"what?"

Feeling the scorching temperature, Xia Qingyu was a little confused.

She paused slightly. The main contract token that she had made to prevent herself from having a poor sense of direction suddenly moved. But why was it so hot?

She activated her special powers to investigate the situation to see if the contractor who had accepted the contract was looking for her.

Before, on the mountain, she remembered that the snake that took her contract token was robbed by a caracal.

The contracted appearance of the manul was its honest and cute original form. Xia Qingyu took a look and found that it was not the little guy.

Before she could carefully identify it, the abnormality on the token contract disappeared instantly, as if it was her hallucination.

Feeling somewhat confused, Xia Qingyu blinked. Could it be that besides that unlucky snake, there were other spiritual creatures that accepted the contract?

She would go to the mountain later to see if she could find it.

"Seventh brother's wife, come and eat potatoes." Lin Lan saw her looking at the distant mountains and called her from the kitchen.

"Coming, coming!" Xia Qingyu withdrew his thoughts and went to the kitchen to eat.

Thinking that there was a lot of wood ash on the potatoes, she turned around and took an old bamboo dustpan.

The yard was not far from the kitchen, and the light was a little hot, so Li Yanchuan went into the house and took out a few long benches and placed them where the sun couldn't reach.

Entering the kitchen, Xia Qingyu saw Zhu Ping'an squatting beside the stove, holding a pair of tongs with his head lowered, turning out the potatoes buried in the stove ashes one by one.

After standing aside and waiting for her to dig out all the potatoes, Xia Qingyu bent down and put all the cooked potatoes into the scoop.

Walking into the yard, she turned the mouth of the dustpan towards herself and tilted it a bit, letting all the potatoes roll to the bottom of the dustpan.

Then hold the dustpan with both hands and shake it back and forth like sifting chaff.

Shen Qingqing and others nearby followed Xia Qingyu's gaze and watched the potatoes jumping around in the bamboo dustpan.

"Aunt Qi, is this really delicious? It looks so gray." Tuantuan followed and asked.

The two siblings were picked up from their grandmother's house by their parents when they passed by Wangjia Village while moving today. They did not get to eat the potatoes that they had eaten before.

"Tuantuan, you are the only one who talks too much. Just wait, you will know in a while." Zhu Ping'an said with a smile.

This daughter of hers has so many questions in her mind and is always extremely curious.

"My uncle said that we should not be ashamed to ask questions, hehe..." Tuantuan smiled at her mother and stuck out her tongue mischievously.

Looking at the cute appearance of the little guy, Xia Qingyu smiled slightly.

"The surface of the potatoes is covered with ash from burning wood. When they are just taken out, they look a little gray at first glance. This is normal."

“If there is no ash on top, the potato skins will be burnt by the red charcoal that just fell, and the exposed skins will be pitch black. When you peel them with your hands, your hands will also be stained black.

Moreover, the outside looks like charcoal, and you think the potato is cooked, but in fact the inside is still raw, and the skin doesn’t feel like rice crust.”

As he spoke, Xia Qingyu did not stop, using the bamboo dustpan and the strength of his hands to sift out as much dust as possible from the potatoes.

She controlled her strength well, very gently, and not too violently.

Otherwise, if you use too much force, the potato skin will easily fall off. Not only will the delicious crispy potato skin be reduced, but it will also be easily sticky with dust and look a bit rotten.

After removing most of the wood ash from the potatoes, Xia Qingyu and the others each ate one. Although it was a little hot, it did not affect their eagerness to eat.

The potatoes were not small, each one was bigger than an egg, and Xia Qingyu couldn't hold them with one hand.

She picked one up with her right hand and patted her hands together to ease the hot touch. When she patted the potato, she could clearly feel that it was a little soft.

Xia Qingyu put her right index finger and thumb together, started from the tip of the potato, and with the tips of her two thumbs, she lightly pinched the silver-gray potato skin and easily opened a small hole.

Following this opening, Xia Qingyu lifted the thin outermost layer of the potato's skin. With each piece she peeled off, more of the potato's golden skin was revealed.

