80s: The Farmer’s Wife Is The Boss

 Chapter 8, my own land

I have to say that, with their own thoughts, the two of them got along very happily.

 After dinner, Mei Xue asked her grandma to take a nap in the house and then go to the fields in the afternoon.

The fields were just cleaned up yesterday, and today I still have to go to the fields to weed and pick some cooked vegetables.

Grandma said something about this last night, and Mei Xue remembered it all.

This family did not let her go hungry. Grandma He gave her a family love she had never had before, which Mei Xue cherished very much.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiaoxue. After cleaning up, you can go and take a nap. Put the meat in the well behind and cover it with a washbasin to prevent it from being picked up by the cat."

Grandma He looked happy. She was finally enjoying a blessing. Even if she was her granddaughter-in-law, this blessing also came to her. How could she be unhappy?

"Okay grandma, I'll go right away." She was just thinking that the meat would go bad if she didn't take it out, but before she realized it, grandma taught herself how to put the meat in.

"Well, remember to put some salt on the meat." I'm old, I'd better wait until I fall asleep to boil the oil.

Meixue took note of what grandma said, cleared the dining table, and put the meat away.

 Go to the well in the yard and wash the clothes the two of them had soaked in.

 When she came to the well, she found that the clothes she had soaked in this morning were missing.

 And not far ahead, aren’t those hanging on the fence exactly your own clothes?

Meixue quickly walked over and took a look. It was clean and smelled of fragrance.

  She knew it was the smell of soap.

 “It’s great to have a grandma.” Touching her clothes, Mei Xue stood in the sun, smiling happily.

Since the clothes were dried, she went back to take a rest. This day really made her excited and happy.

 After returning to her room, Mei Xue took the time to close her eyes and rest.

In the afternoon, Grandma He took Mei Xue for a walk in the fields. After seeing that the rice in the fields was increasing, she turned back and went to the vegetable field she opened.

What you can see in the vegetable field is rows of tall wooden sticks standing there, all covered with vegetable vines.

Mei Xue took a closer look and saw that she recognized many of them, but she had never eaten them.

“Grandma, are these long beans?” Long beans, also known as cowpeas, are hung one by one on wooden sticks and are green in color. As they get closer, the fragrance of cowpeas reaches Mei Xue’s nose.

  She found that her five senses had become much sharper after arriving here. She could smell anything, just like a dog.

"You are just greedy. If you like to eat, we will pick some back later. But they are still a little tender to eat now. In a few days, the cowpea soup will be more fragrant."

 The old lady was very happy that her achievements were recognized.

Coupled with Xiaoxue's greedy look on her face, she was even happier: "What we can't finish eating at home can be sold on the street. Can we buy some candies for Xiaoxue then?" the old lady teased Xiaoxue.

Meixue was not polite: "What kind of candy, grandma?"

 Seeing Xiaoxue being tempted by the candy, the old lady smiled even more heartily: "Haha, there are all kinds of candies."

　　Several plots of land have been opened. The old lady is a hard-working and capable person. She usually works alone at home and has to farm, so it is not easy to open such a large vegetable plot.

"Grandma is so kind." Mei Xue hugged Grandma He's arm and acted coquettishly.

The old lady almost fainted, "Let go quickly, let's go see if the corn is ready. If the corn is ready, we can cook some for dinner tonight."

Of course Mei Xue was happy. After two days here, she ate everything she had never eaten before. The taste was so delicious.

 When she heard that there was rice corn, Mei Xue hurriedly stopped making trouble and behaved like a child who got candy.

 Looking at the various vegetables in the field, Mei Xue's stomach that was full at noon began to feel awkward again.

Fortunately, not far away, Grandma He picked a vegetable from the stick.

Meixue didn’t recognize it, but that didn’t stop her from knowing that it was edible.

“Xiaoxue, come and try it. This cucumber is a little tender now, but it’s still edible.” After saying that, he wiped the thorns off his clothes and handed them to Mei Xue.

Mei Xue was not polite at all when she heard the cucumber, she put it in her mouth and bit it.

I have to say, it’s so delicious, so fragrant, so crispy and so delicious.

"Grandma, it's delicious." With a mouthful of cucumber in her mouth, Mei Xue broke off the cucumber inside and handed the other uneaten piece to her mouth: "Grandma, eat it."

Grandparents and grandson ate pink bubbles from a cucumber, and it was so delicious that they kissed each other.

“Haha, it’s delicious.” Why do people in the village pick cucumbers so early to eat? They wait until the cucumbers grow to be thorn-free, so that one cucumber can be made into a large pot of vegetables, enough for a family meal.

Grandma He is not a very generous person, but to be able to treat Mei Xue like this is because she truly treats her as one of her own family members.

 Otherwise, she would scold anyone who walked around her vegetable garden, let alone eating her vegetables.

 Just like she is afraid that others will steal her food.

 While eating, he walked towards the corn field. Corn does not have high requirements on the soil. Grandma He is a person who knows how to plan, so she planted the corn in the innermost part.

Along the way, Mei Xue discovered several kinds of vegetables.

Of course, there are also chili peppers, which she knows.

But it's still a little tender, and you can eat it now, but it has a green taste.

Grandma He ate the cucumber in three or two bites, and broke one off when she came to the cornfield.

Pick open the beard to see if the meat inside is cooked.

“Well, the corn is edible. I’ll sell it at the market in two days. Then I’ll buy some sweets for Xiaoxue.” Grandma He said with a smile.

Her vegetables are growing well this year, and she has grown a lot, so she can sell them at a good price.

 “I’m going to sell vegetables with my grandma.” Mei Xue looked yearning.

"Okay, I'll take you there." Grandma He smiled happily, "Quick, let's eat corn tonight, just break it into ten corns." Ten corns, five corns for each of them, Grandma He thought it was enough.

How could Mei Xue have enough of such a good thing? "Grandma, can you break some more?" She wanted to eat it so much.

It was then that Grandma He realized that her granddaughter-in-law was just a foodie.

“Okay, you can break more if you like, but you have to finish it.” This corn is not very big, five is not enough, Xiaoxue is probably very hungry.

Seeing her like this, Grandma He became worried again: "Xiaoxue, eat slowly, be careful not to burst your stomach. Then you won't have anywhere to cry."

In those few years, I saw many people who ate so much that their stomachs burst.

 Fortunately, life is getting better now, and every household is not unable to afford food.

Meixue was a little confused, "Grandma, I can't bear it." She could eat any amount of food. You must know that her strength was slowly recovering, and the consumption would definitely be much greater than the original amount.

 This is also the reason why Mei Xue was excited when she heard that the original owner’s father had passed away.

 Afraid of exposing yourself.

What else could Grandma He say, but in the end she only picked ten corns.

  Time passed quickly as the fields and fields turned around. After the sun went down, the temperature in the mountains became cooler and cooler, making it very comfortable.

Seeking recommended tickets, seeking collection, signing a contract, hurry up with investment
