Chapter 286 Xia Chan actually feels quite insecure
Seeing how Xiao Yunfan cared so much about her and was so serious, Xia Chan felt a warm feeling in her heart, "It's okay to have such a small wound. It doesn't hurt."
"You don't feel pain, I feel sorry for you." Xiao Yunfan reached out and scratched the tip of Xia Chan's small nose, "My girl should not bear any pain in this world."
Xia Chan looked at him with a smile on her face, it was nice to have someone who felt sorry for her.
Afterwards, the two of them sat on a stone by the stream and chatted. Xiao Yunfan held Xia Chan's hand the whole time, "Xiao Chan, I really hope that time can pass quickly."
"Why?" Xia Chan asked confused.
"This way I can marry you home sooner!" Xiao Yunfan said.
Xia Chan smiled and said, "Don't worry, time will pass in the blink of an eye."
She had always said she would not marry, but after meeting Xiao Yunfan, she began to look forward to their married life. He would definitely not break his promise, right?
The next morning, when Xia Chan got up, she heard her brothers say that there was a bucket of crayfish placed by the courtyard door. She didn't know who put it there. Xia Chan yawned and went to check. There was actually a bucket of crayfish. There should be two. At thirty pounds, Xia Chan felt a burst of sweetness in her heart.
There are few crayfish now. With such a big bucket of crayfish, Xiao Yunfan must have spent a lot of time. Thinking of how hard he worked during the day and helped her catch crayfish at night, Xia Chan felt a little distressed in her heart.
She decided to make crayfish for him to try tonight.
Xia Chan soaked all the vegetables that needed to be cooked for lunch in warm water, then carried a basket on her back and went down the mountain. The men in the team followed the people in the construction team to build houses in full swing, while the women earned work points in the fields. At that time, the work in the fields was not heavy, and the main thing was weeding. Xia Chan went to the mountain to see the growth of cassava, and then took a basket of bamboo shoots home.
Xia Chan didn't go out in the afternoon. She went to the place where she grew vegetables, picked all the vegetables that could be picked, and put them into the space. Then she went to a small stream to clean the crayfish, and when she returned home, she washed them again with well water. , and then took off the lobster tail.
The main reason for not taking it from the small stream is that the water in the small stream will touch the meat in the lobster tail. After all, the water in the small stream is wild water, and no one knows whether the upstream has been contaminated by any animals.
Xia Chan made garlic crayfish, spicy crayfish, fried bamboo shoots with bacon, steamed beans, steamed eggplant, scrambled eggs with leeks, cucumbers, and water spinach with black bean sauce in the evening.
Xia Chan doesn't want to cook so much, but there are a lot of people in the family, and her brothers work so hard every day. If they don't let them eat well, how can they have a good body to work? And she grows a lot of vegetables on the mountain, why not cook them for her brothers to eat?
Before everyone came back to eat, Xia Chan used a large bowl to share a whole bowl of vegetables with Xiao Yunfan, and also put a large bowl of rice in it. She also cut the watermelon soaked in well water in half and left half in the bowl. In the cabinet, the other half was cut horizontally and vertically into eight slices. At night, the eight of them had exactly one slice each.
"I made two flavors of crayfish. One is spicy, and the non-spicy one is garlic. Try it and see if it tastes good." When they came to the stream, Xia Chan took the dinner in the basket. Come out and hand it to Xiao Yunfan.
"Thank you, Xiaochan." If he could come on time, he wouldn't have to waste her time. But during this time, Su Yu was having dinner at their house, so he couldn't come on time and could only see Su Yu going down the mountain. Come again.
Although Su Yu is a nurse in the hospital, he is not familiar with or understand Su Yu. He doesn't know if Su Yu will spread gossip, but he will never allow anyone to affect his relationship with Xia Chan. "It's okay. I have to eat myself, and I didn't cook it specially for you." Cooking is not an easy task, especially cooking so many dishes, so Xia Chan won't stupidly say that she is not tired. Originally, It's quite tiring.
Since you have worked hard, you should let the other person know, otherwise people will think that you cooked the rice yourself. Even if you use a rice cooker to cook, you have to wash the rice first and then press the switch!
"How do you eat this crayfish?" Xiao Yunfan picked up a lobster tail and asked confused. He didn't expect that such a big thing could only have such an edible part.
"It's like eating melon seeds. If you don't know how to crack the meat inside, you can just peel it with your hands. We are used to eating it and don't need to dirty our hands." Xia Chan said with a smile.
Xiao Yunfan put the lobster tail directly into his mouth, and after working hard for a long time, he succeeded in eating the meat. The meat was very firm and elastic, and it was indeed delicious. I didn't expect this thing to be so delicious when made.
After Xiao Yunfan finished his dinner, Xia Chan took out the half of the watermelon and handed it to him, "Eat it directly with a spoon. This is more enjoyable."
"Okay." Xiao Yunfan picked up the spoon, took a spoonful from the middle, and raised it in front of Xia Chan, "Give the first spoonful to Xiaochan."
Xia Chan didn't refuse and just opened her mouth to eat. "It is said that the middle part of watermelon is the sweetest, but I didn't expect it to be true!"
Xiao Yunfan also ate a spoonful of watermelon, with a flash of amazement in his eyes. This watermelon was indeed quite sweet, sweeter than the watermelon he had eaten before. He glanced at the bright-eyed girl in front of him, probably because his sweetheart was beside him. Stay with yourself, so even the air is sweet!
Seeing Xiao Yunfan dig out another spoonful of watermelon and hand it over, Xia Chan's cheeks felt a little hot. She hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth to eat the watermelon.
In the end, the two of them ate half of the watermelon one spoonful at a time. Xia Chan felt that her stomach was full. She stood up with difficulty, rubbed her stomach, and gave Xiao Yunfan a resentful look.
Xiao Yunfan took her hand and walked for a while by the stream, then sent Xia Chan back.
The next day, another bucket of crayfish appeared next to the courtyard gate.
Su Yu and his team went to Yong'an Production Team for four days for free medical treatment, and then went to other production teams. She did not get such good treatment in other production teams because she had no acquaintances, and the conditions in other production teams were completely different. Not as good as Yongan production team.
The weather was good and it didn't rain. The mud bricks we made dried quickly and were ready for use. The two construction teams cooperated with the villagers and supporting teams to build two houses in a few days. The speed was very fast, and the remaining It is left to each family to build the courtyard walls and firewood sheds.
Jin Pengyuan bought the building materials himself before, and now the Xiao family has donated the building materials, so the building materials in Jin Pengyuan's hands can be used to build two houses. Jin Pengyuan decided to build two houses, one as his wedding house, and the other One set was given to Xia Chan. She would get married in the future. This was the confidence given to her by her parents' family. The four brothers did not ask Xia Chan's opinion and directly agreed to the matter.
Zhou Qizhi didn't object. Xia Chan was actually quite insecure. Now that she had two more houses, she must have doubled her sense of security.
