Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year
Chapter 162 Take it back
"Mother Jingwen is here."
Several boys got up from the ground, their faces full of shame.
"This kid Shiro insisted that we take a break..." a woman explained hurriedly.
The Cui family paid high wages and the work was easy, it was a good job that was hard to find even with a lantern. Everyone was afraid that Jingwen's mother would be unhappy and drive them away again.
Lin smiled and said, "It's time to take a break. I can't stand working all the time. I just made some mung bean soup. Everyone, come and have some."
Lin's smile was genuine and didn't seem fake at all. The woman working there blinked, somewhat unable to react.
Jingwen's mother made mung bean soup for them?
You know what, when I heard about mung bean soup, my mouth felt a little dry.
The thing that was most in demand in the threshing ground was bowls. Several boys quickly ran to the warehouse, picked out a pile of bowls, and washed them with water.
The emerald green soup sways in the bowl and tastes refreshing.
Lin scooped from the bottom of the bucket, and each bowl contained half a bowl of mung beans.
The boys were eager to try it and couldn't wait to drink it all in one gulp.
"It's sweet." Mrs. Wang took a sip and said in surprise.
Mung beans are already very precious, but Jingwen's mother unexpectedly put some broth in the soup. The sweet taste spread in her mouth, and for a while there was the sound of people slurping the soup under the tree.
The Zhou family's wife took two sips and carefully put down the bowl: "I can't drink mung beans." After saying that, her face flushed, she said, "Boss, I'll take this bowl home later and return it tomorrow, okay?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the other woman also put down her bowl and said, "My teeth can't stand sweetness, so I'll take it back. My boy might like it."
Except for Youxi and a few boys who drank it all, the women took a few sips and put down their bowls, looking embarrassed.
"Why don't you drink it? It tastes so sweet." Mrs. Wang chewed mung beans with a happy face.
The mung beans are cooked to just the right temperature and taste crunchy.
I'll go back and ask Jingwen's mother how she managed.
Among the women, Mrs. Wang lived a good life. Her husband worked outside and brought home much more money every year than from farming.
With the money saved by the family, we have no pressure to move to the city. We have already invested half a foot in the city, and our daily food and drink are better than those of the villagers.
So even though prices are soaring, Mrs. Wang still buys some rice and meat for her children to satisfy their hunger.
Others don't have such good conditions. They usually don't even want to drink mung bean soup at home, let alone add sugar to it. Of course they have to take it home for their children to drink.
After Mrs. Wang finished speaking, the other women felt a little embarrassed.
Lin saw what they were thinking.
"I made this mung bean soup especially for you because I saw how hard everyone worked. You didn't say anything when I scooped out the soup just now, but now you have to drink it all."
Lin's tone was unusually firm, and even Cui Chengliang couldn't help but look at her.
"Don't let Jingwen's mother down." Sister Wang drank the whole bowl of mung bean soup, still wanting more. "If you don't want to drink it, then I will."
As he said this, he reached out to grab the bowl from the woman next to him.
"Who said I wouldn't drink anymore."
After Mrs. Lin said this, the women suppressed their heartache and drank up the mung bean soup.
After Zhou's wife finished drinking, she put down the bowl, and her eyes were even a little red.
My family hasn’t eaten mung beans for a long time. I originally wanted to take some home, add some water, and cook a few more bowls.
Pity.
Seeing that everyone had put down their bowls, Lin said slowly, "There's still some mung bean soup in the bucket. When you leave later, each of you can scoop a bowl and take it back."
The women were stunned and opened their mouths wide.
"Shall we take it back?"
"really?"
Lin smiled and nodded: "We made too much mung bean soup, and my family can't finish it, so it's a good time for everyone to share it."
