Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 277: It will make your teeth sour

As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw several large urns neatly placed in the yard.

An Yue noticed that the yard was unusually quiet. She turned around and saw that the ducks were not in the pen, and even Ba Shi was not at home.

"Sister-in-law?" An Yue shouted.

Meng Xiuer poked her head out from the west wing: "Yueyue is back?"

"Sister-in-law, where are Chunzhi and the others?" An Yue closed the gate of the courtyard and walked towards the main hall to drink water.

"Haru-ji and the others are driving the ducks to the fields to catch locusts!"

As Meng Xiuer spoke, she closed the door of the west ear room, then went to the yard to wash her hands. After washing her hands, she walked towards the kitchen.

An Yue drank a bowl of water and said, "No wonder I didn't see Ba ​​Shi when I came back!"

Meng Xiuer brought the food to the main hall and said to An Yue, "What have you been busy with, Yueyue? I saw Daniu and the others carrying a few large vats back, but I didn't see you. I'm a little worried!"

An Yue walked to the blue board to wash her hands, laughing and said, "Haha, sister-in-law can't leave me for a moment!"

"Girl, why are you still as smooth-talking as your brother!!" Meng Xiu'er said with a helpless smile.

"Ah? Brother Anqing is not a smooth talker! He is an honest man."

An Yue's impression of An Qing was that he was a simple and honest man, so she was quite surprised to hear what Meng Xiuer said.

Mentioning Anqing, Meng Xiuer couldn't help but start to look worried. After she set the table, she sat on the bench and muttered thoughtfully, "I don't know how he is doing now."

After washing her hands, An Yue sat next to Meng Xiuer and comforted her, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, brother will be fine."

"Well, I hope so." Meng Xiuer pursed her lips, her eyes full of sadness.

In order to prevent her from falling into sadness, An Yue deliberately changed the subject and asked, "Sister-in-law, Xiaobao is in your belly. Can you feel him moving now?"

Meng Xiuer looked down at her belly, stroked it gently and said, "I feel it sometimes."

An Yue widened her eyes in surprise. She asked curiously, "What does that feel like?"

Meng Xiuer rolled her eyes and said, "That feeling is... just like a little ant crawling on my stomach."

An Yue swallowed the food in her mouth and said with a smile: "Haha, after hearing what sister-in-law said, it seems that Xiaobao is also a little naughty!"

"Yes! Every time the little naughty moves, the feeling is really wonderful." Meng Xiuer finished speaking, slowly stood up and said, "Take your time to eat, Yueyue, I'm going to take a nap first."

"Yeah, okay." An Yue responded and buried her head in eating with big mouthfuls.

……

After lunch, An Yue saw that Daniu Ale and the others had not returned yet.

So she decided to go to the paddy fields to take a look.

She put the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen, picked up a wooden basin and walked towards the gate of the yard.

After locking the gate of the yard, An Yue walked along the path towards the paddy fields.

When they reached halfway up the slope, they saw from afar a few people laughing and catching locusts in the field. An Yue walked towards them carrying a wooden basin.

When Chunzhi saw An Yue, she asked loudly, "Miss, are you back?"

When Bashi saw An Yue, he ran towards her excitedly.

"Yes! Aren't you planning to take a nap and keep catching locusts here?" An Yue asked as they walked.

After An Yue finished speaking, she put down the wooden basin in her hand and started catching locusts.

"I wanted to go back for a nap, but when I saw so many locusts eating our rice leaves, I couldn't let them keep eating!" Chunzhi said as she caught locusts.

At this time, Auntie Wang, who was harvesting wheat in a nearby wheat field, asked loudly, "Yueyue, what are you doing?"

"Auntie, we are catching locusts!"

"There are so many in the fields, how can we catch them all? Besides, there is no point in catching them all."

"Locusts are not completely useless. Take them home, blanch them, clean them, and then stir-fry them. They will taste good!" An Yue responded loudly.

When Aunt Wang heard An Yue say that locusts were edible, she straightened up and smiled in surprise: "What? This thing can be eaten? Is Yueyue teasing Auntie?"

An Yue grinned and said, "Auntie, Yueyue is not lying to you, these locusts are really edible, and they taste very good!"

Aunt Wang wiped the sweat off her face and said doubtfully, "Oh my god! I've lived for decades, and this is the first time I've heard that locusts are edible!"

"Don't disbelieve me, Auntie. Wait until Yueyue is done, and then I'll send you some to try, and you'll know." An Yue said seriously.

"Haha, okay, okay, now that you've mentioned that, I'm a little curious about what locusts taste like."

At this moment, An Yue suddenly remembered about digging herbs, so she asked again: "Auntie, is Ke'er still embroidering handkerchiefs at home these days?"

"Yes! If Yueyue wants to talk to Ke'er, just go to her house." After saying this, Aunt Wang continued to bend down and harvest wheat.

"Well, Yueyue really wants to go to Auntie's house to find Ke'er!"

"Go! So she won't have to nag at you all day."

"Auntie doesn't let Ke'er go out. She doesn't mean to nag about Yueyue!"

"How can that be possible? She doesn't want to come out with me to harvest wheat!" Aunt Wang said stubbornly.

"Haha, it's more fun to embroider handkerchiefs at home than to come out and harvest wheat!"

Aunt Wang said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "Look, you two little girls have been playing together since childhood! Your little thoughts are really exactly the same!"

An Yue and Aunt Wang smiled brightly, and Aunt Wang continued to bend down and harvest the wheat quickly.

After An Yue talked with Aunt Wang, Daniu suddenly said, "Miss, the basket is already full."

An Yue walked up to Daniu, weighed the basket, and said, "Well, it seems I have to weave a few more baskets."

"Then you sit down and take a rest while the ducks catch some more locusts. I'll go to the vegetable garden to pick some eggplants and tomatoes. When I come back, we can drive them back home!"

Ale patted his chest and said, "Miss, I will take these locusts home and boil them to death, and then bring the basket back here."

An Yue picked up the wooden basin and said, "I was wondering why the water in the iron pot was boiling. So you guys were going to scald the locusts?"

A'le laughed and ran home carrying the basket.

Ba Shi happily followed An Yue to the black soil. He looked at the tomatoes on the tomato tree in the field. He ran over happily, opened his mouth wide and prepared to bite.

An Yue shouted nervously: "Eighty, don't bite! Don't bite!!"

The eighty-open mouths were frozen in mid-air, and looking at its eyes, it seemed that the dog's brain was still thinking about something.

An Yue quickly ran to Ba Shi and said seriously, "Ba Shi, tomatoes are very sour. If the puppy eats them, his teeth will fall out from the sourness!"
