Chapter 24 : Is the mouth made of gold? Will it wear out if used too much?

Unlike Su Ranran’s careful and meticulous movements, Gao Fangxia washes the sweet potatoes very quickly. 

Whether they are clean or not is another matter, but you have to ask if it’s fast or not? Looking at the sweet potatoes she washed and placed next to her, Su Ranran resisted the urge to wash them again.

“They have gone to the brigade headquarters to wait. As for whether they can convince the captain, we will know when Shen Yue comes back.”

But Gao Fangxia was very confident in her abilities. She said that her Shen Yue will definitely meet the chairman, how could they not be anxious?

The women in the team gossip about other people’s affairs every day. In the end, isn’t it just a comparison of whose man is more capable and whose child is more obedient?

While listening, Su Ranran couldn’t help but wash the sweet potato that still had some mud on it. She didn’t breathe a sigh of relief until she was sure that the sweet potatoes in the basin were all clean.

Gao Fangxia didn’t take her actions to heart.

She is like this, although she likes to take advantage of small things, she is not a stubborn person. She is very generous.

After scooping up a bucket of water to rinse the sweet potatoes, she carried them back to the kitchen.

Today’s lunch is boiled sweet potatoes.

Although many people in later generations pursue eating coarse grains to lose weight, eating coarse grains these days is a very uncomfortable thing. There is no oil and water all year round, and eating too many sweet potatoes can easily cause heartburn.

But there is no way not to eat them, the fine grains distributed every year are so small, and you can only barely make it until the next grain exchange if you eat tightly.

Look, the Shen family’s fine grains are running out, and they are counting on this season’s harvest to distribute grain.

Thinking of the almost empty rice jar, Su Ranran felt mixed emotions.

Although I don’t know how they survived this disaster in the first life, I don’t need to think about it to know that it must have been very difficult. After all, even if the higher-ups wanted to allocate grain for relief, they were willing but unable to do so, and could only ensure that everyone survived.

Su Ranran followed Gao Fangxia into the kitchen.

The kitchen was dark, especially the corner near the stove, which was full of traces of smoke.

Gao Fangxia drew some water from the water tank and washed it in the big pot.

Su Ranran, who saw the big tank, suddenly had an idea.

One drop of water mixed with one bucket of water is a bit high in concentration, so what about a large tank of water?

After all, a tank of water is equivalent to seven or eight buckets of water.

Thinking of their unconditional trust in her and their attitude of protecting her in the morning, Su Ranran decided to return the favor.

Finding a reason to distract Gao Fangxia, she dropped a drop of spring water into the water tank. Then she picked up the ladle and stirred the water in the water tank.

Shen He had just returned home and saw his wife bending over as if… stirring the water?

“What are you going to do? I’ll do it.”

Because he scared her yesterday, Shen He spoke as softly and slowly as possible this time.

Su Ranran probably had this experience before, so she didn’t panic this time. Seeing him come back, her eyes lit up.

“Fangxia is cooking sweet potatoes. I have nothing to do, so I came to chat with her.”

As she said this, she put down the ladle and walked towards him.

Su Ranran was in a good mood now. If nothing unexpected happens, she should have solved the problem of harvesting rice in advance.

Seeing her curved eyebrows, Shen He’s depressed heart also improved.

That female comrade is too strange. There is no source of those materials. There is no such a large amount of pork flowing in the entire county, including the black market. And where did her snacks and facial creams that could not be produced locally come from?

Could it be that their Shuiqiao Brigade really hid such a big spy?

This matter has alarmed the city’s security bureau, and the investigators are expected to come down tomorrow.

Su Ranran also noticed the solemnity on his face, and suddenly she couldn’t help but sympathize with her man.

After all, rebirth plus space is not something that science can explain.

But when she thought of the warehouse, she couldn’t help but have a headache.

During the day, while Shen He was away, she entered the space and wanted to turn the warehouse back into jade and drip blood on it to test her conjecture.

But the warehouse was not under her control and could not be shrunk at all.

