she saw her son there eating so much. It was really embarrassing.

 “You brat, you’ve eaten all the meat of your third grandma, let’s see what compensation you get.” Aunt Mei Lian walked in without any greeting.

An Liang felt a little scared when he saw his mother, "Mom, the third grandma asked me to eat."

Grandma He also put down her chopsticks, "He didn't eat my meat. The old woman's meat was not for him to eat." She said jokingly.

Mei Xue called Aunt Meilian and made room for her to sit down.

 He started to clear the dishes on the table.

   Why is my timing always wrong????????????
