Female-to-male: I live on farming

After feeding her the brown sugar ginger water, Qin Ke took the empty bowl to the kitchen and exchanged it for a bowl of rice porridge and came back again, saying, "It's not good not to eat. I made some porridge for you to drink."

Lu Youqing was unusually well-behaved at this time, and she did whatever Qin Ke said.

After drinking the porridge, Lu Youqing lay back down again. His stomach felt warmer than at the beginning, and his hands and feet were not as cold as at the beginning.

"Just sleep well. Call me if you need anything. I won't go out today." Qin Ke bent down to tuck the corner of the quilt for her and asked softly, "Is there anything you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

Qin Ke's expression was unusually gentle at this moment. Lu Youqing looked at his eyes full of concentration and worry, and was stunned for a moment. She said softly, "I want to eat the fish you made last time."

Although her face was still a little pale at this moment, she had a charming look in her eyes. Her eyes were clear and a bit seductive. Qin Ke looked down at her and felt his heart was so soft that it was about to bubble up.

"Okay, I'll do it for you."

His voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of doting.

Looking at his back as he slowly closed the door and left, Lu Youqing bit her lip and grasped the corner of the quilt with both hands, pulling it down to her nose. She felt her heart beating so hard that it seemed to jump out of her throat.

Qin Ke went out and got a fishing rod. The fish Lu Youqing was talking about was actually the one Qin Ke happened to see some villagers fishing a while ago, so he bought one and took it home.

He wanted to let Lu Youqing taste something new, so he made sweet and sour fish. Qin Ke then realized that there were no tomatoes in this era. It seemed that after the autumn harvest, when the points were credited to his account, he should start building some vegetable greenhouses.

Due to the limited ingredients, the sweet and sour fish was not as delicious as Qin Ke had imagined, but for someone like Lu Youqing who had only eaten very bland dishes since childhood, it was already extremely amazing.

In ancient times, sweets were almost considered a luxury, and eating desserts can secrete dopamine, so sweets have been very popular since ancient times.

There is no supermarket in the village, so buying fish that time was just a coincidence. If Qin Ke wants to find fish now, he can only go to the river to fish himself. Fortunately, he heard that the water quality of the river in the village is excellent, and there should be a lot of fish in it.

Although he had never fished in his previous life, he had heard that earthworms were the best bait, so his first step was to go to the river to dig earthworms.

When he went out, he happened to run into Li Nanqiao who was coming back from washing clothes.

"Boss, are you going to..."

"My wife said she wanted to eat fish, so I'll go to the river to try my luck." Qin Ke put on his straw hat and said, "After you finish drying the clothes, you don't have to do anything else. Just listen to the noise in the house."

Qin Ke was lucky. In fact, this was also due to the fact that the ancients did not like to eat fish. The fishy smell was difficult to remove, and if you wanted to remove the fishy smell, you had to be willing to use more ingredients.

But ordinary people have problems with food and clothing, so how could they waste so much on this?

Qin Ke not only caught some fish, but he caught a lot of them. He planned to cook one and put the rest in a basin.

When he carried the fish home, Li Nanqiao was sitting on the steps at the door of the room, writing and drawing on the ground with a branch in his hand.

Qin Ke knew without even looking that she was practicing the characters that Lu Youqing taught her. She was reluctant to use paper, so she just used a branch to practice on the ground.

"Boss, you're back!"

"Has the lady ever woken up?"

"No," Li Nanqiao shook his head, staring at the fish in his hand and laughed: "So many fish!"

"Yes, you can put the remaining fish in the basin and keep it there. I will go to cook. You can stay here for lunch today and have a taste of my cooking."

Just as he finished processing the fish, Li Nanqiao popped his head in and asked, "Boss, let me help."

"Okay, can you help steam the rice first?" Qin Ke looked back at her, marinated the cleaned fish in his hands, cut the ginger into shreds, and if there was no cooking wine, he had to use drinking wine instead, and then added egg white to make the fish more tender.

Heat oil in a pan. The most important step in making sweet and sour fish is frying. Put the marinated fish into the pan and fry until golden brown. Then take out and put on a plate.

The only thing left was the sauce. Li Nanqiao added firewood, staring at the fish on the plate without blinking, smelling the fragrance in the air, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

"Okay, no need to add more firewood. Take the rice out first, and then go wake my wife up to eat." Qin Ke collected the sauce and poured the boiled sugar juice on the golden and crispy fried fish.

He was going to make another dish of cold dishes. As the weather was getting warmer, cold dishes would be crisp and delicious, which would whet people's appetite.

Cut the potatoes into shreds, blanch them in water, and then rinse them with cold water. This will make the shredded potatoes more crispy.

When he brought out the two dishes, he saw Lu Youqing had already come out. Although he was not as energetic as usual, he looked much better than in the morning, and there was some color on his face.

"Wake up, are you feeling better?" Qin Ke put two plates of food on the table. They mostly ate outdoors now. The table was placed in a pavilion with mats hanging on all four sides. If they felt too sunny, they could just put the mats down.

"It's much better now. You don't have to worry." Lu Youqing smiled. She has been feeling uncomfortable every month since she started menstruating. She suffered a lot before she was bought by Qin Ke. Her body was a little weak, so the abdominal pain was more severe every month. She had long been used to it. It was not a big deal. Qin Ke was too nervous.

"Okay, I made the sweet and sour fish you wanted, and also made a cold dish for your appetizer. How about trying it?" Qin Ke served the rice and brought it to her.

"It's delicious. The shredded potatoes are fresh too. What did you put in it?"

"I put a little sugar in it. If you like, eat more."

Li Nanqiao started eating only after they both picked up their chopsticks. After taking a bite, he opened his eyes wide in surprise, and then showed an expression of enjoyment.

Later on, she didn't pay any attention to what Qin Ke and Lu Youqing were talking about. Her mind was completely focused on the food, and she was eating hard.

After both of them put down their chopsticks, she transferred the remaining food into their bowls.

Qin Ke cooked for three people. As the weather got hot, the food couldn't be frozen to keep it fresh, so there was basically no leftovers in his family. After Li Nanqiao finished eating, he took the initiative to clean up the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash them.

Seeing that there was nothing else to do at home, Lu Youqing asked her to go home early.

"Okay, call me if anything happens!" Li Nanqiao wiped his hands and prepared to get up and say goodbye.

It was not until it got dark and she was about to go back to the house to rest that she saw Qin Ke making the mattress for her.

"Just use this old mattress. It doesn't matter if it gets dirty. And... I'll sleep with you tonight." After Qin Ke made the bed, he straightened up and looked at Lu Youqing who came in.