In the end, Su Ranran had to hold the idea of giving it a try and drip blood on the warehouse.

The result was of course useless, the warehouse was still out of her control.

“I’ll cook, you take a rest.”

Shen He picked up the ladle and poured half a ladle of water into the pot.

Su Ranran:…

She had been resting all the time.

Is he going to spoil her into a useless person?

But it must be said that such pampering really makes people powerless to resist, and the irritability caused by the warehouse in Su Ranran’s heart also disappeared.

Without hesitation, she moved a small stool as usual and sat aside to watch him make a fire. While watching, she would find some topics to chat with him from time to time.

But the man said too little basically, she was the one talking, and he replied briefly with a few words.

Not long after, the sky was chatted to death!

Su Ranran widened her eyes in disbelief!

“Excuse me, is your mouth made of gold? Will it wear out if you use it too much?”

Su Ranran glared at him and said angrily.

“It’s made of meat, it won’t wear out.” The man answered seriously.

Su Ranran:…

She was so angry that she couldn’t help but tease him.

“Which hurts more, hitting the head with a watermelon or a pumpkin?”

“The head.”

Su Ranran:?!

“Why can’t a bowl be broken by a hammer?”

“The bowl is broken.”

Su Ranran:!!

“How many eggs can a person eat on an empty stomach?”

“One.”

Su Ranran: …

She was not convinced and asked several more questions in a row, and the angles were getting more and more tricky.

And he still answered them easily, as if nothing could stump him.

Not only that, he pushed the firewood into the stove in an orderly manner.

“I give in.” Su Ranran clasped her hands together to show that she was defeated.

Looking at her cute look of being unwilling to accept defeat but having to admit defeat, Shen He couldn’t help but chuckle.

This laugh was not a big deal, but Su Ranran was stunned on the spot. She had never seen Shen He laugh like this before.

At this time, the magnetic low laugh reached her ears, and Su Ranran felt as if she was electrocuted, numb and tingling. Resisting the urge to cover her ears, she seemed to be able to hear her own heartbeat.

One after another, as if it was going to jump out of her chest.

“It’s too foul.”

Su Ranran muttered softly, blushing.

Shen He didn’t know whether he heard it or not, and his eyes, still with a smile, looked at her. That smile softened the firm contours of the man’s face, and his deep eyes seemed to be able to make people indulge.

Her heart beat faster and faster.

Su Ranran couldn’t help but wonder if she would be in trouble if she continued to beat like this.

“I… I’ll go out to find Fangxia.”

In the end, she didn’t know whether she was shy or afraid of her heart beating, but she made up an excuse and fled.

Behind her, the smile in the man’s eyes deepened a little.

Su Ranran, who had just walked out of the kitchen, ran into Gao Fangxia, who hadn’t had time to retract her head.

The four eyes met, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

“That… I’ll cook sweet potatoes.”

Gao Fangxia said, with the embarrassment of being caught eavesdropping on her face.

I didn’t expect that these two people would be like this when they get along in private. They didn’t say anything, but it made people feel blushing and heart-pounding.

“Oh.”

Su Ranran subconsciously made way for her, and her originally fair little face was still red at this time.

But Shen He was already lighting the fire in the kitchen, so how could Gao Fangxia be willing to go in?

One gave way, the other refused to go in, and the two of them were deadlocked at the door.

“What are you two doing standing at the kitchen door?” Pan Shuifang asked with a look of surprise.

But before they could answer, Shen Yue’s excited voice came from the door. “It’s done! The team leader agreed to harvest the rice tomorrow! Mom, just wait, your son will definitely be named a model worker, and when I meet the chairman, I will help you greet him!”

He looked so ambitious, as if the title of model worker was already a sure thing.

“Okay, okay, my son is ambitious, good job.” Pan Shuifang was also excited.

Only Shen He was confused.

“What do you mean by meeting the chairman?”

“Brother, don’t you know? Sister-in-law told me…”

Upon hearing this, Su Ranran felt her scalp tingling instantly, and she didn’t even dare to turn her head to see what the expression of the man behind her was.
