Chapter 140: Stocking vegetables and making pickles with the Ruan brothers

In the early morning, cold air was blowing, and Wang Panpan found some thicker clothes and put them on.

She heard no movement in the yard, and looked at the sky outside. She knew that Li Pingping and the others had left, but she didn't care. She just felt that the weather was as unpredictable as people's moods.

"Pan Pan, wake up, come over and have breakfast, let's go shopping for groceries together today.

This year, we have to stock up a lot of things, because we had less last year. By the way, the Ruan brothers are still waiting for us, and they are going to join us. "Wen Yi, who was frightened by the Ruan brothers early in the morning, did not look very good.

Who is this clever guy? Standing behind someone silently in the early morning, isn't he afraid of scaring the person to death?

"Ah, what do they think? Aren't they all the same?"

"She said that the pickled vegetables she ate here last time tasted delicious, so she wanted to learn how to make them from us. After all, as you know, there are no fresh vegetables to eat in winter.

But we also asked someone to teach us, and we haven't gone to buy groceries yet, so they asked us to help them, and they would come with us. It doesn't matter if we introduce acquaintances. " Wen Yi didn't even raise his head, continued to eat the food in his bowl, and explained the matter clearly.

"Okay, if Sister Wenyi doesn't think it's a bother, that's good. We're neighbors anyway, so I'll help if I can.

By the way, where is Sister Ma Juan going?" Wang Panpan was a little curious. Could she not have gotten up yet? She was usually the most diligent.

"Well, she is really useless. I don't know what mystery has befallen her. She went to find the Hu brothers and sisters again. Why don't you believe what they said?

There is nothing I can do. After all, no matter how good our friends are, it will only make them dislike you if you talk about this kind of thing too much!

Forget it, you are still young, why should I tell you these things?

Panpan, just pretend you didn't hear me, eat quickly." Wenyi couldn't help complaining as he spoke, and quickly picked up a piece of pickled vegetables for Wang Panpan, telling her to eat quickly, pout, and forget about it.

She never judges other people, but she is always prejudiced about this matter.

Because of Hu Xiangxiang, she particularly disliked Hu Runshen. She always felt that he was a two-faced ungrateful person and very fake.

“Hey, I didn’t hear anything. I need to eat quickly so we can go shopping for groceries and buy some extra for the cellar.

Did Sister Ma Juan tell her how much she wanted?

Sister Pingping is not here this year, so we should prepare less. After all, we don’t know when she will come, and if we don’t finish the food, it will go bad and it will be a waste.” Wang Panpan thought to herself, how much is appropriate?

Too much is not good, too little is not good either.

I can’t calculate it, but one person is missing. We can’t stock up like we did last year.

"Hey, Panpan, Wenyi, the two of you don't have to worry about me. I planned to spend the New Year at Hu Runshen's place last year."

"what?"

"what?"

The two people looked at Ma Juan who came in from the door in disbelief. When did she come back?

What's wrong? Didn't I curse and swear before? I was so determined that I would never go back. It's only been a short time. Could I have been deceived?

Ma Juan lowered her head in shame, but came back to get something. Hu Xiangxiang fainted from hunger, and she had to quickly get some candy for first aid, and she happened to see them talking about these things.

"Oh well."

"Well, as long as you like it."

Wang Panpan respected the fate of others and put aside her desire to help others. Wen Yi looked at her, not even daring to look her in the eye. She looked rather majestic, which frightened Ma Juan.

Then Ma Juan breathed a sigh of relief and went into the house.

The two of them saw her carrying all the bags, big and small, out of the house.

Oh my god, wasn’t the loss I suffered last time enough?

The two could only look at each other in silence.

"Hu Xiangxiang, if you make a mistake again this time, don't blame me for being ruthless. You should do what you should do. Unless I get married, you have no right to make trouble."

"Brother, I know she didn't mean it. Last time it was just a sentence. Who knew she would be so stingy? She definitely won't do that this time."

"Hmph, that's best."

"Think carefully about what kind of life we ​​are living. Don't dare to ruin my good deeds again. I don't mind letting you live alone."

"No, I'll be good."

The sound of footsteps outside the door made the two siblings shut up. They were very friendly and respectful to each other.

"Juan'er, you're back."

"Ah."

"I'll help you."

...

"Pan Pan, let's go."

"Okay."

"Hey, Brother Ruan Xiao, are you guys coming too?"

“Well, last time I heard you say that we need to prepare some things for the New Year, and we have no experience, so we can only ask you for help.

Sorry for the inconvenience."