The residual warmth left by the stove ash seeps through the inconspicuous gray skin and gives the potatoes a golden coat.

Wrap it tightly, cast magic on every part, leaving marks of fire.

The hot water coming out of the potatoes kissed Xia Qingyu's fingertips with passion.

The moment the grayish-white potato skin was peeled off, the tempting sweet fragrance followed the hot air and was smelled by everyone.

The sweet fragrance is full of passion and spiciness, just like its own scalding heat. Before you bite into your mouth, the sweetness begins to tease everyone's taste buds.

After peeling off the top skin, Xia Qingyu couldn't wait, so she blew it gently, pinched it with her hand, and pulled it slightly. She pulled off the steaming crispy skin and put it into her mouth.

Squinting her eyes in satisfaction, Xia Qingyu opened her mouth and took a bite. The soft, sweet flavor floated and rolled on the tip of her tongue.

"Wow! It's so hot! Phew..." Yuanyuan just took a bite and it was so hot that she jumped and turned in circles on the ground.

His actions made the crowd burst into laughter.

Lin Lan, who was eating the potato, was also scalded and shook the potato back and forth in her hand.

Zhu Ping'an and Old Mrs. Li each broke half a potato for the two siblings, and smiled and told them not to worry.

Tuantuan was waiting for her potatoes to cool down for a while. She didn't want to be like her brother, jumping up and down in the heat.

Looking at Xia Qingyu who was squinting her eyes with satisfaction, Tuantuan's saliva was almost flowing out.

Seeing that she was very greedy, Xia Qingyu pinched a small piece of skin and handed it to the little girl, "Don't be afraid, this one is not that hot."

After tasting it, Tuantuan's eyes widened and he praised in surprise, "As expected of Aunt Qi, your skin is so delicious."

"Haha, it's not your seventh aunt's skin, it's potato skin." Lin Lan was amused and couldn't help but correct Tuantuan's words.

"It was gray before, but now it smells so sweet." Tuantuan also imitated Xia Qingyu, squinting his eyes to enjoy the delicious taste.

"Well, you can't judge based on their appearance. Just like the Imperata root you tasted today, it looks like a grass root, but it tastes sweet after you peel it."

Hearing this, Mr. Li nodded and said, "It's just like people. You can't just look at the surface. Some people are not the same inside and outside. They look beautiful and bright, but you don't know what they are like inside."

"Grandpa, I understand this. Cousin Apple and Cousin Chestnut are just that kind of people. They are so well behaved in front of grandma and grandpa.

He secretly stole things with other people, and this morning he called Aunt Qi a jinx, and my brother and I beat him until he cried. "

As soon as Tuantuan said this, Xia Qingyu felt the atmosphere around him become quiet.

She used her special powers to take a look and found no injuries on the two siblings, which meant they did not suffer any harm during the fight.

Mr. Li and Mrs. Li looked at each other and sighed softly.

At that time, something unexpected happened in the family. Old Mrs. Li and her daughters-in-law could not control their emotions. Their eyes were red and they cried all day long.

The fifth son, Li Yanxin, believed his son. When he saw the adults crying, he was also frightened and started crying.

Although the dolls are small, they can clearly feel the emotions of adults.

The sons discussed with their mother and decided to send their children to their wives' parents' home for a few days while they were going to borrow money.

Noticing that no one was talking, Lin Lan spoke up to break the atmosphere.

Giving a thumbs up to the two little guys, "Our Tuantuan and Yuanyuan are really amazing."

"Good job!" Li Yanchuan had just opened his mouth when he was stepped on by Old Man Li.

"Daddy also told us that Seventh Aunt is a lucky star and knows a lot of things. That's why Grandpa and the others recovered so quickly." As she spoke, Yuanyuan looked at Xia Qingyu, her eyes full of admiration.

"Are you hurt?" Zhu Ping'an showed a worried look on his face when he thought of his nephews and nieces from his mother's side. He pulled his daughter and son over and checked them carefully.

No wonder she felt a little uneasy today and her eyelids were twitching wildly.

Given her sisters-in-law’s personalities, they would probably chase her home and cause a scene and fight.
