Joe's Farming

Hongxiu was very happy to hear that and went up to pull the pig rope.

Gu Gang dodged with a smile: "It's very strong. I'll lock it up first."

There are still more than ten days before the Chinese New Year, and Gu Gang plans to keep the sheep for a while longer. Gu Gang thinks about repairing the sheep shed that collapsed yesterday and keeping the pigs there.

The one from Gu Feng's family is not so lucky. I'm afraid it won't survive tonight.

After Gu Feng tied up the pig, Qiao Yu said as if to take credit: "I made you some delicious candy. I've been waiting for you."

Gu Feng glanced at his dirty hands and said, "Wait until I wash my hands and change my clothes before eating."

Qiao Yu nodded and went to the kitchen to instruct Da Zhuang to cut the cooled and solidified nougat.

Cutting sugar is much easier than stirring it. Da Zhuang didn't cut it evenly at first, and was afraid that Qiao Yu would scold him, so he asked Su Qing to help him cut it.

Su Qing was better at using a knife than him, and she quickly cut a plate of sugar into rectangular blocks of uniform size.

Qiao Yu scooped up a piece and tasted it with satisfaction.

Emmmm, because it is milk tofu instead of milk powder, it has a little bit of sourness in its sweetness, but it is just right to enrich the taste of nougat.

Especially the peanuts inside, which are fragrant and crispy, and the outer layer of sugar coating is soft and glutinous, so delicious.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Qiao Yu smiled and said, "Don't just look at me, try them all. If you can't finish them, wrap them up in oil paper."

Qiao Yu cut a small square of oil paper and demonstrated. "Like this."

Bai Lan nodded immediately: "Okay."

Children have the least resistance to sugar. When they saw Qiao Yu put a small dish of sugar in it and take it away, they each stepped forward and took a piece to taste.

The aroma of milk, peanuts, and the sweetness of maltose instantly captured their hearts.

Yunpian cake is also delicious, but the two flavors are different.

Qiao Xing took two pieces and went back to the house to let the old man taste them.

Gu Feng had just changed his clothes when Qiao Yu brought in a plate of snacks.

"Husband, have some candy. Nougat was my favorite when I was a kid."

Gu Feng knew it was not the little one here one day, so he sat down quickly and picked up one to taste.

Qiao Yu asked expectantly, "Is it delicious? When I was a kid, I could only eat two pieces of this during the Chinese New Year. I loved it."

Gu Feng nodded: "It's delicious."

He fed a piece to Qiao Yu. Seeing Qiao Yu's cheeks puffed up and looking satisfied, Gu Feng couldn't help but kiss her.

Qiao Yu quickly reached out and wiped the place he kissed: "It's sticky, big brother."

Gu Feng pulled the person into his arms and laughed darkly.

"Has Qiao Er been feeling unwell these days?"

Qiao Yu touched her stomach unconsciously: "No, I don't feel anything. I just feel hungry sometimes at night."

I also have some calf cramps, but these aren't really a big deal.

Gu Feng felt relieved after hearing this. After all, boys and girls are a little different, and he didn't want Qiao Yu to have any accidents.

"But how long will this snow last? It feels like it never stops."

“It shouldn’t stop for a while.”

Qiao Yu thought about the "tap water" at home: "Will the spring freeze? What will we do with our water supply?"

Gu Feng consoled him, "That spring also produces water in winter, but the water in the bamboo tube might freeze."

Qiao Yu checked specifically today and found that water was still coming out of the bamboo pipes in the yard, which meant that the coldest time had not yet arrived.

"Fortunately, we have enough firewood and charcoal. Those who are not prepared will have a hard time."

Gu Feng pushed Qiao Yu's hair back from her ears and said, "Everyone goes through this. This winter is no different from previous years."

Qiao Yu was relieved: "Well, I was worrying too much."

"I wonder how Xu Ning is doing? He and I are about the same month."

"Ning is a strong man, there will be no problem."

-

Qingshan Town, Xu Family.

Xu Yuan sat on the couch, leaning against Xu Ning and reading a book.

There was enough charcoal burning in the room so it wasn't cold at all.

This charcoal was brought to the town by Gu Gang last time. He saw it and bought it at a high price.

In Xu Ning's hand were the account books of the soap shop and Yipinxuan.

Xu Yuan flipped two pages of the book and looked at her husband. She was a little unhappy to see that her husband was looking at the account book too seriously.

"Aning, look at me."

Xu Ning quickly put down the account book and looked at him, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Xu Yuan smiled slyly and put Xu Ning's hand on his chest: "It's uncomfortable here."

Xu Ning's heart was filled with alarm, and he said anxiously, "Wait, I'll go call the doctor."

As he was about to get up, Xu Yuan grabbed him and carried him back to the couch: "I was just teasing you. I just felt uncomfortable because you were looking at the account book instead of me."

Xu Ning's face flushed when he heard this, and he whispered in a low voice: "Then you can't scare me."

Xu Yuan knew that her husband cared about her the most, so she took advantage of his favor and said, "Then you said you were wrong."

Xu Ning's face got even hotter, but he still said obediently: "I was wrong."

Xu Yuan held the person and moved in, changing to a more comfortable position, stroking Xu Ning's lips, and said leisurely: "What's wrong?"

Xu Ning was at a loss. He didn't know what he had done wrong. He just didn't want to upset his husband, so he just went along with what he said.

Xu Yuan asked again.

Xu Ning suddenly had an idea: "I shouldn't just look at the account book and not my husband."

Xu Yuan happily gave her a kiss: "Well, no more next time."

Xu Ning protested weakly: "But husband, the New Year is coming soon, and we need to check the accounts at home and in the store."

Xu Yuan thought about it, and then he said, "Then let me hold it and see."

Xu Ning could only say okay and awkwardly let Xu Yuan hug him from behind.

Although Xu Yuan has recovered a little during this period, he is definitely not as strong as Xu Ning, except that he is taller than Xu Ning.

He hugged Xu Ning tightly with both hands, and felt his husband's body so well that he no longer had any hands free to read.

Now, Xu Yuan was looking at the accounts seriously, and he never stopped working behind the person.

"Husband, don't you need to read?"

Xu was willing to stop and said seriously, "It's just a test for a scholar. When my husband was sick, I had nothing to do. I read books every day and I have almost finished it."

When Xu Ning thought about how her husband had to stay at home every day when he was sick and couldn't go out, she whispered, "Wait for me, I'll finish these two pages soon."

Xu Yuan said okay, and his hands started to misbehave again.

At this moment, Xu Ning controlled himself from having any random thoughts and concentrated on reading the account book before turning around and hugging Xu Yuan.

"Husband, do you want it? I'll help you."

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked outside the screen.

"Aren't you shy anymore? It's still broad daylight outside." Xu Yuan said deliberately.

Xu Ning buried her face in her husband's neck: "I...I want to make my husband comfortable."

Terrible!

Xu Yuan cursed inwardly.

Xu Ning has a very flexible mouth and learns things very quickly...

Xu Yuan thought of how clumsy her husband was when he first came, and she loved him even more.