"Haha, you guys are too formal. We are neighbors, and we should help each other. Let's go and buy some groceries first. Don't you have any?"

"But I see you have a lot in your fields. Do you still need to buy more?" Ruan Xiao was a little curious. Is it hard to survive in winter? Can you eat so much?

“Not really. Last year we stored half in the cellar and used the other half to make pickles, and then sent some to relatives and friends. Fortunately, we had Aunt Niu’s help, otherwise we wouldn’t have been able to do it.

But if you don't need to remember, you can order less. You can ask Aunt Niu and Grandma Cheng later, they know best. "Wen Yi thought about making pickles last year and felt a little funny. They almost failed.

“Yeah, we’re going to buy some of the ones we don’t have, and if we do have them, we don’t have to buy them.

This year, there are two of us, just like you, so we don’t have to do so much.” Wang Panpan didn’t hide it, because other people would know about this kind of thing in the future.

"Well," Ruan Ye wanted to ask clearly, but his brother hit him. He knew he shouldn't ask too much.

"That's good. If you two have any problems, just call us. My brother and I are men anyway, so we can use our strength at the moment. It would be a waste if we don't use it." Ruan Xiao narrowed his eyes and recommended himself enthusiastically. He really wanted to help the two girls.

I actually have some unspeakable thoughts, but it's no lie that I want to help now.

We talked and laughed along the way and soon arrived at Aunt Niu's house. We should have gone to Cheng's house, but Grandma Cheng was expecting her grandson to marry a granddaughter-in-law this year, so all the dishes had to be kept.

"Come here, how much do you want this year? Feel free to pick from my fields. If it's not enough, my neighbor's field is also good."

"Okay, Aunt Niu may have to trouble you again this year to help make pickles. I have forgotten those steps. And the Ruan brothers will also have to trouble you." Wen Yi was a little dramatic. She was very confident at the beginning and felt that she could do it.

But it is still difficult to ask her to replicate the marinade of spicy cabbage. If she makes a mistake by accident, everything will be ruined, so she still needs someone to help her.

"Aunt Niu, we brothers are troubled by you. We don't know how many dishes we need. How about you help us? We also need to send some to our parents back home." Ruan Ye also knew his face. If he acted well-behaved, many people would like him.

So now he looks well behaved and speaks softly and cowardly.

Wang Panpan wanted to laugh when she saw this; each of them really had their own unique tricks.

“Okay, okay, you young girls and boys trust us so much, how could we not agree?

Go, go, and you seem to be neighbors, so you can do it together, which saves a lot of time. Aunt Niu listened to these kids trying to please her, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it at all. She felt very happy just by listening.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"Let's go and pick vegetables from the fields. Pick whatever you like." Aunt Niu was very generous. She didn't expect to sell these things for money, but if they did, she would let people pick the best ones. After all, that was money!

Several people followed, because there were many people from the Niu family helping, and there were more boys and more strength, so they finished moving all the vegetables in a short while.

A few people went back and started to clean up. Since they had an appointment with Aunt Niu, they had to try their best to clean up the dishes. It was impossible to ask others to help with these small things.

They have to hurry up and do everything within their ability.

Wang Panpan and Wen Yi started picking vegetables, and the Ruan brothers beside them followed suit. As they learned, they helped them to clean them up.

The two of them didn't act pretentiously and went over to help them.

This exchange not only speeds up the process, but is also easier.

Men and women are matched, so work is not tiring.

In the evening, Ruan Xiao warmly invited people to have dinner at home. I helped a lot today, and these girls are not like those in the city, so pretentious, saying they can't do this or that, and they like to act like a spoiled child.

What's the point of being a spoiled brat? Can it be sold for money? Ruan Xiao, a straight man, couldn't accept it. How could he give money for nothing, treat people to a meal, and buy things for people?

It's simply a fantasy.

He looked at Wang Panpan with even more appreciation.

Don't worry about the literature and art, just treat it as a normal interaction. Anyway, children are grown up and have their own ideas. Don't stop them, don't push them, don't remind them, and don't even think about it.

When the two of them went back home at night, they didn't see Ma Juan come back yet, so they didn't pay much attention to her. Wang Panpan went straight back to the room to sleep. She was very tired today, but the work in the fields was not in vain.

Wenyi just looked around the kitchen, and seeing that many grain jars had been emptied, he had an idea in his mind.

After that, the villagers seemed to be busy and no one came to disturb them.

With the help of Aunt Niu, they quickly made the pickled vegetables and felt that they had solved a big problem in their hearts.
