Chapter 42 Afraid that Cheng Huai can’t climb into bed

It wasn't until she noticed that Cheng Huai's hand seemed to be getting hot that Jiang Miao realized it and quickly let go.

There was no extra expression on Cheng Huai's face. He just looked at her and said, "I'll fetch water first."

Jiang Miao nodded in agreement and turned to look at the soybean seedlings in the soil.

When Cheng Huai brought the water up, she took a ladle and helped him water it.

The two people watered the water very quickly and finished the two buckets of water in one go.

Putting the barrel and pole into the haystack nearby, Cheng Huai took the ginger seedlings to pick dates.

I didn't pick many ginger plums just now, but the dates on them were still hanging brightly red.

Jiang Miao quickly picked up the basket in her hands, and Cheng Huai squatted down, wrapped his arms around her legs, and lifted it up.

This time it is higher than before, and the top jujube and ginger seedlings can be picked with just one hand.

She looked down at the taciturn man. She was not afraid at all at such a high altitude.

Rough men always give her a sense of security.

After picking the bunch of dates in front of her, Jiang Miao looked to the other side and said, "Cheng Huai, go a little to the right. I can't reach those over there."

The man moved slowly, his arms tightly hugging the crook of her knees, not shaking at all.

Soon, the ginger seedlings picked all the dates on top and filled most of the basket, which was a bit heavy.

Jiang Miao lowered her head: "Cheng Huai, put me down, and you can pick the ones below."

"Give me the basket." He put his arm around her and stretched out his other hand to catch the basket.

Jiang Miao gave him the basket, slid it down his arms, and quickly landed on her feet.

After helping her stand firm, Cheng Huaicai picked up all the remaining dates with the basket, very quickly, and brought down a lot of leaves.

Jiang Miao raised her head and watched Cheng Huai stretch out his hand to pick the dates. She was confused as to how Jiang Mei picked the dates. Given her height, she couldn't pick many dates.

After picking a basket full of dates, Jiang Miao's eyes were filled with satisfaction. She went to pick large leaves to cover them, and then she and Cheng Huai went down the mountain.

When they got home, the two children ran over excitedly and grabbed the basket in Cheng Huai's hand to see, but they were quickly hugged away by Yu Ying.

"Miao Yatou, take them aside. They can't let them grab and play with these dates."

Jiang Miao nodded, hugged the fat bodies of the two round dumplings, and gave each of them a kiss, "Boy, dear, dear, let's go see the rabbit."

Dabao happily kissed his mother and said, "Mom, go too."

Xiaobao did not kiss Jiang Miao, but shyly shrank his neck, looking at Jiang Miao obediently with his dark eyes, and holding her clothes with his little hands.

Cheng Huai stood on the edge and stared at the two brats for a while, then quickly looked away and went to water the backyard.

"Let's go see the rabbit. It's time to eat after watching for a while." Yu Ying smiled and went to the backyard with the basket.

Jiang Miao was stuck with the two children and couldn't follow Yu Ying to pick dates, so she had to take them to see the rabbit and feed the rabbit some green vegetables.

The two children were quiet and no longer noisy while watching the rabbit. Cheng Huai was watering the rabbit and could keep an eye on them. Jiang Miao went to the kitchen to add firewood to the fire.

After picking the dates, Yu Ying took water to wash them, spread them on a dustpan, and put them outside to blow in the wind so that they could be dried tomorrow.

After doing this, Yu Ying washed her hands and entered the kitchen, saying: "Girl Miao, there is a piece of tofu in the cupboard. Let's see if there are any delicious ways to make it. I bought it when I saw the tofu seller coming this afternoon.

, thinking of changing the taste."

Every day at home we have either cowpeas or eggplant, melons and wild vegetables, and I get tired of eating them just thinking about it.

Jiang Miao nodded, turned around and took out the tofu from the cabinet, "Mom, let me make braised tofu."

"Let's do it. Mom, let's light the fire and see how you do it." Yu Ying took a small stool and sat down beside it.

She used to make tofu directly by boiling it in water and adding some salt, but it had no flavor. She was curious about how to make ginger sprouts.

Jiang Miao cut the tofu into pieces and put them in a pot to blanch the water. Then she poured oil and sauteed the minced chili and garlic until fragrant. She added other seasonings. Finally, she put the tofu into the pot and gently turned it twice. Then she poured in some water and set the heat to low.

stew.

"Mom, I'm going to pull some green onions." Jiang Miao put down the spatula.

Yu Ying stood up immediately and said, "Just go and watch the fire."

After saying that, he quickly went to the vegetable garden to pull onions and hurriedly washed them back.

When the tofu is ready, Jiang Miao sprinkles the chopped green onions on top and takes a bowl out of the pot.

Yu Ying held it and sniffed it. The aroma of green onions mixed with tofu hit her nostrils. She couldn't help but praise: "It's so fragrant. Mom has learned another dish from you."

Jiang Miao smiled and said, "Mom, go and taste it. I'll stir-fry some more and then we can eat."

"Okay." Yu Ying carried the tofu bowl and went to the front room in a good mood.

After Jiang Miao finished cooking the vegetables, Cheng Huai also finished pouring the water and came over to help her serve the vegetables.

When they got to the front, Yu Ying had already filled the bowls with rice and called them to sit down and eat.

Dabao and Xiaobao had already eaten it, but when they smelled the aroma, they couldn't help but run over and look up at the ginger seedlings.

"Mom, Xiangxiang."

"Xiaobao, I want to eat."

The two cubs hugged their mother's legs with greedy expressions on their faces.

Jiang Miao had never brought a baby before, and she didn't know if such a big child could eat it. She could only look at Yu Ying.

Yu Ying put a piece of tofu in his mouth and looked over with a smile, "You can give them some to eat and make them greedy."

Jiang Miao then cut the tofu into small pieces and fed each of them a small mouthful.

The two children narrowed their eyes with satisfaction and chewed slowly, obviously liking it very much.

Cheng Huai took a bite silently, his dark eyes brightening, and then he took a few more pieces to eat.

"Is it delicious?" Jiang Miao couldn't help but ask when she saw him eating silently.

Cheng Huai paused while eating and nodded slowly, "Yeah, it's delicious."

"As long as it's delicious." Jiang Miao pursed her lips and smiled.

Yu Ying sat watching and couldn't help but clicked his tongue.

Menghulu's son seems to have enlightened himself.

It was difficult to reply even one word before, but today I said three words.

When it was time to go to bed at night, Yu Ying came over specially to take away the other straw mats and quilts, saying that there were not enough for them next door.

Jiang Miao laughed dumbly, because she was afraid that Cheng Huai would not be able to climb into bed.

Cheng Huai was taking a bath in the backyard, and Jiang Miao went to get some ointment to apply on her forehead. She felt that there was only a little scab left, and it wasn't itchy. She estimated that it would be completely healed in a few days.

Jiang Miao felt relieved, put the ointment back, and saw Cheng Huai enter the room and close the door.

She climbed onto the bed first, turned to look at the man, "Cheng Huai, blow out the candles, I've already applied the medicine."

"Okay." He glanced at her forehead and quickly bent down to blow out the candle.

The room became quiet, Jiang Miao still slept on the inside, but because of the big bed, the space for the two of them to sleep became larger. As long as they were careful to avoid it, they couldn't touch it at all.

But Jiang Miao couldn't sleep. She rolled slowly on the edge and accidentally rolled next to him, and accidentally put her hand on him.

Cheng Huai's body stiffened for a moment and did not move.
