Under the gray sky, the young woman looked at the man at the door of the courtyard with a smile, but did not respond to his words.
She took the dough and stuffed it and warned: "Be careful of the wooden basin at the back."
"The sheep's blood is divided into half for Goudan's family and half for us to fry ourselves."
"Okay, I'll bring it over when you're done."
The rough man understands everything in his heart, and his wife also likes him. He is holding a butcher's knife, and the veins are popping up in his arms.
At the last moment of light, divide the mutton into about two or three kilograms, so that you can eat one piece at a time.
He originally planned to sell it, but his wife got pregnant, so he kept it all.
He carried two or three kilograms of mutton chops and a large bowl of sheep blood to Goudan's house.
Jiang family
Hearing the knock on the door, Jiang Caifu, who was chopping firewood in the yard, immediately came over to open the door. When he saw it was Qin An, he immediately turned sideways to let him in, "Have you eaten? Let's eat together. Where is your wife? Let her come with you."
Qin An shook his head, gave him the thing in his hand, and said in a low voice: "What will your wife eat when she is pregnant?"
When Jiang Caifu came back, he heard from his wife that Qin An's wife was pregnant. He took the mutton with some embarrassment and held the blood in his other hand, "Just eat more meat."
"My wife is pregnant and likes to eat fatty meat, so I buy her fatty meat stew every now and then."
"But my wife-in-law is pregnant and can't eat any more. She feels like vomiting when she eats meat and wants to eat sour fruits. In the middle of winter, my family goes all over the mountains and fields looking for it."
"You can still eat whatever you want."
He turned his head and looked at it, then whispered: "I have a bad temper when I'm pregnant. I can endure it as long as I can. I just had a fight with my mother-in-law today."
"You won't even eat with me now."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was movement in the room, "I have paid so much for this family..."
Regardless of the presence of outsiders, he quickly admitted his mistake and said: "Daughter-in-law, I was wrong. I will buy you shoes tomorrow."
"Who wants your shoes!"
"Okay, okay..."
Jiang Caifu pointed at Qin An and motioned for him to go in. Qin An said "hmm" and turned to go home.
Qin family, kitchen
Su Yan stir-fried the spices and poured water into the pot. The dim surroundings suddenly darkened. She turned around and said, "Sister and Brother Jiang are still having trouble?"
In the afternoon, Goudan's mother came over and sat for a while. She said that Jiang Caifu forgot to bring her needle and thread, and the two exchanged a few words.
"Um."
Qin An rolled up his sleeves, took the spatula, and said in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, I will let you do it from now on."
There was nothing else to put in. Once the soup was boiling, you could put the dumplings in. Su Yan looked dumbfounded, sitting at the door of the stove, warming her hands, and said angrily: "When did you not let me do that?"
He wouldn't let her go at night, but he would let her go every time during the day.
Qin An still insisted: "I will let you in the future. If you are unhappy, just hit me. Don't be bored."
He raised his hand to open the dustpan on the chopping board, and then saw a dozen lamb kidneys inside. His eyes were a little funny, "Daughter-in-law, do you think I'm useless?"
Most men eat kidneys as supplements. His wife bought so many kidneys at once, and he didn’t know if she thought he was useless.
Hearing this, Su Yan was stunned for a moment, then she looked at him and explained: "I didn't ask you to eat it all at once. You can smoke it before eating it."
Qin An stirred it a few times with a spatula, his handsome face flushed a little, "Then am I useful?"
He has always been afraid that he is too old and physically unable to keep up.
If other people in the village knew that he thought this way, they would definitely say that he was insulting.
He is still weak? He can kill someone with one punch.
Su Yan couldn't help but "cough" and glanced outside, fearing that others would hear her, "Don't talk nonsense."
Seeing the rough man staring at her, if she didn't say anything, he kept staring at her.
The rough guy is becoming more and more shameless now, and he asks her all these nasty things.
She lowered her head to light the fire and whispered, "It's useful."
With the way he was tossing about at night, if the moon doesn't sleep and he won't sleep, how can he still be useless?
At this time, Dahuang came in and jumped up to rub against him. The rough man happily took a piece of raw mutton to feed it. Dabai smelled the smell and suddenly rushed in.
Nature also gave it a piece.
"They all have mouths in their mouths. Last time Goudan's mother gave them leftovers to eat, but they didn't even eat them." Su Yan patted the residue on her body.
It's not that I don't want to part with them, I'm just afraid that they will eat them. If they are not at home in the future, others will definitely not be able to feed them meat all the time.
So why don't they starve to death?
"Be strong and look after your family."
It was probably boiling, so Qin An put the dumplings in. After they were cooked, the two of them sat at the stove door with the dumplings in hand to eat.
The firelight shone on their faces, giving them a bit of warmth. Su Yan had a few left in the bowl at the end of her meal, and she couldn't eat any of them.
She happily handed it to the rough guy next to her, "Is it enough? If it's not enough, throw it in to cook."
Seeing that she didn't eat much, Qin An frowned slightly, "Are you full?"
Su Yan nodded and said, "Well, I'll have soup and rice at home in the afternoon."
Hearing this, Qin An didn't say anything, took her bowl, poured the soup together, and then finished the remaining dumplings in a few mouthfuls.
After clearing away the dishes and sitting in the room for about a quarter of an hour, Su Yan got up and found some clothes to take a bath. She said to the man who was sitting by the bed folding clothes, "Mr. sir, help me bring in hot water."
"good."
After a while, Qin An entered the house carrying two buckets of warm water and closed the door immediately.
Su Yan was embarrassed to take a bath in the house before, so Qin An made a wooden board to block it and said in a low voice: "Daughter-in-law, come here."
Although Su Yan was still a little embarrassed, the two of them were not alone. She took off her clothes. It was cold in the room at night and she couldn't help but shiver.
"Mr. Sir, in a few days we will build a bathing room next to it to keep it warm."
"good."
Qin An was afraid that she would be cold, so he didn't dare to delay. He bent down and twisted the wet handkerchief to wipe her back, and let her go to bed within a quarter of an hour.
"Wash it well tomorrow."
There was Mrs. Tang on the bed, and her feet were warm when she stepped into the quilt. Su Yan tucked her back and saw the man taking off his clothes, so she knew that he also wanted to wash.
"Go and warm some hot water."
"enough."
The rough man took off his clothes, revealing his broad shoulders and slightly narrow waist. He turned around slightly and let his wife see him without hesitation.
Su Yan's cheeks turned red, she looked away and covered herself with a quilt and said, "You are becoming less and less shy now."
"Pull the board over."
Seeing the quilt bunched up, he smiled, then wiped his body with a handkerchief and pulled the wooden board across.
I don't know how long it took, but there was a sinking sound beside the bed, and then the woman fell into a "furnace".
The rough man had some stubble on his chin, and when he came closer, it scratched her cheek, which made her feel a little itchy. He said in a low voice: "Wife, are you warm?"
Su Yan's face turned red as she could not, and she grabbed his waist and said, "Stay away from me..."
Naturally, he was thinking about holding his wife in his arms, but Qin An had no plans to do anything because his wife was pregnant with a child.
He rubbed the crook of her neck and said hoarsely, "It'll be fine in a moment."
As he spoke, he put his hand on her belly and touched it gently.
He and his wife have a child.
The days are like a dream.
Mr. Bazi said that he will be alone in this life...
No, he has a wife and children.
Feeling more and more at ease, I finally lowered my head and kissed my daughter-in-law in my arms again and again.
"daughter in law."
"Um?"
It was a bit quiet at night, with occasional drops of water dripping from the eaves.
