Chapter 8

If it were modern Jiangsu and Anhui,

When I see a handsome guy, I obviously drool.

But after traveling through time, she became thinner and petite.

Blushing face and crazy eyes,

It seems that this is her original appearance.

Although the man is dark, he looks more powerful.

Su Wan inexplicably thought of that night and felt a little hot in his heart.

She was also thinking, how to answer?

This era,

In such a poor place like the Northwest, it is a bit unbelievable that she doesn’t know how to kill fish and chickens.

Despite the lack of material,

But during the annual Spring Festival, every household still kills animals.

The women here seem to be born to do this kind of thing.

Silly Auntie laughed, “Uncle, uncle is so handsome, hehe.”

She smiled quite silly, which actually eased the atmosphere a lot.

Men too,

Looking at the woman’s blushing cheeks, what happened that night was on my mind.

Fortunately, there was Sha Gu to break the awkwardness.

Su Wan also explained righteously, “I was stabbed when I was a child, and then… I would faint when I saw blood, which is why I can’t do it now.”

Xiao Muting thought it was reasonable.

He squatted down and took the knife from her hand.

Su An watched him use the back of a knife to remove the fish scales.

Then he killed the two fish in no time.

She squatted beside it and squeezed the intestines out of the fish’s stomach.

Looking at it this way, Su An looks even smaller.

Xiao Muting cleaned up the blood on the ground.

Ask, “Aren’t you okay with seeing the blood just now?”

Su Wan’s eyes rolled.

He made a far-fetched explanation, “That’s because you’re here, I feel safe, so I won’t think about the past, and naturally everything will be fine.”

Xiao Muting began to wash the fish intestines and asked, “Have you learned it?”

Su Wan wanted to answer, but he had learned it in his heart.

But the hands can’t learn.

She changed the subject, “Why are you dealing with fish intestines and other things?”

Seeing so many of them makes me feel a little sick.

Xiao Muting looked at the woman and always felt that she was a little strange.

“Don’t you know that fish intestines are edible?”

Su An thought about it and realized that she had heard of it, but she had never eaten it.

But I do eat a lot of pig intestines.

She laughed and said, “My aunt and I depend on each other for survival. My aunt does all these jobs.”

“Besides…we don’t eat fish more than twice a year, so I just didn’t think of it for a moment.”

Xiao Muting watched her processing the small fish, but so far she had only processed three…small fish.

Although she is a nurse and has seen many bloody scenes,

I can also sew stitches for others and watch doctors perform surgery.

But she never killed chickens, ducks, fish, etc.

Like agricultural experts,

I know how to prevent pests, but I definitely don’t know how to use a cow to plow the fields.

Even the harvester won’t start.

This is what it means to specialize in a certain field.

Leave professional matters to professionals.

Xiao Muting was a little confused.

Isn’t this woman’s self-care ability too poor?

After cleaning the fish intestines, he could only help with the small fish.

In less than a few minutes, he had prepared a plate of small fish by himself.

Jiangsu and Anhui combined had about ten or eight of them.

She was stunned for a moment before she reacted and saw that Shagu had not finished processing the snails.

I picked up a stone from the side and tried to help.

“Captain Xiao, please help me get the bamboo sieve and dry that area on the kitchen stove.

Xiao Muting stood up and walked briskly into the kitchen.

The kitchen is simple but clean.

It’s very different from before.

The courtyard was also tidy and clean. It seemed that the woman had worked hard today.

He took out the bamboo sieve,

Then I asked in confusion, “What is this?”

Su Wan replied, “Snail, add some basil and chili to stir-fry, it will be delicious, but you have to smash the snail’s intestines first.”

“Then just wash it and you can keep the rest and process as much as you want to eat.”

The man was puzzled. “Stone snail?”

Su Wan then remembered,

In places like the Northwest, stone snails are not known.

Only in the modern south does she eat stone snails and field snails.

She thought hard and explained, “There was a famine before. My father learned about it from a friend in the south. I ate a lot when I was a kid, so I remembered it.”

“Thanks to your help today, otherwise I might still be having a headache now.”

Xiao Muting was slightly stunned.

Everyone who heard about it said that Su Wan was a tyrant in the village.

He also often bullies children and quarrels with others.

That’s because those kids bullied Silly Girl.

Su Wan just drove those children away.

How dare the original owner bully those children?

But the children lied to the adults, saying that the original owner bullied them.

The original owner could only quarrel with the villagers.

In the end, don’t let people say that Su Wan is a wild child born by a mother but without parents to teach him.

Naturally, he is also considered a fierce and unreasonable person by the villagers.

The villagers also said that she was lazy and even the dogs disliked the place where she lived.

Men think she is very hardworking.

And the house was also very clean.

But the man’s eyes dimmed.

Looking at the woman smiling, I just don’t understand that this is her nature.

She also said that she was pretending because he was there.

“You and my aunt deal with the snails, and I’ll go and knead the dough.” Su Wan had to thank Village Chief Liu for accepting the bribe.

Otherwise, she really didn’t know what to eat for dinner tonight.

She is good at making pancakes.

Although she is from the south, she likes northern noodles.

I often make my own pancakes and noodles.

There are basil and peppers in the backyard.

When she went to the river, she picked a lot of Houttuynia cordata.

I plan to make a cold salad and some tortillas and cornmeal.

She has learned a lot on the Internet.

Corn flour is not sticky enough and starch is needed to make noodles.

Fortunately, we had potatoes at home.

She sliced ​​potatoes and soaked them in water and cornmeal.

The potatoes can be cut into shreds later and stir-fried with pepper and potato shreds.

After finishing the work, it’s time to start making pancakes.

A dark shadow loomed from behind.

Su Wan looked back,

She said with a smile, “After I make the pancakes, I can cook the vegetables. Please help me light the fire.”

Xiao Muting put the cleaned fish, snails, and fish intestines aside for later use.

Watching the woman smile, she looked like a child… innocent.

It feels like he slept with a minor.

Looking at her, he felt guilty.

He was a man of few words to begin with, so he squatted down and started helping to light the fire.

Looking at the little woman’s familiar movements, I had just suspected that she had poor self-care ability.

But come in and see her preparing these things,

It seems like his thinking is one-sided.

He raised his eyes.

His voice was mellow and pleasant. “If we want to register, there are some things I need to clarify with you. I hope you won’t be too sensitive.”

Su Wan didn’t think much about it, “Of course, just ask.”

Xiao Muting pondered for a moment.

Question: “I heard that your grandmother…was thrown into prison during the special period because she was the daughter of a landlord, and later committed suicide?”

Su An had already obtained information from the original owner and had a clear understanding of the family situation.

But almost nothing is known about this matter.

When my grandmother was taken away, few people in the village knew about it.

The mission was originally carried out in secret.

The people in the village didn’t know about this.

She had a few candidates in mind, but she wasn’t sure.

“Did someone tell you about this specifically?”

Xiao Muting is open-minded and upright.

He didn’t intend to hide it.

But he didn’t say it yet.

Then I heard Su Wan’s angry question.
