The old house has been idle for too long. Grandma Qin Zheng's legs are so bad that she can't even take care of herself. Naturally, she can't clean it. Even if Qin Xiang'e, a married aunt, comes back to clean it from time to time, cleaning it is still laborious now.
Around dusk, Ye Yun saw Qin Zheng still busy and got into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
There was really nothing in the kitchen. The only thing that caught the eye was the half kilogram of millet in the jar. Ye Yun boiled water in a pot, grabbed some millet, cleaned it and threw it into the pot.
Then she went out again and found a lot of edible wild vegetables on the roadside.
In this era of poverty, people basically rely on mountains to eat and water to eat. Fortunately, all kinds of wild vegetables grow in the mountains during this season, which prevents many people from going hungry.
Ye Yun quickly pulled out a large handful of wild vegetables and rinsed them with clean water when she came back.
The small pot next to the ground pot is also warm. They basically put the cooking pot and the wok together. After lighting the fire, the two pots can be used together. Ye Yun found a small amount of lard, scooped out a small spoon and threw it. Into the wok.
Lard melts instantly at high temperatures.
Seeing this, Ye Yun grabbed the washed wild vegetables and threw them into the pot.
Zila——
As soon as the wild vegetables with water droplets were put into the pot, the oily water made a harsh sound and the oil splashed. Ye Yun quickly used a spatula to stir it, and within a few seconds the alluring aroma of the wild vegetables mixed with lard came out.
By the time she finished cooking, Qin Zheng and Qin Xiang'e were taking advantage of the setting sun to move the dried items back into the house.
At this time, the house has been cleaned inside and out, and the quilt that has been in the sun all afternoon exudes a good smell. Although there are many ugly patches, it is also warm and comfortable.
"Qin Zheng! Call Shanggu, wash your hands and eat!"
Ye Yun shouted from the shack.
As soon as Qin Zheng put a quilt on the kang, he heard Ye Yun shouting outside. He turned to look at Qin Xiang'e who was setting the table, "Auntie, eat first."
"Hey, okay."
When Qin Zheng walked out, Qin Xiang'e peeked at Ye Yun outside through the small window.
Ye Yunzheng moved a small dining table to the open-air courtyard and put the fried vegetables and bowls of ladleed soup on the table. When she saw Qin Zheng sweating profusely, she also picked up a towel and put it on the table. He wiped the sweat from Qin Zheng's forehead.
Qin Xiang'e looked at this scene through the window, and a touch of relief finally appeared on her old face.
"Where's my aunt?"
Ye Yun wiped Qin Zheng's sweat with a towel and looked in the direction of the main room. Why didn't Qin Xiang'e come out with Qin Zheng?
Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng shouted into the main room again: "Auntie? It's time to eat!"
"Hey! Come here!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Xiang'e hurried out of the main room and helped Grandma Qin Zheng, who was wandering next to her, to the dinner table together.
The old lady didn't remember anyone, but she didn't forget the meal at all.
Without Qin Xiang'e's reminder, the old man picked up the bowl with his trembling hands, picked up the chopsticks, picked up a bite of vegetables and put it into his mouth, then lowered his head and took a sip of the soup, feeling very comfortable.
Before, he thought Qin Zheng was a robber, but now he shares the same dining table with him.
After dinner, Ye Yun stood up and planned to wash the dishes. Qin Xiang'e quickly pressed her down and said the same thing: "How can I let you, a new wife, do it? Just have a good rest."
After saying that, Kuanglang stacked up the bowls and chopsticks and carried them to the well.
Ye Yun looked at Qin Zheng silently.
Qin Zheng didn't say a word, but held her hand and asked her to go to the side to rest.
Ye Yun: "..."
Qin Xiang'e is a capable person. While washing the dishes, she chatted with the old lady sitting at the door and resting.
The old lady was deaf because of her age, so Qin Xiang'e would raise her voice and shout. The old lady didn't know whether she understood or not, but she would nod to Qin Xiang'e every once in a while to express her response.
Ye Yun turned around and returned to the house.
Qin Zheng was busy organizing other items and didn't think much when he saw her returning to the house.
The cool summer night breeze carried the fragrance of locust flowers and blew into the inner room through the one-meter-wide small wooden window. Ye Yun walked into the house and laid out the kang while it was still dark outside.
When she had laid out the mattress and sheets, it was the turn of the two quilts to be covered.
Qin Zheng put the two quilts together on the kang, obviously intending to keep one for him and one for her.
He is quite conscious.
Ye Yun hesitated for a moment, touching one of the quilts and lost in thought.
"Zhengzi's family, are you still busy?"
Suddenly a voice came from outside.
The door curtain was opened, and Qin Xiang'e entered the house cautiously holding a small wooden box.
After all, this was the first time Qin Xiang'e met her new daughter-in-law. She was afraid that Ye Yun would not welcome her, so her smile and tone were a little nervous: "Zhengzi's wife, I'm here to give you something."
Send things?
Ye Yun's eyes fell on the palm-sized wooden box in Qin Xiang'e's hand, and she suddenly remembered her past life.
