Become a burden in a period novel

Chapter 63: Chicken Stewed with Chestnuts

"Aunt, look, I've grown taller." Qin Wangshu pulled her trousers to let Aunt Luo see her short trouser legs.

"Yes, he has grown taller." Aunt Luo was very pleased. After all, she had contributed a lot to Qin Wangshu's growth. "I'll let your trouser legs loose tonight. You still need to eat more, otherwise you will definitely get cramps at night."

Aunt Luo still remembers that when her son was growing taller, he not only had cramps, but also became as thin as a bamboo pole. He clearly ate a lot, but just didn't gain any weight.

Qin Wangshu is already fifteen years old, but his height is still the same as that of an eleven or twelve year old. He must have lost a lot of weight. Now that he is growing taller, he has to eat more to make up for it.

"Yeah." As soon as I nodded, Aunt Luo stuffed an egg in my hand.

"Eat it!"

Ever since Qin Wangshu moved into Aunt Luo's house, the eggs in her house have never been left overnight.

Now Qin Wangshu also raises two chickens, which lay at least three eggs every day, and all three eggs are eaten on the same day.

"Thank you, auntie. You can eat too!" Qin Wangshu also helped Aunt Luo to fish out an egg, peeled it and handed it to her.

Aunt Luo knew that Qin Wangshu would not eat if she didn't eat, so she would cook two eggs every morning, one for each of them.

Now seeing Qin Wangshu peeling the eggs and handing them to her, she felt even more that it was better to have a daughter. The brat in her family had never treated her like this before.

After they had breakfast, they each carried a basket and walked up the mountain.

There were also many people walking up the mountain along the way, and Aunt Luo greeted them as she walked.

There is not much work to do in the fields nowadays, and everyone rarely has time to rest. They are all busy with their own housework or looking for things in the mountains.

Aunt Luo's family also dried some vegetables at this time. With Qin Wangshu around, she dried even more this year.

Qin Wangshu learned a lot of skills from Aunt Luo, not only about farming, but also about life.

Now she is learning how to make clothes from Aunt Luo, and plans to make a set of clothes for Qin Jingchu after she gets the fabric.

This is the little girl's wish. She has received so much care from her brother and has always wanted to repay him. Now she has replaced the little girl and has a good impression of this brother who has been working hard to take care of his sister.

I just don’t know if he has seen the letter I wrote, and what his reaction was after seeing it.

"Xie Chengxuan, you're walking too fast, wait for me!"

A woman's voice was heard from behind, but it did not stop the man in front.

He was carrying a large backpack on his back and walking forward with his head half lowered, as if he didn't hear the shouting behind him at all.

Qin Wangshu, who was walking behind, heard the voice and realized that the man walking in front was the protagonist of the book.

It is said that she has never met the male lead since the last time she saw him, which makes Qin Wangshu very relieved. It would be even better if she could not work with the female lead.

"That's the secretary's daughter, her name is Yunxia, ​​she's two years older than you." Aunt Luo introduced Qin Wangshu, "She was helping out at a relative's house in the city and just came back recently."

Qin Wangshu told everyone that she was sixteen, so Yunxia was eighteen years old. The secretary's daughter, she was one of the vicious female characters in the early part of the story.

Qin Wangshu looked curiously at the girl walking in front of them, because they were behind and all they could see was Yunxia's thick and long braid.

It is a hair volume that makes modern people extremely envious!

However, Qin Wangshu was not envious. Although the little girl was a little malnourished, she still had a lot of hair, but it was a little yellow.

Before going to the countryside, she sold the little girl's braids, which saved her money on shampoo.

"You should know the person in front. He's the educated youth who came to the village before." Aunt Luo had no prejudice against the educated youth, but the arrival of these educated youth did make the girls and boys in the team feel uneasy.

"Well, we've met a few times, but we've never talked." Qin Wangshu had no interest in watching the female pair chasing the male protagonist. All her attention was now on the mountain that they were about to reach.

There are abundant plants on the mountain, and she can get more seeds. As for the peanuts and chestnuts that Aunt Luo mentioned before, she had already reserved some from the team leader when the new peanuts came down, and was just waiting for the peanuts to dry.

Peanuts are good things. Not only can they be eaten, but they can also be used to press oil. She said a lot of good things to the team leader and spent some money to get them.

Qin Wangshu will wait for the peanuts to dry and then plant them in her space, so that she can harvest more peanuts.

However, every time she was busy in the space, she missed the convenient modern machines and convenient shopping methods.

"There is a chestnut forest on the mountain. When the chestnuts are ripe, the team will go to harvest them together. They are very filling. I will make you chestnut stewed chicken then." Aunt Luo said, pointing in a direction.

When Qin Wangshu heard about the chicken stewed with chestnuts, he couldn't help but drool. He was really craving for meat!

"Want to eat?" Aunt Luo noticed that Qin Wangshu was swallowing.

"Who doesn't want to eat meat? Auntie, let's go quickly. I have never been to the mountains. You have to tell me about the things in the mountains." Qin Wangshu was not going to continue paying attention to the relationship between the male protagonist and the supporting female character. She was looking forward to going up the mountain.

In fact, there are not many things on the mountain. After all, there are many children going up the mountain almost every day, so there is no way there would be anything left.

Aunt Luo and Qin Wangshu continued to walk up the mountain, while Yang Yunxia in front had already caught up with the male protagonist Xie Chengxuan.

"Xie Chengxuan, you walked too fast. Didn't you hear me calling you?" Yang Yunxia walked to Xie Chengxuan's side and said coquettishly.

"Comrade Yang, I have things to do and don't have time to chat with you." Xie Chengxuan tried hard to suppress his impatience and said calmly.

"What do you want to do? I can help you." Yang Yunxia saw him carrying a backpack. "Do you want to collect firewood? I know where you can find it. I am more familiar with this mountain than you are."

The educated youth had to cook their own meals. There were no coal briquettes in the countryside, so they usually used firewood to cook. Generally speaking, those who carried such a large backpack were going up the mountain to collect firewood.

"No!" Xie Chengxuan didn't want to pay attention to the secretary's daughter. He knew what she meant, but he had no plans to settle down here.

"Then what are you going to do? I am more familiar with the mountain, so let me go with you." Yang Yunxia did not give up.

She was deeply attracted to Xie Zhiqing the first time she saw him. He was tall and handsome, and although a little cold, he was very polite, unlike anyone she had ever met.

Even among the educated youth who went to the countryside with him, none of them could compare to him.

"Comrade Yang, men and women should not touch each other!" Xie Chengxuan avoided Yang Yunxia's approach.

"Oh, it's a new era now, so let's not talk about these old ideas. The educated youth and the fellow villagers are one family, and helping each other is the right thing to do." Yang Yunxia retorted and continued to follow Xie Chengxuan.
